The next night, Diana puts on the dress and heels Steve laid out for her and goes to this expo with them.
She stares in amazement at all the new things, "Ladies
and gentlemen, Mr. Howard Stark!" The woman on the stage announces, pulling her attention away from her surroundings.
"I love you, Howard!" Someone in the crowd yells.
A man steps out and kisses the woman, he then waves. "Ladies and gentlemen, what if I told you that in just a few short years, your automobile won't even have to touch the ground at all?" The crowd gasps. "Yes. Thanks, Mandy. With Stark Gravitic Reversion Technology you'll be able to do just that."
The car starts to hover making everyone's mouths open in shock, "Holy cow." Bucky says softly.
Suddenly it shorts out and falls back into the he stage. "I did say a few years, didn't I?" He laughs.
"Hey, Steve, what do you say we show Diana how to dance...." Bucky turns to see Steve was gone.
"Wow...he's sneaky." Diana smiles.
"I know where he is." Bucky holds onto her hand as they walk to a recruitment center. They find him staring at a picture of a soldier. "Come on. You're kind of missing the point of our date with Diana... We're taking her dancing." He sighs.
"You go ahead. I'll catch up with you."
"You're really going to do this again?" Bucky sighs.
"Well, it's a fair. I'm gonna try my luck."
"As who, Steve from Ohio. They'll catch you. Or worse, they'll actually take you." Bucky shakes his head.
"Look, I know you don't think I can do this...."
"This isn't a back alley, Steve. It's war." Bucky's voice raise.
"I know it's a war." Steve matches his voice.
"Why are you so keen to fight? There are so many important jobs."
"What do you want me to do? Collect scrap meta in my little red wagon?" Steve asks.
"I'm confused..." Diana says softly.
"Yes. Why not?"
"I'm not gonna sit in a factory, Bucky....Bucky, come on. There are men laying down their lives. I got no right to do any less than them. That's what you don't understand. This isn't about me."
"Right. 'Cause you got nothing to prove." Bucky looks at Diana. "He keeps trying to enlist in the army."
"He got a right to try...just like you." Diana nods.
Bucky sighs, "Don't do anything stupid until I get back." He pulls him in for a hug.
"How can I? You're taking all the stupid with you."
"You're a punk." Bucky points as they pull away.
"Jerk."
"Come on Diana..." Bucky turns.
"Actually...I'm gonna stay with Steve. I'll find you soon." She smiles.
Bucky grabs her hand and kisses the top of it. "I hope you do." He winks and walks off.
"Don't win the war till I get there!" Steve yells, smiling up at Diana.
"I can hear really well....so whisper if something happens. I'll be there." She sits on a bench.
"I'll be back." He nods, walking up to the front desk.
After about ten minutes she hears him, "I'm in trouble."
Diana stands just as a man in a white coat walks in. "So, you want to go overseas, kill some Nazis?" He asks Steve, not noticing Diana behind him.
"Excuse me?"
"I'm Doctor Abraham Erskine. I represent the Strategic Scientific Reserve." They shake hands, he turns and smiles at Diana. "Oh!"
"She's with me." Steve nods at her.
"Would you like to wait out by the benches?"
"No." Diana walks past him a nod stands beside Steve. "I stay with him.
"Okay, that's fine." He smiles.
"Where are you from?" Steve asks.
"Queens. 73rd and Utopia Parkway. And before that, German. This troubles you?" Steve shakes his head. "And where are you from, Mr. Rogers? Is it New Haven, or Paramus, or..." he reads the file. "Five exams. In five different cities.."
Steve starts to get nervous, "That might not be the right file-"
"It is not the exams I am interested in. It is the five tries. You didn't answer my question. You want to kill Nazis?"
"Is this a test?" Steve asks.
"Yes."
"I don't like bullies, Doctor. I don't care where they're from." He nods at the doctor.
"There are already plenty of big strapping men in this war. What
they need now is maybe the little guys, yea?"
"Maybe. What do you do, exactly." Steve glances at Diana nervously.
"Let's say I believe there is great potential in every human. It's just a matter of bringing it to the surface." Erskine lays out Steve's file. He reaches for a stamp. "I can offer you a chance, only a chance."
"That's all I'm asking for."
"So, really, where is the little guy from?" The doctor holds the stamp above the file.
"New York City...Brooklyn" Steve nods, as Erskine stamps the file and hands it over. Steve smiles as it say '1A'. "But Diana has to come with."
Erskine laughs, "War isn't the kind of place you bring your girlfriend to." Erskine grabs the curtain.
Diana quickly uses her power to stop his hand, "I'm not his girlfriend."
He looks down at his wrist, seeing a golden power glowing around his wrist. "Where are you from?"
"I don't know..." She shakes her head. "But I guarantee you I am here to protect this planet."
"Well...we can't exactly tell anyone about this yet."
"Have her be your assistant or something...until she can get into the fight." Steve suggests.
"Sure....but we'll need to get her some new outfits."
