Later that night, Steve sat alone in his bedroom. He and the others had gone over hours of footage and documentaries about him as Captain America.

He still couldn't believe that he was the one in the documentaries. Fougth in world war two and helped lead the allied forces against the enemies.

As soon as he learned the years of the war and the approximate age he was in the footage, if he did his math right then he figured he was somewhere in his early ninties.

He found that very unlikly considering how he looked. He guessed he was around twenty three or twenty four years old. He was in tip top shape and didn't even look like he'd lost a single nights sleep in his life.

Knock, knock.

Steve looked up from the direction the knock came from. He stood and left his bedroom to the door of the suite. He opened the door and saw Natasha standing on the other side.

"How's it going?" she asked as she stepped past him and entered the suite.

Steve raised an eyebrow at her back but let it go as he shut the door.

"Simple enough, I guess." he answered.

"They made you watch everything?"

"Every second."

"What do you think about all of it?"

Steve took a second to absorb her question before answering.

"I find it both interesting and impossible." Steve answered. "There is no way that I could be that old."

"Then why would they show it to you?" Natasha asked.

"Don't know." Steve answered. "Kicks?"

"Steve." Natasha lightly scolded.

"Sorry but it is hard to believe. I mean, according to that information, I'm suppose to be at least ninty four years old. Do I look ninty four?"

"Give or take a year or so." Natasha answered with a smirk and saw the annoyed look on Steve's face. "Just kidding, Steve."

"Seriously Natasha. How can that be me when I look like I'm still in my twenties?"

"Let's not worry about that right now." Natasha said. "You have other things to worry about. You do know that they made you watch that in hopes of you remembering your life before the accident, right?"

"I figured it out." Steve answered.

"Did it help at all?"

"I remembered an old friend." Steve answered. "And another unpleasant person."

"Anything else?"

"Not really. Why?"

"You just have an important history and there's probably a few things you should remember." Natasha said.

"Do you guys know something that I don't?" Steve asked. "Besides the obvious."

"There is something that we do need you to remember." Natasha admitted. "It's something that only you know of because you were the only one to see it. A plan that Hydra made. Everyone has been careful with you about this but I think it's about time we come clean about it all."

"I had a feeling that you guys were keeping something from me." Steve said with a heavy sigh. "How important is this plan?"

"Pretty important." Natasha answered. "And with you being the only one that knows the plan and survived to tell it, it's even more important."

"Well, nothing else is coming back to me on its own unless I actually see it." Steve said. "Maybe I need to see the place where I saw this plan."

"No." Natasha said sternly. "Going back to that place may help you remember that plan but it might make you remember things you're not ready to remember just yet."

"Why are you concerned anyway?" Steve asked. "I thought you didn't like me to begin with anyway."

"Steve, I do like you. As a teammate and friend. One that is concerned about your well being." Natashs stated.

"That's a lot of care." Steve half muttered.

"Hey, be glad that I am concerned about you." Natasha almost snapped. "The others are just tip-toeing around you because they don't want to tramatize you. You should be glad that I'm at least giving you some answers."

"So why couldn't you have done it sooner and saved us all a lot of time?" Steve asked. "Maybe I would have remembered this plan a lot sooner if you had said something then."

"I wanted to let you recover from your injury. Super soldier or not, that was serious enough to put you in the hospital and have us all worried."

"Well thanks for your concern but I believe that I should go back to the place where I discovered this enemy plan. I'm going to go but if you want to just sit back then go ahead."

"Steve, I'm not going to let you go like this." Natasha stated firmly as she grabbed Steve's arm when he tried to walk away.

"Why?!" Steve demanded. "If this enemy plan is so important and I need to remember it as soon as possible, then why are you trying to stop me from trying to remember it?!"

Nathsha gave the soldier a weak glare. She wanted to yell at him, be mad at him, but she couldn't.

"Because I care about you and I don't want to see you hurt." she said before quickly walking out of the suite and vanishing down the hall.
