"So the infamous Winter Soldier is here to talk" she speaks and opens her eyes,

"How did yo-"

"You know, we've met before" she speaks standing up and walking to the panel of glass where Bucky Barnes stands beyond. Bucky gives her a confused look before, "There was something that I was taught... it was a while ago now... what was it" she speaks leaning on one leg and tapping a finger to her lips, "What did my father teach me" she mutters and Bucky just stands there watching through the glass. He does remember her now, her stance is recognisable, the way she talks and acts around others. Everything.

"You're right, I do remember you" speaks Bucky, stepping closer to the glass containment his face inches from the glass, "Olive, is it?" he questions, "Look how you've grown" he finishes and her demanor changes as the tables of the game flip sides.

"Now I remember," she speaks a smirk growing, "желание (longing)," Bucky's eyes grow wide with shock and fear as he rummages his pockets, "ржaвый, (rusted)" he quickly fishes out a pair of ear plugs, "Семнадцать, (seventeen)" and quickly rolls them up, shoving them in his ears, "Рассвет, (Daybreak)" hands cover his ears, making sure he cannot hear those words, "Печь, (furnace)" he backs away from the glass, eyes still wide and backs into a small control panel, "Девять, (nine)" he lifts up a tab and below the glass containment opens a hatch which leads straight down and to the ocean, "добросердечный, (benign)" his hand is millimetres above the red illuminated button,

"Bucky, STOP!" calls Steve from behind shooting daggers at Olive who just smirks as she watches Bucky being dragged away by his friend. The hatch below her feet still open, continuing the whirlwind below as she sits in the middle of her container and resumes her position, legs crossed, arms relaxed and eyes closed. The whirlwind ceases and she opens her eyes to be met with Fury's daggers.

"He almost dropped you" he speaks stepping closer to the glass, "and your ok with that?" he questions confused,

"HYDRA has taught me many skills, one of which being never be afraid to die" she speaks sternly, closing her eyes again, "4 inch ballistic glass?" she questions quirking a brow, opening her eyes, Fury nods. She smiles and closes her eyes.

"You think your so smart" he speaks mockingly, "knowing Bucky's trigger words, knowing everything about us" he finishes stepping forward,

"You think your so smart, being on top of the world, without powers, always thinking your one step ahead, where you'll find your ten steps behind." Olive mocks back and begins to raise the temperature inside the container. Fury steps away from the glass and leaves the room, letting Olive think about what she has done and her plan for escape.

**********************

"Fury" calls Dr Banner before Fury walks past the table where few are still seated, "She's raising the temperature of the room" he continues and Fury takes a step towards him,

"She's what?" he questions tapping the table and getting a reading of Olive's container,

"The rooms already at 150°C..." speaks Bruce as the others snap out of their reverie and look at their screens,

"She should be dead" whispers Tony,

"Or dying at least" continues Sam

"and climbing steadily" finishes Dr Banner as he looks back to his screen to see the red temperature alert at 300°C.

"Monitor the temperature, find Nat and Steve," he begins taking a few steps back from the table and to the controls, "and figure out what she's doing" he calls back harshly, with that Sam leaps out of his seat to find Steve, Natasha and Bucky. Tony and Dr Banner keep watching their screens, both thinking intensively while watching the degrees climb, 500°C.
