Even if we fight forever

Chapter 5

We arrived in Berlin. I was in a van with Steve keeping my eyes on the truck Bucky is in.

Steve, Sam and T'Challa, also known as the Black Panther, are making small talk and learning more about T'Challa.

We arrived at this underground CIA base. As I got out of the van I saw Bucky in a large glass cage.

Steve took my hand and we walked over toward a lady and man standing with 3 guards. "What's gonna happen?"

"Same thing that's outta happen to you. Psychological evaluation and extradition."

"This is Everet Ross. Deputy task force commander." Steve seems to know the lady.

Well, first things first. He steps closer to me and I felt a sharp pain in my arm.

"What did you do that for?" I felt Steve's warm hand on my cheek.

"She's an accomplice. Take her away."

I woke up in a glass cage similar to Bucky's. The cage is in a grey wall room. I look up to see small lights in the ceiling. I prop myself up. I can still feel the vervain burning in my veins.

I sat up and tried to focus my hearing. I can hear voices all around me. I tried to filter the voices to the one that will bring me the most comfort. Bucky please be okay.

"My name is Bucky." Oh, thank goodness he's alive.

Someone is with him. I try to keep the conversation in focus. "Tell me, Bucky. You've seen a great deal, haven't you?" His voice is not familiar at all.

"I don't want to talk about it." My heart breaks at the sound of his voice.

"You fear that... if you open your mouth, the horrors might never stop." He briefly pauses. "Don't worry, we only have to talk about one." I think back about the nightmares he gets, this can't be good.

The power suddenly fails and I pull all my strength together to break open my cell.

"What the hell is this?" I can hear the panic in Bucky's voice.

"Why don't we discuss your home? Not Romania, certainly not Brooklyn, no. I mean your real home." What is he talking about?

"Longing." Crap how does he know about the words?

"No." I can hear his heart starting to race.

"Rusted." I start to rapidly hit on the door.

"Stop."

"Seventeen."

"Stop." I hear Bucky's metal arm tremble in his restraint.

"Daybreak."

Bucky's scream is the final motivation I needed and I broke the door open. The noise attracted the guard and I knock him out as he enters through the door. I ran out into the hall way and I listened intently whether I could hear Bucky's voice.

I can hear the banging against a pod and ran in that direction. As I ran around the corner I heard those scary words. "Ready to comply."
