I woke up to streams of warm sun coming through the window. I looked over to see no Bucky. I shot up looking around the room. He came down the hallway. "I can't believe Sam gave up the shield." He said lowly.

"Good morning to you too!" I said mockingly standing up.

"Get your gear on." He sighed walking over to his kitchen. To get some coffee.

"Wha- why?-" I was confused but I still went over to my bag for my gear. Unzipping the main pocket I thought I needed to get a new bag. I slipped on the pants and the belt and the jacket with the arm still on. I grabbed my mask but didn't know that I'd need it.

"Where we going?" I asked as we got in his car. I shut the door and out my seat belt on. I looked out the window.

We walked through the building seeing Sam walking down the stares with a green duffle bag in his hand.
"You shouldn't have given up the shield!" Bucky called to him.
"Good to see you too guys." He said unimpressed. Well fell in step beside him.
"That was wrong." I insisted, continuing to walk with them.

"Hey, hey, Im working. So all this outrage is gonna have to wait." He said a hint of frustration in his voice. "You didn't know that was gonna happen?" Bucky sounded alittle shocked.

"No of course I didn't know that was gonna happen!" He almost whispered.
"You think it didn't break my heart to see them march him out there, calling him the new captain america?" Sam said.

"Steve didn't want this." Bucky blatantly said. "What am I supposed to do? Call up America saying I changed my mind?" He said sarcastically. "Heh, yeah, great reunion buddy." He said nudging Bucky in the stomach.

"You had no right to give up the shield, Sam." Bucky said as Sam stopped turning to us. "Ok listen, heres what your not gonna do, your not gonna come over here in your over extended life-" I chuckled abit, Bucky glared at me. "-and tell me my rights... Its over Bucky." He said sternly. "Besides I have bigger things to do." He said about to turn away.

I hadn't known Steve as well as Bucky but I still knew him as a friend. "What could be bigger than this?" I scoffed.

Sam pulled out his phone showing a masked guy. "This guy, hes got his connections with rebel organizations all over Eastern and Central Europe, and he's strong. Too strong." Sam explained lowing his phone looking at Bucky.

Buck brought his head up tilting it. "And?" He said briskly. I elbowed him in the gut for the rude comment. He grunted glaring at me confused.

Sam sighed. "Well he's been connected to this online group called the Flag Smashers. Now Redwing traced them to a building somewhere outside of Munich. So thats where I'm going." Sam finished. He started walking away.

"Well I don't trust Redwing.- Hold on a minute!" Bucky tried to talk. "-You don't have to trust Redwing, but Imma go see if he's right. Cause I have a feeling it's one of the Big Three." Sam said stopping.

"What Big Three?" Bucky asked clueless. Oh my gosh this man. "The Big three, Androids, Aliens, and Wizards." I explained.
"-Thats not a thing-" he said. I swear Im loosing braincells.
"Thats definitely a thing." Sam added in.
"No it's not"Bucky said.
"Everytime we fight, it's one of the three." Sam explained. "So who are you fighting now? Gandalf?" Bucky said jokingly. "How do you know about Gandalf?" Sam asked. I looked at him abit surprised. "He read The Hobbit when the book was first published in 1937. Now can you two please stop bickering so we can go?" I laughed abit.
"As you wish princess." Bucky said mockingly.

We were in the plane. I was sitting on a metal container. Sam and Buck were intensely staring at eachother. I looked between them noticing alot of tension. "Jeez you ever blink?" "Shut up Riley." Bucky said sounding annoyed.  "Whats up with you Iceman?" I teased.He quickly shot up putting two arms on the edge of the container on either side of me. His face barley 3 inches away from mine. "Don't fucking call me that Riley. Or I swear I will throw you off of this plane." He said lowly. I felt butterflies in my stomach grow as I looked at his piercing blue eyes.
