A Past With A Brighter Future

(Chapter 1)

Your name is Y/N Barnes. You are 106 years of age. Twin sister to James (Bucky) Barnes and older sister of Rebecca Barnes. After your parents died, you were recruited by the KGB and sent to train in the Red Room. Separated from your brother and sister. At the Red Room, you endured both an education and indoctrination into the world of spy-craft. Excelling in this environment and soon became regarded as a master spy and one of the world's greatest assassins. There you were injected with a serum. Said serum made you look 20. You couldn't die of old age that was for sure. You had other powers too. Time manipulation and power over the 4 elements. Water, Fire, Air, and Land. They came in handy at times. Others, they were quite a hassle.

Tony walked into the common room where the other Avengers sat talking to one another. "I have an important announcement." He called as to get everyone's attention. They all stopped talking and made eye contact. "We have a new recruit."

Bruce furrows her brows. "Why would we need a new member?"

"We need help. If we're gonna beat hydra and take down the Winter Soldier we need new eyes. Somebody who can help." He directs to the other members. "Jarvis. Let Ms. Barnes in please." He calls.

"Barnes?" Steve asks. No it couldn't be. Barnes was a common enough last name. There was no way it was the same.

You walk through the doors to be met with Tony Stark as well as 5 others you'd never met before.

Walking closer. You spot someone vaguely similar.

"Y/n?" He asked turning in his seat?" Your eyes widen. It was him. But how? He looked to be about mid twenties.

"Steve?" You asked. A smile spread on your face.

"Oh my gosh. What are you doing here? How are you alive?" He asks immediately as you give him a hug.

The others watch a mix of shock and confusion. They'd never seen Steve act like this before.

"I could ask you the same question." You laugh. "What are you 105?"

"I can't believe your alive. I mean how?" He says still in chock.

"We'll talk I promise but I still haven't met everybody and I certainly wasn't expecting this." You laugh awkwardly.

"How do you two know each other?" A man with light brown asks confused.

"She's Bucky's sister. We met a while ago." He explains.

"After my parents death I was separated from Bucky and Rebecca. I was sent to the Red Room Academy.

"So Barnes, what powers do you have?" A man with long blond hair said.

"I have super speed, time manipulation, and power over the four elements." She shrugs.

"она тоже хорошенькая" a red head with sparkly green eyes mutters under her breath (She's pretty too) just loud enough for you to hear.

"говорит вам" (Says you) you wink at her. She turns her head, looking down hiding the light tint of pink on her cheeks. Taken back that she was caught. Surprised that she could speak Russian.

Others soon started to disperse after the initial meeting. The red head she learned, was named Natasha Romanoff.

"You said you were trained at the Red Room Academy?" She asked. You nod yes. "I was trained in the red room."

"I'm guessing that's where you learned how to speak Russian?" You assume.

She nods. "Let's see what you got." She walks over to the fighting ring.

Stepping into the ring you stare at her for a moment. Just taking the woman in. She pins you to the ground. You can feel her breath on your neck. You get out from under her hold and attack her from behind. Now pinning her down, you smirk at her.

"Not bad Barnes." She offers. You stand up and take her arm as a piece offering. She takes it and you help her stand up.

A man with brown curly hair comes in. "Oh um hello." You greet.

"Hello. My names Bruce. Banner. Bruce Banner. You guys are missing the party." He says.

"Party?" You ask.

"Well it's more of a gathering. We're all hanging out on the terrace. There's beer and games and stuff if you're interested in playing." He justifies.

You shrug. "Yeah okay. I'll be there."

You and Natasha walk in to see everyone eating and talking. Sitting on sofas and arm chairs.

"Please, lift my hammer. Be my guest." The long blond says.

You sit down on an empty love seat and Natasha sits next to you. Everyone looks around.

The man, you learn is named Clint stands up first. Walking up to the hammer that sat in the middle of the table.

He pulls and pulls but can't seem to laugh. Next Tony tries. He struggles. Even grabbing his Iron hand to help but it's no use.

You laugh lightheartedly. Next Bruce goes. Yelling as he fails. You look down in embarrassment. Still laughing at the situation.

Next Steve tries. He wasn't going to get it. Sure he might be strong but there was no way. Still, the hammer didn't move.

"May I give it a try?" You ask the long haired blond.

He nods. "Be my guest."

You walk up to the hammer and pick it up with one hand easily. Flipping it in your hand. Everyone looks around in amazement.

"How did you do that?" The blond asks surprised.

"Super strength I guess." You shrug.

Steve laughs "Of course it would be you."

"What's that supposed to mean?" You look at him feigning offended.

"That was impressive." Natasha says taking a sip of her beer.
