***Thank you guys SO much for getting this to 11k reads and 550 votes!!! Also, I couldn't even think of a clever title name for this chapter. Tbh, I think this and ch. 23 were two of my favorites to write (besides the Christmas one, of course). Hope you guys like them!***

Natasha had dyed her hair blonde, and even Tony's hair was changed. It looked like he had added a bit of sandy blonde dye, but his hair still grayed at the sides. Steve had completely grown out his hair and beard.

"Listen, I don't know if I want to be a part of all this," Scott admitted. "I'm helping Hank Pym with a few things. Plus, I have a daughter, guys. I can't go back to jail again. Clint and I are lucky we got away with house arrest for joining that stupid civil war of yours."

"Listen, Pipsqueak. If we don't have all the help we can get, there won't be a jail for you to go to," Tony snapped.

"Calm down, Tony. I want out, too," Clint said.
