Batman's Owl Godfather

"It's complicated to explain."

Steve was half-kneeling at the head of Peggy's bed, holding an owl-shaped helmet in his arms.

"Seventy years ago, I did not die, but fell asleep in the glacier."

He told Peggy the story after he woke up in as short a language as possible.

Although these stories are bizarre, they are not so difficult for Peggy, who founded S.H.I.E.L.D.

"So, I'm one of them now."

Steve spread his hands and showed Peggy what he looked like now.

"Is it really okay for you to tell me this?" Peggy asked, "Isn't there any confidentiality clause in the magical world..."

"No need for you."

Steve quickly explained, "Because you will also experience the power of magic next!"

What's the meaning?

Before Paige could ask a question, she saw Steve take out a small test tube from his arms.

The test tube was filled with light green liquid, with bubbles constantly bubbling at the bottom.

"This is a rejuvenating drug!"

Steve said, "I can't explain the principle, but after drinking it, you can go back to your youthful years, which is... the first time I saw you."

Rejuvenation!

It is impossible for any elderly person not to react to this word.

So does Paige.

She looked at the tube of alchemy potion and couldn't imagine that such a small tube of liquid could allow her to return to seventy years ago?

At this time, Steve held her hand tightly and said from the bottom of his heart: "Paige, I know we have missed too much, and we can't blame others, we can only blame fate.

"But now there is a chance for us to do it again. What I need to confirm now is only your heart!

"Peggy, I will give you this potion, and the rest is up to you to decide!"

Steve saw the hesitation and hesitation in Peggy's eyes. She still couldn't completely let go of this power of unknown origin.

But it didn't matter, Steve had the patience to wait for Peggy's answer.

After a long time, Paige finally spoke.

"I originally thought you were here to take me away from this world." She said.

"How could it be?"

Steve forced a smile and signaled Paige not to think too much.

Although he did almost take Paige away just now.

"Just now, I was even ready to leave with you."

Then, Paige changed the subject: "But obviously, reality gave me a bigger surprise."

She looked at her lover quietly.

Steve could feel that although Paige's appearance was still aging, her eyes were no longer cloudy.

"So, you agree?"

"Of course I agree."

Paige said, "At the end of my life, I suddenly had the opportunity to live a new life with my lover. I had no reason to refuse."

Although he knew that Peggy would most likely not refuse, Steve still showed unspeakable joy after receiving the exact answer.

He carefully helped Paige sit up and opened the test tube.

"Come on, Paige, I'll give you some medicine."

Steve's movements were gentle and careful. At this moment, he felt like he had the future in his hands.

As Peggy drank the potion, her body immediately changed accordingly, and the effect was immediate.

Steve watched helplessly as the wrinkles on Paige's face disappeared, her dry body regained its luster, and even her white hair turned red again.

Too fast.

In just a few seconds, the dream that many people have never dreamed of happened to Paige.

"I feel..."

Paige shook her head gently. The changes in her body made it difficult for her to adapt to them for a while.

The feeling of powerlessness all over her body had completely disappeared, and she was now full of energy.

Paige lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed. Steve reached out to help her, but Paige stopped him.

"Let me do it myself."

Paige's smooth and white soles came into contact with the carpet again, and she stood up, no longer looking shaky.

"It's true..."

For a moment, Paige's tears stayed in her eyes.

She is really young again, this is not a dream!

"Yes, it's true..."

Steve also responded blankly. At this moment, the shadows of Master Katum and Brother Bruce flashed through his mind.

Not only did they not lie to themselves, they also tried their best to make up for his regrets.

Steve couldn't think of how to repay this great favor.

"Steve."

At this time, he heard Peggy calling him, and when he came to his senses, he saw Peggy standing under the light, with light flowing like tassels on her body, making Peggy's whole body look like a goddess.

"I waited for you all night at the Stork Club."

There were tears in Paige's eyes, but a happy smile appeared on her lips, "But you didn't come at all."

Steve understood, he stood up and held Paige's hand.

"So I'm here today."

"You still owe me a dance."

"It's not too late."

Steve put his arm around Paige's shoulders, feeling the warmth of her body.

The bodies of the two people swayed under the light, as if they were dancing or simply embracing.

At this time——

"It's actually not that urgent."

Paige raised her head and looked at Steve's face, her face flushed, "Your dancing skills are terrible. We can not rush to dance and do something else now..."

"etc!"

Steve's expression suddenly became serious, "You said my dancing skills are poor?"

"Isn't it bad?"

Paige's whole body was pressed against Steve's body, her breath was warm, and her voice was waxy when she spoke, as if they were glued together.

"Okay, I can teach you how to dance later. It's getting late now, let's..."

"no!"

Steve suddenly let go of his arms and stared into Paige's eyes, "I have to open your eyes today!"

ah?

Paige was a little confused. She was so straightforward. Didn't Steve understand?

How can a man be so stupid?

At this time, Steve was looking for something in Peggy's room.

"Peggy, do you have that, something...I don't know how to describe that machine. It's like a personal infantry phone, but the communication range covers the world..."

"You mean the cell phone?"

"Yes, yes, that's the thing!" Steve asked, "Do you have it?"

"have……"

Paige forced down the heat in her heart. She went to the bedside table, opened the drawer, took out her mobile phone, turned it on, and handed it to Steve.

"What do you want this for?"

"I'm useful!"

Steve rolled up his cuffs and wrote a number on his arm.

When he entered the number, after a blind tone, the phone was connected, and a sleepy voice came from inside.

"Hello? Who is this?"

"Bruce? Great, it seems you're not asleep yet."

Steve said excitedly, "I have a problem now and I have to ask you for help!"

"What's wrong?"

Bruce on the other end of the phone suddenly became energetic. "Is there something wrong with the youth potion? It's impossible. I'm just relying on the slate..."

"No, no, no, no!"

Steve quickly corrected, "The potion is very useful. Paige has regained her youth. I have something else to ask you for help now!"

Hearing that it was not the problem with the medicine, Bruce's voice returned to his dazed look.

"What's up?"

"It's like this. Peggy and I are now going to dance the same dance we did seventy years ago, but she doesn't believe in my dancing skills."

Steve sorted out his words and said, "These are all stereotypes from many years ago. Now I have to show her what magic is."

"so?"

"So, can you use the spell you used before on me again?"

Steve asked, "That's the one that makes me dance perfectly."

The blues were almost stunned when they heard this request.

Even as a kid, he knew that Steve and Paige had more important things to do when they reunited.

Steve didn't feel it at all?

"You should give up on this idea." Bruce cursed, "Magic is not for you to do this!"

After that, he hung up the phone directly.

"Hello? Hello!"

Steve shouted into the phone, but got no response.

Paige folded her hands on her chest and watched Steve's performance quietly.

"Is this it?" Paige said, "Is this what you want to open my eyes to?"

"Today is not the time."

Steve explained, "Tomorrow, tomorrow I will see what my current strength is."

"Whatever you want."

After Steve's fuss, Paige had no other thoughts at all. She got into the quilt and turned over, leaving only her back to Steve.

Steve was a little at a loss. He realized that he might have done something wrong, but he hadn't figured out what exactly it was.

Therefore, the superhero who reappeared in the world could only move a chair and sit on Peggy's bedside.

He said nothing, waiting for Paige to speak first.

…

"Is Steve short-sighted?"

On the other side, after Bruce hung up the phone, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and couldn't help but complain.

Beside his bed, in a round bird's nest, Katum's head emerged from the hole.

"You two are half as good as each other."

"You're no better," said the owl.

"You really can get me into any problem."

Bruce was completely awake by now and couldn't sleep even if he wanted to.

He could only talk to Katum about business.

"According to Steve's words, the youth potion has been successful."

Bruce said, "One tube of potion can directly erase seventy years. I really created something incredible this time."

"Just make it this once."

Katum said, "The effectiveness of future drugs must be controlled within a maximum of ten years."

While Bruce was studying the Stone Tablet of Life and developing the youth potion, Katum had already made arrangements.

The medicines that will be launched on the market afterward can only restore youth for ten years at most.

And the medicine cannot be taken repeatedly.

Katum has already thought about it and will declare this to the outside world in the future.

The first time you take it, you will be ten years younger, but your body will develop drug resistance, so you will only be five years younger after the second time, and one year after the third time.

By the fourth time, it completely failed.

"Things are rare and valuable." Katum explained to Bruce, "Only in this way can you become everyone's guest."

"Does it have to be me?"

Bruce asked, "I thought you pushed Steve to the front just to let him deal with these things."

Khatum didn't answer at the time.

By now it's obvious that Steve is not a smart actor.

Moreover, his moral level is too high and he will inevitably be taken advantage of.

"Bruce, do you believe that SHIELD has received information about everything Steve and Paige are going through?"

"I believe it," Bruce said.

"Um?"

Katum frowned, "You have to say you don't believe it."

"I believe it." Bruce still insisted on his statement.

"I'll just pretend you don't believe it."

Katum thought to himself and said, "Peggy Carter has a high status in SHIELD and knows a lot of inside information. SHIELD will monitor people like this for life."

Not only the caregivers around him, but the entire nursing home is the work of SHIELD.

And SHIELD knows about it, which means Hydra also knows about it.

I'm afraid that Steve will be cornered in the nursing home the next morning.

"Isn't this your plan?"

Bruce asked, "You want to use Steve's appearance to pave the way for the existence of your owl demon."

"It's not me, it's you." Katum corrected, "You promised before that you would be my substitute."

After that, Katum returned to his circular bird's nest.

His and Bruce's small talk was going nowhere now.

Steve Rogers' Bizarre Adventure is now about to unravel.

…

In the morning, when Steve opened his eyes, he somehow found himself lying on Peggy's bed.

Peggy curled up in his arms like a kitten, closing her eyes tightly, still in a sweet dream.

Steve carefully moved Paige over and then tiptoed to get up.

On the stool beside the bed, his uniforms were folded together.

The origin of this uniform is far from simple as imagined. Steve's thoughts unconsciously wandered to the time when Bruce helped him design the suit.

…

"This is the style of my suit."

Steve watched Bruce twist his suit into rags, and then the fragments floated in the air on their own, slowly forming new styles.

"But it's so ugly."

Bruce replied casually, "It's not a suit, it's a costume."

"Um……"

Steve had difficulty answering for a moment, but Bruce hit the nail on the head and hit the key point.

The clothes he wore were originally worn on the stage.

"Remember, Steve, you are no longer the Captain America you were."

During the suit production stage, Bruce kept emphasizing to Steve.

"You are now the spokesperson of our school. I can even say that you are already a disciple of Master Owl!"

"School?" Steve asked, "What school are you from?"

When he asked this question, he saw Bruce's serious eyes.

Although he was just a child, Steve felt no less oppressive.

Steve could only change his mind immediately: "We! What school of thought are we?"

"The School of Owls."

Bruce said, "When you encounter enemies in the future, you must not disgrace the Owl School."

He said, picking up Steve's shield and changing the paint on it, replacing the stars and stripes with an owl.

"Enemies?" Steve was puzzled, "Who would be my enemy?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

Bruce handed the shield to Steve, "When you fight the enemy, Master Katum and I will help you from behind!"

…

Time returns to the present.

Before Steve could put on his clothes, there was a knock on the door.

A male with a rich black accent asked: "Ms. Paige, can I come in?"
