Bucky/Soldat | MCU | Purple Team | OTA

I. Falling City

Back when they were just James, Soldat promised Kitty they'd get to her no matter what, if there was a big attack. Well, time to make good on that promise. Soldat is getting to their illusion-family and getting them out, Misty and Steve and even Natasha. Through a combination of James' metal-manipulation, lots of dodging, and literally punching through illusions, they plow through the splintering city to try and round people up.

They might intervene in fights along the way. Find yourself cornered by a wolfbear or a goon with a gun? They'll dive in to help. Find yourself stuck on a piece of sidewalk hovering in midair, unable to get to the next chunk of safety? They'll make their superhuman leap to scoop you off and dump you on solid ground. Trapped in an illusion? Well-- they won't try to talk you out of it, there's not time for that, they might just grab you around the waist and carry you bodily off until you snap out of it.


II. Evac Duty

Guns and super strength is not going to be of much use against whatever makes these illusions. The creature, the-- child? young being?-- who is screaming at them. They've gone up against the wielders of illusions before, and they know their own weaknesses. They can't risk being turned off, or worse, turned on their team.

So instead they start herding people to the park, their own former-and-present family included. "Come on. We've got back-up. We can get you home." They might not be able to help with the actual evacuation (well, yes they will, once they get there) but they can at least protect people en route.
