Location: Refugee Camp

Zayrah, Bucky, Sam and Zemo walk into the nearest refuge camp to gather information about Donya Madani

"Shame what's become of this place. When I was young, we used to come here for fabulous dinners and parties." Zemo pauses. "I knew nothing of the politics of the time, of course, but I remember it being beautiful." He says.

Zayrah looks at the GRC pamphlet on the wall, surely they aren't doing what they had promised.

"We're gonna take a look around upstairs. Sam?" Zayrah says. "Yeah." He replies

"See what you can find out here. And keep an eye on him." Sam says to Bucky.

Zayrah and Sam leave.

"I'll stay out of your way." Zemo says and Bucky continues to state at him.

Sam and Zayrah climb a flight of stairs. They enter a hall and find people scuttling away.

"Hey, kid." Sam calls out, but the kid had already left.

"Excuse me. You heard of Donya Madani?" Zayrah asks the receptionist.

"Um... No. Sorry, no." She says and runs off.

"Sam?" Zayrah points at a medicine box.

"It's their logo. The handprint." She says as they both walk into a corridor.

"Hey! Donya Madani?" Sam calls out to a girl, but she too walk away closing the door

"Hey, wait." Zayrah says but all in vain.

"Shit!" Sam mutters.

The pair walks into and sees a man talking to a kid. "Excuse me." Zayrah calls out. The man stands up."

Do you know a woman by the name of Donya Madani? She was a refugee here." She says.

"We're not refugees, for we have nothing to seek refuge from. We're internationally-displaced persons, for what it's worth, and we don't trust outsiders." The man says.

"No, I understand. I'm not from here, but I have a pretty good track record of helping out." Sam says.

"I know what happens when people say they're going to help out." The man pauses for a moment. "Nothing." He says. "The Global Repatriation Council promised to send more teachers, supplies. That was six months ago." The man says.

"What's your name? Maybe I can make a call." Sam asks.

"I know who you are. But I can't trust you. I'm sorry." The man says and leaves the room.

"This is a disaster." Zayrah mutters.

"Maybe James has something?" Zayrah says. "Yeah let's go." Sam nods and both of them walk back downstairs.

Once they reach the ground floor they see Bucky standing and watching Zemo. A little girl was whispering something to him.

Zayrah walks up and touches Bucky's arm lightly. "It's starting to feel like a dead end." Zayrah says.

"The hell is he doing?" Bucky says furrowing his brows.
