broken (2)

spencer reid x reader

genre: angst

tw: mentions of murder and kidnapping, crying, comments alluding to body dysmorphia or ed.. I think that's it! let me know if you want me to add any other warnings.

word count: 1.2k

summary: in which a broken girl tells her story!

a/n: thank you guys for being here! it was just my birthday and we hit another milestone! I love you guys so much and I am so thankful for you guys! thank you @haileyyturner and @obliviousreid for betaing this chapter

JJ waits silently, the nerves are evident on her face. She explains that someone is killing families; specifically kidnapping, torturing, and inevitably murdering them in St. Petersburg, Florida. Each family is kept over a two week period. Then after that period of time, the unsub would move onto a different family. So far, the unsub has killed two families over the course of the month. The local law enforcement called the BAU because the unsub clearly has a signature.

“What’s their signature?” Hotch asks. JJ looks at Hotch, then looking back at the screen to change the pictures. These pictures reveal that each parent had a four mark etched into their chest. The unsub was choosing families of four; one father, one mother, a daughter, and a son.

“Why would the unsub mark them like this? It has to mean something, but what does it mean?” Y/n questions.

“In Chinese culture, the number four is thought to be unlucky, but it also means death. It is more commonly known as a symbol of death, it just comes from that culture, but if our unsub is from that background, the four could be representing unluckiness.” Spencer rambles, quick to speak his mind.

“But why the mother and father?” Derek asks, looking puzzled as he continues talking. “What makes marking them significant and not the children?”

“Maybe he sees the children as innocent... However, then it’s a matter of what the parents did to deserve this in the unsub’s eyes.” says Y/n. “Maybe cheating or not taking care of their kids properly?”

“Garcia, look into the families and more into the murders. Also, check CPS reports, ethnic backgrounds, and marriage counsel records. Otherwise, wheels up in thirty.” Hotch said with his usual stern face. Hotch rushes to get his papers together and leaves the room.

------------

“Coffee, Spence?” you ask, trying to not seem out of it. You go out of your way to smile a little and change your body language, so he won’t notice.

“Sure, Y/n. All the sugar in the world,” Spencer laughs. Then he notices something, your eyes look like you haven’t slept in days and your skin has an ashen, dull look to it. Spencer looks away quickly, not wanting to make it obvious, but it was too late.

“Spencer, why are you looking at me like that? Do I look bad or something?” you blurt out. The fear is always present in the back of your mind. ‘You can’t let him know’ you thought.

“No! No, you look fine.” Spencer says, trying not to lie to you.

And you know that Spencer is lying because you can hardly take a look at yourself. All the mirrors in your house are covered with black garbage bags. You're afraid of what you’ve become to the point where you can’t see yourself, because all you see is disappointment. The only mirror not covered is the bathroom even though it’s where your most insecure moments happen. You have to see yourself before work, that’s the only reason it isn’t covered. ‘If you can’t look at yourself, how can you expect others to?.’ is a thought that goes through your head frequently.

“Thanks Spence, here’s your coffee.” you say trying to ignore the thoughts running through your head. You walk away before Spencer can respond and you know that it's a risk, you just need a few minutes before the team leaves.

You make your way to the bathroom swiftly trying to keep it all in, but you couldn’t. Luckily the rest of the team was in the bullpen getting ready, so your coworkers seeing you wasn’t a problem. You opened the door and walked in, the mirrors on the wall taunting you. When you walk to the mirror, you see the mess on your face; your fatigue is evident, mascara is running down your face, and your face is puffy. It was like looking at a complete stranger, you didn’t even recognize yourself. Your eyes stare back at you and another set of tears fall down your face as you whisper, “Get yourself together.” You wash your face and return to the bullpen, awaiting for the team to leave.

------------

Y/n left in such a rush. ‘I wanted to say that she looks beautiful no matter what, but she just left. There has to be something wrong. She wouldn’t do anything like this months ago, so what changed?’ Spencer thought. He walks back to the bullpen conflicted about if he should say anything. ‘I should wait. Maybe if I find out more, it will be easier to confront her based on her behavior. But is it too intrusive?’ Walking to his desk and picking up his go bag, he notices that Y/n is back.

Spencer didn’t want to ask, but he could never be too sure. He walks over to Y/n and says, “You okay?” with a slight pout.

“I’m fine. My eyes were just really itchy and I needed to put in some eye drops.” Y/n says, fiddling with her hands.

‘She’s nervous’ Spencer thought to himself. “Oh, it’s okay.” Spencer says.

“Yeah, allergies are shitty.” Y/n laughed.

“Come on lovebirds, we gotta go!” Derek interrupts. Spencer and Y/n are clearly flustered and head to the jet.

------------

The plane ride is something, there’s a lot of turbulence and is overall really rocky, so no one is sleeping. Hotch goes about his day in the corner, looking at case files and probably putting a theory together about the unsub. JJ and Emily are laughing and chatting about things in their lives. Derek is in his usual spot with Spencer bickering about something, but I’m alone. Sitting in my corner of the jet, silently observing my surroundings. A big rule for the team is not to profile each other, because we're coworkers, and most importantly, family. I’m not profiling anyone, I’m just sitting there in silence because there isn’t much to think about. Except the fact that I have to be more careful around Spencer; he knows something is up and I hope he doesn’t profile me.

When we landed in St Petersburg, we rushed to the police station. We were there for hours, getting no sleep as we worked the case. Everyone was exhausted, so Hotch told us to go to our hotel rooms, hoping the team would come back tomorrow morning with a clear head. We hadn’t figured out much about the unsub yet. Except, that the unsub was burning the “4s” into the mothers and fathers. The car ride to the hotel was silent, probably due to frustration. When we got there, Hotch pulled us aside and told us this.

“So, there aren't enough rooms... We have to double up.” He said, but not with his usual straight-forward stern voice.

“Well, I think we all know Rossi is on his own…” said Derek.

“Yeah, out of respect I hope.” Rossi joked.

“Haha, yeah of course. Okay, so Hotch and I, Emily and JJ, Y/n and Reid? That works right?” Derek said.

“Yeah, totally!” said JJ. I had no idea how she managed to have enthusiasm with no sleep.

“Well Y/n, I guess you're with me.” said Spencer hesitantly, trying to smile a little bit.

‘Shit.’

Metamy idea...

Amy Rose has been ‘kidnapped’ by Eggman, but Metal Sonic has been tasked to watch after her.

After being instructed not to injury her, but to make sure she didn’t break loose, Amy can’t stand the silence from him and instead, fills the room with her own voice.

After admitting she wants to get to the bottom of things with Sonic, she asks Metal Sonic to mimic him, “That way, if he tries to stop me, I can plan for it ahead.” she nodded, confident this would work.

“Okay! Before I start, you have to look the part!”

Metal Sonic... looks himself over... then looks back up at her.

He spreads his arms out and tilts his head down.

“R-right.” Amy awkwardly scratches the side of her head, “I-I mean, not in appearance in alone! You have to act like him!” She bounces over and begins to examine his arm. “Umm... here.” she moves him into a position, but he yanks his arm away. “Well, not all of Sonic is just his looks! You have to act like he would! Try... Cocky! Handsome and knows it, but also thinks I’m easy when it comes to getting me back.” she rocked a little from side to side, putting her hands behind her back as Metal Sonic thought a moment, then laid slightly against a metal contraption and put his hand under his chin, legs up and crossed.

“Hmm... Less feminine, more ‘You know you can’t leave me that easily, Amy’.”

He readjusted himself after a moment of his eyes looking up at the ceiling, pondering... then simply adjusted his legs to being mostly down and twisting the wrist so he was holding his head up by the side of his hand instead of under it.

“Hmm... Something’s still-”

He then lowered his eyelids.

“Perfect!” She cheered, “Ehem, okay, I’ll start now.” She adjusted her dress, then started to pace around, “Sonic! I have to know!” she flung herself back to facing Metal Sonic as he continued to watch her... closely... “Either you promise that you’ll date me in the future, or you tell me if we are right now!” she stomped her foot down.

“...Too much?”

Metal Sonic tilted his head.

“Yeah, I shouldn’t make it seem like an ultimatum.” she sighed heavily, “Ohhh..!!! How do girls do this!? Tempting a man to make a move but also not actually planning on stepping away? Seems so manipulative... but the movies make it look like it works? ‘You marry me or else!’ sort of a thing?” she continued to be off in her own world but Metal Sonic just readjusted his head... watching her every movement as his eyes naturally calculated each muscle bearing weight, the radius of her slight, girlish turns, and even the distance between her finger hanging by her mouth as it tapped it a few times in her vocal thought processes.

“W-well...” She shook her head, “If I did say something like that to Sonic.. you should still act the way you think he’d respond. You do know a lot about Sonic, right?” she tilted her head to him, and his graphs of her figure suddenly stopped and he nodded only once, looking a bit surprised she noticed his existence again.

“Hehe! Great!” she bounded over, and for a moment, her eyes and his were the closest they’ve ever been without any hostility or need to defend one’s self...

“Ehem,” she cleared her throat again, “Sonic! If you don’t love me, I’m leaving..!” she closed her eyes and declared that with a pointer finger hanging straight up, “B-but not really.” she stuck her tongue out, “I just need you to fight for me...” She hugged her arm on the side... still acting her age as suddenly Metal Sonic shot up from his position, almost jetting himself across their distance.

“W-woah!” She was shocked how fast he was in front of her, but even more at the speed in which he brought her to the ground.

“OFFPH!” she slammed a little too hard against it, Metal Sonic not really knowing the term ‘gentle’ as it were.

“I-I don’t think he’d be that direct...” she slightly mused with a hurt smile, before... looking up at his eyes again...

“M... Metal?” he continued to stare down at her... slowly bringing his head closer to her own.

“A-ah-ahh-haha! Very funny!” she closed her eyes with a sheepish grin. “B-bu-but-but Sonic’s not as forceful as this-!”

He pinned the sides of his hands to her waist, causing her to be unable to move or the sharpness of them would pierce flesh...

She heard her dress’s fabric against them and the slight tearing if she wiggled too much.

She gulped, opening her eyes again and looking in his merciless eyes...

“I... Really don’t think this is what Sonic would... d-d-do...” she was, for some unknown reason, turning breathy...

He made some robotic sound she couldn’t understand...

“W-what?” she tilted her head slightly, and as he bent down further... forcing her to squish the back of her head down even more against the paneled floor,...

Eggman’s doors swung open and she shoved Metal Sonic so hard that he flew to jam himself against the ceiling.

“Epp!” she cried out, getting up as Eggman walked in with two ice-cream smoothies.

“Hello! Just stopped by to make sure you were comfortable before Sonic’s ultimate doom.” he seemed happy-go-lucky, but looked around the room for a second. “Wait, where’s-?”

Metal Sonic’s hide creaked as it was torn from the indent on the ceiling he was stuck in before flopping loudly to the ground.

“Oh, there you are.” Eggman stepped over him, then leaned down to see him, “Hmm... not liking the boredom of being a babysitter, eh? My apologies, but you’ll have your fill of fun once Sonic gets here.” He seemed to mostly ignore him and hand Amy the smoothie. “Vanilla.” He stated, and slurped his loudly through his straw.

“Strange robot, isn’t he?” Eggman seemed to be creating small talk but Amy barely could keep her grip on the smoothie, still startled by Metal Sonic’s actions.

“Y-yeah...” she looked back at him, just laying on the floor... “Strange...” he seemed lifeless, but with a flick of his fingers, she knew he was listening. “He-...”

“-Definitely fights to the bitter end for what he wants.”

Tribal Dance Battle - THERE IS A LOBSTER

Synopsis: Lime finds a lobster and fights it

Word count: 705

Notes: Kinda connected to Why Is There A Snake. Also has two endings

Lime was standing on top of the wall, guarding the pinball machine from intruders. "Red, there's a lobster climbing onto our statue! We have to protect it!"

"Haha katana go weeee!" Red exclaims as he spins the blade above his head.

"Ugh!" Her frustration showed. "Ever since you found that weird katana, you've been acting like a child who just got a toy lightsaber! Seriously, you aren't even holding it right," Lime facepalms.

"You're just jealous of the fact that I have a cool katana, and you don't," Red replies.

"That's a pretty bold claim, considering..." an energy starts form on her palm.

That made him drop the weapon. "Hey hey, no need for violence! Look, if you want me to come, maybe you should tell me who Ubi is."

"Fine, I'll go fight the lobster myself!" she huffs.

"Do you seriously want to keep the secret that much?"

First Ending

"Hey, I got dinner!"

"Oh, the lobster-" Red stops, seeing a human-sized lobster with jet black hair wearing a leather jacket, his arms tied up to his body with a rope.

"What the hell, Lime?!"

"Her name is Lime?" the lobster laughs.

"The one who's gonna get boiled pretty soon probably shouldn't utter a single word besides "Oh, let me go, powerful woman! Please do not eat me!"" the woman imitates him in a dramatic way.

Red attempts to untie the lobster, but Lime turns the lobster away from him. "What are you doing?! Are you trying to free him?!"

"Yes?! He's a talking lobster, he has a mind! We can't just kill him, it would be like cannibalism!" the man tries again.

"You're just jealous I'm the one who caught it. And now I'm not gonna share. I mean I wasn't planning on sharing anyway but-"

"Hey, could you not talk over me?" the lobster finally says something after the argument. "I've got a girlfriend home, and I think she would prefer me there."

"See, he has someone waiting for him! We can't just kill him and have someone wonder where he's gone!"

"Also I think you forgot one thing," his hand goes up and cuts the rope off. "I have pincers." After saying that, the black haired lobster runs off and gets out of the machine.

"Look what you did! Now no one gets to eat!"

"Girl, no!"

Second Ending

"Soo...."

"Why did you kidnap me?"

"Look, you suddenly jumped on me, and during the fight, you kept saying you were gonna win and that you were gonna eat me after it. I'd rather not be eaten," the Rock Lobster explains. "Also, I didn't kidnap you, I just tied you up. Big difference."

"Fine, then I will-" Lime tries to use her powers, but can't seem to find the energy to do it. "Red will save me."

"I'm sure whoever that is will do so. Well goodbye, not gonna miss you!"

Meanwhile...

Red had danced a couple times with his katana, but as he was about to do it for the sixth time, he felt something was amiss.

"Lime's been gone for an awfully long time...Maybe I should check on her. She said the lobster was headed for the statue, right?"

He climbs down their home and goes to the center of the forest it was in.

"The fact we live in a forest makes the pinball machine thought even weirder..."

Just as he finishes saying that sentence to himself, he finds the statue wet, all covered by water with the controller boulders being changed into pincers. Lying on the statue, he finds Lime tied up.

He immediately cut the rope with his katana. "What happened?"

"That lobster son of a-wait I can't say that."

"You can't say what? Why are you tied up?"

"Well, while we were fighting, I threatened to boil him alive, and he did not like that apparently."

"Fair enough, but how did a lobster tie you up?"

"He was human-sized!"

"What."

"You should've seen him, he was wearing a leather jacket! And even had black hair!"

"I..think that may have been a human pretending to be a lobster."

"No, I don't think so. His exoskeleton was way too realistic!"

"Yeah yeah, whatever let's just go home."

"You gotta believe me!"

609-610: "Luffy Dies from Exposure?! The Spine Chilling Snow Woman Monet" and "Fists Collide! a Battle of the Two Vice Admirals!"

Surrounded by trash, unsure of location or direction. Too real, Luffy. Too real.

I feel like a broken record at the moment but Punk Hazard really is delivering.

Across 609 and 610, we had Law vs Vergo with a surprise interruption by Smoker. Caesar was the subject of unexpected character development. Even Luffy vs Monet had a twist, with Luffy falling into a trash compactor and meeting a tiny talking dragon.

I bet that’s Foxfire’s son. The little dragon had a kid’s voice.

I’m just glad the big dragon the Strawhats roasted wasn’t Momonosuke (@mrkashkiet, I am looking at you sternly. xD)

Law Just Cannot Quit Smoking

And does not want to.

The action picked up with Vergo hoofing it to the SAD Room. Speed lines ahoy!

Inside, Law slowly drew his sword in front of a vast tank of SAD Gas. Not sure what he was planning to do, but let’s not dwell on it, in case his plan was literally explosive.

Vergo appeared at the door. “I feel like my hand has been bitten by my own dog. This is too much even for a mischievous child. You were always too smart for your own good. People like you tend to die young.”

You know, I’m not keen on stoic villain types but I’ve got to admit that Vergo has some killer lines.

“It would be easiest to crush your heart but I won’t do that. I’ll torment you slowly as I please and warp your smart ass face with fear.”

Like I said, good lines.

He wailed on Law with grim purpose to the point I found myself shouting, “Come on, Law! ROOM YOURSELF OUT OF THERE!” Law was not having a fun time. (Dare I say, he was SAD?)

But his instinct for shit-talking was irrepressible. “Are you guys frustrated because your scheme is coming crashing down? Is this thing that important to you?”

Well, yeah... If Caesar is *the only person* who can make whatever it is that Doflamingo wants, then SAD must be profitable. Profits before pals seems to be Doflamingo’s modus operandi, but I don’t get the feeling Law is all that surprised Vergo is trying to kill him.

Law did fight back. There was an attempt. He tried to Room his heart back. But Vergo is fast and snatched Law’s heart from the air.

The worst thing, though? Vergo punched Law so hard he lost his hat. That is not cool. It must have riled Law enough for him to try his (awesome) Counter Shock attack. It was big, flashy and high voltage, but it only left Vergo lightly toasted.

Vergo must have decided to kill Law then because he said, “I have a message from Joker. He said, ‘What a shame.’”

Law was weirdly zen about the whole situation. “Oh, well. It didn’t work. I was pretty sure I could take my heart back from Caesar, but I didn’t expect you here, Vergo.”

The lack of -san honorific was the last straw for Vergo. He squeezed Law’s heart like a stress ball. Toei’s red filter descended. Soul-shredding pain was experienced. Law screamed a lot. As you would if your heart was being squeezed by a maniac.

Then, a shaft of light descended from the vaulted heavens.

Except not really because it was Smoker.

It’s almost the same thing.

Vergo was typically cool about the interruption. “I’m in the middle of something. Does it have to be now, Vice-Admiral Smoker?”

And I did a backflip. Yes. Excellent interruption. Great timing, Smoker! Now stop being so fixated on the Big Tanks That Go “Blort” and execute your glorious revenge!

Really, now I think about it, Vergo is almost as bad as Caesar. When Smoker called Vergo out on his deceit and told him not to tell the G5 Men as he was a father figure to them, Vergo said, “Don’t tell me you actually care about those guys? I’m a base commander. I can do whatever I want to my no-good subordinates.” Another one who treats other people as disposable pawns.

Unsurprisingly, Smoker and Vergo came to blows. Smoker seems to be having more luck than Law, but then Vergo does not have Smoker’s heart in a box. What I’d like to happen is Smoker retrieving Law’s heart and they tag-team Vergo into oblivion.

That sounded wrong. But you get what I mean.

Star Wars Episode IV: A New Rubbery Hope

How did Luffy end up in the Death Star’s trash compactor?

His battle with a bird woman from Hoth went south. Literally.

And I cannot believe I am about to say this, but I kind of wish Luffy’s fight with Monet was a little bit longer. Her powers are great. Her self-awareness and cunning are too.

She maintained those ten layer kamakura walls without breaking a sweat. When Luffy smashed one layer, she wrapped another around her frozen prison without missing a beat. Luffy knew she was stalling for time and said he’d just break every layer quicker than she could replace them.

“I bet,” she said. Then swept up behind Luffy and, in an oddly flirty manner, whispered in his ear, “I don’t think I’ll win if I fight you, but the strongest isn’t always the winner in a fight.”

Then she grabbed him and wrapped him, literally, in winter’s embrace.

That hypothermia power was quite cool (no pun intended). Paired with those desolate, snowy vistas and her eerily calm voice urging Luffy to let go, to sleep, relax and let it be, Monet’s Devil Fruit seems pretty strong to me.

But just as Luffy was about to pass out, Zoro’s voice - the very warning he yelled at Luffy a couple of episodes ago - cut through the darkness. “THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE NEW WORLD!”

I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of the blue filtered haki moments. When he sprang up and let loose that Jet Spear attack, I cheered.

Then he fell through the floor into a garbage chute and I laughed.

It was cool, though. He’s rubber. He’d bounce. And sure enough, it wasn’t long before he was raking through broken gadgets for food. At which point a tiny dragon spoke to him and that is where the story ended.

I am now 75% sure that tiny dragon is Momonosuke. It had a kid’s voice. Probably should be a higher percentage than that but I like to hedge my bets, haha.

Chopper Looks Like Every Harried Substitute Teacher Ever

While Luffy was readjusting to life in a trash compactor with a small talking dragon, Monet flapped away to tick off another box on the never ending to do list: securing the Addicted Experiment Kiddies.

Said kiddies were knocking lumps out of Chopper with their ferocious addict strength. He could not restrain them without hurting them. He tried to convince them not to eat the candy. “I know it’s hard but you have to endure it!”

The thing is, Chopper was dealing with a double helping of trouble here. Not only are they kids, who are naturally more self-centred due to their developing brains. They are also addicts who are so far down the rabbit hole of whatever drug Caesar was peddling they’ll do anything for a fix.

When Chopper’s rumble ball wore off, the kids trampled him and thundered straight for the Biscuit Room, where Mocha was waiting alone.

Luckily, he was picked up by Nami, Zoro, Usopp, Robin, Brook and Foxfire. (Do not remember Brownbeard hanging around. Did he leave or did he just not have any lines?)

Robin tried to restrain the kids. That was interesting for two reasons: one, I didn’t know Robin could feel damage sustained by her extra hands, and two, she asked Usopp and Brook to try and find a pair of Sea Prism Stone cuffs because Luffy had asked her to. (I bet his plan is to cuff Caesar!)

The kids charged Mocha, who tried to tell them the candy was evil! Then Monet whirled into the room on a frosty zephyr. (The best part of this entrance was when Usopp shouted: “I TOLD YOU THERE WAS A BIRD WOMAN!” He was finally vindicated.)

Yay, thought Mocha. It’s Monet-san. She’s lovely!

Nooooope. Monet told her, in a sweet, ever-so-reasonable voice that it wasn’t nice to keep all the candy for herself. Mocha should share it with the others, like always. Mocha’s little face when she sensed betrayal was just heart-wrenching. “Why?” she whispered.

Because Monet is a nasty piece of work just like Caesar? Just a thought.

Not sure what’s going to happen here. There are a *lot* of Strawhats in the room, so I’m guessing Monet will be defeated by them. Then they’ll push through, deliver the cuffs and - BAM - we have one angry, kidnapped scientist.

Sanji Acquires Unexpected Fans

This was a short scene but the fact that Sanji has a cadre of devoted fans in the G5 is hilarious. Yeah, he claims he doesn’t want their approval. And he probably doesn’t.

But Sanji cannot stop himself running back to save the poor saps who can be saved.

This is the Sanji I like: surly on the outside with a golden heart on the inside. More, please!

And the Academy Award for Best Actor goes to . . .

CAESAR CLOWN!

Seriously.

The yarns this guy can spin could crush the GDP of a small textile-dependent country.

Caesar should run for office somewhere. Then he could appoint himself head of the science department.

For that is exactly what has been bugging him for years, it seems. He wants Vegapunk’s job.

Well... maybe not the job. (He’s getting by just fine thanks to pirates. A Government job would ruin that). It’s the fame and kudos. That’s what he’s after.

Plus he has a weird goal: to achieve world peace by obliterating all sources of conflict - collateral damage be damned. Unless he’s lying about that. Given his oscar-winning performance, that would not surprise me.

The action picked up with Caesar caesaring through a pipe and landing outside the Secret Room (I laughed when I realised everyone on Punk Hazard literally calls it the Secret Room).

He was bitching about having to enter the room because it was Vegapunk’s old office. Still, he claimed it was the only place where he could “pull it off”. (I am unsure why he had to go to Vegapunk’s old office just to close some doors, but I’ll chalk it up to plot and say no more.)

He promised to make Luffy, the Strawhats, G5 and Trafalgar Law pay for ruining his plan. It was all their fault! The experiment could have been a great show - everything perfect and beautiful and befitting of the world’s greatest scientist (Vegapunk says hi!) But they screwed it up. He couldn’t let the Strawhats do as they liked. They’d pushed it a little too far and he has Joker on his back now.

He ordered a minion to close the gates to Buildings C and D. This would lure all survivors into one narrow room. His plan? Trap them in the bottleneck and pump the room full of his poison gas through the air vents. He would broadcast it as a snuff movie for the brokers. That would show them what he was really made of!

But the minions hang on his every word and they caught one small discrepancy.

“Um... did you say that *you* had created the poison gas, Master?”

Caesar’s haughty reply was, “Yes, I did.”

“But it’s like Vegapunk’s gas. It freaks us out.” Understandably, the minions probably have ptsd from four years ago.

The moment when Caesar realised he’d let his ego run away with him and opened his big mouth was glorious. How could he spin this? How? The animators did a great job here. You could see the evil, conniving cogs turning in his mind.

Then he broke out his Oscar winning performance.

“This is . . . an avenging battle of science. My people! That day, I tried to stop the mad scientist, Vegapunk. No! If such a weapon exploded, what would happen to the people on the island?” Caesar even threw in a melodramatic “YAMEROOOOO, VEGAPUNK!” for some extra emotional sparkle.

“But the accident happened. And he still lords if over us as the head of the science department of the Marines. and he’s considered the world’s greatest scientist. I cannot tolerate it! He’s the cruel man who hurt you all! Do you think it’s right that people still call him the number one scientist? That’s why I want to prove them all wrong. I didn’t want to make a weapon of mass destruction! But I want to show them that there is a greater scientist here. That I am the greatest scientist in the world! When the Marines acknowledge it and when I become head of the science department, my dream will come true. I can use my scientific knowledge to bring peace to the world!”

I honestly had to stop myself giving Caesar a standing ovation. What a performance that was.

You know, it’s weird. Every lie Caesar told there has a basis in truth. That’s the most dangerous liar right there because the lies they tell are more believable. Does the Gas-Gas Fruit confer gaslighting powers too? Because Caesar is a hellishly efficient manipulator.

And while Caesar was congratulating himself, a flashback happened!

Caesar is Prime Material for /r/IAmVerySmart

Caesar with a bob was weird. I’m guessing when he moved to Punk Hazard, there was a lack of stylists, so he just grew his hair out. That hair you see right now? That is four years of growth.

At any rate, Caesar was doing something a bit more important back in Vegapunk’s lab. He was debating morality with some other scientists. They begged him to stop his experiment. If it exploded, it would kill everyone on the island.

Caesar was typically receptive to criticism. “STFU, boneheads! Where do you think you are? This is a Marine research facility. They want to kill as many pirates as the can. What they need is a weapon that will do it for them.”

“But they don’t want one that will also kill civilians!”

Caesar’s rebuttal? “It’s called collateral damage! If we blow away everything, we can bring peace to the world.” (Does he genuinely believe that? That’s a properly depressing view of the world he holds there, if true.)

“You’re so...”

Caesar had a, “I’m gonna stop you right there” moment. They wanted to say he was cruel? What a joke. They were using prisoners as guinea pigs as if they were trash. What was the difference? (Fair point, Caesar.) Moreover, Admiral Sengoku was too soft, but Akainu, if he was in charge, *he* would want a weapon Caesar made. (Also interesting. I hope Caesar never decides to change sides again. He would be dangerous in Akainu’s hands.)

He went off on one about how Vegapunk had failed to turn people into giants again. Caesar knows you can’t turn people into giants in a short period of time unless you use magic, so had suggested Vegapunk just kidnap some kids and feed them drugs until something worked. What a lovely idea, Caesar! xD

The flash forward revealed Caesar’s “William Birkin Moment”.

Just as he made a significant discovery, Marines burst in and cuffed him with sea prism stone. Vegapunk himself came to see off his old colleague. I was ONE HUNDRED PERCENT HYPED for about half a second. But there was no face.

Blue balled. Again. xD

Caesar was summarily dismissed from the Science Department. “Your eccentric behaviour is intolerable and I cannot protect you anymore, Caesar.”

Interesting that what the rest of the scientists did was viewed as fine and dandy, but Caesar taking it a step further was regarded as “eccentric”. First off, eccentric is a gross understatement. Secondly, what they’re doing is pretty evil too. Caesar is just overtly, unashamedly amoral. They hide it better.

Suffering such a humiliation, Caesar had his “SCREW YOU!” moment and pushed the big red button. Punk Hazard went up in a Mighty Kaboom-Boom Cloud.

Still wondering how they all survived that, but I will chalk it up to plot and say no more.

Of course, after Caesar’s theatrics, his minions fell over themselves to apologise. Sorry, Master! You are the saviour, after all.

“Thank you... thank you all,” Caesar simpered, while inside he called them unintelligent fools. So easily manipulated. Dumb as bricks.

This guy needs taking down several pegs. Maybe an entire cloakroom rack.

Luffy, please oblige asap.

Caesar tells a rip-roaring, thigh-slapper of a yo momma joke.

(No one laughed.)

Explanations (Part 2)

Kaleido had found Fe's apartment and kidnapped her, pinning her two stories above the front entrance stairs forcing her to watch as he put bystanders into mazes. "You see Agreste, I can help these people far more than you ever could" he said gloating about his power looking over his work "I can make them face their problems and vices".

"Forcing them to confront the things they already struggle with isn't going to make them better, it will only destroy them" Fe' retorted "If you would just-".

Kaleido turned with a look of disgust "Silence you incompetent quack" he said looking up at her "My contract was terminated all because of your name". He turned back dismissing her with a wave of his hand "Pfft 'Agreste' your name belongs in fashion".

Fe' grit her teeth "And what do you know about MY FAMILY YOU EGOTISTICAL TWAT" she screamed with fury in her voice.

Chat heard Fe' shout and picked up the pace "I'm going ahead, don't lag behind" he said over his shoulder as he began to run on all fours. Ladybug tried her best to keep pace with Chat but he was too fast for her to stay with him as he leaped from roof to roof with practiced ease.

"Oh~not much, but soon I will know everything I need to" Kaleido stated deviously looking up at Fe' as she struggled and writhed against the ink that bound her. Chat had arrived and made his presence known with a shout as he jumped from the school roof arms above his head. Kaleido jumped back as Chat struck the ground where he had just been with his staff shattering the stairs, "How did you escape your labyrinth so quickly?" he demanded. Chat stood and threw his staff at him but it missed flying past hitting a hydrant causing it to burst and spew water into the street washing away some of the mazes.

"I dealt with that shit long before you made me relive it, no shut up and fight" Chat said cracking his knuckles.

"Ha! with aim like that you real-"

Chat tackled him into the puddle that the hydrant had formed, "I said shut up".

"Augh!" Kaleido exclaimed as he threw an ink blob at Chat hitting him square in the chest but it only splattered against him before being washed away. "What!?" he looked down at himself and saw his ink was runny and smearing "DAMN YOU" he yelled throwing a right hook, Chat took the hit without flinching.

"HAHA Not so tough without your ink are you" he mocked kicking his opponent in the gut hard enough to make him slide back, their fight quickly devolved into a brawl. Chat had landed multiple devastating blows that would crumple a normal human to Kaleido's sides and jaw as he tried to pummel him into submission. Ladybug saw Chat had the situation handled and didn't want to get involved so she decided to gather the nearby mazes, placing them together for when she cleansed the Akuma. Kaleido wasn't going down, changing tactics Chat started aiming for pockets, when he hit his front shirt pocket Chat heard and felt something break.

The Akuma flew from the pocket moments later which caught Ladybug's attention and she acted on instinct, cleansing it immediately. Doing so freed all those trapped in their mazes but it also dissolved the ink suspending Fe' causing her to plummet to the ground.

Ladybug was slow to recognize her grave error and tried to use her power before she hit the ground "Miraculous Ladybug" but she would hit the ground before it would work, luckily Chat was faster and had already caught her.

However he too acted on instinct and tossing her back into the air caught her on his shoulder and with an exhale said "Light as Balsa".

"What" Fe' said as what Chat had just said and done sunk in.

Chat quickly put a hand over his mouth putting Fe' down "Uh...*BEEP BEEP* Oh, would you look at that gotta go, glad you're safe bye" he said quickly before launching himself onto the roof. Fe' zoned out as she stared at where Chat had disappeared as gears in her head began to turn.

"Are you alright?" Ladybug asked putting a hand on Fe's shoulder.

Fe' looked at Ladybug for a moment before realizing that Ladybug had asked her a question "Y-yes I'm fine thank you for saving me" she said. Looking past Ladybug she saw a confused looking man that she assumed was the Kaleidotherapist "Is he going to be ok?" she asked pointing.

Ladybug looked over her shoulder to see what Fe' was pointing at "Oh yeah, he's just gonna be a little confused and maybe ashamed of what he did" she responded casually. "You must excuse my partner, he's been through a lot recently" she said.

Fe' looked back to where she watched Chat disappear "Yes...I'm sure he has..." she replied with a look of near horrified concern.

Ladybug caught her expression and tried to change the subject "There's a few things I'd like to ask you, is that alright?" she asked.

Fe' shook her head trying to clear her mind "Y-yes of course, what is it you'd like to know?".

Ladybug twiddled her thumbs looking down "I'd like to ask you a few questions about Adrien Agreste, he is your brother correct?" she asked, Fe' was silent.

Trying to formulate a lie with enough truth to sound believable, Fe' sighed "Yes we were brothers ,now brother sister, but I have not heard from him in quite some time and I have not had any contact with him since moving to Paris". She sniffled "I wish I could have been of more assistance and I hope he's ok, we haven't always had the best relationship with father but..." she forced a tear.

Ladybug stopped her "That's all I needed to hear, please don't force yourself to talk about it".

Fe' wiped her false tear "Thank you Ladybug, I need to get to work now so if you would excuse me" Ladybug nodded before zipping off in the opposite direction of Chat. Fe' watched until she was gone "I definitely need to talk to him when I drop by the tavern later" she thought as she entered the school.

Ladybug had gone until she was just out of line of sight "Tikki, Spots Off" she de-transformed and snuck into her room from the balcony. Marinette flopped onto her bed "Well Tikki, that was our last lead and it went nowhere fast".

"Don't give up Marinette, I'm sure you'll find him soon" Tikki said sounding encouraging, "Besides, he's a model whose face is known around Paris, how long can he hide?" she added.

"I guess you're right" Marinette sighed, then she heard her parents call from down stairs.

"Marinette, the villain is gone now, you'll be late if you don't leave soon" her dad hollered.

She rolled her eyes "Oui Papa, I was about to head out now just give me a moment" she called back grabbing her bag and heading down stairs saying goodbye to her parents on her way out. Outside she met up with Alya asking "So what did I miss, I kinda slept through this last attack and what happened to the hydrant?".

Alya wiped out her phone "Girl you amaze me sometimes, but you missed an interesting fight to say the least" she showed Marinette the video of Chat arriving and subsequent brawl.

Meanwhile Chat had stopped on the top level of the parking garage where he left his bike and de-transformed "Plagg, Claws In". Adrien let out a heavy sigh "Well this was certainly an eventful morning eh, Plagg" he said putting his helmet on and grabbing the other.

"Certainly was, kid" Plagg replied hiding in the second helmet.

Adrien bit his cheek "I just hope I didn't give myself away to Fe' back there" he thought to himself as he started the bike and headed for the tavern.

Fe' had met with the principal and received her full time schedule for the year. Now he was introducing her to the class she would be working with the most "Hello everybody, my name is Felix Agreste but please call me Fe' and I'm sure you have questions so please ask away".

Ivan was the first to ask "Why are you dressed like that if you have a boys name?" he asked trying his best to sound genuine and not offend.

"Ah one of the elephants in the room" Fe' said leaning herself on the teachers desk "I am Trans ,pre-op, from Male to Female and have yet to legally change my name" she explained. Then gesturing to herself "However if you are uncomfortable or confused please do not hesitate to refer to as simply 'Agreste' if it is easier, anything else on this matter?".

Rose was the next "Pronouns are 'She, Her' correct?" Fe' gave a confirming nod.

"That leaves only one more elephant in the room which I'm sure I can guess, my brother Adrien Agreste correct?" Fe' asked looking at the faces of the class. Most of them looked to the empty seat next to Nino, whom she met at the tavern and knew the truth of his disappearance. Most of their expressions changed to that of concern but one girl in the front seemed almost on the verge of tears "You there what's your name?" she asked pointing at her.

The girl had Jet black hair that shimmered with a beep blue "M-my name is Marinette but most people call me 'Mari' for short" she said wiping her eyes.

Fe' gave her a gentle and warm smile "Marinette, my door is always open to you if you need if you ever need to talk or have questions" then looking to the class "-that goes for all of you". She brought herself to a standing position "I do not know where my brother is and we haven't talked in years but I have never known him to act rashly without reason" she said leaving the room. Once in her office she pulled out her phone and tried to call Adrien but there was no answer, her theories about Chat were making her crazy and she needed to find out what happened. She started making a checklist in her mind of parallels between Adrien and Chat "Their hair, eyes, they both wear masks, not to mention that catch".

Adrien was at the tavern and helping Milo unload the wood and tools they would need to repair or replace the table and booths along with a floor sander and gallons of stain and sealant. He had left his phone and wallet in the locker room, they decided that removing the booths and tables so they could sand and refinish the floor should come first. They worked throughout the entirety of the day to finish the floor, only taking a break to let the new stain and sealant dry.

School continued as usual with Alya and the class plus Luka meeting after school to search for Adrien as they had everyday since he ran away. Marinette and Nino ,however, did not join them, Nino had told Alay that his uncle needed help renovating. Marinette had said she was going to talk with Fe', Alya fully supported and encouraged her.

*Knock knock knock* "The door is open" Fe' said sitting organizing the various bits and bobs on her desk.

Marinette entered closing the door behind her "M-miss Agreste, I'd like to talk to you about some stuff".

Fe' looked up from her work for a moment to see who she was talking to "Ah Marinette was it, how are you holding up?" she asked as she continued to arrange her desk. "From your reaction in the classroom earlier it seems my brother's vanishing act has impacted you quite a-bit" she stated.

"That's actually one of the things I wanted to talk to you about-" Marinette said twiddling her thumbs.

Fe' raised an eyebrow "And what would the other thing be, my dear?".

"You're not much older than us so how did you get a job as a full fledged student counselor?" Marinette asked.

Fe' lowered her brow "Oh...that's what's troubling you my dear, well I may not look it but I'm 22 going on 23 soon and I worked extremely hard to get into accelerated courses". Then looking Marinette in the eye asked "Now what about my brother did you wish to talk about?".

Marinette froze for a moment before saying "You said you never knew him to act rashly".

"-without reason, yes" Fe' confirmed.

Marinette began to pace "Right, but...what did you mean by that, from what anybody can tell he just up and left his home and his friends after very clearly being severely injured somehow. I mean I wasn't here so I don't know what happened exactly but I saw the video that my friend Alya took and he was coughing up blood so-".

Fe' had heard enough to know what the class knew about Adrien "Marinette" she said ,her voice carrying knowledge in it's tone, "-I know Adrien better than any living person and you don't know the kind of person he is".

Marinette was taken aback "What do you mean, He's kind, caring, considerate, and just perfect" she said.

Fe' stood from her desk looking her in the eye "You know the mask he was forced to wear because of our father" she said raising her voice slightly. She paused to recompose then in a level yet somber tone, "If you wish to know the real story of Adrien Agreste then I will be in the classroom during lunch this Friday". Fe' gathered her things and checked out for the day "I have some things I need to attend to, I'm sorry I couldn't help but I think it's best if I tell everyone everything at once".

Marinette was silent as she followed Fe' out of her office and watched her leave calling someone on her phone, she stood staring as Fe's words sank in "The real story of Adrien Agreste". The sound of a motorcycle shook her from her stupor, descending the stairs she saw Fe' taking the helmet offered by the rider whose face was concealed and handing him what looked like a kitten. The rider paused putting the kitten in his jacket then looked through the door, Marinette felt his eyes on her ,it was a familiar feeling, she moved to descend the stairs. The rider had taken off and was gone before she could get down and confront him "I'll have to ask Miss Fe' about that man tomorrow" she said to herself crossing the street to her home.

"You got some explaining to do, Brother" Fe' said leaning in so he could hear her over the wind ,Adrien didn't respond, after a few minutes he parked the bike in the same spot as last time.

"Well I'd say it's safe to assume you got the job" he said stretching out as they walked adding "Tavern's closed for today and the others are out for a bit so it's just us" as he held the door.

Fe' smiled as she entered "That's good because we have a lot to talk about, wouldn't you agree, 'Kitty'?".

Adrien was closing the door behind them and slammed it on his foot at her words "OUCH!" he yelled.

"Oh suck it up if you can take a food truck going 45(mph) and sneak your ass out of the emergency room you can take a door to the foot" Fe' said rolling her eyes.

"Still hurts dammit" he argued before switching topics with a sigh "So...was it the catch or the phrase?".

"Both really" Fe' replied plainly.

He sighed again "Figures" he deadpanned "Plagg, no point in hiding now" he said then turning to Fe' "Well you know now so I'm sure you got questions so ask-".

Fe' cut him off with a hug, she was crying "You big stupid idiot ,I've read the headlines, how many times have you put yourself in danger like that?". He hugged her back with nothing to say "You really are a glutton for danger aren't you!".

Adrien patted her back "Some things never change do they, Fe'?" this time she had nothing to say as she pulled him closer listening to his heart beat.

They stood there for a while as Fe' sobbed lightly, after a few minutes she stepped back from him "You didn't tell them your history?" she asked.

Adrien shook his head while Plagg answered "They only knew the model and they didn't seem too interested in his history so he left a lot unsaid and unshown".

Fe' wiped her tears and crossed her arms "Well they're trying to understand why you ran away from everything and I told that girl ,Marinette, I would tell your real story".

"After what I did they deserve to know, just give them the short version will you" Adrien asked.

Fe' nodded "I didn't plan on telling everything but they will have questions that I can't answer".

"I'm sure they will but all I can do is tell them I'm alive, maybe we can coordinate with Nino so I can call sometime soon and tell them myself that I'm ok" he said with a shrug.

Just as Adrien finished his sentence Nino burst through the door shouting energetically "Welcome back Black Cat, I got your..welders...mask-oh".

Adrien face palmed " Speak of the devil-" he mumbled "Well if you didn't figure it out before you would have now" he said still facing Fe'. Then looking to Nino "She knows now too, no she won't tell, but we need your help". He explained that he would need him to attend Fe's story time at the end of the week.

"Ok, ok but can we talk details tomorrow, oh maybe we can hit the pool when we do ,there's no search party tomorrow so we can all relax at the pool" Nino suggested.

Adrien agreed "Milo and I are probably going to be too sore to get any real work done so I don't see anything wrong with a little RnR".

Fe' did as well stating "I didn't bring any bathing suits with me but I'm sure Adrien doesn't mind helping me shop for one and he can explain to me all that's happened with Chat". Adrien deflated at the thought of being dragged around in public for an extended period of time even if it was with Fe'. With plans set for tomorrow they went their separate ways, Adrien dropped Fe' off at her place again taking Belial with him this time and parked his bike in the same garage.

"Evening Ladybug, you ready for patrol?" Chat asked stretching his arms and back.

"Chat...why did you stop?" Ladybug asked sounding sad.

Chat was confused "Stopped what LB"

"That" she replied.

"You're gonna have to-"

Ladybug turned getting in his face "Why did you stop calling me 'Your Lady' when did you change..." she crossed her arms holding herself "what did I do that made you change so much?".

Chat walked past her taking a seat on the edge of the roof they were standing on "You just got back and it appears we're both dealing with a lot in our civilian lives".

Ladybug joined Chat taking a seat next to him "You still haven't answered my question, Chat"

He sighed "If I told you what was going on it wouldn't take much for you to figure out my identity but to answer your question, you wanted to keep it professional and I accepted that".

"What do you mean?" Ladybug asked watching Chat's mask looking for any sign of emotion.

"I thought the purple one of me would have been enough for you to figure it out" Chat said as Belial jumped into his lap.

Ladybug looked over Paris "So you gave up?".

Chat chuckled "I didn't 'give up' Ladybug, I accepted reality and dropped a facade but..." he leaned to lay on his back "-I will admit I've been a little distant lately and for that I am sorry".

Ladybug let out a sigh of relief, his words were ,in a way, reassuring "So when are you going to show me what's under that mask, Kitty?" she asked jokingly.

Chat laughed "What happened to 'we can't know each others' identities'?".

"Touche'" Ladybug said standing up offering her hand to him "Come on we got patrol tonight" Chat smiled and took her hand. Paris was quiet ,save for the volunteer search parties looking for Adrien, after patrol Chat needed to feed Belial. Once Ladybug was gone he dropped by his camp to recharge and get some cat chow before heading to his sleeping spot. As Adrien drifted into a dreamless sleep Plagg visited Marinette and Tikki again to continue the discussion about Chat's heart, Plagg had managed to put her mind at ease.

"He will always fight with you, he just doesn't want to make you uncomfortable or end up pushing you away" Plagg told them "He is fiercely loyal, just give him time and he'll open up".

The next morning Adrien woke up before the sun was even peeking over the horizon, Belial was sleeping curled up in his hood and Plagg was still asleep in his pocket. "Gotta get Plagg that triple cheese I owe him" he thought to himself before climbing down as quietly as he could and made his way to the nearby cheese shop. He bought an 8cm wheel of Camembert and put in the pocket Plagg was sleeping in as a good morning present, in the meantime Adrien sat on the bench where Belial appeared. As the sun began to shine over the rooftops and onto the streets Plagg had awoken and gorged himself on the Camembert wheel while Adrien stroked Belial's back in his lap. Out of the corner of his eye Adrien saw a figure zip by ,Ladybug was early, but there was nobody nearby so "Plagg, Claws Out" he transformed right there on the bench.

The flash caught Ladybug's eye and she jumped down to investigate only to find Chat "Did you really just transform in public like nothing was wrong with it?" she asked already annoyed.

"Yes I did" Chat said shrugging "But I am curious as to what the Ladybug of Paris is up so early?" he added.

Ladybug shook her head mumbling "I will never understand you" then speaking up "I wanted to get patrol over-with early, have you finished your rounds?".

"No but I was just about to start" he replied.

"We can do it together then, I'll finish this half and you start on the other"Ladybug offered.

Chat nodded "Sounds good, we'll meet up at the Eiffel tower when I'm done" Ladybug returned his nod and they went their separate ways. Ladybug finished first and waited for Chat at the tower for around ten minutes before he arrived with a black eye, "Couple of muggers...one had a bat but he won't be swinging anytime soon". Ladybug wanted to ask what he did to the other guys arms but thought it best if she didn't ask.

"I need to go, you gonna be ok?" Ladybug asked pointing to his eye.

Chat waved it off "I'll be fine, the swelling'll be gone soon and it'll be just a bad bruise by the end of the day" Ladybug shrugged with a sigh seeming to accept his response before zipping off. School went by quietly, Fe' got to know some of the school staff, Marinette spread the word about Fe's story time on Friday, and no Akuma so no Ladybug and Chat Noir. Adrien spent the day lounging around hid camp reading his magazines, playing with Belial and chatting with Plagg about what they're going to tell Fe' about while they shopped.

It was almost time for school to let out "Hey Nino, since we're not doing a search party today you got any plans later?" Alya asked "If not do you can come over to my place to hang".

Nino rubbed his neck "Actually I'm going to the pool with that friend of mine ,the shy one, and I don't wanna-"

"OH, hold up let me send a group invite to the class and we can all go" Alya said cutting him off, pulling out her phone and sending the invite before he could protest. She patted him on the back "Great idea, Nino".

Nino sighed thinking to himself "Well so much for privacy, I need to warn Adrien while he's out shopping with Fe' and hope he doesn't kill me".

Eventually the final bell rang and Fe' called Adrien to come pick her up again to take her to the mall, he was there with Belial shortly. The sound of the bike made Marinette remember that she wanted to speak with the rider but again they were gone before she could confront them. During the ride Plagg and Fe' talked about the things Adrien had done as Chat Noir and what happened to him in greater detail than the news articles she had read. At the mall Fe' was like a kid in the candy store and Adrien followed her around voicing his opinions when asked.

"Oh come on are you just follow me like a shadow and speak only when spoken to or are you going to help find something cute to wear?" she asked sounding frustrated.

Adrien pointed upward petting Belial with his other hand "Womens swim swimwear is on the second floor, I think you'd look cute in a two piece with ruffles and a skirt" he deadpanned.

Fe' blushed a little "T-too blunt you dork!" she stammered before turning to the elevator with a huff.

Adrien looked down at Plagg, then to Belial and shrugged "She wanted my opinion" he said before hurrying to catch up with Fe' to walk beside her. After trying on several one and two piece swimsuits Fe' eventually found a top and bottom that matched Adrien's original suggestion. Adrien had been running all over to get what she needed, along the way found a bandanna with no pattern ,he grabbed two, one to cover his face the other his head. When Fe' asked what they were for as they checked out he tapped the left side of his hospital mask. Nino was already at the pool with the rest of the class and had been there for only about ten minutes and was waiting in the changing room when Adrien arrived.

"I thought it was just going to be us" Adrien said annoyed that he would have to be on guard.

Nino rubbed the bridge of his nose "Yeah that was the plan, but I told Alya I was coming here and she invited the whole class"

Adrien shook his head as he began to change "Good job" he said sarcastically.

Nino turned to give him privacy "But the good news is I told her I had a really shy friend who hates crowds" he snapped making finger guns "guess who it is" he said matching Adriens sarcasm.

Adrien sighed "Well I planned on staying in the hot tub most of the time anyway"

"See, everything works out in the end" Nino said with a laugh, then asked "Fe' using the girls room?".

Adrien had finished changing and tapped Nino on the shoulder to let him know it was safe before replying "Yeah, she's probably out there already mingling with the others". Holding up the bandannas he explained "I just need to cover up and I'll join you as 'the shy friend' in a minute". Nino nodded before leaving the room to join the Fe' and the others in the main pool, Adrien exited shortly after with his hair tucked under one bandanna and his mouth covered by the other. He walked holding one arm trying to portray someone who was shy and timid which wasn't hard for him, scars were dotted across him which is why he commonly avoided activities that would force him to expose himself.

Luckily everybody was distracted talking to and complimenting Fe', allowing him to get to the hot tub, turn on the bubbles, and get in before most of them noticed him.

"Hey Nino is that your 'shy friend'?" Rose asked pointing toward the hot tub.

Nino turned to see who she was talking about "Oh yeah, he doesn't like crowds but that doesn't stop him from enjoying himself" he said waving it off.

Rose swam over to Juleka, whose head was bobbing quietly in one of the secluded corners of the pool "Hey Jule, if you're uncomfortable why don't you join Nino's friend" she encouraged. Juleka peeked over the edge of the pool toward the hot tub and the boy who had his eyes closed and nodded before getting out and walked over to the hot tub shivering.

"Uhm d-do you mind?" she asked in her usual hushed tone, Adrien opened his eyes looking at Juleka and saw her in a deep purple halter top with a seamless bottom shivering. He quickly moved over to give her room gesturing for her to get in, she stepped in and immediately relaxed thanking him as she took a seat across from him. He waved his hand to signal there was no need for thanks before leaning back letting himself sink until the bubbles were at eye level. The others continued to go about their business, When Adrien would come up for air he had the perfect vantage point to see everyone in the main pool.

After a while of sitting in silence he began to look at each of his former classmates to see what they were wearing every time he would poke his head above water. All the boys wore swim trunks ,except Kim of course, who was in his swim cap and speedo doing laps on one side of the pool. Adrien was surprised by the girls swim attire however, Rose was in an all pink one piece, Alix wore a sporty two piece, Mylene and Sabrina both wore a simple one piece that suited them nicely. Chloe and Alya were in two pieces that were heavily inspired by Queen Bee and Rena Rouge respectively, Marinette wore an open back one piece that Alya definitely picked out.

Adrien hid his head partially in the bubbles leaving his nose above the water, the bubbles tickled his eyelashes making it difficult to keep his eyes open so he closed them. "Huh guess I was missing out on a lot of fun with them" he thought to himself letting out a sigh, a quiet but sharp inhale caught his attention. When he opened his eyes he saw Juleka covering her mouth and wide eyed with a look of concern on her face. He gave a puzzled look before realizing he could open his eyes ,the bubbles had stopped, he looked down "Too bad my face is-...was the only normal thing about me" he thought.

At the same time Fe' was preparing to make an announcement "Is the whole class here, Dear?" she asked.

"Yes Miss Agreste, Alya invited the whole class" Marinette answered with a nod.

Fe' smiled "Good, then I won't have to repeat this" she said before projecting her voice "Everyone, since you're all here I think it's time I tell you the real story of Adrien Agreste". Everyone had dropped what they were doing, silence fell over the pool as they gathered near the edge of the pool where Fe' was sitting to listen. They were only a few feet from the hot tub where Adrien and Juleka were sitting still as statues, "Now everything I'm about to tell you is the short version but I assure you they happened" Fe' began. The further she got into the story ,sticking to major events and the things Adrien did for her in New York, the more the class began to understand his attitude toward everything.

Juleka's eyes wandered to the scars that matched the events Fe' was explaining, as the story progressed it became more and more apparent to her who she was sitting across from. Adrien sighed and lifted his head bandanna just enough for Juleka to see his hair, she pointed at him ready to say his name but he was faster.

Crossing the hot tub he covered her mouth raising a finger to his own whispering to her "Talk to Nino" before slowly removing his hand, Juleka nodded as Adrien sat back down. The others didn't notice as the story continued

"When they moved to Paris I stayed behind to study...and that, that is one decision I wish I hadn't made", Fe's tone had become even more somber than when she had explained the death of their eldest brother. She went on to tell what she knew of their mothers disappearance and the relationship between Adrien and their father making a side note "-so that's the other reason he hated Christmas". Fe' rubbed her eyes "And that's everything there is to know about Adrien Agreste, the man who takes every hit, bares every scar, and does it with pride, I just hope he's ok" she said looking over her shoulder at him.

...Phoenix’s phone has caller ID??

ooh a phone vocal-blip. cute

ok fuck you how is the Benefactor keeping tabs on them?? Did Atishon use his One Phone Call to report to headquarters or something???

“I admit, I didn’t see that coming”

well spoilers guys I know who the benefactor is, and they have to be pretty fucking stupid not to know that a spirit medium is needed for this.

“its your friendly neighbourhood dragon”

no dhurke, youre not cool enough to be spiderman.

“you cant lay a hand on maya fey, and i mean literally”

>foreboding

[sighs deeply]

guys. just. fucking call edgeworth. he’s chief prosecutor of america and his sister is part of INTERPOL. call edgeworth and just. fix the fucking problem. right now.

“No time to explain”

ggghhghghhghghgh

...oh. there’s edgeworth

...............now watch him be completely fucking useless

.......ARE YOU KIDDING ME

PHOENIX /DID/ CALL EDGEWORTH THE MOMENT MAYA WAS KIDNAPPED AND HE STILL WENT THROUGH HIS FUCKING “DUHHH BETTER DEFEND THIS OBVIOUS CRIMINAL” SHIT??

oh edgeworth. you and your chartered planes.

whenever he does that i like to imagine he hired MJN air.

Edgeworth...

A) Why are you letting Dhurke be involved? Just cut him out, send Franziska and Lang in with a team of guys and kick the shit out of the enemy

B) You don’t need to conceal someone on a charter jet. You chartered it. You can do whatever the fuck you want with it. Besides, Dhurke got into the country p easily, he can get out the same way.

C) Dhurke is a criminal. Depending on what he’s done as a rebel, he could be as guilty in your country as his home country. Why are you acting like he’s innocent? Aren't you kind of by-the-book?

oh yeah and despite the fact that they’ve updated Phoenix’s sprite, Miles still looks like a frozen plank of wood. Thanks :\

Apollo: Sorry Trucy, guess you have to hold all the unnecessary evidence and hold down the fort and be LEFT BEHIND FOR A CHANGE AAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

oh. this is a really nice garden.

the drama theme is kinda harshing the mellow tho

o hai rayfa

um. what the fuck. that mask must make it pretty difficult to do shit pal

Garan, whilst ordering her henchmen online: drama queen or king preferred

UR DIARRHOEA, GAH-RAHN

cool theme, love the use of the royal “we”.

“what about those guards over there”

“ohh, just prepared to fuck shit u–– iii mean help you haha.”

yeahhh... I'm not buying her super calm “my husband is a kidnapper” attitude.

UIGSFILGFLIS DHURKE YOU FUCKING MORON

god he’s such a useless piece of shit. unless he’s trying to get taken so that he can be taken to... idk, wherever Maya is held in some sort of Gambit, he’s a real moron for just up and outing himself like that.

BAAAAARBED HEAD. YOU HAVE SOME SPLAAAAAAAAININ TO DOOOO

man why do they even give us other options if we can’t use them???

“Dhurke... I sure hope he’s alright”

hey apollo wanna hear a secret

i dont

Phoenix externally: Patience, Apollo, patience.

Phoenix internally: we are so screwed at any moment the queen could be all “OFF WITH YOUR HEAD” and i’ll never see trucy or maya again jesus holy mother buddha help me

i love that Garananana is kinda just chilling with them. You got more important shit to do, queenie. like being evil

also open your goddamn mouth once in a while, sheesh

Apollo: I hope no one gets hurt

The entire series of ace attorney as a whole: oh honey

wait ... INGA HAD A RATTAIL?!

ohhh yesss listen to those punches

why couldn’t they have animated it too ;w;

phew. im glad Maya’s ok.

yeesh... poor Rayfa.

i love that even apollo’s like “fuck dad, you didn't kill him, did you?????”

its a beautiful contrast to how adamant he was about Trucy not killing Manov.

um, soundtrack, now is not the time for Grand Revival. I know Edgeworth is on screen but the shit he’s saying is far, far from uplifting.

“it seems prosecutor sahdmadhi has grown quite fond of her”

nooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

“they’ve almost become a team of sorts”

ok so mark Ema down on the list of AJ characters who will never be seen again after this game.

fuck man i’d even take Klema over this

can you imagine if they'd split up Apollo/Phoenix Edgeworth/Athena instead

i really wonder how Athena and Edgeworth would interact. Athena’s spunky enough to be a bit like Kay I suppose, so maybe similar to that.

again, Kooraheen’s detention centre theme is really quite pretty

too bad i have to look at Dhurke’s face while listening to it

...a tasty... hash house

oh apollo’s up for that

well tbh if i was him i could use some hash after all this shit

yEAH YOU TELL’IM APOLLO

SMARTEN THAT BASTARD UP

god apollo he’s not worth it. i’d say leave the fucker to his fate but i guess it is important to find the real killer... sigh

apparently queen Amara liked insensitive fuckbags with masculinity issues

oh well. to each their own.

>:( don’t compare Dhurke’s story to Phoenix’s, Apollo

“you ran?! but why?!!”

oh i dunno, athena, maybe the fucking death penalty?????

hang the fuck on

are you telling me that Dhurke started making trips to his shitty abandoned law office via sewer... while Apollo was still with him?!

Like what fucking reason would he have to drag him down there?! The place is an archive/resistance base, but Apollo and Sadmad lived in the mountains as children; why the fuck would he take his /kids/ into town at the risk of having them all arrested at once?!

WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM, DHURKE

that orb better be a fucking laser or some shit cause I'm really tired of hearing about it

oh......... hi sadmad..................... what a pleasure to see you........... again................

just as fucking pleasant as ever

i love that Dhurke is like “what happened to fighting the man, son??”

like even if he is a double agent he can’t very well just be like “psst I'm still on your side!!!!” in front of the fucking guard

i hate that dhurke’s face is so placid during this too.

“Son, why did you betray me? Also how was the sports game?”

“The Nahyuta you knew exists no more”

yeah sure sadblackworth, whatever you say

oh well that was abrupt

meh, onwards to the tomb

“No, that’s the holy mother. She’s the one who brought spirit channeling to Khura’in”

oh so you mean Ami Fey.

oh ema... i’ll miss you while youre off being Sadmad’s lapdog

“You mean His Ephemeral Holiness?”

Yes, Ema, fight it!!! Fight it!!!!!!

“But when he manages a smile and compliments my work, it’s hard to say no.”

...nuts.

wait what do you mean the defendant is someone you know

you met Dhurke like once a day ago

aw apollo took the locked-room-mystery words right out of my mouth. i love him so. why are they going to take him away?

alrihgt back to this shit after like a 3 month hiatus or something

i love how chill everyone is talking about Maya’s kidnapping

“oh yeah he brought her here to the tomb so nobody would see. sensible thing to do. oh also maya almost died but i guess that’s nbd”

casually opens a tomb

casually opens the sarcophagus hangings

casually tries to open the sarcophagus when told there’s a mummy inside

apollo, you're contracting douche-itis from everyone else. this old family of yours is a bad influence.

...we’re gonna yeet this sarcophagus arent we

i love that Amara’s just kinda. depicted standing there as she’s burned to death. i mean i guess theyre trying to preserve her beauty and dignity in death but it also makes her look like an idiot who didnt try to escape the flames.

ooh i like that last one though

pff thats a pretty well-equipped corpse line

“Where’d the other three bullets go?”

“Maybe Dhurke ate them?”

if he did they'd better have a VERY good explanation

“the poor guy”

EMA

HE WAS HOLDING MAYA HOSTAGE

“the cuffs of justice”

love it

“just one of those traditions people do and they dont know the reason why”

“like rolling up your sleeves?”

“or your psychology, if we’re going there” HE FUCKING WENT THERE

OOOOOOOOOOO I LOVE YOU APOLLO

“he said grape juice has something in it that helps you relax”

are we going into grape juice lore here

"Really? ...Um, are you sure he was talking about regular, plain old grape juice?”

Yes, actually, Athena. It’s canonical that it is /actual off-the-vine welsh’s good ol’ sippy cup grape juice/. It’s not a metaphor or a censoring for kids, it’s just juice.

Of course, this is written by the DDSOJ staff. And considering the intense, dark n’ gritty action makeover the series got, I wouldn’t put it past them to retcon the juice into the... “fermented variety”. thanks Athena.

Yayyy not only do they write shitty dads, but they have to retroactively en-shitten Phoenix as an alcoholic father. Gosh, I sure do love these guys.

(obviously this isn’t a dig at anyone who head canons gj as wine, there’s a difference between head canons and malicious retconning.)

hmm interesting mechanic for this chair. i guess since you can’t stuff it in your inventory you cant do the ‘look all over’ thing. but on the other hand, they REALLY wanted to impress you with that hidden blood.

Ema: [performs a blood test in 2 seconds] I didn’t get a match!

Well probably not in that time, babe

i have to commend them on the little cutscene though that was nice.

again, i guess Amara really liked emotionally stunted fuckwads

the devil horns are a bit much, though.

oh damn.

thats a nice ass pendant

...oh thats blood

well, it sets off the pink and gold quite nicely. and its a butterfly... seems like something Dahlia would wear

“speak of the devil...”

speak of the devil indeed. hiiiiiii sadmad... its been a while.

oh ok he didnt say anything

also i find it funny that apollos like “Wait!! wait!! damnit, after him!”

and then you just. go back into the talk menu with Ema. bit of a moment killer, there.

“why does everything have to be so difficult with you?”

cause hes a prosecutor, apollo. thats just how it is on this bitch of an earth

“the law is the law. placing personal feelings above it is beyond reprieve”

ah but placing religion above it is totally fine. gotcha yuts

“And the winner is... prosecutor Sahdmadi!”

helpful, athena

“it’s like he’s trying to cover something up with his pretty words!”

oh did you mean the inevitable reveal that he's actually a good guy and we have to forgive him for being a shitwad?

oh wow. that joke post about sadmad developing generalized anxiety was actually based on a legit thing that happened

is it ok if i hate him even more for it? i mean how did he figure it out? he didn’t let apollo use it in court so where would he have gained the knowledge? unless he knows about Thalassa’s abilities...

...also, how /is/ he doing this? the way Perceive works isn’t just “i can sense that you’re uncomfortable”, it’s that people who can use it have extremely good eye-sight and see tiny little movements in other people. If they’re smart about it, they can tell that the movements mean the enemy is lying. Apollo just happens to get tense when he notices this, most likely because he’s kind of straining his eyes.

But then again that brings up the fact that his power would act up CONSTANTLY, either because EVERYBODY FIDGETS, or Apollo himself could just be stressed and making the bracelet squeeze on its own.

So thanks, SOJ. Not content with ruining Apollo’s canon, you’ve also got to ruin his cool lawyer power. Gosh, you’re just the gift that keeps on giving, aren’t you?

“Powerless in the face of the Holy Mother’s blessings”

SOJ team is now nicknamed the Holy Mother. Or possibly the Unholy Mother.

“Looks like your power won’t work against Sadmadhi. Guess we’ll have to try something else.”

“Yeah, let’s ask Dhurke...”

Yeah. Because you obviously don’t have someone with you RIGHT NOW who ALSo has a special power. You dont even have TWO POEPLE with you with a special power. Guess we’d better talk to the man who birthed this shiteater.

“I won against Mr. Wright”

yeah in a completely rigged trial where losing would be the worst option. thats not really something to brag about, you know.

“...doomed to be reborn as something lower than a bug or a vegetable”

you heard it here first folks Sadmad hates sustaining agriculture and the bees.

>Lang’s scrolls and dickfuckery

>Edgeworth’s by-the-bookishness

>Franziska’s catchphrase

>Blackquill’s backstory twist

These were the ingredients chosen to make the perfect prosecutor. But the SOJ writers accidentally added an extra ingredient to the concoction: BAD WRITING

THUS UNINSPIRED ASSHOLE WAS BORN!

apollo you don’t matter to anyone anymore youre getting the boot. do as your foster pop said when you were a drowning 5 y/o and suck those pussy baby tears back into your skull.

welp thats it for part one of investigation day 2. now (i think) we’re headed over to the delicious pandering of Phoenix and Edgeworth, back together. Will it bring me solace despite being an obvious ratings grab?

good god, i hope so.

till next time.

#sulking over SOJ #im gonna do this; I'm gonna finish it. i swear.]

Crazy Rich Asians Section Five

Part Three: Chapters 8-20

1. What do Astrid and Charlie confess to each other? What does Charlie insist they do about it? Charlie confesses that he hasn’t lived with his wife in two years. She was invited to the wedding but they live separate lives now. And Astrid confesses about Michael. She tells Charlie about the affair and how she thinks Michael fathered a child with this woman. And Charlie asks why she doesn’t know for sure. She says she can’t really check into it without raising suspicion. So Charlie insists that they go to Hong Kong right now. He says they can use his jet and she can stay with him so no one will know she’s there. And he knows the best private investigators since his brother’s kidnapping. He says they can easily find out if Michael has another child. And when Astrid protests because of the wedding festivities, Charlie points out that they’re both currently hiding from the party and no one will even notice if they’re there or not.

2. What happened in Paris 1995, when Charlie took Astrid shopping? So they went to a couture shop and the salespeople were super rude and didn’t believe they could really afford to buy anything. So Charlie called his bank to have them call the shop and confirm the purchase. And apparently the bank called the designer who called and chewed out his salespeople. Then Charlie told Astrid to buy at least 10 or 20 pieces basically just to prove that they had money. And the rest of the trip was spent much the same way. Charlie bought Astrid all kinds of designer items and introduced her to her love of shopping. She was raised by rich people who acted like they weren’t rich and were stingy with their money. But Charlie is a rich person who spent money like a rich person and enjoyed having nice things. And Astrid found she liked that way of life better.

3. What does Nick announce to his mother in chapter 11? How does she react? Nick tells his mother that he’s taking Rachel away for a few days and he plans to propose to her while they’re gone. And Eleanor basically freaks out and plays almost every card she has: she tells him Rachel isn’t good enough, she’ll never be accepted, Ah Ma will disinherit him, Rachel is from Mainland China. But Nick doesn’t accept any of this. He tells his mom that he loves Rachel and he intends to marry her and doesn’t need anyone’s approval to do so and then storms out. And then Eleanor heads off to Tyersall Park to play the last card she has left.

4. What does Rachael learn from Eleanor after she and Nick arrived at his grandmother’s house in Malaysia? Her mother has always told her that her father died in an industrial accident when she was two months old and that’s why her mother moved to America. But Eleanor reveals that her father is very much alive and in prison. It turns out he was the CAUSE of the industrial accident which killed 74 people and he’s been rotting away in prison ever since. Eleanor visited him and he had the audacity to ask for a huge dowry for her. Eleanor also shows them an article about a missing child (Rachel), who was kidnapped by her mother Kerry. And Rachel, of course knew nothing about this and promptly collapses.

5. What does Astrid learn about Michael’s affair when she confronts him at his mistress’s house? He confesses that he faked the whole affair. The woman is his cousin and the boy is her son. He says that he thought that creating an affair would be easier because it would give Astrid a reason to divorce him and it would save face for her family. He tells her that their marriage hasn’t worked since day one and while dating was fun, they never should’ve married. He says he’s never been accepted into her family and he’ll never measure up financially. And he’s just tired of living in her world. So he wants a divorce because he wants out, not because there’s someone else.

6. What sacrifices does Eleanor confess she has made for her son? She says that she knew Su Yi never approved of her so she moved out of Tyersall Park so there wouldn’t be two competing Mrs. Youngs. Then she positioned Nick to be the favorite grandson. She left him to be raised by his grandmother and always left his grandmother come first in his life so that he would be closer to her. She wanted Nick to be the heir to Su Yi’s fortune and to Tyersall Park but now it’s all been for naught. Eleanor says that Su Yi never forgives and Nick angered her greatly.

7. What does Rachel’s mom tell her about her past life in China? She explains that she ran off with a guy who was six years older than her because she'd lived a more ~sheltered life. Well, the guy was from a rich family and he turned out to be an alcoholic and horribly abusive. At first, they lived with his grandparents and all they wanted was a grandchild. When Kerry failed to give them one, they made her life hell. So Kerry and her husband moved into their own apartment but that's when he started getting abusive. Kerry ended up meeting a guy who was a year younger who lived in the apartment directly below them. He saved her on many nights when her husband was beating her. She started having an affair with him and got pregnant with Rachel. So he's truly Rachel's father. But she broke off the affair when they almost got caught and then, when her mother-in-law discovered Kerry was pregnant (assuming it was her son's child), Kerry and her husband moved back in with her in-laws. Well, the grandparents hired a fortune teller who said Kerry would have a boy. But then Rachel was born and since there was a one child law at that time, Kerry had failed her in-laws. However, if a child was born with a defect, a family could have another. So the in laws were planning to pour acid in one of Rachel's eyes to make it look like she was born blind in one eye. That's when Kerry took the baby and walked out. She called Rachel's father who helped her make it back to the village where her parents lived and then she escaped to America. She doesn't know what became of Rachel's father-- the man she truly loved and who never even knew he was Rachel's father --or really anyone she left behind. Though she does know that her parents died young. But she saved Rachel and she escaped and she knew she couldn't look back, only forward.

8. Did you like this book? Do you think you will continue with the series? I liked this book a lot! It was a really fun, interesting read. This entire world is absolutely fascinating. I love how, deep down, really rich people are the same no matter where you go but it's the culture and the customs that are different. And that was really fascinating. So I enjoyed this book a lot and I've already asked for the next two for Christmas so I'll definitely be continuing with this series!

Section Five Reading Journal

Wow okay. So that last section was waaaaay different than the movie. So Nick and Rachel aren’t engaged??? There was no reconciling with Eleanor. Rachel’s father is possibly still alive. And Michael faked his entire affair. Are all but the last thing from a different book? Did the movie take parts of the second book??? I am so confused.

I also definitely need to rewatch the movie because there when times when I was like “wait was this in the movie and I just don’t remember???” So I’ll definitely be rewatching that and doing a comparison. But yeah. The beginning of this book was pretty much the same but this last section was waaaay different.

Also when I was like ten pages from the end and Kerry was still telling Rachel about her life in China and Nick hadn’t proposed I was like “okay there isn’t enough book left here for everything that I remember happening at the end of the movie.” So yeah. That was different. ALSO ASTRID AND CHARLIE. There wasn’t enough Charlie in the movie and I’m upset. Because wow was there a lot of Charlie at the end of this book. I need more of their relationship. So I hope there is a second movie because there are definitely things it needs to cover, haha.

So. That was another great read!!! And I can’t wait to read next months! (Though no idea how long it will take me to post the questionnaires for that since I’m currently posting this from my hotel room. We don’t have internet yet and I also don’t even know where the book is, hahaha. So hopefully I won’t get too far behind!)

The Winter Soldier (part 3/4)

A/N: Hey guys!!! It’s been so long since I uploaded this series so I decided to make it slightly longer. Well, it’s not as long as the previous one but this one is pretty long haha😅Anyways, enjoy!!

Word Count: 3,108

Part one//Part two//Part three//Part four//Epilogue

You opened your eyes, as you heard Steve grunting, pushing a large rock away. Squinting your eyes, you tried to clear your vision.

“Are you okay?” You asked as Steve coughed from all the dust.

He nodded as he helped you up from the ground first before turning back and picking an unconscious Natasha. “Let’s get out of here.”

Both of you started walking, pausing as you heard the sounds of aircrafts. You looked to Steve as he nodded, both of you getting out of that place as quick as possible before they shone the lights on the two of you.

The three of you walked up the path, you standing in front as you reached out to knock the door.

After about a minute, the binds at the door opened, revealing a confused looking Sam Wilson. He opened the door and looked at the three of you individually with a frown. Which you aren’t really surprised as all of you looked like a mess, with dirt smudged on all your clothes and faces.

“Hey, man,” Sam greeted, looking back at Steve.

“I’m sorry about this,” Steve apologized for the sudden intrusion. “We need a place to lay low.”

“Every one we know is trying to kill us,” Nat said, still looking slightly dazed.

Sam glanced back at forth at the three of you before moving to the side. “Not everyone.”

“You two okay?” Steve asked as he came out of the bathroom, wiping his hands.

You sat beside Nat on the bed, squeezing your wet hair dry. “Yeah.”

Steve nodded, looking to Nat. “What’s going on?”

Nat glanced at you as you nodded at her before she turned back to Cap. “When I first joined S.H.I.E.L.D. I thought I was going straight.”

She paused, looking away before looking back to him. “But I guess I just traded in the KGB for HYDRA. I thought I knew whose lies I was telling but…I guess I can’t tell the difference anymore.”

“There’s a chance you might be in the wrong business,” Cap said, keeping the mood light.

“I owe you,” Nat said, her voice soft.

Steve shook his head. “It’s okay.”

You looked between the both of them, feeling like it’s their personal conversation. Standing up, you started to walk out but stopped as Steve grabbed your arm, giving you a look to stay put. You sighed, knowing what he wanted to talk about.

“If it was the other way around, and it was down to me to save your life, now you be honest with me, would you trust me to do it?” Nat asked, her voice serious.

You looked to Nat as Steve stared at her as well, his hand still not letting go of your arm.

“I would now,” Steve said as Nat looked surprised. “And I’m always honest.”

Nat smiled. “Well, you seem pretty chipper for someone who just found out they died for nothing.”

Steve took in a breath as he pulled you to sit back beside Nat, the redhead looking at you with an amused look. “Well, I guess I just like to know who I’m fighting.”

It was quiet for a second before Steve then turned to look at you. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were born in 1886?”

Before you could say anything, Sam came in, leaning on the doorway. “I made breakfast. If you guys…eat that sort of thing.”

Sam left the room soon after, Nat patted you on the shoulder before standing up and leaving as well. Steve crossed his arms over his chest and looked at you. “So?”

“So what?”

Steve gave you a pointed look, and you sighed. “God, please don’t talk about my age, I’m old enough to be your freaking mother dammit.”

Cap raised a brow and you waved your hand as if dismissing the subject.

“But why do you look so young?” He asked, frowning. “I don’t think you went under ice like how I did.”

“Even if I wanted to answer you, I can’t,” you replied.

“Why?”

“I-I can’t remember, all I know is that I was born on 20th April 1886 and that my entire bone structure is made by an almost indestructible metal called adamantium,” you explained.

Before Steve could say anything, Nat popped her head in. “Hi, sorry to disturb but breakfast?”

“Coming,” you said as you stood up, Steve following you. Turning to face him, you patted his chest with a smile. “You’re not the only old one here.”

Both of you headed to Sam’s kitchen and took a seat.

“So the question is, who in S.H.I.E.L.D. could launch a domestic missile strike?” Nat asked as she leaned against the kitchen counter.

“Pierce,” Steve said, his voice serious.

“Who happens to be sitting on top of the most secure building in the world,” you interjected.

“But he’s not working alone.” Steve stared of into the distance as he was thinking. “Zola’s algorithm was on the Lemurian Star.”

“So was Jasper Sitwell,” the redhead added.

You took in a breath as you looked at Steve and Nat. “So, the real question is, how do the three most wanted people in Washington kidnap a S.H.I.E.L.D. officer in broad daylight?”

“The answer is, you don’t,” Sam said as he walked out from somewhere and dropped a file on the table in front of you and Steve.

“What’s this?” Steve asked as he leaned forward.

“Call it a résumé,” Sam replied as you and Steve stood up, Nat coming over to pick up a photo of Sam with his para-rescue team, you and Steve looking at it as well.

“Is this Bakhmala?” Nat questioned before looking up and Sam. “The Khalid Khandil mission, it was you?”

Nat glanced at you two before looking back at Sam. “You two didn’t say he was a para-rescue.”

Steve took the picture from the redhead, seeing the man standing beside Sam in the picture. “Is this Riley?”

“Yeah,” Sam replied softly.

“I heard they couldn’t bring in the choppers because of the RPGs,” Nat said. “What did you use? A stealth chute?”

“No.” Sam stepped forward to pick up the file. “These.”

Steve opened the file and you peered in, raising a brow. “I thought you said you’re a pilot?”

Sam looked at you with a smile as he shook his head. “I never said pilot.”

“I can’t ask you to do this, Sam,” Cap said, shaking his head. “You got out for a good reason.”

“Dude, Captain America needs my help. There’s no better reason to get back in,” Sam replied, making you glance up at Cap with a smirk.

Cap smiled as he nodded, raising the file. “Where can we get our hands on one of these things?”

“The last one is at Fort Meade, behind three guarded gates and a twelve-inch steel wall,” Sam answered.

Steve looked at Nat who shrugged before looking at you, you shrugging as well. Looking back to Sam, he gave a small smile as he threw down the file. “Shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Tell me about Zola’s algorithm,” Cap demanded as he pushed Jasper Sitwell to the roof, you and Nat following behind as Cap cornered him to the edge of the building. With Cap’s plan, all of you managed to get Sitwell and you were sure that he’ll definitely talk.

“Never heard of it,” Sitwell replied, his breathing fast as he continued to walk backwards.

“What were you doing on the Lemurian Star?” Steve asked.

“I was throwing up, I get seasick,” Sitwell said, gasping as he nearly fell from the roof, Steve grabbing the lapels of his jacket to prevent him from falling.

“Is this little display meant to insinuate that you’re gonna throw me off the roof?” Sitwell smiled. “Because it’s really not your style, Rogers.”

“You’re right. It’s not,” Steve agreed, letting go of Sitwell and smoothening his sleeves. “It’s hers.”

Steve moved to the side as Nat kicked Sitwell off the roof, you watching him scream as he fell.

Nat turned to Steve. “Oh, wait. What about that girl from accounting, L-Laura…”

“Lilian. Lip piercing, right?” Steve asked, gesturing to his mouth for the lip piercing.

“Yeah, she’s cute,” the redhead smiled.

“Yeah, I’m not ready for that,” Steve said.

You raised a brow at Nat and she shrugged. “What?”

Suddenly, Sitwell’s screams got louder again as Sam in his falcon jet-pack suit with wings flew up, dumping Sitwell on the ground, before landing, his wings folding back. The three of you walked towards him and Sitwell immediately put his hand up as if trying to stop the three of you. “Zola’s algorithm is a program for choosing insight’s targets.”

“What targets?” Steve asked.

“You! A TV anchor in Cairo, the Undersecretary of Defense, a high school valedictorian in Iowa City, Bruce Banner, Stephen Strange, anyone who’s a threat to HYDRA,” Sitwell explained, making you frown. “Now, or in the future.”

“In the future? How could it know?” You asked, Sitwell looked at you and started laughing.

“How could it know?” Sitwell said as he stood up. “the 21st century is a digital book. Zola taught HYDRA how to read it.”

Sitwell looked at all your confused faces, before he started explaining. “Your back records, medical histories, voting patterns, emails, phone calls, your damn SAT scores! Zola’s algorithm evaluates people’s past to predict their future.”

“And what then?” Steve questioned.

Sitwell had a sudden look of realization as he looked away. “Oh, my god. Pierce is gonna kill me.”

“And what then?” Steve demanded as Sam reached out to grab the back of Sitwell’s suit making sure he won’t move away before letting go.

“Then the insight helicarriers scratch people off the list,” Sitwell said. “A few million at a time.”

“HYDRA doesn’t like leaks,” Sitwell said as you were seated in the middle of the car, Nat and Sitwell on either sides.

“Then why don’t you try sticking a cork in it?” You grumbled.

Nat shifted to look at Cap. “Insight’s launching in sixteen hours, we’re cutting it a little bit close here.”

“I know. We’ll use him to bypass the DNA scans and access the Helicarriers directly,” Steve replied.

“What? Are you crazy? That is a terrible terrible idea,” Sitwell voiced his disagreements when suddenly all of you heard a thud on the top of the car before the window on Sitwell’s side smashed open, an arm reaching through and pulling him out, throwing him to the next lane where he crashed into an oncoming truck.

You and Nat looked out in shock as the person who threw Sitwell out suddenly started shooting from the top of the car. You quickly pushed Nat to the front where Cap was as she did not have the healing factor that you had before reaching forward and pulling the break handle, watching as the man flew off the roof of the car and landed in the kneeling position, sliding as he used his what looks to be metal arm to stop himself.

All of you stared at him, watching as he slowly stood up and looked at all of you, a mask covering his face.

“Wow,” you muttered as Nat pulled out her gun but dropped it as a jeep smashed into the back of the car, pushing the car forward as Sam tried to steer it. The man with the mask flipped and landed on the top of the car.

Sam pressed down hard on the brakes but the man on top of the car suddenly smashed down, making a hole in the roof as he ripped off the steering wheel.

“Shit!” Sam shouted as Nat finally picked up her gun and started shooting at the roof.

The car started spiraling out of control, and as it was about to land sideways, Steve positioned his shield. “Hang on!”

He broke the door as Nat held him close, Cap grabbing Sam as Sam held your arm and pulled you close. The four of you on the car door sliding on the road.

As the four of you stood, the man with the mask shot at Steve who held his shield up, the impact of the big gun sending him flying. You, Nat and Sam ran off to find shelter from the bullets the HYDRA agents were shooting. You watched Nat run as the agents shoot at her.

You watched as the one in the mask jump down, the other agent hooking on to the car before jumping down as well. Before one of them jumped down, you unsheathed your claws and cut off his wire before grabbing the back of his neck and throwing him to the side where he smashed through a car. “Oops.”

Sam took down another one and managed to get his weapon, you both looked at each other before nodding. You looked down to see Steve using his shield to protect him from the bullets. Walking back a bit, you ran and jumped off the side to the road below, your claws unsheathed as you cut through one of the HYDRA agents. Seeing Cap take down the agent with the machine gun.

Steve looked up at Sam but Sam waved him off as he continued shooting the last one. “Go, I got this!”

You walked toward the last agent, you saw him switch his target from Sam to you.

“Y/N! What are you doing?!” Sam shouted but you just ignored him, gritting your teeth as you felt bullets going through you, it hurt like a bitch but you could hold up. You ran towards the guy and stabbed through him, watching him fall before you with a slight look of horror.

You sighed and looked down at the bullet wounds to see that the wounds were slowly closing up. Glancing up at Sam, you saw his amazed expression and smiled before heading off to find Nat and Steve.

Soon you saw Steve fighting the masked man, glancing around you saw Nat leaning against the side of a car, looking pained. You head towards her. “Nat! Are you alright?”

Nat looked you up and down before frowning. “I should be the one asking you that.”

“It’s nothing,” you replied, removing her hand from the wound to see that she got shot on her left shoulder. You quickly helped her to apply pressure on the wound before standing to see if Cap was okay. Steve flipped the masked man, causing his mask to fall.

The man stood up straight and turned to face Steve, shock written on both your faces.

“Bucky?” Steve said as his mind finally registered who the masked man was.

“Who the hell is Bucky?” The man replied as he raised his gun to shoot Steve but Sam came in time and kicked him.

Bucky was about to shoot again when Nat took a gun and shoot at a car beside him, causing a small explosion. When the smoke cleared, Bucky was gone.

You heard the sound of sirens wailing and saw agents coming out of vans and surrounding all of you.

“Drop the shield, Cap!” Rumlow ordered. “Get on your knees!”

Steve slowly placed his shield down as he held his hands up.

Rumlow pointed a gun at Steve’s head as he came behind Cap and kicked him in the back of his knees. “Down!”

You watched Steve still kneeling there as they seized all of you and dragged you to a van.

“It was him,” Steve spoke as all of you were in the van, metal cuffs on all your wrists. “He looked right at me like he didn’t even know me.”

“How’s that even possible? It was, like 70 years ago,” Sam said.

“Zola,” Steve muttered solemnly. “Bucky’s whole unit was captured in ’43. Zola experimented on him. Whatever he did helped Bucky survive the fall. They must have found him and-”

“None of that’s your fault, Steve,” you said.

Steve looked away. “Even when I had nothing, I had Bucky.”

Sam looked down at Nat’s shoulder before turning to the guards. “We need to get a doctor here. If we don’t put pressure on that wound, she’s gonna bleed out here in the truck.”

The guard sitting beside Sam suddenly took out an electric rod, making you look at him warily before he turned and zapped the guard beside him, kicking him in the head and knocking him out cold.

All of you looked to the guard in surprise as he reached up and started trying to pull the helmet off. “Ah. That thing was squeezing my brain.”

You felt the corners of your lips tugging up as you heard the familiar woman’s voice. Maria Hill looked at Sam before looking at you and Steve. “Who’s this guy?”

The five of you managed to get out and drove to a what seemed like an underground facility.

“GSW. She’s lost at least a pint,” Maria called out as the five of you walked in, you supporting Nat.

“Maybe two,” Sam interjected.

“Let me take her!” A man said, which you probably guessed was the doctor.

“She’ll want to see him first,” Hill replied, making all of you look at her.

Maria took all of you to a room, making all of you stop when you saw who was in the room. There lying on the bed was the Director himself, Nick Fury, lying there with and IV machine hooked up to him.

“About damn time,” Nick said.

Nat’s wound was being treated while Fury talked about the injuries he got during the first encounter with Bucky.

“Lacerated spinal column, cracked sternum, shattered collarbone, perforated liver and one hell of a headache,” Fury listed.

“Don’t forget your collapsed lung,” the doctor added.

“Let’s not forget that. Otherwise, I’m good,” Fury acknowledged.

“Oh aren’t you just one healthy fella,” you commented, smirking as you crossed your arms over your chest. Nick giving you a look which you shrugged in return.

“They cut you open, your heart stopped,” Nat said, sounding like she still couldn’t believe that he was there.

“Tetrodotoxin B. Slows the pulse to one beat a minute. Banner developed it for stress, didn’t work so great for him, but we found use for it,” Fury explained.

“Why all the secrecy? Why not just tell us?” Steve asked.

“Any attempt on the Director’s life had to look successful,” Hill replied.

“Can’t kill you if you’re already dead,” the Director elaborated. “Besides, I wasn’t sure who to trust.”

You looked to Nat to see her slightly hurt look before sighing and facing Fury, knowing that this was just the start.

Come back to me

Summary: You are captured by Hydra and they force you to undergo Winter Soldier conditioning that steals your memories and turns you into a mindless Soldier.

Warnings: Cussing, angst, sorta fluff.

Word Count: 2699 (NO REGRETS!!!!)

A/N: Yeah, another bucky story. Sorry not sorry. Bucky is bae af.

Being an avenger has its ups and downs. The ups, Public recognition, hanging out with the coolest people ever, making lifelong friends, saving people. The downs, the occasional near death experiance, bloody lip, broken arm, being kidnapped. Which brings me to my point. I have been kidnapped.

Bucky’s point of view.

Missions are always the same. We get a call about bad guys. We go after the bad guys. The bad guys have some sort of nefarious plan to either capture us or kill us. They underestimate how good we are and then loose.

So of course I thought today would be like every other mission. Steve, Nat, Y/N, and I would go through the front doors. Tony would take sky patrol with Vision and Wanda and Pam would be in the quinjet for backup. Easy peasy.

Steve and Nat went one way while Y/N and I went toward the prize. It was a group of files that was supposed to have all the locations of the last few hydra bases. We get that file we can finally finish hydra off. Finally.

Then the soldiers came. “You take out the soldiers. Ill get the file.” Y/N’s sweet voice called out.

I didn’t want her to go for it alone, but her way seemed to be the only one that made sense. So I let her go while the soldiers surrounded me.

“Capture if possible. Terminate if necissary.” One of them called.

As they advanced with their stun rods I braced myself. One of them got close enough and I swung my metal arm, hitting him across the head and sending him into another one.

Then all hell seemed to break out. People were flying at me, and almost easily I countered every single one of them. A well-placed knee. A punch here or there. It was almost like dancing.

Finally, they were all subdued and I could continue on to where Y/N was hopefully waiting for me. “On my way.” I said into the com on my ear.

“Buck, I have been compromised. Find the file and get the hell out of there.” Her voice broke the calm of my composure.

I broke into a run. “What do you mean compromised. Y/N!” I called into the com, pushing through the doors. There was no answer. “FRIDAY! Open her com. Let me hear her!” He directed the artificial intelligence that had access to all tech Stark could get his hands on.

“Bucky, what is happening?” Cap flooded my ear.

“Stay off the line, everybody, I need to hear this.” He commanded.

Her faint voice was traceable. “You guys are stupid. Honestly. You think Ill give you anything. Just kill me now and save the trouble.”

It sounded like the com wasn’t on her, but it was close by. I ran into the room the file was supposed to be in and found the back wall had been blown off and in the distance a hydra jet was dissapearing into the horizon.

“Stark, follow that damn jet!” He ordered.

“On it.” Stark said.

“Seriously Bucky. What the hell is going on?” Natasha’s voice found its way to my ear.

I started looking around frantic for the file. It probably had the base that they were taking Y/N to. “They got her. Hydra grabbed her. She hid the file though. We need to find it.”

Y/N’s voice chimed in again, only now it was an exhasperated laughed. “Jesus. You sure know how to use that thing. Hit me again. I dare you.” She was taunting whoever her captor was.

“Dumbass.” I muttered as I found the file. “FRIDAY, track her com and see if it is at any of these bases.” I demanded, putting the contents of the file in a weird electronic doodad that Nat and Y/N insisted on using.

In no time she had the location and we were on our way.

Nat tried to cheer me up but I wasn’t worried. I knew Y/N. She can handle herself.

Y/N’s point of view.

The man who was in charge of my ‘interogation’ landed a punch directly to my jaw. I spit out a puddle of blood and smiled. Sure it hurt, but the look on his face was worth it. “Come on. You hit like a girl. Hit me harder. You know you want to.” I teased.

“I know what you are trying to do agent. Your facade will be short lived. Soon you won’t be able to hold back your screams of pain.” The man had a heavy german accent.

I rolled my eyes. “Oh shut up hitler. Im starting to think you are all bark and no bite.” I teased, ignoring the stinging on my face.

The man was tired of my going on about how I could do this all day and all that. “Fine. No more mr. Nice torture. Now we bring out the big guns.” He said, snapping his fingers.

Two large men wheeled in a machine that looked quite familiar.

“Im sure you recognize this agent.” You said, pulling the chair you were in till it was under the machine. “I assume you have seen the Winter Soldier conditioning footage. You have until the machine warms up to tell me what I want to know.” He threatened, turning on the machine’s program.

Sure I was scared. Hell I was scared shitless, but I would never betray my people. “Hook me up and turn it on full power baby. This is just another weekend for me.” I said, instantly wishing I didn’t.

He shrugged. “As you wish.” He flipped the on switch again and the last thing I saw was the head piece lowering down over my eyes.

Bucky’s point of view.

“Can’t this thing go any faster?” Natasha asked, moving up to the cockpit to leave me alone.

The com was stil on. “I assume you have seen the Winter Soldier conditioning footage.” I heard loud and clear. The male’s voice was easier to hear then the Y/N’s. “You have until the machine warms up to tell me what I want to know.”

My eyes glazed over as I remember the pain. If her memory wasn’t of use to them, then they were going to wipe it. We needed to hurry up. “Tony, tell me you are close.” I said into the com.

“No man. No closer then you. I lost the jet a while back.” Tony’s voice said. “Your like five minutes away.”

“Hook me up and turn it on full power baby.” Y/N’s voice reached my ears.

“NO!” I jumped to my feet and looked out the window. “Fucking step on it.” I hissed to Pam, who was flying the jet.

Y/N/s screams were the only thing I could hear. Her cries for help. Pleading to let her die. It killed me.

A hand on my shoulder pulled me away. “We are here.”

Y/N’s point of view.

Pain. It was worse then anything I had ever felt before. Ive been shot, hit, electrocuted, and broken before but nothing like this. This was hell. Everything that ever hurt me before all at once times ten in my head. It was enough to make me crave death. At least if I was dead I couldn’t feel it anymore.

Then it was over. The pain was gone. I wanted to ask why it was gone but I couldn’t. I couldn’t say anything. I could only open my eyes. The room was blotchy and bright.

“Agent Y/L/N?” He asked. I tilted my head in confusion. Who was that. Why was he asking me? Who is this?

His smile was pleased. “Good. A blank slate.” He said to himself. “I am the commander. Your handler. You do exactly as I say. Do you understand?” He asked.

I nodded. If he said that was what was happening, who was I to say different.

“Stand up and show me what you can do.” He commanded. “Kill these men.”

I looked to the men on either side of me. They were larger then me, but if The Commander said I can do it then I guess I can.

In an instant they were both ready to attack me, but I was quicker. I delivered a knee to the one closest to me’s stomach before I threw my foot back to hit the other man in the nose. My foot finally came down on the first one’s foot, making him lurch forward, right into my waiting hand. I thrusted up as hard as I could, smashing into his nose and shattering it. The shards must have went into his brain, because when he went down he didn’t get back up.

The other man was watching in horror. He fell to his knees. “Please don’t kill me. Please.” He begged, his voice shaking.

I didn’t feel bad for him. I was told to kill him. He deserved to die. I had to kill him. So I walked over, pulled him up by the shirt and grabbed his throat with my hand. It was soft. His own hands clawed at the one that had him by the throat, and his nails tore at my flesh, but I ignored it. I only squeezed until I could feel my fingertips with my palm.

“Good work.” The commander complimented. “You nearly popped his head off. Not only are you agile and resilient, but you are incredibly strong too.”

There was a commotion outside the doors and the commander moved behind me. “I see your old friends have found you. Good. Kill the next person who walks through that door. That is an order.” He hissed.

I nodded. Old friends or not, it was my mission.

Bucky’s point of view.

I threw the guard against the door before tossing him to the side. Y/N was through that door. I had to see her. I kicked open the door and went inside.

She was standing tall, her eyes completly blank. Her right arm was bleeding from several scratches that littered her skin. Against one of the walls was the dreadful machine that had destroyed my life. There were two dead men in the room and hiding behind her was another man.

“Come on baby, Im breaking you out of here.” I said, holding out my flesh hand.

Her eyes didn’t register what I said. “Haha, you fool. You are too late!” The man behind her called. “Complete your mission!”

My heart dropped. Mission? They had used it on her. Before I could say anything to bring her out of it, her hand had grabbed my outstretched hand. Her fingers dug into the flesh with a strength I didn’t think she had.

Gracefully she spun and hit my body with full force, her other elbow dug into my ribs. “Y/N” I gasped as all my air left.

Her leg connected with mine, knocking them out from under me. I hit the ground hard and she was on me, her hands reaching for my throat.

My own arms were up, holding her hands still. “Y/N, stop. This isn’t you. You are not his pawn.” I tried to get through to her.

There was no reaction to her. Only her knees dug into my sides, making my drop my hands from hers and going after her knees. Big mistake. She pinned my arms down with her knees and wrapped her hands around my throat.

“Please.” I gasped with what little air I could.

Y/N’s point of view.

“Come on baby. You can do better then that.” Bucky’s voice taunted from above me. “Hit me. Come on.” He teased.

With determination, I threw my leg out in his direction and sweeped his legs out, making him crash hard beside me. I took that opportunity to roll over and climb on top of him. “I win.” I smiled.

His dark eyebrow arched and he smirked. “Did you?” He asked before throwing all his weight to one side, knocking me off. He put his knees on either side of me and pinned both my hands above my head with one hand. “I kinda feel like I might have won.” He said.

I rolled my eyes. “Sure you did.” I said.

His lips connected with mine and his hand left mine to trail down to the hem of my shirt.

I smirked and slammed my arm against his leg, moving it only a quarter of an inch, but it was enough to slide out from under him. Tackled him and this time wrapped my legs around his, holding his arms under my torso. “Dont get distracted old man.” I teased, letting my lips fall back to his.

My finger’s stretched over my target’s neck. Leaving him without breath. Seeing him like this wasn’t like with the others. I felt something. Something hurt.

“Finish him!” A very ugly voice called.

I looked at the man under me. His handsome face was turning a shade of blue. His eyes were bloodshot and his mouth was gaping, looking for air. My hand was keeping him from that air. All I had to do was move that hand. I could let him live. I could keep him from being in pain. I wanted to.

My hand loosened only slightly, and he took that opportunity. He used his weight to his advantaged and knocked me to the floor. He quickly pinned me and had my hands pinned with his legs like I had done. He was coughing, but all his senses were on keeping me pinned.

“Y/N. Please.” His voice was scratchy. “I know there is something left in you. Please.”

Bucky’s point of view.

She is still in there. I saw it. She let go. I know she did. I could get through to her. I could. “Baby. Don’t let this be you. Don’t be the winter soldier.” I pleaded. She squirmed under me, her eyes glazed over. “Doll, come on. I love you. Please.” I begged.

Y/N’s point of view.

“I love you.” I said, wrapping my arms around Bucky’s shoulders. He was flipping pancakes for us. “Why havent I ever said that before?” I asked, hopping up to the counter in front of him, blocking him from the pancake batter.

He shrugged. “Because you are an insensitive bitch.” He offered, making me laugh even harder. “Nah, I know you love me. You don’t have to say it.”

I shook my head and cupped his cheek with my hand. “But I want to say it. I want to say it all day long every day. I love you James Buchanan Barnes. You are my soldier.” I grinned ear to ear.

“And I love you Y/F/L/N. You are my best girl.” He said, putting the food stuff to the side and scooting up against me. His lips against mine sent chills down my spine.

Him on top of me sent chills down my spine. I hated being pinned, but something about right now, it was almost nice. I stopped fighting. I let him pin me.

“Y/N, baby. Listen to me. Whatever is going on in your head, you can end it.” The man’s voice finally reached me. “Come back to me. I love you. I need you. Come back to me baby.”

What is going on in my head. My target was right on top of me and I was just letting him be. I was just laying there. “Kill him!” My Commander’s voice found my ears.

Only I didn’t want to kill him.

Instead I smiled. My eyes met Bucky’s and I remembered just how much I loved him. “I love you too.” I said.

Bucky’s point of view.

“I love you too.” She recognized me. I let out a shaky breath. “Doll. You came back to me.” He said.

She scoffed. “I couldn’t stay away.” She said, leaning up and putting her lips on mine.

“NO! NO NO NO NO NO!” The german man’s voice pierced our moment.

I stood and glared at him. “You are so fucking dead.”
