The last thing that he remembered was the cold air and directing the Hydra aircraft toward the icy waters.
The cold...It was horrible. Millions of sharp and dull knives stabbing him everywhere. It felt like his body had gone numb but he could still feel the pain.
Everything was dark and he wasn't sure how long he'd been unconscious. He felt like it had been days, weeks, even months, of just lying there without a care. It was easier to just stay this way.
The world was quiet, unmoving and frozen all around him. Quiet and cold.
It seemed like this would be his resting place for all time. No one would ever find him. He'd be all alone. Just like he was when his parent's died and before he met Bucky.
Yes, this would be his resting place. Alone in the middle of nowhere where he would never be found and his only company being the silence and cold.
He could finally rest after a life time of fighting and struggling.

Slowly, very slowly, his eyes cracked open. They quickly shut when a blinding light hit them. It was too bright but he had to know where he was.
Slowly opening his eyes again, Steve found the bright light less harming. His head swam which caused his vision to slant and blur. It made his stomach roll but it soon passed and his vision quickly cleared.
Steve looked down at himself and noticed that he was lying in a reclined bed. It was soft and warm. Completely different from what he was feeling moments ago.
"What the..." he muttered with hoarse voice. He lightly winced as he felt the strain on his throat. Looking up, Steve quickly recognized the room he was in. He'd spend enough time in one when he was younger.
He was in a hospital.
A small creak caught his attention. He looked to the side to see the door to the room open. A single person walked into the room and froze when they noticed the person in the bed was awake.
It took Steve a second to recall who this person was.
"Howard?"
"It's me pal." Howard confirmed with a small smile as he shut the door and walked over to stand by Steve's bed. "Glad you still remember me."
"What do you mean?" Steve asked confused. "Where am I?"
"Steve," Howard started as he sat down next to the bed. "We don't know how it was possible but...somehow you survived the crash. As well as being frozen alive. You've been trapped in that ship, inside ice, for five years."
