The Crimson Ghost (Steve x Reader)

Chapter 35. Only the crimson ghost

Steve's POV
Y/N looks at me with angry eyes, I then look at Elmer who got a mischievous grin on his face. "You really did a number on her Captain, we wiped her three times before she could forget you." I turn to Y/N. "Y/N, you know me! Please remember me." I beg. She doesn't flinch, she only takes a step forward.

"Y/N is not here, only The Crimson Ghost." She says with a cold tone. "Please, don't do this." I say with a low but firm voice.

"Crimson, tell Captain and the Winter Soldier about our visionary." "Yes sir. Cut off one head... And two more will take it's place." "Good..." "But." She cut him off and turned to Elmer. "Cut off all heads, and the Hydra will fall." She said and then swung her sword and cut off his head. "Hail Hydra." She whispered, but not low enough for me to miss it.

"Excuse me, I have stuff I need to do." She says and tries to pass me and Bucky. I grab her by the arm and look into her eyes, that's now filled with sadness. "I do not need your pity Captain." "I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking clearly. I wasn't thinking about how you must have felt around new people, constantly worrying about being hurt. I should've realized! I am so sorry Y/N. I..." "Shut up!"

"But I-I.." I get cut off by her lips meeting mine. I was shocked at first. Then I kissed her back. The passion and joy I felt was batter than anything I had ever experienced before.

"Uhm, guys? Sorry to interrupt your moment, but there's kinda a small army coming towards us." Bucky says and we break the kiss. Y/N walks out in the hall before I could stop her and I close my eyes.

I open my eyes when I hear a lot of gunfire but not hearing a body drop. I look up to see her holding her hand in front of her and bullets hovering in the air. She turns to me and Bucky and nods to signal that we should step behind her.

When we're behind her she looks at me with a face seeking forgiveness. She then turns and takes up her other hand, making the Hydra agents freeze in their place, and their eyes widen in horror.

Your POV
You flick your wrist to the side and shoot the bullets to their head. All 20 of them drop dead. You sigh. You know Steve won't approve of your actions. But Y/N wasn't there right now. The only one there was the Crimson Ghost.

You lead them towards the exit. But you meet a wall of agents. You hear someone say that you are the only avengers left in the building in Steve's comm. You turn to him with a concerned look, also questioning. You didn't want to kill fifty more men, without his approval. For some reason, his authority was making you submissive. Steve looks at you with scared eyes. When he see your questioning look, he nods, not hesitantly, but determined.

You take a step forward, that makes the Hydra agents grip harder around their guns. "Are you the only ones left?" I ask them. "Yes, and we are fifty men that will stop you from walking through that door!" A man that's most likely to be the leader says.

You sigh. You lift your hands. You focus you left arm to keep them where they stand. You take a few step forward and look back to Steve and Bucky, and give them a 'you need to take a few steps back.' look, and they move back. You turn to face the Hydra Agents.

"Hail Hydra." You say and make your right hand into a fist. The agents starts to bleed out their ears, eyes, nose and mouth and soon they all lay on the floor, surrounded by dark Crimson.

You look at the agents, the serum made your telegenic powers surface at full. You didn't feel remorse for these men. You knew that these men had no family. This was the strike team. They needed to be expandable.

You feel a hand on your shoulder, you turn to see Steve with an empathetic smile. You knew he was probably really freaked out, but he kept it together to help you.
