Time Travel

New Jersey (1970)

I stole some suits I saw from a office and I went to a hidden elevator that took me to put the Tessaract away. I made my way to the bottom and I put away the stone back.

"Zola!" I heard as I closed the case. I walked away. "Hey!" I heard footsteps behind me. I stopped and I slowly turned. I was stunned.

"Grandpa?" I whispered.

"Maria?" He whispers. I shook my head.

"Im Crystal."

"Im sorry, i thought you were my wife. You just look exactly like her." My grandpa laughs. "Crystal what?"

"Crystal Romanoff, sir."

"Interesting name." He stuck out his hand. "Howard Stark." I was i awed. My grandfather, right in front of me.

"Nice to meet you sir." I shook his hand.

"MIT, smart cookie." He laughs. i giggled as i looked at my fake ID. "Your father must be proud." I froze. Dad.

"He was." I said.

"Was?"

"He died. He died saving the world." I smiled at him. "i lost a part of myself that day, i cant get back. Hes my everything."

"Im sorry to hear that."I saw flowers on his person.

"Flowers?"

"Yeah, my wife is expecting and I spend a little too much in the office." He chuckles. Expecting? 1970? It was my dad. "Mind walking with me?" I shook my head no. I walked with him. It was awkward. I was just im shocked that I'm talking to my grandfather. He was telling me that my grandma and him were leaning to Anthony and we made it outside. "You have any kids Crystal?"

"I have a daughter."

"Whats her name?"

"Natalie Sarah Star-" i cut myself off. "Rogers."

"Beautiful name. You know Captain Americas last name was Rogers." I faked a laugh.

"Small world." He smiles.

"Your Husband must be over the moon for her."

"He really is." My grandpa smiles.

"Im just nervous you know, the kid isn't even here yet and there's nothing i wouldn't do for him." I tried not to break down. He walks in his car.

"Howard?" I turned around. He hummed. "You'll be a great." I said. "Just try to separate work from home." He frowned.

"Ill keep that in mind." He smiled. I walked up to him and hugged him.

"Thank you." Thank you for having my dad. If it wasnt for you, I wouldn't have the greatest dad. I pulled back from the hug. I coughed. "For what you do for this world." I walked away and into a corner and pressed the watch.

New York(2012)

It was a struggle to get to Bleecker street since, past me was fighting. I sneaked my way in, gave the time stone to the woman and headed to put way the stone away. I walked into the tower.

"Excuse me, you cant be here." I heard Footsteps came closer and I was turned by the one and only Steve Rogers. I gasped. "Crystal?"

"Thats me." He frowned.

"No youre-" he was interrupted by a call. He looked at me and then the case. He pushed me against the wall. "Who are you!"

"Wait!" I yelled. I dropped the case and put my hands up. "See? Let me go and I'll tell you." He lets me go and he takes the case away from me. "You need to trust me." I took a deep breath. "Im Crystal from 2023." Steve looks at me with blank stare. "Im being serious Steve."
