Complicated Love (Bucky Barnes x Reader)

Chapter 10: Hydra Base

"Let's move," I whisper yell to the soldiers I'm with. The soldiers include Bucky, Dum Dum Dugan, Gabe Jones, Jim Morita, James Montgomery, Sam Sawyer, Pinky Pinkerton, and Junior Juniper. We are in the woods behind the Hydra base in Austria, about to move in.

My job was to try and find the information room or any information I can that can locate any more bases or anything about the strange radiation that is exerted from all these bases. Everyone else in my group is to take down as many people as they can. Once everyone is out, we will blow the place up, hopefully destroying everything inside.

Just as we predicted, there were no guards at entrance 23 at 11 at night when they are switching out. It's pitch dark out, giving us an advantage to sneak our way in. There are many other troops ready to come behind us and all around the base once we make a scene inside. We are basically the suicide group, unfortunately.

We made our way towards the base, and Morita broke the code so we could enter. I held my rifle up high, making sure the path was cleared so we could go in. I see a guard 20 yards away, so I shoot him before he could see us, hitting him straight through the head, his now corpse falling to the ground.

I motion everyone to go in their direction and to start creating chaos. I go towards where we believe is the files/information room, and Bucky follows, which wasn't the plan. I quickly pulled him to a corner where no one could shoot us without us seeing. "What are you doing?" I whisper to him, and anyone could hear the anger in my voice.

"You're crazy if you ever think I'm going to leave you wandering around this hellhole by yourself," he says, and then with his rifle shoots the hydra agent approaching us. I sigh, knowing I wasn't going to be able to convince him otherwise. We do not have time to argue right now.

"Fine. Cover my six," I say. I didn't wait for an answer and made my way to the file room, my rifle held high, scanning the hallways as we walk. We eventually find the information room, but it was locked with the highest security padlock I have ever seen. "This might take a while."

"We've got time, I'll cover you," Bucky says, giving me a reassuring nod. I bend down to get a better view, and start doing various methods that might work to pick the lock. Slowly, but surely, I ended up getting the padlock open, kicking open to finding hundreds of filing cabinets.

"I'll cover the door, you see if there is anything important," he says, and I nod. An alarm starts blaring, making our plan work so far, giving me a little hope. I start going through every cabinet, trying to find any useful file with good information on any other bases. 

I find a filing cabinet labeled "weapons", and I immediately start searching through it. I come to learn that they are using something called the Tesseract to power their weapons, which can disintegrate anything with the slightest touch. This is probably what is causing so much radiation from these bases. Bingo!

"Uh, y/n, we have some company," Bucky says, and I can hear the worry in his voice. I turn around to find him starting to shoot at 6 Hydra guards. One of the guards shot their glowing gun at Bucky's weapon, making it evaporate. Wow, the file was not kidding. I move forward, catching one of the guards off, taking my gun and shooting him in the ribs.

I throw Bucky my rifle as I roll behind a filing cabinet. I grab my hand gun that is in my thigh holster and start to shoot at the other guards. Bucky took down one more guard, making four left. The guards start to spread out throughout the room, causing Bucky to back in towards me, hiding behind a filing cabinet. 

I made my way around the perimeter, kicking a filing cabinet into one of the guards. He stumbles, but points his gun at me. Before he could shoot me, I grab the base of his gun, pointing it to one of the other guards, making him evaporate. Three more. I then push the gun into his face, and I could hear the crack of his nose and he falls to the ground. I shoot him once he was on the ground. Two more.

I take the gun out of his grip, taking a closer look at it. I notice a glowing blue gem at the core of the gun. This must be the Tesseract. I drop the gun when I hear Bucky yell. I turn around seeing one of the guards inserting a syringe into Bucky's neck, causing him to be knocked out. "No!" I yell.

I made my way towards the other two guards, and I used the cabinet next to it to propel myself over one of the guard's shoulder, linking my legs around his neck, pushing him towards the ground to knock him out. I whip around to aim my gun at the other guard, but he quickly shot it with his glowing blue gun, making it evaporate. 

I roundhouse kick his gun across the room, as he pulls out a pocket knife, as I do the same from my boot. He quickly comes at me, trying to stab me in the gut, as I dodge. I grab his wrist, kicking him in the place where the sun does not shine so bright. He falls to the ground and takes me down with him. I straddle him and raise my knife up when he takes his knife and stabs me in the thigh. I shout in pain as I drive my knife into his neck, causing him to go limp.

I quickly limp over to Bucky's body, kneeling by his side. "Wake up!" I yell, tapping his face and shaking his body to try to get him conscious once again. I cannot lose him. 

My mind was completely on Bucky until I feel a towel over my mouth, making me breathe in the toxic gas. I try to hold my breath and fight my way out, but I could quickly feel my body go numb. My eyes water as the last thing I see is Bucky's body before everything went black.

...

"She's going to bleed out."

"We have to patch it up somehow."

"Use this to slow down the bleeding."

"Anyone have some rum to slow down her blood flow?"

"Dum Dum, you just want to rum for yourself."

"Partly, but we have to do something."

I hear the faint argument of the familiar soldiers and I hope we were in the truck on our way back to base. I slowly open my eyes, trying to get used to the light while all of my senses start to come back to me.

I adjust to the wall, or should I say pole, trying to get more comfortable which ultimately fails. My vision becomes clear and I find myself in a cell with Dum Dum, Montgomery and a bunch of other men surrounding me. Montgomery was wrapping a cloth around my leg, blood already seeping through it. "What happened?" I ask.

"Well, we were outnumbered just by the power of their weapons alone," Dum Dum said.

"They're is around 400 of us in the cells," one of the soldiers says.

Montgomery tightens the cloth around my thigh, making me hiss in pain. "This should help prevent your death," he says, trying to lighten the mood, which fails.

"Somehow death will find a way to creep up on you," I say, making everyone chuckle lightly. I look around, trying to find Bucky, wanting to make sure he's okay. "Where's Sergeant Barnes?"

"They took him to a whole other part of the base," a soldier says, who has basically given up on everything as he mopes in the corner. 

They have Bucky.
