She's not black cat, but that's her suit.

After suiting up in her suit, Athena walked over to Steve who turned away from Sam.

"Stay here," Cap said.

Athena shook her head. "I'm not leaving you."

"Athena, you—"

"You'll be safer with me, Steve, you know that." She argued quietly.

Athena and Steve had a long history. At first, they didn't like each other — Athena thought he was old and cliche, an unnecessary superhero, whilst Steve thought she was young and naive. All that changed when they saved each others life during the chitauri attack. Now, there's not a thing they wouldn't do for each other.

Steve sighed, knowing Athena would always get her way. Plus, she was right. "Okay, but be careful, okay?"

"I always am." She spoke.

Steve began running towards the helicopter, causing Athena to hesitantly follow.

They stopped when a bolt was sent through the air, causing both of them to look up and see Tony and James.

They landed on the ground beside each other before Tony Said; "wow, it's so weird how you run into people at the airport. Don't you think that's weird?"

"Definitely weird," Rhodey replied, causing Athena to roll her eyes. He always followed in Tony's footsteps.

Then Tony said with narrowed eyes "Athena, I'm so disappointed in you. I thought I told you to stay out of this."

"I'm not gonna be a kid forever, Tony. Suck it up," she spat, causing Cap to smirk.

"Hear me out, Tony," Steve started. "That doctor, the psychiatrist, he's behind all of this."

Out of nowhere, a bang was heard from beside them, both Cap and Athena turned their heads to be faced with T'Challa — the king of Wakanda's son.

"Captain" He said in his African accent, standing up from his previous crouching position.

"Your highness."

"Anyway," Tony began "Ross gave me thirty-six hours to bring you in, that was 24 hours ago. Can you help a brother out?"

"You're after the wrong guy."

"Your judgement is askew. Your old war buddy killed innocent people yesterday."

"And there are five other super soldiers just like him." Steve defended "I cant let the doctor find him first, Tony. I can't."

"Steve," they turned around to face Natasha. "You know what's about to happen. Do you really wanna punch your way out of this one?"

"Nat." Athena said quietly, but Natasha just shook her head at the young girl. She was surprised that the blonde took the other side — the wrong side.

"Alright, I've run out of patience" Tony Said, looking directly at Athena with a smirk. "Underoos!"

Out of no where, a web slung and took Caps shield from his hands, before another one webbed his hands together.
