Zayrah, Bucky and Sam follow Walker into an old warehouse.

"We have to talk to him before taking shit further." Zayrah says walking alongside the boys.

"What do you mean?" Bucky asks.

"As much as I hate him, James. John would never do such a thing if he is in his senses." Zayrah tries to defend Walker.

"That's well understood. Why you suddenly defending him, when it's unnecessary?" Bucky asks harshly.

"I'm not defending him, James. I'm just..wait..Where is this coming from? I'm just saying we have to try to talk him into it. Why are you lashing out like that?!" Zayrah retaliates.

"Guys. Buck, Zayrah is right. I know where you're getting at. But she's doing what makes sense." Sam says.

Bucky stares at Sam, but finally gives in.

Zayrah walks ahead of the boys looking around the warehouse.

"Seriously man? You doubting her? She's not interested in him and you get all toxic over her?" Sam whispers to Bucky.

"Yeah. That was a mistake." Bucky sighs.

"Damn right it was. Make sure you apologize to her." Sam says.

"Found him, boys." Zayrah says over comms.

"Ground-floor, second last door." She directs.

The men soon join her.

They enter the hall and find Walker crouched down in the ground, perching on the shield.

"Time to go to work." Walker says and stands up. He begins to walk towards the three.

"John." Zayrah calls. Bucky mentally rolls his eyes.

"You guys should see a medic. You don't look so good." Walker says pacing around.

"John. Stop" Zayrah says walking towards the man.

"What?" John asks the blonde.

"You saw what happened, Jade. You know what I had to do. I killed him because I had to." He says to Zayrah.

"He killed Lemar!" John shouts at her face making Zayrah step back.

"He didn't kill Lemar, John." Bucky says pulling Zayrah back.

Walker huffs.

"Don't go down that road. Believe, me it doesn't end well." Bucky says trying to feed sense into the man.

"I'm not like you." Walker spits.

Zayrah clenches her fists and attempts to charge at Walker, but Bucky stops her.

"Listen, it was the heat of the battle. Okay? If you explain what happened, they may consider your record." Sam says in a calm voice. Walker looks at the ground.

"We don't want anyone else to get hurt." Zayrah adds.

"John.." Sam pauses. "You gotta give me the shield, man." He finishes.

Walker lifts his eyes up at the three as he realises what they are trying to say. "Oh. So that's what this is. You almost got me." He says.

"You made a mistake, John." Zayrah says calmly, trying to get this done peacefully. She knew she was kidding because it was very much known that, that's not gonna happen.

"You don't wanna do this." Walker says and looks at the three.

"Yeah we do." Bucky replies after seconds of silence. He lunges at him first, so does the other three. Walker attempts to hit Bucky with the shield, who is return blocks it with his arm.
