Internal Exploding

Steve walked Sharon back to her hotel after Peggy's funeral.

"My mom tried to talk me out of enlisting, but, um..." Sharon trailed off. "Not Aunt Peggy. She bought me my first knife holster."

"Very practical," Steve told her.

"And stylish," Sharon told him.

They reached the elevator.

Sharon hit the elevator call button.

"CIA has you stationed over here now?" Steve asked.

"In Berlin, joint terrorist and task force," Sharon answered.

Steve nodded. "Right. Sounds fun."

"I know, right?" Sharon asked.

Steve smiled a small smile. "I've been meaning to ask you. When you were spying on me from across the hall..."

"You mean when I was doing my job?" Sharon asked.

Steve nodded. "Did Peggy know?"

Sharon sighed. "She kept so many secrets. I didn't want her to have one from you." Steve nodded understandingly. The elevator reached them. "Thanks for walking me back."

"Sure," Steve told her.

Sharon and Steve looked at each other for a moment.

Bree walked closer. "Steve." They looked at her. "There's something you got to see."


        ✯     


Bree, Steve and Sharon were in a room, watching the news.

The news was a broadcast of the bombing at the UN. "A bomb hidden in a news van blast through the UN building in Vienna. Who's coordinating? More than 70 people have been injured. At least 12 are dead. Including Wakanda's King, T'Chaka. Officials have released a video of a suspect, whom they've identified as Alec Anders, Dark Shadow. The infamous Hydra agent, linked to numerous acts of terrorism and political assassinations, alongside James Buchanan Barnes, The Winter Soldier."

Sharon stepped up between Steve and Bree, sighing. "I have to go to work."


        ✯     


Everyone was outside of the UN building.

Firefighters were putting out the remaining fires.

A helicopter flew overhead.

Sharon led a soldier along. "Call MI6. See if we can get micro forensics to hurry this up. We need the whole team here in two hours, or it's not worth it."

T'Challa was sitting on a bench, gazing off numbly into space.

Natasha slowly walked toward him, sitting down. "I'm very sorry." 

T'Challa was holding his father's ring. "In my culture, death... is not the end. It's more of a... stepping off point. You reach out with both hands and bask... in segment. They lead you into the green valley where you can run forever."

"That sounds very peaceful," Natasha told him.

"My father thought so," T'Challa told her. He put the ring on his finger. "I am not my father."

"T'Challa, the task force will decide who brings in Anders and Barnes," Natasha told him. 

T'Challa stood. "Don't bother, Ms. Romanoff. I'll kill them myself."

Ana was nearby, watching, pacing, sighing. Her phone rang. She pulled it out, answering. "Yeah?"

Bree was on the other line, wearing a hat and sunglasses to blend in with a crowd. "Are you all right?"

"Uh, yeah," Ana answered. "Me and Mom both are. Thanks. We got lucky." She looked around, stepping away from any listeners to speak to Bree alone over the phone. "I know how much Anders and Barnes means to you. I really do. Stay at home. You'll only make this worse for all of us. Please."

"Are you saying you'll arrest me?" Bree asked.

"No," Ana answered. "Someone will, if you interfere. That's how it works now."

"I can't do nothing, Ana," Bree told her. "I have to find them. It has to be me who finds him."

Bree looked across the street toward Ana.

"Why?" Ana asked.

"Because I'm the one least likely to die," Bree answered, hanging up.

Ana hung up, sighing. "Shit."


        ✯ 


Bree walked into a cafe where Steve was sitting at a table.

Steve was wearing a baseball hat and sunglasses to blend in. "Did she tell you to stay out of it?"

"What do you think?" Bree asked. "We have to do this for them, Steve. They'd do it for us."

"I know," Steve told her. "I just hope they're not too far gone. Because the people that shoot at you, usually wind up shooting at me."

Sharon walked up to the counter, standing on the other side of Steve. "Tips have been pouring in since he footage went public. Everybody thinks Dark Shadow goes to their gym. Most of it's noise, except for this." She slid a file toward Steve. "My boss expects a briefing pretty much now, so... that's all the head start you're going to get."

"Thank you," Steve told her.

"And you're going to have to hurry," Sharon told them. "We have orders to shoot on sight."

Sharon walked away, leaving.

Bucharest 


Alec was in a warehouse building in a room, sitting on a table, groaning in pain from electricity.

Bucky was pacing in front of him. "Come on, Alec. This is the only way you're gonna get your memories back."

"Says the guy that got his memories back the easy way," Alec told him.

Bucky scoffed, shaking his head. "It wasn't easy, believe me."

"Where were you for the past few years?" Alec asked.

"Getting my mind right so that I can help you get your mind right," Bucky answered. "Then maybe we can finally put an end to this and go home."

Alec chuckled without humor. "'Home'. Where is home, Bucky?" 

Bucky didn't answer.

They heard a door opening in the distance, looking toward the direction it came from.


        ✯     

    


Bree walked in through the corridors of the warehouse, up the stairs around the railings, looking around. 

"Heads up, Bree," Steve told her. "German special forces approaching from the south."

"Understood," Bree told him.

Bucky walked out into the hallway behind her, turning to face her.

Bree heard him, turning around, stunned from seeing him after so long, her breath catching quietly.

Bucky was just as stunned. "Bree."

"You remember?" Bree asked.

Bucky took a deep breath. "I've been remembering a lot of things. Since that day I pulled you out of the river."

"Where have you been?" Bree asked.

"I've... been trying to reverse the damage Hydra's done to me," Bucky answered. "I've been doing the same for Alec. To save him."

"Why didn't you come to me for help?" Bree asked.

Bucky was ashamed to say this. "Because I knew that if I couldn't fix myself, Hydra could still turn me against you. Again. I wanted to protect you."

Bree took a deep breath unsteadily.

"They've set the perimeter," Steve told her.

Bree looked at Bucky. "Where's Alec now?"

"He's here," Bucky answered. "We weren't in Vienna. I don't do that anymore. Alec was here. I had him here to try and give him his memory and freedom back. We didn't do that."

"They're entering the building," Steve told her.

"Well, the people who think you did are coming here now," Bree told him. "And they're not planning on taking you alive."

"They're on the roof," Steve told her. "I'm compromised."

They heard running footsteps in the distance.

Bucky walked into the room where Alec was, breaking the restraints off of him to free him so they could run.

Bree walked in. She froze when she saw Alec. 

Alec looked at Bree, breathing heavily, but he didn't seem to recognize her as much as he should have.

"This doesn't have to end in a fight," Bree told them.

"It always ends in a fight," Alec told them.

Steve walked in, suited up. "Five seconds."

A bomb was thrown inside at Bucky.

Steve hit the bomb with his shield, making it fall, putting the shield over the bomb to contain the explosion.

A SWAT team burst their way in.

Alec kicked up the table he had been on to use as a shield from the bullets. He threw it into another door to keep it from behind opened.

Bucky punched Agent 1 in the face with his metal arm.

Agent 2 tried to shoot them. Bree used her staff to hit the gun up to the ceiling, making him drop it.

Steve pushed Agent 3 out of the open door.

Alec kicked Agent 4 in the chest, making him fall, starting to walk away.

Steve grabbed his arm to stop him. "Alec, stop! You're gonna kill someone."

Alec pushed Steve to the floor, punching through the wooden floor next to his head to pull out a bag, standing, backing away.

"He's not gonna kill anyone," Bucky told them.

Alec threw his bag out across the way to the roof across the street.

More agents walked in, firing at them.

Alec received the shots in his metal chest and stomach. He couldn't die that way.

Bucky pulled Bree behind Alec to use him as a shield for the both of them.

Steve stood, standing in front of Alec, holding his shield in front of their heads to protect them.

Alec pushed Steve into Agent 5, making them both fall through a window to the fire escape outside. He walked toward Agent 6, grabbing his head, slamming it against the wall, making him fall unconscious. Agent 7 ran closer. Alec picked up a block of concrete, throwing it into Agent 7, making him fall unconscious.

On the fire escape, Agent 5 tried to shoot Steve. Steve grabbed his gun to stop him, flipping it out of his grasp.

    

        ✯     


Alec walked into the hallway of the warehouse, punching Agent 8 in the face, making him fall.

Agents 9 and 10 ran toward Bucky and Bree. Bucky pushed a broken door into them, making them fall unconscious, punching Agent 11 in the face, kicking Agent 12 down the stairs.

Agent 13 tried to shoot Bree. Bree caught the side of his gun, flipping him to the floor.

Agent 14 crashed through the skylight, trying to shoot Bucky.

Bree pushed Bucky out of the way into safety behind Alec.

Alec used his metal chest and stomach as a shield.

Bree grabbed Agent 14's gun, taking it away throwing it against the wall, kicking him off the wire to the floor. Agent 15 ran up the stairs. Bree used her staff to hit Agent 16 in the stomach, making him fall. 

More agents walked upstairs.

Bree latched the hook of her staff to the railing, sliding past Agents 17 and 18, kicking them in the face on her way to the second landing, making them fall. She jumped back over the railing to the stairs in front of Agents 19 and 20, hitting them in the heads with her staff, making them fall unconscious.

Bucky and Alec jumped down from the first landing to the third landing.

Steve walked into the hallway.

Agent 9, still on the floor, spoke into his radio in German. "Suspects have broken containment. They're headed down the east stairwell."

Steve took the radio from Agent 9, crushing it in his hand. He jumped from the first landing to the second landing.

Bucky punched Agent 21 in the chest twice, making him fall, elbowing Agent 22 in the face, making him fall into a fire extinguisher vase, making the glass shatter. 

Agent 23 lunged for Alec. 

Alec pushed Agent 23 over the railing.

Bree used the hook of her staff to latch onto the back of Agent 23's uniform to keep him from falling, tilting her head at Alec. "Come on, man."

Alec elbowed Agent 24 in the face, making him fall unconscious.

Bree used her staff to pull Agent 23 up over the railing, throwing him into the wall, making him fall.

Bucky broke the railing, swinging down the stairs, kicking Agent 25 through a door.

Steve pushed Agent 26 into the wall, using his uniform hook to dangle him from the railing.

Alec kneed Agent 27 in the stomach, punching him in the face, kicking him in the stomach, making him fall.

Agent 28 aimed his gun at Bucky to shoot.

Steve threw his shield into Agent 28, hitting him in the head, making him fall unconscious, wedging the shield in the wall.

Bucky swung down the broken railing to continue down the stairs.

Alec jumped over the railing, catching the railing a few feet down, denting it, groaning in pain.

Bree pulled the shield out of the wall, throwing it up to Steve.

Steve caught the shield.

Alec climbed over the railing, walking down the hallway, seeing a window leading to the rooftop he had thrown his back, running toward the window, crashing through it, making it shatter, landing on the edge of the rooftop across the way, rolling over onto it fully. He grabbed his bag from the rooftop, standing, running.

Black Panther ran closer, kicking Alec in the head, making him fall and drop the bag, standing. Metal claws came out of his gloves.

Alec stood, trying to punch Black Panther. Black Panther raised an arm to block the move, kicking Alec in the chest, not having much affect on the metal. Alec tried to punch him. Black Panther ducked, trying to punch Alec. Alec raised an arm to block the move. Black Panther slashed his claws toward Alec. Alec ducked, punching Black Panther twice.

Bucky ran up to the window that Alec had crashed through, seeing the fight between Alec and Black Panther on the roof.  He backed away, running toward the window, landing on the roof, rolling closer.

Black Panther tried to stab Alec in the head with his metal claws. Bucky ran closer, holding his metal arm above Alec's head to make him scratch metal instead.

Bree ran up to the window. "Steve, southwest rooftop."

Steve ran closer. "Who the hell is the other guy?"

Bree backed away from the window. "We're about to find out."

Bree ran toward Steve and the window, jumping up.

Steve caught Bree, throwing her across the way carefully so that her landing wasn't as close to the edge as Alec and Bucky's were.

Steve ran closer, jumping to the rooftop.

Bucky pushed Black Panther away from Alec.

Alec stood.

A helicopter flew closer, firing at them.

"Sam?" Steve asked.

Sam flew closer. "Got it."

Sam kicked the wing of the helicopter, making him stop firing, flying away.

Alec grabbed his bag, running toward the edge of the rooftop, jumping down to a ledge below, jumping from ledge to ledge until he reached the ground.

Bucky used his metal arm to scratch along the side of the building to land on the ground next to Alec.

Black Panther clawed his way into the wall, jumping down the building, running after them.

Alec and Bucky jumped down into a car tunnel, running down the road.

Black Panther, Bree and Steve followed.

 A police officer drove after them. "Stand down! Stand down!"

Steve jumped onto the windshield, making them stop, breaking the glass. He opened the car door, pulling the officer out, kicking the windshield off, getting into the car, driving after the others.

Alec and Bucky ran through the traffic.

Black Panther followed.

Bree ran over the cars, jumping down to continue running after them.

Steve drove ahead of Black Panther and Bree, pulling to a stop in front of Black Panther to bring him to a stop, buying Bree enough time to run after Alec and Bucky. He gave Bree enough of a running start, driving along, trying to shake Black Panther off the back of his car. "Sam, I can't shake this guy."

"Right behind you," Sam told him.

More officers drove through the tunnel.

Steve pushed his car into theirs to distract them.

More officers drove into the tunnel from in front of Alec and Bucky.

Alec and Bucky ran away, having to change course.

Bree jumped over water tanks that they ran past. 

A man on a motorcycle drove closer.

Bree grabbed the handlebar of the motorcycle, using the hook of her staff to latch into the man's shirt, gently swinging him off to the ground out of the way of the traffic so he didn't get hurt, making the bike spin around her, jumping onto the bike all in one fluid movement, following Alec and Bucky through the tunnel.

Steve followed in his car with Black Panther still on the back of his car.

Sam flew into the tunnel from behind them.

Black Panther jumped from Steve's car to Bree's bike, slashing into her tires to make the bike lose control and make her flip of it to the ground.

Sam flew closer.
