Secrets

*2 week time skip*
"Buck? We need you for a mission" Steve says through my door
"Piss of Steve" I reply
"It's Hydra, they could have information about-" Steve begins
I stand up and open my door aggressively
"Don't" I say
"Alright, I'm sorry. You have to go, we are short and we need four people to go" Steve explains
"Fuck sake" I murmer
We head downstairs. Everyone is silent when we walk into the meeting room
"Like a bloody ghost town in here" I say under my breath
I sit down far away from anyone
"Alright, Sokovian base apparently has some information and a dangerous captive. Yelena, Nat, Wanda and Bucky will be leaving tomorrow morning. The aim is get any useful information,  take the prisoner and anything else that's dangerous in Hydra's hands" Tony explains
They talk for a bit more but all I can think about is getting revenge on everyone because of Blair. I leave without talking to anyone and go back to my room.

*the mission*
Yelena's pov:
"Are we there yet?" I ask impatiently
"For the last time, nearly" Nat replies
"And how long is nearly?"
"45 minutes" Bucky replies bluntly
"Thank you" I say
He rolls his eyes
"Someone's in a mood" I murmer
Wanda laughs but my sister nudges me
"Sorry, sorry. Just trying to lighten the mood" I throw my hands up I surrender.

*45 min time skip*
Bucky's pov:
Just don't think of her, that's all. Busy yourself with the mission. Do the job, go home.

"Right, Yelena and Bucky go look for the hostage. Wanda and I will look for the files then we will meet up and look for anything else we could take" Natasha says
We all head towards the entrance. Wanda corrupts a few minds of the guards and we get in using Tony's technology. We split up and search the corridor on the left.

Most of them are training rooms or rooms filled with machines. We reach the end and a metal door with a window is in front of us
"Seems promising" Yelena says
I try look through the window but it's frosted glass, so practically useless. We barge through, expecting to see guards but, just like the rest of the facility its empty. Instead, we have walked right into a cell. There is a figure stood in the shadows and suddenly Yelena catches something aimed at her face
"Hi!" She says, drawing out the 'I'
"Who are you?" The girl says
Her voice sounds familiar, but I can't quite place it
"I'm Yelena, this is Bucky" Yelena replies
"Why are you here?" The girl asks
"To rescue you. Why don't you step closer so we can talk properly" I say
The girl starts walking forwards. When she's completely out of the shade I see her. The girl looks like Blair, but isn't. Her wings are the same size, but black- not white. Her hair is the same black and white, but braided like how Blairs used to me. That voice is like Blair's.
I share a concerned look at Yelena "Kid, I need to ask you a question" I say
She nods
"Do you know Project Angel?" I ask
The girl tenses up
"Eka?" She says
"What?" I ask
"Ekaterina. That was the name I gave her before she went missing" the girl says
"How do you know her?" Yelena asks
"She's my sister. Is she okay? I mean I'm assuming you have her since you know about her" she says
"I'm sorry kid, but your sister died two weeks ago" Yelena replies
"No! That's not true! Eka can't be dead" the girl wipes away a tear
"I'm sorry uhhh... what's your name?" Yelena asks
"Anastasia, and we need to go now" She leads us out the cell but we don't go to the exit. Instead we stop at a new door and Anastasia goes in. A few moments later she comes back with a bag of something
"We have the hostage" I say into the earpiece
"Anastasia is there anything here worth taking?" I ask the girl
"Not anymore,  it's all in here" She points to the bag
"We have already searched the facilities, meet back at the jet" I say.

We head back to the exit, but 6 guards are waiting for us. Anastasia steps infront of us and holds up her hands. White wisps, just like Blair's back ones cover the agents and they fall to the group
"Are they knocked out or..." Yelena begins
"Dead" Anastatia finishes
We exit the base and run back to the jet. Natasha and Wanda are already there.

"She looks like..." Wanda begins
"Blair, I know. This is Anastatia, her sister" I cut in
"Please, just call me Ana" she says
"Blair didn't mention a sister" Nat replies
"Her memories got wiped when she was taken. She forgot her name and... me" Ana says sadly
"Ana calls her Ekaterina" I explain
"How come you two look the exact same?" Wanda asks
"Well, obviously our father did the same experiments on us but we are twins. I'm older though, by 3 minutes" Ana replies.

"How come you remember?" I ask
"I'm a pretty good liar, I pretended I didn't remember anything so they didn't mind wipe me again"
"And how do we know you're not lying right now?" I reply
"Two reasons. One, if my sister is really dead I need to see her, I've been hoping on any news of her for 6 years. Two, she's in my head right now and not freaking out" she points at Wanda
Wanda raises her eyebrows.

*back at the compound*
"You don't need to cuff her, she's not dangerous" I walk past Tony and take Anastatia straight to Blair. We enter the room and she goes straight to the chamber
"We have frozen her until her funeral" I explain
"I need her out, now" Ana says
"I can't do that"
"I wasn't asking" Ana then lifts her hand towards me, like she did the guards, and I black out.

*Time skip*
I wake up with a slight headache. I see a white light at the far end of the room and I stager towards it. I see Blair's body, and the light is coming from Ana's fingers. The other hand is injecting a liquid into her, whilst the other seems to be covering Blair in a purple mist
"What are you doing?" I ask
"You will see" is all she says
I get pushed down onto a chair by a flick of Ana's hand. I stay there and watch.

*Time skip 1 hour*
"Finally!" Anastasia says
I stand up and go over to the table. She has stopped working on Blair and the purple mist is solidifying
"Is that..." I begin
"Power stone" Ana finishes
"What did it do to her?" I ask
Before Ana can reply Blair jolts up quickly, breathing rapidly
"Сестра?" (Sister?) Ana asks
"Anastasia!" Blair replies and throws her arms around her sister. I just stand there, confused and shocked
"You need to rest. You still have the mist fixing you" Ana says
"Okay" Blair replies
She looks at me and I embrace her quickly, trying not to cry
"I'm sorry Bucket" She says into my chest
"It was our fault. I'm just so glad you are alive" I reply through happy tears. Blair pulls away and sits back onto the bed.
