a simple encounter

america's ass

We were able to safely make our way to the Stark tower without running into any trouble. The plan was simple, there was no way that it could go wrong. Tony, Scott and I went in first, we crept up behind all the past versions of our fellow Avengers. 

"Mr. Rogers, I almost forgot that that suit... did nothing for your ass," Tony states into the comms 

"No one asked you to look, Tony," Steve snapped back 

"Cut him some slack Tony, it's not too bad," I chuckle lightly 

"You think so?" Steve asks, the smirk could be heard in his tone 

"Keep it in your pants Rogers," Tony replies 

"I think you look great, Cap. As far as I'm concerned, that's America's ass," Scott states proudly 

Suddenly the elevator that we all stood in front of beeped and Tony and I rushed out of the way. Scott stayed safely hidden in his shrunken form on Tony's shoulder. Rumlow exited out of the elevator. He looked so different compared to the last time I saw him in Lagos, his face was symmetrical and his face was all one even tone. 

"Who are these guys?" Scott asks 

"They're S.H.E.I.L.D," I state 

"Well, actually Hydra, but we didn't know that yet," Tony finishes

"Seriously? You didn't? I mean they look like bad guys," Scott complained

"You're small but you're talking loud," Tony states 

Rumlow packs up Loki's sceptre and begins to head back for the elevator. Before they can close the case with the tesseract, Tony quickly catches it and shuffles closer.

"Ooh, you're up little buddy. There's our stone," Tony states 

"All right. Flick me," Scott replies 

Tony quickly flicks his shoulder and Scott goes flying. He stuck the landing and ran up past Tony's forearm. Tony stands up and quickly ushers me to back up with him. He quickly presses his hand against his chest and his iron suit appears.

"Come on, kid," Tony states, pulling me into his arms and backing up jumping out the window 

We fall and I let out a gasp with the unexpected fall. Tony quickly accelerates his speed and we shoot forward, away from the tower.  

"Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!" I yell 

Tony quickly whips around the outside of the tower scanning the elevator to make sure the scpetre was still in there. 

"All right, Cap, I got out sceptre in the elevator just passing the 80th floor," Tony states before making his way back down to the surface

"On it. Head down to the lobby," Steve replies sternly 

Steve's job was to get the sceptre and get it out of the building with the least amount of problems as possible.  Tony and I landed about a block away from the tower to avoid any suspicion. 

"I want you to go back to the ally, wait for us there and avoid any contact with anyone," Tony states 

"Are you sure? I can help you guys," I state 

"Kid, trust me on this one, wait for us there," He replies sternly before flying off 

"You're more of a kid than I am at this point," I scoff 

I begin to make my way back to the ally, taking as many back ways and side streets to stay out of sight. One I finally reach the ally I hoist myself onto the hood of a wrecked car and wait for the boys to return with the stones. I sit there in silence casually fiddling with my hands to keep myself occupied until Tony and Scott walk up to me wearing a look of defeat.
