Y/N was four years old when HYDRA stole her—and twenty-five when the Avengers finally set her free. After twenty-one years of conditioning, experimentation, and being molded into an enhanced weapon, she spends six months learning how to be a person instead of an asset. With the Avengers, she begins to understand friendship, freedom, and maybe even family. And no one understands her better than Bucky Barnes. Then her first mission goes wrong. One moment of lowered defenses ends with Bucky taking a shotgun blast to the shoulder. Terrified and furious, the team places the blame squarely on Y/N. Tony tells her she’s done. So she does what HYDRA taught her to do when an asset is no longer useful. She disappears. Three days later, Bucky discovers what happened—and he’s furious. Because Y/N didn’t fail the Avengers. The Avengers failed her. And Bucky Barnes is going to find her, bring her home, and make damn sure she knows she was never disposable.
