A.N:Hope you like it.

Returning home from his morning run Sam hears a knock at his door, he opens the door to see Steve, Alex and Natasha.

Sam Wilson:"Hey, man."

Steve Rogers:"I'm sorry about this. We need a place to lay low."

Alex Romanoff:"Everyone we know is trying to kill us."[Sam pauses a moment before replying]

Several smiled a little, it seems he had recover from what he had just learn, except Wanda who look at him worried knowing he might look okay but it was far from the truth.

Sam Wilson:"Not everyone."

Sam let's them enter, later as Steve and Natasha are cleaning up, Steve notices Natasha looking sad and thoughtful.

Steve Rogers:"You okay?"

Natasha Romanoff:"Yeah."

Steve Rogers:"What's going on?"

Natasha Romanoff:"When I first joined SHIELD, I thought I was going straight. But I guess I just traded in the KGB for HYDRA. I thought I knew whose lies I was telling, but... I guess I can't tell the difference anymore."

Alex and Natasha shared a look, as Alex felt the same way.

Steve Rogers:"There's a chance you might be in the wrong business."[Natasha smiles faintly]

Natasha Romanoff:"I owe you."

Steve Rogers:"It's okay."

Natasha Romanoff:"If it was the other way around, and it was down to me to save your life, and you be honest with me, would you trust me to do it?"

Steve Rogers:"I would now. And I'm always honest."

Tony scoffed sending Steve a look.

Natasha Romanoff:"Well, you seem pretty chipper for someone who just found out they died for nothing."

Steve Rogers:"Well, I guess I just like to know who I'm fighting."

Sam Wilson: [to Steve and Natasha]"I made breakfast. If you guys...eat that sort of thing."[later as they are sat in Sam's kitchen]

Alex Romanoff:"So, the question is: who in SHIELD could launch a domestic missile strike?"

Steve Rogers:"Pierce."

Natasha Romanoff:"Who happens to be sitting on top of the most secure building in the world."

Steve Rogers:"But he's not working alone, Zola's algorithm was on the Lemurian Star."

Alex Romanoff:"So was Jasper Sitwell."

Steve Rogers:"So, the real question is: how do the three most wanted people in Washington kidnap a SHIELD officer in broad daylight?"

"I don't think that's going to be possible."

Sam Wilson:"The answer is: you don't."[Sam drops a file in front of Steve]

Steve Rogers:"What's this?"

Sam Wilson:"Call it a resume."[Natasha picks up a photo of Sam with his para-rescue team]

Natasha Romanoff:"Is this Bakhmala? The Khalid Khandil mission, that was you."[She turned to Steve.]"You didn't say he was a para-rescue."[looking at the photo of Sam with his colleague]

Steve Rogers:"Is this Riley?"

Sam Wilson:"Yeah."

Many send him pitying looks that he ignores.

Natasha Romanoff:"I heard they couldn't bring in the choppers because of the RPGs. What did you use, a stealth chute?"

Sam Wilson:"No. These."[he hands Steve the file, Steve opens it and reads it]

Steve Rogers:"I thought you said you were a pilot."

Sam Wilson:"I never said pilot."

Steve Rogers:"I can't ask you to do this, Sam. You got out for a good reason."

Sam Wilson:"Dude, Captain America needs my help. There's no better reason to get back in."

Steve Rogers:"Where can we get our hands on one of these things?"

Sam Wilson:"The last one is at Fort Meade, behind three guarded gates and a twelve-inch steel wall."[Steve looks at Natasha and Alex who shrugs their shoulders]

Steve Rogers:"Shouldn't be a problem."[Steve throws down the file on the table and we see that it's a classified military project called Falcon]

"Pigeon..."Bucky muttered under his breath, Sam, who heard him glare at him.

After their meeting is over Sitwell walks out of the building with Senator Stern

Senator Stern:"Listen, I gotta fly home tonight, cause uh...I got some constituency problem, and I gotta press the flesh."

Jasper Sitwell:"Any constituent in particular, Mr. Senator?"

Senator Stern:"Uh...no, not really. Twenty-three, kind of hot. Real hot. You know, wants to be a reporter, I think. I don't know, who listens at that point?"

Many of the women around the Great Hall scoffed...

Jasper Sitwell:"Doesn't sound much of a problem to me."

Senator Stern:"Really? Cause she's killing my back. Look, this isn't the place to talk about it."[he touches Sitwell's pin on his jacket]"This is a nice pin."

Jasper Sitwell:"Thank you."

Senator Stern:"Come here."[they embrace and as they do Stern whispers to Sitwell]"Hail, HYDRA."[as Stern steps away he touches his back]"See, it's right there..."

"Oh Merlin, they are everywhere don't they?"Tonks asked, the Avengers nodded at the question.

Jasper Sitwell:"I just saw that, yeah."

Senator Stern:"Should I get it checked?"

Jasper Sitwell:"I think you should."[Stern walks away, Sitwell gets a call from Pierce, Sitwell turns to his men]"I need a minute. Bring the car around."[his men leave and Sitwell answers the phone]"Yes, sir?"

Sam Wilson:"Agent Sitwell, how was lunch? I hear the crab cakes here are delicious."

Some laugh slightly at that, he always have some kind of funny comment.

Jasper Sitwell:"Who is this?"

Sam Wilson:"The good looking guy in the sunglasses, your ten o'clock."[Sitwell looks around but doesn't see him]"Your other ten o'clock."[Sitwell turns the other way and sees Sam sitting a few feet away from him]"There you go."

Jasper Sitwell:"What do you want?"

Sam Wilson:"You're gonna go around the corner, to your right. There's a grey car, two spaces down. You and I are gonna take a ride."

Jasper Sitwell:"And why would I do that?"

Sam Wilson:"Because that tie looks really expensive, and I'd hate to mess it up."[Sitwell looks down at his tie and sees a small red light from the gun being pointed at him Steve throws Sitwell across a rooftop, Natasha and Alex follows behind him]

Steve Rogers:"Tell me about Zola's algorithm."

Jasper Sitwell:"Never heard of it."

Steve Rogers:"What were you doing on the Lemurian Star?"

Jasper Sitwell:"I was throwing up, I get seasick."[Steve forces Sitwell to the edge of the rooftop, Sitwell just smiles]"Is this little display meant to insinuate that you're gonna throw me off the roof? Because it's really not your style, Rogers."

Steve Rogers:"You're right. It's not. It's theirs."

Steve steps aside and Natasha and Alex kicks Sitwell off the roof. He plummets down, screaming.

Almost everyone gasp at seeing them kick someone off a roof without a second thought.

"You just kill him!" Molly screech at Natasha and Alex.

"Don't you have some remorse?"Lily shouted at her son, appalled that he doesn't even show remorse after killing somebody.

"Why are you yelling for? This isn't the first time you've seen me kill someone and you didn't complain then, so why now?"Alex said.

Natasha Romanoff:"Oh, wait. What about that girl from accounting, Laura...?"

Everyone were taken aback, seeing her starting a conversation after kicking the man of the roof and they didn't even show some remorse.

Steve Rogers:"Lillian. Lip piercing, right?"

Alex Romanoff:"Yeah, she's cute."

Steve Rogers:"Yeah, I'm not ready for that."

"You're just too old."Alex said, Steve glare at him.

But then, Sam, in his Falcon jet-pack suit with wings, flies up holding Sitwell and throws him down on the roof. Steve, Alex and Natasha walk towards Sitwell, he holds his hand up in fear.

Many who had thought the worst grimaced, thinking they shouldn't have come to that conclusion so quickly. The Potter's look relieved that he didn't kill him but doesn't mean they like what he did.

Jasper Sitwell:"Zola's algorithm is a program... for choosing Insight's targets!"

Steve Rogers:"What targets?"

Jasper Sitwell:"You! A TV anchor in Cairo, the Undersecretary of Defense, a high school valedictorian in Iowa city. Bruce Banner, Stephen Strange, anyone who's a threat to HYDRA! Now, or in the future."

"Wait Strange? Wasn't he the doctor who had a car accident? So why would he be a target then?"Clint asked.

"Most likely because, at the time, he was a famous, arrogant neurosurgeon so the algorithm probably determined that he couldn't be turned or control so he was threat cause of that..." Natasha said.

Alex Romanoff:"The Future? How could it know?"[Sitwell laughs]

Jasper Sitwell:"How could it not? The 21st century is a digital book. Zola taught HYDRA how to read it."[Steve, Alex and Natasha look at him in confusion]"Your bank records, medical histories, voting patterns, e-mails, phone calls, your damn SAT scores. Zola's algorithm evaluates people's past to predict their future."

Steve Rogers:"And what then?"

Jasper Sitwell:"Oh, my God. Pierce is gonna kill me."

"And we wouldn't have?"Alex snorted.

Steve Rogers:"What then?!"

Jasper Sitwell:"Then the Insight Helicarriers scratch people off the list. A few million at a time."[as Sam drives them to Triskelion]"HYDRA doesn't like leaks."

Sam Wilson:"So why don't you try sticking a cork in it."

Natasha Romanoff:"Insight's launching in sixteen hours, we're cutting it a little bit close here."

Steve Rogers:"I know. We'll use him to bypass the DNA scans and access the Helicarriers directly."

Jasper Sitwell:"What?! Are you crazy? That is a terrible, terrible idea-"

Suddenly the Winter Soldier lands on the car roof, pulls Sitwell out through the window and throws him into the oncoming traffic, killing him, he then starts shooting at them until Steve pulls the break handle making the Winter Soldier drop down onto the street, as another car smashes into their car and pushes them along, the Winter Soldier jumps back onto their car, smashes through the windscreen and pulls out the steering wheel

The great hall jumped a little back bit.

"What the hell!"

"Holy shit!"

"He's lucky he didn't do that to my baby or I would..."Alex muttered, frowning, as Rose looked at him confused. Wanda rolls her eyes at how protective he is of his car.

"Language!"The mother in the great hall and Steve said, making the Avengers laughed at Steve being like a mom.

Sam Wilson:"Shit!"

Alex starts shooting at him but the Winter Soldier jumps onto the vehicle behind them, as the car is being pulled off the road Steve holds on to the car door

Steve Rogers:"Hang on!"

Steve breaks open the door, holding onto Alex, Natasha and Sam, they slide on the car door through the streets the Winter Soldier is joined by HYDRA agents and they start shooting at them, they scatter and run off in different directions with the Winter Soldier shooting at Natasha but she manages to shoot him in his eye goggle mask and run off.

Winter Soldier:"Она у меня. Найди его."(She's mine. ([subtitled as:] I'll take care of her.) Find him.)

The Winter Soldier goes in pursuit of Natasha as the Hydra agents go after, Alex, Steve and Sam who they manage to fend them off as they shoot at them, Steve then notices the Winter Soldier in pursuit of Natasha.

Alex Romanoff:"Go, We got this!"

The Winter Soldier thinks he's found Natasha hiding behind a car as he can hear her voice.

Natasha Romanoff:"I make an LZ, twenty-three hundred block of Virginia Avenue. Rendezvous two minutes. Taking fire above and below expressway. Civilians threatened. Repeat, civilians threatened."[he rolls a bomb towards where he thinks she's hiding. As the bomb rolls behind the car we see that Natasha isn't actually there but a recording over her voice is being played back on a phone]"I make an LZ, twenty-three hundred block at Virginia Avenue. Rendezvous two minutes."

"That's smart!" Kingsley said, as Aurors and Moody nodded in agreement.

The bomb explodes. Natasha jumps onto the Winter Soldier's back and tries to strangle him. He throws her off, and attempts to shoot her, only for Natasha to throw an electric device which shocks his electric arm before running off.

Bucky and Clint groaned they really hate that thing.

He removes the device, and recalibrates his arm.

Natasha Romanoff: [to the civilians as she tries to get away from the Winter Soldier]"GET OUT OF THE WAY! STAY OUT OF THE WAY!"

She suddenly gets shot in the shoulder and falls down. She looks around her, only for the Winter Soldier to come up for behind, ready to shoot her again.

Many around the hall gasp when they saw her get shot.

When suddenly, Alex ran up and used Black Widow's own scissor kick to take him down. The two rolled on the ground and quickly got up to face each other again. The Winter Soldier picked his rifle up and aimed but Alex grabbed it and wrestled to get it out of his hands. He knee his abdomen and successfully disarmed him and threw the gun aside before landing a right hook across his face followed by an uppercut. Winter Soldier tried to counter with his own swing, but Alex dodged and hit him in the stomach. He followed with a roundhouse kick that slammed the soldier into a car. The Winter Soldier quickly took his handgun, but Alex didn't react in time and was shot in his side.

Rose and Harry look scared for their big brother as that wound look nasty.

And then Steve jumps in and blocks a punch from the latter with his shield before he kicks him away, followed by him blocking a few bullets from the Winter Soldier's Colt M4A1, Škorpion vz. 61, and SIG-Sauer P220ST. The Winter Soldier briefly takes Steve's shield, and throws it at him, but Steve manages to avoid being hit. Then they fiercely battle it out. Eventually, Steve manages to stop the Winter Soldier's arm, and throws him away, the latter's mask falling off in the process. He lands, and looks at an aghast Steve, whom by just looking at him, has learned his true identity.

Steve Rogers:"Bucky...?"

Bucky Barnes:"Who the hell is Bucky?"

Everyone, except the one that know, were confused and wondered why he couldn't remember his name.

As Bucky aims his pistol at Steve, Sam flies in and kicks Bucky aside. Bucky has a brief look of realization, but he quickly brushes it aside, and takes aim again, but before he can shoot Natasha uses the grenade launcher he dropped against him. He vanishes in the smoke of the explosion.

Soon, the trio hear sirens after which they are surrounded by HYDRA agents being led by Rumlow

Brock Rumlow:"Drop the shield, Cap! On your knees! Get on your knees! Now! Get down! Get down!"[Steve holds his hands up]"Get on your knees! Down!"[he kicks Steve's leg and Steve kneels down]"Don't move."[Rumlow looks at the helicopter flying above them and warns Rollins who's holding Steve at gunpoint]"Put the gun down. Not here. Not here!"[Rollins lowers his gun, the HYDRA agents then take Steve, Sam, Alex and Natasha into custody]

Many are concerned for Alex and Natasha who are bleeding, but especially for Alex, whose injury seems to be the most serious.

as the trio is being escorted in a van

Steve Rogers:"It was him. He looked right at me like he didn't even know me."

Sam Wilson:"How's that even possible? It was like seventy years ago."

Steve Rogers:"Zola. Bucky's whole unit was captured in '43, Zola experimented on him. Whatever he did helped Bucky survive the fall. They must have found him and..."

Natasha Romanoff:"None of that's your fault, Steve."

Steve Rogers:"Even when I had nothing, I had Bucky."[Sam notices Natasha and Alex are bleeding and looks at the guards]

Sam Wilson:"We need to get a doctor here. We don't put pressure on that wound they are gonna bleed out here in the truck."

Rose grabs her brother's arm and he pulls her closer to comfort her.

Suddenly one of the guards pulls out an electric rod and neutralizes the other guard and knocks him out, the guard is revealed to be Hill as she takes off her helmet

Maria Hill:"Ah. That thing was squeezing my brain."[Sam looks at her in confusion; to Steve] "Who's this guy?"[Rumlow's crew stop their vehicles and get out]

Everyone cheered, especially the girls.

Brock Rumlow:"Three holes. Start digging."[they go over to the van holding Steve, Sam, Alex and Natasha and as they open the door they find it empty with one of the guards left unconscious and massive burnt whole on the car floor]

Hill has taken the trio to a secret facility, a man runs towards them; referring to Natasha and Alex's wound.

Maria Hill:"GSW. They lost at least a pint."

Sam Wilson:"Maybe two."

Doctor:"Let me take them."

Maria Hill:"They'll want to see him first."[Hill takes them to Fury who's alive and lying in bed, they look at him in shock]

The Great Hall goes silent as everyone is shocked to see Fury still alive.

Nick Fury:"About damn time."[later as Natasha and Alex's wound are being treated]"Lacerated spinal column, cracked sternum, shattered collarbone, perforated liver, one hell of a headache."

Doctor:"Don't forget your collapsed lung."

Nick Fury:"Oh, let's not forget that. Otherwise, I'm good."

Natasha Romanoff:"They cut you open, your heart stopped."

Alex Romanoff:"We watch you die."

Nick Fury:"Tetrodotoxin B. Slows the pulse to one beat a minute. Banner developed it for stress. Didn't work so great for him, but we found a use for it."

Bruce sighs, at least they've found a use for it.

Steve Rogers:"Why all the secrecy? Why not just tell us?"

Maria Hill:"Any attempt on the director's life had to look successful."

Nick Fury:"Can't kill you if you're already dead. Besides, I wasn't sure who to trust."

Natasha and Alex had a brief look of hurt but quickly hide it.

Inside a bank vault, the HYDRA agents fix Bucky's metal arm and as they do so he has a brief flashback to his old life after he was recovered by Zola and the HYDRA agents

Dr. Arnim Zola:"Sergeant Barnes..."[he has to flashback to falling off the train at the edge of the mountain with Steve trying to save him]

Steve Rogers:"Bucky, no!"

He then has flashback to after he's picked up by Hydra agents.

Bucky tensed up and look away...

Dr. Arnim Zola:"The procedure has already started."[we see the Zola and the Hydra agent amputating his left arm and replacing with the metal arm]"You are to be the new fist of HYDRA." [to his men]"Put him on ice."[we see Bucky being frozen after which he comes back to the present and knocks over the HYDRA agent fixing his arm, Rollins points his gun at him to stop him attacking any further as Pierce enters the bank vault Bucky is being held in]

Scientist #1:"Sir, he's...he's unstable. Erratic."[Pierce enters with Rumlow and some other HYDRA agents and goes over to Bucky]

Alexander Pierce:"Mission report."[Bucky; looking blank, doesn't respond] Mission report, now. [Pierce moves closer to Bucky and suddenly strikes him hard in the face]

Many jump slightly not expecting that.

Bucky Barnes:"The man on the bridge..."[he has flashback to Steve calling him by his name]"Who was he?"

Alexander Pierce:"You met him earlier this week on another assignment."

Bucky Barnes:"I knew him."[Pierce sits in front of Bucky]

Alexander Pierce:"Your work has been a gift to mankind. You shaped the century, and I need you to do it one more time. Society is at a tipping point between order and chaos. Tomorrow morning we're gonna give it a push. But, if you don't do your part, I can't do mine, and HYDRA can't give the world the freedom it deserves."

Bucky Barnes:"But I knew him."[Pierce turns to the scientists]

Alexander Pierce:"Prep him."

"What does that mean?"

Scientist #1:"He's been out of cryo-freeze too long."

Alexander Pierce:"Then wipe him and start over."[the scientists strap Bucky in his chair and then place a teeth shield in his mouth as they begin the process of wiping his brain with Bucky screaming in pain]

Bucky looked down, Steve squeeze his shoulder let him know that he's there for him.

Back at the secret facility

Nick Fury: [looking at a photo of Pierce]"This man declined the Nobel Peace Prize. He said, "Peace wasn't an achievement, it was a responsibility." See, it's stuff like this that gives me trust issues."

Alex Romanoff:"We have to stop the launch."

Nick Fury:"I don't think the Council's accepting my calls anymore."[Fury opens a case containing three chips]

Sam Wilson:"What's that?"

Maria Hill:"Once the Helicarriers reach three thousand feet, they'll triangulate with Insight satellites becoming fully weaponized."

Nick Fury:"We need to breach those carriers and replace their targeting blades with our own."

Maria Hill:"One or two won't cut it. We need to link all three carriers for this to work, because if even one of those ships remains operational a whole lot of people are gonna die."

The Hall watches the scene anxiously.

Nick Fury:"We have to assume everyone aboard those carriers is HYDRA. We need to get pass them, insert the server blades, and maybe, just maybe, we can salvage what's left..."

Steve Rogers:"We're not salvaging anything. We're not just taking down the carriers, Nick, we're taking down SHIELD."

Nick Fury:"SHIELD had nothing to do with it."

Steve Rogers:"You gave me this mission, this is how it ends. SHIELD's been compromised, you said so yourself. HYDRA grew right under your nose and nobody noticed."

Nick Fury:"Why do you think we're meeting in this cave? I noticed."

"A bit late, no?"

Steve Rogers:"And how many paid the price before you did?"

Nick Fury:"Look, I didn't know about Barnes."

Steve Rogers:"Even if you have, would you have told me? Or would you have compartmentalized that too? SHIELD, HYDRA, it all goes."

Maria Hill:"He's right."[Fury looks at Natasha and Alex then Sam]

Sam Wilson:"Don't look at me. I do what he does, just slower."

Many students laughed at him.

Nick Fury:"Well... Looks like you're giving the orders now, Captain."

Steve stands on a bridge and has a flashback to the time he spent with Bucky after Steve's mother's funeral

Bucky Barnes:"We looked for you after. My folks wanted to give you a ride to the cemetery."[they walk towards Steve's apartment]

Steve Rogers:"I know, I'm sorry. I just...kind of wanted to be alone."

Bucky Barnes:"How was it?"

Steve Rogers:"It was okay. She's next to Dad."

Steve looked down sadly.

Bucky Barnes:"I was gonna ask..."

Steve Rogers:"I know what you're gonna say, Buck, I just..."

Bucky Barnes:"We can put the couch cushions on the floor like when we were kids. It'll be fun. All you gotta do is shine my shoes, maybe take out the trash."[as they get to the apartment door, Steve tries to find his keys, Bucky kicks a brick aside, picks up the apartment keys from under it and gives it to Steve]"Come on."

Steve Rogers:"Thank you, Buck, but I can get by on my own."

Bucky Barnes:"The thing is, you don't have to."[Bucky gives Steve a friendly pat on the shoulder]"I'm with you to the end of the line, pal."

Steve and Bucky smiled each other, it's true they will always be there for each other.

Many smiled at their friendship.

Steve's thoughts of Bucky are interrupted as Sam joins him on the bridge

Sam Wilson:"He's gonna be there, you know?"

Steve Rogers:"I know."

Sam Wilson:"Look, whoever he used to be, the guy he is now, I don't think he's the kind you save. He's the kind you stop."

Steve Rogers:"I don't know if I can do that."

Sam Wilson:"Well, he might not give you a choice. He doesn't know you."

Steve Rogers:"He will. Gear up, it's time."[Steve turns and starts to walk off]

Sam Wilson:"You gonna wear that?"

Steve Rogers:"No. If you're gonna fight a war, you gotta wear a uniform."[later as a guard walks in the Smithsonian Museum when he looks over to the Captain America exhibit he notices the Captain America WWII uniform on that was on the dummy has been stolen]

Smithsonian Guard:"Oh, man. I am so fired!"

Steve felt guilty, he hope he didn't cause the man to lost his job.
