Born To Die

by Ssuperrad

I never knew when I suggested him for this project that it would turn our lives upside down the way it has. I never realized the dangers we would face, the heartache we would feel or the sadness it would bring. My name is Edith Elizabeth Barnes. James Buchanan Barnes is my twin brother, I am in love with Steven Rogers... and we are all three... born to die.

Hello All,

So this is a re-write of one of my earlier stories, and I'm proud to say that I'm finally very happy with it.

This is the idea that Bucky had a twin sister who was the weaker of the two twins. She was very similar in health to Steve. Edith Barnes has been in love with Steven Rogers since they were children who grew up to become a nurse in the army.

Edith ended up working for Dr. Erskine and the military base that did the Captain America Project, suggesting Steve for the procedure.

This is a pre-story for the Avengers that will be in three parts. This is part one and will cover the time period of when Steve is found and unfrozen to just before the Avengers. The story will also cover the back-story from when Bucky, Steve and Edith were children all the way through Iron Man one and two. It's complicated but stick with it! It will all make sense over time!

Please give the story a chance and I hope you enjoy

Thanks!
