Shadow Of Darkness: Avengers x Male Reader

Chapter 19: Bucky

2nd Person POV

While Natasha distracted the Hydra agents with a few pistol shots, you ran out from under the bridge, sliding behind the overturned bus. The men on the bridge started firing back at Nat and you could only assume she would've backed off to take cover.

You raised a hand to the roof of the bus, closing your fingers inwards and causing the metal to slowly creak and tear away. It was a difficult thing to do compared to shadow manipulation, you'd say that for sure.

Jumping into the bus through the now torn open roof, you found Steve laying across the floor as a few other passengers slowly got up to leave through the opening you just made.

"Steve, I swear." You muttered, walking over and putting a hand on his shoulder. You gently shook him and his eyes opened. With a cough the man crawled to his feet with your help.

"(Y/N)." He said in acknowledgment.

"Yep. Your guardian angel." You patted a hand down his coat to free it of debris. Before either of you got a chance to rest, something in your mind pulsed in a warning. You immediately grabbed Steve by the arm, much to his confusion.

"What are you doing?" He asked as you pulled him out of the bus, dropping to the ground with him as a rain of bullets suddenly burst through the vehicle. You were buying a lottery ticket after this, considering how lucky you were to get out of that.

"Saving your ass for- what is it? The third time? Fourth time?" You said with a groan as you got back up. In the distance you could see Natasha running further down the street. The Winter Soldier following behind her. "Well, isn't that just lovely."

"I got these guys. Go." Steve pushed you in the direction of the two. Was he stupid? He didn't even have his shield, it was literally in the line of fire of the other Hydra men. You weren't to be held accountable if Captain America died today.

"Fine. You better get your ass over there when you're finished." You ran off after the crazy metal armed Anakin Skywalker wannabe. That made sense, right? You think Anakin had a metal arm...

Civilians fled from the area as the Winter Soldier stormed ahead through the streets. He had lost sight of Natasha, but she couldn't have gotten far. That thought was proven true as he approached an abandoned car.

The faint sound of the woman's voice came from behind another car near the sidewalk, making him pause. He unbuckled a grenade from his belt, crouching down and rolling it under the car ahead of him and towards the woman. He then stood back up and aimed his rifle at the car, ready to finish the job if she survived.

Unbeknownst to him, it was only a recording. Though that news didn't arrive until the car was blown sky high and he stared, realising he had been tricked.

Natasha lunged out from her hiding spot behind him, kicking the rifle from his hands and grappling around his neck. She extended a metal wire in her hands to try asphyxiate the soldier, but he slammed her back into a car before throwing her off of him.

Natasha hit another vehicle with a hard thud, falling to the ground as the Winter Soldier picked his gun back up. Before he could shoot her, you just so happened to find the two.

You grabbed the man's flesh arm, jerking it upwards as his spray of bullets only succeeded in piercing the air rather than Natasha. Well, you successfully got his attention. Now what was the rest of the plan?

Natasha got up to her feet and continued running as you punched the man in the head. The Winter Soldier's head shot back before he turned to you and kicked you back a few steps. There was something off about him. You could feel it.
