Stephen's POV

Of course he would only be bothered by the large breeze, what else? It caused me to chuckle. "The windows are open, Stark." I hummed out, before looking at him "And there was a small fight between your son and I believe her name is Shadow?" I knew the winter soldier is still here, I heard a thud and running footsteps but I casted a spell so the others wouldn't hear. I decided to let him go, he didn't need a fight. I took away something he cares for. Funny that, is it not? I looked straight ahead almost as if I was looking at the 'reader', I then turned back to face Tony before I gave a soft chuckle.

"Irondad..Dr. Strange kind of saved my life."

Peter looked at Tony as he spoke, I watched before noticing that Tony had stopped moving, he tried to turn to face me from shock. I smiled but knew he couldn't see it. Peter hugged the male who gripped onto the smaller. "Y..you saved my sons life? Thank you.." he was so genuine, just like the past..Of course, I hummed. "Of course," I started to speak before I went over and touched his shoulder. "A young person shouldn't ever be in the way of an almost death experience." I then moved my hand or went to - Tony grasped my hand - and used that as a way to find my face, most likely to know what my expression is. I made my expression soft and gently guided his hands to my face. I knelt down to his height.

Tony's POV

I was abit more bothered by the large breeze, it was not something that we normally allow in the house due to Sophie who would try get out whatever is causing the breeze. I heard a chuckle.

"The windows are open, Stark." Someone hummed out, I felt eyes on me. Was this person looking at me. "And there was a small fight between your son and I believe her name is Shadow?", I felt the person look away for a small period of time before they looked back at me only to softly chuckle.

"Irondad..Dr. Strange kind of saved my life."

I knew Peter was looking at me, I grew worried. Is he okay? Oh god what if he got hurt badly?! I stopped moving and I tried to turn to the called 'Dr. Strange' from shock that he had saved my son. I didn't know what expression he did, Peter then hugged me but I gripped onto the smaller male. "Y..you saved my sons life? Thank you.." I was was so genuine with my response, the man hummed. "Of course," He started to speak before he came over and touched my shoulder. "A young person should not ever be in the way of an almost death experience." He then moved his hand or went to - I grasped my hand - and used that as a way to find his face, to know what his expression is. He gently guided my hands to his face. He knelt down to my height, probably. I smiled lightly.

I then frowned as I thought of who Shadow is. I however was just extremely thankful that my son is okay. I then removed my hands from Dr. Strange's face. "Again..Thank you, it means a lot that you saved my son." I was happy he's safe at least. I just hope he was not injured badly, but would Dr. Strange have treated them? Maybe. I hope at least..But Nick should visiting soon, I wonder if he will bring anyone..But I did need to discuss something with him for..Steve.

Nick Fury's POV

I knew it was almost time to visit Tony, but I was on two minds of bringing Steve with me. For many reasons, but I stared to both Clint and Natasha who was outside his cell, the two seemed to be talking to him which I was slightly happy about but I was worried. Sighing I just shook my head.

"Agent Barton and Agent Romanoff, we should bring Captain with us so we know he would not get lonely nor have an attack against himself." I spoke clearly and sternly. The two agents nodded and smiled at me, Natasha however mouthed 'Yes, dad.' Which made my heart melt, somewhat. I chuckled very quietly so they could not hear me. I then looked at the male in the cell, he was rocking and shaking. Muttering as well.

"Cap, calm down." Natasha spoke up first and knelt down, she placed her hand against the glass which caused me to walk over. I had not ever seen the captain react this badly, what the f**k was going on?

"Steve?" I called his first name rather than his last or code name. I saw him look up at me with tears streaming down his face, this was different to earlier as well. Fuck..That is not something I would have expected from the captain at all. I pressed something and the glass coverage keeping us separated disappeared, he crawled back. Did he think I was going to hurt him?

Clint Barton's POV

I walked over to Natasha as she was looking at someone in a cell, of course I did not understand who was there at first until I got closer. 'Captain?!' I thought in shock and surprise, never thought I'd see the Captain in one of these cells. I looked at Natasha in shock but she explained the situation to me, my mind blanked. Cap tried to do what to Tony?! Well at least Peter was there to stop him.

"Was he out of his mind? Or..?" I asked to Natasha in worry, I never thought he would do something like that at all. Was something wrong? I did not exactly know and it confused me. Natasha shook her head and frowned slightly, "We do not exactly know what caused him to do what he did, but whatever it was. It was not good.." she muttered as we watched Steve. I frowned at that, normally she knew. If she did not know what was wrong with Steve then something must definitely be wrong.

"Agent Barton and Agent Romanoff, we should bring Captain with us so we know he would not get lonely nor have an attack against himself." I heard Nick Fury speak up, of course me and Nat nodded and smiled at him. Natasha however mouthed something to him which I did not know what it was, I noticed he looked at Steve who was now rocking and shaking as well as muttering.

"Cap, calm down." Natasha spoke up first and knelt down, she placed her hand against the glass which caused Nick Fury to walk over. I had not ever seen the captain react this badly, what the f**k was going on? Is he okay?

"Steve?" Fury called his first name rather than his last or code name. We saw him look up at Fury with tears streaming down his face, this was different to earlier as well. Fuck..That is not something any would have expected from the captain at all. Nick pressed something and the glass coverage keeping us separated disappeared, he crawled back. I did not like seeing him this way. Of course, I was worried. I did not know if the Captain is okay.

Steve Roger's POV

While sitting in the cell infront of Nick Fury, Natasha Romanoff and now Clint Barton. I was fine with it, I heard Clint ask why I was in here and what Natasha responded with why. I rolled my eyes slightly when I heard Barton ask a stupid question.

"Was he out of his mind? Or..?" He asked it to Natasha or Fury, I did not care which one. I however heard Natasha speak up for a reply. "We do not exactly know what caused him to do what he did, but whatever it was. It was not good.." She muttered it as they watched me, I heard shuffling of footsteps then Fury's voice. "Agent Barton and Agent Romanoff, we should bring Captain with us so we know he would not get lonely nor have an attack against himself."

Of course I looked up to see them nod to him, however I started to breathe weirdly. I thought it was because of my asthma slowly coming back and playing up as a punishment but it got hard to breath which made me realise it was either an anxiety attack or panic attack. But why was I having one? I did not understand why. I had started to rock and shake, muttering things to try calm myself down. I was not sure if the three had turned to look at me or not.

"Cap, calm down." I just barely heard Natasha say it, she most of knelt down cause I heard a small 'thunk' against the glass. I looked slightly and saw she had placed her hand against the glass.

"Steve?" Fury called my first name rather than my last or code name. I looked up at Fury with tears streaming down my face, this was different to earlier as well. Earlier I was fine and okay but now..I am like this. Nick must of pressed something and the glass coverage keeping us separated disappeared, I crawled back. I thought that he was going to hit me or worse. I felt sickly, it did not feel right.

Soon my vision blurred, things was hard to see. I looked at where Natasha, Clint and Nick was before I fell against the ground. I guess my asthma had also played up.. It did not do well for me, but I felt remorse and regret for what just happened.

Time Skip (Can not be asked to say what happened after.)

Tony Stark's POV

I knew Steve was with Fury, Natasha and Clint and it felt like heaven for the fact I was able to hear them again. I knew Stephen was still at the house as he was helping Peter. I looked at where Steve was - which he was placed next to me. I had asked him to be sat next to me -, Fury seemed nervous which made me confused. He then explained to me that Steve something had caused the blonde? Is he still blonde? To have an anxiety or panic attack. Of course that shocked me, Cap had an attack of that kind..?

"We know it is new and that he never had them before but we think what had happened earlier yesterday morning has something to do with this." I heard Fury say, which now I thought about it..Steve was acting weirdly, his tone of voice and actions was out of character for him. Even when I could see it still happened and it did worry me. I frowned slightly. "He did act off or weirdly at times when I was not blind but it seemed to have gotten worse once I became blind," of course I ended up getting worried about Steve. I looked at Fury before I grew serious with my tone,

"Director Fury, I know you may possibly disagree for this but I have reason to believe that his old friend James Barnes I believe is his name, is active. We should let Steve go after him. It may be beneficial to getting our normal Captain America back." I spoke sternly yet strictly which from the soft muttering from Natasha and Clint I assumed Fury's expression was of anger or confusion. I understand why he would be confused. He must decide to accept my request or I will snap at him.

I did not know what his current expression is but I heard a sigh from him. I knew he gave in, he only ever made that sound when he gave into something I had or have said. "Alright, fine. I give him two and a half weeks, if he does NOT find his friend by the time is up, I will make sure he stays in jail." Fury said sternly yet worriedly so I smiled lightly once I realised he gave into my words.

Peter's POV

Is..IronDad being serious? He is willing to give Captain Rogers another chance? After what he done?! I growled lowly and quietly, not pleased about it. I however accepted the fact IronDad wanted to give him a second chance. "Kid? You alright?" I heard being asked to me, I looked up and saw Strange. I nodded slowly, frowning. "Yea..Just, my dad got hurt by the man whose unconscious next to him, I just..I do not want him hurt."

I murmured, upset. I do not want to see my dad hurt, not by Captain Rogers. Not again. So many times he was hurt and it just - it hurt. I sighed before looking at IronDad and Steve. My blood boiled, I did not want to see him back here. But I could not do anything about it. Which angered me.

Nick Fury's POV

Once we had gone to visit Tony, we made sure he knew we was here. Once we was inside, I talk with Tony privately for a few moments, I explained what happened with Steve and why he will be on the laying on sofa / couch unconscious. I watched as he gave a confused expression so I sighed. I then fully explained what exactly happened. Of course, he then understood what had happened. He nodded to me as if to say it would be alright.

I was unaware that there was someone else at the house, once we had all sat down, Steve was placed next to Tony. Reason being? He had asked Steve be placed next to him. Me, Natasha and Clint watched as Steve's chest rose and fell, a slow pace. Signifying he is alive but barely as well. I noticed Tony looked to Steve, I was nervous. Nervous because of the past And what had happened a few hours ago. "We know it is new and that he never had them before but we think what had happened earlier yesterday morning has something to do with this."

I spoke as I watched Tony for any response, he seemed to think then frown slightly. "He did act off or weirdly at times when I was not blind but it seemed to have gotten worse once I became blind," his tone then grew serious after he looked at me. "Director Fury, I know you may possibly disagree for this but I have reason to believe that his old friend James Barnes I believe is his name, is active. We should let Steve go after him. It may be beneficial to getting our normal Captain America back." He spoke sternly yet strictly, which did cause soft muttering from Natasha and Clint. My expression was not angry, although Tony must of thought it was. It was confusion for why, I thought about the choices before I sighed.

"Alright, fine. I give him two and a half weeks, if he does NOT find his friend by the time is up, I will make sure he stays in jail." I said sternly yet worriedly, I saw the light smile from him. I had a tiny smile at that, of course I would monitor the reactions between the two however. Of course I would.

Donna Strange POV

I walked around, haven been out of the coma for a few years. I did not know exactly where I am or where I am going but something told me that I needed to find my brother. 'Oh god..Big brother..' I thought to myself, wanting to cry, he must blame himself. It was not his fault, it truly was not. I have learnt to swim now, better than what I already could. Since the hospital helped me once I was okay enough to move around.

I walked the streets, this certainly was not Nebraska, where Stephen, Victor and I was born. I wondered where I was before I saw a sign, "New York huh..?" I murmured to myself. Wondering how I ended up here. I shook my head slightly, looking around. Curious as to how I ended up here. Although I got ran into by someone covered in dark clothing (This was Bucky), of course I grunted and almost fell down into the road until the stranger pulled be back onto the pathway then went back to running. I did not know who that just was but I ignored it, thinking that it was just some teenager late for an after school activity of somesort that took place alittle after the school time.

I kept walking but now also keeping aware of my surroundings, mainly because I did NOT want to almost fall into the busy road. I stood still and walked abit further away from the road so I could rest for a few moments, of course I did not understand what was going on. Frowning, I went back to walking, that was until I heard a familiar voice from not far, I looked at a house and went to the window. I saw my brother and some teenager? Young adult? I did not know which it was but two was clearly talking about something. 'Brother..?' I quietly murmured to myself, shocked. I realised who the other was. Peter Parker, the intern to Tony Stark and boy from Queens. I was shocked by that.

I had not realised that Stephen saw me, I however heard him choke on air. "D..Donna?" He questioned, of course I only just then realised that he saw me. I stayed there before he disappeared then appeared beside me, he used..a portal? I looked up at my brother and touched his cheek. Smiling, my bottom lip quivered. "Hi big brother," I spoke softly yet gently. "H..how?! I..I saw you die.." he muttered confused and he knelt down to my height which I smiled softly at, he really does blame himself..Damnit Steph..I hugged him. Tightly. It made him relax and hug me back, although he picked me up since I am smaller than he is, I let him carry me inside. Once inside he sat me on a countertop and refused to let me go, he ended up crying against my shoulder. I looked at the younger male with a soft smile.

"Hello, what is your name?" I asked softly, knowing who he is. But I wanted to make sure. He then confirmed that he indeed is Peter Parker so I gave a small nod. I wondered whose house this is, because I did not believe it was my brothers, as he did not like some of the colors on the cups / mugs, walls, etc. I waited until Stephen was calmer. I then smiled as he looked at me with glossy eyes, "Stephen, please do not cry. It is alright. There is no reason for you to cry..."

Peter Parker's POV

Me and Mr. Strange was in the kitchen, we had been talking about if Mr. Strange could help with IronDad's depression and all that, or if he knew someone who could help. Although I was curious to know if Mr. Strange had any siblings so I had asked him, which he agreed that he does. He has a younger brother and sister called Victor and Donna but Donna had drowned when they was younger. Of course, being curious until I heard a sound from outside. I heard someone murmur 'Brother..?'.

I noticed that Mr. Strange had saw the person, he choked on air. "D..Donna?" He questioned which shocked me, as in his dead sister?! He disappeared through a portal and appeared next to the girl outside. She looked up at him, clearly much shorter which I found somewhat amusing. She touched his cheek and I could hear what was being said. I found it really sweet that the siblings reconnected. He picked her up and came back inside which I watched him, curious. Once they was inside, Mr. Strange put the girl onto a countertop and refused to let her go from the grip I saw him have, I took notice that the female looked at me with a soft smile.

"Hello, what is your name?" She asked softly, I blinked lightly but said that my name is Peter Parker to which she gave a small nod. She waited for Mr. Strange to calm down and after a few moments she smiled. I wonder how close they actually were in the past.

A/N: This is the only warning you get before it gets to when Anthony attempts to kill himself by jumping off the balcony. Read at your own risk please. I will not be responsible for any emotions felt as this is just the mood of the story at current. Stephen had stayed the night only to make sure Anthony and Peter are alright. Other than that, back to the story.
