Bucky POV

I Hadn't left the tower much since living here. Steve is worried, but what did he expect? I'm not going to prance out there with my weapon of an arm. Sometimes I wish he'd buzz off, as much as I love the man.

But today Tony was having another one of his balls in the tower spaces, so I'm leaving. I might just walk around the grassy park until I stop hearing the party music.

When I leave my room I spot a few coordinators setting up fountains. I cringe and hurry my pace before I start seeing familiar faces appear. I passed Clint and Natasha, who were talking at the moment.

I give a quick glance before focusing on my exit. "Hey, big guy. Where are you going?" The spy asks. "Out. Park." I say, hoping to disinterest her. "Be back soon." She just says.

I take the Stairs, as it's always awkward in the elevator with workers. But I made it out of the building, and to a nearby park. Unfortunately, it was decently busy.

I almost turn around when I glance at the woods behind a building. I see a figure glance and go deeper into the trees. It could've been a lost girl...

Although we were close to civilization, I wasn't sure of that reaction. Maybe somebody was threatening her, or she was being trafficked. I kept up my speed.

I wandered through the forest until I saw another footstep. I called out "Hello? Are you lost? I'm not here to hurt you." I hoped I wouldn't scare her. But who am I kidding?

I'm a monster, following some girl through the woods. I stumbled across a flag, covered in dirt. I hadn't noticed how long I had been walking. The sun was already going down.

I didn't stop to see the sunset when a girl could be hurt. So I make quicker steps, before smoke emerges, flying past me. I quickly ready myself for a hit, but nothing comes.

I decided to take further steps before I told myself I had just hallucinated it. Maybe I just don't know anything anymore. I might be alive but... am I?

I move closer to the creepy branches and let them prick my sides. I remember when we had the huge party before I went off with the 107 into the war. Steve and I had a blast with Carter and Howard.

I hadn't noticed myself begin to dance like we had that night. I just wish I could step into that shitty bar again. I snap out of my episode when a branch scraps my arm.

A supersoldier- being cut by a branch. If only Hydra could see me now. I glance at the blood dropped on the rocks below me. It just seemed to seep through the cracks.

Like I had. I sigh before closing my eyes for a second of peace. Because that's all I'll get. All I'll ever get. I burst open my eyes when I heard a strike of lightning.

Hundreds of crows had surrounded the area, making sharp turns into me. That's when I saw the ground shake. A hand emerged from the pile, pushing rocks away with its force.

Maybe I would've screamed if I hadn't believed I imagined the thing. But I knew this was real. The woman emerging from the ground was real.

She wore scraped Victorian clothing, but even then.. she looked like a goddess. The only speck of color was the blood dripped on her lip. After a second of hesitation, she dips it into her mouth.

It was like a switch was set off in her, her eyes flickered from normal to black-filled. Noticing this she quickly wipes it off with her sleeve. She looked repulsed before she noticed me.

"Are.. you alright?" I ask because I don't really know what to say. She made me feel like a student again. She glances again at me and herself. "I.." She coughs.

"Can't be here.." She finishes, "Hey, did somebody put you there?" I ask again, just wanting answers, any. I didn't know what the hell I just saw.

She takes a step back, before running. "Hey!" I yell, trying to catch up. But she had some good speed. I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to catch up.

After making a few turns she finally makes an abrupt stop at the end of the forest. "No.." I heard her breathe out before I grabbed her arm.

Regular POV

You snapped to look behind you, at the man holding your arm. But you were interrupted by a child running by and falling on his knees. The sight of blood threw you off.

You began to breathe heavily, holding yourself back. This was a strange frenzy coming on. You cover his hand with yours to make his grip stronger on you. "Don't let go." You say simply.

Bucky couldn't say a word, he was at a loss of- everything. He just saw somebody rise from a grave. Bucky loosened his grip before tightening as you asked.

You were shaking in anticipation. In a flash, you were smoking and out of the super-soldier's grip.

💫

You woke up to a calamity of loud sounds. Everything just felt so loud and scary, scarier than before. You look up to see yourself in a pet store, not that you knew what that was.

You had a bunny in your hands, now dead and bleeding. But for some reason, it seemed so appealing. You threw the body away from yours before scooting away from it.

You had killed that poor bunny. And drank its blood. You were a monster. You looked around again to see the man from earlier, standing in front of you. while others screamed and ran out.

He kneels in front of you before saying "It's alright. I- know you weren't trying to hurt anybody.." He sighs, "I believe you." You hadn't known what he meant but he was right. you didn't.

"Did I-'' You begin, "No- You pushed yourself off him, and ran here," Bucky explains, You look at the bunny again, covering your mouth. He steps in front of it, blocking the view.

"Who are you?" He asks. "... Y/n L/N." You say, "My-name is James." He gets out. "I can take you somewhere.. Where people can help you.." he begins.

You look up, "pardon.. But I'm out of control.. I can't control- I'll hurt somebody." you explain. He hesitates to hold out his hand.

"That's what I used to think too."
