zemo only said a few words, but ginny knew right away that getting information from him was gonna be difficult.

his trademark smirk was plastered on his scarred face, and he sat leisurely against the wall.

"there's no point in lying. i already know about diane. all i need from you is her location." she stands on the other side of his cell with her arms crossed.

"and what makes you think she wants to be found?" he fires back. "i knew her location years ago, who knows if she's still there."

"in her situation she's not safe moving locations. i know more than you think, zemo."

he says nothing.

"and don't you dare ask what's in it for you, because as far as i can tell- let me know if i'm wrong- you're trapped in the most secure prison in the world."

zemo isn't fazed. "i will not help you find an at risk super soldier unless i know the full story."

ginny's fed up at this point, seeing as she's on a bit of a time crunch. her hands grasp the bars on his cell. "i'm not gonna fucking ask again, zemo. people are in danger because of an otherworldly higher being, a few guns and tanks will do nothing. we need strong power."

he still says nothing.

"i could find skilled soldiers across the whole world. do you think i would come here and find you, just to fight off a few bad guys?" her tone is harsh but still leathery. "there's only one thing keeping me from tearing these bars open and strangling you to get that information. i'm trying to be reasonable here." she cracks her knuckles for emphasis.

"she's in the same place she's always been. the poor woman is trapped in her mind, petrov. she's trapped in her mind, which is trapped in her poison ridden body, which is trapped behind bars." his playful attitude vanished long ago and his words are like knives. "she couldn't control herself, ginny. just like me, just like barnes who was put under ice-"

"don't talk to me about barnes, zemo." she cuts him off. "are you telling me that she's in a prison?"

he smiles. "not just any prison." zemo fans his hands out to show off the jail.

"thank you." ginny smiles fakely at zemo and heads to the front desk.

"oh and ginny!" zemo yells after her. "good luck breaking into the most secure prison in the world!"
