Marvel crosses Star Wars, and everyone attacks the galaxy
Chapter 97: The Winter Soldier
The weather is cold.
But then again, this is Russia.
Walking in freezing cold was something James Buchanan Barnes thought he was used to by now. However, the Siberian tundra certainly lived up to its name and reputation. He donned his thickest winter clothing and traversed the snowy tundra in hopes of reaching his destination.
Since Hydra's public revelation and eventual downfall with the failed Project Insight, Bucky has been slowly regaining his memories, but more importantly, his humanity.
However, as he begins to recover from his old life, he suffers daily nightmares of the atrocities he committed as a brilliant Hydra assassin, tearing at his soul, some things he can no longer face.
He wished he could die quickly and truly, to get some relief, but before doing so, Bucky wanted to clean up some of the messes he was involved in, the biggest of which was right where he was headed.
'I hope my muddled memory helps me where I'm going now,' thought the Winter Soldier as he trudged through the snowy landscape.
After a long trek, Bucky finally came across a rock ledge with a metal door below.
He stared at the steel wheel placed in front of the door. Normally, people would try to open the door by simply turning it. However, this door was no ordinary door.
He walked to the side, raised his mechanical hand, and kept tapping the rock surface with his fingertips. Finally, he lifted the stone wall at a rock and Bucky found a nine-digit keyboard.
Unzipping his jacket, Bucky pulled out a red leather-bound book with a white star on the cover.
Countless times, Bucky had to resist the urge to tear the thing to pieces and burn it to ashes. Yet, he needed its contents to get what he wanted and make up for the mistakes he had made.
In his hand, was the Red Book… well, one of the two Red Books, taken from the safe in the home of the late Minister Pierce.
Hydra uses these two books to protect various secrets from prying eyes. The locations of their huge hidden bases scattered around the world and how to enter them are described in detail in the books. Of course, over the years, as the bases have been moved and changed, many things recorded in the books are no longer useful, but this is still Hydra's core secret.
Taking a breath of cool air, the Winter Soldier calmed himself, opened the book, and flipped to the bookmarked page. Scrolling down, he found the access code for the panel. After entering it, a loud click came from the steel door, indicating that it had finally been opened again after nearly twenty years.
Bucky walked in, stuffed the red book back into his coat, and closed the door behind him. As he looked in all directions at the Hydra base in Siberia, memories suddenly flooded into his mind.
The echoing footsteps echoed through the halls and corridors, for he was the only conscious person in the base, and even though the Winter Soldier knew there would be no one else here, his nerves were still on edge.
Arriving at his destination, Bucky opens the door to reveal a cooling chamber with several devices attached to five pillars. These pillars are not made of concrete and dirt, but of metal and glass. They are not support pillars at all, but cryo-pods that hold five Hydra-created super soldiers.
Of all the Hydra agents, this elite death squad has the most kills in the organization's history...and now in cryostasis is before they were dosed with the Super Soldier Serum, which was reverse-engineered by the late Howard Stark.
Each of them was designed as a new generation of the Winter Soldier, the Winter Soldier MK II. With better gunplay, better combat skills, better mobility, better everything.
Since they speak thirty different languages and are fairly average looking, they can overthrow a government and country almost overnight, and no one is more powerful than them.
Bucky remembered what Captain America had told him about the serum: it makes a good guy better and a bad guy worse. He now thought he should add: the most important thing is whether the serum is in the hands of a good guy or a bad guy!
Because this elite team later became so uncontrollable, Hydra was forced to place them deep inside the base and freeze them, hoping to find a way to properly control them and then thaw them out and make them work for them.
Entering a separate room, Bucky looked around until he spotted what he was looking for.
An old rotary phone. Bucky opened the Red Book again and turned the dial a few times until it made a clanking sound and a wall of pipes, valves, and meters moved to one side, revealing a familiar black door.
Although he could now enter this place, Bucky had never had the opportunity to come to this door before, because in the past, this place was almost off-limits to everyone, so he was very curious about what was behind the door.
Slowly, with a sharp metallic sound, the black door opened, revealing a strange and slightly unsettling sight.
In front of him was a large machine, its black glassy material taking up 80% of the device. From the looks of it, it seemed to be a more complex cryo-chamber, as he could deduce from the container that held the second generation Winter Soldier. If it weren't for the design he had seen before, Bucky would have thought the object in front of him was some kind of complex high-tech container.
In Bucky's eyes, this was very strange, because it looked like a mixture of a cryo chamber and something else. He couldn't say a word, but no matter what it was, this was not an ordinary cryo chamber, otherwise Hydra would not have guarded it so closely before.
Approaching, Bucky used his mechanical hand to brush across the obsidian black surface. Bucky squinted his eyes and focused his sight on the outline inside the pod. He vaguely saw a silhouette that resembled a woman. But no matter how hard he tried, he could not see clearly through the dark glass, and could only see a vague outline!
Who is in this cryochamber?
