I tip my head back to look above the trees and honestly, I can't remember the last time I saw so many stars. Even in the remotest parts of the French and German countryside, the sky didn't look like this, and I wonder if it's true, what everyone here says; that there is nothing else outside the island. When I was first given my mission by the war department, when it was explained to me that I would have no brothers in Operation: Rebirth, that I was going to be the only one, there was a brief moment that felt... like this one.
A staggering realization of what it means to be alone. Where is the rest of the world? Or is just a globe of water with this microscopic speck of land on it? After a few moments I look back to Bucky.
