[London.]
[A cathedral, packed with mourners. A choir is singing. Steve is one of six pallbearers carrying a coffin draped with the Union Jack. His eyes are red--he's been crying.][At the altar, a candle burns by a framed photograph of Peggy Carter in a military uniform. The label reads "Margaret 'Peggy' Carter". The priest addresses the mourners.]
Priest: And now, I would like to invite Sharon Carter to come up and say a few words.
[Agent 13, Steve's "neighbour" from DC, steps up to the podium.]
[Steve sits beside Sam in a pew at the front. Steve is looking down and doesn't see Sharon walk up. Sam is watching, and nudges Steve. He looks up to see Sharon, who glances at Steve and takes a breath.]
Sharon Carter: Margaret Carter was known to most as a founder of SHIELD . . . but I just knew her as Aunt Peggy.[Steve realises who exactly Sharon is, and takes a surprised breath.]
Sharon Carter: She had a photograph in her office. Aunt Peggy standing next to JFK. As a kid, that was pretty cool. But it was a lot to live up to. Which is why I never told anyone we were related.[She looks directly at Steve.]
"That makes sense." said Hermione.
Clint, Emerald and Natasha wonder when Alex is going to come back.
Sharon Carter: I asked her once how she managed to master diplomacy and espionage in a time when no one wanted to see a woman succeed at either. And she said, compromise where you can. But where you can't, don't. Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move . . . it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree, look them in they eye and say " No, you move."
People smile softly.

[We cut back to the Farmhouse, where Clint just got off the phone to Natasha both were pissed off at each other.]
Tony and Steve looked Natasha and Clint.
"wanna explain?" they asked
"Clint and I disagreed on the Accords as you can tell, I wanted Clint to go to London with me, he didn't, then I wanted him to go to Vienna, the rest you know" said Natasha.
[Laura leaned against the door frame with her arms folded.]
"Did you know she was there?" asked Tony. Clint and Laura nodded, "course he did" said the brunette.
Laura Barton: Everything ok?
[Clint rubbed his temples before sighing.]
Clint Barton: Do you want a truly honest answer?
"She'd be able to tell" said Natasha dryly.
Laura Barton: I'd be able to tell if you were lying, I was SHIELD.
"Wait seriously" said Tony in shock looking at Clint's "sister" who nodded her head.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Later, Steve stands alone in the isle, still dressed in black. Natasha walks to him and he turns to her. He begins to speak without any introduction]
Steve Rogers: When I came out of the ice, I thought everyone I had known was gone. Then I found out that she was alive. I was just lucky to have her.
