A/N: Part of the 10-word challenge for Steve Rogers aka Captain America.
Steve knew it wasn’t his fault, but he couldn’t help the feeling of guilt, the blame that he had put upon himself.
The battlefield had quieted. The smoked was settling and the smell of gunpowder was slowly disappearing on the wind.
So many men had fallen. So many of his men, his comrades, would never fight again.
His hands would forever be stained with the blood of those he couldn’t protect.
