Wanda and Yelena entered back in the room and the four women tried to get through the night without ripping each other's hair out. Natasha felt a bit awkward as did Izzy, but they kept their cool. Carol and Hope had joined a little later, and they all decided to have a sleepover together to try and keep morale high. They even left a space for Olivia, it was a waste of food and space, but it made Natasha happy.

The night was going well and all the girls were watching a movie on Wanda's TV, eating out of ice cream tubs. Hope had fallen asleep on Izzy's shoulder, much to her dislike. The film was soon yelled over by two men out in the kitchen area. Izzy paused the film and hopped out of bed, with all the girls following after her.

"Your daughter is to blame for this!"

"My daughter could've died out there, Rogers, what are you not understanding?!" Tony yelled back. Izzy ran out of the room, with everyone behind her. Steve launched at Tony, wrapping his hand around his throat and pushing him against the wall. Izzy sparked her powers in her hand, glaring at Steve.

"Put. My. Dad. Down." She growled. Steve turned around and dropped Tony, angry eyes staring the girl down.

"Bring. Me. My. Daughter. Back!"

"Steve-" Wanda began.

"Save it, I know what she's done."

"I tried to save her!" Izzy yelled, looking to the side as a presence shuffle and stood by Steve, she felt an ache in her heart.

"Don't hurt him." Peter warned, holding his wrist out and shooting a web around Izzy's hands, keeping them glued together. She stared at him like he was crazy, but Peter looked away to not face the pain of hurting the woman he loves.

"I'm not letting this go without a fight." Steve growled.

"Well it looks like everyone's already picked their team." Izzy shot back.

"Tomorrow. At the airport. We fight. I fight for my daughters death."

"Tomorrow. At the airport. I prove to you that she didn't kill her." Tony stepped in, standing by Izzy.

And so they began preparing, assigning themselves to the two teams. Team Iron Man or team Cap. Izzy, obviously, team Iron Man along with Wanda, Yelena, Scott, Bruce and Carol and, of course, Tony. While team Captain America consisted of Steve, Natasha, Peter, Hope, Thor, Shuri and T'Challa.

They met at the airport and stood parallel to one another, all geared up. Izzy and Wanda stood by each-other and nodded, knowing that they could merge their powers together to knock anyone out. Late nights in the training room do wonders.

Steve and Tony stared each-other, while Natasha kept her head down, not wanting to face her sister of good friends. Peter had tears running down his eyes but was covered by his mask, no one could see his pain. Yelena sighed, she had only just showed up and now she was doing this?

"Olivia would hate to see us doing this!" Wanda yelled through gritted teeth, sparking her powers in her hands. Steve brushed her off. Natasha got out her widow spikes, looking to her sister.

"That your new vest?" She scoffed, earning a hurt look off of Yelena.

"It has a lot of pockets!" Yelena yelled, but sighed in defeat anyway. Tony had his helmet on and held up his hand, a white orb generating in the centre.

"We don't have to do this, you know?"

"And just let you all forget about Olivia? No, I'm not doing that." Steve shook his head. Natasha looked uneasy and glanced to Hope, who nodded to her, encouraging her.

"No time to waste, Cap." Peter pitched in, and Steve nodded. They stared each other out again for a while, until T'Challa thrashed his arm, his claws showing out of his suit. Yelena buckled her knees, not actually knowing what to do in a fight.

"Then let's do this."

They can charging at one another, Steve holding his shield in front of his face. Wand and Izzy flew up to the sky and sparked their powers wherever they could. Peter swung up and shot a web at Izzy's foot, throwing her down to the ground. Before she hit the concrete he landed and caught her in his arms.

"Don't get yourself hurt. I mean- just...please." Before she could argue against him, he was running away to continue fighting.

Steve and Tony were aiming for one another, with Steve kicking Tony so hard his suit began to break, but Tony managed to shoot Steve back with his powers. Natasha and Wanda were taking their anger out on one another, with Wanda capturing Natasha and thrashing her about, but Natasha managed to wrap her legs around the girls head and slammed her to the ground. Yelena and Shuri were having it out, though their intentions weren't to hurt one another. Being the little sister and all, they weren't really filled in on the assignment.

"I like your vest!" Shuri exclaimed, throwing a lazy punch at her. Yelena pretended to dodge it, while beaming.

"Thank you!" Yelena threw a limp kick, "It has pockets!"

Hope and Scott, though not wanting to fight, did. Both in their tiny form so they didn't get in the way of everyone else. Bruce and Thor were battling one another, with Thor throwing his hammer around. Steve reached for it and took it in his hand, slamming it down on Tony's chest.

"Show off." Thor tutted. Steve continued bashing the hammer until Tony's suit broke down completely, hurting the man so bad even Natasha tried to pull him away, but was thrown back. Peter tended to her.

"This! Is! For! My! Daughter!" He exclaimed with every hit. Tony held his wrist to stop himself from being hit again, generating another orbs in his other hand, aiming it for Steve's head.

"This is how it ends, Rogers." Tony panted out, but was disturbed by an unknown voice.

"It's not ending just yet." The enunciation was crisp as she announced her words, standing on top of the airport and observing upon them all. Shield in hand, she winked to Natasha and gave a nod of respect to Izzy. Everyone else stared in disbelief.

She launched off of the building and front flipped to the ground, landing in her now signature pose. Yelena tutted, giving the girl a grimace.

"Such a poser."

Steve hadn't noticed the girl's presence yet, until Tony pointed to his side. Tears brimmed in his eyes as he stood to his feet. The girl walked towards them all, shield in hand.

"You didn't think that really killed me, did you?" Their eyes travelled down her body, noticing the new modifications she had made to her suit, along with her shield now looking a little more polished. Izzy sighed with great relief, looking to Wanda and hugging her tightly. They had no reason to fight anymore. Peter broke down into tears and was the first to wrap his arms around her. Embracing her tightly. She took the shield off her arm and held the boy tightly, crying onto his shoulder.

"I've missed you." She whispered to him. He pulled away and ripped the mask off, showing his relieved yet saddened face.

"Never ever pretend you're dead again." They chuckled through their tears and she nodded. Peter pulled away, letting everyone else give their hugs.

Steve stared at her, praying he wasn't just hallucinating her presence. He walked up to her, placed his hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, kid."

"Hi dad."
