    Summary

    Now he sits in the room, waiting for Dr. Lyra to come back. They did a CT scan for some reason. But Buck didn't think too much of it, thinking they just wanted to be cautious. But when she came back into the room, he could tell something was wrong.

    "Hello again, Buck." Buck didn't let her finish, knowing she was just gonna best around the bush about it.

    "What is it?"

    "What do you mean?" Buck scoffs.

    "I know that look. That's the look people get when they have to tell me yet another thing is wrong with me, so what is it?" Dr. Lyra sighs. She always hated giving news like this to patients.

    "We did a CT scan as you know. And we found something that we originally thought was a blood clot in your brain." Buck nodded waiting for her to continue. He had a feeling he knew where this was going.

    "I'm sorry Buck. We found cancerous tumors in the temporal and occipital lobe in your brain." Buck closes his eyes and turns away. In a way he feels like he's known for a while. But he never thought it was serious. It's like, you know when your brain tries to trick you into thinking you have cancer, or internal bleeding or something, but you never actually believe it.

    Summary

    Post-NWH.
    The Avengers haven’t been much of a group since they defeated Thanos, since a large fraction of the team died, retired, went AWOL or MIA. It’s mainly up to Sam and Bucky – with some help from a still recovering Tony – to catch the latest enhanced serial killer roaming the streets of New York.
    Until a random college student from MIT named Peter Parker suddenly seems to have some answers.
    Sam is cautious. Tony is intrigued. Bucky is the voice of reason for a change.
