As Sam flew on ahead to be their eyes in the sky the others kept low and approached the barbed wire fence. After cutting a hole Thor pulled it apart to enlarge it and Yelena, Shaun, Madsen, and Logan, from the task force, began their hunt of any perimeter guards. A couple of minutes later they confirmed that all guards had been neutralized and they were on their way to the guard complex. The others ran through the hole towards the buildings. Bucky and Suzuki split off towards the tall manufacturing plant while the others went to the housing.

After trying the door and finding it unlocked the task force entered the housing structure and got into position while Thor and Walker advanced towards where Lemar was being held. Major Piper called for a countdown and at the number they began their assault. There were two guards outside of Lemar's room and neither one saw what was coming as Walker ran up to them firing with his gun, then turned it on the door, blowing it open.

"Lemar!" he called as he looked for the vent on the wall.

"Here Dad," replied the boy and Walker pulled the vent off with his hands, seeing his son lying on his stomach inside the metal ductwork.

"Come on, I have to get you to a safe spot," he said, pulling him out, then holding him close.

As he did so Scott jumped out and made himself full sized. The drone chirped and Sam's voice came through.

"Walker, it's getting hairy down there," he said. "Bring your son out."

"Roger," said Walker, then he looked at his son with a grin. "Want to fly with Captain America?"

Lemar nodded vigorously and Walker took him in his arms. With Thor and Scott running interference for him he headed outside and looked for Sam.

"Where are you Cap?" he said. "I'm outside the door."

"On my way," replied Sam, and landed within a few moments. "Ready for a ride, Lemar?" Taking the boy from Walker he looked at his predecessor. "Kick some ass."

Then he lifted off and Walker watched until he saw Sam start to descend in the distance, accepting that his son was safe. Sam sent out the signal to everyone that the boy was secure. Walker and Thor went back inside and wreaked havoc while the task force laid charges to blow the building up.

In the guard house Yelena and Shaun went through the people like whirlwinds, easily taking them down. Logan gave them the signal that the charges were laid, and they went outside where Sam directed them to a building that held equipment and vehicles. Walker and Thor were already there destroying everything, and they joined in.

At the manufacturing building Bucky and Suzuki stood outside looking up at the tall structure before them.

"You wanted to do this again," stated Bucky, as he firmly grasped the soldier around his waist.

"Hell yes," replied Suzuki, with a grin.

With a great leap they reached the top of the building and Bucky pulled the air vent apart, dropping down into it and catching Suzuki as he jumped down. They located the vent that overlooked the manufacturing floor and again saw row upon row of blue canisters. There were also stacks of bigger containers that they assumed held more canisters.
