Rocket number two lifted off soon after and they made a few changes to calculations. This time it went straight up without any problems, all had learnt their lesson and nobody cheered until their task was successful.

The rocket was a two-staged one, and the main body would fall back to Earth while the satellite would position itself into orbit. Then once there it would send a signal back to the ground base, telling it was successful.

The technology was very crude and completely experimental, all it could help them do was simple communicate wirelessly, their main task was to help the warships in the Pacific against Japan and in the Atlantic against the Germans. If they were able to send all 5, then they could cover the entire warzone and even help the ground troops.

But, that hope seemed to be lost as one had already failed, the 2nd one was possibly a success. The entire process would take a few days so Hector headed back to the White House and left Logan in charge of security there.

...

It was December, as he had vowed it was time to pass the laws. All the 4 laws that were blocked by Congress from passing, the Civil Rights Act to stop segregation, Police Reforms, Housing-Zoning Reforms and the Voting Rights Act were once again to be voted on.

The House of representatives was the trickiest part as it had a lot of members, but still, by controlling the big names, he was able to get them passed, albeit not with a total majority.

Then in the Senate, the laws were passed with a high majority. Of course, there were going to be some problems in the coming days when people try to fight them, but he won't budge.

With this, his work to reform the United States really began. His next targets were going to be Education Reforms, Social Security Reform, Entrepreneurship Act, Income-Equality Act(With a few exceptions), healthcare and Baby Bonds. The day all of these get passed he will consider his job finished.

But for now, he had to tackle a major problem. When the war ends, too many young men will return home and look for jobs. These men could not study much and knew only to do physical labour. There were also going to be many with PTSD.

To tackle this, he was going to bring in a big infra spending bill. The real solution to poverty is not handing money to people, it is to hand them jobs. From Hector's memory, the greatest example was China. China didn't go into recession after the 2008 crisis. The reason was simple, giving stimulus was temporary, but getting people to work while building infrastructure was the best solution. New novel chapters are published on

These men who will return home after the war will be perfect for this, a big countrywide high-speed railway system will be built with a focus on cargo. All kinds of projects will be made, and the best part was, infrastructure was something you can show to others for years to come.

The Mental Health Act also needs to be passed to at least acknowledge something called PTSD. But for that, he had to tell a few medical institutions to research it and write some papers. Next, the most important thing Hector wanted to do was to reduce American love for conspiracy theories. It creates problems when the country is going through a crisis as too many fake ideologies take over.

~Sight, running a country is hard. I guess I will go to Howard's party tonight.~ he stretched his back in his office. He was practically spending all his days and nights in the Oval Office, working. Due to him, many others had to stay awake.

The papers were sure to mention how much their president was working. It was all good publicity for the Presidential elections of 1944. It was just next year.

...

Funhouse Dimension,

He returned to deal with Romulus and Sabertooth's bodies. He only needed Romulus however, Sabertooth's body was left to rot in the storage.

Erskine had stayed away from the two bodies as much as he could, but still, he couldn't help but take a sample of their blood to see what it was made of and how the two were still alive. He quickly found out that they were mutants.

*CLANK*

Probably in happiness, the fire on his neck became deeper red.

"What about the other one?" Erskine inquired.

"No, this is still an experiment, this is a risk, as I do not know if someday Romulus will be able to take back his body by some means. These undying mutants are really a pain in the ass," he replied, it was a smart move, better be careful than sorry later.

"Can I use his blood to test some things? Maybe I can improve the healing factor for the serum?" Erskine asked, also hiding his gaze.

*PAT*

"Don't think I am unaware that you have already started testing it. You have my go, but never put that head back on a body, or you will die in no time," he warned him and soon left.

...

*RING RING*

In his oval office, he received a call from Phillips, they were in France right now, dealing with Hydra, "Sir, can you come here and give a hand? Roger lacks the charisma that you have, and... he just lost his buddy, Seargent Barnes, in a mission."

"WHAT?! He still fell?" Hector exclaimed, he had set up plans to make sure Bucky does not get lost, the world could do better without Winter Soldier, although he already was a winter soldier because HYDRA had already injected him, but there was no brainwashing yet.

Phillips sounded smug, "I KNEW IT! You can see the future."

"What? No... no-no. I can't see the future. And I'm coming there tomorrow. Keep up the work." He put the phone down.

~Hmm, it seems some things will always happen, but I can surely change their outcome.~ he was not going to allow the Soviets to get their hands on Bucky at all cost.

...

~Yet another diversion from the timeline. This was not supposed to happen, humanity is developing faster than I saw before. Complete outcomes of countries have changed. If this goes on, I can not continue to protect this world from dimensional threats, for the eye of Agamotto will be rendered useless.~

The Ancient One frowned at the sight of the future she saw through the time stone. Every day, her resolve to confront the anomaly was increasing. But she waited for a reason to use her full strength on the anomaly.
