Tony attacked first. And the fight began between them. Steve was trying to protect Bucky, and Stark was trying to kill him.
"No!" Marcella yelled. Slamming her fist against the window.
Zemo had already won.
She ran towards the door to get back to them but it was slammed shut and Marcella couldn't even nudge it open a tiny bit. She ran back to her window to see why and she saw something heavy had fallen in front of it. Marcella assumed it was one of them who did it to stop her from getting involved.
Marcella watched as everything started crashing down. Bucky took some serious beatings from Tony and Steve was trying to stop them.
Marcella had no choice. She opened the door on the opposite side, the one Zemo escaped from and and ran. She ran through the long hallway and up the stairs. She could hear walking in the tunnel ahead of her. It was distant but she could catch up. Her heart beat was loud in her chest as she reached the exit of the tunnel and kicked down the door. It smacked to the ground and all the cold air was drawn into the tunnel.
Zemo was on the phone. He looked behind and started to walk farther into the snow.
Marcella pulled out her gun and shot him in the lower leg. Not fatal, if she didn't let him bleed out. She walked up to him, watching him fall onto the ground and sit down against a rock.
Each step hurt her, but each step brought her closer to the Command Book. "Give it to me," she ordered him.
He breathed in hard and winced as he brought his shot leg closer to himself. Zemo stared up at her, analyzing her face. She looked different than she did in the leaked Hydra files. She looked stronger, healthier, but still had the same sad eyes. Zemo pulled out the book from his jacket pocket and threw it on the ground at her feet.
"I never accounted for you, Marcella, in my plan. Not that it changed anything."
Marcella picked up the book and slipped it into her coat pocket. Zemo had a gun in his hand. He had yet to use it and Marcella had a strange feeling he wouldn't waste a bullet on her.
She could hear the sounds of the men fighting. She could hear a painful yell, and her heart broke recognizing it. But she also recognized something else. The sound of someone else's quiet steps. Marcella looked down at Zemo and took a few steps back, lowering her gun. She turned to look over his shoulder at the person coming through the snowy winds.
T'Challa's claws were sharp and ready as he looked at Zemo and Marcella with steady eyes. He saw everything. After following Tony Stark, and landing his jet somewhere hidden, he followed and listened to Bucky all the way to the Room. He heard everything Zemo had said and realized how wrong he was about everything.
