"Still no word from Vision?" Ross asks Rhodes via hologram.

"Satellites lost him somewhere over Edinburgh."

"On a stolen quinjet with five of the world's most wanted criminals" Ross huffs as he stares down Rhodey like this was all his fault.

"You know they're only criminals because you've chosen to call them that, right, sir?"

"My God, Rhodes, your talent for horseshit rivals my own."

"If it weren't for those Accords, Vision would've been right here."

"I remember your signature on those papers, Colonel."

"That's right. And I'm pretty sure I've paid for that."

"You have second thoughts?

"Not anymore." Rhodey says as Steve, Nat and me are leading the others, we stand right in the hallway just enough that Ross can see us.

"Mr. Secretary." Steve politely nods.

"You got some nerve. I'll give you that." Ross says as he looks at us.

"You could use some of that right now." Nat smirks. I walk down and lean on the table with a smirk of my own.

"The world's on fire. And you think, all is forgiven?" He looks from the other to me in anger.

"Im Sorry did YOU want to fight the "Fire"?"  I point at him as I throw a pencil that went through him as he tried to doge it.   

"I'm not looking for forgiveness. And I'm way past asking for permission. Earth just lost her best defender. So we're here to fight. And if you wanna stand in our way... We'll fight you, too."  Steve tells him.

Ross looks to Rhodes. "Arrest them."

"All over it." Rhodey Turns off the hologram, ending the call.
"That's a court-martial. It's great to see you, Cap."

"You too, Rhodey." Steve shakes his hand.

"Well. You guys, really look like crap. Must've been a rough couple of years."

"Yeah, well, the hotels weren't exactly five star."  Sam says as he kicks my foot, I return the kick at him.

"Uh, I think you look great. Yeah. I'm back." A man walks in.

"Hi, Bruce." Nat waves at him as she stands next to Steve.

"Nat." Bruce nods

I stand up and walk towards Bruce as the room went quickly quiet.

"I've heard a-lot about you Dr. Banner. Im Y/n L/n."  I shake his hand as he nods towards me.

"Nice to meet you. So how did you get mixed up in all this?"

"I see the dead." I bluntly say as he just stares at me in confusion.
"Let me explain it, come with me  Doc." I try to get him out of the room since Nat told me about the kiss and flirting she had with him.

"This is awkward." Sam mumbles

Natasha, Bruce, Steve, Rhodey, Wanda, and Vision and me stand  in another room after a bit. I did explain to Bruce the main details of what happened to me so now's he's caught up.

"So we gotta assume they're coming back, right? And they can clearly find us. We need all hands on deck. Where's Clint?"

"After the whole Accords situation, he and Scott took a deal. It was too tough on their families." Nat said

"Who's Scott?" Bruce whispers to me.

"He's Ant-Man."

"There's an Ant-Man and a Spider-Man?" He whispers to me in shock.
"Okay, look... Thanos has the biggest army in the Universe. And he is not gonna stop until he... He gets...Vision's stone." Bruce tells everyone as he points to Visions head.

" Well then, we have to protect it." Nat looks up from the table.

"No, we have to destroy it. I've been giving a good deal of thought to this entity in my head, about its nature. But also, its composition. I think if it were exposed to a sufficiently powerful energy source, something, very similar to its own signature, perhaps... Its molecular integrity could fail." Vision  tells Wanda as he nears her.

"And you, with it. We're not having this conversation." Wanda shakes her head while glaring at Vision.

"Eliminating the stone is the only way to be certain that Thanos can't get it." Vision grabs her hand.

"That's too high a price." She whispers

"Only you, have the power to pay it. Thanos threatens half the Universe. One life cannot stand in the way of defeating him."

"But it should. We don't trade lives, Vision." Steve walks around the table to put his had on Vision shoulder to get his attention.

"Captain, 70 years ago, you laid down your life to save how many millions of people. Tell me, why is this any different?"

Steve takes a breath, but before he has a chance to answer Bruce begins to speak.

"Because you might have a choice. Your mind is made up of a complex construct of overlays. Jarvis, Ultron, Tony, me, the Stone. All of them mixed together. All of them learning from one another." He explains.

"You're saying Vision isn't just the stone?" Wanda looks at Bruce in hope.

"I'm saying that... If we take out the stone, there's still a whole lot of Vision left. Perhaps the best parts."

"Can we do that?" Nat ask's

"Not me. Not here."

"You better find someone, and somewhere fast. Ross isn't exactly just gonna let you guys have your old rooms back." Rhodes tells us as he sit at the table. 

I look at Steve with hopeful  eyes and a large grin as I wait for Steve to say what I want him to say. He just shakes his head at me playfully.

"I know somewhere." He tells them making me jump from my seat and hug him.

In Wakanda, as T'Challa and Okoye walk together, accompanied by two Wakandan soldiers.

"You'll have the King's Guard, and the Dora Milaje have been alerted." Okoye tells her king.

"And the border tribe?"

" Those that are left."

"Send word to the Jabari as well. M'Baku likes a good fight." T'Challa says to her as they kept walking through a field.

"And what of this one?" She points to a Man feeding some animals.

"This one may be tired of war. but the White Wolf has rested long enough. Besides, his wife is finally coming home."

The Wakandan soldiers present the White Wolf with a new adamantium arm.

"Where's the fight?" Bucky look up at the king.

"On it's way."
