Song: Instupendo - Six Forty Seven.
'Steve... are you sure we can let her sleep alone?' Bucky asks as he gets under the covers. He hears Steve sigh.
'I mean, we stayed at medbay all night and even then she told us she can sleep alone... She can come here if she wants but I won't force her, God knows what they forced her into doing...' Steve explains as he pulls Bucky to lay him on his chest.
'She killed people... can't imagine what that must do to her... I mean we are kind of used to it... but these were the first guys she killed, you know what that's like...' Bucky looks up at Steve who gently runs his fingers through Bucky's dark hair.
'She did what she had to do... we should definitely keep an eye on her, but I don't think crowding her will do any good, neither will coddling her to death...' he lets out another sigh.
'I know...'

Your sweating body twitches violently under the sheets, you want to feel safe by wrapping your blanket around you but at the same time it's incredibly constricting and it makes you suffocate.
You're dreaming, you're experiencing the year all over again but more intense, less accurate with every dream you have, but it's more gruesome. Your brain is making you relive every second a thousand times worse.
A scream tears from your throat once you feel two sets of hands on your arms. 'GET AWAY!' You yell as you kick your legs and yank your arms.
'LET GO OF ME!'
You hear a few groans as your feet seem to get a few good hits in. One set of hands starts shaking your shoulders. 'Wake up... Y/n wake up!'
You open your eyes, they dart across the room trying to make sense of the situation. The light next to your bed is now on and two figures sit beside you.
Bucky's hand comes up to your cheek. 'Baby.. baby it's just us...it's just us...'
Steve's heart sinks when he sees your eyes fill themselves with fresh tears. He hates seeing you cry, he always does.
Bucky pulls you into his arms while yours snake around his shoulders. 'It's okay baby... you're safe...'
You don't know what to say, you have so many things you want to say at once but you can't decide. You say nothing, quietly sobbing against your dad.
'Do you want us to stay with you?' Steve asks worried.
'Yeah, I would like that...' you hiccup.
'Y/n.. breath for me... in.... Out.... In.... Out...' Bucky instructs you as Steve pulls the sheets from your bed and hurries to get the one from his shared bed with Bucky.
Steve crawls under them followed by you and his husband. 'We will be right here...' Steve gently speaks.
'Just like old times...' Bucky gives you a small smile, hoping to bring a little happiness to you.
It works, you give him a tight lipped smile in return. 'I love you both...' you whisper.
A few hiccups shake your body until you're finally able to lay down. Steve and Bucky both watch you close your eyes, they wait for your breath to even out to know that you're finally asleep.
'We love you too...' Steve kisses your head follows by Bucky doing the exact same.
'Don't leave please...' you mutter.

[5 years later]
The TV plays in the background, a group of men play poker on one table while money is being counted on the other.
'Aren't you worried?' One man speaks up to another, pointing lazily at the TV.
'Nah man, don't be so paranoid... we're hidden too well...she won't find us... she is just another girl looking for revenge...'
'You're right-'
'Oh I wouldn't say that...' you press the barrel of the gun against the man's head.
The man raises his hands as shield agents slowly fill up the room. They contain the other men and scout out the remainder of the room.
'I'll look for the girls... take the men into custody... don't play nice...' you order as you lower your gun and March over to the hallway.
You put the gun up as you set one foot in front of the other, making your way own the hallway you hear voices getting louder and louder. You see the empty rooms on either side, they must've put them all together to avoid being found easily.
You walk towards the cell at the very end. It's too dark to see anything past a couple feet, maybe they're hiding? You are holding up a gun, wouldn't be surprising if they pushed to the back of the cell to avoid getting seen.
You close your eyes for a moment, you use your enhanced hearing to try and locate some guards. You always found that male footsteps are much heavier, and therefore easier to locate.
You pick up none, so you slowly put the gun down. You pull the strap and let it hang on your hip before you raise your hands.
'I'm not here to hurt you...I'm simply here to open the door and help you back outside... okay?'
You move to the cell door and with one swift pull, it pops out of its hinges. You put it down against the wall and step back again.
Slowly figures emerge from the dark. Scared girls all clinging together, trembling and tears streaming down their face.
'You're her.. aren't you?' One speaks up.
'I'm not sure who you're referring to...' you answer.
'You're Y/n... the soldier who frees women like us... who out away the men that do this...'
'Yes...yes I am... you're free now... those men won't hurt you anymore... they're all going to be locked up... so follow me... I'll take you to the outside world again...'
'You're back early...' Steve is the first to hug you. Then Bucky follows behind just as quick.
'Dumbasses thought they didn't need extra protection... so that's another one down and like a million to go...' You reply.
'You're doing good work...we're proud of you...' Bucky smiles at you.
You take their hands into yours and you squeeze them. 'I love you guys...'
'We love you too...'
