In a hospital, in a room guarded by two armed agents, we see Steve waking up in a bed to hear Marvin Gaye's "Trouble Man" playing with Sam sat next to his bed.

Steve Gruffly says "On your left."

Sam looks at Steve and smiles. "So.... where's your girlfriend?"

Steve sits up quickly. "Avinna!" Struggling to get out of the bed.

Natasha comes in and pushes steve back down. "Steve she is okay. We had divers go into the water. They got her body and put her into a glass tank. She is safe. She just asleep."

Steve relaxes.  "Bucky.... he saved me..."

.... a couple days later.....

Wearing sunglasses and hoodie, Fury meets Steve Avinna and Sam at a cemetery at his own grave.

"So, you've experienced this sort of thing before?" Fury looks at his grave.

Steve Smiles "You get used to it."

Nick Looks to us. "We've been data-mining HYDRA's files. Looks like a lot of rats didn't go down with the ship. I'm headed to Europe tonight, wanted to ask if you'd come."

Steve Thinks for a moment "There's something I gotta do first."

Nick looks to Sam "How about you, Wilson? Could use a man with your abilities."

Sam Puts his hand up in defense "I'm more of a soldier than a spy."

Nick Looks to Avinna "how about you?"

"I must return home. I do not want to stay in one place for long. Thanos the destroyer of worlds may come for me if I continue to stay here. And he is someone you cannot kill."

"Alright then." Nick finishes.

Sam Avinna and Steve shake Fury's hand.

"Anybody asks for me, tell them they can find me right here." Fury looks to his gravestone and walks away.

then Natasha joins Steve Avinna and Sam. "You should be honored, that's about as close as he gets to saying thank you."

Steve Looks to Natasha "Not going with him?"

Natasha "no"

Sam then questions "Not staying here?"

Natasha shrugs "I blew all my covers, I gotta go figure out a new one."

Steve chuckles " That might take a while."

Avinna bluntly says "maybe you should tell the truth."

Natasha Looks to steve "I'm counting on it. That thing you asked for, I called in a few favors from Kiev." she hands Steve a file titled "дело No 17" (file No 17)] "Will you do me a favor? Call that nurse."

Steve Looks to Avinna then to Natasha "She's not a nurse."

Natasha Rebuttals "And you're not a SHIELD agent." she kisses Steve on the cheek and turns to walk away. "Be careful, Steve. You might not want to pull on that thread." as Natasha walks away Steve opens the file, which is about Bucky and the information regarding his Winter Soldier transformation, Sam walks over to Steve.

Sam "You're going after him?"

Steve Looks to Sam "You don't have to come with me."

Sam Smiles "I know. When do we start?"

"You guys are to cute." Avinna hugs them both.

"Are you really leaving?" Sam looks down at her  

"Yes sam. I must. I cannot endanger you guys no more." I hug Sam. Sam walks away and Avinna looks at steve. "I'm sorry I didn't discuss it with you."

"It's alright. Life happens and these past months. Haven't been the easiest. We ran into some pretty crazy things." Steve takes Avinnas hand. "I love you Avinna. But we both have things we must do."

"I love you too steve Rodgers. Man out of time." Avinna Smiles and kisses Steve. "I will see you again. I swear. Now go find your best friend."

Steve and Sam step back away from Avinna.

"Come back okay?" Steve smiles.

Avinna Smiles back. "Heimdall! Open the gates in which I can return home. For I wish to be with my brother again."

That bright light that shines brighter than the sun takes Avinna away.
