Description "FREEZE!!"

You were only vaguely able to notice the screams of the museum visitors around you before the order was screamed. You hand went from Bucky's cheek to his his grasp in an instant as he pulled you behind him, a defensive growl in his throat. 

The entrance to the exhibit was blocked by a group of SWAT police, and you noted with mounting panic that they were armed. You could feel the kickstart of adrenaline race through your veins as you stared at the barrel of a pistol.

"Bucky..." You murmured, fear evident in your voice. The dark haired soldier's grip on your hand tightened in a small response. 

"Put your hands behind your head!"

You could feel the shaking in your hands as you clung to Bucky, eyes wide with terror. He remained still, muscles taut, eyes drawn forward towards the police brigade. 

"Run"

You stared at Bucky in shock. He must have noticed, because his gaze flicked towards you. Dark eyes clashed with your own, and in an instant, you were running, bolting for the opposite exit to the exhibit. 

"Open fire!"

You couldn't help the scream that let loose from your throat as the sound of bullets ripping through the air met your ears. You wanted desperately to turn, to race back to Bucky, but you forbid yourself from carrying through. Instead you bolted for the other end of the exhibit, shoving your way through the crowd that was draining from the museum. Your heartbeat hammered loudly in your ears as you followed the flow of the crowd, remembering to put your hood up as you exited the building. 

There were police swarming the mall as soon as you stepped outside. You could spot at least three trucks with the telltale SWAT sign printed on them. Police lined the path leading to the museum, but the crowd moved quickly enough that they didn't spot you. 

As the swarm of people reached the end of the path, people began to disperse. It was then that you choose the smartest course of action, and that was walking quickly away from the scene, so as not to draw attention. Yet somehow you still managed to get away from the building without being spotted, taking the time to glance behind you to see if Bucky had escaped. Worry filled your chest as you scanned the crowd for him. Was he still in there? Did he get captured? Had he been shot?!

And yet, before you could formulate the answers to those questions, there was a scream and the shattering of glass. Your head whipped abruptly to the left, your hood flying away from your face. You could only catch a glance of dark hair before suddenly, your arm was seized and you were being roughly dragged along. Bucky stared ahead of him, his metal hand still wrapped around your wrist tightly. 

Behind you, you could here the sound of police sirens, wailing into the afternoon air. You cast a quick glance over your shoulder, noting the small parade of cop cars appearing down the street. The crowd in front of you divided as you ran, making way for the two fugitives on the run. You could hear the blood rushing in your ears, thrumming loudly in your temples. You tried to keep your eyes looking forward, but you couldn't help but notice the cop cars drawing ever closer to the both of you.

You didn't have time to think about that, for suddenly Bucky was veering left, past the museum and towards the busier part of town. The cop cars rounded the corner as soon as you did. You screamed, you voice full of desperation and fear as the cop car drove past you and blocked the road in front of you. But Bucky didn't stop. Before the driver could pull his gun, you both were scrambling over the hood of the car, the metal squeaking under the rubber of your soles. 

your were off and running again as the small swarm of cars tried to form itself again. It gave you just enough time to dart left, past a set of offices and towards the tunnel that led towards Maine avenue. 

Bucky let go of your wrist, launching himself over the wall that separated you from the tunnel. You hesitated, but followed through soon enough, trying and failing to hold in a scream as the ground rushed up to meet you. Yet strong arms were suddenly under you, catching you as you fell. You had just enough time to gasp a thanks before you were on your feet again, jogging down the dimly lit tunnel. 

Thank goodness it was rush hour, for the tunnel was packed with cars. There was no way for police to get through. Because of this, you were able to slow your pace to a steady jog instead of a grueling sprint. 

You couldn't help but wonder, however. Where were you two headed? It was obvious the entire city was on the lookout for you both, it was no longer safe to stay in DC. But without a car or some means of transportation, it was impossible to get out. 

As if sensing your thoughts, Bucky was suddenly supplying an answer: 

"We need to find a place to lay low until tonight. Then we can find a way out."

You nodded, but couldn't help but notice the strained sound of his voice. You couldn't tell if it was fear or pain.

You decided to brush it off, continuing to follow your companion down the tunnel and away to safety. 

Or so you hoped.
