Sam drives us with Steve beside him, I was sitting behind Steve and next to Sitwell...who was panicking. "Hydra doesn't like leaks."

"Then why don't you try sticking a cork in it?" Sam rolls his eyes. 

I lean forward to look at Steve, "Insight's launching in 16 hours. We're cutting it a little bit close here."

"I know. We'll use him to bypass the DNA scans and access the helicarriers directly." Steve nods.

"What? Are you crazy? That is a terrible, terrible idea." Suddenly someone lads on the roof and rips Sitwell out of the car. My eyes widen as I notice a metal arm.

I look out again as I see him pull out a pistol, climbing back onto the roof and over to where I was sitting. Just as he starts to shoot, I dive up into Steve's lap. Pulling his head down as the Winter Soldier continues to shoot.

Steve pulls the parking break, causing the soldier to fall off and onto the road. For the first time I see the Winter Soldier, he stares at our car as I aim my pistol at him. A truck slams into us from behind us, causing me to drop my Pistol.

The soldier flips back onto our car as I reach down for my gun, he punches through the windshield and yanks out the steering wheel.
"Shit!" Sam yells. I finally grab my gun and shoot the roof as the soldier jumps off our car. I hold onto Steve as the truck hits us again, making us start to flip.

Steve grabs Sam and I, "Hang on!" He breaks the car door just as the car flips, we slide down the road and look back as the truck stops. I pull Steve up, he pushes me aside as the soldier shoots a grenade at Steve, sending him crashing down below. I run around a van to avoid being hit as they all fire, I peak out and shoot back at them.

I flip over the medium and into oncoming traffic as the Winter Soldier shoots a grenade at me. I flip out of the way of a car and slide across a car hood, running away from the gun fire. I leap off of the edge as he shoots a grenade at a car, shooting a small grappling hook onto the bridge to stop my fall. I stop running and look up to see the soldier looking for me, I shoot both pistols, landing a shot in his glasses. I then run off and hide beside a truck, watching as he shoots down below.

I shoot back at him, taking cover as he grows angry. Once I'm out of ammo, I drop my guns and run down the street and into the crowd.

I think of a quick plan and take out a small recorder, recording my voice and setting it behind a car. I look around and quickly duck down behind another car as I wait.

"Taking fire above and below expressway. Civilians threatened. Repeat, civilians threatened. I make an LZ, 2300 block of Virginia Avenue. Rendezvous, two minutes." The recording says as the man steps up. He rolls something under the car, I stand as it explodes, crawling on top of the car and leaping off to kick his gun off.

I crawl onto his shoulders, Tying a wire around his hand and throat, he backs up and hits me on a car, grabbing my arm and flipping me off into another car. I quickly take out a small disk as he picks up his gun, throwing it at his metal arm to disable him as I run.

"Get out of the way! Stay out of the way!" I scream as I pass civilians. I gasp as I am suddenly shot in the shoulder, falling to my knees and hiding against an abandoned car as I put pressure on my wound. The man jumps into the car and aims his gun at me, before he can shoot, Steve jumps in and attacks him.

I eventually crawl in front of the car and grab the soldiers gun, standing up to see his mask was off...he was Steve's friend Bucky Barnes....who died a long time ago. As he goes to shoot Steve, I shoot a grenade next to him, he escapes just as the Strike team arrives and forces us to our knees.

I scream out as an Agent yanks my arms back, cuffing me and pushing me into an alley and into a van with two guards. I sit beside Sam and stare at Steve as he looks at his hands sadly. "He looked right at me like he didn't even know me."

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

"Zola. Bucky's whole unit was captured in '43. Zola experimented on him. Whatever he did helped Bucky survive the fall. They must have found him and..."

"None of that's your fault, Steve." I shake my head.

"Even when I had nothing, I had Bucky."

I lay my head back as I continue to bleed out, starting to feel weak. "We need to get a doctor here. If we don't put pressure on that wound, she's gonna bleed out here in the truck." Sam says angrily to the guards.

The guard next to me takes out their Baton, suddenly hitting the other guard and electrocuting them. I smile as the guard is reveled too be Maria. "That thing was squeezing my brain." She looks at Sam confused then at Steve and I. "Who is this guy?"
