Tower's Meeting Room

Tony sat at the head of the table, and Steve sat at the other end. The two looked around at the conversing Avengers.

It was a black room with lights on the walls and a single window. Tony's back was to the door and Steve's to the window.

Bucky's flesh arm was in a sling, he fractured his wrist in the siege. His metal one was chipped and scratched in countless places and resided on the table.

Wanda stood, talking with Bruce and Vision. Everyone else was sitting and making talk.

"Guys, come on. Let's start," Steve called everyone's attention. Everyone sat and piped down, looking at their captain.

"As you all know, Audrey isn't here anymore. She is completely against being here and being with us. She believes because we left her behind, assuming she was dead, that we intended for her to die," Steve looked around. "She is now a threat. Maybe she should've died, maybe it would've been easier for everyone. But we cannot kill her in cold blood. We're going to get her and turn her over to SHIELD. Questions or comments?"

"How're we planning to get her?" Vision asked.

"She's in Harlem, I know the address," Tony caught his attention. "I've been visiting her up until this point as you all know. We were thinking of me going over there to 'talk' again, I can get her outside and you all step in."

"She won't go for that," Bucky snagged them. "She's not that stupid."

"Do you have any ideas?" Tony combatted.

"I'll go over. I'll stay in the building if she doesn't want to step outside. You guys can set up a perimeter while I talk her into it. She'll go for it, she misses me deep down."

"That's not a bad plan," Steve admitted.

"But you're injured," Bruce stated. "What if she goes after you? I mean if she killed you while you were in good health, imagine what'll happen now-"

"She was under trigger words then. She's not now."

"Still," Vision piped in. Bucky moved his lethal watch, "You're not 100%, therefore you're not totally capable, should something happen."

Bucky stood, "Then I guess it's a good thing we'll have a perimeter."

He left without any argument. He made his way down the halls, pulling the sling off and leaving it behind on the floor. He stretched his hand, his wrist in only distant pain.

He got back to his room and wrapped his wrist with tape, thinking of everything he had to say to Audrey.

Rather, to what's left of her.

A/N.
I can't believe how fast this book is coming to an end. There're only three more chapters left for her.
How're you feeling? Are you liking it? Or hating the near finale?
Well I have some big plans my friends:)
