When the small family arrived to the compound, Harley couldn't help but smile. Sure, her and Bucky have each came here to see Steve and Nat sometimes but it just felt like old times when they would go in exciting missions.

"Jarvis don't you make me wait again." Harley said to the AI, knowing that he was never removed from the doorbell system too.

"Miss Spade, Mr Barnes, and unknown presence?" Jarvis said, scanning the three of them.

Bucky sighed and lifted the smaller girl up. "She's not a threat Jarvis." He said, the door unlocking after.

They all walked into the compound and towards the meeting room where Steve, Nat, Wanda, Vision, Bruce, Sam, and Rhodey stood.

Wanda looked relieved when she saw Harley, the two haven't really seen each other since the avengers took their break. "Who's the little cutie?" Wanda said with a smile, crouching down to see summer.

"Summer say hi to aunt Wanda." Harley said, the little girl not hesitating to hug her.

Summer was a people person, which made it easier for her to get along with people. But Harley and Bucky also worried that her friendliness would get her hurt in the future, someone thinking they could take advantage of that.

Bucky looked over to Bruce and laughed a little bit. "Look who decided to come back! Where've you been you green giant?" He asked, Bruce just giving a small smile.

"Lost in space. I got stuck on some crazy planet with Thor and Loki, then We have to kill their sister, oh and I was a mascot for the weird planet too... apparently I had to fight Thor as the hulk but Thor won." Bruce said, Harley raising an eyebrow.

As much as she knew that Thor was strong, the hulk was a tough opponent. There was no way Thor beat him. "Sure he did.." she said with a small laugh.

Bruce looked down to Summer, who was standing close to Harley's leg, then back to Harley and Bucky. They totally forgot that Bruce was missing during the whole pregnancy so he had no idea.

"so who's the kid?" Bruce asked, genuinely confused. "I mean, Thor told me about it once I got back to my more human form. I thought it's only been a year?"

Steve shook his head no and looked at Bruce. "Banner you've been missing for like.. three years. A lot had happened."

Bruce sighed. He felt bad for going missing, even though he genuinely had no idea how it happened. One moment he was in a quinjet to Hawaii, the next he was the hulk and lost control. It made no sense.

"So what's our plan here? The mind stone has to get removed from vision so it's safe, but that could kill him." Harley said. She knew that Wanda wasn't emotionally stable enough to lose vision, being one with powers like theirs your forced to push away the bad feelings so your powers are Controlled.

Nat shook her head. "Well Bruce is back.. is there any way you could do it without killing him?" She asked, looking to Bruce with a questioning look.

"Me? Oh no I can't. It's too dangerous and we don't have the proper technology here."

Bucky and Steve looked to each other, both of them must've had the same thing in their minds. "I know someone who can help. They helped Bucky and I'm sure they could help vision too." Steve said.

"Wakanda?" Nat asked. "You think they could?"

"Well, it's either they try or the world is in total danger. The people there are very smart so we should be ok." Sam added, "so road trip to wakanda or what?"

Just as he said that, pepper came in to get summer, the little girls eyes lighting up even more. "Hey pep." Nat softly said, knowing pepper must've been really upset.

But pepper just gave them a small smile, trying to push the emotions away. "Hey guys. You haven't.. heard from Tony or even Peter yet, have you?" She asked, already knowing her answer.

Rhodey shook his head no. He knew talking about it wouldn't help her just yet.

Harley sighed and gave pepper a hug, Knowing she really needed one right now whether she actually wanted one or not. "Tony's a smart man, they'll find their way home."

Pepper smiled and bent over to look at summer. "Now come here you little bean." She said while summer giggled and ran into her arms.

"Well look at that stevie, she has a new favorite!" Bucky said with a smirk, knowing he was definitely annoying Steve.

Summer just giggled and looked to her dad. "Daddy be nice to Teve!" She said, her little giggles making everyone else laugh too.

"The quinjet is ready whenever we are." Nat said, looking up from the little device she had used to call one in.

Everyone nodded and began to make their way outside. Pepper followed them with summer since she had to get to her car anyways.

Before getting on the quinjet, Harley and Bucky went over to summer and each gave her a big hug.

"You be good to Aunt Pep ok?" Bucky said to her, ruffling her hair.

Summer giggled. "I know!" She said, smiling.

Harley smiled too and gave Summer another hug. "Mama and daddy will be right back ok? Your going to have so much fun with aunt pep. If your good, I'll get you a new toy when we get back."

"Ok! Bye mama! Bye daddy!" Summer said, excited for her new toy.

Steve came over before going too. "Summer you be a good girl ok?" He said with a smile to the little girl while she gave him a hug. "Well be back."

Summer nodded and watched the three of them walk onto the quinjet, her parent looking back at her waving as the large door lifted shut.

Harley smiled, feeling almost a relief to be in the quinjet even though they weren't in it for an exactly good reason. "So we can trust the wakandan people right?" She asked.

Bucky nodded and sat down beside her. "Well of course. They saved me from hydras control.. after their king almost tried to kill me."

Harley looked at Bucky, then to everyone else in the quinjet. Steve was giving her a nod to tell her it was in fact true.

But she just shrugged it off, standing back up to check the guns on board. "So are we expecting a battle when we get there?" She asked.

"Not that I know if, but Thanos might show up so I'd be prepared if I were you." Rhodey said, watching as Harley prepared each gun. "You have powers, why bother with the guns?"

"Because if i start to overpower, I need a backup plan." Harley said, setting down one of the guns after she finished prepping it. "Besides, this could be the battle of the universe right now. We don't know what we are up against yet."

Bruce sighed. He knows a little bit of what could happen. "It's going to be like no battle before.." he said, a discouraging look on his face. "He killed Loki."

Harley was shocked. Sure, she hated the god of mischief, but she also knew he was strong and wise. The only thing she could think about was how Thor felt about this. Probably terrible.

"How's Thor?" Harley asked. She missed her god friend, she also hasn't seen him since she told him about her pregnancy so there's a lot that could've changed.

Bruce shook his head. "I don't know.. we got separated when Thanos exploded the planet we were on. I went crashing into earth and into some weird wizards place in New York, and Thor went flying another way."

Sam sighed. "I'm sure pop tart is perfectly fine."

Harley nodded. "He better be or I might kill Thanos myself."
