Sequel to Dead Memories. Since the Serpent took up permanent residence on the sky, causing widespread panic and awe all across the globe, Bucky has been convinced that Loki would return, in one way or another.

Battling destructive forces with The Avengers forced Steve to stop his search for Bucky for much longer than he would have liked. Despite all odds they find him again, but in unexpected company and in a very different state of mind. Soon there's a lot more at stake than his long lost friend, but Steve simply cannot give up on him.
