BUCKY POV:
It's nearly 10 at night and we're out on a mission, taking down a HYDRA base. Luckily none of these Agents know my trigger words or we could have a problem. We've been trying to get rid of my words and we think we've been successful, but we can't be completely sure until we test it, which we've been avoiding doing so. Romanoff and I are walking down a corridor together, we'd all split up into smaller groups a while ago. As we're fighting and shooting at the Agents, we keep walking and come across two different directions, we decide to split up. As I'm walking down a dark corridor, I start to feel light headed, but before I can do anything about it, I collapse. Just before my eyes shut, I see HYDRA Agents running towards me.

I open my eyes and shoot up, I expected to be in a cell, frozen or on a metal table, but instead I'm in a bed. Looking around I can see I'm in a bedroom, the room is white and so is all the furniture, there's a note beside the bed 'Прочитай это.' I reach for it with my left arm and realise it isn't metal, it freaks me out for a moment. Then I grab the note and open it to see a letter written in Russian 'My name is Galina and this is my apartment. If you haven’t already figured it out, I'm your soulmate.'

Soulmate!?

'I'm not working today and I had nothing planned, but I recommend you stay inside, for your own safety. Do not under any circumstance answer the door or pick up the phone. Eat whatever you like from my kitchen, but don't burn my place down. There's a medical kit in the bathroom, in case you need it. You can look around, anything I don't want you to see is locked in a safe, do not attempt to look inside.'

This doesn't sound too reassuring, what sort of a person is my soulmate?

I get out of the bed and walk up to a full length mirror, reflected is a pale skinned, green eyed woman with blonde wavy hair which is just past her shoulders. She's gorgeous. I head over to her wardrobe and look for some clothes, everything is black. I pull out a tank top and skinny jeans. I open a draw to find underwear, I choose a pair of black socks and a pair of matching black lacy underwear. I make my way to the bathroom to get changed and figure things out. I thought having my arm back would be strange, but being a woman is even stranger. I've now had a look around her apartment, a thorough search and on this search I found something she clearly didn't expect to be found. Taped to the top of the 2 metre high fridge is a loaded pistol, I think back to the letter saying about not leaving for my own safety and I think I understand why.

Of course my soulmate couldn't just be a normal woman, she has to be some kind of villain or hero. But which is she?

There's nothing else in the apartment that helps me figure out who she really is and I can't even find the safe she mentioned.
