Nicole cussed as the alarm went off, JARVIS reporting that it was more of Hydra's robots. Steve gave her curious look as she ran the opposite way of their area. Natasha gave her a brave smile as she handed the German her new suit. Nicole groaned.

"Can I please kill him?"

"Maybe later. Good luck~!"

~•~

Steve ground his teeth as he blocked one of the robot's rays. The others weren't faring much better, and to make matters worse Nicole still hadn't shown up. But everyone, even the robots, were distracted when a motorcycle came out of nowhere. Nicole let it crash into one of the robots as she flipped off of it, but she wasn't fast enough to dodge a ray blast. Steve gave a shout before falling silent in shock and confusion. The military jacket the girl was wearing hung in shreds from her form, and as it fell to the ground the others were met with one hell of a view. Dressed in what could only be called one sexy pin-up outfit, Steve was totally shocked at his partner's appearance.

He turned to glare at Tony, whose mask had raised for him to get a good look at his evil creation. "What is that?"

Nicole pulled her shield off her uncovered back. "If jou vanna kill him get in line. I've got first dibs."

Steve muttered, looking at the woman again as she turned to him, and his face went redder than what should be humanly possible. Her one piece skin tight outfit consisted of a skin tight swimsuit like piece of a leathery spandex material that was open across the top of her chest and down to just above her navel. It was molded so perfectly to her body he barely noticed the Germanic coloring or Iron Cross. There were also German flag colored stockings connected to her outfit, and black elbow length gloves that matched her black combat boots. Her hair was also styled differently, giving Steve a better view of her angelic face.

"Nicole! What the hell?!" He looked like he was about to have a heart attack. "W-what are you wearing!?"

She shrugged and pointed at Tony. "Blame him."

"Tony!"

The man grinned and flew out of reach, but not out of range of Steve's high reaching shield. The iron man fell back to the ground lifting his mask against as he gasped for air. But Steve had bigger things to worry about than revenge. Nicole jumped headlong into the fight, surprising everyone with how much more effectively she fought now than before. But Steve didn't care: he jumped in and set to fighting alongside her. The others soon followed, and as soon as the last robot fell Steve turned a glare on Tony.

"You will die now."

Tony gulped but his fearful look turned into a grin. "You shouldn't have told me you liked her if you didn't want me to abuse it!"

Steve blushed fiercely as Nicole walked over. "I-I-I!"

"Bye now~!" Tony took off for the tower, leaving the others there. Natasha cleared her throat before dragging Clint away. Even Thor and the suddenly calmer Bruce ran off, leaving the two soldiers there. Nicole gave Steve a curious look, but he wouldn't look her in the eye, too afraid of what she would say. She reached out to touch him, but he slowly backed up. "Steve?"

"U-uhm… ah…"

The woman gently grabbed his hand, making him look at her in shock. Yet, he was surprised to find a smile on her lips instead of a frown. "Du magst mich?"

He nodded slowly, blushing brighter than before. "I-I was going to tell you but…"

"Nein, no buts Herr Rogers." she gave him a playful glare. "Ich bin Deutsch, ve may be hardasses but ve're not oblivious to zhe feelings of people around us. Zhe vay jou've been acting recently vas confusing zhe hell out of mich, but now I have an explanation." the glare gave way to a smile. "Und if it means anyzhing I like jou too, I vas just vaiting for jou to say somezhing first."

"W-well then…"

"Ve should get back to zhe tower."

"Yeah…"
