"Look, here's the thing, uh, I'm not Tony Stark. I'm not Dr.Banner right? I don't have the flashiest gadgets, I don't have super strength. But what I do have is guts. Something Captain America always had, always needs to have, and I'm gonna need every ounce of it. Because I got big shoes to fill."

"Did you know Steve Rogers?"

"I was two years out of West Point when Steve came back on the scene. I followed his career very closely as an Avenger. I like to think that I modeled my work after his."

"So you've always wanted to be a hero?"

"I liked that what I was doing would make people feel safe. Steve Rogets was the kind of guy who could do that, he gave me hope. So even though I never met him, he feels like a brother."

Bucky flinched as a remote flew past his head, smashing into the tv as it cracked and the screen went black.

Daphne huffed, clenching her fist as she stormed into the kitchen, pouring herself a shot before she decided to just drink straight from the bottle.

Turning to face the stove, she looked down as frustrated tears poured from her eyes.

"Daphne-"

"I'm fine" she growled, gripping the counter top until her knuckles turned white.

"You're crying" he said, trying to reach for her but she jerked her arm back as she turned to dace him, her breathing jagged.

"I said I'm fine" she said, furiously wiping the tears from her cheeks.

Bucky nodded, glancing at the tv before looking back at her. "I'm gonna go talk to Sam" he said. "You should come."

Daphne scoffed. "If Sam wanted to talk to me he would've called instead of letting me find out from the news that he gave up the shield."

"Okay, then I'll-" he was cut off as her phone started beeping.

Picking it up she didn't say anything to him as she answered whatever text she was getting.

"I have to go. I'm late" she said.

"What? Go where?" he asked.

"Work" she said, grabbing her keys before she walked out, slamming the doors behind her.

"Thanks for doing this on such short notice" Sam said.

"Yeah. No sweat. I'm just finishing up the checklist. You'll be all good to go once you land in Munich" Torres said as he and Sam walked across the hangar.

Hearing a familiar voice call out Sam turned and sighed.

"You shouldn't have given up the shield" Bucky said.
