You couldn't tell how long you had been in the bunker. Nate hadn't come back since breakfast. Cross-legged on the bed contemplating your next move. You had to figure out how to get this chain off your ankle. You gazed around the room for what felt like the hundredth time, looking for something, anything to help jimmy this lock off. The table was made of crappy cheap wood that would only splinter.

Frustration ran through you as your head fell into your hands.

Think, girl, think.

The bed sqeeked underneath you again. Realization hit, you were sitting on an old metal framed bed.  Swiftly you throw the mattress aside and assessed the metal frame. You see an old rusted screw from the post and quickly remove it, along with the center railing, your hammer.

You sit on the floor and position the lock as far from your ankle as you could. You positioned the screw in the center and lined up your hammer, careful not to hit your ankle.

Here goes nothing. You swing and hit the nail dead on.

Nothing.

You line up and swing again, this time with more force.

Smack!! Smack!!

The nail sunk into the lock and it released.

Relief flooded as you immediately remove the lock from your ankle.

One problem solved. Then next would be to get out this room.

Cement walls, no windows, a vent that you definitely can't fit through, and one door.

The realization dawned on you that if you wanted to get out, he would have to come in.

Bucky paced back in forth in the jet as they approached the bunker.

"You have to stay calm Buck," Steve said grabbing his shoulder. Bucky shrugged him off. "This is me calm," he replied.

"Could've fooled me," Steve said.

"What do you want me to do?!," Bucky yelled
