Five Years ago
Christmas was Jason's favorite time of year. He'd get to eat sweets all day, and he got see all the great decorations. But most of all, it was the only time of year he knew he'd get to spend with his dad. His dad was always very busy. Yeah Jason missed him, and got a little jealous when he'd see a boy playing catch with his dad at the park when he had to play with his mom. But he had something they didn't; a superhero for a dad. Yes Jason's father was a superhero. He would tell him stories; he would fly around on a jet pack with the Captain of the whole America. They would save innocent people, and fight snake men.
His father got him a Red Thunder bike for Christmas, but Jason didn't need it. He had the only thing he wanted; his father for Christmas. Jason wiped the mist of his window so he could get a better look at the decoration that lit up the town. They were in the middle of a family tradition; every Christmas they would go to the park and see Santa and his reindeer. He couldn't wait to see Santa, and he was hoping it wasn't too much trouble but he was going to ask for next year's present in advance. Jason wanted a Star shield so he could go with his father on his next mission.
CRASH
Jason looked up in confusion. He didn't know what was happening. One minute he was daydreaming of fighting along side his father and Captain America and the next their car was being plowed of the road by a black SUV.
"Jason, Matty, are you two okay? "His father asked.
"I'm fine… how's Jason?" His mother asked.
"You okay back there buddy?" His father asked. Jason nodded weakly. Jason then hear the doors of the SUV open and men get out. They were talking funny; it was some kind of language that he did not understand.
"Good evening." A tall bald man says in a thick Russian accent. "How do you do?"
"Rasputin!" Jason father yells, "I'll kill you for this!"
"I think not" Rasputin said with a chuckle as he pulled out a revolver and pointed it at Jason's dad. "Now I need you to deliver a message Mr. American agent." Rasputin said, slowly loading the gun. "I need you to tell the Captain and Fury that they started a war, and we're here to finish it. Can you do that?" Rasputin asked with a grim smile. "As a little incentive I kill the boy. Huh." he said pointing the gun toward Jason.
"No! You bastard! Don't point that thing at my son!" Jason mother yelled.
"Okay, then maybe I point it at you then." Rasputin chuckled sadistically.
"Stop pointing that gun at my family!" Jason's father yelled.
"I know, let's make it into a game!" Rasputin smiled, pointing the gun from Jason to his mother "You choose which one dies. huh. Your son… or wife…"
"You bastard you proved your point just let them go! They can deliver the message as good as I can!"
"Me… ME!" Jason mother yelled.
"I am going to kill you slowly." Jason father growled. Rasputin only smiled as he pulls the trigger.
BANG

Jason's eyes fluttered open, then quickly clamped shut. It took him a few moments for his eyes to adjust to the light. The first thing he noticed was he was having a difficult time moving. The second was there were tubes and wires connected to his body. It looked like he was in a hospital room of some sort.
"My God." Jason looked to his door and saw an old man standing there. He dropped the cup of coffee he was holding and it shattered noisily on the floor. "You're awake" he said, walking slowly over to Jason and giving him a hug, tears swelling up in his eyes. "After so long your awake,"
"Who are you?" Jason tried to ask but it came out as nothing more than a murmur.
"You probably don't know me." the man said, tears in his eyes. "I'm Ronald Mason. I'm your grandfather." he paused for a moment as Jason murmurs something else "It's okay. It's a side effect of you being asleep for so long." He smiled. "It'll all come back to you. I'll teach you everything you'll need to know. I'll help you through this."

Jason and his grandfather stood next to each other both staring at their reflection in a mirror. The two of them were wearing identical suits, both black jackets and blue under shirts. They were putting the final touch on their bow ties "Then it's up over and then under" Jason grandfather said, finishing with his coming out flawlessly. Ronald then looked over at his grandson and laughed. "How did you get your fingers stuck in the knot?" He asked, amused, reaching up to his grandson's neck. "It's okay, it's okay. You have to learn these things. It'll be better your second time around." He said, undoing the knot his grandson had made and then remaking one for him going through the steps again. "There!" He gave one last chuckle "Looks there a few things I have to teach you yet." he said with a smile.
"It would seem so." his grandson said, looking himself up and down in the mirror.
"Alright time to get moving." Jason's grandfather said, reaching down and grabbing a blue and white metallic briefcase.
"Why don't you let me carry that?" Jason asked seeing his grandfather struggle with the briefcase "Darn grandpa what have you got in here? It's heavy"
"Oh just a few things I'll need for the party." He says with a smile "It's not all fun you know. Need to do a little business. Now let's go. I don't want to arrive after that Darn Mr. Ohnn."
"Alright I'm driving" Jason said.
"Not on your life child" he said.
Jason shrugged. "It was worth a shot."
