Chapter 2
16 years later
Steve sighs as he watches Hunter play with his friends. Bucky has been missing ever since and Natasha and Clint were pissed. Those two go out every day looking for clues. Hunter asks about his mother every day. Every year Tony or Sam says that Steve has to claim a new first omega but every time Steve refuses. They will never understand how much Steve loves and misses Bucky. Steve still as hope and it is still as strong as ever. "Steve man you have to snap out of it." Sam says. Tony nods. "I am not picking a new first omega." Steve growls. "Why not? Bucky is not here. He is probably never coming back, you need to accept that!" Tony exclaims. "You don't know that." Steve says sternly. Tony groans. "Then where is he? Maybe we need a new leader!" Tony says. Steve growls. "Don't push me. You need to accept that I am not replacing Bucky." Steve seethed. "Well, tell me are you afraid that if you pick someone and you mate them that Bucky might come back! You are a coward!" Tony yells.
"My father is not a coward! And don't you ever say anything about my mother! We are not replacing him!" Hunter yells and stands in front of his father. Hunter has Bucky's stubbornness and doesn't take anyone's bullshit, but likes to help others like Steve. Hunter has Bucky's soft brown hair and Steve's eyes. In his wolf form he has both silver and copper mixed fur with blue green eyes. Tony puts his hands up and steps back. "And if you think that you are going to replace my mother, you won't! No one will!" Hunter yells. Steve puts his hand onto Hunter's shoulder. "Son calm down." Steve says. Hunter whips around and looks at him with such fire in his eyes. That was how Bucky looked at him when they first met. Steve still remembers every single word.
Steve was 17 years old and was hanging out with Sam. "Dude, have you seen the new omega?" Sam asks. Steve looks at him. "There's a new omega? Since when?" Steve asks. Sam laughs. "His family moved in this morning and oh look there he is." Sam says and Steve looks over and nearly passes out. The omega was beautiful, but was cornered by a- "Hey! Leave him alone!" Steve yells and grabs the collar of the alpha's shirt. "Get out of here!" Sam says and the alpha runs off. Steve turns to the omega. "Hey are you alright?" Steve barely finishes the question when the omega starts talking. "I could have handled it! I'm not useless you know!" The omega snarls. Steve puts his hands up. "Look I was just trying to help." Steve says.
"Just because I'm an omega doesn't mean I can't take care of myself! I don't need a alpha to solve my problems!" The omega hisses. Steve stares at the omega. Shit Steve thinks he's in love. "Don't you think I'm going to thank you or bloody hook up with you! You can go and get out of my face!" The omega finishes and storms off. "Wait!" Steve yells. "What are you doing!" Sam whispers. Steve ignores Sam. "Hey wait!" Steve yells again. "What!" The omega yells turning and staring at him with fire in his eyes. "My name is Steve Rogers, look I'm sorry. I think we started off with a bad foot here, let's restart please." Steve says. The omega sighs and grumbles. "My name is Steve Rogers, nice to meet you." Steve says handing his hand out for the omega to shake. The omega eyes it then takes it. "My name is James Buchanan Barnes but my friends call me Bucky." Bucky says. "Bucky huh? Short for Buchanan right?" Steve says. Bucky nods. "Yup." Bucky says. Bucky then starts to walk away. "Hey wait up!" Steve says and runs up to catch up with Bucky.
Steve sighs. "Come on Hunter, let's go home." Steve says and they both walk off.
Natasha and Clint walks up to Steve and Hunter. "Hey boys, you want to come with us?" Natasha asks. Hunter smiles and looks at his father. "Can we dad?" Hunter asks. Steve nods. "Let's go." Steve says and they change and run off. As they were running Hunter was smelling the air. Hunter whines to Steve. "I have a scent." Was what the whine said. Steve barks telling Hunter to follow it. Natasha tried getting Hunter out looking for Bucky more often because when a pup will always know who their mother is and can feel a pull to their mother and can find them. Hunter slows down and stops in front of a cave. They all shift back into human form. "This is where the secent is the strongest, it in this cave." Hunter says. They all slowly walk in. Because they have wolf sides to them, they can see well in the darkness just as well as they can see in the light.
They looked around and saw nothing. "Are you sure it's in this cave?" Clint asks. "Yes." Hunter says. They looked around some more. "Over here!" Natasha says then hears her talking softer. It's okay, we won't hurt you." Nataha whispers. They all moved towards Natasha and checks at what she was talking to. It was a wolf. However he was covered in blood and was whining. It was missing a front left leg. But they could still se the original colour of the wolf. It was copper with stormy blue grey eyes that looked so scared and in so much pain.
Wait a minute. This wolf looked so fimiliar. Steve was mentally whacking his brain for the name. Steve took a closer look at the injured wolf. It had a white stripe starting from the nose to what he believes the tail, there is so much blood it is kind of hard to tell. Wait it couldn't be. After all these years. Steve gasps once it hit his brain. "Bucky?"
