Another long one coming at y'all, (pause). Two more chapters and we're off with our boy band.
After having his talk with Senator Stern, Jasper Sitwell's phone suddenly rings in his pocket. He pulls it out and it reads "Alexander Pierce".
A little shocked, he turns to his guards and tells them to bring the car around. He then puts the phone to his ear,
"Yes, sir?"
"Agent Sitwell, how was lunch? I hear the crab cakes here are delicious." Sam responds through the phone, catching Sitwell off guard.
"Who is this?" "The good looking guy in the sunglasses, your 10 o'clock."
Sitwell starts to scan the area around him, desperately trying to find the mystery man behind the phone.
"Your other 10 o'clock......there you go." Sitwell spots Sam sitting next to a table with sunglasses. With a smirk as he raises his glass.
"What the hell do you want?" Jasper sternly lets out as he stares at Wilson, "You're gonna go around the corner to your right. There's a gray car two spaces down. You and I are gonna take a ride."
Thinking this is a joke, Sitwell doesn't buy it,
"And why would I do that?"
"Because that tie looks rrreaaallly expensive, and I'd hate to mess it up."
This causes Sitwell to look down at his tie, which now as a red dot in the middle of it. He immediately looks around madly, trying to spot the sniper.

Sitwell is pushed through a door on the roof of a building. Steve walks behind the staggering Sitwell,
"Tell me about Zola's algorithm."
Agent Sitwell frantically puts his glasses back on as he walks back, "N-never heard of it."
Natasha also walks next to Steve, ready to do what's necessary to get this bald fuck to talk.
"What were you doing on the Lemurian Star?"
"I was t-throwing up. I get s-s-seasick." Sitwell steps back a bit too much, causing him to hit his foot on the edge of the building and gasping.
Steve grabs his collar to prevent him from falling and pulls his closer up to him.
Sitwell catches Steve buff and smirks,
"Is this little display meant to insinuate that you're gonna throw me off the roof? Because it's really not your style, Rogers."
"Hmph....you're right." Steve then takes his hands off Sitwell and straightens his jacket,
"It's his." Sitwell looks at the Captain with confusion as he only sees Steve and Nat on the roof.
"Who?" The door behind them suddenly opens, and
Y/N, with his armor and swords, walks out with his mask over his face.
Jasper widens his eyes and starts to stutter,
"W-w-Wait! Get him away f-from me!" Sitwell starts to move to the side but Cap holds him in place.
"Aww, what's the matter Sitwell? You ain't miss me?" Y/N gleefully yells out as he continues to walk towards the scared agent.
"I believe you two have some catching up to do." Steve whispers to Sitwell as Y/N soon approaches them and undoes his mask. Sitwell whimpers as Y/N wears a creepy smile along his face.
"You still look as beautiful as ever, you shiny-headed fuck." Y/N then grabs Sitwell's jacket and delivers a punch across his face, who screams from the impact.
"Lets take a walk shall we?" Y/N then applies chakra to his feet and walks up the the edge of the building with Sitwell in his grasps. He then walks down along the side of the structure.
"W-what are you d-AAAAAHHHH!" Sitwell screams as Y/N holds Sitwell upside down while standing on the side of the building.
(Imagine how terrified you would be. And don't lie, you would be.)
"Don't worry" Y/N "assures" Sitwell, "I wont be the one falling here, pig-face. How's the view from down there?"
Sitwell does nothing but continue to whimper and let out the occasional "Help me!"
"I've always wondered if pigs could fly." Y/N then looks down at Sitwell, "lets test that shall we?"
Y/N then lets go of Jasper's leg, which in turns causes the agent to fall straight down. Y/N swipes his hands as he walks back up the side and back to Steve and Natasha
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" The three of them hear as they stand next to each other
"Oh, wait. What about that girl from Accounting, L-L-Laura....." Nat starts off as she tries to remember the name of a certain girl for Steve.
"Lillian. Lip piercing, right?"
"Yeah, she's cute."
"Yeah.....I'm not ready for that." Steve lets out as the three of them hear Sitwell screams rise up, and he comes back up with Sam. Equip with a fancy new harness with Wings.
"Awesome..." Y/N lets out as the three of them walk towards the scampering Sitwell.
"Zola'a algorithm is a program!" Sitwell yells out as he sticks his hand out, "for choosing..... Insights targets."
"What targets?" Steve asks sternly, "You!......A Tv Anchor in Cairo, the Under secretary of Defense, a high school valedictorian in Iowa City......Bruce Banner, Stephen Strange..... and even....."
Y/N, growing impatient, steps forward a bit,
"Even who?" Sitwell then stares at the ground a bit before looking up, "even You."
"Me?" Y/N points to himself in mild surprise,
"Well uh....not that it's surprising."
"It-it targets anyone who's a threat to HYDRA. Now, or in the future."
Steve gives off a confused look, "the future? How could it know?"
Sitwell laughs a bit at the question,which earns him a kick to the stomach from Y/N, "aint shit funny about this."
Sitwell grabs his stomach in pain before continuing,
"How could it not?" He then starts to stand up,
"The 21st Century is a digital book. Zola taught HYDRA how to read it." He starts to look around at everyone, hoping they would catch on to what he's insinuating.
"Your bank records! Medical histories, voting patterns, emails, phone calls, hell even your damn SAT scores!"
"Lord knows I'm not a threat base off my scores, shit was abysmal" Y/N smirks to himself
"Zola's algorithm.....evaluates people's past, to predict their future."
"And what then?" Rogers lets out, Sitwell has a distressed look on his face, "oh, my god. Pierce is gonna kill me."
"What then?!" Steve urgently asks as Nat pushes Sitwell forward as he steps back.
"T-then the Insight helicarriers scratch people off the list. A few million at a time."
"Great!" Y/N breaks the tension as he flings his arms up, "Just what we need, another catastrophe that endangers millions."
__________
The group then take a car and drive along the highway towards the Triskelion. Sam takes the wheel, Steve in the passenger seat. Y/N is in the middle of Nat and Sitwell.
"You know HYDRA doesn't like leaks!" Sitwell says, causing Sam to look in the rear view at him,
"Then why don't you try sticking a cork in it?"
Nat then scoots up a bit to talk to Steve,
"Insights launching in 16 hours. We're cutting it a little bit close here."
"I know." Steve responds, "We'll use him to bypass the DNA scans and access the helicarriers directly."
"What?!" Sitwell ask surprised at that notion,
"Are you crazy? That is a terrible, terrible idea-
THUD!
A sound is heard on the cars top as an arm breaks through the glass next to Sitwell. He screams as he is pulled out the car and ran over a semi-truck.
Y/N and Nat widen their eyes as they spot a boot above them, Nat throws herself to the front and into Steve's lap as the mystery man fires shots into the car from above.
Steve then takes the gearshift and puts it into park, causing the car to stop as the 4 of them look ahead.
"Damn, this guy again." Y/N sneers as they see The Winter Soldier slide along the road. Nat pulls out her pistol and aims it forward. Before she gets a shot off, a truck rams into the back of their car, pushing them forward.
The assassin jumps up and holds onto the top of the car, as the vehicle continues to get pushed by the truck behind them.
Y/N takes out his sword and stabs up into the roof, causing the Soldier to get nicked in his forearm. He then smashes his metal hand threw the roof and rips the steering wheel off.
This causes the car to spin out of control, and taking the challenge, Y/N crawls to the front,
"Everyone, grab onto me." They each grab hold of Y/N as he does a various set of handsigns,
"Earth Style: Hardening Dome Jutsu!!"
A ton of Rock forms around the four of them as they fall out the right side of the car, the dome cracks a bit as they impact against the road.
The Winter Solider jumps onto the top of the truck and waits for it to stop before leaping off.
Y/N groans as he dispels the rock surrounding the four of them. They quickly get up as they see the Assassin being handed a missile launcher from a henchmen.
Cap pushes Nat and Y/N out the way as he shields himself from the projectile. Unfortunately, it blows him back and down towards the Main Street, crashing into a bus filled with citizens.
Hydra agents start to fire towards Y/N, Natasha and Sam as the three take cover. Romanoff fires back while shielding herself, Sam continues to duck under cover and Y/N takes a deep breath as he tries to think of the best way to get the upper hand.
He widens his eyes as the Winter Soldier aims his launcher at Natasha, he then slams his palms together,
"EARTH STYLE: EARTH GOLEM JUTSU!!"
A humanoid creature made of rock forms in front of Natasha and grabs the missile at the last second. It then twists the missile around and chucks it towards the masked assassin.
The metal armed soldier moves his head as the middle sails past him and explodes. Nat jumps over a railing in the street as the agents continue to fire. Having been tired of taking cover, Y/N takes out his silver-coated sword and bursts towards the unaware Soldier.
With a yell, Y/N stabs his sword into the Winter Soldier's shoulder as the masked assassin growls in pain. Y/N then quickly turns towards the henchmen and throws a pellet at them, covering them in a thick cloud of smoke. They then glare at each before Y/N flips the killer down into the street, who crashes on the top of a car.
He forms his famed mask over his face as he turns around and quickly reacts as he sees a Agent aim another missile launcher at his face. He jumps over and with the explosion behind him, lands perfectly on his feet.
SUPERHERO LANDING
He looks around suspiciously as the Winter Soldier seemingly disappears. By his guess, to go find Natasha. Y/N angrily activates his Sharingan as he grips his weapon a bit tighter.
The Winter Soldier arms himself with another gun as he stops when he hears radio chatter. He slowly ducks behind a car and takes out a small silver explosive ball, he rolls it ahead.
Before it explodes, he suddenly turns around as Y/N jumps in and slashes at his metal arm. Winter Soldier attempts to hit the teen with the butt of his gun, but Y/N moves his head and grabs the weapon instead.
They grapple a bit before the Soldier slams Y/N against the car as they glare at each other.
"So, strong and silent type huh?......I dislike you already." Y/N grits out, causing the assassin to draw his fist back and aims for Y/N's head, but instead goes through a car window.
L/N headbutts the hydra hitmen and shoulder-rushes him away from him. The Winter Soldier then pulls out a elongated knife, to wish Y/N smirks to behind his mask.
"Be my guest then...." He then swirls his own sword in front of him and they rush each other. Back and forth, they lunge and parry each other. Trying to find an opening, Y/N ducks,jumps up and lands a crushing knee to his opponents chin, causing them to stagger back.
The Hydra soldier quickly aims a firearm, but Y/N rolls out the way. Suddenly, Nat appears and kicks the gun from the metal armed assassin. She climbs on his shoulders and wraps his throat with wire.
"What a woman...."
Y/N then clears his head as he sees the masked man throw Nat across a car, he squints his eyes as he dashed towards him and delivers a swift double kick.
Angered, the Soldier goes back to hand to hand, failing to land a hit as the teen avenger swiftly dodges each both. But at one point, Y/N loses his footing and is caught in the chin by a metal fist, causing him to fly back and into a building.
"Heh." He smirks as he wipes a bit of blood from his lip, as the Soldier approaches him, he does three handsigns rapidly
His hand charges with electricity and he thrusts it forward, CHIDORI SHARP SPEAR!
He uses shape transformation as a electric spear quickly sprouts out and lodges itself into the Winter Soldier's shoulder. Y/N widens his smile as he sees his opponent shake in pain.
But before Y/N can place his other hand on his arm to finish the job, a rocket suddenly comes toward him and impacts into his chest, lodging him into the building.
Numerous henchmen walk through the street, heavily armed as one smirks for seemingly
"Blowing up" HYDRA's number one target. The Winter Soldier staggers a bit as he tends to his injured shoulder.
Romanoff then appears again and throws a disk at his metal arm, disabling it briefly as she lands a hard elbow and kick to his chest. The assassin doesn't let up as he rips the disk from his metal appendage and rolls it around.
"Ooohhh man...." Y/N groans out as he shakes off the flames around him. He looks down and notices his armor is mostly on, taking the brunt of the impact,singed and torn apart. He leaps down and scares the daylights out of the henchmen as they though they most definitely took the Titan out.
"Hn....not bad at all. How about a little of this...." He then slams his palms together
"FIRE STYLE: GREAT FIRE ANNIHILATION!!!!"
Y/N breaths out a literally sea of flames from his mouth, which envelop the screaming group of hydra men. Y/N soon expels the flames, revealing charred corpses on the ground.
"I like my bacon extra crispy anyway." He then looks around as he hears a sniper shot ring out and a small yell. Worried, he runs towards the noise as he sees Captain America and The Winter Soldier going face to face.
Still looking for Nat, he checks behind cars, sidewalks, or anywhere where the red head could be. He then spots her leaning against the car and rushes towards her, "Nat!" He brings her in with a tight hug, which causes her to wince.
Y/N notices this and backs off a bit, "Nat...what's wr-" he then sees a bullet wound deep in her shoulder and widens his eyes.
"No, no, no.....shit!" Before he can tend to it, Nat stops him. "S-stop. We.....we need you to get out of here?"
"Wait what? Why?" He stands confused, Nat then grips both his hands, "They're coming.....and I won't allow them to take you in again."
"I can fight them off! WE can fight them off!" He tries to reassure her as she moves away and picks up a rocket launcher.
Y/N then looks as she aims it at the now unmasked Winter Soldier, causing a huge explosion in its wake.
She breaths heavily as she drops the weapon. Sirens are suddenly heard everywhere. Black SUVS and choppers surround the area. Cap and Sam stand idle as they have no other escape routes.
Natasha frantically looks around before bring Y/N closer to her, "Did you hear me? You have to go!"
"But Nat-" "JUST go." She then brings their foreheads together as they close their eyes in goodbye. They back away as Y/N walks away and in the blink of an eye, seemingly disappears, and Natasha continues to lean against the van.
Numerous soldiers and agent hop out of their vehicles, pointing their weapons at Cap, Sam, and Nat.
"Drop the shield, Cap! Get on your knees!" Rumlow screams out as he has his gun pointed at Steve's head. Steve slowly drops his shield with his hands up, with Sam doing the same.
"Get down, get down! Get on your knees!" He continues to yell out as he kicks the back of Rogers knee.
Rumlow then looks around and spots Natasha in cuffs, along with Wilson, but no sign of Y/N.
"You have eyes on the kid?" He speaks into his comms,
"Negative, no sign of him in the area."
"Well keep looking!" He then looks down at Steve,
"Where's the kid?" He is met with silence as Cap doesn't even seem to hear him.
"WHERE THE HELL IS THE KID??!!!" Rumlow screams as he tightens the restraints on Cap's wrists. Rumlow then grits his teeth in anger as they don't have a hold of the one person Pierce wants the most.
___________
"It was him..." Steve whispers as him, Natasha, and Sam are in the back of a truck, accompanied by two agents.
"He looked right at me.....like he didn't even know me" he continues to stare at the ground, still in disbelief that his childhood friend, Bucky Barnes, is still alive.
"How is that even possible?" Sam asks, "It was,like, 70 years ago."
"Zola. Bucky's whole unit was captured in '43. Zola experimented on him. Whatever he did helped Bucky survive the fall. They must have found him and...."
Natasha seems in and out of it, as she has a dazed expression on her face. With most of her inner thoughts on how Y/N is holding up, praying to whatever gods are above, to keep him safe.
"None of that's your fault, Steve." She faintly says as Steve looks to the side,
"Even when I had nothing, I had Bucky."
Sam then looks at Natasha next to him, with a bullet wound oozing blood from her shoulder.
Wilson then looks at one of the soldiers with them,
"We need a Doctor in here. If we don't put pressure on that wound, she's gonna bleed out here in the truck."
Suddenly, a electric spear flies out from the back of the truck and stabs through the head of one of the soldiers. Everyone jumps up in surprise as the soldier spasms uncontrollably.
The spear then fizzes out as the soldier drops on the floor, dead on the spot. One of the two doors gets ripped out, and Y/N, with his mask, appears on the other side breathing heavily. He then drops his illusion as he looks down at the dead soldier.
"Please....please tell me I didn't accidentally kill Ms.Hill there."
The other soldier then takes their helmet off and reveals to be Agent Hill.
"You cut it close their kid......" She breaths out as she straightens her hair, "Ah. That thing was squeezing my brain."
Y/N then goes in and sits next to Nat as she leans herself on his shoulder,
The space is filled with silence for a bit, as Y/N found a way in, but didn't think about how to get out with everyone. Luckily, Hill has had idea.
The young Avenger start to look around at everyone.
"Well, not everyone thank me at once......"
He directs his eyes towards Steve. "You first Rogers."
