He held me close, making sure that the shield would break our fall if it came to that. When we were closer to the ground he pulled the lever so that the parachute came up to ease our landing. My hands were around his neck and his hands were around my waist. 'Now was the wrong time to be thinking about this' I scolded myself. We barely dodged the shots but we made it to ground.

We trudged through the forest area remaining undiscovered. We stopped short of the factory to watch and examine our surroundings. I silently tapped a warning when I heard and felt many trucks and motorcycles come down the road. We ducked out of view of the headlights. Steve gestured in its direction. I nodded and followed him as he ran and leaped inside one of the trucks. We were met by two guards who  looked at us in surprise.

"Fellas." Steve nodded in greeting. The soldiers sprang forward and we each grabbed one and started punching. With one swift kick, mine fell out through the back, Steve's following. The truck was the last one so no one else would see them. The truck rode through the highly guarded entrance but no one picked up on our presence. There were fences surrounding the factory, possibly electric and two armed guards by the front.

As we felt the truck slow to a stop, Steve crouched right by the entrance, behind his shield and pulled me behind him. I held out my gun and readied myself to shoot or to leap off. As a soldier held the flap back to look inside, Steve hit him with the shield, instantly knocking him out.

Steve gracefully jumped off the truck and helped me down too. Even though I didn't need his help, I accepted it. We quietly ran over to some tanks, careful to avoid the German soldiers. We walked between some of them and I took notice of the Hydra symbol.

Weaving through this place was hard since there were soldiers almost everywhere. But we made it to the top of a small building by climbing on some of the boxes and objects beside it. We made our way through the hallways and found the door we were looking for. Steve carefully tried the door handle only to find that it was locked. I looked in through the window.

"There are too many soldiers in there." I whispered.
"We'll be fine." Steve reassured.
"Of course we will but how are we going to get inside?" I replied. Steve thought for a minute before bringing his hand up and knocking on the door.
"That's one way to do it." I sighed.

One of the soldiers walked up and opened the door. When he leaned to look around, Steve hit his head against the door frame and I punched him, knocking him out. We dragged him through the door. Steve looked around before determining it as safe for us and we closed the door behind us.

This place was huge! There were containers everywhere big and small filled with god knows what. It wasn't hard to go unnoticed here. These things should cover us enough.

Steve abruptly stopped to look at something. I turned my attention from looking around us to whatever it was. It glowed an eerie bright blue that was similar to the serum if not brighter. Steve gently picked up one of the rectangle vials and put it in his jacket pocket. He looked at me and I nodded.

"Let's hurry, Steve." I urged when I heard voices come closer. We finally found where our men were being kept. Steve easily took out the small amount of guards above the cells. The "cells" looked more like bird cages where multiple men were crammed together uncomfortably.

The guards falling caught the attention of men down below who instantly stood up. I snatched the keys from the guards waist.

"Who are you guys supposed to be?" one of the men spoke up.
"I'm Captain America." he looked at me waiting for me to reply.
"And I'm the Sapphire Soldier."
