"Hello, Agent Donovan." I looked up from the machine to Mr. Howard Stark. He had his smug look on his face.
"Morning, Mr. Stark." I greeted him back, politely.
"Exciting, isn't it? This whole thing?" He looked around the room at the machines, scientists and doctors. I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Yes, quite." I agreed with him, going back to machine.
"Well maybe after this we can go dancing and after, a late night fondue?" He asked me. I thought about it.
"I would love too but I don't dance." I told him nicely.
"Well we don't have to-""Mr. Stark, we'll have fondue then maybe a walk in the park." I interrupted him.
"That sounds great." He agreed with me.
"Good. Now, don't you have work to do?" I reminded him of his job. He blushed and nodded. I looked up as I heard the upper doors open. Peggy and Steve stood there looking at all of us. Everyone in the room got quiet as they looked at them. Dr. Erskine appeared next to me and I walked with him to Peggy and Steve as they finished walking down the stairs.
"Good morning." He greeted Steve. Then a flash went off. Dr. Erskine glared at the man with the camera. "Please, not now." Steve worriedly looked at the machine.
"Are you ready?" I asked him. Steve nods slowly.
"Good. Take off your shirt, your tie, and your hat." Dr. Erskine instucted. Steve did what he was asked and gets up on the machine. He lays down and takes a deep breath.
"Comfortable?" Dr. Erskine asked him, standing next to him.
"It's a little big." He looked down at his feet. Dr. Erskine chuckled and I smiled.
"It won't be later." I stated to him. He looked at me then to the doctor.
"You save me any of that schnapps?" He asked. Knowing Dr. Erskine, he probably didn't.
"Not as much as I should have. Sorry. Next time. Mr. Stark, how are your levels?" Howard walked over to us and looked at Steve.
"Levels at 100%." Dr. Erskine looked at him.
"Good."
"We may dim half the lights in Brooklyn, but we are ready as we'll ever be." Howard glanced at me. I shook my head and started to strap Steve in as he glanced up at me.
"Agent Carter? Don't you think you would be more comfortable in the booth?" I heard Dr. Erskine ask Peggy.
"Yes, of course. Sorry." Peggy said. I glazed at her as she started to walk to the stairs. She looked back as Steve and I shook my head at her. Steve took a shaky breath and I rubbed his arm.
"It's alright. I'll be down here the whole time." I reassured him. He smiled slightly at me.
"Thank you." I smiled back at him.
"Do you hear me?" I turned to Dr. Erskine with a microphone in his hand. "Is this on? Ladies and gentlemen, today we take not another step towards annihilation, but the first step on the path to peace. We begin with a series of microinjections into the subject's major muscle groups." Dr. Erskine started to explaim. Steve grabbed my hand quickly.
"The serum infusion will cause immediate cellular change. And then, to stimulate growth, the subject will be saturated with Vita-Rays." I slipped my hand out of Steve's and grabbed the needle. I pushed it into his arm and his face scrunched up in pain. I pulled the needle out, placing it back.
"That wasn't so bad." He complained. Dr. Erskine walked up next to me.
"That was penicillin." His eyes widened at me. I laughed at him and wiped away the blood from his arm.
