Camp Lehigh
Wheaton, New Jersey
April 2014"No..." Iola couldn't believe what she was hearing.
"This has to be some kind of recording." Natasha spoke up, but she too was shocked at the revelation they had just heard.
"I am not a recording, Frauelein. I may not be the man I was when the Captain took me prisoner in 1945, but I am."
On a screen to the right, a picture came to focus.
Arnim Zola.
Iola's head was spinning, her headache beyond the point of throbbing, it was just sheer, hot pain.
"It's nice to finally see you again, Voin."
The word struck her as if it were a blade slicing through her head. The pain travelled down her neck and flowed into the rest of her body. She dropped to the floor. Steve rushed to her side.
"Arnim Zola was a German scientist who worked for the Red Skull. He's been dead for years. What is the meaning of this?"
Iola clutched her head as her body began to shake. The pain was unbearable, feeling the pressure building on her head.
"First correction, I am Swiss. Second, look around you. I have never been more alive. You are currently standing in my brain, 200,000 feet of databanks. 200,000 feet of me."
Steve looked down to Iola's shaking body, she had started to cry, and she didn't even realise.
"What is going on with her?"
Zola spoke again, but this time, pulled up multiple images on the different screens.
"My dear Iola. My first creation. The information that S.H.I.E.L.D found regarding her background was true, however, it was not her grandmother."
Images of Iola in her uniform flashed onto the screen. The first showed Iola's portrait, in her military uniform, her dark stained lips showing determination and ambition. The second showed her located at Camp McCoy, with the 107th Regiment. Steve recognised Bucky in the group straight away.
"Iola was soul part of the 107th Regiment, and also a soul part of Project Rebirth." Zola continued.
Steve's eyes snapped to a different screen. Iola looked like she was in deep discussion, with none other than Doctor Erskine.
"She was in charge of making sure that no one would attempt to steal the serum, that very much flows through your veins."
"She was at the showcase. She was there when I received the serum." Steve announced.
Realisation washed over him.
I knew I recognised those eyes.
"Correct you are Captain. However, after Project Rebirth, one of our agents shot dead the Doctor, and you destroyed the last of the serum. We thought our chances were lost. But we were wrong."
