Hector started, telling them his incomplete plan. Soviets only knew about the creation of the Atomic Bomb, they were not involved in it. Even the UK was not given much participation because they were too prone to be infiltrated by spies. "There are two options and I shall lay them in front of you, gentlemen. Tell me which sounds good to you."

"The first plan is a full invasion of Japan. It will be bloody, we will lose millions of soldiers and the war will go on for many more years to come. The second plan is that I shall personally meet their Emperor and try to persuade him in a friendly manner." He said, a big smile plastered on his face the whole time.

Churchill choked on his tea as he heard "friendly". He knew very well how friendly those muscular arms were. Stalin meanwhile had other ideas, he knew the war would cost a lot more and due to the Indian-Subcontinent joining the Allies and providing immense manpower, northern China and Manchuria were already liberated, this only left Korea. So, there was no reason for the Soviets to fight anymore. Their war was with the Germans because they tried to invade, not with the Japanese.

"I agree with the second plan, if the President can convince that fool to surrender, this war can end with less bloodshed. However, the Soviet Union will not send any more manpower, we need to start rebuilding our destroyed homes. We can help with guns, ammunition and the Navy, however. The faster the world goes back to peace, the faster we can rebuild." Stalin gave his generic politician words. They didn't have much of a Navy so it was pointless help. They were starving themselves so food was out of option.

With the deal finalised, the meeting came to an end. They shook each other's hands and left. Hector appointed Eisenhower as the Administrator of Germany and its previously occupied regions and headed back to the United States. It was 5th November, voting for the Presidential elections was to be held the next day.

...

The War was only over for the normal side of the world. Hydra was still going on and now was much more desperate than ever. Steve was having to work ten times harder to stop all their evil plans. It was tough, but he didn't want to bring shame to his idol's name, the President.

"What are you thinking, Steve?" Peggy, the official lover of Steve, caressed his manly face as they both lay in bed in a private tent. They had not done it, just cuddled in their clothes. They decided to do it after the war and start a family.

"Nothing, just... is he going to win the election? I hope he does. I believe he can make sure more men like Hitler and Schmidt don't rise up." Steve muttered.

She scoffed, "Ugh... you think about him every time you're not fighting, you make me feel jealous at this point. And of course, he's going to win. Did you see his photos in the papers? Hitler was his literal dog. Now, I humbly ask Captain Rogers to maybe leave an inch of space in his heart to think about his lover."

Steve burst into light laughter, "I already have locked you in there, Peggy. And I think I forgot where I put the key,"

"Ooo... romantic, our hero is learning it seems," she teased him, pecking on his lips.

"What can I say, I'm learning from the best," it was his turn to initiate a kiss, and he didn't make it short.

...

Alamogordo, New Mexico

6th November 1944 was not just the day when voting occurred. It was also the day when in a certain desert, a gigantic flower of fire, heat and radiation bloomed. So strong and destructive it held the power to strip buildings naked of their bricks and bodies of their flesh.

The Manhatten Project, where funds were pumped by Hector, gave a result. Not only did he finish on the European front a whole seven months early, but also got the Atomic Bomb a few months early. This time much safely and secretly made. The Soviets could not smuggle out any major documents this time and this ensured American hegemony all over the world for years to come.

But Hector had a burden to bear right now, a moral and ethical dilemma. Drop the bombs or not. And this was why he was headed to Japan himself.

At the same time, he announced that Captain Steven Grant Rogers was going to be promoted to the rank of Colonel for his impeccable service. But the codename will remain Captain America.

This melted his heart, prompting him to hug Moony tight in his arms, "Aw... my boy has grown up. Okay, the big good boy needs a big promotion, you want to be Lieutenant Colonel?"

Moony tilted his head, confused, ~Umm... lie... lierunt... it's too hard to remember, dad.~

"Aww... Is it too hard to memorise? Okay, how about a General? A big five Star General?" He suggested. This made everyone's eyes nearly pop out, even Logan coughed. This was too much, five star generals was a rank too high and there were only 5 of them right now.

*Cough* Everyone coughed together, reminding him not to seriously do it, which they feared he might. Hector sighed, "Fine, you get to be a Colonel too. However, you and Logan shall receive a Medal of Honour as well. Wait..."

He got up and took a file from the cabinet, his face showed a shrewd smile, "You all are here, might as well help me sort out these documents and select whom to give the Medal of Honour."

Seeing the thick stash of papers, everyone tried to run away, Phillips got up, "I-I have work, I need to return to Europe fast,"

Hector quickly threatened him, "You want a demotion, my friend?"

Next was Roosevelt, who started to roll his wheelchair back, "I have to meet my wife, Hector. She wanted me to return before dinner."

"Stop right there, Roosy, I know you're just gonna go whoring again." He called him out. They were best friends, this was how they talked to each other all the time.

This angered the ex-president, "How dare you slander my name? I have been clean for the past three years,"

Nobody believed him, Hector too, "Oh, by your whoring, I remembered the elections, what happened? Did I even win?"

( _ )

Even more ticked now, Roosevelt slammed his fist on the table, "What the fuck that has to do with me going whoring?"

He fell for it. "Hahahaha... oh you poor kid," Hector laughed heartily, others did that too. "My friend, you just accepted you're whoring,"

The realisation hit, he dug his own grave. Roosevelt vibrated in his chair and exploded in verbal abuse. "FFFFUUUUC..."
