"Stop squirming" Selene pushes David back against her couch and pulls a bullet from his shoulder.

"Ow" he whines with a smirk, she rolls her eyes and sets it in a bowl of water at the side.

"You're such a baby" she grumbles. David smirks at her.

"Kiss it better" he puckers his lips at her, she shoves her thumb into his bullet wound. "OW!" she pulls back, the wound stitching together. Selene climbs from his lap and grabs the bowl moving away from him. "Selene...."

"I know, David...." she sets the bowl into the sink and grips the counter as she sighs. "The numbers in the last few weeks.....something is happening..."

"Death Dealer numbers have dwindled in the past hundred years......there is only a handful of us left.....if they are massing..." Selene nods and sighs as her phone rings. David groans reaching over for it.

"Selene's apartment"

"David, it's Nat...is she there?"

"Yeah, sure..." David holds up the phone as Selene moves to him, she takes the phone from him and presses it to her ear.

"Malen'kiy pauk"

"Fury wants to talk to meet.....we found the Lycan body in the subway...." Selene purses her lips. "You're getting sloppy in your old age" Selene snorts a look.

"There was no time....."

"Come to the facility tonight..."

"This is business, little spider.....David and Kahn will be coming with me"

"Very well" Natasha states. "I'll make sure security knows"

"See you then" Selene hangs up and purses her lips looking back at David.

"You know Barnes is gonna find out"

"Yes....I am aware.....but maybe they could be the help we are looking for....against the Lycans..." David raises an eyebrow. "They can do what we do....in the daylight" David smirks at her.

Bucky sits eating breakfast, bacon and lots of scrambled eggs, he can't believe how much he missed scrambled eggs with Hydra. Steve and Sam sit across from him, Steve with his bowl of porridge and Sam with his coffee.

"Easy, Buck, you'll choke yourself"

"Don't care" Bucky mumbles with a mouthful of eggs. Sam smirks.

"Imagine the headlines....Winter Soldier, 90 year old assassin, kicks it.....chokes on scrambled eggs" Sam teases, Bucky flicks a forkful of eggs at him. "Dude!" Bucky smirks shoving another mouthful in.

"You talked to Selene today?" Steve asks looking at Bucky, he shrugs back.

"She text....Idon'tknowhowtoreply" he mumbles, quickly. Sam smirks, Bucky shoots him a warning look back. Steve smirks around his own coffee mug. Despite Hydra...Bucky it turns out is terrible with technology, he can call on a cell phone, turn on the tv and hack but that is about it, texting, internet searches, video games.......no chance.

"Give it here" Sam states holding out his hand, Bucky sighs and hand his cell phone over, Sam shakes his head amused. "Okay, so she asked if you've thought on fun yet"

"I guess.....sex doesn't count, right?" Steve blushes and coughs up coffee.

"No" Sam states. "I think she meant more....reading, going to the pictures, jogging, yoga.....cooking"

"I like field stripping my rifle"

"Nothing to do with weapons" Sam adds. Bucky frowns. "What does she do?"

"She watches tv shows about vampires"

"Do you not fancy something like that?" Sam asks.

"I don't know, vampires weren't really that popular before...."

"Yeah, well they are everywhere now" Clint mumbles sitting next to Bucky, who turns and looks to him confused. No one else usually wants to be around him. "What are we talking about?"

"Things Bucky can do for fun...."

"Sex" Clint offers, Bucky smirks a little.

"That doesn't count" Sam sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose.

"It does if you have the right partner....."

"This is about blowing off steam"

"I repeat....Sex" Clint tells them. "Just pay some one to indulge in you freaky kinks"

"Whose says they're freaky?" Bucky asks with a glare.

"And you're talking about prostitution" Steve states. "That's illegal" Clint stares at Steve before looking to Bucky.

"Then just find a nice girl......well a bad girl and you know...."

"Shall I text that to Selene?" Sam teases.

"No!" Bucky shouts. "I don't want her to think of me as some sort of sex fiend" Sam and Clint laugh. Clint turns to him.

"So......this Selene....you like her?" he asks, Bucky shrugs.

"Maybe....I guess so.....I mean...she's pretty hot.....and.....she understands" Clint raises an eyebrow at Bucky. "She's former Hydra.....Nat's friend"

"Huh....." Clint shrugs and steals Sam's coffee. "Thanks for this" he jumps up and walks away.

"So what am I texting Selene?" Sam asks.

Khan pulls on his leather coat as Selene straps a gun to her side, David raises an eyebrow.

"Are the guns necessary?"

"Just in case" she mumbles grabbing her own leather coat. "I trust Natal'ya......but Fury? That's why I am bringing the two of you with me" Khan straps a weapon to his thigh. "You are two of my most trusted friends"

"It's nice you think so highly of us, Selene" Khan tells her with a smirk. "It's only been five hundred years"

"I have trust issues" she mumbles with a glare. "Thank Hydra" they both grumble in agreement. "Oh" Selene moves to her dvd unit. "Bucky said he wants to try vampire tv shows" she grabs a few from the shelf. "I figured whilst we are at the facility" David smirks.

"Getting soft on the human?" he teases as she passes him. Selene rolls her eyes and nudges him.

"It's just nice....someone else got free of that organisation" Selene states moving to the door. "Lets go"
