Guns where being shot left, right and centre. It was a horrible feeling in my stomach, as if knew something bad was about to happen. I reached for more bullets to put into my gun as we made our way towards the base. It was an abandoned building with a few cars and vans sitting outside. The place looked daunting never mind the fact it was run by hydra.

"I think we lost the element of surprise" I shouted into the coms as I leaned behind a van for cover.

"Y/n! Stop talking shit, we have a job to do" Tony shouted back at me

"Well someone's clearly stressed? Have you tried yoga? I heard it helps with stress and all that" I comment while shooting a few soldiers. I heard a few snickers from the coms and then I decided it was time to move in. No point in being stuck behind a van the whole time.

I did a forward roll and pushed myself to my feet, shoot a few guys while I was at it and making my run for the widow that was open. Guess they didn't think about it or else they weren't planning on being attacked today. As I leap through the window, the glass smashes everywhere. I quickly get to my feet and prepare myself to fight some hydra agents, but to my surprise, the room is empty. No one is about, the room is dark, the only light coming through the window that was just put through. I quickly scan the room again and see a light coming behind the door. Must  e the hallway.

I lift my hand to my ear and press the com, "I'm in" I state. The feedback from the coms is too noises in my hear so I rip out the command throw it to the ground. I take a few steps forward, slowly and quietly.

I lift my gun, ready to fight as I carefully place my other hand on the door handle. I take a deep breath as I gather my thoughts. It's going to be okay. As I carefully open the door, I don't hear any movement from anywhere. I step outside the door, making sure that I had looked to my right and left first. I keep my gun ready at all times. My finger on the trigger.

As I get to the corner I slowly look round, gun pointed at a man, I all most shoot him but then I realise it's good ol' cap. "Clear back there" I whisper as I receive a nod in response.

All of a sudden I see him. He runs the other way and I immediately run after him, Steve tries to grab my arm but I quickly brush him off. He's shouting at my to wait for him as he fights off his own share of hydra soldiers. While running after him, down the dark halls of the base I'm shouting and shooting  at him. I shoot him in the leg as falls to the ground. I run up to him and place my gun to his head, his face is covered by a black mask, his eyes also with glasses.

"Take of the mask and glasses" I command as I hit my gun of his head.

"Why, what difference does it make?" He snaps back. I shoot him in the leg again, a warning, letting him know not to mess with me. He was clutching his his leg wound now, blood gushing out of it.

I hear Steve calling my name as he runs towards me, I keep my eyes on the agent in front of me, looking through his glasses. I rip of his mask and lean in to take of the glasses. Out of nowhere, I feel a sharp pain in the left of my stomach. I gasp as I feel myself slowly falling to the floor and the taste of blood in my mouth. I open my mouth to spit the blood out. I was too scared to look down at my stomach, not wanting to believe what had just happened. I can see Steve in front of me and I can feel him picking me up, the knife had been pulled out which left a hole for all the blood to flow out of.

My vision goes blurry, sounds are also distant, I can hear Steve telling me to hold on, that it was going to be okay, to stay conscience. It's no use, I slowly slip into the darkness.

Steve's POV.

As I punch the last agent that was attacking me I hear in my ear that they have got everything they needed, that we need to go back to the jet before the second wave of soldiers hit us. I shout into the coms for y/n to come back but I hear nothing back. I run in the direction she ran off in, chasing a random agent.

As I turn the corner I see her standing over an agent, then it's as if it's all in slow motion. I know I could never get to them fast enough. I watch, helplessly as he stabs her and pulls the knife back out again. She quickly falls to the ground and I watch her spit up some of the blood.

"Y/n is down, I need some help. I have a hydra agent, GSW in the leg, he's coming back with us too" I shout into the coms. I hear a few questions of concerns, and a lot of questions from Tony but I can't answer them, I don't know if she's going to be okay.

I rip of a piece of the arm on my suit and hold it against the wound, "sorry" I mutter as she winces in pain, I keep tell her to stay with me but I watch as she slowly starts to fade away. Her face is pale, even her lips have lost their colour. I lift her bridal style after placing my shield on my back. I hear footsteps behind my and turn quickly to see it's only Clint and Nat. Both with worried faces on them as they look at her body in my arms.

Clint holds out his arms as he motions for him to take her, as Nat makes the point "you are going to have to help him on to the jet." I reluctantly give hand y/n over, as he starts to make his way back to the jet, we all do, as quick as we can.

I throw a punch to knock out the agent that did this to her. One lunch is all it took to knock him out. I look over at Nat and see her give me a small smile. Almost as if she's proud. Or else one saying she would have done it herself in a matter of seconds.

Hopefully y/n is okay!
