After boys making sure that they had all the necessary weapons on them, they and you settled in the car. Bucky was driving, you were sitting next to him. Steve and Michael sat on the backseat together. Your emotions were all over the place. You felt anger, fear, sadness, anxious, nervous. Your mind was thinking of the worst scenarios but a hand on your shoulder snapped you out of your thoughts. You turned your head to see Steve, gently smiling at you. "Are you okay?" As you were about to answer he spoke again. "It was a stupid question, sorry. Just know that whoever is being kept hostage is gonna return home safe and in one piece. It's a promise." You smiled at him as you nodded. You muttered a small "thank you". It made you feel a little better but your brain still wouldn't calm down. It just can't. Not in this situation.
Your eyes moved to look at Michael. He just gave you a small smile and a nod. You turned to look at the road again.
Rest of the ride was silent. Only sound that can be heard was muffled noises of cars passing by. You were fidgeting with your fingers. Bucky side eyed you and let out a small sigh. You didn't even hear it since your thoughts were louder than everything else surrounding you.

Not so long after the car stopped and guys got out. Steve opened your door and offered you his hand. You took his hand and got out of the car. Steve, again, smiled at you. You nodded at him with a nervous smile.
You looked around you. The place was dark but not abandoned. It had lights surrounding it, a trash can, doors. Multiple doors. This place seemed like sun didn't even want to shine on it. It made you more nervous. You were almost terrified.
You heard a sigh behind you. You looked behind you and saw Michael looking at doors. "So? Which door?" he asked. Bucky was visibly confused. Steve looked at the door and suggested "That one. Let's go there." He pointed at the fourth door. You looked at him. "Why? How do you know it's the correct one?" He looked at you and answered. "None of us knows the correct door, right? I don't think it would hurt to enter that one." Well, he wasn't wrong. "Okay then. Let's not waste our time." Bucky spoke up. Michael began to walk towards it and you guys followed him. He kicked open the door, he was holding his gun in his right hand, near to his chest. Your grip on the gun tightened as you saw a stage light shining on a chair Wanda sat on. You gasped as you examined her more. She had a black eye, her hands and legs were tied with a rope, she looked like she was dead. As you were about to run to her you heard a thud noise along with a click noise. Bucky looked back and he saw that door was shut. Your eyes searched for the reason of the thud noise. All the lights turned on. You closed your eyes for a second because of the sudden brightness. When you opened them you saw a red haired woman standing with some men behind her. Bucky's eyes widened. "Natasha..." he sighed. "Who?" Michael asked. "Natasha. Natasha Romanoff" woman answered his question. She had an evil smirk on her face. You frowned. Was she the one who spoke on the phone? She looked at you. "Aw sweetie, the way your voice trembled when we spoke on the phone." She chuckled. You didn't know what to feel other than anger and fear. "What do you want Natasha?" Bucky roughly said. Natasha clicked her tongue. "Now, that's not the way you talk to your ex is it?" Ex..? What does she want? you thought. "Answer my question dammit!" Bucky's voices echoes as he demanded an answer. "You" Natasha simply said. "You simply forgot about me and married to her!" She pointed at you with her gun. You took a step back. Michael walked in front of with his back facing you. He was shielding you. You peeked through his arm to look at the scene in front of you. Your eyes were looking between Wanda and Natasha. Wanda looked up to you. Her eyes were screaming for help. Your heart ached. You just wanted to take her and run away. Your attention, as well as Wanda's, turned to Bucky and Natasha when Bucky angrily said "I don't love you anymore! It's not that hard to understand. I moved on and I'm happy with her, you should move on too." She shook her head. Her tears threatened to spill but she held them back. She always did that in front of people. No crying in front of men was her number one rule. She still loved Bucky. Her heart beats for him and only him to this day. She turned to Wanda and punched her in the face. Wanda groaned in pain. Your held on the gun tightened as your hand went up only to be stopped with a gentle touch. You looked at your right to see Steve holding your hand. "Killing won't solve anything." He whispered. Your hand made its way back to your side. Steve nodded. Your attention went to Natasha. She looked at you. "Wanda or Bucky?" She asked. Your heart skipped a beat. You looked between Bucky and Wanda. Everyone's eyes were looking at you. "I-I.." you stuttered over your words. Michael couldn't take it anymore. He shot the man standing behind Natasha. He fell down on the cold floor. Her men started shooting at the guys and you. Steve quickly held your hand and took you away from Michael's back. Bucky and Michael hid behind the walls as you and Steve hid behind a larger wall. They didn't even aimed at Steve only once or twice.
Bucky and Michael were continuing to shoot the enemies. You saw a path leading to Wanda. You looked at Steve, who already was looking at you. You pointed at the way and he nodded. Both of you sneaked up behind Wanda's chair. She let out a gasp when she felt a hand touching her arm. You quickly shushed her and she weakly nodded. After Steve cutting the ropes he took her into his arms and quickly carried her to the exit with you following behind. You looked at Bucky and Michael. "Go! Get out!" Michael screamed at you two. You guys ran outside and placed her in the back seat of the car. You sat next to her and held her hand. Steve began to drive to his house. When the road seemed unfamiliar you asked him where he was taking you. "Oh my home. I don't think they would come looking for us there, they don't know where i live." You nodded and took a look at Wanda. Your hear hurt seeing her in pain.
After arriving to Steve's home, you placed her on the couch. Her eyes closed as she went to sleep. Yes, her body hurt but she was too tired to care. You looked at the armchair and grabbed the blanket on it. You opened it and gently placed it on her shivering body. Meanwhile Steve got a phone call. He answered it. You heard an angry woman voice coming from the other side. It sounded familiar. He just nodded and hung up. "Is everything okay?" You asked in a calm and low voice. He smiled and nodded. "Yep just um work problems." He chuckled.

You began to worry about Michael and Bucky but luckily got a phone call from Michael. "Where are you?" He asked. "We're at Steve's home. Are you guys okay?" "Yeah we're fine. I'm sure Bucky and Natasha will solve the problem between each other...i hope at least." He sighed. "Okay then. Are you coming here or..?" "No, i'm going home but if you ever need me you can always call me" You smiled a little. "Thank you for everything Michael. You're the best." "Don't thank me Y/N. We're friends after all." After saying "bye" back and forth, you hung up.

You looked at Wanda. A tear escaped your eye. Steve walked to you and wiped it off. "It's okay, she's okay now." He hugged you. You return the warm hug. You sniffed and hid your face in the crook of his neck. You pulled away when you heard  a knock on the door. Steve opened it and Bucky walked in. He looked at you and asked with the worry in his voice "Are you okay?" You gave him a reassuring smile and nodded. His suit was dusty and dirty. He sat on the armchair, clearly not caring about the dirtiness of his suit.

She was now with you. Yeah the problem wasn't solved yet but at least she's safe.
