Amy (Guest)- I do feel bad for Steve, but that was SO necessary (If only to satisfy my own amusement). Yep! The motorcycle holding is pretty awesome! Hmmm, good idea for jokes! I'll look into that!

The team went out to search for Thor, until Tony remembered JARVIS. "JARVIS!"
"Yes sir?"
"Where is Thor?"
"He is currently in the kitchen." Was it just Steve's imagination, or did the computer sound a bit disgruntled? He shook his head. The team headed to the kitchen where they met what looked like a war zone; Thor seemed to have emptied every cupboard in the room, and was currently ransacking the fridge.
"Thor!" Clint yelled, causing the demigod to turn around, "What the hell?"
"This is a most grievous catastrophe! There are no more Pop-Tarts!" Thor looked almost ready to cry.
The group exchanged looks, wide-eyed. They didn't want a repeat of last time they were out of Thor's favorite food. Steve shuddered; that hadn't been fun.
"It's okay big guy. JARVIS? order more Pop-Tarts to be delivered express mail immediately!" Tony stressed the last word.
"Right away, sir."
"In the meantime, let's keep watching, JARVIS will let us know when they are delivered."
Ten minutes later found the heroes back in the theater, Thor happily eating and the next reel flickering to life on the screen.
The image showed an army tent, filled with people going about their business with papers and trying to avoid the rain pouring outside. Colonel Phillips signing something, a sombre expression on his face.
"Colonel Phillips." Steve's voice was heard before he was seen on camera, closely followed by Peggy, approaching the Colonel's desk.
"If it isn't the Star Spangled Man with a Plan. What is your plan today?" Phillips responded sarcastically.
"I need the casualty list from Azzano."
Steve sighed, that day was one of the worst of his life; thinking that his best friend was dead.
"You don't get to give me orders, son."
"I just need one name: Sergeant James Barnes from the 107th."
"Oh!" A few people gasped quietly. They all knew the story of Bucky from reading Steve's file.
Phillips pointed to Peggy, ignoring Steve. "You and I are gonna have a conversation later that you wont enjoy."
"Please, tell me if he's alive, sir. B-A-R-" He persisted urgently.
"I can spell," There was a moment of silence before he stood. "I have signed more of these condolence letters today than I would care to count, but the name sounds familiar. I'm sorry." and he did look it. The expression on Steve's face was one of immense sadness and shock.
The other Avengers were all filled with pity for what Steve must've been feeling that day, when he heard that.
"What about the others? Are you planning a rescue mission?"
"Even though your friend was most likely dead, you still asked and wanted to save the others! I commend you for this." Thor stated solemnly, breaking the silence that the observers had been in, simply watching the scene play out.
"Er, thanks," Steve said awkwardly, "JARVIS?"
"Right away, sir."
"Yeah, it's called winning the war." Phillips picked up again.
"But if you know where they are, why not at least send..."
"They're thirty miles behind enemy lines, through some of the most heavily fortified territory in Europe." the colonel interrupted impatiently. "We'd lose more men than we'd save. But I don't expect you to understand that because you're a chorus girl."
"What?" Tony asked when he realized that everyone was staring at him. "He was!"
"I understand just fine." Steve's expression was stony.
"Well, then, understand it somewhere else. If I read the posters correctly, you have some place to be in thirty minutes." the Colonel walked away to examine a map.
"You just found out your best friend might be dead, and he's telling you to go perform?" Bruce asked incredulously to much agreement.
"Not much room for sympathy in the army, it's a tight schedule." Steve's matter-of-fact way of saying this made everyone else exchange looks before continuing.
Steve was looking at the map showing where the prisoners were held. "Yes, sir. I do." he said before walking away and the film stopped.
By Steve's tone, everyone knew that Phillips and the Captain were not thinking of the same place.
"This was a short one, wasn't it?"
"Yeah, but there was quite a bit packed into that." Natasha answered Clint. "Ready for the next one?"
"One minute, Tony, can I talk to you for a minute?" Steve asked after checking the next reel. Tony gave his consent and they left the room, leaving the others to wonder what they were talking about.
