Third POV:

Silence.

That was all you heard in the back of the van everyone was in as they were guarded by two guards. Natasha was silently wincing in pain from her wound.

Talia was shocked that James recognized her, and Steve was a little angry at Talia for not telling him that this entire time she knew Bucky was alive.

Sam was just quiet because he didn't know what to say through all of this.

"Steve please?" Talia whispered but Steve continued to ignore her. Steve just couldn't believe it. Bucky was suppose to be dead but now everything was setting into place. Zola made Octavia into a new being. Why couldn't he do the Talia for Bucky. Steve partially felt like this was his fault.

Sam was still super quite but then had noticed that Natasha's wound was bleeding pretty badly as she winced out in pain once again.

"We need to get a doctor here. If we don't put pressure on that wound, she's gonna bleed out." Sam stated strongly.

One guard pulled out their electro rod looking as if they were about to hit Sam with it for speaking. Suddenly instead they twisted their arm so the rod was backwards and hit the guard next to them then kicked them in the head knocking them out.

Talia looked at the guard strangely trying to think of who it was suit. The guard then removed their helmet to show none other than Maria Hill.

"Ah, this thing was squeezing my brain." Maria said trying to push some of the hair out of her face.

"Hey there." Talia smiled. Maria turned to Talia giving her a nod in return along with a smile. Maria then turned to the side noticing Sam sitting there looking at her.

"Who the hell is this guy?"

The five had escaped out the bottom of the truck, and were now being transported by Maria. Talia had still continued multiple times to talk to Steve but ended up giving up when he just refused to answer.

Maria soon stopped the car opening the back door to allow the four to come out with her. She had led them to and abandoned building, what it looked like, taking them inside where people then suddenly ran up to the five quickly.

"GSW. She's lost at least a pint, maybe two!"

"Let me take her!" A man said rushing up to Natasha, but just as he was about to take her off Maria stopped him.

"I think he'll want to see them first." Maria said causing Steve, Natasha, and Octavia to look confused.

Maria told them to continue to follow her as she lead them down the long hallway of the building they were in. She then told them to stop as she removed a curtain. Behind the curtain was a hospital bed, and within that hospital bed was none other than Nick Fury. He turned his head to look at the three, slowly trying to sit up before speaking.

"About damn time."

"Lacerated spinal column, cracked sternum, shattered collarbone,perforated liver, and one hell of a headache." Fury said explaining all of his injuries.

"Don't forget the collapsed lung." The doctor working on Natasha said.

"Oh and let's not forget about that."

Talia was standing by Fury, away from Steve since he refused to talk to her. She was staring at the heart rate monitor while thinking.

"How are you alive? All of us saw you die." She asked.
