It's Forbidden

I Don't Feel-

Aspen and Bruce were on comms the entire time the team had captured the members of the terrorist origination. It took them two days. There were over forty members they had to capture and it wasn't easy. Some put up a fight, others didn't. The team was okay, nobody got hurt, but Aspen would be lying if she said she hadn't been worried the entire time. Bucky had been surrounded by criminals who wouldn't think twice about killing him, and he didn't exactly have the whole team who had his back. He had most of the team, obviously not Steve, but all it takes is one person for everything to go wrong and for someone to end up dead.

Aspen was sweating bullets. She didn't feel good. At all. She felt like she was going to pass out. She felt like she was going to throw up. She was dizzy, light headed, and she felt hot. Like she had a fever. She tried to hold it together as best she could, hoping it was only stress. Hoping if she could hold out until Bucky got back, everything would be okay because he would be back and he would be safe. Her anxiety would go away, she wouldn't be as worried and everything would be fine because she had him. But that wasn't the case.

The team was on their way to the raft. There being over forty people needing to go into the raft and the entire team, and the only way being able to get on the raft was via helicopter, they had to take several of them. One member of the team on each helicopter along with however many criminals would fit and they could handle. It was a process getting everyone their safely, especially since it decided to storm on the way there.

It was pouring rain. Lightening and thunder. Aspen could hear the storm and them having to go in the middle of the storm, surround by just sea, water, scared her. Anything could happen. She knew she was worrying too much, she always worried too much. But she always told her self, that considering their past, everything that has happened too them, she thought she had every right to worry. Anything and everything could and would happen to them if they weren't careful. They were lightening rods for bad things. They always happened to Bucky and Aspen if they could.

The team got to the raft safely. Each helicopter landed separately. One was unloaded at a time. The team took their time, unloading one criminal at a time, locking them up safely, and going back out and getting the next. They did this for each criminal until all of them were safely locked away in the raft. every helicopter was taken back, the team loaded into two instead of all separating. Steve, Tony, Bucky, and Sam were all on the same helicopter. Wanda, Nat, Clint, and Thor were all on the other helicopter. All headed back to the compound.

Bruce and Aspen got off comms. Nothing was left for them to do since the mission was complete. Aspen knew Bucky was safe. And she was relieved. He was on his way home to her. But she still felt terrible. Her stomach hurt now. So bad she could barely stand. She felt clammy. She thought everything would be okay when she knew Bucky was safe. She knew he was safe. So she wondered why she was still feeling this way. But she tried to hold it together still. Because maybe having him in her arms, having him with her physically would make it all okay.

Bruce noticed the change in Aspen. He couldn't figure out what was wrong by just looking at her but he thought maybe it was just stress or maybe just her worrying. Which would have made since. He also didn't want to push her. Make her tell him what was wrong, but he didn't want anything to happen to her on his watch. Because he didn't know if whatever was going on was serious. Maybe it was just a flu or whatever. He didn't know. His morals were at a crosswords. He wasn't sure what exactly he should do. He just watched her closely, he made up his mind he would ask if her condition, whatever it was, seemed to progress.

Bucky was worried about Aspen too. Because he knew she was worried about him. He hated how stressed and how worried she was for him. He loved that she cared, but with everything they went through, he knew she was too worried. He wanted to get to her, but they wouldn't be there for another two hours, he had to do something, he needed to ease her mind. So he pulled out his cell phone to call her. He still hated technology, but for Aspen, he would do anything, and it was just dialing a few numbers to call her. And he did exactly that.

She heard her phone ring and picked it up quickly. She answered on the first ring. She didn't need to see it was Bucky because she knew. She knew him. And he knew her. She picked up the phone, and she couldn't hang on anymore. She was in too much pain. She felt faint. She felt sick. She hurt. Everywhere she hurt. Bucky didn't know how she was feeling, he warned to soothe her. "Asp we're on our way back." Bucky told her as soon as she picked up the phone.

Aspen's voice broke. She started crying as soon as she heard his voice. "Buck somethings wrong." She cried to him. Bucky didn't know what to do. He couldn't do anything. He was on the helicopter and she was at the compound. His head was spinning and he felt a ping in his heart, he was worried, he didn't know how he could help her or what to do. "I don't feel good." She said, crying harder. Bruce was there, and watched her. He thought, once she got off the phone, he would run some tests to help her, figure out what was wrong.

"Bruce is there, have him check you out. I'll be home soon." Bucky whispered to her. "Hang on baby." Bucky told her. She nodded and brought her phone down from her ear, she hands hung up. She looked at Bruce, wiping her tears. "Bruce...I-dont...I don't feel-" She stuttered. But she couldn't finish her sentence. She lost consciousness and fell to the floor.
