Tony brought her back to her containment chamber, with chains in her hands and an device, affecting her to use her telekinesis, around her neck. To make sure that she won't persuade anyone of letting her go.

The rest of the Avengers disagreed and thought it was repugnant what he was doing in the beginning. But now, most of the Avengers don't blame him. Except Bucky, Wanda, and Steve. They won't stand for a little girl, being locked away that is scared. And has been stolen with her own viridity. But there was nothing that they can do.

Today was the day that they find Dedrick for once and for all. At the headquarters, they were tracking him down by using Tom. And his family. And it turns out that they were a big help.

Steve walked in the headquarters where Tony, Natasha, and Nick Fury was waiting a signal that indicates that Dedrick is found. Many of the agents were in on it as well.

"Have you guys found him yet?" Steve asked them.

"No. But I think we're close. I can feel it." Nick Fury says.

"Yeah, he supposed to be Wakanda in a few days. To steal their Vibranium." Tom explains.

"Wakanda? Should we tell them?" Natasha asked Fury.

"Too late. We're handling him for our own." Tony said to her.

"Well, you hear the man. Suit up!"

——————

When the team got to Wakanda, the king and his son, T'Challa met him up in their kingdom. To call a meeting. T'Challa, his sister Suri, and the king's wife sat beside their king, T'Chaka.

"Welcome to Wakanda." Ramonda, the wife said hugging them hello in their Nigerian accent.

"Oh, well. Thank you." Tony said. "I'm flattered."

"Of course. We like what you do for your country. For the world." Suri said as T'Chaka smiles.

"What brings you there, my friend?" T'Chaka said with a smile.

"Well, we think that your Vibranium is going to be stolen by a guy we been trying to catch."

"Claw?" T'Challa questions.

"No. Someone else. He's even more dangerous. He's captured, tortured, and trained many people. Little kids. And we only found a few. Our first being Hope Watson." Tony said he touches his mechanical arm and shows video footage of Hope now. "She has been tortured, manipulated, beaten, and forced to terminate us. She's in his under control. It's too late for her. But it's not too late to keep it from happening to anyone else."

Steve rolls his eyes as the hypocrite Tony is finishes his speech.

"Oh. Poor child." Ramonda said sadly.

"We'll help you. For the sake of Wakanda, I will help you. I promise you that." T'Chaka said before one of the Dora Milaje soldiers barged in.

"My king, we have a problem!" She says.

"What is it?!"
——————

The group finally got to the vault for all of the Vibranium where it's all kept to see a gang of superhuman soldiers, trying to breaking the glass and a guy with dark chocolate hair, stealing their inventions.

"Hey! That stuff doesn't belong to you!" Steve exclaimed. The superhuman soldiers turned around and ran to fight them.

One of them runs into Steve with a sword knife as his arm. "Hail Hydra." He says before he took a swing at Steve. But Steve dodges it with his shield. He then punches him with it, causing him fall down.

In the corner of his eye, he saw that guy who was stealing their stuff, running away. Sam saw it as well.

"Cap, he's getting away!" Sam warned Steve.

"Not for long." Steve said chasing him. He was chasing him across the land. The guy kept throwing things at him to stop him. But it didn't.

After a while, the guy stopped. Leaving Steve panting.

"Dedrick!" Steve yelled, panting. He then turned around to find a man with a long brown beard and green eyes.

"In the flesh...." he says in a German accent. Steve then tackled him to the ground, full of truculence. Taking his own anger out on him. He punched him repeatedly until Dedrick is so bruised up to the point that every part of his face is bloody red.

Natasha saw him and says: "Hey! That's enough!" But it didn't stop him; his anger clouded his principles. He had this anger in him for months. Dedrick was nefarious, and did the absolute worst to Hope. Tortured her. Brainwashed her. Trained her into something she's not. And she gets blamed for it all. It just made Steve become belligerent as he is now.

Natasha then raises her arm with her shock bracelet, aiming for Steve. She shoots him, causing to give up and stops.

"Thank you." Natasha said. "It wasn't that hard."
——————

When they head back, Steve was in his dreams. More like a fantasy.

~~~~~~

I woken up in my own room back in Brooklyn. 1943. I got up from my old bed to take a look at myself in the mirror. I froze to see myself in a suit, younger.

"What the...." I whispered, softly.

"Hey! Are you ready yet?" A too familiar voice asked him. Then that person came in the room. Peggy.

"Peggy?" Steve said as Peggy moves closer to me. She then cups my face and kissed me.

"Yes, it's me." Peggy said as tears started to form to my eyes. "Hey. What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I just... I missed you." Steve said before Peggy chuckled.

"Me too." Peggy said before we kissed again.

After kissing, everything disappeared. I instantly started to freak out.

"Peggy!" I called out. Then a familiar girl in a gray sweater with white collar shirt underneath, tucked in with her white skirt. Her hair was long, blonde with a white headband. It was Hope.

"Hope?" I called out, full of confusion.

"Hi, Steve. Had a bad dream?" Hope asked with a smile.

"What? What are you talking about? Where are we?" I questioned.

"We're in your dream. You didn't waken up. And I thought that you needed the company." Hope said.

"I don't. You need sleep too."

"Well, a girl who can go to anyone's dream doesn't really need any sleep." Hope said. "Besides, I'm not tired."

"Are you sure about that?"

"You guys locked me away, found Dedrick without telling me, and now you want to sleep?"

"It wasn't me. It wasn't my decision to make."

"Then why didn't tell him that I'm not like they say I am? Why didn't you fight for me?" Hope asked before she pushes me.

"I did. I tried. He won't listen to me."

"Bullshit! You promised me that he won't hurt me again! And you broke it. You broke it!" Hope yelled as she kept hitting Steve.

"Hey! At least I have my act together! We leave you alone for 5 seconds, you run away! And I'm sorry but we're not trust a 13 year old with a power that could kill us all! Like or not! So stop playing the little victim and grow up!" I ranted before tears started to come out of her eyes.

"I hate you!" Hope cried. Which is probably the worst thing you said to a person who cares about you. But I was full of rage to care.

"Well, you're stuck with me."

~~~~~~

Steve then woke up from his heartaching and painful dream in a white room. With Natasha sleeping next to him on the chair. His body was full of sweat from his dream.

Natasha saw him, awake and faintly smiles. "Hey. You're up."

Steve chuckled. "Hey, Romanoff. What are you doing here?"

"Oh, I dunno. I thought you needed the company." Natasha said walking closer to him.

"Well, thank you." Steve said as Natasha chuckled a little. Steve sighed.

"What were you dreaming about?"

"I don't want to talk about it."

"Okay." Natasha started off. "Is it about Hope?"

"I said I don't want to talk about it." Steve said more sternly.

"Alright. I'll stop. Jeez." Natasha said backing off. She then try to walk out.

"Wait!" Steve said as Natasha stopped and turned around.

"Yeah?"

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't act like that. I'm just..."

"I know. Me too. But remember it is for the best." Natasha says sitting next to him.

"Is it?" Steve asked. "I mean we're keeping a girl locked up because she's brainwashed than taking her as our own. Don't you think there's something wrong with that?"

"There is. But you know, we have to careful with these types of things. There's nothing we can do."

"Is that you talking or Tony?"

"Why don't you find out?" Natasha said before she reached in and kissed him. Steve was shocked at first, but felt a redamancy. A forelsket.

"Does that answer your question?" Natasha asked him, cafuné him.

"Well, that depends. Whose side are you on?"
——————

Back in Hope's containment chamber, Hope felt the most disconnected from society. From the Avengers. Steve. Bucky. Penny. Even Wanda, her idol. Everyone turned against her. They fear her. Which made Hope feel a sense of dolor.

Hope then started to feel weary from not sleeping as much. Her eyes then softened and closes. Into her dream.
~~~~~~

"Hey, beautiful." Dedrick said as he runs his hair through the 11 year old I was. I awkwardly cringed. He put me a dirty bedroom with nothing but a cold mattress. He first started to kiss my bruised neck, caressing my hair. I started to cry. He noticed that and punched me in my stomach.

He then pushes me onto the mattress and sucked onto my lips. And removed my clothes and his. I screamed no. But he didn't listen. He, instead, forced himself onto me. I screamed bloody murder. But that voice wasn't heard.

After the heated moment, I aquiver as Dedrick takes a cigar. Full of tears. That was the first time in my life that I felt powerless.

He ruined me.
~~~~~~

Hope woke up, screaming. Full of verklempt and fear. His voice kept calling her name.

"NO!" Hope screamed, running her fingers through her hair. Then this dark magic of dust appeared in her chamber. Leaving Hope trembling and quiver in fear. It stares into her soul, full of evil and bitterness. It then go into Hope's nose and mouth.

After, Hope blacked out. And started moving rapidly into a seizure. Steve and Natasha ran to the room to see the girl having the seizure.

"Oh, shit. Get her out!" Steve tells Natasha.

"I can't. He'll know." Natasha said before he ran to the glass and punched it repeatedly. Until it finally broke. He then grabbed Hope and the two ran like hell. They ran to his truck, and Steve placed Hope in the back seat with Wanda who was coming with them. They both got in the car and drove off.

To Steve's apartment.
