Hi guys! Welcome to 'Remember Me'. *Disclaimer* I UNFORTUNATELY OWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS IN THIS FIC! THEY BELNG TO MARVEL!
Bucky POV
I'm confused, alone and humiliated. Hydra, the organisation that have made me into this monster and used me like their puppet has been abolished and I have failed my mission. Why didn't I kill him? I didn't know him, just like the rest of my targets but there was something about him that made him different. He knew me. However, he didn't know me as the Winter Soldier but as a man named 'Bucky Barnes'. The name haunts me, I hate the fact that it is so unrecognisable but yet so familiar. I've tried to ignore it but the picture of his face in the museum is far too alike to mine and the flashbacks and dreams I have been having lately have been similar to what had happened to Bucky. Too similar.
Maybe my mission was right… No! HE had planted that name into my brain so he could try and escape. He said that stupid name, called me a friend and saved my life to try and gain my trust. Well he can't escape me too easily. I'm glad that I saved him from drowning in that river because now, I will get to see him fight for his life.
Three weeks later…
Finally, I've found him. I watch from the rooftop as he walks out of the bar supporting the man, who had those wings the day the helicarriers went down.
The man is defiantly drunk, judging by the way he was laughing uncontrollably and the fact that he would not be standing if it wasn't for the support of Steve. "You are totally a superhero! How can you still be this sober after eight beers?" the drunken man says loudly.
"I'm not the one who had eight beers" Steve says as he supports Sam's body with his shoulders.
"Oh yeah that was me" the man laughs. "Hey lets go and have another round!"
"I think you've had enough" Steve says and calls for a cab.
"Don't be a party pooper man!" He whines loudly making Steve roll his eyes. "You're supposed to be Captain America! You need to party, talk to the ladies."
"Maybe another night Sam"
"Common" he laughs again. Suddenly two women walk out the bar. "HEY LADIES WANNA TOUCH CAP'S SHIELD? Or you could get my phone number because that's cool too." Sam, I think that's what his name was, shouts waving at the two women.
"Sorry Ladies, he's had too much to drink" Steve apologises. The next thing the taxi pulls up beside the drunken man and my mission. "Okay Sam get in the cab"
"Do I have to?" he whines.
"Yeah" Steve says as he guides Sam into the taxi.
Sam puts his hand on Steve's shoulder "I love you man" he shouts. "Hey everybody this is my best friend in the whole universe!" He announces loudly making Steve roll his eyes.
"Thanks Sam, I'll call you in the morning" he says before shutting the car door. Steve informs the cab driver where to take his friend and gives him some money to cover the cab fare. The next thing the cab is gone.
Steve makes his way behind the bar, towards his motorcycle in the alleyway near the bar. This was my chance, to complete my mission. I hide in the shadows, jumping from rooftop to rooftop ever so often as he walks closer to the motorcycle. He turns ever so often, to look at his surroundings however he is oblivious to the fact that I am so near him, and he is so near to his death. I move closer so I am directly above him. All I have to do now is jump down and he's mine. I breathe, get my knife at the ready and jump. I jump on him.
He tries to react however I'm faster and I pin his arms and legs down and brandish the knife slowly towards his neck. "Finally"
"Bucky" he pleads. Bucky, that name again. He is trying to fool me again.
"That's not going to work this time"
"Bucky" AGAIN!
"Don't call me that! That's not my name" I punch him in the face, causing his lip to bleed.
"What is your name?" he asks. He is making a good point, I never thought about my name before everyone just called soldier. I stare at him not making a sound. He stares at me, why did he care about me so much? We're not best friends like he is claiming us to be, he is my enemy not my friend. The knife in my hand is drawing closer to his face.
"Bucky I know you, and this isn't it. This is Hydra brainwashing you."
"Liar!" I go to stab him with the knife however his hand quickly releases from my grip and pushes the knife away.
He stands up and edges away from me "look I don't want to fight you."
"But I do" I run towards him and swing in for a punch but he dodges. He jumps of the wall and grabs onto the fire escape. I grab the knife before climbing up too and punching him a few times in the stomach.
I go for another punch but he grabs my wrist and quickly alternates from my wrist to my hoodie (I am wearing to cover my arm) He hovers me close to the edge of the fire escape. "Please, don't do this"
I grab the knife and cut his hand, causing him to let go of me. I'm falling off the edge. I hit the ground and I feel my head smack of the pavement. Darkness.
