Zemo sat in his cell. Rain stepped in front of Bucky. How could she? He was furious.
A low whistle echoed down the cell block, "Boy oh boy... You sure did it. I don't often get a call from sweet cousin Sam. He doesn't like to be reminded his great aunt got herself hitched to a carpet bagger."
Zemo couldn't see who spoke; when suddenly a pale face went "boo!" in the dark making him jump
The pale face laughed, "Oh betcha shit your pants huh Zemo?"
Zemo backed up, "You the hell are you?"
The pale face backed up and made a bow, "Wade Winston Wilson.... I'm also called Deadpool now and then."
Wade smiled and sat across from Zemo, "See you made a huge miscalculation."
Zemo shook his head, "And pray tell what is that?"
Wade grinned, "You were betting that Rain was as timid and docile as she looks. That is like thinking you can swim across the Illinois River."
Zemo looked confused Wade waved him off, "Never mind... My point is you and Fisk and hell even sweet Rain herself all assumed she was a pawn to do what ever she was told, but she is the opposite. She's a mother fucking queen."
Wade stood and checked his watch then saw color drain from Zemo's face, "Right on time. Normally I don't like to use poison, but cousin Sammy asked for a clean death. You never even saw me creep up on you in the halls."
Zemo couldn't speak. He slumpt forward as Wade chatted, "It'll look like natural causes.... Oh look at the time! My Golden Girls marathon will be starting soon. TTFN Tata for now!"

Rain sat up from a nightmare. Steve woke up with her, "Sssh it's ok honey. I got you."
Rain clung to him, "Zemo... He..."
Steve kissed her temple, "Zemo can never hurt you again I swear."
Rain swallowed, "It felt so real Steve... Are you sure what if..."
Bucky came quietly and exchanged a look with Steve who nodded, "There is no what if. Zemo died... An apparent heart attack."
Bucky brushed her cheek, "We didn't want to upset you when we heard a few days ago."
Rain stared up at him, "Is he really dead?"
Bucky smiled then kissed her softly, "I promise baby."
Rain blinked a few tears away before relaxing, "It's over."
Steve and Bucky cuddled her, "Nothing will ever hurt you or our baby Rain." Steve soothed her.
Bucky rubbed her baby bump, "That is a solid promise."
Rain yawned, "I love you Steve and I love you Bucky and this little beanie so so much."
Steve kissed her temple, "Close your eyes angel."
