Sentinel

Bucky Barnes, renowned guardian thanks to his impressive skills, loses more than just an arm in a particularly unusual encounter with Strigoi. He loses his charge's life too and Bucky has always loved Steve like a brother. This is how he finds himself at the Academy. Tony Stark has always led something of an unusual life thanks to his Royal lineage, but thanks to his jackass father turning Strigoi willingly he's lost all that status. And to make things worse he has unusual abilities that aren't linked to the usual elemental magic Moroi can tap into. Things are only really made worse when Strigoi attacks become more frequent and more unusual.Rhodey has spent his entire life training to protect Moroi, and more specifically he only has a desire to protect his Moroi. Tony is his best friend and his charge and Rhodey would do whatever it took to keep him safe, even if he's mostly saving Tony from himself.

I've been rereading Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy series and I love the world building so I decided to play with it and the Avengers. I don't think you'll have had to read the series to understand this- I've done a decent job setting things up so people who haven't read the series know what's going on. If you have read the series you'll have a lot more insight into where pieces of this story is going. I've borrowed plot points from the movies I have in the tags and the VA series though the exact plot is still somewhat original (I've borrowed more from VA than the movies, I've just combined the events to make things different).Anyways, there is some references to drug and alcohol abuse throughout this story so be aware of that. And also Bucky is 23 and Tony is 17 (turning 18 in the story at some point) so also be aware of that. Also I'm not entirely certain where this is headed relationship-wise so those tags may change but I doubt it, just know that is a thing that may happen.Well, now that I think I've covered everything in this monster note I hope you like it!
