Agent X: Out From The Shadows//BuckyBarnesFanFic

Madness

Bucky got a phone call from Steve a few hours after our 'time' together. It seemed pretty urgent so he left in a hurry. I decided to head out and do some of my own research on some things. I headed down the street to an adult store, thinking I would get some answers to questions that I was having. The man who was standing behind the front counter seemed surprised when I walked in, he was unloading a box as he said, "Wow, wouldn't think someone who looks like you would need anything from a store like this." I look around and see a whole bunch of things shaped like male and female genitalia, some of them seemed to vibrate according to the boxes. I walk up to the counter, "Actually, I was hoping you could answer some questions I have." He chuckled, "Lady, I'll be happy to answer whatever questions you have but we'd have to go in the back room for all that." I nod, "Okay, where? Back here?" I point to the door behind me as shock covers his face, "Wait, really? Yeah, right back there. Just head on back and I'll lock the store." I give him a confused look before going into the room. It was dark, I found a light switch by the door but it didn't help anything when I turned it on, it just made everything blue. I looked around and saw a bed along with some more of those things from the store but they were hanging up on the walls and on the table in the middle of the room. I get a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach but I ignore it. The man comes into the room, shuts the door and starts undressing. I just stand there, completely still, "Um, what are you doing?" He stopped and looked over at me, "I thought you wanted me to answer some of your questions?" I nodded, "Well, yes, but why do you have to be naked?" He scoffed, "You'll have to do me a favor too but I expect mine first." He starts walking toward me, "I take the pistol Thor gave me out of my holster quickly and point it at him, "Don't come any closer." He chuckled, "Thats hot." He kept walking toward me but was stopped by someone breaking the door down. He fell down and hit his head on the table in the process, which knocked him out. I made out that the figure in the doorway was Steve, he looked over at the naked man on the ground then back to me, "Don't ask." I said as I walked through the doorway passed him. He chuckled before catching up to me in front of the store. 

"What in the world was happening in there?" I tried to catch my breath but I think I was panicking, he grabbed me, pulled me close to him, "Agent? Agent?" I look up at him as he continues, "Deep breaths, in... out....in....out." He lets me go once I calm down, "Better?" I nod, "Yes, thank you. I never get like that." He looked back at the store, "What happened in there?" I shrug, "I don't really know, I asked him if he would answer some questions I had, I thought since it was an adult store, he'd help me out but he invited me into that room and started taking his clothes off before saying he wanted me to do him a favor first." He let out a sharp angry breath, "Oh my god, you're lucky you're who you are or that could've ended really bad." I nod, "Yeah, I started to gather that he had bad intentions." He sighed as we started walking, "So, what questions did you have for him?" I sigh, "No one ever told me about the things Bucky and I did last night so I just wanted to ask someone about it so I would know what I'm doing next time." He stopped and looked back at me, "What did you and Bucky do last night?" I shrug, "We kissed for a while before he started doing stuff to me then we did stuff together..." I trail off a bit as he starts laughing, he puts his hands on my shoulders, "Agent? It sounds like you and Bucky had sex after a bit of foreplay. If you want to learn more about it, you can learn from him or look it up on the internet. Do not go to strange men for sexual answers, it will not get you anywhere good." He starts walking again as he mumbles, "Bucky, you dog." He shakes his head as he chuckles softly. 

Apparently The Avengers are divided at the moment so Steve takes me to some underground area away from everything where Bucky and Sam are standing around with another woman and a man with a bow and arrow. He's the first to walk up to me with his hand out, "Hi, I'm Clint, this is Wanda." I nod at Wanda as she gives me a smile before shaking his hand, "I'm Agent X." He nods, "In that case, I'm Hawkeye." I chuckle, "Only people close to me can call me by my real name, all in good time." He smirks as he looks over at Bucky then back at me, "Well, I heard you're Thor's sister, is that true?" I feel a little cheeky and throw my hand up, calling to Mjölnir. It takes a second before it shoots through the ceiling directly to my hand. I swing it around for a moment before I assume Thor called it back. Clint chuckles, "That only proves that you are worthy of the power of Thor but I'll choose to believe you're his sister for now based on that." Steve interrupts, "Anyways, the Avengers have been divided so you guys are automatically criminals if you decide to help us." I glance over at Bucky, who is already looking over at me. Our eyes meet and he smirks as he looks back at Steve. He starts explaining what his plan is, I kind of zone him out a little bit because I know he'll end up just bringing me along with him anyways, always seems to be how things work out around here when I'm involved. I didn't even ask or want to be part of his little team, then again, I have never said no either but it was always because I was drawn to Bucky and he's not in any danger so I don't understand why I'm here. I then hear him say, "They're after Bucky so we have to make sure they don't get to him. We have to find a way to prove his innocence. We have to get to the other winter soldiers before he does." I step in front of everyone, "Is this what you were talking about last night when you were saying someone framed you and you had to come back?" Everyone chuckled when I said 'last night' but Bucky kept a stern look on his face, "Yes. Someone killed T'Chaka dressed like me." I cross my arms, "Who is T'Chaka?" Steve chimes in, "He was king of Wakanda and now his son is after him and won't stop until he's dead." He looks over at Bucky with a sad expression. "Well, I'm on your side. I'll do whatever you need me to do." Steve nods at my words before looking over at Bucky, "We actually want you to go and try to talk some sense into the rest." I chuckle softly before realizing he's serious, "Wait, I don't know them like you do, it'd make more sense for you to do it." He shook his head, "No, if we go anywhere near there, we'll be arrested." I scoff, "I seriously doubt it, plus if you did, I could break you out. Easily. You go in there and you talk to them. I won't do that for you. I'm sorry. What I can do though, is hang out in the shadows and save your asses." They all sigh before agreeing and going on their way.

-A few hours later-

Wanda and Clint stayed behind but I managed a way into the rafters and watch as Steve and Bucky are taken away,  Bucky got strapped down in some sort of cube but for some reason, Steve was still out and about walking around freely. It pissed me off a little but I followed and listened. Tony was going on about how Steve was lucky he wasn't locked up. I scoff at that before some older man rushes into the room yelling about something. I notice another man sitting alone at a table across the room, watching the camera of Bucky's cell closely. "That must be who's trying to kill him." I whisper to myself. 

I listen around to hear if anyone will tell anyone where Bucky is before noticing a man walking quickly down a long corridor, I follow him as closely as possible. I see he walked into a room, quickly looking around before shutting it behind him. He looked suspicious so I looked around to see if anyone was nearby before jumping down in front of the door and looking through the little window, he was in the room with Bucky but I couldn't make out what they were saying. I looked over at the man and he pulled out a red book with the Winter Soldier emblem on it. I notice Bucky's face change as he starts yelling something and trying to rip his way out of the cell. I tried to push through the door but it was locked from the inside. I looked around for something to bust the door down with for a few minutes before a bunch of soldiers came rushing into the room. The door flew open as Bucky came out and started piling through the soldiers. None of them could stop him, I was conflicted about what to do after he knocked the last soldier down. I watched him walk toward me with a dead look behind his eyes before a tear strolled down my cheek, "Barnes?" He doesn't budge at all as he shoulder checks me right into the wall and grabs my throat, he slides me up the wall until I give in and kick him off of me. He goes to go after me again before hearing someone coming, he bolts out of the room quickly, I follow as close as I can without him noticing before we get to a room with a bunch of tables, people start screaming in fear as he attacks someone, the room is empty before Tony comes in with an iron man hand on, he tries to go against Bucky but fails. He throws Tony into a table and he goes limp for a moment, I rush over to him as he comes to, "Are you okay?" He nods and yells, "Stop him!" I stand up and see Natasha is about to rush toward him, I run in front of her and slide up behind him, taking his legs out from under him. 

He turns back to me while on the ground and grabs my neck again with his metal arm, squeezing so tight I almost passed out before I grabbed at his fingers and pried them off of my throat before pulling his arm behind me and flipping him onto his back. "Bucky, stop!" He grunts as I get on top of him and hold his arms down above his head. He tries to wiggle his way out for a few seconds before I got distracted by Steve running into the room, I looked away for split second and Bucky head butted me and shoved me across the floor. My head hit the wall and everything went black.

I went in and out for a while, at one point Steve was carrying me, I briefly looked up at him before going out again. As I was coming to, I heard Sam and Steve struggling with something. When I looked over at them, I saw they were sitting Bucky up and using a bench vice to hold his arm in. Sam noticed I was awake and told Steve quickly before setting the gun Thor gave me down in front of me. "Barnes got a hold of this but luckily no one he fired it at got hit." I pick it up and look over at him, "Is he okay?" They both nod, "Yeah, he'll probably just be out for a while." I sigh then get up slowly. I walk over to Steve before I realize that Bucky was able to shoot my gun while he was under. "Wait, did you say that Barnes was able to fire my gun?" Sam nods, "Yeah, he almost took me out with it." I gasp then hand it to him, "Try to shoot it, I need to see if somethings true." He gives me a weird look before aiming it at a wall when he tries to pull the trigger, the gun locks up. He hands it back to me and I shoot it quickly then give it back to him again, the same thing happens. I hand it to Steve, who also can't shoot it, he hands it back to me, "What was that about?" I look down at my name engraved into it and run my finger over it as I say, "Thor had this gun made for me and basically enchanted it. No one besides me and who is worthy of me can shoot it." Steve crosses his arms, "Worthy of you?" I chuckle, "Yeah, I know how it sounds and I asked the same question. It basically means you can't shoot it unless you're of pure heart and truly in love with me. That means when he's under, he's still in there, he just can't control what he's doing. Maybe there's a way to use that to our advantage if it were to happen again." He nods then smirks, "You know, it's actually kind of sweet that you two are a thing. I feel like he really needs someone, I'm glad it's you." I sigh, "I don't know what it is about him but I would do anything for him." He puts his arm over my shoulders, "Don't tell him I said anything but he said the same thing about you." I look up at him and he just smiles and walks off with Sam.
