Steve's P.O.V
After Tony's funeral I sat on the bench and looked at the sky knowing that Nat and Tony were both up there enjoying a peaceful after life. I was glad to have the snap reversed and glad that Bucky was back safe.
Bucky turned to me with the gauntlet in his hand. He kind of looked like he knew something that I didn't, so I just smiled dumly.
"Hey Steve, now the endgame has ended who's gonna return the stones back to their rightful place in time?"
I froze hesitating to respond but looking at Thor's hammer I realised what I needed to do. My destiny was simple, all I had to do was return the stone's all by myself carefully.
After moving the time machine we got ready for my travels. I was for sure nervous returning all the stones as I didn't know what to expect.
After saying my goodbyes I breathed heavily as Bruce started the countdown.
First I returned the tesseract to the 1970's and smiled as I walked passed Tony talking to his Dad. Then I went to return the Aether on Asgaurd which was hard since I had to knock her out to suck it back in her. Then I placed Mjolnir down before telporting off to the next timezone.
After that I returned the septor to Hydra so that Wanda and Pedro could be given their powers.
Finally I telported into 2014 but I had a little problem, Starlord spotted me.
"What are you, a banner advertising the american flag,give me that orb now!"
If things couldn't get any more worse he point his gun right at my chest. I tried to run but he caught me, so I had to tell him everything and once I had again caused a ulternate timeline, I handed him the orb and stole a shuttle to vormir.
My heart froze, being in the same place Nat died was awful. I dropped my case and starred at the cold sunset, I grabbed a
bouquet of flowers and threw it down the cliff. It had a note attached saying
"Thanks, for everything Nat you where the most courageous woman id ever met!"
Once I walked to the top what I sore, gave me haunting memories of the past. It was red skull dressed in black and I then remembered the tesseract telporting him somewhere. Wait the tesseract must have turned him into the keeper of the soul stone and telported him on Vormmir!
This was mega awkward, red skull greeted me and I could tell he had the same look of awkwardness on his face.
"Steven, son of Sarah and Joseph Rodgers."
"Johann Schmidt."
I stopped walking and could only watch as red skull, floated closer giving me a hard cold glare
"You are way too late, I'm afraid the stone has been taken!"
"Actually I've come to return it!"
Red skull froze in shock and gave me another cold calculating glare.
"Really? This is very unexpected, follow me"
He lead me to the edge of the cliff and made me squeeze the soul stone tight.
"In order to return the stone, you must make a sacrificial wish then throw the stone down the cliff!"
I had to think long and hard about what I wanted but as I thought about it I realised my deepest desire, to live the life that I never got to live. That way I could both rescue Bucky and mentor him.
Once I threw the stone down the cliff, the ground started to shake and I woke up on a sofa that look like it was from the forties. Peggy stood over me and smiled,
"Welcome home Captain Rodgers!"

Bucky's P.O.V
My head has hurt emensly ever since I rescued my former best friend. I was in hiding trying to live a quiet life, finding out about as much about my past life as I could.
I was sat in the living room going through all my notes. So I'd died in world war two on a mission whilst Steve Rodgers Sacrificed himself. I jotted down my memories of what I knew and began to piece together a timeline. Yes fragments of my memories had come back due to the brain washing thing wearing off slowly but the other half were blocked completely.
My coffee was boiling hot and I turned to look at the clock. For sure it was late and I had been up trying to solve this mystery. If hydra had indeed brain washed me, they'd done it well, as all I wanted to do deep down was kill. Therapy can't undo the mistakes I've made.
The door bell rang and I jolted up very alarmed as nobody can find me, if they did find me numerous bad things could happen. I hesitated but still walked further and further to the door. My hand julted opening the door and to my suprise it was a old man holding a cane, he was soaked through.
"It took me a while to find you, Bucky but I had to as you know I'm with you till the end of the line and I only have ten years of my life left!"
I froze feeling mega confused,
"Steve?"
I questioned?
He nodded in response!
I kind of acted like a idiot, as I didn't know what to think, five weeks ago my former friend was young and nearly dead but now he was a frail old man.
Poor Steve stood there for ten minutes analysingmy expressions and movement.
I finally had the gut to speak!
"Sorry I'm very overwhelmed and confused right now, come in!"
I sat Steve down and threw him a towel so that he could dry off. Then I turned the fire on and handed him some hot coco.
Soon the holes of my past would be complete but the thing was I don't know how but this old Steve was jogging my memory.
To Be Continued...
I hope the people who bothered to read this story enjoyed. I have mild Dyslexia so it's tough creating perfect stories but I try.
This five chapter story will have plot holes because it's based on a Endgame theory I have. This theory I have is that Bucky knew old Cap would be there to hand over the shield. It also partly takes place during the second and third Cap movie as I think Bucky did meet old Cap.
Peace!
