Chapter 5 Rogers: A failure as a soldier
Who's strong and brave here to save the American Way…?
Not me… I was chosen along with 9 others, but then I was told I would be a reserve. If anything happened to one of the others… I would be asked to step in…
Nothing happened to the others… Stark and Carter found out that they were soulmates… Lorraine and I had a relationship for a while, but then she ditched me… Bucky fell off the train carrying Zola and the HYDRA forces, he disappeared… I thought he was dead. My assignment was neither exciting nor fun… I was tasked with helping Colonel Phillips with the telegrams. It was dull. I begged to be allowed to go to war, but I was turned down every time… I was dishonourably discharged because I sneaked out to try to find Bucky and the others… Stark and Carter got the accolades for rescuing them, while I got time in the Brig, polishing the senior officers' shoes and peeling potatoes. While they got money and awards, I had to take a job as a cleaner… it was humiliating… I got my revenge, though… It was tainted because I got jailed for it and Bucky refused to speak to me after it happened, but it was worth it…
