[As Bucky reaches out, the electricity sears through him. His presence is stripped back to his roots again and the programming goes dark. The Soldier breaks into a dozen different pieces as he becomes dead weight in the water. There's no fighting back or an attempt to drown both of them. He sucks in water with every involuntary breath as he floats toward the surface even without Sam's help. With those extra kicks, though, his head breaks the surface in a matter of seconds, eyes shut.
Bucky darts for the remains of the jade tower with what few piecemeal fragments he can gather. He doesn't want them to try again, not now. Right now, they need to keep the programming from rising to life again. He can't watch himself hurt Sam anymore.]
