‘’It’s the 21sy century. You’re gonna have to get use to it,but good news, theres tons of different ways you as woman can freely dress.’’ Bucky siad ‘’for instance you have the right to vote, hold elective office, serve on juries, and women are paid pretty much what men are nowadays in different jobs, some are even CEO’s of companies, Like Anna, had multiple college degrees in a number of things, Natasha has a few college degrees too, and she a master in many different things. Agent Hill form shield, basically helps run the place. Im sure you’ll meet her soon. Women can create their own jobs now, they can do all kind sof things, including dress how they wnat to dress. Frankly i like this century better than the 40’s. The movies are better too. Music hasnt changed to much more bands but you can still find a lot of 40’s stuff. You just gotta give this time a chance’’ bucky siad with a shrug as he epxlained a few things to Gertie ‘’sorry to interrupt, but Tony asked me to bring this for Gertrude.’’ Friday announced as a robot came into the room with a book in hand ‘’this is a breif history of whats been going on int he world. Including major events things the team has gone through and more tony figured this might be easier for her than you two telling her everything’’ friday said ‘’I’m pretty we just got insulted by both tony and Friday’’ bucky stated as the robot set the book down ‘’and this is from Thor’’ friday added before the robot set down a small necklace ‘’he says its a welcome to the team gift.’’ Firday said before the robot finally let. Bucky shook his head a bit and sighed, the team could be a bit much. Bucky was about to say something when the building shook and the lgihts flickered ‘’what the hell was that?’’ Bucky asked ‘’Im afraid that Anna, Wanda and Natasha have just been attacked outside. The hit shook the ground causing the compound to shake as well. It seems HYDRA has found Miss Gertrude’’ friday said ‘’Steve stay here with her! Friday lock this place down when i leave!’’ Bucky stated as he grabbed his mask from. His back pocket ‘’Friday bring steve his shield will ya’’ Bucky said ‘’on it, it’ll be here in a. Second, Thor is coming to this area as well to help’’ friday said before bucky ran off, Friday brought steve his shield as thor showed up’well.. we have company’’ thor stated with a shrug. Meanwhile outside, Wanda, Anna, Natasha Clint and Tony, now joined by Bucky were dead set on defending the compound and Gertrude. Anna moved her and bucky to where Gertrude steve and thor were, as hydra soldiers made there way there. Bucky moved fast and crashed into a bunch of them, knocking them out, Anna moved swiftly, killing a majority of them. As she tore threw them. She saw a couple agents sneaking their way and trying to get inside, she ran at them and crashed throguh the glass wall into the room, Ripping their heads right off. ‘’God i hate HYDRA’’ she muttered before throwing one head at. Another agent that was creeping up, knocking him out and plotting the skull in half. Bucky came in and stopped ‘’little gory there’’ he commented before knocking out another agent. Soon they started to retreat knowing they were losing this fight. ‘’So much for my night off’’ Anna commented

Steve rose a brow when Bucky began talking about the current era to Gertie, then again he'd probably looked into how things were a bit more than himself over the last year or two. When the compound shook, Steve stood up as Friday alerted them to what was going on. Gertrude stood too in her blue dress and cardigan "Bucky!" She called out as Thor arrived. "Thor, stay with her" Steve said. "Steven Grant!" Gertrude scolded as he grabbed his shield and hurried outside to help the team. That's when Gertie looked up at the Asgardian "Thank you for the necklace Thor. But you're not seriously going to keep me in here are you? You could have wiped them out by now" she remarked. Thor of course bought it and took off into the open field around the compound opposite of the river where the team was. Gertie slipped on the jeans Anna gave her and then took off the dress and put on the t shirt and shoes. "Hydra sucks, but at least I'm not entirely defenseless..." she muttered to herself as she tied her hair up in a long ponytail and hurried outside. Gertie could see the team was losing, the Hydra agents focused on them, so she snuck around and onto the roof. Jumping down, she hit the ground with her fist, it cracked in between the agents and the team, causing a split. Slamming her hand down on the left where the agents were, the ground crumbled and caved, sucking them in along with it. "What the hell was that?!" Steve exclaimed breathlessly as he looked down the cracked ground and breathed out seeing his sister.

Anna had had enough of hydra agents hanging around her home. When Gertrude opened up the earth Anna got an idea. She hadn’t used this much power before but it was well worth it. She stepped infront of the others and held her hands out to her side, as dark bat like wings popped out form her back before she was suddenly surrounded by bats, the winds picked up and her voice echoed. Through the winds, suddenly the HYDRA soldiers were holding their heads in pain, then they were quiet, eerily quiet.. they started walking almost like they were zombies towards the large crack in the ground. One by one they all fell through it, then the one sin the helicopter above started to fall from it, then pilot then crashed himself and the helicopter into the large crack. Once all the remaining HYDRA agents were dead in the hole, she closed it up hers self, bolts of electricity stitching up the ground before it was fully closed. Bucky watched the whole scene, he had unknowingly pushed Gertie behind him when he saw what Anna did. They all knew she had other gifts curtesy of hydra but she hadnt actually used. Them before… at least not infront of the team. ‘’Anna?’’ Clint asked gently, he jumped abit when Anna’s winged suddenly shot out and then vanished into thin air, almost like they were never there to begin with. Anastasia clear her throat and slipped off her heels before silently walking back tot he compund, ‘’sooo we’re not gonna tlak about that/‘’ bucky asked with a look on his face, Nat shot him a look and he shrugged at her ‘’that reminds me of a god from Asgard, i just cant remember who’’ thor stated as he tried ot think about wher ehe had seen that from. ‘’Well.. on that note i think we should all head to bed.. i myself am going to have a ncie drink.. or ten…’’. Tony stated ebfore heading inside ‘’Steve, bucky why dont you guys take Gertrude to her room, show her how everything works’’ Clint siad, bruce nat and Wanda were already walking back, and thor decided to stay the night there, ‘’i need a beer’’ bucky muttered before they walked towards the compound too.

Steve couldn't believe what he was seeing. First his sister opened a hole in the ground that sucks in all life around them, except for them, then Anna had bat wings and seemed to mind control the remaining Hydra agents who came for Gertie. Steve had seen alot in his long life, but that was a first, kind of a double whammy too. "Uhh yeah, sure" Steve muttered at what Clint instructed as Anna just walked off back to the compound ahead of them. Gertie had only been awake for maybe an hour or two, but she wasn't as shocked as the others for some reason, although she didnt fully understand why. She walked with Steve and Bucky inside until Bucky went to his room, Steve took Gertie to hers and showed her own everything operated, which shocked her even more than the event outside, this new era was so different from the one they had once known.

Anna went right to her roomm, closing the door softly before leaning against it, tony was the only who knew about this power of hers, thats only because he wouldnt stop pestering her bout her redacted file… It wasnt something she used often, she mostly relied on her hand to hand skills, her non power skills, her vmapire skills.. the powers HYRDA gave her.. they.. werent something she liked to use, they were bad, evil, dangerous… and everytime she used them she’d lose apart of. Her soul.. he sighed and sat on the edge of her bed…her hands slightly shaking as she tried to calm down… she sighed again and got changed into jeans, a band tshirt and some runners, she needed to go out and hunt. She wrote a note for Gertie, telling her if she needed anything to call out her name and shed come to her, as a vmapire her hearing was amazingly heightened, she slipped it under the girls closed door before speeding off to go hunt.
Meanwhile Bucky was still baffled by what had happened.. he was in his room now, taking off his clothing and changin into more comfortable attire, he sat down and began to de-attach his metal arm from his body. .it got sore after awhile and he often took it off at night so the rest of his actual atm could rest. He sighed before laying down and turning on the tv, finding an old movie to watch on a random channel. Nat had showed him how to find the older movies form the 40s 50s and so on, it wasa good way to catch up on things sometimes.

Steve was showing his sister how the TV, lights and all that worked in her room and showed her where everything was. When he finished and was about to leave, Steve paused and saw a note slid under the door. "What is it?" Gertie asked. "A note from Anna" he said simply and handed it to her so she could read it. "So Buck and I are just across the hall, if you need anything " he said before leaving. Gertie smiled at her brother and nodded as he closed the door. Once Steve left, Gertie changed into black sweat pants and a grey crop top t shirt that she found in her closet. After a moment of thinking about today, she went across the hall, knocking on Bucky's door as she'd seen a light still on, hoping he was actually awake and she wasn't disturbing him.

Bucky was watching another movie when someone knocked on his door.. he hated being bothered while in his room.. he sight before getting up, he wore a tight muscle tank top, grey sweats and black sock.. he didnt bother putting his metal arm on as he got up. Soon he opened the door, ready to lay into whoever was bothering him, that was until he saw Gertrude there ‘’oh.. Gertrude hey, uh come on in’’ he siad and stepped aside, he aside and closed the door once she was. In, he paused his movie and turned on the light ‘’everything okay?’’ He asked a motioned for her to sit on the bed while he did the same. ‘’You feeling okay? Do i need to get bruce or Anna?” He asked, worry lacing his voice. He didnt know allt he science crap that they did, but if something was worng, he’d try to help where he could.

Gertrude stood there quietly, only planning to wait a minute or two before returning to her room. But before she could turn to do so, Bucky opened the door and she smiled slightly at him, biting the inside of her lip at how the muscle shirt fit on him so well. "Hi, sorry I hope I'm not disturbing you" she said softly as she stepped into his room and he closed the door. Though the idea in her head coming over here, also sparked the flight or fight mode of any person, so she held her hands behind her back a bit with her back against the door. Gertie looked at him and shook his head at his questions "I'm fine...actually. I wanted to talk to you about earlier....before Steve...so rudely interrupted us" Gertie began. Gertie rolled her lips together "I...I just hope I'm not misunderstanding what you were trying to say earlier...but the truth is Bucky...." Gertie trailed off and then took a deep breath. "I've loved you for the last eighty years Bucky. I may have been in cyro for seventy of them, but I've been in love with you since I was seventeen" she admitted, she knew Buck was two years older than her, and Steve was actually three years older than she was, which made her the youngest among the three of them.

Bucky sat there and listened to what Gertrude said and well confessed.. his breath hitched a bit in his throat as he rubbed the back of his neck. ‘’I..i uh.. was.. going to confess the same thing…ive kinda been in love with you since we met actually…’’ Buck said and sighed ‘’for the longest. Time.. i..I thought you were dead… HYDRA.. prayed ont hat thought when i was captured..used it against. Me… when steve said he ahd found you. I admit I had my doubts. I even had doubts that Anna could help you because of.. what they did to you. But yet against all odds, here we both are. I want to be with you. But.. i also dont wnat to crowd you. You have a lot to learn about this new century, ive had a couple years, but you only just woke up today. I dont wanna.. add any stress to you or what will be a very busy time right now’’ he admitted, he wnated to be with her, but knowing she had a lot to focus on specially if the team was gonna train her and help her adjust, he just didnt want her to be distracted by him.
Meanwhile Anastasia was just wlaking back through the compund to get to her room, she wasnt drenched in blood.. but there was enough on her to make her look like Carrie from the horror movie… her face was void of all. Emotion, her mind blank as she walked throught he halls. Clint and Bruce saw her first and paused ‘’that cant be good’’ Clint muttered as they sneakily made their way to Cap’s room. Once there they knocked fairly rapidly on his door before he finally opened ‘’what they hell happened to Anna and why is she covered in blood!?” Bruce asked with worry befor ethey heard someone coming. They pushed cap into his room and closed the door, leaving it open enough for the three of them Topeka through as they watched a blood covered Anna come downt he hall and go to her door,she paused and turned, looking around witha. Cold look on her face before she walked into her room, slamming the door shut ‘’she’s mroe scary than Carrie from the movie Carrie’’ Clint muttered as they opened Steve’s door again.

Gertrude swallowed the lump in her throat at what Bucky said, she didnt want to risk pushing him for anything if he wasn't truly ready for it, then again he had a point, she did just wake up a few hours ago after everything Anna and Bruce did for her. Gertie nodded "Yeah...I mean no, no you're right. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have intruded and told you this so soon. Like you said it's only been a few hours since I was woken up" she said softly and leaned off the door, turning to open it and leave.
Steve had been sitting up in bed reading when he heard rapid knocking on his door and got up, only for Bruce and Clint to push themselves inside. Steve rose a brow at what they said and peeked outside his door and look down to where Anna went into her room. He'd seen her come back from a hunt, but not like that. "Cap?" Clint asked quietly, but Steve just stepped out and went to Anna's room, he didn't bother knocking and opened the door. "What happened" he asked, somewhat demanded, he knew Anna had gone hunting but this was...excessive.
