"When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew."

Arrigo Boito

With the new team together, it was time to bring Steve, Sam, and Bucky in. Steve broke the rules and if I don't bring him in, I'll be the one facing the consequences. I still can't understand how everything fell apart so fast.

We head to an airport in Germany where Cap, Sam, and Bucky should be. To make matters worse he dragged Wanda and Clint into this.

I watch as Steve runs out from an underpass towards a helicopter. Tony shots an electro-disabler onto the chopper and Steve looks up. He watches as Tony and Rhodey descend.

"Wow, it's so weird how you run into people at the airport. Don't you think that's weird?" Tony taunts.

"Definitely weird," Rhodey agrees.

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

T'Challa leaps over a truck. "Captain."

"Your highness," Steve greets.

"Anyway, Ross gave me 36 hours to bring you in. That was 24 hours ago. Can you help a brother out?" Tony asks.

"You're after the wrong guy," Steve argues.

"Your judgment is askew. Your old war buddy killed innocent people yesterday," Tony states.

"And there are five more super soldiers just like him. I can't let the doctor find them first, Tony. I can't," Steve tells him.

Nat and I appear behind Steve. I give him a look. "Steve... you know what's about to happen. Do you really wanna punch your way out of this one?"

"All right, I've run out of patience. Underoos!" Tony shouts. Out of nowhere Peter uses his webbing to take Cap's shield and bind his hands. "Nice job, kid."

Peter lands with Cap's shield in his grip. "Thanks. Well, I could've stuck the landing a little better. It's just the new suit... Well, it's nothing, Mr. Stark. It's--it's perfect. Thank you."

"Yeah, we don't really need to start a conversation," Tony tells him.

"Okay. Cap... Captain. Big fan, I'm Spider-Man," Peter says.

"Yeah, we'll talk about it later. Just..." Tony starts.

"Hey, everyone," Spider-Man greets.

"...Good job." Tony finishes.

"You've been busy," Steve states.

"And you've been a complete idiot. Dragging in Clint. 'Rescuing' Wanda from a place she doesn't even want to leave, a safe place. I'm trying to keep... I'm trying to keep you from tearing the Avengers apart," Tony argues.

"You did that when you signed," Steve counters.

"Alright, we're done. You're gonna turn Barnes over, you're gonna come with us. NOW! Because it's us! Or a squad of J-SOC guys... with no compunction about being impolite," I argue.

"Come on," Nat says.

Steve holds his hands up and Clint shoots the web off. "Alright, Lang."

"Hey, guys, something..." Peter starts.

Somehow a man shoots up from Cap's shield and grabs it from Peter.

"Whoa. What... what the hell was that?" Rhodey asks.

The man hands Steve his shield. "I believe this is yours, Captain America."

Tony looks around. "Oh, great. Alright, there's two on the parking deck. One of them's Maximoff, I'm gonna grab her. Rhodey, you want to take Cap?"
