The Bounty
Summary: James Buchanan Barnes, leader of the Red Star Motorcycle Gang, was wanted for aggravated assault, vandalism of federal property, and perjury. A date had been set for the trial and he told his lawyer he’d be there. To nobody’s surprise, he didn’t show up, and he hadn’t been seen around town since. A warrant for his arrest was immediately issued. That was three months ago.

James, or Bucky as you had called him growing up, was your brother’s best friend. They were always getting into trouble, picking on you, only to turn around and threaten to kick anybody’s ass should they mess with you. When they were seventeen, they dropped out of high school and started a club. Eighteen months later, the club had eight members. They rode around town like they owned it, getting into even bigger trouble than when they pulled your hair and locked you out of the house when it was raining.
Their lack of respect for the law drove you crazy, so you did the next best thing to becoming a police officer; you became a bounty hunter. You worked hand-in-hand with the officers your brother and his friends were hellbent on fucking around with.
One by one, no matter the charge, you would bring in a member of the gang, and the very next day they’d walk out, cocky smirk on their face. It was difficult to get the charge to stick when they had a judge or an officer in their back pocket. It was never proven, just a rumor, but you had no doubt they were playing dirty.
It shouldn’t have surprised you, Bucky disappearing when it was time to face the music. After all, that was what he did best.
Omg!!! Please tell me there’s more!!!!
@buckysforeverprincess-ficrecs Biker!Bucky will definitely get written more. As for this, it was meant as a one shot.
