Assassin's Love (Lady x Krys)

Grant laughed. "Because everyone fails at cooking except auntie Krys, JJ, and daddy, and uncle Loki, but he's apparently. Maybe, auntie Krys hasn't introduced him into the circle again." He said, looking contemplative. He nodded when she asked her next question, and smiled back at her. "You and daddy are inseparable most of the time in my time." He said, watching her make the french toast with his aunt.

Steve chuckled. "I tried not to go into to much detail. I know it must be weird for you, having practically raised her." He said, smiling as he remembered the look on her face when he gave it to her. He nodded at his best friend. "I was starting to give up hope too, and then I met her. She says I'm her north star." He said, a dreamy look in his eyes. He really was quite deeply and irrevocably in love with her.
 
"Loki?" Elena Loki's at krys reading a eyebrow before blushing slightly."that's good.he's nice to be around." She smiled enjoying the thought that this relationship with Steve survived her first signing steps in fighting it out.

"Thank you for that.And I did...So I need to give you the shovel talk?"he asks anything at his friend.starting at him for a minute Bucky started to laugh."Oh, you've got it bad. This is going to be fun." He smirked because having been subjected to Steve's teasing him about krys he was looking forward to reading him back
 
Krystal smiles. "Yes. Loki. Thor's brother. He tried taking over the world once. Steve and the avengers and I thrashed him, and I cognitive recabrated him with my crystal. Everyone but Thor doesn't trust him." She said, smiling a little as a huge plate of french toast. Grant smiled and nodded. "Yes. Daddy loves you a whole lot. I can see it in the way he acts around you" he said, smiling and watching them.

Steve laughed. "What are you talking about. You know Krys will kick my ass if I hurt her. Not that I ever could. I love her to much." He said, sighing a bit. He really did have it bad, and bucky knew it. All the teasing he did to his friend over his love for Krys is gonna come back to bite him in the ass. "Fun, right.. Jerk. You're still taking all the stupid with you, buck."
 
“Ah. Well, I’m sure they’ll come around.”Elena smiled looking amused at that before frowning slightly, blushing as she considered Steve. Wondering if she’d hurt his feelings by not saying it, or responding beyond knowing she liked him. Biting her lip as she settled down with her own plate of food, starting to eat, spending time in her own head instead of interacting with the others.

“Very true. I’ll leave the shovel talks to Krys. And I know, but as her adopted father I felt I should express the ‘if you hurt her, I hurt you’ feeling that’s so common in romance novels and tv.”Bucky snickered a little smirking a little. “I doubt that. I’m not the one stupid in love this time.”Lies, all lies, bucky was still stupid in love with Krys but teasing steve was to good to pass up. Tilting his head a little. “Krys was making food. We better go get some before Elena eats it all.”
 
Krystal smiled. "Yup. I hope so, anyway." She said as she sat down to eat, wondering what was keeping bucky, but then she chuckled. "You think bucky is lecturing Steve on not hurting yo, or youuhink he's gonna leave that to me?" She asked with a chuckle when Grant piped up, need help cutting his food. She masterfully cut his food and smiled at him, kissing his head. "There you go angel." She said with a smile, and he smiled, thanking her as she at down to eat.

Steve chuckled. "Hipocrite. You know you're still stupidly in love with Krys." He said with a Krys like smirk, still chuckling. He could smell the cherry blossoms from here. It was rather funny. "Krys starting you on cherry blossoms again?" He asked, laughing. It was quite amusing, but knowing Krys, she'd have bucky smelling like that colonge she makes JJ wear in no time. "Yeah, let's get some food." He agreed, walking to the door.
 
“hmm, probably leave it to you. He’s probably teasing him about finally...you know, figuring out how to play ‘hide the sausage’”Elena smiled blushing as she watched grant and krys, wincing a little having not thought to cut up his food. Maybe she wasn’t that ready to be a mother yet? She knew she was being stupid but it still upset her some.

“You’ve been spending to much time with her. You’re smirking like her.”He pouted a little before making a face.”Did not.”Bucky sulked not about to admit he was enjoying the cherry blossom smell of his hair again as they headed for the kitchen smirking slightly at the sight of their girls and grant talking. It was fairly cute and amusing.
 
Krystal smiled at Elena and laughed. "Yeah, you're probably right." She said with a chuckle, smiling at Elena reassuringly. "Its still new for you dear. I've been babying JJ for 70 years." She told her reassuringly, smiling.

Steve chuckled. "She kinda latched onto me after I was defrosted. Kept telling me if she didn't, she wouldn't get you back" he said, chuckling at his friend. He knew the other was totally enjoying smelling like Krys again. "So, you think you're gonna propose again buck? He asked while they were still alone, just curious. He was already working out his proposal to Elena, but that would wait for a little while.

Krystal smiled and kissed bucky when she saw him come in, fixing a plate for him and for Steve. Tony and JJ were off on a date, Natasha and Clint were on a mission, and Bruce was still sleeping as was Thor, as far as she knew."hello again love" she said, handing him his plate, and sitting him next to her.
 
Bucky twitched a little at the idea of Krys ‘latching’ onto steve, even if he that it wasn’t the way steve knew it. Pausing as he considered that, he looked down again before nodding slightly. He probably would. As soon as he figured out how to.”Yea.”he muttered.

“Hello.It seems I owe you money.”Bucky smiled a little as he sat down, leaning over to kiss her cheek as he started to eat. Elena smiled looking up at Steve feeling awkward and out of sorts now that everyone knew what they’d done. This was so weird for her she had no idea how to handle this, wanting to simply relax and save the future that was supposed to be.
 
Steve chucked. "Sorry buck. But you know that would never happen." He said reassuringly smiling. "I'm already planing how to propose to Elena. Its almost sad how much I love her. But I do, and we must be married, cause we have grant, right?" He asked, looking contemplative.

Steve kissed both Elena and grant's heads as he came in, sitting down next to her. He looked to her squeezingher hand. "Krys guessed. Don't feel bad. Its no big deal. He'll tease me, not you, and Krys is just happy for us." He whispered at a volume only she could hear.
 
“I know, stop making me feel like a jealous idiot.”Bucky grumbled before smiling slightly, not about to say what he thought of. “Right.You two will be fine.”He said not about to admit that he wondered if their relationship would survive the strain, even if they’d had sex, he knew better then anyone, just how much of a mess Elena was. It was going to be interesting, and painful to watch them figure it out.

Elena smiled quietly looking over at him, squeezing his hand back before smirking slightly. “Good.”She muttered relaxing as she finished eating, leaning back in her seat with a quiet sigh of pleasure.
 
Steve chuckled. "Okay buck" he said with a smile, nodding his head at the reassurance. "Yes. I know you know her much better than I, but know that I'm gonna do everything in my power to help her. She means so much to me." He added to the other, smiling slightly. HE knew Elena had many scars on her heart, but he meant to make her feel like she was safe.

Steve wrapped an arm around her waist. "It's all gonna be fine. Should we start planning an attack on the future?" He asked, looking to his son and ruffling his hair. "We'll fix your future, squirt." He said, grinning at the child who nodded.
 
“I know you will, and that she does.”Bucky smiled a little, leaning over to kiss Krys’ cheek, nuzzling her a little. “Now tell us, how are we going to take care of the future, krys?”He said because while he was intelligent, he was more then okay with following orders, even more so then he had been before, hydra had taken his natural inclination to follow, and changed it to a near obsession to simply follow orders.

“We should.”Elena smiled leaning into steve a little, before smiling at grant, smiling quietly, needing to hold him, picking him up, settling the boy in her lap. “We’ll fix things. I promise.”She said smiling as she pressed a kiss to his hair, looking nervous and not sure what was going to happen, but knowing they had to fix it.
 
Krystal smiled. "Well, easist way is to let sapphire kidnap me. Diamond's deathly afraid of me. I bet I can get him to see reason, and we can quickly extinguish the hydra threat. I know you're not gonna be thrilled with that plan bucky, but saphire will not hurt me. That I know for sure. Angel, can you tell us more about your future after the attack? I was affected only because I was hit with a blast, correct angel?" The child nodded. She smirked. "Do you want to know why diamond is so afraid of me? Its because I'm immune to the powers of the black malefic crystal" she told them, explaining her plan to them further. She knew it would require going to Tokyo with them, to here sister.

Steve cuddled Elena, and kissed her head as he ruffled Grant's hair. "You're mom's right. Krys's plan is flawless, as usual. We'll fix this for you, son." He told him and the child smiled, giving them both big hugs. "Thank you." Steve only nodded.
 
Bucky grinded his teeth together looking annoyed at the idea, slanting a glance at Krys, anger in that look. “No. I don’t care. There’s another way.There has to be.”He said sinking his heels in because he had lost his world once, because he’d gone away. He wouldn’t consider putting krystal into their hands for this. He couldn’t. It felt like he was being gutted to simply consider it. “No, Krys. Just no.”

Elena sighed softly as she leaned against steve, watching the other couple not liking it either but she knew Krystal was right, that it was best. She knew bucky knew it was for the best to, but he was going to sink his heels down about it and refuse to budge, and she really couldn’t blame him for it.”You’re welcome sweetheart.”She muttered hugging him gently.
 
Krystal looked at him. "I wish there was love. But this is the quickest way to resolve this. The quicker we finish this the better, because we can't have two of the same person in the same space of time, and I suspect, Elena, that Grant is born quicker than you think. The faster we can return him to his time, before I'm to heavily pregnant to fight the better it will be for all involved." She told them firmly, digging her heels just as deep. She had seen the out come of this, and she knew that if bucky wouldn't sign on, she'd have to do it anyway and risk him hating her. In this instance it wasn't really hydra they were fighting, it was the black moon. Destroy diamond's plans and hydras go down the toilet.

Grant looked to his uncle. "Uncle bucky, I know you're just worried about auntie, but it isn't Hydra we're fighting. It's black moon. Destroy the plan of Diamond and Death phantom, and hydra becomes nothing again. It is the weapon of the black moon they are using to seize control." He told his uncle, looking at him with an expression that was both pleading and a little angry. He understood his uncles reasons, but in this case, it wasn't an issue. Steve too worried about Krys, But he also knew she was immune to brainwashing. It was a perk of the shadow magic she possessed. "I think you should let her do it buck. It's clearly the best choice." He agreed with his son, knowing that from experiencing the even firsthand, the child would know better.
 
“What?”Elena sputtered a little looking down at both the six year old, and her own stomach. “I..damn. We have to do it now then.”She said looking anxious

Bucky stared at them all, anger filling those dark grey eyes for a moment before melting away. But not like he wasn’t angry or worried still, simply slamming up the walls that had existed for 70 years, the ring of ice that had separated bucky barnes from the winter soldier. Nodding slightly he pushed his plate away “Fine. I better go see about raiding Stark’s weaponry supply, see what I can use.”Bucky said simply before walking out.

Elena winced looking at them all. But considering what they were asking him to do, to allow, she knew that a passive agreement was better then a nasty flash of temper, pretty sure under that icy control was violence waiting under the surface, and not sure if it’d be better to goad him or not. “...That went better then I thought.”She muttered watching the door, half expecting Bucky to walk back in.
 
Krystal put a hand on her shoulder reassuringly. "It will be fine. You'll have me and obviously Steve to help you." She said with a smile, trying to reassure the probably freaking out woman.

Krystal knew that look. It was the same look he gave her back in the 30's when she wanted to follow him to war. Those slate blue eyes bore into her heart, but she knew this was the only way. She only nodded her head when bucky left, and she followed with her eyes until he was out of site. Steve sighed. "He's gonna murder this sapphire guy, isn't he?" Krystal looked at him, sighing as well. "Yeah, probably" she agreed, looking to Elena.

'Yeah, maybe so, but he's gonna be pissed off at me for as long as this takes. I can't really blame him, but its what has to be done. Without bringing down black moon, we can't extinguish Hydra fully." She stated, looking very wounded. It hurt her to see him like this, but it was the bast way to do it. Black moon was the core of this whole hydra mess.
 
“I-I know.”She stuttered a little looking nervous and trying to keep from freaking out. They had more important things to concentrate on at the moment.

Elena nodded, tilting her head a little.”He’s gotten very good at it.”She said simply to steve’s question, because she had no doubt it would just be a matter of time before....”Jarvis, make sure he doesn’t leave.”She said simply, knowing better then to leave bucky on his own for to long. Before nodding at krys’ words.”He’s going to. And he knows that, but it’s not....easy for him.”She sighed quietly. "Try talking to him."She said looking worried about bucky, but knowing better then to go after him herself.
 
Krystal smiled reassuringly at her. "Good." She said, still smiling.

"Yes, you're right about that." He said with a sigh, looking concernedly at Krys. Jarvis piped up. "Yes Elena. I've made sure he is unable to leave." The AI chirped, responding to her request. Krystal looked at Elena worried lay, absentmindedly putting a hand on her stomach. It was a habit she had had when she was pregnant with JJ. "Do you really think I should? It could end badly. I feel terrible, but.. I know it has to be done." She said, looking quite deflated. Only together again for two days, and they already had their first fight.
 
Elena bit her lip, nodding quietly. “If you don’t, he’ll settle more into being the Soldier instead of bucky.”She said studying her. “It might end badly but...”She shrugged because she was scared if Bucky willingly, fully made the conscious decision to simply be the winter soldier, that if he stepped back, they’d never get him back. And he would. She’d seen him protect himself, wall everything away to hide from everything, and only in retrospect could she see the moments that he had shied away from memories that hadn’t fully been there, but he had known they were there for him.
 
Krystal sighed, defeated. "You're right Elena. I can't risk loosing him again." She said finally, getting up fro. Her chair and walking down to the armory, finding him easily, as he was just where he said he'd be. She walked in slowly, voice meek as she spoke his name. "Bucky?" She asked tentatively, unsure if she should reach out to him or not. She hadn't had the time to talk to him the last time, and because of it he was captured twice. "Bucky, please talk to me?" She asked, voice small like a mouse, her expression looking like something out of a super fe formed anime, where the character was sad.
 
Bucky didn’t react to her coming in, those it was obvious he heard, his head raising slightly at the sound of the door shutting behind her ,even if he was stripping down a sniper rifle and going over it. Shoulders tensing at her words he swallowed compulsively, black hair pulled back, giving her a glimpse of tense features. “...Why?”
 
She looked at him, heart broken with just one glance. She took in a sharp breath, unsure of what to say. She stepped a little closer, sitting on a near bye stool. "You think I'm doing the wrong thing, don't you?" She said, it came out half like a question and half like a statement. She didn't want to loose him, not ever, but she could see this was driving a wedge between them. Krystal wasn't sure if she should touch him or not. This sitchuation to her was like killing to him when hydra had ahold of his mind. A routine sacrifice for the greater good. A mission. She didn't see it as threatening in anyway, though she knew his reservations. "You're not gonna loose me bucky. No matter what. Is that really what worries you?" She asked softly, eyes full of love and sadness as she spoke.
 
Bucky offered a half hearted shrug not even looking up as he stripped the rifle. “...It’s not for me to question my mission. I just follow what’s decided. You were always better at deciding that then I was.Well. Steve was really.Better tactician. If he says it’s fine. It is.”Bucky said simply, because he was retreating, regrouping. Treating it simply as a hydra mission because if he did anything less he’d think to hard. And she was right. It was a routine sacrifice to him to make. And after 70 years of doing it, he was tired. But...he’d do what was asked of him, which for this, was standing aside and letting her do this, not answering the question, simply because he didn't know what bothered him the most about this, because he trusted her to take care of herself, but this still bothered him.
 
Krystal hugged him from behind, kissing his shoulder. "Bucky, I love you. Nothing on this planet or any other, can change that. In fact, to show you just how much that I love you, I have something for you." She said with a smirk, kissing his cheek. She knew he couldn't resist presets, no matter how angry he was. The first one she handed him was small, like a jewelry box, and inside it held his folk dog tags, along with a small charm attached. A medallion with a blue crescent and a red star, to represent the two of them being together again, and also as a charm to keep him safer from harm and hydra. "I used to never take those off after you died. It was a comfort. Like you had left them with me for safe keeping while you were away." She told him softly, smiling slightly. The next box was a large one, and it had to be put on the floor. Inside lay everything he had ever given her or shared with her in both the 30's and back in silver millennium, which she doubted her remembered. He had been a prince then, of mercury if she remembered right. The fact that they had found each other over a thousand years later, twice, proved they were soulmates. "Bucky, everything is gonna be okay, I promise. Don't worry about me." She told him softly, kissing his cheek yet again.
