《Distraction》READY SOLDIERS?!
Advertisement
A blaring noise ripples through the apartment block.
Bucky jumps up off of Steve's sofa and runs upstairs. 'STEVE?!'
Steve just nods and Bucky's face goes pale.
They both quickly throw on their uniform and rush their way through towards Bucky's apartment where Daisy was staying.
'DAISY?!' Steve knocks frantically on the door.
'Screw this!' Bucky shouts, kicking the door off its hinges.
Both boys get in frantically to see Daisy suited up and ready.
'What're you two doing here?' Daisy asks calmly.
'Daisy please. Don't do this'
'Do what?'
'Go to war!'
'Don't you hear that alarm? They need us to go'
You finish putting your hair up into a tight bun and put your military cap on your head.
'Daisy' Bucky tries to speak softly but directly. 'You never wanted to fight in the war. That was mine and Steve's dream, I know you're trying to prove a point'
'It's not just a fucking point I'm trying to prove and you know it!'
Steve walks closer towards you. He goes to take your hand but you pull away. 'Don't Steve' you drop your head down. Unable to look at him.
'MOVE IT SOLDIERS!' A leader calls out to the three of you as he scouters the blocks for stragglers. You feel the adrenaline pumping through your veins and you dart out of the apartment and follow the rest of the troops.
'Buck...' Steve says as his voice cracks. 'I can't watch her fight in this war...'
'Then fight alongside her'
'W-what?'
'Til the end of the line pal'
Steve nods sadly and they both leave too. Hurrying themselves to catch up with you.
They manage to catch up to you as you load yourself onto one of the trucks. They squeeze onto the same one just as it heads off.

'LISTEN UP YOU MESELY MAGGOTS!' The Sargent speaks in a loud, ear piercing tone.
'WE WILL LEAD YOU THROUGH THE ACT OF WAR. WE HAVE THREAT OF AN UNKNOWN SUBSTANCE LOCATED AT A BASE UP NORTH. ITS RUN BY A SECRET AGENCY CALLED HYDRA. MISSION IS TO TAKE THE SUBSTANCE CAREFULLY AND GET OUT!
SARGEANT BARNES, CAPTAIN ROGERS AND WILL WORK ON THE INSIDE AND WE WILL CLEAR THE AREA AND FIGHT OFF ANY INCOMING ENEMY'S! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?!'
Everyone let's put a 'SIR YES SIR!' And you feel your heart beating in your chest. Your breathing starts to shallow as gums and weapons start being handed out, you look over at Steve who haven't taken his eyes off of you.
He stands up and works towards the other Sargent, they have a brief conversation and then the Sargent finally nods. Steve walks over to you and tries his best to stay in character.
'UP SOLDIER' he demands. You stand up and give the formal salute that you were taught you had to give when a commanding officer speaks.
'Follow me' He orders and you reluctantly follow. Once you're at the end of the truck he points to an empty set and he sits down next to you.
'The fuck was that?' You frown at him.
'Language! Don't speak to me like that right now incase the other soldiers hear!'
'Why? Got a side piece I'm not supposed to know about?'
'Daisy!' Steve says through gritted teeth and you gulp.
'You're coming with me and Bucky into the hydra base'
'What?'
Steve takes a deep breath. 'I can't stop you from fighting in this war but I can damn well keep an eye on you!'
'I don't need you to look out for me!'

You go to stand up but Steve grips your arm. As your eyes meet you see the merciful plea in his face. You sit back down and huff in annoyance.
'I know how capable you are Daisy. I told the argent that we had a better chance with three super soldiers than with two'
'Fine' you grumble.
'Thankyou...'
'But I have one condition'
'Anything' Steve says in relief.
'Great me like a soldier. Not your fiancé'
'You mean...we're still...'
'READY SOLDIERS?!' The Sargent shouts back out from the top of the truck.
Everybody stands and you turn to Steve.
'We're going to make it out of here and spend the rest of our lives together. You know that, don't you?'
You nod your head slightly and sneakily take his hand. Giving it a small squeeze just before the back of the truck opens and you all pile out.

World Wonderer
Mari was happily whisking up some butterscotch slice when our story suddenly whisks her into another world. You'd think it'd be the beginning of another classic Isekai adventure, but it soon becomes clear that things won't be so easy...Her nerdy-teenage-genius summoner has trapped her in his room, no one speaks English, and Mari's gut is NOT prepared for a whole new world of bacteria. Can Mari overcome the travel diarrhea, learn a whole new language and escape before she develops Stockholm syndrome? Most of all, can she learn to flourish in a world so different, yet so similar to her own? ****** Author note: This story is written in response to all the unrealistic, plot-armour Isekais out there. I believe that adventures are more fun when there are unexpected surprises and challenges to be had. That said, this is my virgin voyage into writing an ongoing fiction, so please take care of me @[email protected] Constructive critisms, suggestions and typos in the comments would be most appreciated! Respectfully, Mhm

Awakening no longer mattered, he just wanted to survive. But the choices he made inside the ‘unclearable’ dungeon brought about a side-effect that he couldn't have even imagined in his wildest dreams. “For the last time, I am not a necromancer!!!” “But you have an army of skeletons!” “They are not mine.” “But they are following you.”
