📍STEVE'S APARTMENT
Y/N grunted in pain as the tongs dug through the bloody, bullet hole on her left upper arm. The tongs clicked slightly as it came in contact with the bullet in her and Fury pulled it out. He dropped the blood-coated bullet on the carpet and threw the tongs aside.
"We were followed here," she said grabbing a T-shirt and leaning back on the chair next to Fury.
He pulled out his phone and typed something: I know
Frowning, she snatched the phone from him and typed: Why are you not speaking?
She showed it to him and he gave her a 'really?' look. He took it back and typed: They're listening.
Y/N nodded and Fury typed something again: They came after you too? She nodded again and he continued to type: How'd you make it out?
Then Y/N typed about how they chased her on her bike and how the Winter Soldier shot her. When she reached the part about Ivan helping her, Fury interrupted.
Wait, Agent Lee gave you a lift?
Yeah, I know. I don't trust him though. Homophobic asshole. Y/N typed and showed.
And why not? Fury had a look of amusement and eagerness.
I mean, how did he manage to track me? When I couldn't reach AIDA? Either he was with them, or he was following me. Either way, his plan was to get close to me and in the end, throw me under the bus.
Fury saw this and smirked. I'm impressed, Dmitri.
Y/N smirked back and nodded with a proud look. Both turned around when they heard footsteps and saw Steve peeping from the kitchen wall. He straightened up and leaned against the wall, "I don't remember giving you a key."
"You really think I'd need one?" asked Fury as Y/N stood up from the couch, "My wife kicked me out," Fury leaned forward.
"I didn't know you were married." Y/N rolled her eyes. Who in the right mind would marry Nick Fury? But Fury nodded and went along, "A lot of things you don't know about me."
"I know, Nick. That's the problem," Steve lit the lamp next to Fury and saw the wounds and bruises on Fury's and Y/N's faces. That's when he noticed Y/N was pressing one of his shirts to her left arm which was now soaked in blood. He opened his mouth to question this, but Fury held up a hand to remain silent and turned off the lamp. He showed his phone to Steve: Ears Everywhere.
A look of realization came on Steve's face, "I'm sorry we had to do this," Fury continued, "We had no place to crash." He showed his screen again: S.H.I.E.L.D compromised. Steve turned to Y/N and she nodded in confirmation.
"Who else knows about your wife?" asked Steve.
Fury stood up and showed his phone again: You, me, and Y/N. "Just my friends," he said aloud.
"Is that what we are?"
"That's up to you."
Bullets passed through the wall and hit Y/N and Fury. She managed to duck and crawl to a chair to avoid the second bullet from hitting her, but Fury didn't. He fell to the ground with a yell and Steve dragged him to the kitchen.
Y/N saw him murmur something to Steve slump unconscious on the floor. She crossed her fingers, hoping he would just hang in there. Steve kneeled next to Y/N and removed her hand to check the wound. Her black suit was coated with dried red and her hands were warm from the same blood.
The door banged open and a blonde with a gun held up walked in, "Captain Rogers?"
Steve stood up and saw his neighbour walk in, "I'm Agent 13 of S.H.I.E.L.D Special Service. "
"Kate?" he asked and even in the painful and drowsy state, Y/N couldn't help but snort.
"I'm assigned to protect you," she said and walked past him.
"On who's order?"
She stopped in front of Fury's unconscious body, "His." She looked up and her eyes widened, "Y/N?"
"Hey Carter," smiled Y/N and winced, "Ugh." She shook her head as her vision grew hazy and the blood kept passing through her fingers.
"Y/N?"
She looked up and saw a blurry image of Steve kneeling beside her. His voice sounded as though he was far away and she felt herself zoned in and out of consciousness.
"Hey," She felt him pat her cheek to make her stay awake. But her eyes gave out and she fell into darkness.
