Everyone was sitting in the big lounge area in the Secret Avengers Facility, including Kylie. The only few that weren't present was Tony and June. 
    Tony entered swiftly, putting his phone down. "Okay, Kylie said that this power tech is extremely powerful and uses some alien tech too. Run some ideas by me." He made some hand gestures.
    "Um, well that much power, it should let out some sort of radiation, or at least something we can track," Bruce thought up.
"We don't have magic trackers though," Peter pointed out. His eyes lit up. "Unless we do!"
    Tony shook his head. "We don't. But Shuri's coming here in around 40 minutes for June's check-up, we can work with her to make something."
"Hey, where is June?" Natasha asked, looking around.
    "Right here, it's cool guys I'm fine." June awkwardly leaned on the walls, all her clothes ruffled and hair a little frizzy.
. "Oh wow, Adler, you look like a mess, are you sure you're fine?" Bruce asked.
June dazedly waved away the suggestion. "No, just some odd dream vision things, nothing too important. But is this I hear now, major high tech alien weapons loose and could potentially take out this planet?"
    Tony frowned. "Take out this planet? No, June this is just some geeks who thought they could outsmart us, it's fine. No planet is going to be taken out." He leaned against the couch.
June blinked a few times. "Oh. Okay, I thought I heard...never mind," she stepped forward. "Um, oh hello new girl,"
    Kylie smiled. "Yea, hi my name is Kylie."
June smiled back and there were a few awkward seconds before she replied. "Sorry to hear that it was your father who invented the major high tech alien weapons that could not potentially take out the planet. Young childhood trauma caused by one's mother's death,"
    Kylie's muscles tensed but June seemed lost in her own words as she kept talking. "Combined with your abusive father with the alcohol and the harsh living conditions, I mean that is truly horrible, you haven't had any chaotic tendencies but you seem to have handled it pretty well, the bow and arrows are nice, inventive, you're smart, but how smart?
    "Not enough to have memorized the blueprints you caught a look of to realize that they were gonna kill Stark but then again, it's not much about one's intelligence but of how accurate your photographic memory is but I have quite a high level of photographic memory and you have that memory that means I can read your memory and that means we can have the blueprints of at least one weapon,
     "But most weapons of such high potential destruction normally have an 'off' switch built in by the inventors, and normally the inventors put in similar 'off' switch in every other weapon they've built because of the lack of creativity." 
    June paused and glanced up at the Avenger's confused faces.
"Wait but couldn't we just blow up the weapons?" Steve asked.
June faltered. "What? No because of the alien tech. It'd be a lot harder to destroy with an explosion. In fact, the weapon itself would create an explosion and still be deadly to this planet."
    "Why do you keep talking about the planet's destruction?" Tony exclaimed.
June blinked. "I don't know. I'm still very confused about last night?"
"Nothing happened last night." Natasha pointed out.
June nodded slightly. "Yes. I meant last night." she turned around but turned back to face them.
    "When's Shuri coming?" she plainly asked.
"In half an hour?" Tony answered.
"Cool thanks." she walked forward, bumping into a wall before turning left into the staircase.
    Kylie frowned.
Tony sighed. "Sorry Kylie, she's not normally like that. We've just found out she's had an odd, unknown past and her memories are a little odd. Just ignore that part."
Steve stood up. "Well, until Shuri gets here, let's chill."

Everyone was still in the big lounge but they were spread out, doing their own thing. 
    Steve and Natasha were sitting on the opposites on the couch, talking about infiltration tactics. June walked up to them and sat down next to Natasha.
"What's up, you seemed a little weird back there." Natasha wondered.
June clenched her clipboard. "I'm not sure. I just need to let off some steam, Shuri's gonna be here in 20 minutes I need to be back to normal till then."
    Before either of them could answer Tony sat down next to Steve.
"Hey June, I was talking to Fury earlier and he accidentally mentioned a secret you have, what might that be? He shut up after I asked him about it."
Steve opened his mouth to tell Tony to shut up himself but June stopped him. "It's really nothing Tony. It was back before a bit after I was found unconscious on the experiment table in the abandoned hospital Hydra caught me in. He was talking about something and then I attacked him. I'm not sure why myself but he's sure that I know why. I don't."
    Tony nodded slowly before leaning in slightly. "Okay...but seriously, what's up with Barnes? He's the only one of us that you haven't spoken to? Is there a reason?"
This time  Natasha was about to speak but June began talking first. "Tony, I don't know."
"Wow, okay no need to be harsh. It's just Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes, a friendly assassin there really nothing to be afraid of--"
    June slammed her clipboard onto the coffee table. "Shut up!" she hissed as she took out her switchblade and held it to Tony's throat within seconds.
. Steve and Natasha stood up. "Whoa whoa, June clam down,"

     "Sorry, June, I didn't know he was your weak point," Tony exclaimed. Her face twitched as her eyes flickered. 
She dropped her knife and stepped back. "Oh my god." Her hair fell down in front of her face as she stared into the ground.
    Natasha stepped towards here slowly. "June it's alright, Tony can be a bit annoying sometimes, even I want to slit his throat at times." 
June stepped away from the couch set. "No stay back." she held her hands to her head. "Ugh the sound, it's ringing endlessly, where on earth it is ringing from!?" she screamed as she dropped to the ground.
    Bucky, who was nearby walked slowly towards her. "Ringing?" he muttered. June tried to cover her ears. 
"Bucky maybe don't--" Steve called. He was cut off by a purple blast. Steve smashed into the glass wall behind him.
June was on the ground, her arm out towards Steve. "Steve..." she stood up warily and stepped forward towards him.
    Natasha stopped her. "Don't June, not now, you're clearly unstable."
June shook her head. "No wait," she muttered with a strain on her voice. "Steve Rogers. You were always important to him, I'm not the one who can fix you...he can..." she stumbled. "Go find Steve Rogers." 
    Natasha frowned. "What...?" She glanced at her. Her eyes were misty purple, not the dull drown they normally were.
June coughed. "You seem...to know The Winter Soldiers...Activation words pretty well." June turned around to face the others. "Now..you're going to get your own..." she croaked, "They will be...James...Buchanan...Bucky--" she collapsed onto the ground.
    Steve stood up, clutching his shoulder. Natasha took a deep breath. 
June moved the hair from her face and glanced into Bucky's eyes. "Barnes. Kill Barnes," she whispered as her fingers wrapped around the switchblade she dropped earlier.
