Summary
“It’s not a good time,” Bucky says gruffly.
“Can I just talk to you for a minute?” Steve asks. “I tried to call you four times.”
Bucky’s eyes widen at that and he breathes in sharply. “Phone’s broken,” he explains, an edge of something frantic to his voice.
“Do you need a new one?” Steve asks, his gaze catching on a disassembled light hanging from a few cables in the middle of Bucky’s ceiling.
“No. Don’t…” he notices Steve glancing inside, squeezes through the gap in the doorway, and shuts the door behind him. “You need to leave, Steve.”

Summary
A diagram of unfamiliar symbols is drawn on the ground around where Ford is sitting.
He stands up and catches himself on a shelf as his body protests the movement, sudden lightheadedness knocking him off-balance.
He shakes it off and a new sensation shoots through him, a sharp pain in his left arm that radiates all the way to his shoulder. He searches for the source and finds a large tear in the sleeve of his jacket.
And beyond that, blood. Seeping out of a wound he has no recollection of occurring.Series

As the seconds turn into minutes, as the screaming continues, he realizes that he doesn’t know why he’s here, doesn’t know if his handler is here with him, doesn’t know who the prisoner next to him is.

Words scrambled in an unrecognizable pattern bounce off the walls of the empty hallway, and the hair stands up on his right arm, but he can’t remember what’s put him so on edge.
