Chapter 1

Stark Expo

1943

A young woman was busy getting ready for the show that would be starting that night. The very expo that her brother She fixed her hair as someone knocked on the door. "Come in." She called as she finished fixing her hair.

A man slowly walked into the room. "Are you ready?" He asked sticking his hands in his pockets and looking the woman over making sure that she was fully ready to go.

The woman slowly turned to face the man. She smoothed out the skirt that she wore. "About as ready as I'll ever be Howard."

Howard smiled a cheeky smile as he looked at her. "Shall we show what we, Starks, are made out of, Dorothy?" He questioned with a smile.

Dorothy let out a soft chuckle. "Let's show them your design of the flying car."

Howard pouted a tiny bit. "But it was also your idea. You planted it inside my brain." He said not liking the idea that Dorothy wanted him to take the credit for what was designed even though it was her that planted it in his mind of what he should do.

Dorothy touched his cheek lightly. "But you made it a reality Howard."

Howard let out a soft huff. "How did I get stuck with a sister like you and in the military no less."

Dorothy wrinkled her nose a little bit. "Come on Howard. They're about to introduce us." She said giving him a sassy look hating the idea that he brought up the military once again. She knew that he meant well, but sometimes his mouth could hurt a girl's feelings.

"Welcome to the Modern Marvels Pavillion and the World of Tomorrow. A greater world. A better world." The announcer rang out.

Howard helped lead his sister out of her dressing room. "Glad that you're not in your army clothes."

Dorothy looked at her brother with a bit of a sour expression on her face. "What you have something against my military clothes?"

"No, no I don't Dorothy, you know that… but this is an expo…"

"I know… I'm just teasing brother."

Howard let out a soft dry laugh. "You minx."

Dorothy winked teasingly at her brother.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Howard and Miss Dorothy Stark!" Mandy introduced the siblings.

The two of them entered, and Howard went off leaning down kissing Mandy on the lips.

"I love you, Howard!" A woman from the crowd yelled causing Dorothy to let out a soft chuckle.

Howard moved away from Mandy. "Ladies and gentlemen, what if I told you that in just a few short years, your automobile won't even have to touch the ground at all."

The women who were his helpers removed the wheels of the car.

"Yes. Thanks, Mandy." Howard looked out to the crowd. "With Stark robotic reversion technology, you'll be able to do just that." He turned on the switch making the car hover off of the ground. It suddenly malfunctioned and fell back onto the stage. "I did say a few years, didn't I?"

The crowd laughed lightly.

Dorothy let out a soft chuckle knowing that her brother wasn't going to take this lying down, he was going to figure out what had gone wrong. Dorothy touched Howard's arm and led him off of the stage.

"I thought it was going to work," Howard said complaining a little bit. A little let down that it didn't work as well as he hoped it would.

"Howard… you said a few years… give yourself a few years to do just that… prove to them that you can give them a flying car." Dorothy mused giving him a small smile. She knew that Howard was bummed out that it didn't work, but sooner or later he would be able to have a flying car easily.

Howard turned to look at his younger sister. "Why does it always seem like you have the right thing to say?"

"Because that is what siblings are supposed to do Howard. You know that." Dorothy said offering him a small smile, patting his arm before slowly heading down the hall.

"Where are you off to Dorothy?" Howard called to his younger sister causing her to turn and face him.

"I'm supposed to meet Dr. Erskine." She called back to him as she turned back around. "I'll see you at home, alright Howard?"

"Be careful Dorothy," Howard called back to his sister, his big brother mode kicking into gear. He would always worry about his younger sister. After all, she was in the military and he knew how dangerous it was out there.

Dorothy smiled as she pulled her coat closer to her as she walked. Her heels clicked on the ground as she made her way to the recruitment building that was there in the area. She took a soft breath knowing that this meet-up with Dr. Erskine would hopefully be good and they go the information that they needed.

"Miss Stark." Dr. Erskine said as he noticed the young woman coming towards him. "I believe we may have someone."

"Oh? After all this time?" Dorothy asked in surprise. She hadn't thought that he would be able to find someone, but it was a good possibility that he had found someone for Project Rebirth.

Dr. Erskine nodded his head. "Come with me." He said as he began to walk down the hall.

Dorothy quickly moved to follow him. Her heels clicked against the floor as she moved with him. She followed him into a room.

"Thank you." He said looking at the MP that was in the room. He then looked at the man that stood there in the room. "So, you want to go overseas. Kill some Nazis."

"Excuse me?" The young man asked looking at Dr. Erskine and Dorothy with a wandering gaze.

"Dr. Abraham Erskine." He said walking over to the young man. "I represent the Strategic Scientific Reserve. And this is Agent Dorothy Stark."

Dorothy nodded her head in the direction of the young man.

"Steve Rogers." The young man said softly introducing himself still unsure of why the two of them were there in the room with him. His heart pounded in his chest in worry. Was this the way things were going to be? Would he never get into the army like he wanted to serve his country like he wanted to?

Dr. Erskine started to look through his file.

"Where are you from?" Steve asked swallowing the lump in his throat hoping that it wasn't a mistake in him asking.

"Queens. 73rd Street and Utopia Parkway. Before that, Germany. This troubles you?"

Steve shook his head. "No."

Dr. Erskine continued to flip through the pages. "Where are you from, Mr. Rogers? Mmm? Is it New Haven? Or Paramus? Five exams in five different cities."

"That might not be the right file," Steve said swallowing the lump in his throat knowing that he had been caught by the Doctor.

"No, it's not the exams I'm interested in. It's the five tries. But you didn't answer my question. Do you want to kill Nazis?"

"Is this a test?"

"Yes." Dr. Erskine said with a nod of his head.

"I don't want to kill anyone. I don't like bullies. I don't care where they're from."

"Well, there are already so many big men fighting this war. Maybe what we need now is the little guy, huh? I can offer you a chance."

The three of them exited the room.

"Only a chance."

"I'll take it."

"Good. So where is the little guy from, actually?"

"Brooklyn."

He stamped Steve's folder and then handed it to him. "Congratulations, soldier."

Steve slowly opened the file and saw that he was accepted.

Dorothy walked down the hall with Dr. Erskine. "Are you sure that this is the one?"

"Yes, Agent Stark."

Dorothy nodded her head. "Yes, sir…" She said softly knowing that Dr. Erskine was right with his choice. She was just going to have to believe him on it. And it was something that scared her. She could only hope that he was right with the choice that he was going to make. She hoped that Steven Rogers was the proper choice. She knew that he was going to have to prove himself and it wasn't going to be easy that was for sure.
