"It threw both of us off, maybe if I had paid more attention I could have controlled the situation better"
"We could play the What if game all day, the fact is what happened, happened"
It's time to choose sides, and knowing the outcome is hard on s...
I wake up, screaming "No!" as I had seen the final fight between Tony and Steve and having to see what is about to happen to us. "Cassandra are you okay?" Bucky asks. "Yeah, yeah just give me a minute" I say to him catching my breath. "It's gonna happen soon" Steve says and I don't say a word, and Bucky looks confused. "I get visions" I tell him. "Oh" is all he says. I look out the window of the jet to see mountains.
"What's gonna happen to your friends?" Bucky asks us. "Whatever it is..I'll deal with it" Steve says as I notice he says I. "I don't know if I'm worth all this Steve" Bucky says.

"What you did all those years..it wasn't you. You didn't have a choice" Steve tells him. "I know, but I did it" Bucky says. "But that was your past Bucky, and we know that's not who you are now" I say to him. "You really need to keep this one" Bucky smiles. Steve and I both frown, knowing that won't happen soon.
After awhile Steve lands the jet on the mountain top. We all get up and head to the back of the jet. I press a button and open Natasha's weapons for Bucky. I grab a winter coat, not wanting to freeze from the weather. Once we are all ready we head to the back of the jet and I press the button for the back hatch to open.
"You remember that time we had to ride back from Rockaway Beach in the back of that freezer truck?" Steve says to Bucky. "Was that the time we used our train money to buy hot dogs?" Bucky asks. "You blew three bucks trying to win that stuffed bear for a redhead" Steve says smiling. "What was her name again?" Bucky asks. "Dolores, you called her Dot" Steve says to him. "She's gotta be a hundred years old right now" Bucky says. Steve places his hand in Bucky's shoulder, "So are we, pal"
The hatch finally opens and they go to leave, "Steve wait" I cal out before he buts his helmet on. He nods for Bucky to go on, and Bucky just smiled before walking away. "This is it isn't it? Three of us go in, two of us walk our" he says. I take his hands in mine, "It is, but we will find each other again. I know we will" I tell him. He pulls he close holding me tightly, "I never thought I would find love, when I came out of that ice. The world was different when I woke up, I thought I had no Peggy or Bucky. But then you showed up in the gym that day and my world changed once more. Cassandra you showed me how to love again" he says as he pulls me in for a kiss. I kiss him back feeling our passion and strength, when I finally pull away.

"I love you Steve, and just know what happens in there is suppose to happen and we will make our way back to one another" I say to him as we lean our heads together as I then kiss him one more time.
After a minute we break apart and look at each other, "Ready?" He asks. "Yeah" I say and we leave the jet, making our way to Bucky. We walk up to him and head to the door and see it's still open. "He can't have been here more than a few hours" I say to them. "Long enough to wake them up" Bucky says to us. The three of us enter the bunker and travel down a caged elevator. It stops at the bottom of the bunker, and the door slides open. Bucky heaves the door up and we exit. Walking down the corridor Bucky read us his gun and I create energy in case. We keep close to the wall and head for a set of stairs. As we go to walk up then we hear a noise behind us. We turn around, Steve kneels down, his shield in front of him. Bucky readies the gun and kneels down behind Steve. I create energy and we all ready to fight whoever's coming through. "You ready?" Bucky asks. "Yeah" Bucky and I say together.

The doors open and we see Tony in his Iron Man suit. He walks toward us and retracts his helmet. "You seem a little defensive" Tony says. Bucky keeps his gun up and I keep my energy ready. Steve walks toward Tony, his shield still in front of him. "It's been a long day" Steve says. "At ease, Green, Solider. I'm not currently after you" Tony says. "Then why are you here?" I ask him. "Could be your story's not so crazy, Maybe. Ross has no idea I'm here. I'd like to keep it that way. Otherwise, I gotta arrest myself" Tony says. "Well that sounds like a lot of paperwork" I say as I make my energy disappear and Steve lowers his shield.
"It's good to see you Tony" Steve says. "You too Cap, Green" Tony then looks as Bucky. "Hey Manchurian Candidate, you're killing me. There's a truce here, you can drop the gun" Steve looks at Bucky to tell him to lower his gun and he does.
The four of us then head down the corridor, Tony puts his mask back on and we toward a chamber. "I got heat signatures" Tony says. "How many?" I ask. "Uh, one" he answers. We enter the chamber the lights come on and we see a yellow mist inside capsules. We look around to see bodies are inside each capsule. "If it's any comfort, they died in their sleep" a voice comes through a speaker. We notice bullet holes in each capsule.
"Did you really think I wanted more of you?" the voice says. "What the hell?" Bucky says. "I'm grateful to them though, they brought you here" the voice says as a man we recognize as Helmut Zemo appears behind glass. I then blast energy at the glass, Steve throws his shield. His shield comes flying back at him and my energy does nothing. "Please, Emerald, Captain. The Soviets built this chamber to withstand the launch blast of UR-100 Rockets" he tells us. "I'm betting I could beat that" Tony says. "Oh, I'm sure you could Mr.Stark. Given time, but then you'd never know why you came" Zemo tells him. "You killed innocent people in Vienna, just to bring us here. Why?" Steve questions. "I thought nothing else for over a year. I studied you. I followed you. But now that you're standing here, I just realized...there's a bit of green in the blue of your eyes. How nice to find a flaw" Zemo says. "You're Sokovia. Is that that what this is about?" Steve asks. "Sokovia was a failed state long before you blew it to hell. No I'm here because I made a promise " he tells Steve. "You lost someone" Steve replies. "I lost everyone, and so will you" Zemo says as the monitor in front of us turns on. "An empire toppled by its enemies can rise again. But one which crumples from within? That's dead...Forever" Zemo says as the screen begins to play footage.
