CAPTIVE [Bucky Barnes x OC] 18+

21 || Sleeplessness and Nightmares

"I know you're here, Marie." His dark voice echoes from the concrete walls, pulsing in her ears.

It sends shivers down her spine.

M presses her back hard against the wall around the corner, making herself as flat as physically possible.

He's fucking pissed.

She could sense it. She could hear it - in his voice, in his walk.
His steps are heavy and slow, as if he's dragging something, or someone, behind him. Well, it'll probably be the first.

Keller's calm when he's mad. He rarely yells, instead he speaks with a light and soft voice. It's chilling. He's like the eye of a tornado before hell breaks loose and makes you feel guilty even if you didn't do anything wrong. He shows you how disappointed he is, talks you into guilt until you finally beliefe you're the problem. Then he punishes you.

Brock, on the other hand, doesn't know what being 'calm' even means. He's like a black hole. He pulls all his anger and madness in, even those of the people around him. He's got the weird talent of making everyone around him feel calm when he's pissed, which makes him even angrier. He's fearless. An unpredictable force. Then he explodes.

"You can't hide" he yells. His voice is so heavy, it drags her down.

Something behind him makes a very nasty sound. Like a crowbar hitting metal. You know, the disgustingly ringing, clanking sound that creeps up your bones.

Marie shuffles to the side as silently as possible. Her bare feet are cold on the wet, molding concrete. She sucks in her breath and tries to hold it as long as possible without panting - or possibly dying.

Though she'd rather die, to be honest.

"Be glad it's me who picked you up" he said. His voice comes from right around the corner. He's so close she can almost feel his breath on her bare shoulder. Goosebumps emerge all over her skin.

M's very, very cold.

His sole presence is like ice.

"You know what he'd do to you, so better keep up with me" he presses on through clenched teeth.

Something hits the concrete wall to her left. It's definitely a crowbar. Marie knows that sound. Rumlow fucking loves that thing.

She moves further to the right, away from his angry voice. Her right shoulder suddenly doesn't touch the wall anymore, instead it hits cold metal.

Fuck my life she thinks. There's no fucking way to escape him. The only door to this side leads to Keller's second office, where he does his studies. Not the one where he likes to examine his experiments - or better say her.

This one is way smaller, has no windows, and the fucking door is heavy.

God you're such an idiot, Marie!

This is a fucking dead end. There's no other way.

His heavy steps reach around the corner.

Her heart stops beating for a solid ten seconds when he steps around the corner. His tall, well-build, and very strong body appears in front of her. He takes in all the light that comes from the luminescent on the ceiling, which makes him look like the fucking devil himself. He's got that nasty, arrogant smirk on his face.

The crowbar in his right hand bounces up and down with every large step he takes in front of her. His leather combat boots sound like thunder on the floor. Nothing compared to the silence of her cold, naked feet.
