The Wielder Of Ember

Funeral's and Bucky Chapter 43

Sam and Rory were sat on either side of Steve giving him the support he needs

The three of them had their heads bowed down in respect as the servers went on

Steve was in his own world thinking about Peggy

But Sam and Rory snapped out of their thoughts when

and now, I would like to invite Sharon Carter to come up and say a few words -Priest

Sharon walks up to the stand

Steve -Rory says lowly

Sam nudges him

Steve looks between them confused

both of them nod to the front

Steve looks to the front and he his confused look turns to shock on seeing Sharon walk up to the Mic

Margaret Carter was known to most as a founder of S.H.I.E.L.D but I just knew her as Aunt Peggy -Sharon pauses for a moment to clear her throat a little fighting the tears

Rory's heart went out to her

Ahe had a photograph in her office. Aunt Peggy standing next to JFK, as a kid. That was pretty cool. But it was a lot to live up to... Which is why u never told anyone we were related... I asked her once how she managed to master diplomacy and espionage. In a time when no one wanted to see a woman succeed at either -Sharon pauses thinking back to it with a small sad smile

She said, Compromise where you can. But where you can't, don't. Even if everyone is telling you that something is wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move... It is your duty to plant yourself like a tree. You look them in the eye and say. No, you move -Sharon

Steve then went deep into thought

Rory and Sharon's eyes then meet and Rory shoots her a small smile and a nod which Sharon returns before she goes and retakes her seat

After The Service

Sam was waiting for them near the back of the Church

Rory and Steve stood side by side as they looked at the Photo of Peggy which was still on display

What did Wanda think about you coming here with me -Steve

She encouraged me to come. She knew I wanted to come and Support you -Rory

Where do you stand on The Accords -Steve

With you. I agree with you completely Steve -Rory

I saw what Ross did back there. He was trying to get under your skin -Steve

Why do you think Wanda all but climbed into my lap to keep me from snapping -Rory

Steve chuckles a little

Am not sure what I would do if I ever lost Wanda like you lost Peggy... Am sorry Steve -Rory

Thank you. Hold on to her... What you two have is special -Steve

Rory smiles at this

Don't plan to. Am with you 100% as is Sam. We're following your lead on how to tackle all this -Rory

and Wanda -Steve

Right now she wants to be kept out of it but I have been told to go to her/Call her if I get backed into a corner -Rory

Steve nods

No one really wants to deal with an angry Wanda -Steve

Heels walking towards them is heard
