"Hermana," Andy calls Angel from inside, where the TV is showing American news. They've been in a villa on the mountains of Bali for the past three months, and Angel is outside playing with Knight and Diana. Before that they were in the Philippines, in Palawan, for four months; then New Zealand for eight, Cambodia for nine months. It pays to have a private plane and a young pilot whose life you saved.

"Yes, Andy?" Angel walks in from the garden, dressed in a peach sleeveless maxi dress with lace trimmings and beige rubber slippers, her hair is braided, "What is it?"

Andreana, in a light blue tank top and aqua board shorts, points to the TV from her seat on the large bamboo sofa. Angel looks at the news and gasps.

"That's him, isn't it?" Andy asks, increasing the volume.

SHIELD Base, under attack. Captain America and company trying to bring down heli-carriers. Unidentified man with silver arm spotted.

Footage of The Winter Soldier fighting with Captain America on the deck of one of the carriers flashes on the TV and Angel has to sit down.

She nods at Andy in answer, and just stares at the TV.

"We have to go back in a week, Andy," Angel whispers, never taking her eyes off their satellite television.

"WHY?" the girl asks, twirling her chocolate brown hair in her fingers, "It's not like you are going to go find him, right?"

Angel looks at the young woman who was once the little girl who cowered at her brother's kill site. Andreana smiles knowingly at her, "I'll call Toby and tell him about it."

"Thanks babe," Angel whispers as Knight and Diana ramble into the villa. It was time to go back. HYDRA would be laying low for a while after this try at world domination, she was sure of it, and someone needed to find that Soldier. She knew she was the only one who could do that. So she was just going to go to the highest bidder again, and this time, she was hoping it would be SHIELD who called her first.

She still needed protection, more for Andy than herself. If she got on SHIELD's good side, she might be able to convince them to keep Andy under wraps, make sure of her safety. She stood up and turned off the TV, then turned to her two dogs.

"Time to pack up, kids," she said as she petted them both.

The Soldier woke up from a restless slumber, his metal arm was hurting him. The wires short circuited every minute or so, and the part where it connected to his body seemed to be burning from the inside out. But he had to keep going. He sort of remembered the man on the ship, the one who called him Bucky. He was the same man on the train. But he had to keep going.

He had to keep running. He stole some clothes from out of a dumpster, and burned his Kevlar vest. She would find him, he was sure of it. She always did.
