The Unholy War

24

"Come, we have to go." Wanda said grabbing your wrist, dragging you to the door.
"What, why?" You asked, bewilder but following her.
"It is not safe here." She said quietly, opening your door, pulling you with her. She started to head to the elevator before turning and opening the door to the stairs.
"Why not?" You asked, panic slowly starting to fill your chest.
"They know, they know Bucky is no longer with you." She said taking two steps at a time.
"But Steve put that thing on me, they shouldn't be able to find me." You said in confusion as you hit the bottom floor of your apartment.
"Not them," She said, opening the front door to the building two men stood just outside, neon blue eyes staring back at you. "Them."
"Angels?" You breathed, Wanda's hands slowly began to move, wisps of red slowly began to pour out of her palms before taking form. In an instant rain began to drip from the heavens as one of the men was blasted by a red blast of electricity coming from the woman next you. She spun as the second man who took a run for you, a sword in his hand, she blasted him through the brick wall of a nearby building. "Come on, there will be more. I have to get you to Sakovia."
"Sakovia? Why there?" You asked, rushing after her, keeping pace.
"Because of the accords, no demon or angel can act out while inside Sakovia. Otherwise they will be in breach of the contract and cease to exist." She replied.
"But what about Bucky and Steve?" You question as she hailed a taxi.
"They'll find us, trust me, Pietro will get them to you safely." She said, pushing you in the taxi as it slowed to a stop.
It seemed that from the moment you left your tiny home, and the ride to the air port time was slipping away at an alarming rate. You heart continued to thunder in your chest as the worry for the two men you had began to fall for ran through your body. You went from not believing in heaven or hell, angels or demons to suddenly being thrown into a situation where not only where they were real but they had both become enchanted with you. You ran your hand through your hair, dragging your own nails along your scalp.
"They will be fine, y/n, I have never met a stronger nor stubborn pair." She smiled over to you.
"Did you know Bucky?" You asked, looking out the window.
"I've known him only as a demon, but I heard of his battles as an angel. He was unparalleled, one of Fury's best." She said, the air port looming before you both. "It hurt heaven to have him cast out, that's when Steve took his place, and he is just as good a fighter."
"I hope you're right." You replied shakily, exiting the cab when it stopped. "Hang on how are we going to get there? I have no money?"
"Anybody need a flight?" Clint asked, coming around the corner. In that moment time seemed to slow down, you looked around the crowded airport confused for a brief moment as the sounds seem to deafen down. Then the world paused, your heart skipped a beat. A boom echoed through corridors, soft at first but you could feel reverberate through your body as chill rand down your spine.
    People began to move, shaking the weird feeling that had settled through them. As soon as the feeling was there, it was gone, and the world began to spring back to life. You looked over to Wanda and then to Clint, both wide eyed and in shock. She grasped your wrist and pulled you as Clint sprinted down the halls.

     When the blades made contact the sound sent a shock wave through Hell, coursing up through earths crust. The deafening collision sounding like an atomic blast going off, a blinding light flashed through every darkened corner of hell. Lower demon scurried away from the heavenly light, bodies dissolving the instant the radiant light touched their wicked, tormented beings. 
    Tony was thrown back from sheer force of the Holy Rapier still being held in Bucky's hands. The Unholy Dagger in his hands cracked, and melted, his face slack as he looked up the weapon slowly raising to meet his former commanding officer.
Bucky's eyes were pure white, his jaw clenched tight, wings outstretched on either of his muscular body. His silver arm had changed colors, the red star gone, in its place the metal had darkened to a blue-black luster, lined with gold. His black tactical clothes had burned away to the silver armor every angel in heaven wore to battle, in his hands he still held the Holy Rapier. But his essence, it had changed, coursing through him was the essence of an angel long dormant. He had called upon the sleeping angel, something that hadn't been seen since the battle in heaven.
Tony knew in that moment his only option was to give up, there was no way he could beat him. Not here, not now, not when the Arch Angel coursed through Bucky's being. He dropped the dagger he held, it broke on impact with the floor, being damaged beyond repair. He held up both his hands in defeat.
Rumlow choose that moment to enter into the pit, his own weapon drawn. Steve couldn't speak, couldn't react. He watched as Bucky slowly turned his head to the demon. As Rumlow rushed toward Bucky, oblivious to the secondary angel possessing his body, all Steve could do was watch on.
With one graceful movement, Bucky swung turning his body, Rapier in hand. The weapon pierced through Rumlow, slicing into his body with complete ease. The demons eye went wide, as light came from the wound, coursing outward. It's spread through his body like wild fire as it evaporated every inch of the demons body.
"You will leave the angels and the human alone." The words dripped from Bucky's lips, the voice deep, loud and commanding causing Tony to shake in his spot. He bowed his eyes as the arch angel spoke though Bucky. "Hell will leave them!"
Bucky turned to face Steve, he could still sense the arch angel with in, as Bucky walked over, grasping him by the shoulder. White light surrounded them as they left the pit, pulling them back to earth. The whole while, he could hear the arch angel speaking to him in his mind.
