Commotion is what turned their attention away from brainstorming to the monitor hanging in the corner of the room.

The screen displayed the footage from the cameras recording in the hospital room that held Stiles, enabling the Avengers to keep an eye on the teenager to make sure he didn't try to make a run for it...again.

They all simultaneously looked up at the monitor, watching as Stiles reeled away from nurse, a choked, "Don't touch me!" leaving his mouth.

The picture on the screen was clear as the nurse made a move towards the teenager, only for him to yell again, "Stay away from me!"

"Should we ste-" Fury raised a hand, interrupting Rhodey's question. "Let me see how this plays out."

And it was obvious that Captain America and the rest of his team wanted to argue, but before anyone could speak up, Stiles' was shouting again.

"G-Get away from me!" Steve stood up quickly as he watched Stiles fall backwards off of the bed, a strangled cry sounding through the TV's speakers as he landed with a thud.

"I'm going in," He said, his voice holding no room for argument.

Or so he thought.

"Captain Rogers," Fury stated, "Stand down until I give the go-ahead. I want to see if he uses his abilities." In the background, Stiles' was shouting again, his voice growing increasingly hysterical.

"And if he doesn't?" Natasha questioned, the assassin raising an eyebrow.

Director Fury opened his mouth to reply, only for an agonizing scream to be heard- both through the speakers and throughout the building.

And at the same time, the electricity throughout the building surged- and Steve took that as enough of a go-ahead to take off towards the hospital room.

He sprinted down the hall, skidding towards the door on his heels in an effort not to bypass the door to his room by the force of momentum. Steve practically barged in, ignoring the presence of the distraught nurse in order to cross the room towards the bathroom door.

He fought back the urge to curse when he twisted the doorknob, only to find it stiff- a telltale sign that it was locked. He pressed his ear to the wood, listening for any sound that would give way that Stiles was actually in there and that what they just witnessed over the monitor wasn't a facade to escape again.

"JARVIS, run a heat scan, make sure the kid is in there and that he's away from the door," Steve turned quickly, coming face to almost face with Tony, whom was wearing his holographic headset, a quiet 'On it, Sir' sounding in the background. "It's clear. Break the door down." The genius stated after a brief moment.

Steve nodded, grasping the doorknob once again before ramming the side of his body into the door. The hinges crackled, not quite broken but almost there. The captain reeled back again before slamming into the door once more, successfully causing it to open.
