While Bucky and Steve were talking to Peggy and a nurse who insisted on examining all of the unit. I saw just outside the interrogation room. The room behind the glass, and I started to listen in on how the Colonel twisted the story and made the Doctor talk.

After getting the information he needed I saw the Colonel head out and hid in the corner before changing back into my child self.

My lips thinned and I stealthy approached the interrogation one for one extremely happy for the training my sisters' forced upon me about stealth.

I opened the door calmly and basked in the confusion the doctor had, "What are you doing here child?" he asked even though I held the stance of an adult.

"Schmidt is definitely not a god. I assure you." I said calmly and saw the startled look on the Doctor face.

"He has the capabilities of a god child. But I am sure you wouldn't know that." The Doctor said and I felt a tiny smirk dance on my face.

I leaned in closer and saw that the Doctor was looking more startled and worried, "I do believe because guess what." I said making my voice go low and dangerous, "I am a child of two gods." I said leaning back with a smirk when the Doctor looked terrified and definitely seemed pale.

"I can assure you that when, not if but when, you die you will be going to a dark dangerous place for people who do very bad things. I believe helping out a psychopath goes under that category, i'll see you in hell." I said with a smirk before going out of the room with a smirk on my face at how pale the man had gone.

I changed back before any cameras that Howard Stark installed would catch me, and then carefully followed the sound of voices until I found that the main room was filled with all the soldiers.

"Johann Schmidt belongs in a bughouse. He thinks he's a god and he's willing to blow up half the world to prove it. Starting with the U.S.A." The Colonel started

"Schmidt's working with powers beyond our capabilities." Howard said as I pawed his lap to sit in, out of everyone there for some reason he was the most compliant with letting my lay down and sleep in his lap.

Maybe it's because half the time he doesn't notice that I was there and continued to work on whatever it was he would be working on at the time.

"He gets across the Atlantic. He'll wipe out the entire eastern seaboard in an hour." the Colonel had finished after Howard

"How much time we got?" one of the Howling Commandos asked

"According to my new best friend, in twenty four hours." he replied back

"Where is he now?" someone else asked who I didn't feel like identifying

"Hydra's last base is here. In the Alps. 500 feet below the surface" Colonel said passing around photos of where Schmidt is located.

"So what are we supposed to do? It's not like we can just knock on the front door." One of the Howling Commandos asked, I think it was the guy that doesn't actually talk that much.

"Why not? That's exactly what we're going to do." Steve said glancing at Bucky who nodded his way in agreement.

After Steve further explained his plan and everyone was in agreement, I moved to stand on the table to make my way to Steve and tried to hide the wince my feet were feeling.

"What's wrong with Percy?" Peggy asked after everyone was dispersing, going their own way only leaving Bucky, Steve, Peggy, and Howard.

"What do you mean?" Steve asked when I carefully moved on the table hoping to not hurt my paws more.

"He's kinda limping." Peggy said making me mentally wince, I didn't want them to know!

Steve watched me for a moment and I shifted from paw to paw and saw him frown. It also seemed Bucky had come to the same conclusion because a moment later he said, "It must have been when he closed the door. I mean his size, and landing on his feet might've hurt him."

I tried not to glare too much at Bucky but felt myself being picked up and my paws being examined. I struggled before I heard Steve whisper, "Oh stop struggling you." in a teasing voice making me huff and do exactly that.

"They look a little raw." Steve agreed and handed me to Howard who motioned for him to look. What was I? A handbag? This is so not cool.

"Just hold still for a little longer buddy and stop squirming." Howard said as he looked at all my paws, "I'm no expert but I think he just needs to not walk on them for a little while."

"What about the mission?" Steve asked when I was returned to his arms, and okay as long as I wasn't moved again I was happy because believe it or not, he was a very good dog petter.

"He can stay with Howard." Peggy said leaving no room for discussion even when I let out a pitiful whine and gave her the puppy dog look.

She didn't seemed fazed though, and this was not good. She was stronger than she appeared...not good at all.  

Note: So the next chapter will probably be the second the last chapter for this book. Obviously in the last chapter I told you that this is technically going to be three books.
