"Barnes, I know you've gone out of business, and you don't trust me, but I need you're help", Loki says. I sigh.
"How do I know I can trust you?" I ask.
"I never said you could, but I need you're help", Loki says. I sigh.
"I'm sorry, but I can't", I say. He looks down. He walks over towards me.
"If you reconsider, you know where to find me", he says with a smile. He walks out. I look down.

"Papa, eat you're cookies", Olive says.
I look at her.
"What's wrong Papa?", Olive asks.
"I need you to go over to Uncle Fury's for the rest of the day, I have some business to do today", I tell her.
"But Papa, I love being with you at the agency", Olive says. I look at her.
"I'm not going to the agency today", I say. She looks at me with wide eyes.
"This is about the visit from Loki the other day isn't it?", She asks. I stand up. I sigh as I walk over towards her.
"Papa, whatever he wants you to do don't do it!", She says. I touch her head.
"I don't have a choice Olive. Now come on, be strong for me ok?", I ask.
"But I don't want you to go", She says. I pick her up and carry her over to the front door. I grab her coat.
"I know baby. But I have to, I'll be back", I tell her. She looks at me.
"Promise you'll be back for cookies?", She asks. I smile as I place her coat on her.
"I promise", I say. I kiss her head.
"Now go on, have fun", I say as I open the door. She walks out but I put her hood up as she leaves. I pull my shirt down as I watch her reach the neighbor's house. I open a chest and pull out my old vest and set it on the floor.

The guards walk me into the room. Loki turns around. "Ah, Mr. Barnes, I thought you might reconsider", Loki says. I look at him.
"I'm only here for my daughter. I need a guarantee of one thing if I do this".
"What is that Mr. Barnes?", Loki asks.
"The safety of my daughter", I say.
"Done", He says. I walk towards him.
"Shall we get started?", Loki asks.
"Yes", I say. I nod. I take out my old best and put it on. I grab my key to get into the confined area. We walk to the door. Loki opens the portal and we step through. Soon we appear in a room. I take the key and place it through the key hole, unlocking the door.
"You first", I say. Loki looks at me.
"Together", He says. We walk into the room together. Loki goes towards a case and presses a button. He moves out of the way. A case comes out with a chair inside it. It grabs me and straps comes out and I get locked to the chair. The case closed around me.
"Wait! Wait! You lied? I knew you couldn't be trusted!", I say.
"I'm sorry Barnes, it's just the way it is", Loki says. I stare at him.
"My daughter!", I yell.
"Longing", Loki says.
"No...", I whisper.
"Rusted", He says. I squirm in the chair.
"Furnace". Loki says.
"Daybreak", He says. I try to break free from the chair.
"Seventeen", Loki says.
"No! Stop!", I Yell.
"Benign", He says. I squirm more.
"Nine", He says. I bang the glass with the chair.
"Homecoming", He says.
I hit the chair.
"One", Loki says.
"Wait! Wait! I promised my daughter I'd be home to make Cookie later! I promised her! She'll hate me!", I yell.
"If you really loved you're daughter, you never should've come", Loki says.
"Remember, never betray family", He says.
"Freight Car", He says. My mind goes blank and all bad thoughts come back.

I hit my head hard. A few hours later a man appears.
"Buck, do you remember me?", He asks.
"Steve...", I say with a smile.
"You're Steve, you're moms name was Sarah. You used to wear newspapers in you're shoes", I say. He smiles.
"Do you remember Olive?", Steve asks. It all comes flooding back. Steve, The team, Loki, my daughter. Little Olive.
"Where is she? I have to see her!", I say. Steve looks at me with a sympathetic look.
"What? What's happened?", I ask.
"When you were set up. You were gone for months. She was put in an orphanage. Given a new name. Sidney", Steve says. I look down tears coming to my eyes.
"Will I ever see her again?", I ask standing up.
"She's at the school right now", Steve says.
"I can't go", I tell him.
"Why not?", Steve asks.
"Don't you think she'll wonder where you are? She's looking for you! I know what it's like to be left, to wonder why, you never came back", Steve says.
"Why don't you go back?", He asks. I grab him.
"BECAUSE I LEFT HER! SHE'LL HATE ME!", I yell. Steve looks at me.
"No she won't. She's looking for you", Steve says handing me a sign. I take it.
"Go to her. Everything will be fine, I promise, Buck", Steve says. I smile. I open the paper. It's a drawing of me that reads: 'Have you seen my Papa?'.

I walk out from the street onto the sidewalk. I see the bus unloading. I see her come off the bus. She walks along.
I look at her and ruffle my eyebrows.
"Olive", I say. She stops in her tracks.
"Papa!", she says as she turns around and runs towards me. My eyes start to well up. She wraps her arms around me as I kneel down on the ground.
"You found me! I knew you would!", She says. I fall backwards a little bit. Tears come down my face. She forgave me. Steve was right. I have her back.
I stand up not letting go of Olive. I carry her as I walk back towards the house. "I'm sorry I left you princess", I whisper. She snuggles into my neck.
"It's ok Papa, I'm just glad you're back", She says. I smile. Tears still falling.
"I love you Papa", Olive says.
"I love you too Princess", I say.
