"Are you okay miss?" He asked holding her closer than earlier. Emily blushed furiously as her eyes meet his once more.

"I'm alright, he was a close friend. We grew up in the same neighborhood." Emily glanced away trying to hide her face, she hated to so her emotions to people she didn't really know. Mr. Rogers noticed how she was acting and gently released her. Emily smiled softly as she regained her balance; it pained her to lose people close to her. – She had found out about Mr. Erskine's death from a letter her father wrote. Emily had never cried so hard in her life. Mr. Erskine was like another father to her.-

"You don't look fine." As female voice said, from behind them. Looking over her shoulder Emily noticed Peggy standing there. "Hey peg." Emily stepped back From Mr. Rogers and sighed awkwardly.

"I see you have met Captain Rogers." Peggy's voice had a hint of hostility in it as she moved closer. Emily glanced towards the man she only met earlier today.

"Captain?" Emily sounded shocked. Mr. Rogers looked at the ground sheepishly.

"It's Steve." He smiled softly and walked off. Peggy moved closer with a glare.

"He's higher rank then you Ms. Gates." Peggy stepped back and fallowed him, that's when another figured joined them. Emily couldn't make out who he was, but knew they were up to something. Curious she started to fallow them down to the Air Strip until she was called back to the surgeon's tent. Reluctant to go back she took her time getting to the tent. Little did she know there was going to be more people coming back to camp the next morning.

With a busy night working on several soldiers Emily finally left the tent around 4 a.m. Walking to her tent she realized that Peggy and the other guy came back alone.

"Where's Steve?" Emily asked exhaustedly running up to Peggy.

"I can't tell you." Peggy replied annoyed. Emily was not sure what she did to make Peggy angry, but she knew there was a chance the guy she had just meet may not return. Turning around Emily sluggishly made her way to her tent. Once inside she found a note with her name on it. It was written by Dr. Erskine.

"what in the world?" Emily opened the note and read it.

My dearest joy Emily,

You have been a well behaved girl. If you are reading this, then you know by now that I have been killed. Steve Rogers was my second greatest achievement since your case. I hope the injections have been helping you with your bodies muscle movement, and strengths. I am dead because of a man named Johann Schmidt. He wanted something he can't have, and would never have been able to achieve. So I am letting you know that in order to stay alive and live in a safe world you will need to Help Steve Rogers with his journey. Remember stay true to yourself, and don't become someone they want you to.

Sincerely

Abraham Erskine

A tear fell from her eyes once she was done reading the note she knew it was thanks to Dr. Erskine that she was able to move around and even walk again. She owed him her life for what he did. Now she just had to find a way to pay him back. Sitting down on the cot that was her bed Emily felt more tears fall. She still felt a deep pain inside when she thought of the Doctor. After minutes of crying she fell asleep.
