"We're not who you think we are. We're helping you."
"I don't care." She turned the gun from Shuri and pressed the barrel beneath her chin and fired.
To her, he was a ghost; to him, she was a stranger.
There were no more super soldiers. It was a well known fact. But when Bucky retrieves a woman in cryostasis in an abandoned Hydra facility, he begins to wonder otherwise. She has a Vibranium spine, her history with Howard Stark and an oddly vague couple decades she refuses to depict.
Kate Alden was a scientist, engineer, and the next protégé of the 1950s until HYDRA deemed her necessary for their work. Being forced into Hydra's game, she is tasked with a nearly impossible mission: creating the Winter Soldier.
After thirty years in cryostasis, the one person that Kate thought she'd never see again was the one who pulled her out. Bucky Barnes. The person she thought she'd loved. Except, he had no memory of her her existence. He had no idea that she'd brainwashed, tortured and manipulated him for decades. He'd changed, he was good, and he had absolutely no idea what she had done to him. And it had to stay that way.

An Unconventional Trio
⚠️Under 18, DNI⚠️ After the flaming dumpster fire that was SHIELD's collapse and the whole "surprise, Hydra was here the whole damn time!" debacle, one former agent slipped through the cracks like a pissed-off ghost in a leather jacket. She vanished from the grid, reputation scorched, trust obliterated, and purpose? Shattered. Enter Tony Stark. Because of course it was Tony. He found her somewhere between a breakdown and a bar fight, took one look at the smudged eyeliner, the sarcasm-drenched trauma, and the "bite me" attitude-and said, "Yeah, I can work with that." He brought her in, tucked her away in the shadows of the compound, and trained her like a secret weapon no one saw coming. Four years of quiet sharpening. Four years of sweat, rage, Red Bull, and a whole lot of therapy avoidance. And when he finally deemed her ready? He unleashed her like a feral raccoon with a vengeance complex. Gone was the clean-cut SHIELD poster girl. In her place: chaos incarnate. Combat boots, chipped black nail polish, hair that looked like it had been in a fistfight with a Lisa Frank folder, and a mouth that could out-swear a sailor with road rage. The Avengers? They didn't know what to do with her. And yet. Two of the most emotionally constipated, chaos-flavored men on the roster found themselves utterly, stupidly hooked. Bucky Barnes tried to pretend he wasn't watching her-like she didn't short-circuit something in his brain every time she threw a knife with that smug little grin. But he noticed everything. Then there was Loki. The God of Trouble himself. She was unpredictable. Unrefined. Unapologetically alive. So now? It's a quiet war between two broody bastards who've never properly communicated a feeling in their lives, and the chaos gremlin woman who thinks emotional vulnerability is worse than waterboarding. There's blood. Banter. Probably some light property damage. Spoiler: it's not going well. But it's going loud.

But when she "Blipped," and returned, all who once controlled her were gone. So she fled to New York City where she could hide until she was certain Israel wasn't coming after her. Hide from everyone, even her friendly old, apartment landlady and especially the ex-military guy next door. Her strength faded. The drug that numbed her emotions faded. But something else took its place. Now, desperation drives her out of hiding, right to the soldier who is more like her than she initially thought. Shamara joins Bucky and Sam in their quest to find the source of the new supersoldiers, hoping to find a cure along the way. Yet with each passing day, she longs for more than survival. Nothing is certain. Shamara and Bucky know it better than most people. But are they willing to be scared and uncertain and still choose each other? (Set through the events of TFATWS.

The Girl Beyond The Walls.
"If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself". ~She is a beautiful, unsettling paradox. Her face is soft and symmetrical, with full lips and wide eyes that hint at a forgotten innocence. Yet her smile never quite reaches them, a phantom expression that seems rehearsed and out of place. There is a deep, unsettling stillness about her, as if she is a doll waiting for someone to wind her up. She moves with a lethal elegance, a dancer's grace that she weaponizes with practiced ease. Her voice, when she speaks, is unnaturally calm and even, devoid of the inflection that signals emotion. She is a woman of contradictions-a gentle face, a killer's soul; a still body, a restless mind; a blank slate on the surface, but a fractured, terrifying mosaic just below. ~He is no longer the Winter Soldier, but he isn't Bucky, either. He exists in a quiet, haunted space between two lives, the playful friend from Brooklyn now just a fading memory. The trauma of seventy years of manipulation is etched in his weary eyes and the instinctive way he still handles his metal arm. Though free, he remains lost, a ghost haunting his own life, constantly battling fragments of his violent past while clinging to the fragile trust he has in Steve. ~Saved by the Avengers, the girl was a weapon without a master, lashing out at her rescuers. Steve saw a ghost of Bucky in her eyes and kept his distance, his compassion warring with his distrust. For weeks, their relationship was a minefield of animosity, her resentment fueled by his cautious pity. The thaw was slow, starting during training and quiet moments of shared trauma. Eventually, their hatred softened into a deep, unspoken understanding, two broken soldiers finding a fragile kind of healing together.

𝒇𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒔| 18+ {Bucky Barnes}
{Formerly named Țuică} If you asked Dr. Aurora "Rori" Harris whether she was your average psychologist, she'd probably laugh and say, "Absolutely yes!" She worked long hours, carried her patients' burdens home with her most nights, and went above and beyond for anyone she cared about. That was just who she was. But the truth? Rori was far from average. She had a particular set of gifts-skills that even she didn't fully understand. Skills that would make her indispensable when Sam Wilson and Captain America came calling, asking her to track down Steve's childhood friend, James Buchanan Barnes... aka Bucky, the Winter Soldier. She can't say no. She wants to help. But as she dives deeper into the shadows of Bucky's fractured world, one question hangs over her: Will she keep her promise to Steve and Sam? Will she reveal Bucky's location, or will she find herself dangerously drawn to the broken man behind the legend?Complete

Supernova: When fire meets winter | Bucky Barnes
Enemies. Survivors. Something else entirely. She was supposed to be a ghost forgotten experiment of Hydra, buried and erased. Instead, she came back with fire in her veins, a vibranium chip in her neck, and the memory of the man who stares at her like she should mean something. Now she's part of a reformed Avengers unit under S.W.O.R.D., forced to work alongside the one person she can't stand: Bucky Barnes. The Winter Soldier. He's cold, controlled and doesn't remember her. She's furious, unstable, and dangerous to trust. And yet, every glance feels like a memory he can't grasp. Every fight between them burns too close. HQ is already placing bets on whether they'll kill each other or something else entirely. But when a lead surfaces that could unravel their pasts and expose the lies Hydra buried with them Mafer and Bucky must work together. Even if it means confronting the truth neither of them are ready for. Because sometimes fire remembers winter. And sometimes enemies burn the brightest together.
I need you and you know it
"I almost forgot the way you feel." "I'm more than willing to remind you... every night." You and Bucky met when you were just kids, two souls caught in the chaos of a world at war. Even then, beneath the uniforms and duty, something deeper was growing. Something neither time nor silence could truly bury. You are Howard Stark's twin sister, a genius in your own right. But shortly after the war, an experiment at Stark Industries went terribly wrong. A biological weapon nearly took your life, until Howard created a serum to save you. One that didn't just stop the disease... It stopped you. Now, you're almost 97, but the world sees a woman of 26. A ghost out of time. A secret buried beneath decades of classified files and faded memories. And Bucky Barnes, the man you once loved, the one who never truly left your heart, is back. It's time to find out if the flame you buried in the '40s still burns... Or if the years have changed you both so much, that the past is too far gone to rewrite.

Empress ||Bucky Barnes||
He was trying to make peace with his past. So was she. James Barnes and Anastasia Morozov were similar in many ways, and possibly the only people on the planet who understood each other. Both having a past with HYDRA and experiments, being used and brainwashed and broken. It was no real surprise that they first met on the battlefield in Wakanda, or that the first time they spoke was after she broke into his apartment to avoid knocking on the door. They were friends by the time they joined the fight against the Flag Smashers, but it's hard to tell in between the fighting if they can become more. Especially since Sam won't seem to leave them alone. Three is, after all, a crowd. ||Bucky fan-fic|| ||TFATWS|| ||mature themes||Complete
The Winter She Made
They were forged in war and fractured by the same hands that made them monsters. Katherine Zola was born with a name she never chose, the daughter of HYDRA's most notorious architect. A child genius, a living weapon, and the program's most effective ghost. Her mission logs were sealed in blood and buried in silence-until one day, she was given a name: Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes. She didn't know why HYDRA wanted him-not at first. Only that she was ordered to track, weaken, and retrieve him. That her mission began before his fall from the train in 1945. That she was the reason he ended up in enemy hands. And she did it. She followed orders. She delivered him. What she didn't expect was to care. What she didn't plan for was falling in love with the man she helped damn. Bucky Barnes thought he was just another casualty of HYDRA-another soldier stripped of self and turned into a weapon. But the truth was darker. His capture wasn't chance. It was chosen. He was targeted by a girl with smoke in her lungs, ghosts in her eyes, and a lie tucked in her smile. A girl who became everything to him, right before she disappeared. Decades later, they stand on opposite sides of the same war-both survivors of mind control, both drowning in guilt. And both still tethered to each other by a past neither can outrun. Because she was his mission long before he ever became hers. -Set during Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, Thunderbolts -long book, buckle up for the ride. #1 in thewintersoldier 9.24.25 #1 in original character 9.23.25 #1 in natasharomanoff 12.28.25 #1 in avengersfanfiction 1.6.26 #2 in jamesbarnes 9.24.25 #3 in samwilson 10.9.25 #3 in marvel 12.30.25 #6 in wintersoldier 9.24.25Complete
Letting Go | Bucky Barnes
Y/N and Bucky's time in Wakanda was needed and helpful after the previous months of chaos. After three months away, they decide it's time to return to the Compound and get back to normal. Unfortunately for the Avengers, 'normal' means danger; something Y/N is still learning to deal with. When Hydra reappears and begins to wreak havoc on a global scale, Y/N takes on her role as an Avenger, dealing with feelings of guilt, responsibility, and fear for her newfound family, all while trying to find her place in the world of superheroes and corruption. *** "This is the first time in over a year that I feel like I can really see the world.

The Winter Soldier and The Red Angel
Bucky's POV: Nat peeked, barely dodged another bullet. "I think that's The Red Angel," she muttered, sliding into position beside me. I glanced at her. Red Angel? "Didn't think she was real," Nat continued. "Thought she was just a myth. Supposedly trained in the Red Room. Or maybe Hydra got their hands on her first - no one really knows. There's talk she was an experiment. The kind that leaves a trail." She shifted again, moved to another position as the others kept the woman busy. I followed, covered her flank. Then Nat said the part that stuck with me: "Thing is... she should be old by now. But the way she moves? Doesn't look like any grandma I've ever seen." (...) Nat: "What the hell was that?" I didn't answer. Couldn't. I was staring into the smoke, my fists clenched. My breath shallow. "Someone I might've known," I finally said, voice low. "Someone they might've used me to create."

Holding On | Bucky Barnes
It's been two months since Y/N returned to the Compound, but despite her best efforts, she can't seem to escape her trauma. Nightmares haunt her at night, while memories stalk her during the day; a never-ending cycle that she hopes she can smile her way through. She finds distraction in her busy schedule and a few quiet moments in-between, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't forget. And now that the world knows who she is, she likely never will. Some see her as a hero, others see her as a weapon. Y/N doesn't know which to believe-especially with the little control she feels she has over her life anymore. The journey to recovery is never easy, but Y/N thinks it may be impossible. *** [Part 2 of Reaching Out] [Bucky Barnes X Reader] [1st person POV] MAIN THEMES FROM PART 1: Y/N with powers, moving in with the Avengers, Bucky+Y/N romance, quick-burn, drama and trauma (of course), fluff on fluff on fluff.
