Chapter 8
"Steve!" Bucky shouts and gasps has the cold water hits his legs. Bucky just continues looking in each room. "Steve where are you!?" Bucky says desperately. "Bucky! Buck I'm in here!" Bucky hears Steve yell and bang his handcuffs against a pipe and Bucky follows the sound. Bucky walks in to see Steve. Bucky runs over to him and kisses him. "I'm so sorry. I should have known. I love you so much." Bucky whimpers and continues kissng his Alpha. Steve kisses back and smiles. "There should be a silver key in that key box over there." Steve says and Bucky searches through it. They are all brass!" Bucky says then checks the desk. "Brock must have taken it. Go get some help." Steve says and Bucky kisses Steve. "I promise I'm coming back." Bucky says and runs out of the room. "I will just stay here." Steve says nervously.
Bucky runs up the stairs and looks through the empty halls. "Hello! We need help! Hello anybody!" Bucky yells and continues mapping out areas. "Hello!" Bucky calls out and starts to panic. Just then a man runs by. "Wait sir, I need your help there is a man down there who need help." Bucky says but the other Beta grabs Bucky's arm and drags him away from Steve. "It is alright sir, we just need to head up on deck." The Beta says. "Where are you going. Steve is the other way. You are going the wrong way." Bucky says and start to fight against the Beta's grip. Bucky growls and punches the Beta and the Beta thumps aginst the wall with a bleeding nose. "To hell with you." Says the Beta and runs off. Bucky wants to cry. Nobody else was going to be down here, so how is Bucky going to help Steve? The lights turn off and Bucky just leans against the wall and squeezes his eyes shut. Bucky breathes turns fast and raspy until the lights turn back on. Bucky opens his eyes and he see the axe. Bucky breaks the glass and grabs the axe and rushes back to the staircase. Bucky stops when he sees the staircase. The water was half way up and Bucky shrugs off his jacket and dives in. Bucky squeaks from the cold but moves along and making sure he doesn't let go of the axe.
Bucky then enters the room and sees Steve sitting on a desk. Bucky holds up the axe. "Will this work?" Bucky asks. Steve smiles. "Yes but wait! Get a couple pratice swings on that cabinet over there." Steve says. Bucky sighs and swings the axe. "Good, now try to hit the same spot." Steve says. Bucky aims and brings it down but it was way off. "Okay, that is enough pratice come on." Steve says. Bucky stares at him scared. Bucky is totally going to chop Steve's hand off. Bucky makes a small noise in the back of his throat but aims. "Wait! Move your hands up a little." Steve says. Bucky's hands slide up a little and Steve nods. "Buck I trust you. I one hundred percent trust you." Steve says. "I hate to say but you are putting maybe a little too much trust into me but okay here we go." Bucky says. "Okay and one, two, three!" Steve says and squeezes his eyes shut has Bucky brings the axe down. The chain snaps but Steve was unharmed.
"Ha ha! I fucking love you! Now come on." Steve says and kisses Bucky then hops into the freezing cold water. "Holy shit that's cold. Holy shit!" Steve squeaks and squeals making Bucky laugh. Probably a bad time to laugh in this kind of situation but it was hilarious to see Steve squeal from the cold water that Bucky is totally now used to. They run out into the hallway but Bucky stops seeing the hallway that was only the way out under the water. "That was the way out." Bucky says feeling sad. "There must be another way. We will get out of this alive and together." Steve says and pulls Bucky into a passionate kiss. Steve pulls away then they both run off. They both stop when they see a couple of guards that has locked the gate. "Thay locked the gate. Are they going to kill everyone down here?" Bucky asks and looks at Steve with wide eyes.
"No. We are going to get them through." Steve says. Sam and Natasha sees them. "Steve!" Sam says and both Steve and Sam hug each other. "There is no other way they locked us down here." Sam says and Bucky gasps and doubles over into pain. "Buck!" Natasha says and touches his shoulder. "I'm fine! I'm going to be okay ahh." Bucky whimpers and falls to his knees. Steve touches Bucky's face and sees that Bucky was on the verge of tears. At this point the guards and some others have noticed this. "God damn it this Omega is fucking in pain!" Yells an Omega. Bucky squeezes his eyes shut and screams out once more. Steve picks Bucky up right away and they walk up the stairs. "Let us through. Please." Steve beg. The guard opens the gates and the small group walk through. Natasha knocks both of the guards out and the others run through. Steve carries the whimpering Omega. Sam sees Bruce. "BRUCE! We need your help over here." Sam yells. Bruce sees the Omega and was by his side in an instant. Bruce asks questions right away. "Bucky, where does it hurt the most?" Bruce asks.
"The stomach and chest area." Bucky manages to whisper and his muscles tenses even more. Bruce prods around and frowns. "Bucky I need you to relax." Bruce says softly and Bucky's body slowly relaxes and Bucky just feels so tired. Bruce prods around then the look of reliazation comes across his face and eyes. "We need to get him off this ship now. Bucky is pregnant." Bruce says. Everyone looked shocked. Steve nods but then sets Bucky sets down has Bucky struggles to get to his feet and he shakes his head frantically. "No! You promised we will get out of here alive. Remember if you jump, I jump. I'm with you till the end of the line?" Bucky says. "Bucky get on the boat." Steve says. "Yes James get onto the boat. I have an arrangement for myself and Rogers here. We will get of on the other side of the ship." Alexander says. Alexander notices that Bucky was shivering and Alexander takes his coat off and wraps it around Bucky's shoulders. Bucky stares at Steve. "See. I will see you in New York." Steve says. Natasha gets in the boat and grabs Bucky's hand. Bucky slowly but surely gets on.
Bucky looks at Steve has the boat lowers. "I can see that you are a good liar." Alexander notes. "Is there really an arrangement?" Steve asks. "Oh there is. See Steve I will always win." Alexander says. Bucky looks over at Natasha but then looks up at Steve. Bucky then reliazes everything. Steve is lying to him. Steve is not going to get off and he will die. Bucky stares at Natasha and she squeezes his hand. Bucky looks down but then shakes his head. "No. This is wrong. I am not going to raise my child on my own." Bucky says. Natasha smiles. "Go. Don't let him get away." Natasha whispers. Bucky looks around then sees the ledge. Now or never Barnes. Bucky nods at Natasha then jumps and lands perfectly onto his feet with ease then starts running. "Bucky!" Bucky hears Steve yell. Bucky runs inside and Steve runs down the staircase with the clock on it and they met up halfway.
"Buck! What the hell were you thinking. You are so stupid. Why! Why did you do it?" Steve asks while kissing Bucky. "I couldn't. I just couldn't. I jump you jump. Also I am not raising our child without you. I just can't do it." Bucky says with tears streaming down his cheeks. Steve just pulls Bucky closer and laughs weakly. "God I love you." Steve says. "I love you too." Bucky whispers. "You are fucking pregnant!" Alexander yells. Bucky froze and he just had enough. "Yes and it is with the man I truly love." Bucky snarls. Alexander gts angry and yanks Brock's pistol out and takes a shot. "If I can't have you, then nobody can!" Alexander yells and aims at Bucky. Steve and Bucky runs. Bullets were landing everywhere near them but they keep running. Soon Alexander runs out of bullets then makes a half ass poor attempt of throwing the gun at them.
Both Steve and Bucky run and ended up in a hallway. "We need to get back to the surface." Bucky says. Steve nods and stops when he hears a child screaming. Bucky stops and looks at Steve. "We can't leave him there. He will die!" Bucky says and Steve nods.
