Chapter 8
The gunshot rings into Bucky's ears and nothing but cold runs through his veins as a body hits the ground. Bucky gasps and sees that the white wolf, his mother falls to the ground whining in pain. "NO!" Bucky yells and runs to her side. "Momma!" Bucky wails and puts the wolf's head onto his lap. Phil looks up to see that it was Howard who shot the gun and was smirking with the gun propped up onto his shoulder so it was aiming upwards towards the sky. "I told you that they were going to be hunted down." Howard says. "Dad! What the hell! Why did you do that!" Tony yells.
Howard shrugs and aims at a younger wolf. Bucky yelps and growls low in his throat and the younger wolves run into the cave for saftey. Howard curses. Bucky whimpers and pets the white wolf's head. "No momma you can't leave me. You promised." Bucky whimpers and watches as red spreads through her beautiful white fur that is so soft and warm. Bucky looks into her eyes. She opens and closes her eyes slowly. She whimpers and slowly closes her eyes. And her chest stops rising. She was dead. Bucky stares at her. "Momma wake up, wake up." Bucky says slowly. Bucky sobs and hugs her neck. "I can't lose you too." Bucky whispers and sobs into her.
Phil punches Howard and grabs the gun. Everyone else looks down. Maria stares at the boy. Bucky looked at her if she had betrayed him and planned this all along. The two younger wolves comes out and howls for the fallen loved one. Bucky sniffles and whines. The two younger ones nuzzles into Bucky. "It's okay, I will protect you." Bucky says to the younger two. Howard chuckles. "No you won't. " Natasha smacks him. Hward hisses in pain. Bucky shakes and cries along with the wolves, mourning for their dead mother. Steve kneels down beside Bucky and touches Bucky's back. "Bucky I am so so sorry." Steve whispers. Bucky shakes his head. "Did you planned this?" Bucky hisses. Steve was taken back from Bucky's sudden anger.
"No, we would never." Steve whispers. Phil sighs. Howard takes a chance and calls out. More men hop out and throws nets onto the two younger wolves. Bucky gasps and grabs a thick piece of wood and smack one of the men in the head with it, successfully knocking the man down. Bucky yells. "Leave my family alone!" Bucky yells. Howard grbs Bucky and hits Bucky in the head. Bucky was dizzy and tried to get out of his grip. "Don't worry, you will be givn to child services and your supposed family will die." Howard says. Bucky gasps and whimpers. Bucky was too wak to do anything. Bucky whines and calls out but tge rest of the group was tied down. When did they get tied? Bucky questions. Bucky was passing out. Bucky could tell, he was just so tired. Bucky whines and tries to fight bu his body just won't move.
Bucky whines again. Bucky's breathing was slower too. Did they drug me? Bucky questions. Bucky had read this book about drugs and alcohol and was horrified to even think about it. Bucky flutters his eyes and finally drifts off to a black dream.
