In the Canopy King, a young red haired woman with an inverted cross necklace oddly named: Parasoul was watching a TV show in her bedroom that starred a young girl with green hair and a man wearing some wrestling gear.

Beowulf: "With my strength and your green hair. We make an unbeatable team!"

Annie: "Close enough."

"So Beowulf is now being a good guy in the show?" The young woman asked herself. "This should be interesting." She than gasped as she heard a knock at the door and quickly turn off the TV. Taking a deep breath, Parasoul gained her composure and answered to be greeted with one of the Black Egrets: Adam. "Yes?"

"Sorry to bother you Princess, but figured you'd like to know that the researchers finished testing." Adam said rather formally.

"And?"

"Nothing, we tried everything. Bullets, bombs, psychical strength, and not even a single scratch. Whatever it's made of, it's indestructible."

Parasoul then thought about the little "discovery" the Adam was referring to. "So I see. Well, if you don't mind, I'd like to see for my-." Parasoul was interrupted when she noticed her Communications Officer: Molly was rushing towards the two with a panicked look on her face.

"Your highness." Molly began with a salute. "We have a problem."

Meanwhile, multiple Black Egrets were laying out cold on the ground while a man wearing a costume resembling the American flag nonchalantly walked passed them. This man was none other than Steven Rogers AKA: (Who else?). And he came for the "discovery" that the researchers were testing, which so happened to be his iconic shield.

Placing the shield back on his arm, Cap decided then would be a good time to leave. Unfortunately, that might be a bit tricky.

"So you did all of this?" Parasoul asked him referring to the knocked out Egrets. "Admittedly, I'm impressed."

"Well I'm flattered. However, this shield is not yours to take."

"Oh? And sense you're wearing an outfit that matches the design that just mean it belongs to you?" Parasoul asked placing a hand on her hip.

"It was a gift. Look young lady, I really don't want any trouble."

"I see…" Parasoul said still a but unsure of the strange man she then points her umbrella: Krieg at Cap. "But I would like to see what you can do with that shield. A demonstration perhaps?"

Rogers thought about it for a moment but then got into a fighting stance. "If you insist."

GO FOR BROKE!

ENGAGE!

Parasoul started things off by firing her handgun at the Avenger which, unsurprisingly, resulted in having every's hot deflected from his shield. Cap then tossed said shield at the princess who ducked and tried firing again. The shield then bounced off the wall behind Parasoul and nailed her on the back of the head throwing her off guard.

Captian America then jumped in the air grabing his shield and dive bombing into Parasoul. Cap then caught the princess in a flurry of punches and kicks.

That was until he felt his foot get stuck in something. He looked down to see his foot caught in some weird substance which Parasoul placed while she was getting hit. She then took out the same gun and shot at the substance causing it to explode knocking the Avenger back into the air. Parasoul then began her own assault kicking him and hitting him with Krieg a few times.

Until the two locked… uh… shield and umbrella? Let's just say locked weapons. The two stared at eachother and began to speak.

"Now that I think about it, you remind me of a friend of mine." Cap began.

"Do tell." She nonchalantly replied somewhat curious. The two then pushed each other away, Parasoul shot some napalm at the Avenger which landed on his shield. Cap then threw his shield at Parasoul hoping to hit her this time, but she saved herself by opening up Krieg and hitting the shield on contact sending it flying back to its owner.

Before Steve can catch it, Parasoul shot another bullet at the napalm making it explode in Cap's face blinding him. She then delivers a few more hits on the superhero even stomping on his shield uppercutting him then immediately hitting the shield on its way back down nailing him in the stomach.

With his vision restored, Steve then places his shield on his back causing Parasoul to raise an eyebrow. He then runs up to the Princess who tries to hit Steve with another hit from Krieg, but this time Captain America ducks the attack and lands some boxing moves on Parasoul.

Parasoul then try's to attack but is surprised when Cap takes her living umbrella out of her hand and tosses it away.

"Now we're even." Cap states refusing to use his shield to keep things fair. Parasoul responds with a yawn clearing taunting the Super Solider. "Now that's just rude." Cap then charged towards Parasoul but imeditally stopped when he saw her pull out a walkie talkie.

"Take the shot." She ordered, before Steve could he react, Steve was shot by an Egret sniper. Lucky for him, it was a nonlethal round.

KO!

Adam walked in to see Parasoul inspecting the outcold Avenger and his shield after she help the troops back on their feet. "So this is our intruder huh?" He asked with Parasoul nodding her head in response. "Well don't worry Your Highness, we will have this arrested and-"

"No, we need him." Parasoul said rather bluntly.

"We… We do?"

"Yes, he proved that this shield can be used for both offense and defense. Plus I have a feeling he'll answer whatever questions we have." She explained. "Someone get this man to the medical ward! I'm sure when we get this whole mess cleared up he'll apologize when he wakes up. No problem though."

"Yes Ma'am!" One Egret called out volunteering to help out the Star Spangled hero.

"But seriously, who is this guy?" The Princess said wondering about her opponent.
