Anna and bruce looked at each other before Anna nodded ‘’alright then. We’ll get to work as soon as we land.. ill keep her under command for now until we’re sure about everything and ebfore we start, it’ll keep her safe and she wont be able to harm anyone in this state.. once we’re ready, ill. Undo the commands, making sure shes heavily sedated so she cant attack.. and then me and bruce will get to work’’ Anna said gently ‘’we’ll do everything we can to make sure shes.. restored.. to the person you once knew.. she wont be 100% cap.. but shell be pretty damn close’’ bruce said gently before they all sat in silence…
once they were back at the base, Thor and Clint took care of Natasha, tony went off to do whatever he wnated. Mainly tinkering with his suits, Bucky went and sat in his room, he needed to be alone right now..after years of not knowing if Gertie was alive, and then a couple more years thinking and accepting she might be dead… he was thrown for a heavy loop.. ad he couldnt shake this scared feeling he had…
Anastasia took Gertie and she and bruce took her to Bruce’s lab. There they got started on what would be a three day project to get Gertie back on the right path… ‘’this better work’’ bruce said. ‘’It will…no matter what.. ti will.. we vampires are pretty good at restoring lost things’’ she siad as they got started on their work. Each taking something and working on it while collaborating with each other, the lab was filed with noise from the two. Of them.

Once they arrived back at the Avengers compound, Steve was the last one to get off the jet. He still felt a little weird about everything, but himself, his sister and Bucky were all from the forties and living in the twentieth century, which to him was just as weird. Steve put his shield away and changed into a white t shirt and grey sweats before heading up to his room. He just hoped that Bruce and Anna could pull this off without something going wrong.

Over the next three days, Anna and Bruce didnt leave the lab they were in. Natasha and Clint broguht them food and took away their empty plates, while also keeping Steve away from the lab. Bucky didnt show up… Neither was allowed in till Anna said so. Anastasia was busy working on Gertrude’s mind, while bruce was finishing up the vampire gene sequences. After another four hours they were finally ready to begin the boding process…’’here goes nothing’’. Anna said before biting intoher own wrist, opening the girls mouth and pouring her. Blood down the girls throat, once done, Bruce injected her with anew serum, once that. Would help active the new and already there vampire gene without causing the blood lust to become active, the two worked as they got everything up and running.
Bucky over the last three days hadnt left his room, and when he did it was late at night when everyone else was sleeping, he would get soemthing to eat, eat, then go back to his rooma nd stay there.. and thats where he ahd been that day…he sat in the dark, with a single light on,coming form his bedside lamp… he had once single photo left form his old life, it was of him steve and Gertie before any of them joined the army,they were in their last year of schooling… it was all he had left of his former life…he rubbed his finger over Gertrude’s face and sighed heavily, he was thinking to himself when Nat came in ‘’Bucky, Anna wants you. Ive already told Steve to go tot he lab’’ nat said and bucky sighed before standing and follwoing her. He walked in just as everything Anna and bruce were doing came to a stop. ‘’Hello you two’’ Anna siad happily while bruce looked excited and shocked, Anna walked past them to where Gertrude was and helped the now awake girl up. Bucky watched as Anna compelled Gertrude to forget the commands hydra used, saying them as she compelled the girl to forget. Bruce and Anna knew all theyre hard work payed off, they could see it as soon a s Gertrude woke up.

Steve did his best to stay away from Bruce's lab, he'd simply look in the window on occasion but he knew he wasn't allowed in. So he kept up with his daily run, catching up on his list of tv shows, movies and music that the team helped him compile over the years. He had checked in on Bucky too, he knew his best friend wanted to be left alone so he let him be after the first time. Steve had showered and changed just as Nat came to have him go to the lab, it had been three days so he hoped that Bruce and Anna had figured something out for his sister. Steve combed his wet short hair and put on his shoes before going up to Bruce's lab just as Bucky got there. He smiled a little as he saw Anna. "Is everything alright? " Steve asked. "Okay? It's better than okay! Everything we said we could do, we did" Bruce said with a small laugh. Gertrude who was in a simple white t shirt and black sweat pants, stood carefully with Anna's help before she heard a familiar voice and looked over at the two males who came into the room earlier. "Steve?! Bucky?! " she breathed out in disbelief as Anna let go of her arm. "You... No... You both died... " Gertie added as tears welled up in her eyes, but they were more of happy tears.

Anna still held onto the girl since she had been put under for three days, her legs were slightly weaker but the vampiric healing should kick in soon. ‘’Carefully now, youre still a bit groggy from being put to sleep for three days’’ Anna stated As Bucky and steve stood there in shock, before Steve could react, Bucky was already wlaking forward and engulfing the girl into a tight embrace, Anna stepped back with bruce to all the three to reunite. ‘’We’ll leave you three to catch up. Im gonna go help Nat make up a room for her.’’ Anna said gently before her and bruce left the room. Anna smiled softly before hse finally left, she was happy that they were actually able to restore everything steve and bucky knew about Gertrude including those lost memories, even if they couldn’t retrieve every single one, 90% were there, which was mroe than they had actually thought it would be. The vampire gene was working wonderfully, with no blood lust or other bloody vampire after effects like the fangs and eyes changing like Anna had, for most part, Gertrude was human, just witht he added super solider serum and the few traits they kept that belong tot he vampire gene. Bucky felt like a huge weight had been lifted off of his chest ‘’i am so glad youre okay’’ he siad to Gertrude softly before letting her go and letting steve engulf her in his own hug. After they hugged they sat back down, ‘’we have a lot to catch you up on…’’ bucky siad gently as he sat down in a chair and sighed gently. This day was gonna be a long one. Meanwhile Anna was already helping Nat with a room for Gertrude, it would be situated next to Anna’s, while also being close to Steves and Bucky’s, since Anna’s room was only a few feet formt heirs anywyas with hwo the place was laid out.

Steve couldn't believe his sister was alive and standing there before them. When Bruce and Anna went to leave, Steve gently stopped Anna by taking her arm. "Hey, Anna. Thank you. I mean it. Thank you" he said softly before letting go of her arm and letting them leave. Steve looked over and smiled when he saw Bucky hug Gertie, he knew how much Bucky still loved her, he wondered if Gertie still felt the same. Gertrude let out a small oof when Bucky suddenly hugged her and smiled as she gladly hugged him back. Gertie chuckled a bit at Bucky's words "I could say the same, I can't believe you're alive" she said softly as Bucky let go of her and Steve hugged her. "Same goes for your big brother. I thought I'd lost you both" she added with tears in her eyes as they all sat down. "How long was I under for? " Gertie asked then. "A little over seventy years. I was found in the bomber, frozen but still alive a few years back. Bucky was taken by Hydra after he fell in Austria and used as a weapon until I found him almost two years ago" Steve explained, giving her the general rundown. Gertie nodded slightly and looked down at her hands "They tried to do that to me too. But Anna said I was uncontrollable, that's why they kept me in cryo all this this time" Gertie said softly. "That wasn't your fault Gertie, Hydra wiped your mind. It was Anna and Bruce who brought you back" Steve explained.

‘’ Anastasia knows the most about HYDRA, shes been aorund since the 1800’s.. she and Brice figured otu a way to bring you back using the vampire gene she has. Apparently HYDRA took her gene and used it on you when they got ahold do you. Its why you still looks he same as you did before being taken. Her gene stopped whatever was in the serum thats made steve look like he does… Anna said they could use that vampire gene to store everything, even lost memories’’ bucky explained gently. ‘’I’m just relieved that it worked.. i had two plans in my head for each outcome.. so im glad the second one didn’t come true’’ Bucky siad gently and smield sadly at her ‘’i wish i had known in someway that you were in there too.. iwould have tried to get you out when i escaped’’ bucky added softly and sighed before a knock was heard ‘’hi.. sorry to interupt. Brought some food and water for Gertrude. And some better clothes. I took your measurements while you were under and sewed you a dress that you can slip on, it’s better than the sweats plus it’s a bit warm today. There underwear and a bra too. ‘’ Anna said with a k,ind smile as she set everything down. ‘’I also need to check your vitals one last time if you dont mind’’ Anna added gently as she threw on her lab coat again and grabbed a stethoscope and a clipboard. ‘’Please continue on like im not even here’’ she said and bucky chuckled ‘’like that could happen. Have you met steve? He cant exactly ignore you’’ bucky said with a cheeky smile directed right at steve. It was that same cheeky smile he always had back int he forties. Bucky was of course smacked by steve but laughed non the less. ‘’You’re one to talk James. ‘’ Anna said and chuckled ‘’ oh Gertie.. theres s much i wnated to tell you…’’ Anna mocked and Bucky narrowed his eyes ‘’you and hat hearing..’’ he muttered and Anna chuckled as she checked Gertrude’s vitals. ‘’You’re heart sounds good.. a little swore but thats expected with the vampire gene’’ Anna said as she listened carefully ‘’the blood stream is slowing down to. Which is expected.’’ She added as she wrote everything down. ‘’But i am a bit worried about the paleness youre having.. but I suspect thats from a lack of sun, nutrition.. things like that. I wanna monitor that Oliver the next few days, nw. I do want you to know that you wont feel the need to sleep anymore, thats perfectly normal, vampires dont often sleep unless we feel extreme exhaustion. But for the next few days, I do wnat you to try to sleep as much as you can, with the serum and the vampire gene activated, the fatigue will come and go in waves. Your body is adjusting to this new nromal it has, but if youre feeling any pain, or if youre feeling any discomfort or anything i want you to come see me right away. ‘’ Anna said as she wrote a few things down ‘’and one more thing. Day after tomorrow im taking you to see someone name Nick Fury, hes asked to speak with you about what you know about hydra and wha they were trying to dow ith you. It’ll take no more than an hour or two. But its important you tell us what you know, even if its not much, ‘’ Anna said with a gentle nod and smile. ‘’On that note, ill leave once again and enter these into the new database for you. And you two. Dont overload her with information, she has the time in world to learn everything so take it easy or im hanging you both off the roof of the compund’’ Anna said seriosuly before leaving. Bucky let out a laugh and smiled before turning to steve ‘’you gonnaask her out yet o what?’’ He asked steve knwoing exactly how he felt for Anna after moving on from Peggy.

Gertrude widened her eyes slightly when she heard what Bucky said. "Wait I'm a... A vampire?! They're actually real?! " she exclaimed. Steve gave Bucky a 'way to go' look. Steve sighed and looked at his sister "yes they are real, you're only partially a vampire, minus the requirement to drink blood to survive. Anna found a way to keep that part dormant. You look the same as you did in 1945 because you've been in cyro that long, same as me being in the ice. Bucky looks a little older than me because he wasn't always kept in cyro, he would be taken out a few days at a time for a Hydra mission and kept in cyro to prolong his life and use to them" Steve explained just as Anna came in and Steve swatted Bucky "You don't know when to stop do you? " he jokingly remarked. Gertie chuckled and looked at Bucky when he mentioned two outcomes "it was hug me or kill me huh? " she teased at him with a playful smirk. Gertrude sat still as Anna checked her over and nodded at what she said about her current conditions. "Maybe once these two catch me up on everything you can explain what I can expect with this vampire gene? " Gertrude asked Anna before she left. Steve shot Bucky a look when he mentioned asking Anna out. "Buck! " he lightly scolded. Gertie looked between the two of them. "Wait, HER? You.... Well I'll say this much, she's an upgrade from Peggy" Gertie voiced, she'd never liked Peggy Carter but Anna was different. Nicer even. Steve sighed and rolled his eyes. "You two are insufferable, I'm going to get Gertie some food" Steve said as he got up and left the room. "Aannnnd he's just as sensitive about women as ever huh? " she joked as she looked from the door over to Bucky.

‘’Honestly.. i think hes worse now. Peggy passed a couple years back. I think not long after i joined the team. He was kinda devastated about it, but he got over it too. I think Anna was a big part of that cause she wouldn’t let him dwell on it at all.’’ Buck stated and chuckled. ‘’But he never stopped looking for you.. seriously he never stopped.. I’m een asked why he hadnt.. and well you know him. He cant ever let things go. Even when i was close to killing him. He still didnt stop’’ he said and chuckled ‘’so… what do you want to know? About the last seventy years? Ill try to do my best about filling in any blanks’’ bucky said and chuckled as he lokoed at Gertrude, he was eternally grateful that bruce and Anna were able to get her back.
Meanwhile Anna was int he kitchen doing some paper work that fury sent over. She was set up at the large kitchen island with the files they had open Gertrude and the paper work she had ot fill out too. She was singing toherself as she worked, since evryone was off doing something else sh didnt expect anyone to be coming into the kitchen, so she started singing a old Russian lullaby about finding love and peace in a dark world.

Gertrude smiled softly at what Bucky told her about Steve. "Of course he didn't. Once he found out you were alive he'd never give up, and from my understanding there was no record of me after he crashed the bomber so he wouldn't have stopped trying until he got answers. Steve always has been stubborn that way" Gertie admitted. She looked at Bucky and chuckled softly. "Well for someone who was in Hydra's deep clutches and used unlike myself you've had more of a life, perhaps not your own until my brother got you out. So let's go from there I guess, you still trying to whoo the ladies? " she teased a bit at him.
Steve went downstairs and let out a relieved breath as he headed for the kitchen, his sister was pretty much herself as far as he could tell. Steve walked into the kitchen and spotted Anna, sitting there. "Oh hey, sorry just getting Gertie something to eat and, drink, hopefully help with the nutrition thing" he said as he went to the fridge. Steve started taking out a few things, food had definitely changed over the decades so he tried to make something his sister would enjoy too. "That paleness you mentioned earlier. That's nothing to do with the vampire gene is it? " Steve asked as he put things on the counter instead of the island so he didn't accidentally get Anna's papers dirty.
