Chapter Two: Torture

"I forgive you. You weren't born evil, your life made you that way. You lost everyone that you cared about way too young and you didn't have a family to look after you."

-Elena Gilbert

Peter Parker couldn't believe where he was standing in. Oscorp Corporation. The company that his former friend Harry Oscorp was going to inherent in the future. The company that his father had worked for. The place where he was going to find Dr. Connors, his father's old friend. And more importantly Gwen Stacy, the girl that he had a crush on was giving the tour.

But Peter couldn't let himself get distracted, especially not now.

He had noticed that one of the doctors had carried a folder filled with documents and marked with a stamp that his father had also had in one of his old documents and he wondered if he could find any more information of his parents.

Peter heard Gwen's voice drowned off as he moved away from the group and followed the doctor inside and soon found himself inside a lab. The lab was filled with many locked door and chemicals.

Peter stopped in front of a door that said CAUTION: genetically modified spiders.

"Cool." Peter whispered as he looked over his shoulder to make sure that no one was following him and went inside. His brown eyes widened when he saw the dozens of little spiders in a small glass cage.

Despite himself he walked toward the glass cage to have a look at them an accidently ended up pressing the button that released them. "No, no." he hissed as the dozens of little spiders began crawling away. Some on them looking at him as if they wanted to bite him.

Panicking, Peter got out of the lab and closed the door harshly as he ran to where Gwen was probably done with the tour.

When Gwen saw Peter she narrowed her eyes and said without a hint of amusement. "Badge?"

Peter sheepishly pulled off the fake badge from his chest and handed it to her. "Sorry." He felt something bite him in the neck. "Ow!"

Gwen looked back at him puzzled, but Peter waved her away.

When Gwen's back was turn he reached for his back, and in his hand was one of the genetically enhanced spiders. The one that had just bit him.

"I'd like to propose a toast." Damon raised his glass as Elena quickly handed shot glasses to their circle of friends with included Bonnie, Caroline, Jeremy, Matt, and Stefan. "To my best girl here who finally got rid of the manipulative, psychotic bitch and the plague of our existence Katherine Pierce."

"I'll drink to that." Jeremy said cheerfully. "I would have preferred it if she were dead. She did kill me."

"Give her a break." Bonnie said grinning, "Humanity is a worst punishment for Katherine."

"I know." Caroline laughed. "Can you actually imagine Katherine working or dealing with normal human problems?"

"I still can't believe that you didn't kill her." Stefan mused. "Anyone would have."

Elena shrugged. "What was the point? She got what she deserved especially after all that she has done to ruin my life." She smirked. "Believe me, killing her wouldn't have been enough, having to live as a human and learning how to survive without anyone at her side is the worst punishment for her."

"We should add neon lights, and maybe room for a helicopter," Tony Stark said to his girlfriend Pepper Potts as they looked over the building plans for the new Stark Tower that had to be rebuilt thanks to Loki.

"A helicopter? Neon lights?" Pepper teased as she looked over his shoulder. "Tony, it's Stark Tower-our home not a Vegas hotel."

"Might as well be," Tony grumbled. "Fury is trying to turn Stark Tower into Avengers headquarter. That man is a kill joy."

"Where are the others?" Pepper murmured as she brushed her hands against Tony's face. Her anger against Tony for almost getting himself killed had been melting away slowly.

"Natasha and Barton are back at the helicarrier, Thor and Loki are in Ass whatever, Bruce is falling in love with Jarvis down below, and I'm," he wrapped his hands around Pepper's waist. "With my girl."

Pepper smiled. "What about Steve?"

"He's probably learning how to use a microwave."

"Tony, be nice." Pepper said. "I feel sorry for the guy, just help him fit in."

"It's not like it's easy, he's an old fashion fellow. He still turns away when he sees a couple kissing. Maybe I should take him to Vegas, might help him loosen up."

"Who the hell is Bucky?" Bucky asked with sincere confusion as he stared at Katherine. It felt weird having another person here. He saw people obviously, but he had never meet another person who was in his situation.

"You are." Katherine said as if it should have been obvious. "You're James Buchanan Barnes, we've meet in the forties with your friend Steve, you asked me to call you Bucky remember?"

Bucky shook his head. "I don't know anyone named Steve or Bucky."

"Then what's your name?" Katherine asked impatiently. It had to be Bucky, it just had to be. The question was how was he still alive? He should be over 90 by now or maybe dead but he looked like he hadn't aged a day.

Bucky paused for a bit. "The Winter Soldier."

Wait, what? Before she could even ask if that was a code name or something the doors opened and Katherine felt himself being pulled up and blind folded. "Hey." She shrieked.

"Shut up." A male voice said gruffly as he led her away.

Katherine couldn't see where she was going or why they were taking so many twists and turns, Katherine had a feeling that they were doing this to confuse her.

Katherine hated to admit it, but she was scared, terrified even. Who were these people? And what did they want with her? They weren't vampires, but they weren't witches either.

She felt herself being led towards a bed, and iron grips being fastened on her arms. She heard voices around her.

". . . Is she healthy?"

"Yes. . . "

". . . Good condition?"

"Young, probably a runway."

"Who the hell are you?" Katherine manage to groan as they finally removed the blindfold.

Katherine noticed that she was in a room with dozens of machines, she herself was connected too at least two machines and there was a needle with a strange blue liquid preparing to enter her skin. Panic rose in Katherine's chest as she tried to pull away. "Who are you? What do you want with me?"

"Calm down," a female scientist said with fake sweetness. "You're doing a great service for HYDRA."

"HYDRA?" Katherine screeched. "What is that supposed to mean you little bitch?"

"She's becoming agitated." One of the other men said. "Start her up."

"Start what up?"

They ignored her as the woman placed someone plastic in Katherine's mouth. "Is for you not to bite your tongue out."

Her brown eyes widened as she tried to move away, but the restraints held her back.

"Starting our second super soldier commencing in one. . .two . . . three."

Katherine felt a jolt, followed by an intense pain. It was the worst pain that she had felt in her entire life, it was like being electrocuted a hundred time over. She felt her eyes watering under her eyelids. She wanted to scream, but the thing in her mouth prevented her from doing it, so instead she just trembled and waited for the pain to be over.
