[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle

"Hydra claimed responsibility for the attack. The one who attacked the venue was their weapon, the Winter Soldier. It seems that we really pushed Hydra into a corner... I can't believe that there is more than one humanoid weapon like that. In addition to James Barnes who is on the run, there are several more..."

Cassandra also found this matter unbelievable, because before, Bucky alone was a Winter Soldier who gave them enough headaches, and although the Winter Soldiers who blew up the venue were not equipped with an iron arm (modified by alien technology), they were also very powerful.

"What shocked us the most was that after the Winter Soldiers escaped, our people went after them and found out that we were not the only ones hunting them."

She placed a unclear photo in front of Jason with a serious expression.

"This is a photo taken by Agent Jessica Jones. When we found two of the Winter Soldiers, they were already dead. Jason and Bucky killed them."

Jason was puzzled.

"Why did he go after them?"

"Who knows? But you can't leave here now. Jessica and I will continue to track him down. We will bring him back."

Cassandra squatted in front of Jason and promised solemnly: "I swear, I will bring him back to you. No, as soon as I get close to him, I will inform you, and then you can use the space coordinates placed on my body to open the space door immediately, and you can question him about this matter."

Jason nodded.

The mutant negotiation meeting was at a critical moment, he really couldn't leave, and he could feel Cassandra protecting him in her own way.

Because Bucky is the Winter Soldier, and Jason, who now represents "mutants", should not be blatantly involved with Bucky.

As he realized this, Jason felt guilt towards Bucky, and disgust towards himself.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I will also finish things here as soon as possible and then join you."

That’s right, after finishing things here, he immediately went to find Bucky.

……

"Why did James Barnes go after those who were once his kind?"

"Maybe he's seeking revenge?"

……

In Bucky's opinion, everything he did now was not out of revenge, because if he really wanted revenge, Jason would have told him to draw the location of the Hydra base, and then the two of them would go together to overturn those bases and kill those Hydras for revenge.

But Bucky didn't do that. In the past two years, he mainly did three things: one, recover his memory, two, fall in love with Jason, and three, live a good life.

As a former soldier, he went to the battlefield to end the war, and spent seventy years in the cold and daze. Now he can finally take a good look at this world that he once protected with his life, and enjoy life.

He was never a person trapped by hatred. He even secretly vowed not to kill again. Even when he was tortured by past memories, he never thought of revenge through killing. At most, he would consume high-calorie foods and use carbohydrates and sugars to relieve his psychological discomfort.

Bucky believes that killing cannot make hatred and pain disappear. Although Jason is not averse to killing, he also respects Bucky's ideas and practices.

So Bucky is doing all this now just to face his past.

Yes, at first what he wanted to do was to face his past. He remembered everyone he had killed. In the past he had avoided those things and had even considered living in seclusion in a Gotham orphanage as a gardener for the rest of his life.

But as Jason went further and further on his path and became more and more dazzling, Bucky realized that he couldn't do that.

Jason just wanted to live with him and love him, but Bucky couldn't give him anything except living with Jason and loving him.

They can't get married because Jason is standing on the cusp of the storm. As long as he holds on, he can ride the wind and move to higher places. Then he can do more things, including changing Gotham.

But once he enters into a legal marriage with someone, Bucky will also be the focus of attention, and once his past is dug up, he will be a stain on Jason.

Similarly, they cannot have children. Bucky can't give anything to his lover, and if Jason is asked to take on all the responsibilities of raising a child alone, he would be too selfish and cowardly.

Thinking of this, Bucky smiled bitterly. After he recovered his memory, he found that Jason was not very concerned about protecting himself. He was always kind to others without hesitation, but rarely considered himself.

Bucky taught Jason a lot of things, including how to protect himself, that men who don't wear condoms and instead make you take pills are scumbags, that you should refuse unreasonable requests, and that you should think about your own safety first when encountering something, so he couldn't allow himself to be the one who hurt Jason.

He thought about it for a long time. After learning about the different positions the Avengers faced on the Skovia Accords and the possible dilemma of splitting up due to the different positions, Bucky figured out what he should do.

He doesn't want to avoid the past anymore. He wants to face his crimes, turn himself in, plead guilty, and accept any punishment.

Before confessing his guilt, he had to finish what he could do.

Like dealing with the other Winter Soldiers, and...

Bucky clenched the gun in his hand. Jason had a lot of good stuff in his inventory, and there were a lot of locators attached to them. In order to successfully bring these out and clean up the gadgets on them, Bucky spent a lot of effort.

Sorry, Jay, for taking your things and taking out some of your favorite "treasures" without permission. I promise this will be the last time.

Thinking this, Buggy aimed at the figure riding a motorcycle on the road in front of him.

It was one of his kind.

He narrowed his eyes and pulled the trigger. The powerful recoil shook Bucky's body, but he did not retreat at all. The head of that "comparable" exploded, and the whole body fell to the ground, and the motorcycle also flipped sideways several meters.

"There are three more..."

Bucky whispered, turning around and getting on his motorcycle, heading off into the night.

Many people don’t know where James Barnes went during the two years he was missing, or why he suddenly appeared and attacked Hydra two years after his disappearance. But this did not stop Captain America from immediately abandoning the Skovia Accords and running out to find Bucky.

That was the only one of his kind in this era, and a close friend who was lost and found again and then disappeared for two years.

Bucky began to hunt down the Winter Soldiers, which undoubtedly meant that Bucky had at least broken free from Hydra's control.

"As for why he wants to attack Hydra, it's still a mystery, because according to the intelligence, he's not just hunting down other Winter Soldiers and Hydra's forces. If he encounters some villains, he doesn't mind taking action. Ha! He's like a new vigilante!"

Tony said this while flipping through the information that Old Jia had found. He sighed, "But I can be sure that the other Old Popsicle is more adapted to this era than the Captain. Look at the way he evades tracking. Even with the use of satellites and various high-tech technologies, as well as the involvement of network monitoring, we still can't find him."

The captain shook his head helplessly: "Tony, Bucky has always been very smart, and he has also carried out... assassination missions during the years he was controlled by Hydra. He was not always frozen."

Having said this, his expression was silent for a moment.

The Prince of Wakanda sat next to him and said in a low voice: "We must find him as soon as possible. Barnes knows more about Hydra than we thought. He must have a lot of valuable intelligence."

And he must make Hydra pay with blood to avenge the death of his innocent father!

Natasha added, "There is one more thing. Some people above are also looking for Barnes. Since some of Hydra's intelligence was released, some of Barnes' previous assassination targets have also been declassified. The general opinion above is to convict him."

The captain retorted, "But Bucky did those things because he was brainwashed!"

Tony held his shoulder and said, "I know. That's why we have to find that old popsicle first. That's why I brought you here despite the pressure. Look, Rod played dumb and let us out at the critical moment when the Skovya Agreement was half signed!"

Natasha rolled her eyes at him, deeply thinking that it was unfortunate for Rhodes to be Tony's friend.

Speaking of people who want to convict Bucky, Prince T'Challa had something to say: "If Barnes really did those things because he was brainwashed, I mean, then he is indeed an innocent person."

"If you think it's unsafe for him to fall into the hands of certain people, I can help provide a place to detain him. But you know, detention is only in name only. My sister is a very good neuroscientist. She can help with treatment..."

T'Challa pointed to his head.

Everyone in the cabin showed a look of sudden realization. Yes, this method is very good. It can protect Bucky and shut up certain people. The most important thing is that Bucky’s brain can be cured.

The captain showed a grateful expression: "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Just call me T'Challa."

The handsome black prince patted the captain on the shoulder.

After getting off the plane, before the group had time to rush to the location of the Hydra base recorded in the intelligence in their hands, Lao Jia reminded Tony that he had found another key information.

"Sir, just one minute ago, Hydra released a video."

Lao Jia seemed a little hesitant when he said this, but he still projected the video forward.

It was a video from 91, a premeditated car accident, and the protagonists were Bucky and Tony's parents.

T'Challa realized that something was wrong the moment he watched the video. He watched Tony immediately control the armor to fly towards the Hydra base. The captain, Natasha and he looked at each other and immediately got on the vehicle to chase after him.

When they arrived at the place, they saw Bucky fighting with Tony, and there were several corpses lying on the ground around them.

There is no doubt that Bucky is the biggest winner in the battle to hunt down the Winter Soldier, and other heroes of the same kind have no power to fight back against him.

But Bucky never expected that after he killed all the "Winter Soldiers" except himself, Tony would come down from the sky and fight with him.

Bucky knew who Tony was, so when Tony attacked him, he really couldn't be ruthless, so he seemed very passive.

At this moment, the captain's voice rang out on the scene.

"NO, Tony, stop!"

The star shield was thrown out, temporarily repelling Tony, and the captain caught the flying shield and blocked it in front of Bucky.

"I'm sorry, Tony, Bucky is my friend, please..."

Tony's hood opened, revealing an angry face: "I thought I was too!"

Bucky panted and half-knelt on the ground. He reached out and wiped the blood from his nose with his sleeve, and found that the last piece of clothing he brought out was also stained.

Luckily Axel didn't see it, otherwise the little bear would have rushed over, stripped his clothes and thrown them into the washing machine.

At this moment, Bucky missed the little Paddington Bear who was always busy at home, the sweet smell of Jason's cookies, and the warm scene of the two of them watching TV hand in hand.

They ended up having a fight with Tony, and with the help of T'Challa, Cap took Bucky and got out of there.

"Come on, Bucky. I'll take you to Wakanda. Prince T'Challa promised us that if everyone thinks it belongs to you, at least you can serve your sentence in Wakanda. It's safer there."

"Serving a sentence?"

This word woke Buggy up. He covered his forehead which was hit by the iron armor and shook his head firmly.

"No, I have to go somewhere else."

T'Challa looked at him in confusion. "Where are you going to go now that you're in this state? If you step on the ground again, there will be a group of people trying to catch you! By then, it will be exponentially more difficult for me to send you to Wakanda to serve your sentence!"

Bucky was silent for a moment, then smiled: "Go to Gotham."
