Morana's POV

With every cell in my body, I try to contain the shaking of my legs as I nervously sit in the back of a black van with Winter and some guards, waiting on my orders. The van jumps up with the speed we are going towards the moving traffic at the bridge. My black, leather suit hugs my bruised skin as I slip on my gloves, ready for a fight.

"Get ready, soldiers. We are nearly there." The driver calls back to us.

Winter tenses beside me at his words, still staring at the wall in front of us. Discreetly, I grab his gloved fingers, holding them in my own and reassuring him. Even though, my own heart is beating out of my chest.

"Winter Soldier, you're up first. Boss says we need Sitwell out of that car and gone."

Winter nods his head in the direction of the driver, still abiding by his orders of staying silent. Some of the guards stand up, opening the back door of the van and motioning with their heads for Winter to walk out, which he does. The guards follow him, but before they can shut the door behind them, Winter looks in my direction. With his face covered by his mask, I can only see his eyes, but they scream with fear and determination. I slightly nod my head at him, telling him all will be okay and that if shit hits the fan, I will be there to help him.

He follows the guards down the road as the doors shut behind them. Through the small, clouded window on the back door, I can see them sprinting towards moving traffic. The guards run up to a bridge, letting Winter walk by himself towards a specific car. When he gets to it, he jumps on the roof, punches the window and pulls out a body. He throws Sitwell behind him, into the sprinting cars. He gets taken by the cars, dragged along the highway and killed under the wheels. With his pistol, he shoots into the roof, walking towards the front of the car.

Suddenly, the car breaks, throwing Winter across the road. My body jumps up and I prepare to run towards him, but with the stare and groans of the driver, I'm halted. However, Winter flips in the air, stopping his fall with his metal hand, pushing his fingers into the road, and making indents in the concrete. Still in the middle of traffic, he stands up and stalks at the car. Another car hits the back of the car, pushing it towards Winter. But, he jumps up on the car, breaking the front window and ripping out the steering wheel. Winter jumps onto the hood of the other car as it continuously hits the target's car, making them lose complete control.

But, before they can ride off of the bridge, their car door rips off and the three passengers slide down the road. Winter jumps off of the car, grabs his gun and aims at the three passengers, scaring them into hiding. A guard orders me out of the van and to fight whoever gets in mine and Winter's way, so I do. Winter runs for a man holding a round shield, aiming at his head. With his occupied, I stalk towards a red-headed woman.

She aims her gun at me, but before she can pull the trigger, I hold my hand out in front of me and open my hand, aiming my palm at the sky. The road beneath her feet starts to crumble, ultimately breaking and creating a hole, but before she can fall, she jumps to the other side of it. With my hand, I show her my palm and use a wind to blow her back towards the hole, wanting her to fall back into it. But, before she can fall, someone jumps on my back, knocking my focus. With me distracted, the woman runs away from the hole and me.

I grab the legs of the person on my back, throwing him on the floor in front of me, where I can see him. He's wearing goggles and wings on his back. Before he can get away or fight me, I show him my palm and create a fist, white-knuckling my fingers. I focus on the feeling of his blood flowing through his body and abruptly stop it, making him go pale white. His blood circulation begins to fail him and as he's at the break of death, he looks at me pleadingly.

With his life in my hands, I watch as his eyes go bloodshot, but before I can kill him, an electric shock runs through my entire body. As my legs collapse, the same red-head woman grabs the man by his hand and pulls him to his feet, running away with him. As they run, I rip the taser off of my arm, throwing it onto the floor as I stand up again, pissed. But, as I look around, I can't see the two of them anywhere. From the corner of my eye, I see Winter struggling to fight the man with the shield, so I sprint towards him.

I kick the man in the back, forcing him to the floor as Winter aims his gun behind me. He pulls the trigger, shooting the woman behind me, and stopping her from interfering. As she lies on the floor, helpless, the other man runs towards me and Winter. Winter is fighting the man with the shield, so I force a wave from under the bridge to rise, storming the streets and wiping out the other man, taking him with it back to the river.

With the other two gone, I join in on the fight with Winter and the shielded man. They use guns and knives, but when I get the man in a headlock, he drops his knife. I force him down to his knees and Winter stalks towards us, ready to attack. But, the man grabs his shield, throwing it hard behind him and hitting my head, knocking me back. I let go of him and stumble back, holding my head. Winter and he continue to fight as I blink vigorously, trying to get my vision back. Just as it does, I get ready to run towards them again, but before I can, the man rips Winter's mask off, revealing his face.

"Bucky?" The man asks, stunned.

Looking at Winter, he seems too confused and raised to react, so I blow a wind at the man, making him fly backwards and giving us an open window to escape. We run away from the fight and towards the van, jumping back in and waiting for the guards to come back. When they do, we speed down the roads, leaving behind devastation.

Winter and I are instantly thrown into our cell as soon as we get back to the hideout. The door shuts behind us, leaving us anxious about the upcoming punishment. Winter sits with his knees tucked under his chin as he breathes heavily, trying to calm himself down. I shift closer to him, stroking his arm and looking into his eyes.

"Who's Bucky?" I ask.

He shakes his head, looking distraught and terrified. I open my mouth to speak again, but before I can, the door slams open, hitting the wall violently. Guards grab us, throwing our bodies out of the cell and they drag us down the hallway. They force us into the hospital wing, strap us into chairs and call over the doctors. They walk over with the usual syringes, preparing to inject us, but then the doors open, interrupting them. The boss walks in, wearing his usual grey suit, and he struts towards us.

"Change of plans, Doctors. They are going to need a little bit more than an injection for what they did." He smirks. "I gave you one simple instruction, and you still fucked it up. So, in retaliation, we need to set an example. Doctors, get the electric chairs ready." He orders.

Guards pull us from the restraints, forcing us down under the helmets of the electric chair and placing them on our heads. Before they press the buttons, Winter and I look at each other, knowing exactly what's about to come. We give each other a reassuring nod as best as we can, but we know it will do nothing.

They press the buttons, shooting electric shoots through our bodies and straight to our brains. As the pain storms every part of my body, it shakes my skull and hits my nervous system, making me shake and convulse. With every passing second, I can feel my memories being stripped away from me involuntarily.
