Agent Peggy Carter was not expecting this to happen. Although, she was not expecting Howard Stark to be in possession of a 0-8-4 either. That was a complete shock.

Of course, she didn't find this out until he phoned her to come to his house in the wee hours of the morning.

"What is it, Howard," she said in annoyance as she and his butler, Jarvis, walked into the living room of his home. That was when Peggy saw the thing that was the cause of all of this. A child.

The girl was small, length wise and with weight. Her hair was brown and went to her shoulders. Her eyes were big and blue, and skin milky. In her hands, she held something thin and silver.

"I wanted to make sure that no matter what nobody would stop looking for Captain Rogers," he explained. "Also, I wanted to make sure that none of my weapons got into the wrong hands. So, I wrote a note and put it somewhere that I knew the future me would find. Apparently though, the future believed it would be a good idea to send evidence that nothing bad has happened,"

Everyone looked at the little girl who also had a cloth bag with her around her shoulders, a backpack. Her outfit consisted of extremely tight, pink pants and a purple dress with blue shoes. This outfit would not be appropriate for then.

"Show them the video," he said without looking at the girl. The child clicked a small, circle button on the flat thing and it light up, making Peggy and Jarvis jump back.

She used her fingers to manipulate it and pressed some buttons before turning it so they could see and pressing a triangle button on the light up part.

A man appeared that bore resemblance to Howard himself.

"Hi," the man started. "If this got to you, that means Alice did her job correctly, and for a two and a half year old that's good. Anyways, Howard I'm your son, Tony. I just found the note asking about the weapons and no. They've either been destroyed or the US military has them. Don't worry, I haven't let them get into the wrong hands." The man had a circular plate on his chest that was glowing blue. "Since I don't actually know how to get Alice back, I need you to put her somewhere where she'll be safe. I should probably explain who she is though.

"That is Alice Rogers." Peggy gasped slightly. "Well, she technically doesn't have a last name. You see, I don't want to give the future away but the SSR turned into another organization, and they created Alice with DNA of some classified agents… I don't know which ones but she has Captain Rogers's eyes so I say her last name is Rogers. She has been tested on a bit, I decided if she goes to 1946 she wouldn't be anymore. Don't test on her, she doesn't like it. Though, she doesn't really talk so I don't know what she does and doesn't like…

"Anyways, Alice there is pretty cool, so please take good care of her. Yeah, by the way, I'm not giving this away or anything but we found Captain America. So yeah, umm… have fun in the past I guess and I'll see you in the future? Bye."

They all stared at the screen as it stopped playing and the child pressed a button on the side of the thing. She looked around at all of them without saying anything.

"She looks like you, but does have his eyes," Howard said as he looked down at Alice. "Anyways, one of you needs to take her. I can't have a kid, my life is to publicised they'd know something is wrong."

"I can't, I have a wife," Jarvis said and both men looked at Peggy. Peggy didn't noticed as she stared at the child, trying to figure out if she had anything else of Steve's. All she had were his blue eyes, but that could change when she got older.

"I can't, I've never had a child," Peggy said defensively.

"Lie," Howard said instantly. "You gave birth while in England during the war but gave the child to you sister-"

"-I don't have a sister-"

"-Fine, a friend. The friend can't care for her anymore so she comes to live with you. Nobody will question it,"

Peggy had to think this over. She had never had a child, but she could lie. This child seemed to be a part of Steve, she could lie and say this. She could take care of this child from the future. Yeah, she could do that.

"Fine," Peggy said as she knelt down in front of the kid. "I can't believe they tested on her like a lab rat," Peggy muttered as she touched one of the girl's curls. She child smiled and looked down at the device in her hands. "We need to do something with this though, we cannot have future things lying around."

"How much was that, kid?" Howard asked. Peggy and Jarvis both gave him a look. Obviously a child would not know. "Over a hundred?" the girl nodded and leaned over to put it on the ground at her feet. "She'll need different clothes,"

Peggy looked out the window, it was light now. How long had they been there?

"I'll go out and quickly get some, I'll be back," she said before standing up. Howard nodded as he led the child to the couch, obviously thinking of a way to hide the device.

"Jarvis, give the lady a lift."

The two left and Peggy wondered how much trouble she was going to get in for this.

Before they had left, Peggy got a hat, sunglasses and a wig from Howard. She didn't want anyone to recognize her.

She walked into the store and quickly bought some children's dresses, pajamas, different types of clothing, food that the child would like, along with a teddy bear and blankets.

She decided that this was all she'd need for the moment, and paid. She wasn't happy with the price but tried to ignore it as she used Howard's money to pay.

When she got back she was carrying a couple of outfits and children's things to make this look more convincing.

"We used some of your money, Howard," Peggy stated as she looked over to see the two sitting on the couch, the device gone. "Where did the… thing go?"

"I hid it somewhere nobody would look. Now the timeline won't get messed," Howard explained. "We were getting bored though, well I could be doing something more productive,"

Peggy rolled her eyes. "Alice, come here." The child obliged and followed Peggy into a bathroom and allowed her to change her so she was in something more era appropriate.

Alice was compliant and allowed herself to be dressed like a doll.

"Time we go back." Peggy stated. Howard nodded and Jarvis drove them back to Peggy's apartment. Alice stared out the window, it was obvious she was trying to figure out why everything was different.

The two walked into the building undetected. And even got upstairs undetected.

Once inside, Peggy led Alice to sit on the couch. She was glad Colleen was out at work at the moment.

"We need some ground rules," Peggy stated. "First of all, you're going to have to call me mum since I am supposable your mother," Alice stared at her. "No drawing on the walls, no being loud, be a good girl. Okay?"

Alice continued to stay silent, but got up to look around at everything.

"Lord help me," Peggy muttered. The girl was curious, Peggy would give her that, and she didn't speak much which was nice. But she needed to know that the girl could prove that she was her daughter.
