I'll Find You

Ten

"Okay it's an hour fly to home base." Agent Coulson says as we take our seats in the aircraft carrier. "Um.." He claps his hands together and smiles. "Here. Just to fill you in."

We get a black technological map of different eras and videos. The all were trying to remake the super soldier serum.

"Why would these people try and remake it." I ask, zooming in on a video of 'The Hulk.'

"Same reason you wanted to." I looked at Steve, he could have ended up like this.

"Didn't work to well for this guy." Steve says as the monster throws and runs through barricades and police cars.

"He used Gamma radiation. No it didn't work so well." Agent Coulson laughs a little. "I really am a big fan of your work Dr. Kingston, were you really there when he was..... you know turned all big."

"That was the day my professor died in my arms. I wouldn't like to relive it." I said, and looked back down at the videos. I felt Steve grab onto my thigh and rest his hand there. I looked up and he smiled. I was kind of uncomfortable but it was nice of him to try and make me relax.

"Bruce Banner is like a real life Steven Hawking." Steve looks up confused and I smirk. "He's a smart person." He laughs and continues talking. "It's an honor to meet you, officially, I mean I met you.... I watched you sleeping. I mean..."

"I hope I'm the man for the job." Steve says smiling and Phil shakes his head. I felt bad for him, he was trying to hard.

"You are." I smile and I watch as Steve smirks. "Um we made a few adjustments to he suit."

"Aren't the Stars and Stripes a little......old fashioned."

"Everything that's happening, people might just need a little old fashion."

The carrier lands and the door opens slowly. Men and women raise and run around protecting and guarding and preparing flights. Steve and I both got off and looked around. A woman with short red hair walked up close to us and smiled as she reached out a hand for both of us.

"I'm Natasha," she shakes our hands and begins walking. "I hear you've become quite the fighter Dr. Kingston."

"She has." Steve says and I roll my eyes. "She practices every day."

"There was quite the buzz around here, finding you in the ice. I thought Coulson was gonna swoon. Did he ask you to sign his Captain America trading cards yet?" Natasha smiles,

"Dr. Banner." I say, and the man walks over smiling.

"You must be Doctor Kingston, and Captain Rodgers." Bruce says, and shakes our hands.

"Word is you can find the cube." Steve asks,

Bruce turns to look at both of us and rubs his hands together. He must have to try and keep calm. "Is that the only word on me?"

"The only one I care about" Steve smiles and pats him on the back.

"It must be strange for both of you. All of this."

"It all feels really familiar actually." I say, and Steve nods his head in agreement.

"You may want to step inside in a minute. It's gonna get a little harder to breathe." Natasha warns us and Bruce rubs his hands together more.

"Is it a submarine?" Steve turns around to ask as we they men walk towards he edge.

"Really? They want me in a submerged pressurized container." Steve smiles and reaches back to motion me closer. I do as he says and the helicarrier begins lifting instead of sinking. "Oh no. Much worse."

"Doctors thank you for coming." Fury says as we walk in.

"Thanks for asking nicely, so how long am I staying?" Bruce says and him and Fury begin talking. I move up to Steve as we watch the helicarrier fly through the clouds.

"I don't trust Fury." Steve turned to look at me in bewilderment. He looked back at Bruce and Fury talking and put a hand on my back to move us so we could talk quieter.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't think I'm here for the tesseract." I say and some eyes glance over at us. "HYDRA tried to force me to make or give any clues on the serum, they brought up the serum. Bruce Banner has tried the serum. You were the only candidate to be a success."

"Cap looks like you're up." Fury says and we turn around.

I finish putting in an earring and Steve walks behind me in his suit. I smile at him through the mirror and begin laughing. "Coulson wasn't lying when he said old fashioned." Steve lifted the necklace and places it on my collar bones before hooking the back. He smiled at me through the mirror and I stood up. The gown was black and had room for me to move and pull out a gun if anything were to happen. They placed silver around my neck and put my hair into a fancy half up half down. I had red lipstick on almost the same color as in 1940.

"You look beautiful." Steve says, and he reaches out his arm for me to hook around. I do and we walk out to the helicopter.

"Okay I'm in." I say through the earpiece. I walk in the gala and stare at one painting. I look around and see him walking my way.

"A beautiful painting is it?" I feel cold and shaken. I can't show it.

"It is. Have you seen his work before?" I ask, and Loki watches me like a hawk.

"Unfortunately no." He walks around my back and stands at the other side of me. "Your name is Evelyn Kingston is it not?" He says and I bite my tongue. How did he know.

"No, that's my grandmother." I say and smile, "she died in 1997." I turn toward him and he smirks. "I'm Elise Kingston."

"Shame. She was a wonderful scientist I hear." The violins stop playing as a man begins giving his speech. "Shall we?" He reaches out his hand. Do I not take it? Or would that blow my cover. I have to. I place my palm on his and he walks us down the stairs hand in hand. As soon as the speech is over and everyone claps. He pushes me down and grabs the speaker. He shoves a metal machine into his face and I stand up and kick him. He transforms into a new outfit with golden horns and cape.

People scramble to get outside and run. I pull out a gun and fire but he dodges. Loki grabs my wrist and pulls it back towards him. "Do you know a doctor Selvig? He has mentioned you." I kicked back and flipped him onto his back. He took his staff and a force of blue light shot me back and I flew against a wall. I felt my body burn with agony. I had fractured some bones. I pulled my purse to my chest and grabbed my serum from inside it. With the radiation from Loki's scepter this could do anything. But I was dying, a human cannot have that amount of force, heat and radiation and live. I can't die. Not today. It's a prototype it can kill me, or work. There is only two options. Take it and possibly die or die and not take it. I looked out the door and felt my body become weaker. It will enhance all of my capabilities. I'm not stable minded right now. I could become the next hulk or abomination.

I watched as Steve fought Loki. I couldn't die on him. I was his friend. One of his only friends. I stabbed my heart with the serum and injected it into my skin. I felt my heart beat slow and slow until I fell. And continued falling.
