Talia and Steve were hiding behind the glass that separated them for the lead pirate who was contacting someone.
"On my mark: 3...2...1..." Steve counted down. The countdown was for the hostages. Rumlow had located them and were awaiting orders to fire at the pirates from behind the doors that kept everyone hostage.
After the signal was given, and the Pirates were shot down Steve and Talia then jumped into the window, after breaking it with the shield, running towards the leader in a surprise attack.
The moment the leader saw them he was quick in kicking them both down to the ground, taking off running out of the room. Talia saw him quickly taking off, jumping up to run and catch him, leaving Steve.
"Come on Stevie!" She said running after him.
"Never gonna catch on."

Talia could have just ran in front of him with no problem, but this ship was very small in some places like the hall she was currently running through.
He began speeding up down the halls which meant Talia had to step it up. Speeding up, trying to match his speed she then jumped up grabbing on to his back.
The two slid a little out of the hallway to an open area. Talia rolled off him putting distance between the two, staring at him.
"I don't hit women." He spoke in another language holding his hands up in defeat.
"That's too bad." Talia said understanding , and running up to him. When almost in distance she jumped up kicking him across the face.
He stumbled back falling to the ground surprised by her strength. Her vision began turning blue, indicating her eyes changed colors, as she felt the energy flow through her and aim towards him.
With her energy manipulation she grabbed him as the energy wrapped around him and flung him towards the wall.
While he was flying to the wall she then proceeded to yank her gun out aiming it at him. As she fired at him he ducked and avoided each bullet she shot.
She heard Captain behind her, briefly turning around. Turning around seemed to be a bad idea because she ended up getting kicked in the stomach. She fell to the ground looking up seeing that the leader had moved from her to now captain, and began watching them fight.
"I thought you were more than just a shield."
He called out to Steve as they were fighting. Steve looked at him narrowing his eyes then looked at Talia handing her his shield.
The leader then ran to Steve and started kicking. Steve was good at fighting as well and knew how to block all of his attacks. The man started to get tired from throwing the punches just to be blocked. He began doing backflips putting distance between the two, trying to think of a strategy.
Talia looked at him and began rolling her eyes at how stupid he was. This fight had gotten boring to her. Probably because she wasn't in the action. Standing up she watched the leader get ready to run for captain again. Aiming Steve's shield, she used her manipulation for a little extra power. Pulling back she then pushed forward watching the shield make a full loop around the men before hitting the leader in his head then bouncing back off him, throwing him threw a door and knocking him out.
Steve turned to her wondering why she did that, but she just tossed Steve his shield beginning to walk towards him.
"He said he thought you were more than just a shield. He didn't say me." Talia said walking past Steve to a door that the man had just fallen in.
Opening the door to investigate what was behind it, she was then met with Natasha Romanoff on the main computer.
"Well this is awkward." Natasha spoke smirking at us.
"What are you doing?" Steve asked walking forward to Natasha.
"Just backing up the hard drive."
Talia followed Steve to the big computer looking at a loading screen. She looked down at all the computer mechanisms then back up at the screen to see maps and codes.
"You're saving SHIELD intel? I though our mission was to rescue hostages?" She asked Steve.
"It was." Steve's spoke angered.
"No it was your mission. Not mine." Natasha said taking the hard drive out of the computer beginning to walk away.
Steve grabbed her beginning to tell her how she jeopardized the mission, while Talia was looking at what Natasha was trying to save.
What's project insight?
Talia was about to open a file to see what it was, when she began hearing something. Looking over to the door she saw the pirate leader running out quickly throwing something in the room, then running back out.
"Guys!" Talia yelled getting Steve's attention. Steve quickly turned around hitting the now identified bomb away from them. All three ran quickly to the nearby window jumping through to protect theirselves just as the bomb blew up pushing them more.
The three of them panted slowly getting up in pain from the explosion. Talia looked at the two of them shaking her head at them before falling back on the ground.
"Okay...that was my fault." Natasha panted.
"You're damn right..." Steve angrily said getting up leaving the two girls behind.

{Next morning}
"Last thing. Repeat after me...Hail Hydra." The man told Octavia as she sat in a chair in the middle of the room strapped down.
"Hail Hydra."
"Good. Today's lesson is finished. Dismissed." He said unstrapping her.
"Wait my partner, he hasn't come back. Shall I find him?" Octavia asked showing signs of worry in her voice which angered the man.
"To the cells now!" The man ordered forcibly.
* * * * *
Talia woke up looking at the ceiling. Every night it was the same thing. Dreams about Hydra. Except they were her memories, and she hated it.
She slowly sat up, stretching her arms and legs before getting out of bed. Talia had two places to sleep. One in the Avengers tower, and another at SHIELD's. Her second room was no longer in the lower floors of SHIELD's headquarters nor in the secret bases, so looking out the window gave her more to see. When she looked out she saw the bright sun smiling at its beauty.
"Morning sunshine." A voice said behind her. She turned around to see Steve in a plain white shirt and a leather jacket.
"Hey, Steve...About yesterday, are you alright?" Talia said looking over to him, wondering. He was really angry yesterday and he had refused to talk to her yesterday.
"Yeah I'm fine, I was just frustrated, but I talked to Fury yesterday. Don't worry about it. I wasn't mad a you Talia." He said wrapping his arm around her securely.
He then removed his arm away continuing to look out at the scenery from a far. She looked down at his attire seeing that he was dressed to go somewhere.
"Where are you going Steve?"
"We are going to a museum." Steve said walking over to stand by her now looking out at the sunset with her.
"There is something I wanna show you."
"Sure okay. Give me like 5 minutes..." Talia said leaving the balcony to go find clothes.
