I was originally going to place this with the Supergirl/Captain America section, but considering the other Avengers will be making appearances as well, so this will be in the Supergirl/Avengers crossover page. This chapter will be a little sappy and cute, and I'm pretty sure more chapters like this will be in here as well. I will get to the first episode maybe after this chapter, or after another chapter. Also the first episodes chapter will be The Martian Chronicles.
Also thank you for all the support for 'The Scarlet Spider', and I will hopefully have the first chapter out soon.
And make sure to read: Super-Avengers, Look Forward to the Future, Meet the Barton's, and The Scarlet Spider as well.
I own none the content, and hope you all enjoy this.
Meeting the Past
J'onn had given Kara some time off, and given Steve some time as well. He said he had to give him a background check, anything else a DEO Agent had to go through before they were sworn in. Kara thought that was unnecessary, considering whom the person in question was, but J'onn had told her that he couldn't pick favorites and everyone had to do it.
'Besides, I did it to you, Alex, and Winn. I don't just hire people from words alone.' He said.
'But M'gann sorta works here, and you didn't.' Kara had said, with a raised eyebrow.
J'onn had rubbed the back of his head and said, 'It was a special case.'
Steve would also go through combat training, but he said he would do it now, before they he and Kara would go on a trip they were planning.
Needless to say, the Agents that were chosen, got their butts whooped by Captain America. Kara and Alex weren't sure if they let him do that, or Steve was that good of a fighter. Kara had chosen the latter, considering all the News Reels and the fighting in New York.
Alex attested to that, considering besides Vasquez, they were two of the Agents that had fought him.
Alex had also chosen the former; she had heard how some of the Agents gushed about fighting and meeting him. She also threatened another round to the ones who said it, but they said they tried their best.
After that, Kara and Steve took off for their trip. Their trip was to visit the remaining members of the Howling Commando's and Peggy Carter.
Steve felt it was time to see everyone, and Kara thought it was a good idea.
So they went for about a week and visited Dugan, who was now living in D.C, And Gabe, who lived in his hometown of Macon, Georgia, and they both knew they were coming. Due to James had called beforehand to let him know Steve and Kara were going to visit.
They were going to visit Peggy last, due to her moving back to England.
Kara had jokingly suggested that she should just fly them to their destinations. Steve had rolled his eyes in amusement, and said he wanted to enjoy the sights, and the country. He didn't get a chance to during his tours during the war, so he hoped to make up for some very lost time.
Kara had no problem with that, sure she can get to places at the speed of sound, but taking the time to enjoy the sights was better.
Over the course of the week, Kara had smiled, and had fun meeting Steve's old war buddies, and their families. And she could see how relieved and happy they were about seeing each after all these years. But, she could see the sadness in Steve's eyes from time-to-time, considering almost everyone he knew back in the forties was dead.
But she had also seen him more relaxed he had seen him in a while as well.
Each time they left, Steve promised to keep in touch.
It was when they were going to visit Peggy that was when Steve looked more nervous. They were driving to a house Peggy had bought that was outside London.
Kara, who was driving, placed a comforting hand on his shoulder, and said," Hey, it's going to be fine."
"I know, it was easy talking to Dum Dum and Gabe. I don't know what I'll say to her." He said.
Kara smirked, and said," Well, she'll probably scold you for your lousy sense of time."
Steve rolled his eyes at the blonde, while Kara giggled.
She soon sobered up and said," Hey in all honestly, she will be happy to see you. She was excited when I told her we were going to visit."
Steve nodded and said," Y'know, it somehow worries me that you two talk to each other. Not that it's bad or anything, but I have a strange feeling."
Kara snorted in amusement and said," Relax Spangles, we aren't swapping embarrassing stories about you."
Steve raised a brow at her and said," Really? We're going for Stark level nicknames?" Kara ended up laughing at that.
Once they got to the house, they knocked on the door, an older voice said they come in. Kara saw that Steve gulped, and they walked inside.
Peggy was sitting in the living room. Kara could see she aged rather well, and retained her looks from her youth. Peggy had smiled, and got up to hug Kara first.
"It's wonderful to finally meet you, it was about time you visited."
"Well, being Supergirl takes most of my time. And likewise, it's not every day you meet someone famous. Also, I found someone." Kara said.
Kara looked to see Steve was still standing near the threshold of the room. But he soon walked over, and gently hugged Peggy. Peggy did as well, and she sniffed a couple of times.
"You're late." She said.
Steve felt bad and said," I'm sorry. But I did what I thought was right."
Peggy sat back down, had a watery smile and said," Well, it's alright now. But it's best not to dwell in the past. I'm just glad you're ok. But if you don't mind, there's some tea in the kitchen. I would get it, but I'm afraid getting old has its limitations. You do remember how I like it?"
Steve nodded with grin and said," As if it was a couple of months ago."
He then walked out of the room. Kara looked at Steve for a moment, and then at Peggy, who had a knowing look.
"I don't need to be a former spy to see young love. You really care about him, don't you." She said the last part as a statement.
Kara moved her hair from her ear, and sighed.
"I do, and I'm just glad that I finally told him how I felt, and he felt the same. But, we are taking things slow though. I don't think we're anywhere close to saying that word."
"Well, it's best not to wait too long. I should know, it took me a while to finally move on. But I did, and the years after have been great. Daniel and I have some great years, a lot of adventures, along with children and grandchildren. Not to mention building up a spy agency. And I know my time is coming short, but I have a feeling it won't be for a while. From what you two have, it's going to last a long time as well. Just don't let him out of your grasp, dear." Peggy sagely said.
Kara nodded at her words, and made sure to think about it more later.
Peggy was right about them having time. She would have to think about it more later.
Steve soon arrived with the tea. And the three of them spent the next couple of hours talking about what Peggy had been up to for the past 70+ years. What had Kara and Steve had been up to, including the events of New York. Peggy had made the comment of saying what her Godson, who was Tony, did, was in the same league of heroics Steve had did.
Kara had laughed when Steve didn't correct her, and just looked guilty.
And she would never admit it to anyone, besides Steve himself, but he looked adorable with the look.
Kara had also ended crying a little, but not of sadness, but how beautiful it was when Steve and Peggy danced a little. They were talking about Steve's last mission, and Steve had thought about making up for lost time. Kara had found an old song from the 40's on her phone, and played it. She wiped a tear from her eye as the two swayed to the music.
Kara was happy that Steve and Peggy had Kara felt good for reuniting them after all this time. She had a feeling that Steve wouldn't do it on his own, and she was glad she had helped him find the courage to do so.
She then thought about the adventures Steve and Peggy had during the war.
And that made her think of what type of adventures she and him will have in the future.
As you can tell, I didn't want Peggy to have Alzheimer's in this. The scene in the Winter Soldier was heartbreaking and sad enough. I mean, I'm not the only writer who has done this before. I also hoped I captured the emotions in this as well.
Also I don't have the DVD for season two, and I need to renew my Netflix, I'm sorry for the wait. I forgot to mention this in Scarlet Spider as well.
Till next time.
