[disguised as a civilian dressed in a hoody, Steve goes back to the hospital to retrieve the flash drive from the vending machine but sees it's gone, then Natasha appears behind him chewing some gum, in anger Steve pushes her into a room]

"How did you know it was in there?" Ginny asks the blonde assassin. "It was the only gum packet that looked like that in the vending machine. It was kinda noticeable."

Natasha turns to Steve. "You're lucky it was me who found it too." Steve nods, knowing she was right. If it was anyone else who I found it, it would've been trouble.

Steve Rogers: Where is it?

Natasha Romanoff: Safe.

Steve Rogers: Do better!

Natasha Romanoff: Where did you get it?

Steve Rogers: Why would I tell you?

Natasha Romanoff: Fury gave it to you. Why?

Steve Rogers: What's on it?

Natasha Romanoff: I don't know.

Steve Rogers: Stop lying!

"Can you stop pushing and yelling at my girlfriend Rogers?" Bucky glares at his best friend. Steve sends an apologetic look to Natasha who waves him off.

Natasha Romanoff: I only act like I know everything, Rogers.

Steve Rogers: I bet you knew Fury hired the pirates, didn't you?

Natasha Romanoff: Well, it makes sense. The ship was dirty, Fury needed a way in, so do you.

Steve Rogers: I'm not gonna ask you again.

Natasha Romanoff: I know who killed Fury. Most of the intelligence community doesn't believe he exists, the ones who do call him the Winter Soldier. He's credited with over two dozen assassinations in the last fifty years.

Many shuddered at the thought of one person killing so many before remembering about Voldemort. Tom sighs. Even though he wasn't himself he couldn't help but feel the guilt of all the lives he took.

Bucky looks to the Slytherin wizard, feeling sympathy. He knows what it feels like to be used. Having no control over your actions. Having guilt eat you alive as the nightmares hunt you until you couldn't take it anymore. He had a feeling he was going to talk to Tom soon.

Steve Rogers: So he's a ghost story.

Natasha Romanoff: Five years ago I was escorting a nuclear engineer out of Iran, somebody shot out my tires near Odessa. We lost control, went straight over a cliff, I pulled us out, but the Winter Soldier was there. I was covering my engineer, so he shot him straight through me. [she pulls up her shirt to show him the scar on the side of her stomach] Soviet slug, no rifling. Bye-bye bikinis.

Bucky turns to Natasha and holds her hand. Guilt of hurting her is eating him alive. "I'm sorry любовь." (Love)

Natasha she makes their foreheads touch. "It's alright James. I know it wasn't you."

James glares at Bucky. He really wanted to teach him a lesson for hurting his woman.

Steve Rogers: Yeah, I bet you look terrible in them now. [there's a hit of a smile from Natasha]

Natasha Romanoff: Going after him is a dead end. I know, I've tried. [Natasha holds up the flash drive] Like you said, he's a ghost story. [Steve takes the flash drive from her]
