Steve eagerly shinned one of his black dress shoes with a happy smile on his face. In one day, he would be returning to a place that still made sense to him and was still familiar. He felt his smile grow a little more as the thought kept repeating in his mind.
He had re-enlisted into the Army.
Steve was very excited to be returning to the place where his life as Captain America started. Not many things had changed about the Army. The biggest thing he would need to get use to was that women were allowed to join. It would certainly be interesting.
Looking at the shoe in hand, Steve smiled seeing that it was shinned to perfection. Placing it down, he grabbed the remaining shoe.
"How long are you going to be gone again?"
Steve looked up and spotted Tony standing in the doorway with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Not long." Steve answered.
"You re-enlisted. You could be gone for up to four years. How long?"
"It's just temporary." Steve said. "Four months."
"Guess that means I'm in charge." Tony said with an amused look on his face.
"To hell with that!" Clint's voice shouted from down the hall.
Steve chuckled while Tony sent a glare down the hall where he suspected Clint was.
"Anyway," Tony continued turning back to the captain. "What are you going to be doing?"
"Helping train a few of the newer soldiers, maybe be sent to a few countries...I'm excited." Steve answered.
"You're crazy." Tony declared.
"It's the one place I know about." Steve said. "I'll know what everyone is talking about and there's not that much technology being used in the field. I think that's something you could benefit from."
"No way. I do just fine." Tony said.
"Just a suggestion." Steve said returning to his task at hand. "It's just...I see you use your brain more than anything and, personally, I think you could use a little hand to hand practice."
"You saying I'm weak?" Tony questioned with a dramatic expression. "You're saying that I can't handle being without technology?"
"I do." Clint said walking past them.
"Shut up." Tony huffed.
"He may have a point though." Steve said studying his shoe before continuing to shine it. "All I ever see you do is mess with some new gadget."
"You're just jealous because you haven't fully caught up to the times yet." Tony stated.
"Well, I won't have to worry about that because in a few days I'll be a place where I can easily outsmart you." Steve stated.
"Excuse me?" Tony asked in what sounded like a serious tone.
"All I'm saying is that I don't think you'd be able to handle Army life for more than two weeks." Steve said pausing in his shinning. "Face it Tony. You're too dependant on technology and your suit for a lot of things."
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Shut up bird brain!" Tony shouted down the hallway then turned back to Steve who had a smirk on his face. "I could too handle the Army for two weeks!"
"Want to prove that?" Steve asked.
"Yes!" Tony answered. "I'm going to join the Army for two weeks to prove that I can last without modern technology!"
