Sam's POV

"Cap" I said into my earpiece. No response seemed to come through which was strange given that they were supposed to keep on contact throughout the entirety of the mission. Still in the air, I looked down at the HYDRA base with a small village that sat at the bottom of the valley whilst the base sat at the top. "Maybe I should take a closer look" I muttered to myself as I prepared myself lower to the ground to look around the village. As I made my way down there, I saw the streets to empty. I landed on the ground as I attempted to speak into my earpiece again, "Hey Cap, there seems to be no sign of...well anybody around" All that I could hear on the other end was static. "Hello?" I said as I went to a nearby home and the door swung open without even a kick, just my hand gently resting upon it causing it open. It looked as if no one had lived inside for decades. Dust covered tables and chairs, some chairs even knocked over. "Cap...I think there's something wrong here" I said again, getting the sinking feeling that whatever this bad feeling he was having had something to do with the fact that this was all a trap.

 I made my way outside again as I ejected my wings,  I flew towards the HYDRA base, as I did this I began to see a sort of blue energy around the entirety of the base. "What the-" I said, before I could process  what I was flying into, I hit the force field, I groaned in pain as I came through to the other side, my wings on the verge of self destructing as flames and smoke poured out of it's engine, I tumbled towards the ground, landing on my stomach. "Yep, that's a broken nose" I sat up as I looked around where I had landed. It looked as if a fight had broken out here, as several soldiers laid around on the floor. "What the-" I got up from the floor, clutching my stomach as I attempted to look for a way out. I took of my fiery wings as I limped around, suddenly a door from the corner of the room opened. A few henchmen came running in as this happened. Great, some ass to kick, he thought to himself getting into my fighting stance. "Hey fellas" I remarked in a playful tone. The two men stood confused as if they weren't expecting his presence.  I ran up to the two as I kicked one in the chest and the other one I punched right in the throat, in a complete movement. The one I had kicked put his fists up as he threw a punch, which I caught but his other hand collided with my face. Which sent me stumbling backwards, the one I had punched in the throat I had noticed was on the ground gasping for air, that was one down at least for now.  The one who had punched him across the face, wasn't backing down as he kicked me in the chest, payback I guess. Now on the floor, I crawled backwards away from him as he pulled out a small blade. "That's really not fair" I added. 

He smirked as he now ran towards me, using both my legs I used as much power as I could muster to get back onto my feet as I got up from the ground. As soon as I did this, I had to manoeuvre my way around the blade that came at me from different directions, I grabbed the hand that he held the blade and attempted to turn it back on him, it was a struggle for power until I kneed him in the chest once more, which sent him to the ground. The knife now in my hand, I spun it around before putting it into my pocket and making my way towards the exit. The one I had punched in the throat attempted to get up but I put my leg on his chest as a warning, I shook my head as I looked down at the now terrified man. 

What the hell did I fly into?

Steve's POV

Natasha and I stood in the security camera room in an attempts to locate any of the remaining team members but it seemed as if they were having no luck. "The last we saw of Wanda was when Crossbones carried her out, but there's no cameras in that hallway" Natasha explained. I leaned over the desk where the screens stood as if looking at the visuals closer would make it easier to spot any sign of them. I didn't mean for this to happen, I wanted to keep everybody safe. I wanted to keep Willow safe. It was her first mission and now she's missing. I failed, we failed. "Stop beating yourself up, Rogers" Natasha resting a hand on my back in an attempt to comfort me.

"It was my responsibility to keep us safe, to keep her safe...and I-I failed" I explained as I now stood up from the desk, Natasha following my movements. Her hand still on my back as if it were a way to ease all my worries completely but it didn't my mind was still racing with anxious thoughts.

"We didn't know what was going to happen" Natasha said, "We'll save the day, we always do" She added. I still avoided her glance. She gave up as she removed her hand, I turned to look at her. "Nat" I said as I reached out for her hand, grabbing it I told her. "Thank you, really, I appreciate it"She smiled slightly. 

"Are you flirting, Steve Rogers?" Natasha now smirked as she stood against his chest. 

"I was just saying thank you" I said, as she stood her head only just reaching my shoulders. I couldn't help but smile as I looked down at her mischievous smile. 

"I wish you were...flirting" Natasha as she turned back around to see the screens, it looked as if she saw something as her eyes widened and she walked quickly towards to what she saw. She pointed. "Look it's Wanda" 

"What about Ace?" I questioned as I made my way over to her. 

"If we find Wanda, we can easily make our way to Willow" Natasha as she pulled out her gun and begun to reload, as if getting ready to fight. 

Suddenly, the door handle moved. Natasha and I snapped our attention towards the door as I pulled out my shield that hung on my back and Natasha aimed her handgun at the door. Whoever it was, wasn't giving up on getting into this room.

Sorry, I was gone for a while but I had process what happened in M.O.M. But I'm back and ready to write. Sorry there was literally no wanda or willow in this chapter but I feel like it was important to expand upon these beloved characters in this chapter, but also an excuse to write in their perspectives bc I love them all.
