ONCE UPON A TIME, there was a land far far away where a young prince had been born. Steve had been a sickly child straight out of the womb. Too skinny, too weak, too prone to sickness. His parents, the king and the queen, feared that he would not live long. In their minds, there was only one thing they could do to save their child. Employ the use of magic. On the day of his christening, the king and the queen invited three fairies in hopes that their gifts may make him healthy. The first fairy, Chester Phillips, gave Steve the gift of strength so that he may never be looked down upon again. The second fairy, Peggy Carter, gave Steve the gift of courage so that he may always stick up for what it right. The third fairy, Howard Stark, was about to give his gift when—
Oh no.
Red Skull crashing the christening was not in the king and queen's plans. The entire hall stilled as they watched him stalk into the room. He walked up to the cradle that held baby Steve, looking down at the child. "I would like to give a gift," he said.
"He doesn't want your gift," Peggy hissed.
"Doesn't want it? Oh, but he shall have it," Red Skull smirked. "A shame, though, that he doesn't want it. It could've been grand, but now...My gift shall that, on his twenty-first birthday, he shall be struck down by a sword and sent into an eternal sleep."
And just as quickly as he came, he disappeared.
Everything changed from that moment forward. Fearing that Steve could not be protected in the castle, his parents sent him off to be raised by the fairies. If it came to it, they could use their magic to keep him safe. Meanwhile, while impractical, the king and queen rid the kingdom of all of the swords, melting them down and transforming them into other weapons and armor. They would not risk their son coming until contact with one until after his twenty-first birthday.
The years went by quickly, Steve learning of his heritage and that he would soon be king. But they never told him of the curse. They feared that if they spoke it to him, it would be fulfilled. So, they kept him in the dark, praying that it would just come to pass.
His twenty-first birthday soon arrived. And to the fairies horror, Steve was nowhere to be found. They feared the worst, that Red Skull had gotten to him and that now he was in a sleep he would never wake from.
Little did they know, Steve was perfectly fine. He was an adventurous sort of fellow, and he loved to wander the woods. And it seemed, he wasn't the only one.
