Opening the door leads to an honest to god medieval fortress, complete with a moat and drawbridge. Gunfire and explosions fill the air as a small group of men lays siege, trying to push on despite the fierce opposition. Whoever's good and bad is likely decided quickly, once a flash of lightning reveals the swastikas flying over the castle. Nazis. And this doesn't seem to be one of Jason's sim scenarios.
The Americans down below, recognizable as Nick Fury and his Howling Commandos for anyone who knows their history, aren't faring well. Their hope for a stealth raid has been ruined by the searchlights mounted on the parapets, and they've been pinned behind rocks and fallen trees by German machine guns. While they're protected from the rattling fire of the machine guns, there's at least two mortars going off. Whoever's firing them isn't even trying to hit the Howlers, they're just keeping them corralled while the gunners get their kicks.
The sound's barely audible in the distance, especially with the explosions and ceaseless fire, but soon the roar of a high-powered motorcycle fills the air. Thundering across the battlefield, the machine hits the crest of a hill and soars through the air, the man in a red, white, and blue kicking off of it to carry himself to the top of the castle walls as the bike falls short, exploding in a fiery burst against the fortress walls. “Es ist der Amerikaner! Es ist
From there, the entire feeling of the area changes. Frantic, almost all guns are turned on Captain America as he storms over the walls, knocking soldiers to the side in his push towards the heavy weapons. The Howling Commandos cheer and leave cover to charge the castle as well, whooping battle cries and trailing grappling hooks… right as a mortar finds its way into their midst. Cap doesn’t seem to have noticed, he’s vanished into the castle, but he’d been depending on that backup. Not even a super soldier can stand up to an entire company of the Wehrmacht alone. It seems that this nightmare generator isn’t about traumatizing him, but outright killing him.
It’s going to take someone’s best efforts to search the castle in time to set this memory back on track before he’s convinced he died here. But taking down a few Nazis along the way can’t hurt things.
