AN: since I been adding things to on other stories and wrote rewrites that I figure I may as well do the same with this story. So you that the children story originally came from my Lieutenant America stories, if you want to read those stories you can start with Lieutenant America. However, I spent more time with the children stories and so Emily or Lieutenant USA is more developed than Lieutenant America. What I added is some of the things that happened before Captain America, including more of camp as well as things that happen after the war up till Arabella enters the story. My background story of the relationship between Arabella and Emily would take the story from there and it will go though my other children and that story would cover things that I didn't cover ok much of in the children stories.

Mary's POV, March 10th, 1920

Mary screamed in pain as she pushed again, she grabbed the hand of her sister as she pushed for the last time. On that last push that she heard the sounds of a baby, when the nurses put her baby in a blanket that Mary slumped back on the bed and let go of her sister's hand. One of the nurses walked over to her and handed her the baby boy she just gave birth to, there was a fine line of hair on top of his head that was a dark brown color. He cried again and managed to open his eyes of which were blue, he cried again and looked at her. Mary smiled down at the baby boy in her arms and was close to crying, he looks much like her of which she was glad of in a way. She knows that he would reminded of her of the only man that she loves and can't have even after death. Even though he would remind her of her lost that there was two things that her son gave her that could never be taken away from her and would never change.

"I love you James Buchanan Barnes, my little wind Prince, my little gift."

Joseph's pov, July 4th 1922

Most people would be out celebrating that day or at least in America, Joseph was not among them. It wasn't that he didn't have friends or anything, it was more because of the fact he was a bit depressed or saddened. It really depended on what the person thinks of it as, he thinks of it being both due to meeting a woman several months ago to about a year ago, actually it has been about nine months since he last saw her and nine months was about a year. A woman that he fell deeply in love with and she loved him in return, they were different in many ways from each other. But it was their love of nature and enjoying being with each other that brought them together among a few others things including the fact that they both been a bit lonely when they first meet and needed someone to talk to. The woman was a goddess, most people would assume that it was love of which it was, but in truth the woman he fell in love with was really a goddess. For he saw her as who she was when they first meet of which was one of the many things that appealed her to him. They both knew that at some point that the romance they share would come to an end, honestly he felt it ended too soon. It has been almost a year since he last saw her, the last time he saw her was when eh drove her to the Empire State Building from their date.

He tried to go and see her but due to the fact that he was a mortal that he could enter Olympus through the demigod way. It was annoying, he knows something was wrong or something happened at least and it was bothering him that he didn't know what was wrong or what happened to make her lost contact with him on purpose. As far as he knows that he did nothing get wrong on their last date, she even made the comment that it was the best night of her life or one of the best she had in a long time. Joseph stood up and was about ready to head his bedroom when the doorbell rang and he froze, he looked at his watch. It was eleven at night, he wondered of who would come here to talk to him this late, the only one who ever did was his former girlfriend. Joseph walked over to the door to his apartment and opened it, he nearly cried out of who he saw at the door with a couple of baby strollers next to her. It was his former girlfriend/goddess, Demeter, the goddess of harvest, seasons, agriculture, and fertility of the earth among a few others. She looked the same as last time he saw her expect the dress she was wearing. For her hair was still blond, long and wavy, her eyes were large and brown and she was wearing a bright green dress. However she was wearing a crown of woven corn leaves and she had adornments of poppies in her hair, of which he never saw her do before. There was a curved menacing looking golden sword on her belt but he could still smell her scent of a rainstorm that was over ing a field of Jasmine.

"Demeter, why are you here and why didn't you contact me?"

"I am sorry about that, but the thing is that I was with a child, two actually." Joseph looked at the two baby strollers nested to her and he wondered if she saw anyone else besides him.

"Who is their father?" Demeter looked at him carefully as he looked at her.

"You are." Joseph bit his bottom lip and looked at two baby strollers before he went over to them and looked at the two babies. One was a boy, he has the same blond hair that he and Demeter have, but when his eyes open that he has his blue eyes. The other baby was a girl, she has the same hair color and eye color as the boy, as Joseph looked at them that Demeter went on. "They were just born today, I named them Emily and Steve, you can decide on their middle names." Joseph looked at Demeter.

"Is that the only reason you brought them here for me to give them middle names?"

"No, the real reason is because I need to raise them and look after them." Joseph was stunned he looked at the two babies to who were looking at him cooing. Than he looked at Demeter.

"But I don't know how to raise a child."

"True, but you have to, it is against the laws for a god to raise their children unless if they are a god or goddess. It has been some time since I last gave birth and it has been even longer since I raised a child." Demeter paused and looked at Joseph. "But you have to raise them, unless if there was a special reason, I can't raise them. But there is no special reason." Joseph sighed and gestured around him.

"But how can I raise them, I am not sure if I could raise a child left alone two." Demeter smiled a little before she spoke.

"I know you can do it, you are a good and brave man, Joseph. That is one of many reasons I fell in love with you." Demeter looked at their two children before going on. "I can say this much that Emily and Steve are my gifts to you, a way for you to remember me by." Joseph looked away from Demeter.

"So we can't see each other again?"

"There is a good chance of that happening" Suddenly he felt a hand on his cheek and he looked at Demeter. "But I will be watching you, Steve and Emily as they grow." Demeter lowered her hand and walked down the hall leaving Joseph with his two children and wondering if he would see Demeter again, when she was no longer in his eye sight that he looked at Steve and Emily.

"Well, let's see what will happen now. For the time being though, I won't towel you about being demigods not until when you are older to start to realize that you are part of a bigger world." Joseph rolled the two strollers to start a new life, one that took a direction that he didn't expect.

For the next few years, Joseph watched his son and daughter grow, even though no monsters came to seek them that it was clear that they were his children as well as Demeter's children. Despite their small size and Joseph trying to get them to look healthier at least that they looked out for each other and fought back if they were being bullied. They refused to be bullied by the bigger kids, he could tell that he would make good leaders one day that was if they were given the chance. Those traits came from him but showing compassion and a respect for nature were traits that came from their mother. Even if those traits didn't make that it plain that they were children of Demeter, that the fact the planets grew more and become more healthier when they were around made that plain. When they reached the age of five that Joseph started to feel ill and that was also when Emily and Steve meet Bucky Barnes. He was glad that they made a friend at long last but a week after Emily's and Steve's birthday that he died and the last thing that entered his mind as he left to go to the underworld that he wished he could see them grow up more.
