New York 1989
Elisabeth Stark was getting to old for this, she through as she rubbed a hand across her eyes cause all she wants was to get home and spend some time with her grand kids but as it was looking, she was not going anywhere anytime soon.
"What do you think?" She hears someone asking her brother asking her,turning her head towards her brother who were looking at her with a raised eyebrow.
"What do i think about what?" Elisabeth asked just as the doors to the conference room was pushed open and she turned her head to see Hank Pym walking towards them and a confused look showed on her face cause he was supposed to be in Moscow right now.
"Stark!"
"He doesn´t seems happy." Elisabeth said as she looked towards her brother before looking back at her oldest and dears friend.
"Hello, Hank." Howard said as he pushed his chair away from the conference room table so he could stand." You are supposed to be in Moscow." Howard said.
"I took a detour." Hank said as he reached his hand into the pocked of his suit jacked and pulled out a small glass vial that contained a clear red substance which he placed in on the conference room table in front of Howard." Through your defense lab."
"Tell me that isn´t what i think it is." Peggy asked as she looked over at Howard and Mitchell before she looked over at Elisabeth who were staring down at the ... with a shocked look on her face.
"That depends if you think it´s a poor attempt to replicate my work." Hank said as his eyes landed on Elisabeth and he shook his head at her cause he could not believe she would stab him in the back like that.
"I didn´t know anything about this Hank, you have to believe me." Elisabeth said as she sees the look on Hank´s face.
" Even for this group, that takes nerves." Hank said as he turned his head so he was looking at Howard and Mitchell.
"You were instructed to go to Moscow. May i remind you , that you are a soldier" Mitchell said with an annoyed look on his face.
"I am a scientist."
"Then act like one." Howard said." The Pym particle is the most revolutionary science ever developed. Help us put it to good use."
"I let you turn me into your errand boy and now you are trying to steal my research?." Hank said.
"If only you protected Janet with such ferocity, Dr. Pym.
"Watch it!" Elisabeth yelled as she angrily pushed her chair away from the conference room table so she could get too Mitchell but before she could get near him a hand grabbed a hold of her elbow pushing her backward.
"Elisabeth." Howard said as he turned around to stop her from going at Michell again.
"Ahh." Hank said before he leaned in over the conference room table and grabbed Mitchell by the back of his head and slammed his head hard down on the conference room table.
"Easy, Hank." Peggy said as she grabbed a hold of Hanks elbow as he pulled it back to hit Mitchell again.
"You mention my wife again." Hank said as he pointed his finger at Mitchell." I will show you ferocity."
Howard turned towards Mitchell who were already looking at him." Don´t look at me. You said it.
"I formally tender my resignation." Hank said as he looked towards Elisabeth." I expected more from you." He said with a hurtful tone in his voice.
"Hank." Elisabeth said with hurt in her own voice.
" We don´t accept it formally. Hank, we need you. The Pym particle is a miracle. Please. Don´t let your past determine the future.
"As long as i am alive, nobody will ever get that formula." Hank said as he looked over at Elisabeth and stared at her for a few second before he turned and walked out of the room.
"We shouldn´t let him leave the building." Mitchell said.
"You already lied to him. Now you want to go to war with him?" Peggy asked.
"Yes." Mitchell said." Our scientists haven´t come close to replicating his work."
"He just kicked your ass, full-size." Elisabeth said as she sat back down in her chair with her arms across her chest.
"Elisabeth is right. And do you really want to find out what it´s like when you can´t see him coming?" Howard asked Mitchell.
"I have known Hank Pym a long time." Elisabeth said as she looked over at her brother." He´s no security risk. Unless we make him one." Elisabeth said as she looked between her brother and Peggy.
" I am out." She said as she got out of the chair she had been sitting on.
"Where are you going!" Mitchell yelled after her.
"Home." Elisabeth yelled back as she pushed the doors open and walked down the hallway hoping to catch up to Hank.
"You are not going to do anything?" Mitchell asked as he looked over at Howard.
"What do you want me to do?" Howard asked with a confused look on his face.
"You do know where she is going and it´s not home." Mitchell said as he pointed his hand towards the doors she had walked out of a few second ago.
"I know." Howard said with a sad sigh." Cause he knew that Elisabeth was not going to let this one go anytime soon.
"She is going to betray you."
"Watch your mouth!" Howard yelled as he turned to Mitchell as he pointed a finger at him." Elisabeth is many things, but she is not a traitor so watch your mouth when you talk about my sister."
It had been a long day Elisabeth through as she opened the door to her daughters apartment and walked in and she closed the door behind her and called out for her daughter and a few second later a voice was calling out for her.
"Grandma!"
Elisabeth smiled as she sees her oldest granddaughter running towards her with her Captain America shield." I am surrender myself to you to you Captain Addy" Elisabeth said as she held her wrist closed together as she reached them out towards her granddaughter.
"You are so silly grandma." Addy giggled as she turned and ran down the hallway as she yelled out to her mother that grandma was here before she ran into to the living room so she could watch the end of the cartoon she had been watching when she had heard her grandma calling out.
Elisabeth walked down the hallway and she heard her youngest granddaughter asking her mom a question as she stopped in the doorway to the bathroom and she sees her daughter sitting on her knees beside the bathtub as she watch Alex trying to swim back and forward between soap bubbles.
"What do we have here?" Elisabeth asked with a smile as she folded her arms across her chest.
Alex let out a surprised gasp as she hears her grandmothers voice and she wiped the soap bubbles away from her face as she turned her head towards the door.
"Grandma!" Alex yelled.
"Hi ma." Karen said as she quickly looked towards her mom before turning back to Alex.
"Hi dear." Elisabeth said with a smile.
" What´s wrong?" Karen asked as she sees the sad look on her mom´s face.
"Just Howard being Howard." Elisabeth said.
"What did uncle Howard do this time?" Karen asked as she ran a wash cloth over her daughters soap covered face.
"Howard and Michell tried to steal Hanks invention."
"Tell me you are kidding?" Karen asked.
"I wish i was." Elisabeth said with a sigh.
"What is a invention?" Alex asked as she looked between her mother and grandma.
"It´s means you.." Karen was trying to explain when the sound of glass breaking could be heard and Karen rubbed a hand over her face and a sorry could be heard coming from inside the living room.
"I am gonna kill uncle Howard for giving her that shield." Karen said as she looked over at her mom.
"How bad can it be?" Elisabeth asked.
"Lat week she took it with her to the park and she throw it and it almost took out a few kids before it got stuck in a tree." Karen said." It is not funny ma." Karen said as she hears her mom laughing.
"I know he was your friend ma but you and uncle Howard has got to stop telling her all theses stories about the guy before she become a danger to everyone around her.
"I am sorry." Elisabeth said with a sad look on her face as she through about Steve cause that always made her think about Bucky.
"I didn´t mean..."
"I know ma but..."
"Look at me i am Captain America!" The heard Addy yelling and the both turned towards the doorway to see Addy standing there holding her shield close to her body.
"Captain, Captain! "Alex yelled as she slammed her hands down into the bath water making it splash all over her mother.
"Alex!" Karen yelled towards her youngest daughter before turning towards her oldest daughter." You!." Karen said with a finger pointing at the shield." It is your bed time and no you can bring the shield with you to bed."
"Mom!"
"Addy." Karen said.
"Fine." Addy said as she walked towards her bedroom.
"Let me." Elisabeth said as she turned and followed after Addy into her bedroom.
"Grandma?"
"What is it Addy?" Elisabeth asked as she tucked the blanked around her small body.
"I want to become Captain America when i grow up."
"You do?"
"I want to be brave like he was." Addy said with a sad look on her face.
"Hey, hey." Elisabeth said as she sees the sad look on Addy´s face." You are brave baby. What makes you think you are not?"
"Some at the kids at school keeps on picking on me and i want to be brave and stand up to them but i am scared.
"Can i tell you a secret?" Elisabeth said and she smiled as she sees Addy nodding her head.
"When Steve was a kid many people kept on picking on him cause he was a really skinny kid."
"Really?" Addy asked with big eyes.
"Yeah, but that did not stop him from standing up for himself and that is what made him so brave, even before he became Captain America and i think you will make a good Captain." Elisabeth said with a smile before she turned and walked over and took the shield into her hands and walked over and placed it beside Addy´s bed.
"Sleep baby." Elisabeth said as she leaned down and placed a kiss on Addy´s head.
"Night grandma." Addy said as she closed her eyes.
Elisabeth smiled once again before she turned and walked out of Addy´s bedroom, not knowing that 20 years later that her granddaughter would become an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.s with the code name Miss America.
