                 James Buchanan Barnes never thought that he would be getting a dog. His family didn't have the money to take care of any animal during the depression. Not with their family needing to be taken care of first. A dog just wasn't a good idea. Then he was a soldier in the second world war with his best friend being an American idol. Then, Hydra got a hold of him after he fell off the train. Over seventy years later, he managed to get out of Hydra after being brainwashed and used as the organizations own personal weapon. Get reunited with his best friend, and got the words out of his head with the help of some new friends. It's been two years since Bucky has been in Wakanda. Two years since Shuri was able to get the evil words out of his head. Two years since the reunion of the Avengers. Tony has forgiven Bucky. For the most point. But, forgiven him none the less.

So here he was. In a shelter with his best friend, Steve Rogers. Looking for a therapy dog after being told that it should help him by others. Help with his flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety. The list goes on unfortunately. Bucky was walking along the kennels, looking at each and every dog. Steve was near the door talking to the female kennel attendant letting Bucky have his space while he looked through the kennels. Bucky was about to move on to another kennel when when he spotted a multicolored dog laying on its right side on the concrete ground. Black, white, and golden. All those colors on one dog, which he had never seen before. Kneeling down to get a closer look, he noticed that the dog had three legs. It's left front leg was missing, only a jagged, stitched wound in its place. The dog opened its bright blue eyes and looked at him. It's ears perking towards him. Equally interested in him as Bucky was in the dog.

Bucky could hear Steve talking to the kennel attendant about the different dogs they had. But his mind was on the dog in front of him, in the chain link kennel. The eyes of the dog worried him. The lost look in it's eyes reminded him of his own. Eyes that have seen so much and held the horrors that they had seen, the blank stare. Hearing footsteps come towards him from his right side, Bucky looked up to see Steve looking from the dog and then back to him. Kneeling down beside Bucky, Steve looked at the dog his best friend was interested in. No wonder it was a unique coated dog. Bucky always liked the unique things in life. The unusual. Something you'll only see once in your life.

"You like her Buck? She has pretty eyes. Beautiful coat.", Steve could not say that the dog wasn't beautiful. Even with three legs, the dog was beautiful. The jagged wound that was left stood out, red and angry looking. Steve could understand why Bucky would be looking towards this specific dog. His best friend probably saw a little bit of himself in the dog.

The young kennel attendant came down to look at what dog they were interested in and instantly shook her head at which dog they were talking about. Popping her gum in her mouth, her arms crossed, and even had the look of pure uninterest at that specific dog. " That dog isn't for your friend. She has PTSD, anxiety, plus all the injuries. She has is going to take a lot to take care of her. She's been here four months and constantly rips open her stitches. Won't take her medication...." the young girl stopped short when she saw the looks of the two men in front of her.

Bucky was giving the deadliest glare in the record of the world, and for being the scariest thing that Hydra had ever created...It was not a good thing to have that glare aimed towards you. Steve even stood up from his kneeling position, standing with his arms crossed his chest. The audacity of that girl to tell them that basically the animal was a lost cause. Steve was the first to talk while Bucky was cursing in Russian under his breath.

" Can we have her file please? I think we would like to take a couple minutes alone to talk it over once we have the file.", no longer the sweet, kind, innocent Steve Rogers. Now, the Captain that was made in the army. The one person that you did what he told you to do, or else. The young girl rushed out and came back with the file, handing it to the blonde super soldier then walking out of the room. Giving them the privacy they wanted.
