Aftermath [winter soldier//Bucky Barnes AU]

Chapter Eleven

DISCLAIMER: I know I am writing about Age of Ultron now, but every part won't be exactly the same as it was in the movie because that would be boring for both the readers and me, the author. Plus there are different characters in this story than the movie :) so please don't comment on how "he didn't say that in the movie!!!1!!!1!" because I did that on the purpose! Thank u ily

SARAH'S POV

Not even ten minutes before we finally landed, a loud alarm rang through the plane, signaling an important incoming call. I opened my eyes groggily from my nap to see Fury grab the phone, a look of irritation displayed across his features as he snapped a quick, "Fury!"

I rubbed my eyes as whoever was on the other line spoke. I couldn't hear them, but I could tell that whatever they were saying was important because Fury's eyes were widening.

"What? Are you sure?" He hissed, turning away from the rest of us. I appeared to be the only one that was awake, but I don't think he noticed.

A few moments of silence passed before he spoke again.

"Castle on a hill? Are you reading from a children's book?"

His irritated tone suggested that the person on the other line had told him something he wasn't excited about in the least. I sat up slightly, untangling myself from Bucky's embrace, and leaned forward to hear him better.

"I'll tell the team then. They will be less than thrilled to know that they have to rescue it again." He breathed, yanking the phone from his ear and locking it in frustration. My eyebrows furrowed at the last thing he said. Rescue it again?

I apparently didn't have to wait long for an answer, though, as after one more sigh he whipped around and shouted, "Everyone up!"

I jumped at his sudden actions, as did a few others on the team. Natasha was up and alert within a second, along with Bucky and Steve, whereas Tony continued snoring on the floor. Everyone else got up quickly and stood at attention. I stood with them, leaning over and kicking Tony. His eyes snapped open with a growl.

"Sarah, if you ever kick me awake again, I will take away your breakfast privileges for a month." He muttered, grumbling a few more choice words before peeling himself up off the floor and righting himself beside me. I rolled my eyes.

"Pepper would never agree to that. If anything, she'd applaud me for waking you up with a kick to the gut."

Tony's eye twitched, as he knew that was probably true, and didn't reply. Fury's booming voice jolted us as he began speaking again.

"I just got off the phone with Hill. Not only is Sokovia important, it is currently harboring Loki's scepter, which means Hydra has the Tesseract." He blurted, getting straight to the point. My eyes widened as I took the information in. Of all things I expected to find here, Loki's scepter was definitely not one of them, and the last time I saw him was still fresh in my mind. I wanted nothing to do with anything Loki related at all, and I could see the same feeling on the faces of the rest of the team.

"How did they get a hold of it? Loki would never let it go willingly." Thor wondered aloud, his lip pinched between his thumb and forefinger in concentration.

"I don't know, but the point is that they have it, which means we need to get it. We land in five minutes, and the second we land we are attacking. So get your shit together so we can plan." Fury ordered, and we sprang immediately into action. Bucky and I hurried back to where our packed bags sat above our chairs and I grabbed mine, hauling it down the floor before unzipping it and shuffling through my things for my catsuit. My hands landed on the bulletproof material and I slipped it on over my tank top and leggings.
