Super Soldier Sister

Chapter 2

Are ya ready kids? :))

Bucky's POV

"Yes Sam."

"Your doing the staring thing again"

"Thank you Sam."

"Are you gonna do anything other than stare?"

"SAM"

I breathe deeply and close my eyes. It's fine. Everything is fine. 

 I hear Sam laugh quickly before going to open his mouth again. 

"Come on. Strange said he has something important to tell us."

I opened my eyes again to find an empty living room. 

Great. What's gone wrong now. 

The situation room was packed as usual and honestly, no one looked happy. The doctor looked straight up panicked. 

"What's going on?" I ask. Effectively breaking up the quiet chatter. 

"Yeah, Wong? Strange? Fill us in." Stark quickly takes charge. 

"Right, ok. Um, Wong?" Strange turns to him, running a hand quickly through his hair. 

The shorter man was holding a tarnished book gingerly. As though it might crumble in his hands. But by the look of it. It actually might. 

"As we know, two of the six infinity stones are currently housed on earth. The mind stone within vision and the time stone, kept safe by Doctor Strange."

As he spoke, Steven did a weird magic hand thing and his fancy necklace opened and the green stone was revealed. 

"I recently found out that there are specific creatures that hunt the time stones. They feed off their energy and believe that they should be worshipped."

"Shouldn't they then worship us?" Clint pipes up. "As the wielders of the stones?"

A murmur runs through the throng, discussing the idea until Strange speaks up. 

"I thought so too. But these things want to worship them in a very specific way, and believe that their planet is the only one pure enough to host the stones and the energy they create."

So that means they're coming here then. 

How many of them? Are they peaceful? Will they accept negotiation? When are they coming? What aliens are they? What are their skill sets?

So many questions cycle through my head I get a migraine. 

I look up to catch Steve staring at me worriedly.

Jesus. He worries more than me. And I wasn't the one jumping on grenades. 

'you ok Buck?' he mouths to me across the room and I grin quickly to reassure him. 

Worry wart. 

I clear my throat quickly.  

"So they want to steal the stones?" I clarify. 

Wong nods and I nod with him. 

"How fast are the approaching and how many?" I hear Steve ask. And for once I'm appreciative of how he manages to read my mind sometimes. 

"They should be here in the next week, and we don't know for sure how many but we can expect an entire battalion. We attracted quite some attention when we fought the chitauri."

"And how many is a battalion?"

"Again we don't know for sure but roughly 2 thousand."

Oh my god. We're screwed. 

Just as the room erupts into loud discussion the FRIDAY's voice cuts through the room. 

"His Highness is calling from Wakanda Mr. Stark"

"Let him through"

"Your Highness! Good to hear from you" Stark greets quickly. 

 "Good to talk Stark", T'challa answers quickly. "But we've heard of the amuriclica attack coming quickly and are immediately offering assistance."

"How do you know about the aliens" I ask quickly. 

"Good to hear from you Sargent Barnes. And that information can be disscussed when you get here."

"Get there? What do you mean?" Stark cuts through quickly. 

"We suggest, that putting all of our forces, guarding the infinity stones, in Wakanda. That means the threat to civilians will be a lot less."

"You have civilians too T'challa." I remind him, as if he would ever forget. "And the damage to your city will be extensive."

"We are prepared for that outcome. And our civilians are a lot more easily evacuated than thousands of cities around the world no?" 

"Yeah I guess."

"If that is agreed upon I must also mention, Shuri has calculated the size of their attack. And even with all of our forces combined, we do not have enough man power to win if things deteriorate."

"How many people do we need your highness?" Steve asks. 

"Twenty or so people. Or another super soldier. But I don't think we have those just lying around."

Rebecca. 

Steve turns to me immediately and I shake my head. We're not bringing her into this. Not now. 

"Ok your highness, we'll think about the people and see you soon."

"Arrive quickly my friends."

The silence in the room is deafening. 

"Alright guys. I guess we're moving to Wakanda until this is over." Tony breaks it, before heading out the door with the others following. 

Steve stays. 

"We can't Steve." I say immediately. "We can't bring her into this."

"It doesn't look like we have that much of a choice Buck." He responds quietly. 

Deep down. I know he doesn't want this either. For exactly the same reason. 

"What if she gets hurt" I breathe. 

There's so much that can go wrong. 

"I know. And you know I'd hate for her to get hurt but we don't have a choice."

He puts a hand on my shoulder. 

"And she just as strong as you and I."

I nod. Memories I try to repress surfacing in my mind. 

Her strapped to a table. A gun to her head. The hopelessness. The loss. 

I blink and take a deep breath. Resurfacing from my mind. 

"I guess I'll go get Rebecca."

aye aye captain! :))

Another chapter finished! This was kinda rough ngl. Getting in Bucky's mindset and how he think's was a STRUGGLE. But we got here. 

Also the name of the aliens is pronounced a-mur-ick-lick-ah. 

Fun times, fun times. 

Enjoy the rollercoaster!
