"He looked right at me, like he didn't even know me." Steve mutters.

I refrain from comforting him because I know that it's not going to work. Not when it's about something so close to his heart.

"How is that even possible? It was, like, 70 years ago." Sam questions in disbelief.

"Bucky's whole unit was captured in '43. Zola experimented on him." Steve states.

"Whatever he did must've helped Bucky survive the fall." I theorize.

"They must have found him, and-"

"None of that's your fault, Steve." Nat ensures.

"She's right" I agree.

He stays silent for a few moments before mumbling, "Even when I had nothing, I had Bucky."

I place a reassuring hand on his shoulder. I'm pretty positive that it's not doing anything, but at least it'll make me feel better.

I can see Sam glancing back at Nat's wounded shoulder.

"We need to get a doctor here," he demands, "if we don't put pressure on that wound, she's gonna bleed out here in the truck."

The guard flashes a taser baton at us.

"That wasn't a good idea." I mutter dryly.

I get a glare from all the people in the truck.

"I'm just saying." I raise my hands in defense.

"Just shut up!" The guard demands.

Wait, I recognize that muffled voice.

'Maria Hill'

Just then, Hill stabs the other guard with the stick, electrocuting him into unconsciousness. With an extra kick to the head, provided by moi, he was definitely not going to interrupt our escape.

Everyone else's faces twist into confusion, but I've already gotten it down.

Maria reveals herself by removing her helmet.

"Ah, that thing was squeezing my brain." She wipes stray hairs away from her face, "who's this guy?"

She refers to Sam sitting next to Nat.

I just let out a little laugh, "you've got a lot to catch up on."

"Come on, let's get out of here." Hill gestures.

She places her baton through the floor of the large vehicle, before carving a large hole.

-------------------

"GSW, she's lost at least a pint." Maria announces through the tunnel.

Steves wrapped tightly around her body, applying pressure.

"I'll take her." A man yells, running towards us.

"She'll wanna see him first." She waves him off.

Sam and I share a brief look of confusion before my senses kick in.

'Nick'

"Who is she talking about?" Sam whispers in my ear.

"Nick Fury you slick bastard." I shake my head and laugh in disbelief.

-----------------

"About damn time," he mutters. "Lacerated spinal column, cracked sternum, shattered collarbone, perforated liver, one hell of a headache." Fury lists.

"And don't forget about your collapsed lung." The doctor removes his gaze from Natasha's wound to add.

"Oh, let's not forget that. Otherwise, I'm good." Nick shrugs.
