innocent

you'll never know the murderer sitting next to you

The elevator doors of the Hydra place in Siberia opened. Steve had opened them. When he did, Cecelia brought her hand gun up. Making sure no one was outside.

The 3 super soldiers cautiously went through the building, watching their steps, making sure no one was found. Bucky was focused on two things. Finding this bastard, and keeping Cecelia safe.

They went up the steps, halfway. They heard a loud thud and they turned around. Bucky was behind Cecelia, and Steve was in front of her. His shield in front of him, being ready to protect the two at any cost.

"You ready?" Steve asked them, Bucky responded for the two of them.

"Yes." He said as Cecelia cocked her hand gun. The doors opened, slowly, and a light shined through the cracks.

Tony Stark stood there, prying the doors open with his suit on. He walked out of the elevator, his mask coming off of his face, making small noises as it did.

He walked towards the super soldiers, Steve walking off the steps. Cecelia went to follow behind, but Bucky grabbed the back of her belt, pulling her back. His hands went back on his gun as Cecelia got the message from him.

"You seem a little defensive." Tony said, Cecelia shook her head at his jokes.

"It's been a long day." Steve said back as he walked towards him.

"At ease, Soldiers. I'm not currently after you guys." He said to the assassins. Cecelia's gun didn't move, nor did Bucky's. Their guard didn't go down either.

"Then why are you here?" Steve asked him, Tony shrugged his shoulders a bit.

"Maybe your story's not so crazy. Maybe. Ross has no idea I'm here. I'd like to keep it that way." He told Steve as he walked towards him. "Otherwise, I gotta arrest myself." Tony said, stoping in his tracks.

"Well, that sounds like a lot of paperwork." Steve said, Tony scoffed as Steve put his shield down, it no longer protecting him.
"It's good to see you, Tony." Steve said, Tong nodded his head in agreement.

"You too, Cap." Tony said, his eyes then trailing over to Cecelia and Bucky. Their guns still pointed at him. "Hey, Manchurian Candidates, you're killing me. There's a truce here. You can drop..." Tony said, Steve turned his head to look at them. He put his hand out, signaling for them to be at ease. They put their guns down.

They followed Tony and Steve, looking for Zemo. They never let their guard down, not one of them. Tony put his mask back on, and Cecelia and Bucky put their guns up, and Steve held his shield in front of him.

"I'm getting heat signals." Tony said, his hand out in front of him.

"How many?" Steve asked.

"Uh, one." Tony answered, they walked into a room. When they stepped foot in, lights turn on, revealing 5 Cyro-freeze pods. Every single person in their pod dead.

Cecelia's heart dropped to her stomach. The people, the soldiers who were dead, they all had the serum coursing through them. Cecelia and Bucky killed people for that serum, and it all went to waste.

They walked in further, and a speaker turned on. "If it's any comfort, they died in their sleep." Someone said through the speakers, it was Zemo.

Cecelia and Bucky walked towards some of the body, recognizing a few of them.

"Do you really think I wanted more of you?" Zemo asked as Bucky walked around with Cecelia behind him.

"What the hell?" Bucky asked, as Steve and Tony stared in shock.

"I'm grateful for them, though. They brought you here." Zemo said, revealing himself through a window. Tony put his hand out, ready to shoot, Steve threw his shield, but it bounced back at him. "Please, Captain. The soviets built this chamber to withstand the launch blast of UR-100 rockets." Zemo told him, Tony shot back at him.
