"Did she tell you to stay out of it?" Sam asked. He, Steve, Percy were sitting at a counter somewhere in Vienna, watching the T.V. Sam and Percy chuckled at Steve's nod. "Might have a point."
"He'd do it for me." Steve insisted, fingers curling in and out of fists.
"1945, maybe. I just want to make sure we consider all our options." Sam explained at Steve's slightly hurt look.
"Because the people who shoot at you, usually wind up shooting at us." Percy added. He nodded at Sharon as she sat down next to Steve, staring straight ahead with a folder held tightly in her hand.
"Tips have been pouring in since the footage went public. Everybody thinks the Winter soldier goes to their gym. Most of it is noise, except for this. My boss expects a briefing and he pretty much knows, so... that's all the answer you're going to get." She said in a rush, her lips barely moving. She slid the folder to Steve, who held it gently in his hands. He flipped through, seeing pictures of Bucky frozen and reading the description.
"Thank you." He said, nodding at her.
"And you're going to have to hurry. We have orders to shoot on sight." Sharon said, standing up and walking out quickly, head down.
Steve stood in his Cap suit, shield hanging of his arm. He looked around before noticing something sticking out from under a box of crackers. Brushing away the stuff on top, he pulled item out, realizing it was a journal. He fingered through it, as if it was a rare artifact.
"Heads up Cap. German special forces approaching from the south." Steve put a hand to his ear, nodding.
"Understood." Turning he saw a man standing behind him in jeans, a red shirt, a worn leather jacket and gloves. A cap (AN: Can't be on team Cap without a cap!) was pulled low over his eyes and he was staring silently at Steve.
"Do you remember me?" He asked. Bucky responded quietly.
"You're Steve. I read about you at the museum." He said. Percy's slightly panicked voice came over the earpiece next.
"They've set a perimeter." He said, and muffled sounds of fighting came over.
"I know you're nervous. And you have plenty of reason to be. But you're lying." Steve said, listening to the com and noting everything that he heard.
"I wasn't in Vienna. I don't do that anymore." Bucky said, his voice cracking slightly.
"They're entering the building." Sam spoke over the comm set next.
"Well, the people who think you did are coming here now. And they're not planning on taking you alive." Steve said seriously.
"That smart. Good strategy." Bucky said, his voice rough, words calculated.
"They're on the roof. Sam's compromised." Percy shouted into his ear piece. "We gotta go!" Steve sighed as he watched Bucky take off his gloves, getting ready for a fight.
"This doesn't have to end in a fight Buck." Bucky sighed.
"It always end in a fight." He said, matter of fact. Sam and Percy's voice came over the comm together, panicked but controlled.
"Five seconds!" Steve stepped forward and his voice heightened slightly with emotion.
"You pulled me from the river. Why?" He asked.
"I don't know." Bucky answered.
"Three seconds!" Pounding of feet was heard coming up the stairs and outside the window.
"Yes you do." Steve said, his voice deadly calm.
"Breach, breach, breach!" Percy and Sam yelled in unison. Suddenly a lot of things happened at once. The door busted down and Bucky shoved the men away, knocking them unconcious. Steve crouched under his shield as the window shattered under the weight of soldiers, then jumped up, throwing his shield and knocking them out. He watched as Bucky continued fighting, yelling.
"Buck, stop! You're gonna kill someone." Bucky looked at him, throwing a bag out the window.
"I'm not gonna kill anyone." He spoke slowly, his voice gravelly. Bucky ran towards the door and jumped out the hole where the door was supposed to be.
"The suspect has escaped! Get him!" One of the soldiers shouted. An entire group of brown and green clad men moved forward, towards the super soldier, but Bucky kept fighting, his hair flying in his face. He threw one down the stairwell, Steve barely catching him. He looked up at Bucky with a 'Really?' face.
"Come on man." He said, shaking his head. Steve yanked the man back up onto the ledge ad watched Bucky jumped down, catching a railing. He flipped onto the floor and ran to a window. Using as much force as he could, he jumped at the window shattering the glass. He made it to the next rooftop and grabbed his bag, started running for his life, when a black blur tackled him. They rolled and the black clad figure stood up and bared his claws as Bucky watched with a slightly scared expression.
"Sam, Percy, south west rooftop." Steve said into the comm link. A few seconds later, Percy dropped out of the sky and landed next to him. The teen's green eye widened as he watched the dance-like before him. Sam came into view as the two backed up, readying themselves to run.
"Who the hell's the other guy?" Sam asked, bewildered. Steve rolled his shoulders and ran at the side of the balcony.
"I'm about to find out." He said, Percy running after him. They both rolled as they landed on the rooftop, and started running towards the pair fighting. Percy narrowed his eyes as he watched Bucky breaking a metal beam and the black human cat looking thing try to rip into Bucky's face. Helicopters flew overhead, shooting bullets at the black clad figure, that bounced off harmlessly. He turned to look and Bucky took this opportunity to roll out from under him. He ran to a spiraling road and jumped down the center. Steve and Percy followed, chasing after him. Black Panther jumped and ran after them, starting to catch up. Steve found a car and pulled the driver out and jumping in. He started the car as Percy ran along side, when Black Panther jumped on the roof of the car. Percy sighed and jumped onto the hood, ignoring Steve's shouts and started fighting. Sword against claws, the pair fought while the car was moving, Steve swerving, trying to shake the human cat.
"I can't shake this guy!" Steve yelled into the comm, driving after Bucky.
"Right behind you." Sam answered, flying into the tunnel and spotted them.
"Will someone get this guy off me?" Percy asked, still fighting. His celestial bronze sword clashed with the Vibranium of his opponents suit, creating a shower of sparks. Bucky was now on a motorcycle, glancing behind himself in a panic. Moments later, Steve and Percy stumbled out of the tunnel, just in front of a flipping car. The dust cleared as helicopter blades came into hearing and Falcon landed next to them. War Machine appeared out of the dust, his suit's arm held out, pointing at Black Panther, Bucky, Steve, Sam, and Percy.
"Stand down now." Rhodey ordered from inside the suit. Percy capped his pen and pocketed it while Steve put his shield on his back.
"Congratulations Captain. You're a criminal." Rhodey said, a hint of sadness barely heard in his voice. The black figure put his hands to his helmet and threw it aside, revealing T'Challa.
"Your highness." Rhodey nodded at him politely as he glared at the four behind him.
