Mini portals, my new favorite attack of choice, hear me out, you see when you close portals anything in between gets cut, and here is where mini portals go in, I open one the attackers hand goes through, and I close it down, smaller means lets chance of dodging, and a faster close time, and I was practicing that shit all day long.

Now, the thing with mini portals was that they were harder to maintain, in short, opening a normal portal used to transport people was easier than opening a portal the size of a fist, also this mini portal trick was not always infallible, the portals regardless of the size had a limited cutting power, which makes me think that's the reason Dr. Strange didn't use them to cut Thanos' hand.

"You have improved a lot," The Ancient One commented, drinking her usual afternoon tea.

"Thanks," I smiled, as I continued my cycle of opening and closing portals to increase my speed doing so.

"Any new missions you have in mind?" The Ancient One asked, making conversation.

"I will travel, find more Hydra bases, and well, you know the rest," I replied, summoning a bomb from my inventory, "Eventually, I will get them all,"

"That sounds grand," The Ancient One chuckled, "Emily is starting transmutation tomorrow,"

I looked at her, a curious expression drawing on my face, "She is?" I asked, stopping my practice.

"Yes, she has quite a knack for it," The Ancient One nodded, "Soon, she might be the one protecting you,"

I chuckled, "I'll be happy as long as she can protect herself,"

"Well, that's any father's wish, isn't it?" The Ancient One replied with an amused tone. "So, when do you leave for your mission?" 

"Tomorrow," This time, I didn't feel bad for leaving, because I would come back every night, portals were quite convenient, meaning no matter where I was, I always had the option to go back home.

"That's quite soon, but understandable," The Ancient One commented, "I wish you the best of lucks, hunting the demons that haunt you, Mr. Walker."

"You can call me Alex, you know that right?" I chuckled.

"I know, but it sounds better Mr. Walker, doesn't it?" The Ancient One replied with a smirk, leaving the room. That was a woman I would never understand, she was friendly yet you never felt like her friend, she was caring, yet you never felt entirely safe around her, all and all she was a walking mystery. 

"DAD!" And that's Emily. "I am starting transmutation magic tomorrow!" Emily exclaimed in an elated tone, as she tackled me into a hug, behind her, Goose came into view, purring.

"I am happy for you," I smiled, patting her in the head, as Goose rubbed her face on my leg saying hi. 

"Wanna celebrate? The Ancient One gave me a pizza coupon she had in her office," Emily offered.

"Sounds good, but not today, I am leaving to do something," I said, kissing her forehead, "Worry not, I will more than not sleep in my room here, but… some days I might not be here,"

"You're going after them, right?" Emily muttered.

"Yes," I nodded.

"Will you be okay?" Emily asked, and I smiled, hugging her tight.

"Emily, Hydra can't hurt us anymore," I was now beyond their reach, and I would make sure they learned that.

"Ok," Emily smiled, a sad smile. "Don't let those baddies hurt you,"

"I won't," I grinned, "They won't know what's coming. At this Goose purred, meowing to get my attention.

"Yes Goose, they shall fear your name too," I nodded.

Goose purred happily at that.

"Take this," Emily said, handing me a small coin, "The Ancient One said is for luck, so… it might help you," 

[Coin of the Seven Lucky Gods - Tier Unknown - It grants the owner 15% extra LUK when consumed.]

"Thanks," I smiled, putting the coin on the inventory.

"You're welcome!" Emily smiled, grabbing Goose from the floor as she noticed the time on the clock of my room, "I need to go, I'm late for class!" and with that she ran away, taking Goose with her.

"You knew she was going to give me the coin, didn't you?" I asked, feeling the Ancient's One presence as I did so.

"It was a possibility," The Ancient One replied, "You are getting good at feelings my presence,"

"Well, you did tell me you were going to test me on that, so… I studied," I winked, walking out of the room.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next morning, I woke up and had a big breakfast, then after hugging Emily goodbye, I opened a portal to Canada, my next target to cleanse from the grasp of Hydra. In Canada all I had to do was get on few planes, encountering the map, and well, the next step was easy, meaning all I had to do was go to the airport, if my calculations were right in two weeks, flying to every corner of the country in commercial flying I would know it all about Hydra Canada, also known as the polite division of Hydra, ok enough stereotypes, time to walk out of the airport bathroom, which was where I had opened my portal.

"OH MY GOD!" As soon as I opened the bathroom door of the stall I had teleport in, I saw a couple having sex.

[Jeremy White LV 9], [Andrea Sanchez LV 11]

"Hmm, not the best place to do it," I hummed, as the couple scurried to get dressed.

"Where did you come from?!" the man asked, or rather demanded.

"From the bathroom… I mean… you just saw me walk from the stall," I pointed at the stall.

"I checked before… you know!" The man hissed, as his girlfriend… no, it can be the girlfriend, bathroom sex on a airport? That's more like a fling, or prostitute, or a girl with really low standards.

"Before you know? you mean before you started FUCKING? Please don't hold back from saying it, we are both adults," I rolled my eyes, "Well, I am off to my flight, though a piece of advice, get a motel, sex on the airport bathroom? That's sad, on many levels," I chuckled, tossing the man fifty bucks for a cheap motel, "Today's on me, have fun like it was intended, on a place that won't get you arrested, then again, maybe you are into that, so I won't judge," I shrugged, walking out of the bathroom.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canada was surprisingly clean of the disease known as Hydra, well as clean as they could be, as clean as anyone could be considering everything. And so far in the two weeks I've been coming and going off Canada and Nepal, I have managed to discover 69 bases, which was literally nothing compared to what the amount the USA had at one point, which made me wonder how many bases did Germany had, I mean they started there, I think, I never read about Hydra and their beginnings, never really cared about them, until this world happened.

Anyway, now that I knew where all the bases in Canada were located with precision, it was time to bomb them, so, one by one I started to open the portals, dropping my holly jolly Christmas gifts like Papa Noel on crack, ho ho ho on them bitches. I continued doing this, until in one of the bases, I saw something as I was about to drop the bomb, a glimpse of information in one of the computers that stopped me from bombing the place.

The location of the Winter Soldier, the only one they still had. "Well, ain't that interesting," I smirked, putting the bomb back in my inventory as I jumped through the portal into the base.

"Intruder!" Six seconds to notice me, not bad I suppose.

Without stopping, I looked at the Hydra agents raising their guns, as I made my way to the computer where I had caught the glimpse of information about Bucky and his location, then with a quick glance, I memorized where Bucky was, according to the computer, he was in one of the Siberian bases, as I did this, they all started shooting at me, but I paid them no mind, the Eldritch Shield would take care of any attacks. "Alright, I have what I need." I nodded, dropping the bomb on the floor as I opened a portal out of there. "Enjoy~" I waved at them, as the portal closed, seconds later, a big explosion was heard in the distance. 

Now, the question was, do I kill Bucky, or try to save him, as I am now, both are very possible, "I guess, I will know when I see him," I muttered, opening a portal to Siberia, a few miles away from the coordinates I had seen in the computer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Outside the base in Siberia, I used [sight] to assess the situation within, and so far, I saw nothing that would make my mission extremely difficult, in fact, it would be a breeze for what it looked like. "Now where are you Bucky," I muttered, looking through the place, stopping when something caught my attention, a dot moving on my minimap, using [Sight] I changed my view to that moving dot, seeing none other than Bucky Barnes getting back from a mission on his motorcycle, meaning, I could bomb the base, and deal with him. "Hello there," I grinned, opening a portal to where he was.

Stepping out of the portal, I stopped his motorcycle with my telekinesis, shattering the tires with ease. Outside, the night was cold, as a winter-like chill permeated the air, I guess that's Siberia for you.

Bucky, who had just now recovered from the sudden intervention of my telekinesis on his bike that had made him crash against a tree violently, started shooting at me with his assault rifle, all while I opened a portal to the base a few miles behind us, dropping one of my merry jolly holly bombs inside the base, I really didn't need to focus on Bucky right now, my [Eldritch Shield] was more than sufficient to stop his bullets.

Seconds later after dropping the bomb, a big explosion was heard at the distance, as Bucky glared at me in realization, "It was you… you are the one destroying our bases," 

I smiled, as innocently as possible, "I am," I nodded.

"I will kill you," Bucky stated, with a growl as I inspected his level, [Bucky Barnes LV 134] Oh, he had leveled up, good for him.

"Do we have to do this Bucky?" I inquired, "Hydra will soon be no more, I can help you… you know?"

"Alex Walker.", the Winter Soldier replied "You are nothing but a broken tool, a reckless murderer who leaves a trail of blood everywhere he goes. Today, I will end your life." funny coming from Mr. Brainwash.

I almost chuckled at his bravado. I knew in terms of physical prowess he was stronger than me, but I wasn't only a warrior, I was also a mage, I guess what I am trying to say is... who brings a gun to a magic fight.

"Very well then," I sighed, "Shall we?" though, I was curious, curious of finding out how far away were our physical might, so for a bit, I would test my might against him, I mean, I could always stop him with my magic, or telekinesis, right now, I just wanted to have some fun. "But first," I winked, breaking his guns with telekinesis, what I wanted was an old fist fight, no guns allowed.

With growl showing his annoyance, Bucky quickly closed the gap between us, darting at me with lethal precision, sending a flying kick my way. Seeing through his attack, I caught his foot as it arrived, only to receive a kick from the second foot on my chest.

"Ok, this is fun," I chuckled, much to his surprise. 

"You are crazy," Bucky scoffed.

"True," I nodded, rushing at him, using my momentum to punch his face with a [focused strike].

In pain, Bucky staggered back. But soon turned around, using his metal arm to punch my guts, breaking a few of my ribs in the process, then as I doubled over in pain he kneed my face with savage strength, throwing me into the snow, once on the snow, gasping in pain, he jumped on me and started to choke me with his metal arm, as I started to question my choices, why was I even doing this? 

"Ok, time to use magic," I sighed in a strained voice, nose bleeding on the snow as he continued to choke me. It was time to play on my terms, I had already tested my strength, and while I could win in the long run, it would be painful, and I wanted no pain. "Well, that's enough," I roared, breaking his hold with my telekinesis, then using my [Eldritch Whip] I wrapped him with lasso, sealing his movements immobilizing him in place, with sigh I approached the struggling Bucky, slamming my palm to his chest, summoning the Eldritch power within me to pull his spirit out. "Should've started with that…" I chuckled.

{What… in the actual fuck!?} The disembodied voice of Bucky spirit growled, floating around me angrily.

"Shut it," I sighed, healing my wounds with a potion.
