Seven-year-old Aurora has spent most of her life in the foster care system, bouncing from home to home, leaving behind a trail of anger and broken furniture. She fights everyone - other kids, foster parents, even the social workers. But when she's placed for adoption, it's not with another ordinary family. S.H.I.E.L.D. has made their decision: Aurora is now the legal responsibility of Captain America himself. Neither of them wants this. Steve, forced into the situation by S.H.I.E.L.D., is furious about being saddled with a kid he never asked for. Aurora, convinced that no one ever truly stays, refuses to trust him - or anyone. Their first meeting ends in a screaming match, and things only go downhill from there. But as much as they push each other away, neither one is allowed to leave. And when Steve gets a visit from a friend from his past, stuck together, they'll have to figure out if family is something you're born into-or something you fight for.

In all her years of living, there are a lot of things Natasha Romanoff wishes she had done differently. Hell, surviving the Red Room might be one of them. This was supposed to be over, burnt to the ground, and Dreykov with it. She is supposed to be an Avenger, rebuilding her life and letting her 'family' build their Natasha-free own. That was until the Sokovia Accords. Until Natasha's long lost 'sister' disrupted her fugitive lifestyle to let her know the Budapest mission was a fail. Dreykov is still alive. The Red Room still stands, stronger than the Avengers as of now. And it's hers and Yelena's responsibility to take it down once and for all. Now, the remaining question is: where the hell is their little sister?

One thing Mazzy Stark has always found peculiar is how her scraped knees always seem to heal within a few measly seconds while the other kids have scabs over their knees for several days. Her dad always says it's medicine, but Mazzy isn't so sure about that. It isn't until Mazzy is faced with a familiar metal-armed man that she begins to realize that it isn't medicine that makes her the way she is; it is a little, red star and a man with a crooked smile. • ⚠️ This book has mature themes, like anything else you might see in a typical Marvel movie.⚠️ Updates set in Captain America: Civil War.

In the spring of 2014, HYDRA-occupied SHIELD is in full swing, working underground to power the monster that is the Winter Soldier. Following in his shadow is their latest creation. Immortal, obedient and a murder machine, the child known simply as 'The Faceless Girl' cleans up any loose threads the Winter Soldier may have missed. She is a ghost story inside of a ghost story. With the fall of SHIELD, however, The Winter Soldier and The Faceless Girl run from HYDRA. They are now defectors of everything they know. It is simply James and Isabell on the road, now. James and Isabell, and the many, many ghosts that haunt them.

James Barnes was sixteen years old when his baby sister came into the world, pink and wrinkly and screaming her little head off. And James? James was unimpressed. She was tiny-too tiny. Her hands were no bigger than his thumb, her head barely covered in a fuzz of dark hair. She cried constantly, made Ma exhausted, and stole all the attention in the apartment. And worse? She was completely useless. Couldn't walk, couldn't talk, couldn't even hold her own head up or go get groceries. He had brothers. Brothers he could roughhouse with and throw punches at. This? This little thing wasn't a sibling-she was a baby. And yet, despite all his grumbling, he still found himself staring at her when nobody was looking.

MATADOR ˗ˏˋ ✹ ˎˊ˗ EDEN was born in the cold- not just the snowbound Hydra base where she lives, but in the silence between screams, in the sterile space of loyalty and obedience. Eden had never known the world beyond orders and missions, praise and punishment. To her, Hydra was home. Being the good soldier is the only dream she was allowed to have. But dreams have cracks. With a soldier for a father she's never truly met and a voice in her head that never shuts up, Eden was beginning to see things- wrong things. Kindness. Doubt. Mercy. And when Eden and the Winter Soldier go on a mission where things aren't what they seemed, something in her began to splinter. She didn't know his name. She didn't know her past. But the truth was coming. [a marvel cinematic universe fanfiction.] [bucky father x childoc] pre-the winter soldier - ???

Special. The word means funny things to Gracie Rogers. Her dad was Special. She knows it from history books and old photographs and stories from Miss Carter. SHIELD is special too. So are lots of the people in it. Nat, Clint, Fury. They aren't special in the way her dad was special, but they're still super cool, as far as she's concerned. What she also knows is that she isn't special. Not one bit. There isn't anything that can change that. Still. Her dad's pretty great, though. And so's his friend. You know. The guy with the metal arm. Too bad she's supposed to be staying out of trouble.

Three years ago, Indy Sargent's mother vanished in the middle of the night, leaving her with no note and a whole lotta questions. Now, she lives up by herself in Hilltop, doing her best to keep out of trouble and not give in to the desperate ache inside of her. The ache that wonders, constant and bitter, why her mother didn't take her with her. Maggie took 𝘩𝘦𝘳 son. Why did Indy's mom just leave her behind? But when she meets Negan, the man nobody seems to want to talk about, the ache finally starts to fade a little. Despite what everyone says, Negan is kind. He wants to be her friend. After all, it must be lonely down there in his cell, with no one to talk to all day, and Indy knows what it's like to be lonely. But there is more to Negan than it seems. There's a reason he's locked away, out of the sunlight and the town, and that reason is much closer to Indy than she thinks.
