I Wish I Could Tell You Something...

Part 7

Back at the Avenger's Tower, Bucky was sitting alone in the room where he had been talking to you from. He leaned back in his chair and sighed. He was glad to know that you were safe, but the fact that Hydra was controlling your mind made him worried. Steve appeared next to the room's entrance. He saw that Bucky's forehead was furrowed. He knocked his knuckles against the door's frame. Bucky glanced over at him.

"I assume that you're done?" said Steve. Bucky nodded and stood up.

"Yeah." He walked across the room to a window. He stood there silently staring out of it for a few moments.

"Is she ok?"

"She's fine. She isn't the only one there. There are four of them, and one is Gabe."

"Gabe? From the Commandos?" Bucky nodded his head. "How did he get there?"

"He never left. When you two were taken from the train to the fortress, he got put away. Seems as though he got frozen like the rest of us." Steve was surprised.

"Really, how many people in the forties got frozen? At first it seemed like just (Y\N) and I, but now all of these other people keep popping up out of the woodwork!" Bucky laughed.

"I know exactly what you mean." He smiled a weak smile.

"Ok, so you said that she is ok. Why are you so upset then?"

"They are using her, Steve. They are using her like they used me. I can't let them do that. I know how painful it all is. It is my duty as a soldier and a husband to not let anyone, especially my own wife endure that kind of torture." Steve quietly nodded his head. He paused for a few moments before he kept talking so that Bucky could calm down.

"Did she say anything else?" He finally said.

"Not really. She wants me to tell everyone that she says hello and to give James an extra kiss tonight for her. She doesn't know where she is, though. How are we supposed to rescuer her if we don't know where to look?" Then Steve got an idea.

"Banner. How come we haven't gone to him for help yet?" Steve started to leave the room.

"Hasn't he been gone with Tony on that 'business trip' to Canada?"

"I mean before that. Why didn't we go to him first? He may just be our greatest resource for finding (Y\N)!" Steve walked out of the room's door. Bucky was still confused, but he followed after Steve anyway.

"I don't understand. Wouldn't Banner have heard bout the situation and mentioned the fact that he could help us?"

"Bruce doesn't know that (Y\N) is missing. He has been gone. Tony came back from when they were researching and said that Brice would be staying there for a couple more months. Unless Tony told him about it, he doesn't know." Bucky nodded his head.

"So how are we going to be able to contact him?"

"Well, we can ask Tony to set up a video call to Bruce for us."

"Okay, but how would Bruce be able to find (Y\N)'s location there without trying to track the signal that came through when I just spoke to her?" Steve shrugged his shoulders.

"Banner has his ways. He is the smartest person I know." Bucky smirked.

"You used to say that about me. Are you sure he is so great?"

"Bucky, the context I said that about you in was about baseball players. There is difference between finding your wife and the batting averages of the Dodgers back when they were still called the Robins. I still take offence to the fact that Brooklyn traded them to Los Angeles." Bucky stopped in his tracks.

"I'm sorry, what?" he said stone faced. Steve regretted everything.

"Umm." he started slowly. "In '57, Brooklyn traded the Dodgers to Los Angeles." Steve winced in preparation for the eminent yelling.

"WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?" Bucky yelled at the top of his lungs. Steve regretted life. The two kept walking down the hall-Bucky yelling and Steve murmuring to himself about being an idiot.( A sample of the context is as follows. Bucky- "THOSE F-ING IDIOTS DON'T UNDERSTAND THE GAME. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND A THING. THEY STOLE OUR TEAM. WE NEED TO HOLD A PROTEST. DID NO ONE COMPLAIN? IF I HADN'T BEEN IN THAT F-ING CRYOFREEZE, THEY WOULDN'T HAVE LEFT. THEY WOULDN'T HAVE DARED TO." Steve-"I hate you, Rogers. You are an idiot, Steve. What would Peggy say? She would slap me. I know it. I'm such an idiot. I should just go and hide. He won't stop for hours. Should I run? No, that would make it worse. Then he'll start the crying phase of his sadness. I can't deal with this right now.")

*Elsewhere in the tower*

The Babysitter Bros (Thor and Clint) had just been having nap time with James, but James didn't want to take a nap. He decided instead to wait until the two adults fell asleep and then escape to Auntie Nat. He ran from the room in his little socked feet and got into the elevator. He stood in there holding Redwing while the elevator went to Natasha's floor. James had gotten into the habit of doing this for a couple of days, and rather than ask him where he wanted to go, Jarvis started to just take him to whatever floor she was on. When Jarvis would ask where James wanted to go, the answer was always "Natie", his mashup of Auntie and Natasha.

When the elevator got to the correct floor, James walked down the hall into the Natasha's living room. She was sitting on the couch watching a movie. He walked over to the couch where she was sitting, threw Redwing over the side, and hoisted himself up onto the couch. He then sat there smiling at Natasha.

"Yeah, smile all you want, you little escapees artist, but you do have to go back. Thor and Clint are very proud of the daycare that they made for you. You don't want to make them sad, do you?" James hung his head and shook it rapidly. Natasha sat up and looked at him wiggling his legs over the edge of the couch. He looked up at her and grinned again, his bright blue eyes sparkling. "Ok, let's go." James frowned and climbed down.

"No." he ran over to an armchair and hid behind it. Natasha laughed and stood up.

"Barney, come back here. I'm too old to chase after you. At least when I'm chasing after adults, I'm allowed to be slower." James giggled from behind the chair. Natasha walked over to the chair to catch James, but he then bolted out of the room and into Natasha's bedroom where he hid under the bed. "Okay, Barney, here's the deal. If you come out now, I'll give you a cookie before we go down." James' head instantly popped out from under the bed. He crawled out and stood up. He then clung to Natasha's leg.

"Cookie, Cookie, Cookie." he kept saying repeatedly. Natasha waddled to thru kitchen and got him a cookie. He was eating the cookie as she carried him to the elevator.

"James, I do believe that you are the cutest little boy in the world."
