"Vision, I got a bandit on my six. Vision! You copy? Target his thrusters, turn him into a glider." I hear Rhodey come in over comms, knocking me back to reality. I see Sam, Rhodey and Tony chasing after the now airborne Quinjet. Vision comes from behind them and shoots at Sam who dodges it, hitting Rhodey instead. He starts to fall, no sign of power in his suit.

"Shit, RHODES!" I shout as I grab Wanda, running over.

"Rhodey!" Tony turns around, chasing Rhodey to the ground. I super speed over until I am below him and use my powers to suppress his fall. He lands more gently than he would without my powers and groans as I pull off his helmet.

"You alright, man?" I say and he just groans once again.

"Yeah...sorry for hurting your girl."

"It's okay, she's alright."

Wanda and Sam come up behind us, Tony joining.

"I gotta get to Cap and Barnes," Tony mumbles, anger now filling him. I go to stop him but government officials pull up, stopping us both.

Secretary Ross appears, agents piling out of trucks to take everyone on Cap's side in.

"Wait, no. No don't touch her." I go to stop them from taking Wanda but they just aim their guns at me, warning me to stand down.

Wanda doesn't put up a fight. She just allows them to take her, knowing she can't fight the government or else it'll be worse. They cuff Sam and Clint, then the mini/big dude.

"This what you wanted, Tony?" Clint spits at him before getting in the van. I notice them putting some sort of collar on Wanda. They hit a button and it shocks her, causing her to fall to her knees in pain. I ball up my fists, blue energy raging off of them as I go to attack.

"What are you doing to her! Let her go now!"

"Kid! Calm down." Tony grabs me but I slap him off, "Calm down?! How could you let this happen! You have to do something Tony! They're hurting her!"

Wanda looks at me miserably before closing her eyes, allowing them to take her.

"Stop! I SAID STOP!" I shoot at one of their trucks, blowing it up, causing everyone to scream and dodge the explosion.

Ross shouts for them to stop me but I grunt and hold up my hands.

"Take one more goddamn step and I blast you all to China. Do it! Go for it! I'd like to see you try."

They start to lower their guns on Ross' command and I make my way to the truck, ripping the doors off. Wanda looks at me in confusion.

"Y/N, you'll only make it worse. You need to let me go."

"No. I promised you I wouldn't let them touch you. Now let's go." I go to pick her up but she shakes her head, crying out when the collar shocks her again.

"Just stop. I'll be okay."

I feel my eyes brimming with tears as panic starts to flood in. I can't lose her. I can't let them just lock her up. I can't do that.

"I can't lose you."

She offers a gentle smile before looking at my hands and glancing up at me.

"What do you feel," she whispers.

I lift my fingers and place them on her forehead, using my powers to feel inside. I see her and us kissing, smiling, being us. Then I can feel her trust in me, I can feel her predictions. She knows she'll get out, that I'll get her. She knows I won't leave her like this.

"Now's not the time. You have to let me go my love."

I close my eyes and press my forehead against hers, then kiss her before I nod, pulling away. Her eyes are duller than usual, probably thanks to the damn collar they threw on her but she still manages to smile at me.

"I love you, Y/N."

They shut the doors once again and I hang my head in defeat.

"She gets emotional sometimes. Women, am I right?" Tony tries to laugh off the ruckus I just caused but Ross only stares me down before taking off in the trucks.

"Tony-" "I know! Okay?! Jesus. Let's just...come on."

We get in a car to go back to the compound, the entire trip is silent. Peter is seated next to me, recording on his phone. I glare at it, then at him, "seriously, Kid? What is this, reality TV? Turn that thing off before I blast it to smithereens." I allow my eyes to gloss over to blue but Nat places her hand on my forearm, "Y/N. He's just a kid. Let it go."

Peter puts his phone away and hangs his head, making me feel bad for scaring him.

"I'm sorry Kid. I-crap. I'm Y/N, you did good work today." I reach out my hand and instantly he is brought back to that giddy little smile, shaking it proudly.

"Peter! You looked so cool out there by the way! You were all blast blast pew pew! You and Wanda looked so awesome!"

I let a small chuckle escape my lips while I nod in appreciation, then turn to look out the window.

"She'll be alright, you know."

Natasha's voice pulls my attention back and I take a breath as I try and imagine what they're doing to her. She's a bigger threat compared to the others, so she is most likely isolated from everyone, alone, tired, weak, scared. I need to find her.

"Where were they taken?"

She takes a moment, thinking of whether or not she should tell me. How could she not want to tell me? Is she serious?

"Don't think I don't know what you did. You could've stopped them. But you didn't. You let Steve go, meaning you think he is right. So if that's how you see it, you'll tell me what you know."

When she looks at me it stings a little bit. She is looking at me as if I am a stranger, but her look relaxes when she sees how clearly heartbroken I am right now. She knows how worried I am, how guilty I feel.

"It's not your fault."

"I should've protected her more. I let Clint take her out of the compound. If I didn't then she would still be here. Not locked up in some secret prison."

For a moment it's silent, all I can hear is Peter playing some game on his phone, stealing looks at us every so often to try and act like he isn't eavesdropping. But he is. He's a cute kid, I'll give him that, but he needs to be sharper, needs to be trained.

"They're on the Raft. It's an underwater prison."

I nod and start to look it up on my phone but Natasha grabs me, "Y/N...Steve was right."

Frowning, I turn back to her, "go on."

"That doctor was a fraud...he's making more soldiers. His name is Zemo."

That name instantly brings me back. I can see the chair I was in, feel the shocks going through me, feel the serum, hear those words.

"Longing, rusted, seventeen."

I shake my head and shout, "stop the car."

"Y/N, we can't just stop-" "STOP THE FUCKING CAR!" I scream, my powers heating up. Natasha grabs me, trying to talk me down but I can't hear. The car screeches to a stop and I open the door, falling out of it as I stumble to find my balance. I lean against a stone pillar, breathing heavily as the memories flood in.

He approaches me with the journal, glancing down and taking a deep breath.

"Zhelaniye. Rzhavyy." I grunt, feeling something starting to take my over. My brain starts to ache, I can feel my memories being pulled from me.

"Stop it," I huff but he doesn't, he just keeps going.

"Semnadtsat'. Rassvet. Pech'."

I scream, trying to break free from being strapped in, screaming at him.

"LET ME GO!"

"Devyat'. Dobroserdechnyy.."

My mind shows me Wanda, I hold onto it, the vision the mind stone gave me, her kissing me, her eyes. I see Nat smiling at me, training, laughing. Tony hugging me, us as kids. The memories, they're starting to disappear. Every word this idiot speaks, the memories go away.

"Y/N, hey you're okay. It's just me. What's going on?" Natasha's hand is on my back but I shove her away, crying out as I hold my head. I claw inside, trying to find Wanda somewhere. I search anywhere I can for her warmth, just a sliver of her.

"Please, Wanda, come on." I wince as the memories continue. It's like I can feel the shocks again, I can feel the torture. I can feel all of it. I see Zemo, I see the book.

Before I know it I am doubled over, throwing up all over the side of the road.

"What's going on?" Tony gets out of the car but Nat waves him off. She moves in front of me, moving us slightly so she can kneel down to look me in the eyes, hands on either side of my face.

"I need you to talk to me now. What's happening?"

The pads of her thumbs brush over my skin, her eyes wide with concern but soft with care. I try to read her mind but don't want to make anything in my head worse so I just focus on my breathing.

"Zemo. He's the one who...he's the one who said those things to control my mind. He's the one who did it. He's in control of the Winter Soldier. H-he..." I hang my head and breathe heavily again but Natasha just hugs me, allowing me to cry.

"It's alright. You're safe now. We have you back. We just need to stop him from making any more now."

Nodding, I let her help me to my feet and walk back to the car. Peter makes room and we sit in silence, my head on Nat's shoulder as we go and drop Peter off. The longer I sit here calming down, the more I think about Wanda and that damn collar. I think long and hard, trying to focus on reaching her, like how she did me when I was with Hydra. I think about her eyes and her thoughts, about her heart.

That's when I feel her. I want to smile but I can't, because all I can feel is her sorrow, her emptiness. She's exhausted, her strength is being contained by something. I can feel her now, I know I can. She's alive but she isn't okay. She needs me.
