I Won't Give Up (Bucky Barnes x Reader)

Chapter 12

You turned towards Steve who was trying his best to stay out of the argument. "I'm going down there. You can either stay here and sit on your ass, or you can fight."

Giving Bucky one last glare, you ran off to the stairwell with energy flowing up your hands. You made it to the next floor before strong arms pulled you back.

"Stop! I'm not letting you go down there and get captured. I won't-"

You quickly jabbed your elbow into his ribs, making him stumble back a bit. You held a hand towards him, the energy in your fingers glowing bright blue in his face. His eyes were wide with shock as he waited for your next move.

"Bucky, I need you to stop. I need you to fight with me, not against me. Please..." you whispered softly.

Bucky's heart broke hearing the vulnerability in your voice. He gave a sigh of defeat and pulled your hand down by your elbow. "I'll watch your six. Be careful."

You gave him a curt nod and started back down the stairs. When you reached the main floor, you cracked the door open and surveyed the surroundings. Hydra agents had swarmed the floor and currently had the team pinned.

The weapons they used were like nothing you had seen before. The composition of the bullets seemed to reflect that of your own abilities, a similar blue glow zipping through the air with every shot fired. There were at least thirty agents with similar weapons quickly pushing the team back.

Natasha was currently taking cover behind a large pillar, pistol in hand and firing off shots at whoever she could. Wanda and Vision were fighting as best they could, but they knew there was a risk in being hit with the new bullets. With the other members of the team away for the holiday season, you were extremely outnumbered.

You turned to the men behind you to form a plan. "I'm going in first. You two follow behind me. I'll give everyone protection while the two of you get to Natasha. Their bullets are very powerful, so don't get hit. Wanda and Vis can hold their own, but Nat should've had your help from the beginning. We can't let them push forward anymore. Got it?"

The two of them nodded their head in affirmation, letting you know they were ready. You slammed the door open, pausing the fighting for a second before all fire was directed towards you. Energy surged through your hands as you put up a protective wall against their shots. Bucky and Steve ran to Natasha, Bucky firing off his own shots back at the Hydra agents.

Once they had made it to Nat's position, you pushed the wall of energy forward, effectively pushing back the agents closest to you. Bullets zipped by your head, but you were too blinded by rage to notice. Blue covered your arms as you marched forward, shooting surges of your power into anyone who stood in your way.

Wanda flew to your side, a mix of blue and red light filling the floor as the two of you worked together. Anyone you couldn't see, she was right there to attack. The rest of the team watched in awe as the two of you picked the agents off one by one. Bucky and Nat fired off shots when they could, but they were useless compared to the power shared between you and Wanda.

A flash of blue passed by your head, giving you an idea. If the bullets were similar to your abilities like you assumed, maybe Wanda could manipulate them somehow.

"Wanda! I think they made the bullets out of something close to my powers! Try and source out their energy like you can do with me and shatter their ammo!"

Wanda looked at you with confusion. "If it's like your powers then it's going to hurt you too!"

There was no hesitation in your next words.

"Just do it!"

Wanda gave you a nod and turned back to the agents. She closed her eyes and focused in on your abilities, connecting herself to it. Once she sourced out the energy, her eyes shot open, glowing bright red as she surrounded your own energy within her own. She closed her fists to crush the bullets, leaving every agent helpless.
