"Okay, here's what's gonna happen," Steve says, looking to the child staring back at him from the chair. "You're going to stay quiet and when Tony asks to hear you speak, you will tell him to come find you. Understand?"
He leans down towards Peter and takes the gag out of his mouth.
"No." He says, coughing as he tries to adjust without the gag again. "I won't do that. Won't let you use me against him."
"That wasn't a request, that was an order." Steve replies, "You'll do what we say, or we hurt you."
"How could you do this to him? Mr. Stark trusts you." The kid states angrily.
"Wanda." Steve looks over to her, "Show the kid what will happen to Tony if he doesn't cooperate."
And as much as Wanda knows exactly what he means, she can't help but feel terrible.
"I- I don't think..."
"Wanda show him." Sam says, rubbing his neck.
The woman walks towards the child, and puts her hands at either side of his head as red bolts fly from her hands.

It's dark, there isn't any movement from the man laying in front of Peter.
"Mr. Stark?"
He doesn't get a response, so instead he examines Tony. There's a puddle of blood underneath his head, he's bruised all over and his arc reactor has been smashed.
"No." The kid says as he starts to cry quietly, "Wake up! Mr. Stark! Please!"
Peter puts his head in his hands and sobs, 'this was my fault.'

When he opens his eyes again, he's back to the cold metal chair and has eyes staring at him. He only now realises that he had been crying in real life too, he sniffs and tries to regain control of his breathing.
"That's what happens to your friend if you don't do what we say." Steve tells him with a stern look, "Understand?"
Peter nods quickly, terrified of what could happen to Tony.
"Good, call him."

"Steve?" Tony's voice comes out static as Steve has the phone on speaker. "If you hurt the kid I'll fucking kill you."
"You know the deal, Tones, we'll meet you at the airport in an hour." Steve says, a hint of relief in his voice.
"Where is he?"
"He's here. Tell him you're okay." The man says to the child, who instinctively does what he says.
"I'm okay." He whispers.
"Pete?" Tony asks, "Is he- Is he crying?" Then his tone changes and he shouts angrily at Steve. "What the fuck did you do?!"
"You have twenty four hours Tony, if not, we hurt him."
"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?! What the hell is wrong with you?" He takes a few deep breaths and continues. "I'll be there in an hour."
"Don't give them what they want!" The kid shouts to his mentor, but his confidence wavers when Steve walks closer to him.
He gasps in a breath as a fist connects with the side of his face, he chokes and drops his head.
"Don't fucking touch him!"
"You left one of your Black Sabbath shirts in the jet, maybe it's time to pass it on to your kid." Steve says, opening a cupboard and pulling out the black T-shirt.
"What?" Tony questions, his mind racing as he tries to think straight.
"Say 'ah' for me." The Captain continues, pulling Peter's head back by his hair as he grits his teeth as tightly as he can.
"If you fucking-"
"Tones, you're both starting to piss me off. And I'm telling you that pissing me off is a bad idea." He takes a breath and then continues, "I'll tell you what, if you're here within the twenty four hours I won't do anything to harm him." The man nods over to Bucky, who automatically pries the kid's mouth open. "And if you're not, I won't hesitate to break him." Steve shoves the T-shirt in and ties it at the back, all the while, Peter shouts abuse and fights as much as he can.
"Put your hands on him and I'll make sure you never get the chance to again." Tony promises, his tone is serious and Steve doesn't appreciate the threat.
He simply hangs up on the call and turns to his team, Wanda is the only one who looks upset.
"You hit him." She says softly, she attempts to place a gentle hand on the side of Peter's face but he flinches back away from her touch.
"If you can't handle this then you need to leave, Maximoff. I'm prepared to do anything, are you?"
"I can't do this." She shakes her head and walks over to the corner.
"We land in ten minutes, after that you can pretend this never happened." Sam explains to her.
"He's a child. Look at him." Wanda sighs defeatedly, the other two turn to face him again. But Peter's face doesn't change, he continues to glare at Steve, and if looks could kill, he'd be dead.
"Stop looking at me like that, you're the one that couldn't keep quiet." Steve grumbles, "Will you stay quiet if I take it out?"
Peter nods his head quickly, being gagged is one thing, being gagged with Tony's shirt is another level of pain.
Sam loosens it and pulls it down so it hangs around the kid's neck.
"Where are we going?" Peter asks quietly.
"You don't need to know that." Steve replies.
The child decides that staying quiet is the best option for him right now, he'll figure out a way to escape later.
The aircraft slows down after a while, and it comes to a stop.
"Let's get him out of here." Sam says, he moves towards the kid and bends down to undo the restraints, but he's stopped by Steve.
"We need to be careful, as much as he's still a child, he's strong. Wanda?"
"What?" She whispers, it's the first times she spoken since they called Tony.
"Can you put him in the building? We have a bed set up for him."
"No. No. Please. I don't wanna stay here." Peter's hangs his head, he knows that the woman is his best chance at being released. He needs to use her emotions against her team.
"No. I'm done." Her accent comes out thick, and she storms out of the aircraft.
"Maximoff!" Steve calls after her, but she doesn't even turn her head. "Fine. Buck, help me carry him in here." He turns to face Peter, "If you fight us, this will hurt a lot more than it needs to."
"I'll- I'll walk, just don't touch me." Peter grumbles, this is his shot.
"Good." The Cap replies, he unlocks the cuffs and takes a step back as Peter unsteadily gets to his feet. "Follow Sam."
Sam walks out the door, wary of the kid trying to escape. Peter follows a few steps and once he's out into the fresh air, then he fights.
He turns and punches Steve in the face, making the man stumble backwards and shout out in pain. Bucky immediately comes for him, he catches Peter's fist quickly, bending his arm behind his back, while Sam runs towards him and grabs his other hand.
Steve steadies himself and walks angrily towards him, he punches him with so much force that it knocks him off his feet. He would've fallen if Bucky hadn't have been holding him up. His head starts to spin as black spots appear in his vision. And suddenly he passes out...
