i was sat in a full metal room for about 15 minutes when the door opened again to reveal, dr Zola and Schmidt.
"Miss labrown, what a pleasant surprise." Schmidt smirked at me. It was Schmidt but it also wasn't at the same time. His face was gone replaced with a horrifying red skull. I didn't reply so he carried on talking.
"Dr here, was telling me about how he was suspicious of you and thinks you have a powerful secret that can really benefit us."
"I don't have a secret. i came here for one reason and one reason only to see james but now i guess i'm here to get james." i told him sternly.
"I don't like liars, Miss labrown. Also, who is james we don't have anyone called james here."
"yes you do. where else would he be. he died falling of that cliff i came to see his body. it's not there so you have it."

He paused look at me with a 'are you serious' look.
"i really thought you was smarter than this, labrown." he told me.
"i would like you to follow me." we both got out off our chairs and i followed him and Zola. We walked out into the corridor and continued down. We walked through a garage full of tanks, planes and cars. After that, they opened some doors. Through them was a hospital looking corridor with two doors at the end with a circle window through both.

We stopped just before we got to the door and questioned myself for doing this.
"Now, it seems we both have lied to each other here. I'm going to tell you the truth now. Well show you. But it only seems fair if you tell me the truth. Doesn't it? You don't have to tell me now." he sighed.
"Prepare yourself miss." Zola told me. I stood there worried and confused. Schmidt opened the doors and nothing could have prepared me for the view in front on me. My james. Sat trapped in a chair. He look exhausted. Pain, hurt and discomfort was all i could see in his features.

I couldn't move. Zola walked in. Then so did Schmidt. James moved his head and looked at me. His eyes did not look the same. Two guards came up to me and grabbed my arms. They took my wrists and handcuffed them at the bottom of my back. Zola had put a chair right in front of james and the guards sat me in it.

"I brainwashed him. He can't remember you. He probably never will. We also dosed him with super soldier serum. Just like your friend Steve, that's why he looks much bigger." he said calmly like this sort of thing was normal.
"Why?" i asked with tears brewing in my eyes.
"He's going to become the best assassin in the world." he has this whole thing planed out.
"How-how did you get him? I thought he died." tears were begging to dropped but i need to be strong.
"Zola found him and the bottom of the cliff clinging onto life and brought him here." he answered. Zola then moved forward and moved his left arm sleeve up to reveal a metal hand and on going arm. My mouth fell open a gape.
"His arm suffered and terrible much with his fall. So, we replaced it. This will make him a bit better fit for the best assassin look anyway and he will be much much stronger." Zola explained. His shoulder looked so sore.

James sat there looking at me with no emotion or life behind his eyes.
"Now labrown. Your secret. If you tell us you will get the easier way out. If not we will torture it out of you. You. You are going to be Mr barnes assistant. So, you're never gonna leave our capacity."

i didn't say anything. i was yet again questioning myself as to whether or not i should tell. i could handle whatever torture they wanna throw at me. But i don't know if i wanna escape. i'll never be able to successfully escape with james, i can't just leave him in this hell hole. i looked up to Schmidt. He had a devils smirk painted on his mouth.

"So, what's it be polly?" saying my name sent shivers down my spine. i didn't know what to say to him. If i should say something to him. Clearly he didn't like that as he punch me across my face. i manage to stay stable on my chair.

"i'll tell you. But not in front of him." i told him as my face burned from his punch.
"i thought you were stronger then that labrown. One punch and you cave. But i guess your wish can be granted. Take her to my office." He told his guards. They grabbed me again and carried me away from james. Out the doors, his eyes followed me. it broke my heart.

I wish I could tell him it wasn't the punch. That I had caved much earlier, when I saw my darlings face. But there was no need. I have been in hostaged so many times I know the drill now. It will be so much easier for me to just do what they say. As long as James is okay, I'm okay. As long as he is alive, I'm here. I already said goodbye to my old life what more could I lose, apart from my love James.

They carried me back through the garage. Through a separate corridor leading off and up some stairs. Then we were in his office. It's was massive, spacious. They sat me down in one of the seat facing Schmidt.
"Let's skip the small talk labrown. We know you have a powerful and oh I hope very powerful secret. So if you want that pretty face of yours to still look pretty by the end of today. I suggest you start talking."
Shivers ran down my spine at his comment, he stared at me waiting for me to talk.
