It wasn't long before all hell broke loose... Melly's face went white.
"Oh god no!... Someone activated the code within Bucky." She said as we ran to where Bucky was held up as we met Steve.
"What happened?"
"Bucky is under a old Hypnosis code it won't effect him in English but it will in Russian." Melly spoke.
"Can you snap him out of it?" I asked Melly.
"No! He has to finish the mission in order to snap out of it." Melly spoke. Steve went after Bucky first as Melly stayed behind with me, I can tell she figured something out as she then looked at me and spoke "Someone must had found the little red book."
"What little red book?" I asked, "Like a little black book idea?"
"Yes and no. It was used to teach the high ranking officers or his handlers to make Bucky respond to their command, there were notes in it since they first worked on him." Melly spoke as I had a decision to make should I risk it going after him for her sake or keep my sister safe? Or a third option, she and I work together to stop him...
"Sis this might be your only chance to tell him." I said as we chased Bucky to the break room, "I'll go first."
I fought him the best I could as he threw me into the tables as Melly went after him next.
"Bucky, listen to me." She said as she performed moves that Natasha could do... He slammed her to the table as he tried to strangle her with his metal arm as she then said "At least recognize me!" He hesitated, as he said something in Russian to her... I wish I knew what it was but then I saw her say it.
"Bucky I'm pregnant." She said, he didn't snap out of it he just let her go and ran out of there as I rushed to her side.
"You ok?"
"Well yeah."
Now Bucky, Steve and Sam were M.I.A. No one found them in the wreckage of the helicopter at the bottom of the river. Something told me Steve figured out a loophole at last second.
"Excuse me Miss Johansen you have a collect call from your brother in law." said my boss; Everett Ross
as he pointed to a desk. Instead of looking confused I took the call.
"Melissa, are you and your sister ok?" Said Steve.
"Yes we're fine Grant." I said as I called him by his middle name.
"That's good," He said relieved.
"Need a hand or two?"
"A few favors."
"That would be nice thank you."
"Besides a change of clothes what else?"
"Well let's just say he really need to apologize to her. He's feeling really guilty for hurting her."
"She signed it but only on the conditions that she works with me and not with Tony."
"Ok well you two fill us in when you got some clothes to change into."
We found Steve and the guys in a blue volkswagen beetle as the guys came out to greet us.
"Melly are you ok I'm soo sorry I acted like a total jerk." Bucky began as he hugged her.
"That's a first to my ears." Joked Steve.
"Steve, I already called you Punk 70+ years ago." Bucky joked back, "Don't tempt me to call you that again."
Steve, Melly and I laughed, "Bucky, you may be a jerk but you're my Vintage Jerk remember?"
"Alright so that means you forgive me?"
She gave him an annoyed look, "Yes, Jerkface I forgive you."
"I thought I called you Dork?" I joked to Melly.
"Yeah," Melly recalled, "And I called you Punky Brewster."
We all chuckled for a bit.
"Whoever is framing you left the book in the room..." Melly spoke as she took it out from under her clothes, "While you guy hide I'll find a way to reverse things for you."
"Melly... I don't deserve you." Bucky spoke to her.
"Bucky you're stuck with me. Remember? I'm pregnant... not like we pretended in the months past, but for real this time."
"I love you Melly, next time I go through that again please don't get in the way. I don't want to lose you both." He said as he touched her belly with his right hand.
"Don't worry about it so much Bucky, Melissa and I are a team now. I'll be safe with her."
"From what I found out the person framing Bucky is Colonel Zemo... He got separated from his family in Sokovia... The Ultron took over and well you can pretty much guess from there." I explained as I showed Steve the evidence I collected from work. "We got word that the real physiatrist had been dead for at least a few days and there was a face mask that was made to Bucky's face... Sis and I are on our way there."
"What kind of excuse you're going to make for being late."
"Steve, I'll just use my pregnancy as an excuse to cover for this." Melly said overhearing us.
"Thanks Sis." I spoke.
"Just let us figure out the loopholes and hope for the best." Melly spoke, "Here I thought you'd might like this for your mission." She said giving him some clothes.
"You were always too kind to me."
"That's because no one else showed you kindness," She spoke as he gave her one last kiss.
"I wish there was more I can do, but..." I said as I opened the trunk of my rental S.U.V. as he saw both his and Falcon's gear, "This is all I can do."
"You've done enough for us already Melissa."
I looked at Steve and sighed, "I hope this helps."
Steve wrapped his arms around me as he gave me a kiss then spoke, "We should get going."
"Right." I replied as I gave him my card with all contact information, "Keep in touch with me regardless of what happens okay?"
He smiled, "I'll do my best, Melissa."
"That's all I ask Steve. Good bye Steve."
"Goodbye Peggy."
I got into the car with Melly, "I think you should hide the book Melly."
"I will but you should hide that look of love on your face." She teased me.
"Sis just keep you're mouth shut once we're there okay."
"Alright you're the boss."
"Smartass."
"I missed yah sis."
"I missed you too."
