✔️The Summer Soldier ||Bucky Barnes||

53

The next couple of weeks were slowly getting easier for Harley. She was finally able to accept what had happened, even though she wanted to go and kill someone just to let her anger out.

"Mama can we go see uncle Teve and auntie Nat now? Ooo! And Thor!" Summer said, going into the kitchen by Her mother.

Harley smiled at the little girl and knelt down to her level. "If you go clean up your toys from the living room and then put them away, we can go." She said with a smile.

Summer didn't hesitate to run away to the living room, picking up as many toys as she could and ran up the stairs.

"Hey, be careful on the stairs hun." Harley reminded the little girl, knowing she was a little clumsy.

While she cleaned up the kitchen, Harley heard something fall upstairs. "Summ? You ok up there?" She asked, making her way to the bottom of the stairs.

There wasn't a response.

"Summ?" She asked again, now quickly walking up the stairs.

When she got to her daughters bedroom, the door was shut which was weird since summer wasn't done cleaning up yet and the door was never shut. "Summer no more games.." she said, opening the door to an empty room.

Harley's breathing picked up, looking around the room for her daughter. When she was no where to be found, Harley could hear the sound of tires screeching and a car speeding away.

She hesitated to turn around and face the bedroom window, seeing that it was wide open. "N-no.. NO!" She yelled, slamming the window shut and locking it.

Harley however didn't hesitate to grab her car keys and run out of the house and get into the car. She didn't know whether to find the car that could've had her kid, or to go to the compound for help.

But she realized she didn't have her phone with her so she just kept making her way to the compound, her tears almost making her crash the car a few times.

When she got to the compound, she completely ignored the doorbell and Jarvis' voice speaking to her and ran inside.

"Whoa there lady spade, what's wrong?" Thor asked once the hysterical girl reached the living room.

Steve and nat looked at eachother, then to Harley and noticed how she was shaking. "Harley what happened?" Nat asked, slowly approaching the girl knowing that Harley could possibly kill her.

"SOMEONE BROKE INTO MY FUCKING HOUSE! A-AND THEY TOOK SUMMER." Harley yelled, her emotional pain was very noticeable in her voice.

The remaining avengers in the room all stiffened up and got serious. "How did that happen?!" Bruce asked, the group of them going towards the meeting room.

"You think I know?! I told her to clean up her toys then I thought she dropped something upstairs. Sh-she didn't answer me when I called her down and I heard tired screeching. Her window was wide open when I got in.." Harley said, her whole body was shaking and she could barely see through her tears.

Steve went over to the meeting room display table and started to type in a code.

"Steve what the hell are you doing? Now isn't the time to do.. whatever the hell that is!" Harley said, confused by whatever the man was doing.

But he continued, once the code was finished, a map popped up with a red point on it. "Those earrings that nat and I bought her when she got her beard done have a little tracker in them. IF she's wearing them, this is where she could be." He said, keeping the map up for everyone to see.

Harley nodded. "She- she was wearing them.. she won't take them off. And when we're you going to tell me that?!"

"Harley that doesn't matter. Are you coming with us or not?" Steve said, putting his shield on his back and beginning to walk away.

Steve was always very serious when it came to Summers safety. He had always feared, along with Harley and Bucky, that someone would try to do something like this to summer because of the avengers actions.

Summer was a weak spot for everyone. Whenever the avengers were in danger, the very few times recently, summer was somehow brought up. They would threaten to take her or hurt her.

But, it usually ended in Steve, Bucky, or Nat killing the person threatening them.

"Hell fucking yeah I am." Harley said, wiping her tears and pressing the button on her bracelet, making her suit appear over her clothes.

"This is it." Nat said, looking at the maps location, then to where they were. "I don't even see anything.."

Harley looked around, they were somewhere in the middle of the woods. "Summer?!" She called out? Waiting for some sort of response.

She sighed when nothing happened, then took out something newer that Tony had installed in her suit a while back. "Please work." She said to herself.

Harley pressed another button that was on the side of her suit near her waist, the spot expanding and a pair of thermal glasses popped out. "Sweet." She said, putting the glasses over her face.

"Where the hell did you get those?"rhodey asked, not understanding how she got glasses out of a completely flat piece of fabric.

Harley shook her head. "Ask Tony whenever he decides to come back.."

Ignoring the rest of whatever Rhodey had to say, Harley activated the thermal vision and scanned the area.

"There. There's a few heat signatures." She said, sneaking towards the signatures while the others followed behind. "On my count.."

"Nope." Steve said, too angered to even think about a plan and just running in.

Steve there his shield at the few men near the door, knocking them all down to the ground. "Follow behind me." He said, going into the building.

Nat looked at Steve, then to Harley. Both of them seemed way too angry about this. Someone is going to get killed.

"Coming up on our right we've got two more of them." Harley said, seeing the heat signatures in her glasses. "Hey Bruce, how about you uh.. get angry and help us out a little bit?"

Bruce nodded and just let the hulk take over him, charging at the incoming men while everyone else split up to find Summer.

A terrified, high-pitched scream sounded throughout the building. It sounded similar to Summer, except this one was more out of fear.

"What was that?" Rhodey asked.

"Summer." Steve and Harley each said at the same time.
