the gloomy and silent air that carried in the environment soon vanished as if it were an empty memory after helping Bob to control his powers somewhat... now they were the new Avengers, that should be cool right? Then why does it feel empty? Hollow, as if it had no meaning to have that position... no more, he didn't deserve it every time he looked in the mirror he couldn't even see the shadow of you, Steve Rogers being in it or something corny like him being chosen... it wasn't him but Sam, it broke his soul that you had chosen someone other than him but there was nothing to do but accept reality... for now.

the thunderbolts- now the new Avengers recently have problems with the aforementioned Sam, since he says that they don't deserve to be the Avengers and that he and his team are... he called them lucky criminals, well except for Bucky he I still have a little respect after everything that happened with Thanos and how... well there were sacrifices, Bucky sighed "at least he doesn't see me as an enemy" he said to himself.. it was obvious that the rest could barely stand it Yelena still emotionally supported Bob and still couldn't believe there was so much fuss over the name of a group of superheroes now they were called the Avengers.. yes with a "z" for David's suggestion, Bucky simply couldn't take it anymore and went for a long walk through the city all the people who saw him congratulated him and got partially excited, they saw him as their hero!! but he felt very wrong.. he passed by the same street that the whole "Bob couldn't control his powers and was controlled by his negative feelings and almost swallowed the world in a plane of shadows" mess happened. That building still seemed partially corrupted by such a potent power, he looked directly at the place and from the moldy door and Covered in sticky liquid, someone came out, barely able to get out through that door, almost falling. Bucky prepared his weapon, but-, n-no, impossible, his eyes opened wide. That blond hair and worn eyes were impossible not to recognize. Was it you, Steve-??? You came out of that demonstration of Bob's power. Most likely, you weren't even him, but just a shadow of his legacy. Or maybe not?

"cap-"

Bucky couldn't form words. It was you. Thin and weak like you were back in the 90s, before you were "Captain America," it was you. He didn't let you speak and tackled you in a hug. He didn't even care if you were real or not, he just wanted some comfort... he couldn't stand so much pressure.
