Broken

Five

I wake open my eyes to hear ringing and see nothing. Steve was struggling to push the cement off of us but I help and throw it away from us. I see Nat and help her up. She's unconscious but I feel a strong pulse still. "I'll carry her, you make the path out of here." I order Steve. He does so and we run off. I catch a glimpse back to see SHIELD moving their way to where we were so I pick up my pace.
We sneak to our truck, which was luckily not surrounded. I place Nat in the back seat, still unconscious and move myself to the front. and we take off. With the sudden calmness all my feelings rush over me.

Steve left to the final Hydra Stronghold and I could only work from base after being incredibly injured on the train, losing Bucky. I hear sound from outside my tent and pull out my gun before I'm feel a cloth on my face. It's becomes dark and fuzzy before just darkness

I can't breathe. My chest is on fire and my peripherals are fuzzy. "Alice.." Steve sounds like he's far away but he's only right next to me. Somethings not right. Am I dying?

"She's a weapon of mass destruction."
"But she'll be useful for our cause."

It was their plan all along. Break SHIELD from the inside. "Alice..!" He still sounds far away but I can't do anything. I cant move or breathe. I notice that Steve pulls into a mass of woods on the side of the street. He walks around and opens my door. "Talk to me." He says sounding a little clearer. "I came too in the middle of my blackout to ask for help. They wouldn't have believed me. I wouldn't have believed me. But Pierce told Fury to go along and take me. That's why I got pardoned. That's why I'm here. I wasn't saved I was transferred." I say breaking into tears, speeding through my sentences. My mouth not able to catch of with my brains. "Calm down..."
"No no no no.." He's placed his hands on my shoulders but I push him off and fight back. "HEY!" He shouts making me freeze and look at him, his hands on my shoulders. "This isn't the time for this breakdown. Pull yourself together." He orders. The shock factor definitely brought me back to earth. "We will get this all sorted out. But I need to know that you won't do anything stupid." He says sternly. I only nod my head. A look of pity crosses his face before her pulls my head down to kiss my forehead before closing my door. He carefully pulls out of the woods and back onto the road.

I was Hydras weapon. They made me with the tesseract and placed it back in the ocean for no trail to go back to them. It was stupidly smart plan. Tesseract goes missing they're the first they'd dig deeper into. Didn't want them finding out they were right under their noses. I reach back to Natasha who was still stable. Just sleeping. "You've checked on her 3 times now and haven't said a word in the almost 2 hours we've been on the road." Steve says but I was silent. "The suns coming up. Your favorite." He says. I hated this pity he had towards me. I wasn't just going to forget how he treated me just a week prior. Or the beginning of last month. "You don't want conversations. Fine." He gives up. That's a little more like him towards me.
I hear Natasha stir awake in the back. "We're out." I hear her notice. "Thanks to Alice, we got out in time and was able to take the truck back." Steve says. I can feel both of their eyes on me. It was burning into my skin. "Can we stop staring at the freak show?! Please?" I spill out. I can see Steve look back to the road. "It speaks." Steve says frustrated. I look back at Natasha who was rubbing her leg. "How are you feeling?" I ask. "Like a million bucks." She answers with a small smile. "So you talk to her but not me?" Steve says possessively. "I'm sorry I felt like I was having a heart attack and you yelled at me you just get over it!"
"That is not what I said, you always put words in my mouth."
"You screamed in my face and told me that it wasn't the time for my situation. My world fell from underneath me-!"
"Yours wasn't the only one!"
"One of us got a mild concussion and would really appreciate the yelling come to an end." Nat says from the back, making us both keep our mouths shut. "Where are we going, anyways?" She asks us. I look to Steve, good question. "Looks like back to DC but the whole everybody is out for us kinda makes that a shitty plan." I say looking directly at Steve.
"Hopefully, a friend who isn't for killing us."
