New story! Let me know if you hate Rhodey after this. Thanks you SwifteForeverAndAlways.
It was a little while after beating Apocalypse and James was enjoying the newfound respect he had gained from his mother. Unknown to James, a figure was making his way to him. The figure reached forward and wrapped a hand around James' mouth. James struggled against the figure.
"Night Rogers" James passed out. The figure lifted James up and carried him off...James woke a while later, tied to a chair. James blinked and looked around, trying to see where he was and who took him.
"Whoever you are, you just kidnapped a general's son" "I know." A voice replied. "So let me go before she kills you" "No...I want her to find us. Now shut up Rogers" James growled lowly.
"Time to muzzle ya." The figure pulled out a length of cloth and knotted it in the center, shoving the knot into James' mouth. As he choked on it, the rest of the cloth was tied behind his head. James yelled into the gag, but it was too muffled for anyone to hear. "Now just to tell your mother I have you..." The figure walked off.
Back at SHIELD Pietro was training with Bucky on how to sense his surroundings. Pietro still found being blind to be a pain in the a** though.
Bucky approached his son from behind, waiting to see if Pietro would sense him. Bucky was right behind Pietro when he spun around and swung at Bucky, and pinned him down. "You are getting better, son." Bucky said telepathically.
"Thank you father" "But you still have a ways to go." With that, Bucky flipped out from underneath Pietro and rolled to his feet. Pietro took up a fighting stance, as did Bucky.
Bucky began to throw punches at Pietro, seeing if he would dodge them. Pietro was able to dodge most of them, but a few did hit. After a particularly brutal hit knocked Pietro down, Bucky extended his hand to his son.
"Thanks." Pietro grunted as he stood up, taking Bucky's extended hand. "Maximoff, General Romanoff needs you" Pietro nodded and headed off to Natasha.
Pietro walked in to see Steve and Natasha arguing...again. He looked around to see if he was the only one of their team to be there. Bobbi walked in.
Pietro sensed someone walked in and turned to that direction, "Hey." Hey." Bobbi replied. Pietro smiled upon realizing who it was.
"Hey." Pietro smiled as she sat next to him. "How's life being blind?" "Not too fun. But my father has been working on making it easier to rely on my other senses."
The two listened in on Steve and Natasha's argument. "Wonder where James is." Bobbi wondered aloud, "He hasn't been seen all day."
Pietro shrugged as Natasha's comm beeped, breaking up the argument between her and Steve. Natasha frowned as she pulled up the video.
Natasha gasped at the video. James was tied to a chair, the sign of the Black Dragon in the background. "Oh my god" Bobbi said. Pietro looked up in concern, "What's wrong?"
"Black Dragon has James." Bobbi murmured. Pietro swore lowly. Natasha watched the video with anger in her eyes. Her son. Kidnapped by her enemies. "Pietro tell your sister and Barton to fire up the jet"
"Yes ma'am." Pietro nodded. Pietro headed off to tell his sister and Barton to prep the jet. Natasha looked at Bobbi, "Find where the hell this video came from. Where it was sent from."
"Yes ma'am." Bobbi nodded and went off to do as Natasha said. Steve put his hand on Natasha's shoulder, "James is strong. He'll get through this."
Natasha didn't reply, she just glared at the screen.
Back at the Black Dragon hideout, James was still tied up. James struggled against his ties, but it didn't work. The door opened then, and Rhodey walked into the room.
"You're a pretty boy. Just like your mum." Rhodey drawled. Rhodey cupped James' chin and studied his face, "Too bad I'm going to have to mess it up." James yanked his face out of Rhodey's hands.
Rhodey 'tsk'd' and punched James in the stomach. James let out a grunt of pain as Rhodey hit him on teeth back of the head. James grunted in pain again as Rhodey followed it up with a punch to the face.
Rhodey stepped back and looked at his handiwork, James was bleeding from the face. Rhodey smirked as James let out a groan of pain.
Rhodey continued to hit James. James tried not to cry out in pain, keeping it inside him. Rhodey hit him again, knocking James unconscious.
Rhodey frowned as he thought about what he should do. He figured maybe...maybe they could brainwash James...
That was a good idea, Rhodey realized. Brainwashing James. Rhodey undid the ties holding James to the chair and lifted him up, carrying him off.
Rhodey carried James off to a different chamber. Rhodey hooked James up to a machine and waited for the red haired young man to wake up.
t didn't take long for James' eyelids to flutter before opening, revealing his blue eyes that matched his father's.
"You're up, pretty boy." Rhodey commented. James glared at Rhodey. Rhodey smirked at James and turned on the machine, forcing James to stare at it.
"Comply and you will be rewarded." Rhodey said in a monotone. James shook his head, unwilling to listen. "Clear you mind." Rhodey said. "Compliance will be rewarded."
"Are you ready to comply?" James furiously shook his head. Rhodey sighed and started the process up again.
James' resistance fell away the more he listened to the monotone. All he had to do was comply. "Are you ready to comply?" Rhodey asked again. James nodded.
"Good." Rhodey freed him. James stood up and stared at Rhodey with a glazed look in his eyes.
He blinked a few times and the glazed look went away. Rhodey smirked, his plan was going good. He had the General's son on his side, brainwashed to serve him. And thusly, his plan was going good.
Now he just had to return James to them and once James was returned, Rhodey could cause even more problems. Then, maybe, Rhodey would succeed.
That wouldn't be too hard though, especially if he gave James a story as to what had happened. Or maybe...maybe he would let SHIELD save James...
And THEN have James as a mole writhing inside SHIELD. That, to Rhodey, seemed like the best idea of them all.
