Chapter 8 – Kick Start
The Winter Soldier watched the Winter Spider warily. He took in the blank look on his face and the vacant eyes. Unlike Peter's usually bambi eyes and excitement radiating from him 24/7.
"Peter.." The winter soldier started walking towards the teen. The winter spider walked forward too.
"It is an honor to meet you. Hydra speaks only good of you." The Winter Spider said again. He motioned to the glass box. "so are you going to let me out or what?"
The Winter soldier sighed sounding frustrated. "Peter, this isn't you." This was not what so called, Peter wanted to hear. He banged on the glass again.
"You have to let me out." He screeched starting to hyperventilate. He tangled his hands into his hair, pulling at strands. "Longing, rusted, furnace, daybreak, seventeen, benign, nine, homecoming, one, and freight car"
"Stop" The Winter soldier-bucky as he goes by now-demanded. He looked at the broken boy and walked away. "He is lost"
The Winter Spider suddenly felt a pull and he clutched his head in pain as a few memories sprouted back.
I'm pregnant
Are you ok?
My spider sense is acting up
Ned!
This is where you zip it the adult Is talking
If you're nothing without the suit then you shouldn't have it
Peter!
I love you dad
Peter gasped for breaths. It wasn't everything but it was little bit and a little went a long way. He grounded himself with thoughts of his dad but when he looked around he wasn't there. He recognized the box he was in as the same one as Loki.
"Dad" He whispered bringing his knees up to his chest. Everything hurt. Then he remembered who this had all been for and panic began to rise in his chest once more. "Wanda!"
Still nothing. This hurt not one would answer him he knew. He had his trigger words and he knew that hydra would come back for him. He had been obedient. More so than Bucky, they had told him that. Told him that if he were to every get lost they had people on the inside who would return him. At the time he had been relived but now he was paranoid.
"Someone" he said weakly silent tears streaming down his face. He went to sleep like that, that night. Small hope blooming in his chest because he remembered a few people. He remembered some things.

"I'm sorry Tony" Bucky said gripping his friends shoulder in reassurance. They were all currently curled up in the lounge room surrounding the billionaire.
"I- How could they do this" He said quietly. Pepper sat beside him rubbing his back in circles. He didn't feel better at all. They had taken his kid and turned him into a weapon. Peter had already lost so much, he was a kid for heavens sake.
"I don't know Tones, I don't know" Rhodey said, eyes shining with unshed tears. This wasn't how it was supposed to go. Tony had expected his kid to call every night and tell stories about college. He was supposed to be everything tony hadn't been and now that could all go away.
"I'm so sorry" Wanda said from the supporting arms of Vision. Everyone knew she held the most regret. She had talked about it a bit. How he had gone to protect her because anyone else would have done the same.
"It's not your fault, Love" Vision had said planting a kiss on the top of her head. Wanda shook her head in despair.
"Has anybody talked to Ned or MJ" Scott asked picking up his phone. Everyone shook their heads except Tony.
"I'll do it" He said. He thought he should be the one to talk to them. Perhaps it would being Peter back if they saw familiar faces. Hopefully it would.
They answered on the first ring.
"Ned?" Tony asked voice cracking as more tears fell.
"Mr. Stark? Did you find him? Is he ok?" Ned bombarded the man with questions. Tony took a deep breath. How was he supposed to tell the friend on his son, that Peter had been brain washed and probably turned into a super weapon.
"Ned, I think you and MJ should come down. Pepper can give the schools an excuse or something." Tony decided. It would make it easier if they could see their friend and not get news like this over the phone.
"Ok" Ned said quietly. "I'm going to call her now. Bye thank you"
Tony threw the phone at the wall in frustration. Not surprised when It just made a loud clank before falling to the floor. The newest stark phone was made up of small pieces of vibranium courtesy of the one and only Wakanda.
Even though everyone told him to think positive he couldn't help the negative thoughts that poured into his head. What if he never remembers anything? What if he is mad at me for not finding him? What if he doesn't want to be an Avenger anymore? What if he doesn't want to be spiderman anymore? The last one hit hard. He knew Peter loved being Spiderman, but now after this? Would he even be able to? Would he remember how?
"Guys!" Wanda ran in interrupting Tony's train of thought. Every glanced at her expecting a he remembered! Definitely not, "Peter's gone"
A/N: I'm probably going to be starting writing my Whumptober prompts. Any requests? Also I am going to finish it, it just might not be on time. Have a nice day! See you on Wednesday!
