"Time to wake little one" the scientist kicked at your legs while you groaned at the sudden disturbance. You opened your eyes to see the dark, filthy cell that had been your home for the last few years. You rarely slept, but yesterday's training session had really taken its toll on you. The black rags they had given you for clothes were caked in blood and dirt, barely covering your body as it would normally have been intended. Clearly you weren't moving fast enough when you felt another swift kick to your stomach. You yelped, and tried to suck in some air to breathe while a hand grabbed you around the ankle and started dragging you out. Your hands lit up with the blue shimmer, you were terrified of what came next.
"We are trying something new today" the man seemed to be chirpy, regardless that he was pulling you along on the ground. He stopped finally and you stood up knowing there was only one choice. Obey, and follow. He nodded to himself, and looked at your hands curiously. "Put that away" he commanded, knowing you couldn't. Whenever you were scared, you couldn't help it. It kept happening. He turned to you fully and slapped you across the face, and the shimmering intensified.
You continued to follow him down the dark hallway, walking past the cells that were mainly empty. Most of the others died from the experiments, others just gave in to the torture and had already started going on missions. You wouldn't give them the satisfaction of giving in. You knew that the moment you gave up, then you would lose the rest of what you had left of your soul. They weren't taking that from you too.
He led you into a room with the chair you had grown to hate with every fiber of your being. You sat down in it, knowing that otherwise there would be knives involved or possibly a gun. They strapped you in, however had a harder time with your hands because it kept freezing everything around it.
"Open" the scientist had a hydra agent pointing a gun at you, and something in his hand for your mouth. You slowly opened your mouth and he stuffed it in between your teeth. "Today, my dear we are going to try to get that disobedience out of you" he seemed excited. You didn't like where this was going already. It was more of a question of what kind of pain were they going to inflict. Moments later you felt the chair tilt back, and it felt like you were being electrocuted. You could barely focus, your hands shot ice around the room, including at the Hydra agent with the gun who was frozen inside a large ice cube. The scientist only chuckled, but didn't seem to care about the misfortune of the other man.
He turned off the machine, and righted the seat again. "Tell me your name" he ordered.
"Y/N L/N" you glared at him, and then felt the seat being pushed back again. "Please no..." you begged, and the machine turned on again. This went on for hours, but you refused not to say your name.
"I'll show you obedience yet you bitch" he slapped you, and you just passed out.

You woke up screaming again, feeling the pain as fresh as it was back then. You felt someone tug on your hand kindly but you were lost in the memories again.
"Your safe, no one is going to hurt you. Your safe" Bucky's voice was softly speaking to you closer to your face than you thought he would be. You opened your eyes and saw he was close, rubbing your arm with his metal one, and holding your hand with his flesh one still. "Look at me doll, your safe" he prompted and you looked into his eyes. "I won't let anyone hurt you, okay?" he promised.
You nodded unsurely, the flashbacks still coming forward in your mind. He continued to rub your arm, even though it was awkward from his position, he didn't seem to mind.
You found yourself finally coming back around a lot faster. Maybe he was right, having someone around helps. You saw the sun was already up, meaning you slept a lot longer than usual.
"I missed the sunrise" you finally spoke up in a croaky voice, earning yourself a laugh from Bucky.
"Yes, you finally slept all night" he smiled victoriously.
"Thank you" you gave a half smile, then looked up to see Steve and Sam coming outside holding mugs of coffee.
"Time to get moving, sexy legs" Sam grinned ear to ear, while Bucky scowled. You just blushed, and sat up a bit, unfortunately that also met Bucky had to let you go. You enjoyed his comfort. He started to get up and pull up his bedding at the same time, so you would have an easier time getting to your clothes. You noticed he only stashed it under your swing, meaning either he was grabbing it later, or intending to continue to sleep on the porch with you. You blushed at the thought that he would want to spend the night again.
"Is everyone already awake?" you finally got up fully, folding your blanket up.
"A while ago. We wanted to let you sleep" Steve smiled kindly. You nodded and went inside and saw Nat give you a knowing smile. You rushed into the bathroom to change quickly, grabbing your sneakers. When you came out Nat wrinkled her nose.
"Do you have any clothes that fit?" she was sitting between Bruce and Clint at the table.
"This fits, its just a little tight" you rolled your eyes.
"That's the opposite of tight" Tony rolled his eyes back at you. "Nat tells me you need new clothes, and I happen to agree"
"I have lots of clothes, I just need to wash them when I get back" you put your hands on your hips.
"You really want to argue with us on this one?" he crossed his arms.
"I'll argue this one" you bristled, reminding them all for the second time this week you were like a little kitten.
"I'll tell you what, kitten. You go for your run, and we will discuss the terms of getting you clothes" Tony grinned.
"I can't afford the expense, there are no terms" you glared. "Also, why kitten? I don't understand the reference"
"We do" Clint chuckled. "That's all that matters"
"Lets get going Y/N" Steve called in, seeing you were looking like you were about to tell the team off.
"Run along kitten" Nat giggled, giving your butt a playful smack which you yelped at.
