Second Sphere

Im sorry

I groan getting up again. I still hear the sound of fighting so I haven't missed the entire battle. Looking out I see everyone fighting. T'Challa has Bucky pinned and raises his claws to rip into Buckys throat but I kick him out of the way.

"No!" I yell at him.

"This is not the time!" T'Challa yells at me.

I spread my wings planting myself firmly between him and Bucky. "I won't let you kill him."

By the time T'Challa looks away, Bucky has already left from behind me.

"Now look, he's gotten away." T'Challa spits at me.

"We do it the right way or not at all." I glare right back.

We both turn when ant man becomes gigantic. Before I can move Clint shoots an arrow that tangles me in a net which shocks me as well.

I just can't catch a break today when it comes to the electricity. It takes me a minute to untangle myself from the net. I manage to catch Parker before he hits the pavement after taking down antman.

Looking around all of us are in tatters, and Steve and Bucky manage to fly away. Rhodey and Stark go after the jet with Sam in pursuit. I take off after in time to see Rhodey crashing to the ground. Even flying at top speed I'm not fast enough to get to him before he crashes into the ground. I stop in the air, hovering where I was.

We are all dead quiet. After the fallout we all recover at the avengers facility. Rhodey gets the best care we can offer and the next time I see Stark he is on his way out to a chopper.

"Tony," he doesn't stop walking when I call his name, I try again louder. "Tony, let me go with you I can help."

He stops in his tracks, "Then you're coming with me you can tell me on the chopper."

I run to catch up and board the plane, everything is tense. After a bit of silence once we are in the air he turns to me, "You know they will come for you too. T'Challa told Ross you stopped him."

I sigh, "I only stopped him from killing Bucky. Our job was to bring him in not kill him."

"Yeah well now they aren't being brought in are they. Better dead than out there." Tony spits at me.

"Look. I know this is hard on you, it's hard on all of us. You promised me when I signed this accord we would protect Bucky. I signed to protect Bucky. I was only doing that, nothing else. I'm coming with you right now to still try and bring him in." I sigh again and put a hand on Tony's shoulder, "I know he's your best friend. But he's alive. I'm trying to keep mine alive right now."

Tony doesn't say anything else for a while but over the course of the ride. Friday reveals the real identity of the doctor, Zemo. With a vendetta against Bucky. The evidence in the hotel room with the real dead doctor, proves Bucky didn't do it.

I give tony a grim smile. "I told you. I told you he never did it. Let's bring him home now please."

Tony nods. And we both prepare for what lies ahead of us. It's not until we are flying over a large ocean prison that I realize we aren't on our way to help Bucky. "Tony, what is this."

He looks at me sorrowfully, "feathers, I'm sorry."
