Tenebris Angelus

Chapter 14

Steve's PoV

I got a call about Bucky freaking out and Angel going missing. I didn't even know she was back, I thought she was dead. We now know hydra have her and we're searching for bases they have. After months of searching and going to all facilities we can find. We get to one, it's been abandoned. I search the hallways and rooms checking for information they could have about her so far we have nothing to where she could be, I get to a door which is locked. I kicked the door and it swung open to reveal a dark small room with a damp floor from water and blood, there was a woman laying in the middle of the floor.

The woman flinched when I opened the door, she brought her knees to her chest expecting someone to hurt her. How could someone treat her like this. She had pure white hair that covered her face that was tucked down into her knees. Her clothes were ripped and she had cuts all over her. I slowly place my hand on her shoulder and she flinched, I kept my hand there to show I wasn't a threat "hey it's okay you're safe now". The girl lifts her head up to look at me, some hair stays infront of her face. I gasp in shock when I realise who it is.

She has scratches and cuts on her face and her eyes are red from crying. I look into her purple eyes, wait when did her eyes become purple? She looks so broken. I've never seen her like this, she's always joking and annoying everyone. Her eyes widen when she sees me, I sit on the floor and pull her into my chest careful not to hurt her. She feels so weak like she's going to break in half under my touch, I stand up with her in my arms and she doesn't fight back. We get into the queen jet and the doors close loudly making her flinch and hold onto me as if someone's going to take her, it breaks my heart knowing someone did this to her.

We arrive at Wakanda and she sits up from leaning on me, she then stands and I go to help. She puts her hand up and shakes her head not saying anything. The doors open and she limps out the plan with me following closely, "What happened... someone get a medic here" T'challa says and she falls forwards and goes out of consciousness.

Angel's PoV

We arrive at Wakanda and I sit up from leaning against Steve, I stand up and he rushes to help me. I stop him without talking because I haven't had water in a day maybe more so my throat is closing up. I limp out by myself so people don't make a big fuss over me. I start to sway "What happened... someone get a medic here" T'challa yells and I fall forwards slipping out of consciousness. I get picked up "come on stay with us" someone says and I look at the blurry blob that I think is Bucky. I smile slightly "No no come on stay awake... I need you to stay awake, I need yo-" I passed out before I heard what he said.

Bucky's PoV

Angel lands on the floor and slowly slips out of consciousness, I pick her up "quickly we need to get her help" T'challa says. I run to the medic room "come on stay with us" I say to her and she smiles slightly, "No no come on stay awake...I need you to stay awake, I need yo-" she goes limp before I finish. They take her off me and tell me to leave the room.

I look through the window "You can do it, come on you're strong" I say more to myself because I know she can't hear me. I feel a hand on my shoulder and turn to see Steve. The machine starts beeping loudly and people start to rush around, I look in the room frantically begging that she's ok. 'I don't want to lose you' I think to myself and a tear goes down my cheek, I quickly wipe my eyes before people could see. Steve just stands next to me looking in the window not saying anything. This crazy angel is one of us we can't lose her.

It's been a month now, angel is still in a coma and me and Steve visit her. I visit her everyday and Steve comes in every other day to check up. I've been here all day in this uncomfortable chair next to her bed, the door opens and Steve walks in. "Hey, you should go get a wash and some sleep. I'll stay with her" he says and I shake my head looking back at Angel.

Her hair is knotted from not being washed or brushed, the mud and blood on her face was cleaned by the doctors. She looked peaceful, not suffering from a nightmare or being tortured. I just want to see her laugh or smile, or when her eyes light up when she gets an idea or the fact that she's always eating muffins.

She doesn't wake up but I'll wait as long as it takes for her to wake. I stand up still holding her hand and kiss her head knowing she won't wake up.

Sorry this chapter is so short, I wanted to end it there. Cliffhanger Yayy, I'll shut up now.
