Tony flew into the HYDRA base, into what he assumed to be the main control room. A line of soldiers started firing at his Iron Man suit. Naturally, it didn't make a dent.
"Guys, stop. We gotta talk this through." Tony said, unleashing a volley of small bullets. The soldiers crumpled onto the floor, groaning and clutching bleeding leg wounds.
"It was a good talk." He said.
"No, it wasn't." One man protested.
Tony traveled down one hallway, finding a room with computers, plans, and Dr. List. Tony knocked him out.
"Sentry mode." Tony said, stepping out of the suit. The suit remained standing on guard, arm raised. Tony began exploring the computers, looking at all the information he could find.
"Okay, Jarvis, you know I want it all. Make sure you copy Hill at HQ." Tony told Jarvis.
....
Back outside the field, Natasha had surveyed the area and found that no more guards appeared to be coming.
"We're locked down out here." Natasha told Steve.
"Then get to Banner. Tell him it's time for a lullaby." Steve commanded.
....
"I know you're hiding more than files." Tony muttered, then said , "Hey, J, give me an IR scan of the room, real quick."
Jarvis was silent for a moment, then said, "The wall to your left. I'm reading steel reinforcement...and an air current."
Tony pressed the wall, muttering to himself the entire time.
"Please be a secret door. Please be a secret door. Please be a secret door."
The wall swung open.
"Yay."
....
Natasha ran to the edge of the woods where Bruce was still in Hulk mode. He had gotten better at calming himself down, he just had to be reminded sometimes.
"Hey, big guy. Sun's getting real low." Natasha said.
Hulk, upon seeing Natasha and no enemies, significantly relaxed. In a few moments, only a tired Dr. Banner lay in the snow, no trace of Hulk.
