Deadly was a word to describe him perfectly. The Winter Soldier succumbed with his reality that he was nothing more than a weapon. He was HYDRA's pride and joy, everything they wanted in a weapon. They erased everything from his mind, his memories, and his emotions. Bucky Barnes no longer existed. Being The Asset, he was tuned out of reality; blood and violence was a normal sight for him.
It shouldn't be a normal sight for you, he thought.
You were a special case in HYDRA. A kid being experimented on by the selfish hands of the scientists. The first time he saw you, he felt a tug in his heart–they erased everything from him, but there was something about you that brought a little spark of empathy.
Maybe because he was also a kid once?
As soon as he saw the glimpse of innocence behind your eyes, Bucky knew he had to do everything to protect you. The higher ups suspected nothing about the family-like interaction, you were a harmless kid after all. You became inseparable with him since then.
Bucky was in his quarters, taking a breather after his training session. He heard footsteps in front of his room, he would be on guard, usually. But he knew it was you. You entered his quarters, grinning at him. "Bucky!" You immediately jumped to hug him. "Hey, kid." He patted your head. "I'm bored." You continued, looking up at him.
"What do you want to do?" Bucky asked, still ruffling your hair. Before you even opened your mouth, he knew that look on your face as he immediately shook his head. "No, other than that. We can spar, hell, I can even teach you to shoot. But we are not braiding my hair."
