Chapter 4
The soldier he has gotten away. He knew the man on the bridge. He wasn't sure how but he did.
He has been away from it all for a day. A single day as he hides out in an abandoned wearhouse in New York.
He felt sick and dizzy and dissociated more then normal. He hasn't eaten or drank anything as when he tried to he couldn't keep it down. It wasn't uncommon. He normally couldn't when he was allowed to eat and wasn't just given nutrition through an IV drip.
The soldier felt cold but he knew he wasn't. It was still late December. Snow on the ground outside.
The soldiers senses were dulled. He thought that he might be dieing. He hasn't had the medication since yesterday. It was always the first thing after they woke him up.
Then he felt a hand on his shoulder. Je was curled in the corner legs to his chest arms wrapped around them head in his legs leaning against the corner of the wall.
He looked up quickly. The action making the dizziness worse.
The man from the bridge standing infront of him. It was his hand on his shoulder.
"Bucky?" The man said.
The soldier didn't understand this was the second time he called him that. who the hell is Bucky?
The soldier couldn't make the words come out of his mouth. Just a sharp gasp.
The man looked sad and worried. As he put a hand on the soldiers face. "God I thought you were dead Buck." He said so softly.
But not fake softness. It was real. It was so comforting and the soldier didn't know why.
"I've got you now. Your alright." The man said pulling the soldier to his chest. Only then did the soldier realize that his head must have been bleeding. There was a wet spot in the man's shirt. But when he pulled back to touch his face. To find the source of the blood there was none.
Just water on his cheeks that continues to run down. He didn't know why. He was so confused. Then he realized that he was thinking. And from there he was spiraling.
He couldn't breath he felt more sick but had nothing in him ti throw up. Was dizzy and what ever was happening was making it worse. He couldn't see. He didn't notice that he closed his eyes.
He leaned in to Steve's chest. He couldn't really hear the man. Couldn't really feel him there but he knew that he was there. And that was enough.
"Steve?..... help"
The soldier said it didn't know that he said anything. Didnt know why he said that name but he knew it was right. He knew that he knew the man. He knew that this was his steve.
He was weak. He knew that weakness was bad. But he couldn't help it.
He doesn't know how long it took to calm down. But when he did he thought that the man that was in front of him would have been gone or he would have woken back up in Hydra.
But that didn't happen. He was so exhausted but he didn't want to sleep. He couldn't sleep.
"I've got you. Your ok now Jamie. Shhh its alright now. They can't hurt you now." Steve said into the soldiers hair. Pressing soft kisses to the top of his head.
As the soldier was about to fall asleep he heard a noise. It sounded like gun fire. Cars. And maybe an explosion. Then he saw her.
For the first time in years he saw her.
Natalia.
She came up to cap "We have just about cleared the street. But they need you out there more then me right now. The boys are taking heavy fire. I'll stay with James" she explained pating Steve's should.
"OK, ill keep you updated" steve says as he started to pull away from the soldier. Who tryed to stop him. But was weak and shocked at seeing Natalia again. He didn't try to hard or it didn't feel like it.
"I will do the same. Now go Cap" and steve did he left and Natalia sat infront of the soldier.
"Its been a while hasn't it." She places the back if he hand to his four head. "You don't look to good James. You running a fever to. Are you hurt any?" She asked noticeibg the rips in his clothes and the blood on him. It was dried blood so she wasn't sure if he heald already or not.
"Na-Natalia? H-how?"
"Its a long story, now are you hurt?"
"Not sure"
"Who is B-Bucky?"
"Thats you. The real you. Not the you they made you. Your away from them now. They can't hurt you we won't let them"
She gently touched a bloodied spot of his side. There was a small cut there. And a few others littered his body.
"Its been a really long time. I'm glad your ok" she says pressing a hand to his face.
The gun fire git close to the door. Then as Bucky saw a man fall just in the door way he wasn't in the wear house.
They were at a Hydra base. Him and a few other men. All in the same uniform. Steve was the only one not wearing the unifor. He was wearing the captain America costume. His Sheild in hand.
"James....James you alright?"
"Yea ill be fine"
Then he was back in the wear house. He didn't know what just happened but he knew one thing.
James Buchanan Barns Sargent of the 107th infiltration aka the Howling camandos.
Then he passed out.
