(I know Tony graduated young but I'm changing that for the sake of the story.)

Liza's P.O.V

10 years


"Elizabeth." I heard Mary call.

"Coming Ma'am." I yelled back. I stood from my table and headed down stairs.

When I entered the main hall I saw Mrs Stark and a boy a little older then me.

"Liz." Mrs Stark stood and hugged me.

"Hello. I've missed you." I murmured hugging back as she picked me up.

"Come on. Lets get you home." She said walking back to the boy. "This is Tony. He'll be your brother now."

"Home? Brother? I don't get it. My home's gone Mrs Stark. You can't bring dead people back to life. Soldat said so." I said.

"You're coming home with me." she smiled as we all walked out the orphanage. A man was out side putting my things in a car.

"Where's that?" I asked.

"New York."

"But Mama and Papa are buried here. And Soldat will get worried if I disappear." I said.

"It will be ok. Soldat already knows your leaving an you can visit your families graves when ever you want." she said putting me in the car. Tony got in the other side. During the ride I just sat staring out the window. I then breathed on it and begun drawing. I drew mum without her head and dad with a knife in his heart. That's how they died.

"What you doing?" Tony asked and I showed him. He looked very pale. "Why'd you do that?" He asked confused.

"Soldat said that ignoring problems just makes them worst. Soldat's an assassin, he protects me from bad men. Some weird spy organization who want me dead. He said anyone who sees him protecting me must be dealt with because the bad people whole take him away from me. He said the good people will help me though. He said that the good people didn't trust him. He said-"

"I get it he tells you stuff. Who is he?"

"Soldat is..." I paused thinking. He said once. I know he did. "Soldat is... Soldat is a soldier. Soldat once fought in wars... for his best friend. They were a team. Soldat is Soldat. Soldat..."

"What's his name?"

"Soldat is... James... James Buchannan Barnes." The car suddenly jerked to a stop.

"How do you know that name?" Mr Stark asked.

"Soldat is James."

"James Buchannan Barnes was soldier in world war 2. He was the best friend of Steve Rogers. An old friend of mine who died in the war."

"James said he knew a Steve once. He said he was a punk, he said he was captain... Was Steve a Captain?" I asked.

"Yes." Mr Stark begun driving again. "The Dr say this Soldat person isn't real. They say you're unstable but how you know that name.... It doesn't make sense."

"HYDRA..." I said looking out again, "I wonder. Who has Soldat now..."

"What do you mean?"

"Zola... He's still alive, Soldat said Zola isn't a human anymore. An intelligence to work for Hydra... He is hiding. Yet is still in control. Where is it? Russia. Sokovia. Where are they. Russian... He speaks Russian, The words are Russian. Zhelaniye. Rzhavyy. Semnadtsat'. Rassvet. Pech'. Devyat'. Dobroserdechnyy. Vozvrashcheniye na rodinu. Odin. Gruzovoy vagon." I recite the words he once told me.

"They have no relevance between them. They're random." He scowled confused.

"I don't know. Ask Zola or who ever created it." I huffed.

"I'm confused. Who's Zola and James Dad?" Tony asked.

"People who died during WW2."

 "Then how does Elizabeth know about them?" He asked.

"I don't know Tony." He sighed as we stopped at a manor. We got out and walked in. Mr Stark immediately disappeared into his office. Tony went to his room and Mrs Stark sat on the sofa with me.

"Liza, you'll be going to school with Tony from now on, okay? He'll protect you from everyone." Mrs Stark said.

"Tony, big brother now?" I asked.

"Yes. How about you go find him?"

"Okay!" I hopped off the settee. I then ran up stairs and down the hall to Tony's room.

"Tony?" I knocked.

"Come in Liz." he called. I walked in to see him sat at a desk, I decide to go and sit on his bed though. "You okay?" Tony asked throwing a worried look over his shoulder before turning back to his work.

"I'm fine, mama and papa wouldn't want me to be sad and I've had a month to deal with it. I'm alright now. Can I read one of your books again."

"Sure. You know where they are." I got up and went to Tony's book shelf. I grabbed a book he had set in a futuristic fantasy setting. I then went back to his bed to start reading.


No P.O.V


After about 30 minutes Tony picked up his notebook and pen and sat on the bed next to Liz as he continued to make notes on his experiment.

So when Mrs Stark came to get the two for dinner she found them curled up together asleep. She decided to leave them to sleep, removing the books and pulling the blanket on them.
