You stood beside Natasha and Tony at the War Table while Kamala went off to do her own thing and Bruce kinda locked himself in the lab.

Natasha: Okay, boys. We need to show the world what AIM has been up to.

Tony: And I have the perfect opportunity.

Y/N: The AIM Experience in Manhattan.

Tony nodded.

Tonu: The media's launch for Tarleton's new Adaptoids. Every news outlet will be there. I think it would be the perfect place for a few dozen missing Inhumans to suddenly appear.

Natasha: We need to be careful, though. AIM will bury the truth and kill any remaining prisoners rather than risk exposure.

Y/N: Which why we need the location of their lab. So I guess it's a good thing you captured Tarleton's bitch in command.

The two adults looked at you while you stared at the War Table.

Y/N: I know what I said.

Natasha: Right. Well, if anyone can make her break, it'll be Bruce.

Tony: He's already volunteered.

Natasha smiled as she crossed her arms.

Natasha: Not bad, Tony. Me and Y/N will head down to the interrogation room and get everything prepared. We'll let Bruce know he's on deck.

Tony nodded and went back to work on something on the War Table. You and Natasha headed out to find Bruce.

Y/N: Hey, why don't you head to the interrogation room? I'll go talk to Bruce.

Natasha looked at you before she smiled impressed.

Natasha: Look at you, kid. You used to be so scared if talking to people when you were young.

You shrugged as you placed your hands in your pockets. You wore your gear but bow you adjusted the helmet's slightly to better adapt your new eye. Your new ax was better tucked behind your back.

Y/N: Things change. Trust me. I can talk to him.

Natasha debated it for a moment before she nodded and headed off toward the interrogation room. You turned and headed to the lab where you knew you could find Bruce. Sure enough, he was standing near the window looking out at the clouds.

He had his hands behind his back and he had that distant stare that you knew well. He was thinking. He was one of the smartest people you knew, but you also knew that he was just as emotional.

Y/N: Enjoying the view?

Bruce turned around when he heard your voice. You stood next to him and looked out the window. The sun was setting. It was going to be time soon. Time to show the world Tarleton's evil.

Bruce: Not enough to distract me from whatever waiting downstairs. But I think I'm ready. Guess I have to be.

You nodded.

Y/N: Natasha is prepping the interrogation room for you. Whenever you're ready.

Bruce: Thanks, Y/N. I just need to ponder some things for a bit.

You nodded. You placed a hand on his shoulder.

Y/N: If you need to talk, I'm just a radio call away.

Bruce looked at you for a moment. Something seemed to flash through his mind as he looked at you.

Mom: If you ever need to talk, I'll be here.

Y/N: You alright?

Bruce snapped out of his thoughts. Je slowly nodded.

Bruce: Yeah. Just, thinking.

Y/N: Alright. Take your time.

You headed back towards the hallway where you found Kamala sitting. You gave her a short wave with a small smile before you headed back towards the interrogation room. As you walked, your radio went off.

Bruce: Hey, Y/N.

Y/N: Hey, Bruce. What's up?

Bruce: It's just, I'm about to talk to Monica.

Y/N: And you think she's going to Manila you? It's just the kind of person she is, Bruce.

Bruce: I think I know Monica well...

Y/N: Bruce, buddy, trust me on this. There are a thousand Monicas. They're like masks she can switch when she needs to. I know people like her.

Bruce was silent for a moment.

Bruce: Yeah.

Y/N: Look, you're a smart guy. I know you have this under control. Plus, we'll all be there to make sure everything goes smoothly. You just can't let her get in your head.

Bruce: Yeah. You're right. Uh, thanks.

Y/N: Yeah. Anytime.

You finally made it to the viewing room where Natasha was waiting. You entered the room and found the monitor which showed Monica sitting at the table. Her cuffs were still on.

Natasha: How did it go with Bruce?

Y/N: Well enough, I hope. I think he understands the situation.

Natasha smiled.

Natasha: You know, the more I see you, the more I see your mom. You're a lot like her.

You smiled at that. Natasha was your mom's best friend. That's why she was always Aunt Natasha. It didn't take long before Tony and Kamala filed in and Bruce was outside. You all watched the monitor and waited.

Tony: Okay, we ready to do this?

Natasha nodded and started to activate the monitor. You stood beside Kamala and crossed your arms.

Tony: This should be interesting. Those two haven't spoken since the hearings. Think Bruce is up to it?

Natasha: He better be. Once we break up Tarleton's little party, he'll clean up shop.

You all knew the weight of the situation. A lot of lives were at stake. This was vital.

Tony: "The AIM Experience". So many better names.

Y/N: We need the location of that lab. Hundreds of Inhuman lives are on the line.

Tony stood there like a child being scolded before he turned to Natasha.

Tony: Tiny Dancer, huh?

Natasha: Let me guess. You would've gone with, Rocket Man.

Tony: Please, not even close.

Tony turned back to the monitor.

Tony: "You're my candle in the wind".

Natasha: The show's about to start.

Indeed it was. You watched the monitor.

Monica sat at the table quietly before the airlock opened up and Bruce stepped in. He was keeping calm which was good. This couldn't go sideways.

Monica rolled her eyes.

Monica: Let me guess. You're planning on a big reveal at the Adaptoid launch. The triumph return of the Avengers.

Bruce closed his eyes and placed his hands on the back of the empty chair.

Bruce: Imprisonment and torture. That's how AIM is going to make the world a better place?

Monica stayed silent before she gestured to the chair.

Monica: Please.

However, instead of pulling the chair out, Bruce pushed it in even more. Monica sighed before she continued. Bruce began to circle the table.

Monica: Ebola. Small Pox. Polio. All fatal, if not for the lab rats.

Bruce: Inhumans aren't sick, Monica. You're just harvesting their powers to make your little robots.

Monica: Robots that possess advanced AI. Capable of assessing the most effective application of their powers. All with minimal....human casualties.

Bruce: Where's the lab, Monica?

No answer.

Bruce: You can reverse engineer Terrigen, sure. But it would be catastrophic, and you know it. You were there on A-Day, and you know if we do it again, it's not just going to endanger Inhumans. It's going to endanger all of us.

Monica just smirked.

Monica: Last I checked, A-Day was your mess.

Bruce slammed his fists on the table in anger as his eyes started to change.

Natasha: Ah, damnit.

Tony: Gonna need a stronger table.

Y/N: Son of a bitch.

Monica smiled a bit wider as she looked at the dented table.

Monica: I see some things haven't changed.

Bruce took a deep breath and looked at the dent. Slowly, he calmed down and walked back to the empty chair. Slowly, he pulled it out and slowly, he sat down. He took a deep breath again.

Bruce: Everything is just an experiment to you, isn't it?

Monica didn't answer, but her face gave it away.

Bruce: It is...Tarleton. Inhumans....me...

Monica stayed silent as Bruce quietly laughed. He stood back up and looked down at her. He shook his head and pushed the chair back in.

Monica: Scour the earth. You will not find our lab.

Bruce turned away and started to walk out.

Monica: The Adaptoids will launch, Bruce. Saving the world requires sacrifice!

The air lock closed behind Bruce as he stepped back into the hall. You sighed as Natasha shook her head.

Natasha: I'm going in. We need to find that lab.

Before anyone could react, the alarm sounded off. The lights began to flash red causing everyone to loom around.

Tony: JARVIS?

JARVIS: Sensors detect AIM forces approaching.

Natasha: Tarleton came for his sidekick.

Natasha started to head out just as Bruce leaned into the room.

Bruce. Nat, Quinjet.

Natasha: You read my mind.

Tony turned to you and Kamala as he followed.

Tony: You two are with me.

Kamala: Alright.

Bruce suddenly stopped you both with a look of concern.

Bruce: Hey, um, just watch yourselves out there.

Kamala: I will if you will.

She followed Tony while you stayed back with Bruce.

Bruce: Watch her. Take care of her.

You nodded.

Y/N: Always.

You jogged to catch up with Kamala and Tony who now had his armor on. Just then, an explosion erupted in the main deck.

Tony: Kids, let's go!

You and Kamala raced to keep up with Tony as Bruce activated the coms.

Bruce: We can't let AIM stop us from revealing the Inhumans to the press.

You ran through the hall where you saw the various airships and gunfire already gathered.

JARVIS: They seem rather eagar to secure Ms. Rappaccini.

Y/N: Fat chance.

Tony: JARVIS, keep an eye on our guest.

Kamal: She's a slippery one.

Suddenly, one of the doors was surrounded by the purple electricity which caused it to open. There, you spotted AIM bots.

Tony: JARVIS, doors!

The doors slammed close again as the three of you raced to the right where Tony began to mess with a terminal to get the door open. However, purple energy surrounded it and held it close.

Tony: JARVIS, can you get this one open?

JARVIS: Sorry, Sir. AIM is locking me out of the systems.

Kamala: Guess we do this the old fashioned way.

You and Tony stepped back as Kamala grew her fists and punched the door open. You raced into the room and heard a low sizzling sound. You all looked down and saw a lazer begin to cut through the wall.

Y/N: Really? Shit.

Tony: Well...this just escalated.

The hole was kicked in and AIM bots stormed in. You jumped down to their level and pulled out your ax which you threw at one.

Tony: Tell you what, if you survive this, maybe you can work for me.

Kamala: That would be awesome.

You held out your hand and the electromagnetic force pulled the ax right back into your hand. Thabk goodness it worked. That would've been embarrassing.

Kamala: That was cool!

Tony: Great, let's focus on the evil robots. I'll bring down the flying hunk of metal.

Kamala: With pleasure.

Y/N: Give it hell, Tony.

You swung the ax at the robot as Kamala grabbed one and threw it out of the opening which sent it flying out into the night sky. As you fought, you heard the ear piece go off.

Tony: Bruce, how's it going with getting pissed off?

You suddenly heard a roar that made you and Kamala flinch. Well, at least he was on your side.

Tony: That's more like it! Nat, aim him at the bad guys and get gone!

Natasha: Way ahead of you.

You finished off the last robot on your side while Kamala smashed hers. You both looked at each other and nodded before running out into the rain. AIM was everywhere. Nearby, you could see Tony fighting off a dropship.

Natasha: Tony, we need air support. Get your ass here now.

Tony: Be right there. JARVIS, drop the cannons. Tarleton will be heading your way soon.

Tony shot down the ship and flew over to the two of you.

Tony: Head to the control room. Punch anything that gets near those energy cores.

Kamala: You got it.

Y/N: On it. Good luck.

Tony nodded and flew off to help Natasha. You and Kamala turned towards the control room but you realized something.

Y/N: No way to get there through the helicarrier. We'll have to get there from the outside.

Kamala: Oh, great.

The cannons lowered along the side of the Chimera which gave you your route. You shot out a line and swung from one cannon to the other with Kamala following. You landed on a platform ready to fall off just as JARVIS spoke.

JARVIS: Ms. Kahn, Master Y/N, they just breached through the control room.

Y/N: Shit. We're on our way.

JARVIS: Please do hurry.

You looked at the narrow path that would lead down to the next platform and you realized just how up you were. Below, you could see the city lights of New York. You were miles above the top of any building. That was a huge drop.

You threw your ax at the side of the helicarrier and used it as a place to put your line to swing across. You landed but Kamala wouldn't be able to do the same. You recalled your ax and watched Kamala.

Y/N: You got this. Just go slow.

Kamala nodded and began to balance herself across the path as AIM continued their attack. As Kamala walked, she groaned.

Kamala: Ahhh! I don't think I can do this!

Y/N: Yes, you can. You have to. If we fail here, we might die. Trust me on this, Kamala, you can do this.

Kamala leaped and swung herself onto the final cannon. However, this was was lower so she ended up dropping significantly. With the help of her powers, however, she was able to pull herself back up and she ended up overshooting the platform. You watched her come back down and you were quick to catch her.

You held her bridal style and smirked under your helmet.

Y/N: Told you you could do it.

You set her down and turned back to the control room. There was a large hole on the side of the Chimera telling you that AIM was already inside. You and Kamala headed through the hole and looked inside where you found AIM bots attacking the cores.

Kamala: Oh no, they're destroying the cores!

Y/N: We have to get down there.

Kamala nodded in agreement and the two of you leaped down into the room. The bots turned their attention to you and more AIM solders appeared. You pulled out your ax and dashed to the closest enemy while Kamala did her high-five. You leaped up and slammed the ax into the head of one of the bots before throwing it across the room at another.

Natasha: Hulk is at the front turbines clearing out AIM. We'll need backup here soon.

Tony: Hold them off as long as you can.

You recalled your ax which ended up hitting two more bots in the way back to you. With them staggering, you leaped in and connected your power to the ax which you used to send the two flying across the room.

Kamala: That's new.

Y/N: And useful.

JARVIS: Heavy damage to my sensors and lower level systems. Please, hurry.

Y/N: We're getting there, buddy.

You slammed one last robot to the floor just as more soldiers and bots appeared. You gritted your teeth and rushed over before slamming the ax into the ground. The bots were hacked into your side and turned on the soldiers as you and Kamala watched.

Y/N: That should work for the time being.

Tony: Where's the party at?

Natasha: Where are the kids?

Kamala: The "kids" are in the control room kicking robot butt.

Y/N: How are the old folks doing?

Tony: Haha, nice. You guys are getting the hang of this witty thing.

Natasha: Damnit, where is the Hulk?

Y/N: You lost the Hulk?!

JARVIS: He is on the deck dealing with a large wave of AIM forces.

You looked around the room and realized that the machines were now turning purple. Tarleton was slowly gaining control.

Y/N: Shit! JARVIS, are you still, you?

You and Kamala looked at the JARVIS AI in the center of the room that now looked corrupted by the purple energy.

Tarleton: Sorry, JARVIS isn't home anymore, Y/N.

Y/N: Tarleton.

Suddenly, part of the roof broke loose and a mech dropped into the room.

Tarleton: This ends now!

The mech fired off a white laser which created a small wall of ice in front of you and Kamala. You were seething with anger now.

Kamala: Guys?! We have a problem here! Guys?!

Tarleton: I made sure your new friends won't know until it's too late.

Y/N: Yeah, well, I'm still here, you son of a bitch!

You charged forward as two more AIM bots appeared near Kamala. While she fought them, you slammed your ax into the mech.

Tarleton: You should've accepted my offer, Kamala.

Kamala: And end up like all those other Inhumans? No thanks.

You pulled your ax out and leaped up before digging in again.

Kamala: Why don't you just take Monica and go? Why do all this?

Tarleton: You'll find out. The Avengers are using you two.

Kamala: Don't bother with the B.S., dude. It's not gonna work.

You transfered your power into your ax and sent the mech flying across the room.

Y/N: I'm still pissed off with them to a certain point, but they're my family, Tarleton.

Tarleton: They'll just let you down. That's all they know.

Y/N: I have faith in them. Bruce, Tony, Natasha, I believe in them.

Tarleton: So did your mother.

You threw your ax at the hologram but of course it went through it. You recalled it, now more angry than you have been in the past few days.

Tarleton: The world is about to be reminded who the Avengers really are.

You let out a frustrated cry and threw your ax across the room where it landed into the mech. A brilliant display of F/C sparks erupted from the weapon and the mech was left as a flaming mess. The room slowly returned to normal and Kamala reached to the command hud.

Kamala: JARVIS, are you okay?

JARVIS: I believe so, Ms. Kahn. Thank you. But I'm afraid Dr. Rappaccini has escaped.

Y/N: Damnit!

You slammed your ax into the defeated robot in anger.

Tony: We're in trouble, kids! We need you on the deck, now!

Kamala looked at you as your gripped your ax.

Y/N: We're on our way!

You stormed out of the room and into the hall. Kamala followed and soon enough, you were both on the deck where you saw a ship leave.

Kamala: Monica is escaping.

Y/N: Not for long.

Kamala watched as you created more sparks with your hand and held the ax. With all your strength, you threw the ax toward the ship. However, something stopped it before it could hit it. A blue blade.

You both looked down at the deck where you found Kraken standing. They lifted their hand and motioned for you to come and get them. Fine.

Kamala: Y/N....

Before she could stop you, you leaped over the railing and down onto the deck. At the same time, three large AIM machines dropped onto the deck. They began to drill into the ship. Tony flew in and blasted one off the helicarrier which sent it falling to the streets below.

Phil Sheldon just happened to be there, covering the AIM Experience.

Phil Sheldon: We're live here at the AIM Experience in Manhattan, witnessing the return of the Avengers...

Another piece of tech fell from the sky.

Phil Sheldon: But they appear to be attacking the city!

Among the crowd, another man walked towards the destruction. He reached his arm out and waited. Back in Jersey City, in Hero Park, Thor's hammer started to move. It returned to it's master just as Phil looked up into the sky.

Phil: Oh shit.

Before the large machine could crush him, Thor swung his mighty hammer and sent it flying elsewhere. Thor looked back at Phil, and smirked.

Thor: You're welcome.

He then flew up to save the day.
