Goodbye US

The military people in the room left one by one as their arguing was over. There were only Alexander, Peggy, and Colonel Phillip left behind in the room.

"Initially, if all go well, you were supposed to be injected with the Super Soldier serum too. It's a pity that Dr. Erskine didn't leave behind the knowledge on how to make the Super Soldier Serum before he left.

Well, the last piece of the Serum was unfortunately spilled over the sewer when the spy tried to run with it." Colonel Phillip sighed as he patted Alexander's shoulder.

"Well, it's a pity that a piece of great knowledge like Super Soldier Serum was lost. So it was a German Spy that killed Dr. Erskine, right ?" Alexander asked.

"Yes, it was a German Spy. Now that the Serum and its knowledge how to make it was gone, the only clue to restored it lay within Steve Roger body." Colonel Phillip said.

"So about my appointment, when would I go ?" Alexander quickly asked.

"Oh, you could go in the afternoon. There would be a plane that flew to the allied base at Austria from Andrew Air Force Base. You could go with them along with Agent Carter. After my business here finished, I would follow up with you later." Colonel Phillip said as he sighed. Then he immediately left to take care of Dr. Erskine mess.

The room was silent after Colonel Phillip left. Alexander and Peggy stared into each other before Alexander broke the atmosphere.

"So, let's go ?" Alexander asked while smiled.

Peggy didn't reply Alexander. Instead, she quickly got up from her seat and walked toward the door.

"What are you waiting for? Follow me." Peggy said as she got out of the room.

Alexander grinned as he quickly followed Peggy footstep.

<Andrew Air Force Base>

After 3 hours of the journey using the train to the Washington D.C and a military jeeps pick up. Alexander and Peggy arrived at the largest Air Force base in the entire United States East Coast.

As Colonel Phillip already informed their arrival, a Sergeant welcomed them.

"Welcome to the Andrew Air Force Base, Private Hartman, Agent Carter. Colonel Phillip already informed your arrival and purpose. The plane would take off 30 minutes later, so please follow me." The Sergeant said as he was handshaking with Alexander and Peggy.

The Sergeant immediately leads them into a giant transport aircraft. Along with Alexander and Peggy, there was at least 50 other armed soldier that would go with them.

"My duty already finished, did you need anything else ?" The Sergeant asked.

"No, thank you for your help, Sergeant." Peggy quick said.

The Sergeant immediately left while Alexander and Peggy entered the aircraft. As their status was quite special compared to the rest of the soldier, they sat in the cockpit cabin.

The plane quickly took off after all of the personnel already entered it. Alexander looked at the white cloud outside the window. He sighed as eventually, the peaceful day must be over.

Alexander surprised by a sudden feeling on his hand. But he quickly smiled as it was Peggy that held his hand.

"Why? Are you nervous about the incoming brutal war? I thought the brave Private Hartman would never fear anything." Peggy asked teasingly.

"Who said I'm nervous? I'm just thinking about the peace and my sister at home." Alexander quickly said.

Then Alexander and Peggy immediately entered a discussion to relieve the boredom. There were 9 hours left before they arrived at the destination, so anything would with the boredom.

<Allied Military Base - Austria>

After 9 hours of tiring journey, Alexander and Peggy finally arrived at the destination. Due to the time spent in journey and time zone difference, they arrived at midnight.

Alexander, Peggy, and all of the personnel that came immediately led into their respective rest area. The welcoming ceremony would be held tomorrow morning.

Alexander and all of the male soldier led into an empty barrack while Peggy led into a separate area for the officer. He immediately slept as tomorrow would be busy. He had no time to get acquainted with the rest of the soldier.

<The Next Morning>

Alexander awakened by a sudden loud siren. But as he already trained in the military discipline before in Camp Lehigh, he knew it was the siren for wake up.

Alexander quickly wore his military uniform and stood before his bed. After a while, a Sergeant strode into Barack. Then he saw all of the soldiers still tried to get up and wore their uniform.

"Attention! Get your ass off from the bed and stood still! You, you, and you, what the fuck do you think you are doing ?" The Sergeant yelled as a bunch of amateurs irritated him.

Then he proceeded to check all of the soldiers one by one. Then he spotted that one of the soldiers here actually already ready and equipped with the full uniform while the rest still struggled.

"Oh, what's your name, private ?" The Sergeant asked as he stood in front of Alexander.

"Alexander Hartman, Sir!" Alexander replied loudly. Even though he was just a civilian until one week ago, but various ability, skill, and training already transformed him into a qualified soldier.

The Sergeant patted Alexander's shoulder and said, "Good job, Private Hartman. I remember you." Then he quickly checked other soldiers.

Alexander stared at the Sergeant back, and a bunch of cards popped out from him.

[Leadership - Master] [Rifle Aim - Master] [Military Vehicle Driving - Master] [Strenght - Master] ...

Alexander disappointed as all of the Sergeant cards was the one he already had. Even though there was more Master tier card compared to the usual officer, but he already had all of them. But he understands as Grandmaster tier card must be rare.
