  Summary

  (C. 2017 in the MCU) As James Barnes, formally known as the Winter Solider, recovers from his time as a brain-washed assassin, he begins to embark on regular missions provided by SHIELD. Alongside Clint Barton, one day he finds himself tasked with raiding an old HYDRA base located in Boston, Massachusetts. During this mission, he makes two discoveries: one, he'd rather die than be involved with HYDRA again, and two: the girl he and Clint there find may leave him with no other option. To help this girl, he must face his past as the Winter Soldier and finally unearth the secrets he'd rather keep buried.
