BUCHAREST,

Bucky was walking around in civvies at a fruit store with a hood over his head. He goes towards one of the markets and buys a few plums. He then spoke to the vendor in Romanian, "How are they? Are they good? Give me six, thank you." he says.

In a black cap and casual jacket Bucky walks along scanning around everyone he passes by. Across the street he spots a twenty-something vender at a news-stand watching him. Bucky glances away, then looks back at the vender who's still watching him. The vender runs from his kiosk as Bucky goes over and picks up a paper. On the front page there are surveillance-photos of a man and the head line: 'Winter Soldier cautat pentru Bombardmentul din Viena'. Bucky glances around tensely, knowing what's coming. He made his way to his apartment about to get an unexpected visitor.

In his dark blue, armored suit with his shield on his arm Steve is in a small apartment, Bucky's apartment.

He looks around, there's a mattress with disheveled covers and various bits of cheap looking furniture. The kitchen and bedroom are in the same room. Steve then sees a notebook on top of the fridge. He picks it up and opens it. There are tabs of varying colors sticking out from amongst the pages.

He looks through the pages and sees a picture of himself from back in World War ll. Sam (Falcon) then speaks in his comms, "Heads up, Cap. German Special Forces, approaching from the south."

"Understod." he replys. He then knows simeone is standing behind him and he know who it is. He turns around to face Bucky, his best friend. Bucky simply just stood and watched him, not saying a word. "Do you know me?" Steve asks him.

Bucky still stared before finally speaking, "You're Steve. I read about you in a museum." he says.

Sam then speaks in Steve's comms, "They've set a perimeter." Steve sets the book down onto the ta le next to him before trting to calm Bucky down.

"I know you're nervous. And you have plenty of reason to be. But you're lying." Steve says, taking 1 step closer.

"I wasn't in Vienna. I don't do that anymore." he tells Steve.

"They're entering the building." Sam warns again.

"Well, the people who think you did are coming here now. And they're not planning on taking you alive." Steve warns him again while taking a few steps closer.

"That's smart. Good strategy." Bucky... compliments?

"They're on the roof. I'm compromised." Sam warns again as armed soldiers rush up the stairs.

"This doesn't have end in a fight, Buck." Steve warns again.

Outside the door a cop readies a battering ram.

"It always ends in a fight." Bucky says, readying up.

"5 seconds."

"You pulled me from the river. Why?" Steve demands an answer for. Bucky takes off his glove, revealing his metal arm.

"I don't know." Buck answers withput emotion.

"3 seconds!"

"Yes you do." Steve says.

"Breach! Breach! Breach!" Sam exclaims.

A grenade suddenly crashes through the window. Bucky kicks it to Steve, and he smothers it with his shield, leaving the grenade to explode under the shield.

"Schieß die Tür auf! (Shoot the door!)" a GSG-9 Soldier yells. The cop slams the battering ram against the door. Bucky shields himself with the mattress against someone attacking from the window. He blocks the door with a table as cops swing in on cables. Steve pulls the rug from under a policeman, sending him flying. Bucky slams another policeman into the wall.
