Now home, Jennifer stood in the middle of her living room staring at the wedding dress that she is no longer going to wear.
"My, that is a very pretty dress." The voice had her jump and spin around to see Peggy Carter standing there. "Your brother told me where you'd be."
"A dress that cost an arm and a leg." Jen said with a sigh. "According to Steve, he says it mostly cost two legs."
"What do you plan to do with it now?" Peggy asked as she admired the dress, catching her friend roll her eyes.
"I think its obvious." Jen huffed before she started to tear up again. "I have everything ready for a beautiful summer wedding." She started to name off the things on her fingers. "The dress, the bridemaids, flowers." She choked up. "Everything! Now its cancled." She sobbed.
Peggy bit her lower lip as she looked away, then a thought struck her. "Steve plans to go after Hydra." She informed. "And he wants you by his side when he does."
Jen shook her head. "I'm not going." She walked over to the couch and plopped down with a heavy sigh. "I'm not a super solider like Steve."
"I dont think your Sergeant would like that." Peggy said.
Jen looked away. "Right now, I don't care." She reached into her pocket to reveal a small blue bottle.
"Don't you dare!" Peggy exclaimed with wide eyes as Jen put the needle to her arm. "No! Jennifer, don't!" She jumped forward and smacked the bottle out of Jennifer's hands.
But it was too late, Jen already injected the whole bottle into herself.
"What have you done?" Peggy gasped. "That much of a dose could kill you!" She cried. "What about Steve?"
Jen blinked feeling herself fading, to late to turn back now. "Take care of him." With that she fell to the side limply.
"Jennifer!" Peggy cried, catching her. "Jen! Jen, wake up!"
But her cries fell on death ears.

Jen was now lying in a medical bed, Steve was sitting next to the bed and looking through a magazine.
Groaning, Jen slowly awoke and looked around finding Steve sitting next to her. "Steve?" Her voice was raspy.
Steve looked up from the magazine he was looking through. "Jenny!" He cried reaching over and grabbing her arm. "I can't beleive you would do such a thing!"
"How can I go back out in public again?" She wanted to know. "I'm suppose to be getting married in two months."
"Bucky wouldn't want you to do this." Steve told her. "He wouldn't want you to join him!"
"I don't want to face the public again!" Jen snapped, her eyes tearing up for the second time that day. "It already hit the papers."
"Help me get justice for Bucky." Steve told her. "Please."
"I'll tell you what I told Peggy, I'm not a super solider like you." She folded her arms and looked away, Steve sighed and sat back in his chair as he folded his own arms.
"Bucky would want justice." He told her again. Sighing, he looked at his sister whom rolled to her side with her back to him. "Jen, I know your hurt." He leaned forward a little so he could place his arms on the bed.
Suddenly Jen started thrashing about.
"Jen!" Steve grabbed her shoulder and moved her so she's on her back. "Jen!" He quickly got to his feet. "Doctor!" He looked around franticly. "Doctor!"

Jen's POV
That was the last time I saw Steve. The last time I saw my whole world. I didn't know I was going to get a second chance.
I never even dreamed of it. Peggy was right, too much serum could really hurt and do damage.
I heard a door opening and I turned to see it opening wider and a woman in a jump suit.
"Your awake." She smiled at me. "Good."
I put a hand on my head as I groan and slowly sit up, watching as the woman walk close to me and sits on the edge of my bed. "Don't hurt me." I'm frightened as I look around my surroundings.
Something is telling me I'm not in my timezone.
"I'm not going to hurt you." The woman told me gently. "My name is Natasha Romanoff." She introduces herself. "What's yours?"
She's nice. But I get the feeling she can be a deadly weapon, and I can be her target if I'm not carefull. But again I don't think she'd hurt me since I'm already down.
"Jennifer." I answer. "Jennifer Rogers."
Natasha gives a nod as she stands up. "If you could just wait here please, the Director is going to want to know that you're awake."
I shake my head. "I'm not going anywhere." I look around. "Where's my brother?" Natasha looks back at me. "Steve Rogers. Also known as Captain America." I wach as something flicker in her eyes.
"I'll be right back." She turned and left the room, leaving me alone.
I have a feeling I'm not going to like what I'm about to hear.
