So pull me up from down below
'Cause I'm underneath the undertow
Come dry me off and hold me close
I need you now I need you most
- Head Above Water, Avril Lavigne

We came all the way to Berlin. I had to be in the car with T'Challa, Sam, and Steve to make sure nothing bad goes down between them. The only thing that went down was T'Challa's little threat to Steve about Bucky and Sam's bad attempt to joke about T'Challa liking cats. The Blank Panther has the protector of Wakanda for generations. Something I've learned while I was over there. We arrived at the prison. I guess this is the best one that could hold Bucky.

"What's gonna happen to him?" Steve asked once we got down.

"Same thing that ought to happen to you," some guy said. "Psychological evaluation and extradition."

The blonde girl motioned to the guy. "This is Everett Ross, Deputy Task Force Commander."

"What about a lawyer?" Steve wondered. Like Bucky needs a lawyer.

Ross looked amused. "Lawyer. That's funny." He motioned to the girl. "See their weapons are placed in lockup. We'll write you a receipt."

A few guards entered the building with Cap's suit and shield while another had Sam's. He glared at the both of them,

"I better not look out the window and see anybody flying around in that," he said as we walked further into the prison.

Ross kept his gaze straight ahead, but was talking to T'Challa. " You'll be provided with an office instead of a cell. Now, do me a favor, stay in it?"

"I don't intend on going anywhere," T'Challa responded.

This time Ross looked at me. "And you're suppose to be heading back to Azarath."

I gave him a look. "I'm not heading back until the Accords have been finalized."

"And until then, she'll remain with me," T'Challa came to my aid. "If she's not with Mr. Stark, then she'll be next to me."

"I don't need a babysitter."

"Think of it as demonsitting," Ross said. I sneered at him as I felt my eyes go red, making him jump back. Good.

We reached the main room, where Tony was already at. He was on the phone with someone. He was seething. And he should be. All Steve and Sam had to do is stand down and not get involved. And what did they do? They got involved.

"No. Romania was not Accords-sanctioned," Tony tried to cover up. "Colonel Rhodes is supervising cleanup."

"Try not to break anything while we fix this," Natasha told Steve and Sam without looking back.

Tony was getting more frustrated by the minute. "Consequences? You bet there'll be consequences...Obviously you can quote me on that, because I just said it. Anything else? Thank you, sir." Then he hung up.
