The rest of the team, including Natasha and Barton now battle it out with the Iron Legions, Klaue's men, and the twins as Stark fights with Ultron.
Mercilessly Sloan knocks Pietro down, he goes to lay a fatal blow when a hand grabs him. His gaze whips around and meets his brother. "He's a kid."
Sloan growls under his breath. "You handle him then." Sloan says as he runs off. Steve turns to Pietro's battered form. "Stay down, kid!" Steve yells
Pietro glares and he huffs
....
To Wanda. "It's time for some mind games." Ultron says.
....
Banner hears the commotion as he waits in the Quinjet. "Guys, is this a Code Green?" Banner asks
....
Sloan yells out as he sends spheres of shadows into Klaue's men, watching as they shred through their bodies, blood splattering everywhere. "Fucking hell man." Clint breaths from where he approached.
....
Wanda uses her power on Thor, completely disappearing before Thor can process her presence fully. Steve calls for him over the comms. "Thor! Status?" Steve asks "The girl tried to warp my mind. Take special care, I doubt a human could keep her at bay. Fortunately, I am mighty." Thor says.
....
Just then Thor sees himself at a party on Asgard.
....
Wanda then uses her power on Steve and Natasha. "This is going very well." Ultron says
Wanda suddenly sneaks up on Sloan, who is focused on tearing through a group of mercenaries. Sloan gasps, his eyes change from their normal black to a bright red, and his gaze trails off, as does his mind.
"Where are your shadows now." Wanda hisses in his ear.
....
Wanda tries to sneak up behind Barton, but he quickly turns and puts an electric arrow on her forehead. "I've done the whole mind control thing. Not a fan." Clint says
Just then Pietro speeds in, knocks down Barton, picks up Wanda, and speeds off. "Yeah, you better run." Clint says
We see Steve dropping his helmet and walking off, his mind slipping.
To the team. "Whoever's standing, we gotta move! Guys?" Clint asks
....
Natasha sees herself in the facility where young girls are being taught ballet. "Again." Ballet instructor says to the students
"You'll break them." Natasha says, her eyes finding a younger girl, with gorgeous red locks, her face hard and dark.
Natasha keeps her face straight as she longs to reach out.
"Only the breakable ones. You are made of marble. We'll celebrate after the graduation ceremony." Madame B says
"What if I fail?" Natasha ask.
We see a younger Natasha being trained to be an assassin. "You never fail." Madame B says.
....
Steve sees himself in a 1940s dance hall when Peggy Carter comes up to him. "Are you ready for our dance?" Peggy ask
....
Sloan stood under a blooming blossom tree his feet taking him to an waiting Bucky, who reached out with his hand, smiling up at him. "Come on Sloan take me home." He whispered, his words caressing him like a soft kiss.
Sloan looked down at his outstretched hand. Home.
....
Back to Thor's vision in Asgard, he spots someone walking in a black cloak when Heimdall comes up to him his eyes blind and unseeing.
"Is it him? Is that the first son of Odin?" Heimdall ask "Heimdall, your eyes?!" Thor yells
"Oh, they see everything. They see you leading us to Hel. Wake up!" Heimdall yells
He then starts to strangle Thor.
....
Back to Steve's vision with Peggy in the dance hall. "The war's over, Steve. We can go home. Imagine it!" Peggy exclaims
Suddenly the dance hall is empty, then Steve sees himself dancing with Peggy.
....
Sloan finally took Bucky's hand, allowing him to be pulled closer. "Take me home." Bucky breathes again. "I-I"
Bucky's hair lengthens, his gaze turning darker. "You are a coward. I am suffering, alone when you can help me. Why aren't you helping me?! Don't you love me!? I am dead! I am dead because of you!" Bucky shouts, his grip tightening in Sloan's hand, grinding his bones. Sloan grimaces, trying and failing to pull his hand away.
"Bucky, please. I will help you, I promise." Sloan pleads
Bucky laughs a dark and mocking laugh. "You aren't even looking for me, soon enough I'll turn to dust and you, you will be all alone, again." Bucky sneers
True to his word and before his very eyes everything turned gray, the trees disintegrating, the leaves turning into ash and falling into their hair. Bucky's face slowly pales. "Buck." Sloan pleads
"Soon."
Bucky completely disappears from in front of him, leaving him in a world full of ash and loneliness.
....
Sloan was sloped against a wall, his eyes wide and filled with fear, raw and unmistakable. He hasn't felt this much fear in years. His gaze moves from the floor and peers up, the look on his face hardening with anger and hate. She did this.
