[Cut to outside HQ. Lakeside, Tony, Steve, Thor, Clint, and Bruce are mourning their fallen teammate and friend.]

TONY STARK: Do we know if she had family?

STEVE ROGERS: Yeah. Us.

Nat takes a deep breath.

THOR: (confused) What?

TONY STARK: I just asked him a question–

THOR: Yeah, you're acting like she's dead. Why are we acting like she's dead? We have the stones, right? As long as we have the stones, Cap, we can bring her back, isn't that right? [GROWLING.] So stop this shit. We're the Avengers, get it together.

"Oh, Thor," Loki whispers. Thor sniffs and looks down.

CLINT BARTON: We can't get her back.

THOR: Wha– what?

CLINT BARTON: It can't be undone. It can't.

[Thor dryly laughs.]

THOR: I'm sorry. No offense, but you're a very earthly being. Okay? We're talking about space magic. And "can't" seems very definitive don't you think?

CLINT BARTON: (to Thor) Yeah, look, I know that I'm way outside my pay grade here. But she still isn't here, is she?

THOR: No, that's my point–

CLINT BARTON: It can't– be undone. Or that's at least what the red floating guy had to say. (shouts) Maybe you wanna go talk to him, okay? GO GRAB YOUR HAMMER, AND YOU GO FLY AND TALK TO HIM!

Nat grips Clint in a tight hug.

[Clint's anger is quickly replaced with grief]

CLINT BARTON: It was supposed to be me. She sacrificed her life for that goddamn stone. She bet her life on it.

[In a burst of anger, Bruce grabs a bench and hurls it clear across the lake. His anger spent, he turns to the others with a resigned look on his face]

BRUCE BANNER: She's not coming back. We have to make it worth it. We have to.

STEVE ROGERS: We will.

[Gabrielle stands on the roof of the Compound. She has a few memories come to mind. The first one shows Young Gabrielle's father walking out the door. Gabrielle's faceless mother holds her back.]

"Îți amintești asta? (You remember that?)," Bucky whispers in Romanian. Gabrielle nods tensely.

YOUNG GABRIELLE GRAY: [sobbing] Daddy!

[The next one shows Gabrielle laughing with her friends at Hogwarts, then her getting kidnapped and screaming for help in an alley.]

HYDRA AGENT: They won't be able to hear your screams, girl. [He raises a wand and mutters a spell.]

"BASTARDS!" the Marauders all yell. They, along with Bucky, all look murderous. 

[The next memory shows Gabrielle getting her arm amputated and replaced with a metal one. Then we are shown multiple missions, a few with Bucky and a few without. Next Bucky and Gabrielle escape HYDRA by the Potomac. Then, T'Challa marries them in Wakanda at the top of Mount Bashenga.]

Bucky and Gabrielle send small smiles to each other.

[Then Gabrielle talks to Bucky.]

GABRIELLE BARNES: [nervously] I'm pregnant.
