What If?

Chapter 9: Memory Lane Part 2

Thor: Take the stairs.

Tony: Yes!

Hulk: (Gets angry) Rrrrr.

Tony: (Sees Hulk getting angry) Stop, stop!

Hulk: (Slams his fist into the elevator door) RAAAAAGH! (Turns around, grumbling) Take the stairs, hate the stairs! Ugh!

Spider-Man: (Swings around the Tower, seeing the Scepter's location) Alright, I see the Scepter just passing the 80th floor!

Black Widow: (Is seen taking the elevator) On it.

Spider-Man: You sure you can handle this without spoiling the whole, "S.H.I.E.L.D.'s been Compromised" two years too soon?

Black Widow: I'll figure something out, you just head to the lobby.

Spider-Man: Okay, I'll see you there!

Sitwell: (Is seen with the Tesseract while talking on the phone) Evidence secure. We're en route to Doctor List. (Walks around a bit) No, no hinges at all, Mr. Secretary.

Suddenly the elevator stopped, as the doors reveal Black Widow right outside as she moved to join them inside their lift, taking them internally surprised by her appearance.

Sitwell: (Sees Widow joining them inside) Romanoff? I thought you were with Barton.

Black Widow: (Selects the floor she wanted to go to) Change in plans. (Remains calm while surrounded by the bad guys)

Rumlow: (Turns to Widow) Hey, Widow.

Black Widow: (Sees Rumlow inside) Rumlow. (Looks around, noticing Rollins touching his holster while keeping her composure) I just got a call from Director Fury, I'll be running point on the mission.

Sitwell: (Turns to Romanoff) Ma'am, I don't understand.

Black Widow: (Looks around at everyone staring at her, before turning to Jasper) We got word that someone may try an attempt to take the Scepter off our hands.

Rumlow: Sorry, Nat. (Turns to her) We can't give ya the Scepter.

Sitwell: I'm gonna have to call the Director about this.

Black Widow: Not necessary, don't worry... (Turns to whisper in Sitwell's ear) Hail Hydra.

Everyone inside was then taken back by what she just said as they processed the words in their minds. Then when the doors opened, Widow was seen carrying the Scepter in her hands while walking away from Hydra without a single scratch on her.

Black Widow: (Grins as she walked away) Pridurok.

As she walked away, poor Hulk of 2012 was still walking down the stairs, getting angry over the fact that he didn't get the ride the elevator with his friends.

Hulk: (Growls as he looked down below) SO MANY STAIRS!

Speaking of Hulk's friends, Tony and Thor were seen walking out of their elevator while escorting Loki out of the building when they walked past Peter Parker sitting by while he observed them escorting Loki out of the premises.

Peter: (Sees Tony and Thor walking away with the Space Stone) Okay, Underoos to Tinkerbelle. Do you copy?

Wasp: Yeah, I'm almost there. (Under Tony's shirt) It smells like Axe Body Spray in there.

Peter: I don't even want to know how you know that. Just hurry up, we're on a time limit. Pun non-intended.

Wasp: I'm going in. (Inside Tony's Arc Reactor) Are we sure it's a good idea?
