18 May 2016; Joint Counter Terrorist Centre, Berlin, Germany
The SUV entered inside the Joint Counter Terrorist Centre Building. Bucky's pod was being carried away by a forklift. Steve, Sam, T'Challa and Andrianna gets out of the SUV. Behind them another SUV entered and they turned to look and saw Grace getting out of it. Their attention was shifted across at Bucky who didn't spot them. With Sam and T'Challa Steve, Andrianna Grace approached Sharon who was standing with a diminutive, grey-head man.
" What's gonna happen to him?" Steve asked about Bucky. "Same thing that ought to happen to you. Psychological evaluation and extradition," said the man. " This is Everett Ross, Deputy Task Force Commander." Sharon introduced.
" What about our lawyer?" Steve questioned. "Lawyer. That's funny. See their weapons are placed in lockup. Oh, we'll write you a receipt." Ross said gesturing at Sam's suit being put in a box, along with Steve's shield. "I better not look out the window and see anybody flying around in that." Sam said, annoyed that his suit was taken. " Ross then looked at the unfamiliar face. "And you are..." He said looking at Grace. " I am an ex-S.H.I.E.L.D agent, you can confirm my identity with Miss Romanoff." Grace replied in a calm yet strict tone.
As they followed Ross and Sharon, Steve looked back and caught Bucky's eye. He gave him a reassuring glance, whoever the later just kept a neutral face. " You'll be provided with an office instead of a cell. Now, do me a favour, stay in it?" Ross said as they were walking on a covered sky walk." I don't intend on going anywhere." said T'Challa. From the opposite side of the bridge Natasha was walking towards them. She stopped when she noticed Grace, who gave her a little wave. She was surprised to see her. However, she quickly mustered a neutral expression and walked towards Steve, " For the record, this is what making things worse looks like." She spoke. "He's alive." Steve replied.
The bridge led them to another part of the building. As they arrived inside a control room, they saw Tony talking on his phone," No. Romania was not Accords-sanctioned. And, Colonel Rhodes is supervising cleanup."
" Try not to break anything while we fix this." Natasha said to Steve then dragged Andrianna with her to a secluded area.
"Okay. So now tell me, what the hell is happening?" Natasha asked utterly confused by the turn of events. Andrianna looked straight in Natasha's eyes and told her about the events that took place at the Third Avenue Bridge, when she got to know that her mother was alive. "Only Tony knew that my mother was alive and I told him not to tell you guys. Because I hadn't seen her at that time and then... Then we were working on to find her, amidst which I was kidnapped. When I woke up, I was in a cell and my mom was in it too. Then there was a fight and I lost control and fainted and the rest you already." Andrianna hid the fact about her relationship with Bucky.
Natasha was listening intently, after Andrianna completed her story, she asked, "How did Grace survived?" Andrianna let out a sigh, looked at the floor and replied, "I don't know myself. There are a lot of secrets among us." Natasha nodded her head in understanding was about to go and confront Grace but she stopped when a thought struck her. "Why did you get yourself involved in this mess. I mean, he is Steve's friend and Sam was with him so he helped him, but why do you always get yourself involved with him.?"
"What exactly do you want me to tell you T'asha."
"You know exactly what."
Andrianna took a deep breath and said, "Fine I'll tell you the complete truth. But will you be able to handle it?"
Natasha looked at her with a confused expression on her face,"Wh-" She was cut off by Andrianna, "He is my father."
"He is your what!?" Natasha whisper yelled. Her expressions changed from shock to understanding. "I..." Andrianna trailed off as she noticed Grace behind Natasha, "...I think you both need to catch up, since she isn't interested in talking to me. Maybe you can get some answers." Andrianna walked out giving a side-eye to her mother, the latter had a neutral expression on her face.
When she came out of the corner, she was guided by a staff member to a glass-walled office overlooking the control room. Tony looked rueful. She knew she had to talk to him, he deserved to know it. She entered the office, "Hey." Tony was pulled out of his thoughts by Andrianna's voice. He looked at her, his jaw ticking in annoyance and anger. "You love being a rebellious teenager, don't you? I told you to sign the accords, you become rebellious run off with Steve and Sam. I-"
"I did come back to sign it. N-"
"Don't cut me in between young lady. So, where was I- Ah! - I told you not to do anything without my permission, but you again went off with those two idiots and got yourself arrested at the age of 15." Andrianna just stood silently, she knew he needed to blow off some steam. After he was done the room fell silent, Tony was looking at Andrianna with his arms folded, while the latter found her muddy boots the most interesting thing in the world.
".. You found your mother."
"Yeah." Andrianna replied still not looking at him. "So, what now?" Tony asked. She finally looked at him and said, " I don't think she has plans of staying with me. She won't talk to me, or even look at me... as mother should when they finally have a chance to be with her child."
"The officers saw her using... some sort of powers, Ross said that she will have to sign the accords and stay in police custody, and a lot of paperwork... Did you know that she had-"
"Superpowers? No. I don't even know, if the things that I do know about her are true or not." Andrianna took a deep breath and sat on a chair beside Tony. "I'm sorry..."
Tony raised an eyebrow at this, "You? Apologising? To me? It must be my lucky day."
"I am apologising, because I got you in trouble, not for the things I did. I don't regret trying to save my parents." Tony's head snapped towards her, "Wait... Did you say? Your... parents?"
Andrianna looked at him and said in a firm tone, "The winter soldier is my biological father." She looked at him for his reaction. Tony leaned back in his chair and started rubbing his forehead with his left hand. Andrianna stayed silent, looks like staying silent is becoming her new hobby. Tony pinched his nose then looked at her and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"No..." She paused for a few seconds then said, "Not at the moment." Nodding his head he left the office followed by Andrianna.
