HYDRA still had control over her. I had escaped, but they'd separated us so I couldn't get to her.

They stopped looking for me last year.

I remembered the man I fought on the bridge, and when I dragged him from the river. His name is Steve, and he's Captain America. My best friend.

I wondered what they were doing to Y/N. Forcing her to find me, bring me back or kill me. Maybe putting her back in cryostasis. I've been looking for her too. Maybe she's free and trying to find me.

But with no memory of me, I wondered how she'd do that.

A lot had happened here in Vienna. A bomb went off in a United Nations meeting, and I tried to help as many people as I could. It felt good to be thanked instead of hunted and banished.

"Ma'am, Hi, I'm James, and I wanna help you, okay?" She was stuck under a large piece of debris from the building, and I knew if I hadn't done anything she would die.

No one else could die on my account.

I lifted the debris, feeling my sleeve rip at the amount of strain, and easily pulled her out, carrying her to an ambulance. "Thank you so much, James."

"It's no problem, ma'am."

I think this was the most I've spoken to someone in 70 some-odd years.

This was not okay.

SHIELD had my twin. They all went after her, something about her setting off the bomb in the meeting.

Now, they'd deal with me too. She was my twin sister, they wouldn't touch her without me being there.

I guess Steve had the same idea, because he found me at my apartment and brought me to where she was held.

"Okay, I'm gonna need you not to go Soldier on me, Alright?" I looked back to him. "If they touch her I can't promise you that."

"They won't. We've got her in heavy duty security." I was eyed by everyone in the building as Steve walked me to the office the were held in.

They had also caused a lot of damage in Bucharest.

"Hello, Ms.Barnes. I am here to evaluate you for SHIELD, alright? I am only going to ask a few questions." I watched with my arms crossed, completely silent as everyone else.

She looked the same as when I last saw her. Broken and confused. She was processing the things that triggered memories, and I could see the fear in her eyes at the unfamiliar man.

"I'm going down there." I notified the Captain, and made my way to the room. I was scared for her. Scared that they'd hurt her.

Oh, how I'd never forgive myself.

I broke into a sprint when the lights went out, bursting into the room, and regretting it as soon as it happened.

"James?" I stared at the man, watching as he smirked and continued to read them out. I pulled at my hair, dropping to my knees. Whimpers turned to yells, banging turned to shattering and all my thoughts disappeared .

"Soldier?"

"Готов выполнить." And the cycle began. Steve rushed in, looking to Zemo on the floor and the girl he loved gone.

"Get up." Zero still whimpered for help, until Steve slammed him against the wall. "Who are you? What do you want."

"To see an empire fall."

"Steve!" He growled softly before knocking Zemo out. "Where?"

"Down." As soon as he answered, Steve was thrown across the room, back hitting glass, some pieces cutting his face.

"Bucky, this isn't you, okay?" Steve stood, spinning around Bucky, directing his fight towards where Y/N had gone.

They said nothing, just threw punches, Steve ending up against the elevator.

"Bucky, listen to me!" His arm whirred softly and he became stronger, pushing Steve down the elevator shaft-Bucky, at the moment, feeling no remorse.

"You could at least remember me, Natasha wheezed, gasping once she was released. She barely watched as the girl they'd captured kicked his ass.

Her metal arm matched his, and was only a small amount stronger. But somehow she had the advantage, her hands were around Bucky's throat in a matter of seconds and his arm was pinned down by her foot.

"Y/N!" Steve called, stopping once he'd seen the position they were in. "Y/N, stop. You don't want to hurt him."

Natasha watched as Bucky's fidgeting slowed, and his fists uncurled. "Steve, we're losing him!"

"Y/N! You're safe!" Natasha immediately noticed the change in her grip, but she wouldn't take any chances. Grabbing one of the poles Bucky had originally been fighting with, she knocked Y/N out first, then Bucky, making sure neither of them were still...well, not them.

"You didn't have to-"

"Would you like to have lost your life to one of your best friends?"

Steve stayed silent.

"Didn't think so. Let's get them out of here."
