--- April 28th, 2015 - In the Skies, Quinjet ---

The Avengers are on an aircraft heading out of Sokovia.

Tony piloting.

Thor watching as Steve temporally patches up Clint's wound. He then walks away from the two towards the back, where Y/N was sitting on a pile of crates.

Bruce was sitting off to the side with headphones on.

Listening to a calming Opera.

Natasha took a seat next to him as he pulled his headphones off, "Hey, the lullaby worked better than ever."

"Just wasn't expecting the 'Code Green'.."

"If you hadn't been there, there would've been double the casualties," Natasha told him, "My best friend would've been a... treasured memory."

Bruce nods, before replying, "You know, sometimes exactly what I want to hear isn't exactly what I want to hear."

"How long before you trust me?"

"...It's not you I don't trust."

Natasha looks at him for a moment before looking over towards Thor and Y/N who were now joined by Steve, "Thor, report on the Hulk?"

The three of them look over at the other two.

Thor smiles innocently, and raises a fist in triumph, "The gates of Hel are filled with the screams of his victims."

Steve just stares at him.

Y/N laughs uproariously as Natasha glares at Thor.

Bruce groans in despair.

Thor glances over at Y/N before continuing, "Uh, but, not the screams of the dead, of course. No no, uh... wounded screams, mainly whimpering, a great deal of complaining and tales of sprained deltoids and, and uh... and gout."

"Right, right, just wounded screams," Y/N adds with a smirk, "And can't forget about that gout either."

Steve tries his best not to smile at that. Thor looks back at Y/N worried about what he said.

Tony spoke up from the cockpit, "Hey Banner, Dr. Cho's on her way in from Seoul, is it okay if she sets up in your lab?"

"Uh.. yeah, she knows her way around," Bruce replies.

"Thanks," Tony says before saying to JARVIS, "Tell her to prep everything, Barton's gonna need the full treatment."

"Very good sir."

"JARVIS, take the wheel," he says, standing and pressing a button next to a 'JARVIS is my co-pilot' sticker.

"Yes, sir. Approach vector is locked."

He moves towards the back, where Thor, Steve, and Y/N are staring down at the scepter. It glows brightly, the blue hue encompassing a huge section of the room.

"It feels good, yeah?," Tony says, "I mean, you've been after this thing since SHIELD collapsed. Not that I haven't enjoyed our little raiding parties, but.."

"No, but this...," Thor tells him, "This brings it to a close."

"As soon as we find out what else this has been used for, that is. It clearly wasn't just weapons," Y/N says.

Steve nods, "Right. Since when is Strucker capable of human enhancement?"

Tony tells them, "Banner and I'll give it the once before it goes back to Asgard. Is that cool with you?"
