5 years before, General Aleksander Lukin and the Red Skull were stationed at a camp near the Kazakhstan border. Lukin's Armed guards capture the Red Guardian, who was trying to breach the perimeter. Lukin questions the Red Guardian, then pulls out a gun and shoots him in the head. In the present, the Red Skull overlooks the city and admires his newly recovered Cosmic Cube. He reminisces about his feud with Captain America. The story switches over to Steve Rogers. He is training in his apartment while vaguely paying attention to Agent Thirteen, his ex lover Sharon Carter. She talks with him about his stress level, and how his recent actions have been a little on the...violent side.
