When Worlds Collide (An Umbrella Academy x Steve Rogers [Avengers] Fanfic)

Chapter 1

3rd Person POV

He felt his body being ripped apart and put back together again but he didn't feel any pain. Tony had designed their suits to take all the pain after all. With a soft fwoosh he landed safely on the sand. When returning the Tesseract, he stole one more Pim Particle. It was now time for him to tell the others.

"Bucky, Sam, Bruce, can you come here for a minute?"

Steve looked around at the boys- no, not boys. Men. He smiled softly at all of them, before he started on the speech he mentally prepared when he was off to find a safe, secluded space to travel back to 2023.

"Listen. When I returned the Tesseract, I also stole another Pim Particle. Now, before you all start yelling at me, I have my reasons. First of all, I want to see what my life would have been like if I had only been frozen for about twenty years rather than 70. There's still a lot of stuff technology wise that confuses me. I'm also going to save Bucky in this new timeline I've created. I also want to fight for people's rights alongside them. The civil rights movements and the Stonewall riots happened in the 60's, so I'm going to travel to 1963, see if I can prevent JFK from dying even though I wasn't here for it. Listen, I love you guys, and I know this sounds selfish but I'm doing it to cope with what's happened to me. I know we're superheroes, but I know we all have some sort of mental health issue going on from all the traumatic events we've gone through. I guess this is goodbye..." He trailed off, looking at the men that stood before him. They all looked at eachother, and nodded. Steve looked at them confused for about half of a second before he's tackled into a huge group hug. After about a minute, they let go.

"I'll miss having you around and going on jogs with you. I'm always on your left, Rogers." Sam told him, pointing to his heart and smiling softly.

"It'll be weird not having to explain technology to you anymore. Good luck out there buddy." Bruce said. Now it was Bucky's turn.

"Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone, I'll miss you Buck." Steve leaned in closer to Bucky's ear and whispered, "I love you, and when I save you in the 60's I'll marry you." Bucky teared up at hearing this. He pulled Steve into a tight hug.

"How can I do anything stupid if you're taking all the stupid with you?" Bucky laughed before whispering, "I love you too, forever and always. I count on you marrying me in this alternate timeline. I'll miss you until the day I die in this timeline." Bucky let go of Steve after about a minute. Steve walked back to the warp pad.

"Go have the future we deserved." Bucky looked at Steve with sad eyes.

"Don't forget to write!" Sam jokingly shouted.

"Okay, being transported to New York City, September 1st 1963" Bruce stated. Steve waved goodbye as he felt his body start ripping apart again. He closed his eyes and waited until the sensation stopped to open his eyes again. Upon opening his eyes, he sees a blue flash of light and a man falls through the hole, and then pins Steve against the wall, a knife to his throat.

"I can tell just from what you're wearing that you're from the future too. Let's have a chat shall we?"
