In the abandoned warehouse I sat near a crack in the wall looking as the choppers flew around Berlin.
"Hey Cap!" I turned around to see Sam.
"What's wrong Sam?" I asked anxiously.
"He's up." I nodded and ran into the room where Bucky sat.
"Stevie." Bucky groaned but before I could walk up to him :I needed to know that he wasn't still in a trance.
"Which Bucky am I talking to?" I asked.
"Your mother's name is Sarah. You used to wear newspapers in your shoes and I was going to propose to you once we got home from the war." I nearly passed out at the last statement.
"You can't read that in a museum." I said smiling walking towards him and holding his hand. .
"Just like that, we're suppose to be cool?"Sam asked me looking wearily at my old flame.
"What did I do? Did I hurt you Stevie?"He asked me seeing the bruise mark on my neck.
"I'm okay but you did enough." I replied looking at him blue eyes meeting piercing blue.
"I knew this would happen. Everything HYDRA put inside me is still there. All he had to do is say the god damn words."He groaned looking at me sadly.
"Who was he?"
"I don't know."
"People are dead. The bombing. The set up. The doctor did all that just to get 10 minutes with you. I need you to do better than "I don't know." Please Buck." I looked at him lovingly like I always did.
"He wanted to know about Siberia. Where I was kept. He wanted to know exactly where."
"Why would he need to know that?"
"Because I'm not the only Winter soldier." He said and began to explain how it happened. The serum, the team, their anger, their mutiny, and worst of all that they were alive and still on ice.
"Who were they?" I asked now standing up after getting him arm out of the press.
"The most elite death squad. More kills than anyone in the HYDRA history. And that was before the serum." Bucky explained.
"They all turned out like you?"Sam asked.
"Worse."
"And the doctor, can he control them?"I asked.
"Enough."Bucky replied.
"He said he wanted to see an empire fall."
"With these guys he can do it. They speak 30 languages, can hide in plain sight, infiltrate, assassinate, destabilize, They can take a whole country down in 1 night. You'd never see them coming.
"This would be a lot easier if we could... If we call Tony."Sam admitted. I ran a hand through my hair.
"Oh, he won't believe us." I groaned.
"Even if he did. Who knows if the Accords will let him help."
"We're on our own."
"Maybe not. I know a guy."
"Go make your calls, we'll be here."
"Last time I saw you I tried to kill you." Bucky said as I sat in front of him.
"You didn't though you saved my life and now we're here." I replied and held the tags out in front of him. "I've never taken them off you know. I have loved you still over all these years."
"I don't deserve you anymore Stevie."
"But I need you more than you know, just please let me in even a small bit." I said pressing my forehead against his. Suddenly his lips brushed against mine and I felt the need to go deeper. "I love you I always have."I said breathless from the kiss.
"I love you too, but we have to go now." He said and I nodded. Sam had found a blue VW bug and we made our way to a rendezvous spot I had set up with Aaron who managed to get our gear.
"I'm not sure you understand the concept of a getaway car." He said smirking.
"It's low profile." I replied.
"Good, 'cause this stuff tends to draw a crowd." He lifted up the trunk of his Audi to reveal mine and Sam's gear.
"It looks like I owe you again."
"I'm keeping a list. You know, he kind of tried to kill me."
"Sorry, I'll put it on the list. They're going to come looking for you."
"I know."
"Thank you, Aaron." I said and then he tried to kiss me. I put my hand up.
"I'm sorry I'm kind of..." I nodded to the car.
"I get it you lost each other for seventy years. Just know I'll always be there for you."
"And I appreciate that I have to go." I said and gave him a hug. After getting back to the car we drove to the airport. When I saw Clint I jumped out of the car and hugged my old friend tightly.
"Cap." He said.
"You know I wouldn't have called If I had any other choice." I replied smiling.
"Hey man, you're doing me a favor. Besides... I'm on your team." I looked over at Wanda.
"Thanks for having my back."I smiled at him.
"It was time to get off my ass."Wanda replied and I hugged her too.
"You too Piet, we'll someone with your speed."
"Well Stark wanted to lock my little sister in her room, I couldn't stand for that."He said smirking.
"By twelve minutes!" She groaned and I looked at clint.
"About our other recruit. He's ready to go. I have to put a little coffee in him, but... " Clint slid the Van door opened to reveal Scott Lang who jerked awake. "He should be good."
"What timezone is this?" He asked.
"Come on. Come on."Clint said and helping him out of the car.
Captain America." He said.
"Mr. Lang." I replied and he began to shake my hand.
"It's an honor. I'm shaking your hand too long. Wow. This is awesome, I had the biggest crush on you when I was a kid. Captain America."
"Thank you." I said he then looked at Wanda and Pietro.
"I know you two too, you're great."She smiled. "Jeez. Look, I wanted to say. I know you know a lot of super people, so... Thinks for thanking of me." Scott said knowing he messed up before looking over at Sam.
"What's up tic-tac?" Sam asked.
"Good to see you. Look. What happened last time was a..."
"It was a great audition, but it'll... it'll never happen again."
"Did he tell you what we're up against?" I asked Scott.
"Something about some... psycho assassins." He replied and I nodded.
"We're outside the law on this one. So, if you come with us, you're a wanted man."
"Yeah, well, what else is new?"
" We should get moving."Bucky said and I nodded.
"I got a chopper lined up." Clint said and I agreed before hearing the alarm.
"They're evacuating the airport." Bucky said and I groaned.
"Stark."I said.
"Stark?" Scott asked and I nodded again.
"Suit up." I said and we began to suit up to fight our friends. and as much as I didn't want to I knew I would have to no matter the consequences.
