Panic was the first thing that came to Bucky when he woke up.
Surveying his surroundings, he realized he was back in the HYDRA facility he normally stayed at.
"Morning, Soldier."
He looked over to see a white haired man with glasses standing on the other side of the cell bars.
"You've caused us lots of trouble, Soldier."
"Where is she?" Bucky demanded in a low, husky voice.
"That girl is the least of your worries." The man chuckled, finding the Winter Soldier's worry over another person amusing. "You have successfully brought me the Captain America and the infamous Black Widow's sister, Anastasia Romanova, though she's in critical condition. And I want to thank you for that."
"Drop the sarcastic shit. I'm not stupid." Bucky snarled. "I would've agreed to come with you if she wouldn't've pulled that stupid move. Let her and Steve go and keep me."
"You see, I can't do that." The man shook his head. "Simply wiping Captain Rogers' memory and creating him into the murderer you are will make HYDRA even more powerful. But with Ms. Mackenzie we can do all sorts of fun things with her. Her body is pure, free of any serums like you and Rogers. There's been a few scientists anticipating on their first human experiment-,"
"Touch her and I'll-,"
"You'll what?" The man cut Bucky off. "You are in no position to be threatening me, Soldier. You've clearly forgotten-,"
A bone chilling, muffled feminine scream came through the walls.
Bucky's heart was racing. He knew it was her.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HER!" He shouted, pulling at the bars on the cell door. They moved a little, but not as much as he needed them to.
"Oh relax. They're only testing her tolerance in pain with how soon she decides to cooperate. She's an extraordinary girl, Mr. Barnes. The doctors have been going at it for almost three hours and this is the first scream we've gotten out of her."
"I'm going to kill you." Bucky glared so hard at the man that the man was honestly a little frightened by it. But he didn't show it.
"I'll show you a little clip of what your so called 'girlfriend' has been going through." The man looked to one of the agents near him and nodded.
The agent moved towards the door to Bucky's cell and held a tablet up so Bucky could see the screen.
The video started and Bucky had to hold his breath.
Mackenzie was in a metal chair, hands and ankles strapped tightly to the metal thing. The side of her neck was bandaged where she had been cut.
"This is how it goes, Mackenzie." One of the doctors said. "You answer my questions and you won't be hurt as bad. You don't answer my questions and I'll make you crave death."
"Then I guess we'll be here all day cause I'm not answering shit." Mackenzie spat on the doctor's face since he was so close to her.
Bucky would've chuckled if the situation wasn't bad. Her spunk and sarcastic attitude were just a few of his favorite things about her.
The doctor's hand went flying to her cheek, the force making her head turn. Fingerprinted red welts rose immediately on her cheek.
"That felt great." She mumbled sarcastically.
"Were you the one to give Barnes access to Rogers?"
"I'm having this odd craving for Italian food." Mackenzie put her head back eyes looking at the ceiling.
