"Do you think it could be him Sam?" Tony asked as he looked at the screen that held the footage from the cell that they had placed the suggested Captain America in. Falcon had helped Tony the best he could getting him in the cell and then had wanted to see what Tony had thought about the whole situation.

"It sure as hell looks like him." Sam said.

"Sounds like him too."

"Tony, voices can be faked." Sam said as he sat down in a chair directly across from Tony's desk. "So when are you telling her?"

"Tell her what?" Tony asked as if he had no idea what Falcon was actually talking about. Sam had used two unknowns in his sentence, mainly to see which one Tony would choose to ignore and he sure didn't disappoint.

"How about that her father is down in the holding cells." Sam said as he leaned back in the chair but before Tony even had a chance to respond, the office door flew open and slammed closed. Sam turned around and saw an angry Natasha standing there with her arms crossed. He stood to his feet and would have exited the room if the Former KGB agent hadn't given him a glare that shot daggers. So he simply retook his seat and waited to see what had angered Natasha.

"Anthony," she began, "You have a problem."

Sam notied how the angry Russian had said the problem was Tony's and not theirs. So this could only have meant one thing, that Tony had done something and it had backfired.

"Danvers called." She continued but was still talking to Tony's back, "James showed up at Central Park." Tony shifted his weight from one foot to the other and some of his attention to what Natasha was talking about. He had a feeling that he all ready knew where she was going with this but he waited for her to continue before he made his assumptions. "Ray was with him Anthony."

Sam stood once more and began to move to the door and was almost home free when Natasha stopped him yet again.

"Sam tell Anthony that he needs to speak to his daughter."

"Natasha, this really sounds more like a family affair." Sam said trying to get himself out of the middle of this. He may have known Ray from when she wa little but he was jsut a "friend of the family" and felt that this matter had nothing to do with him but apparently Natasha didn't feel that way.

"Natasha, need I remind you that she is not my daughter." Tony said turning around and facing Natasha and Sam for the first time.

"No? Then I want to talk to the man who raised Ray Rodgers into the woman that is about to figure out that that man is the one who hasn't told her a thing about this supposed return of her father."

"She won't figure it out, Natasha." Tony said and before anything else could be said an agent, who had only worked at SHEILD for a few weeks, stormed into the office.

"Director Stark!" The agent said and when Tony looked at the man he continued, "there are two unidentified signitures in the control room.

"She's not going to figure it out huh?" Natasha asked and Sam could have sworn that he heard the Black Widow laugh under her breath, "You underestimate her, Anthony." She turned to the agent and asked, "Any systems being effected? Has Anyone been hurt?"

"No ma'am. Not as of yet."

"Thankyou for the report, Agent. I will personally tend to this matter. Dismissed." Tony replied to the agent as he tirned his com-link on and said, "Amelia go to the control room and tell Ray to get her nose out of stuff that she does not understand!"

"Tony?" Amelia said not sure what was being asked of her but tony did not allow for her to finish her sentence as he cut her off.

"Just get it done!" He then stormed passed both Falcon and Black Widow and slammed the office door behind him, leaving the two former team mates and friends to the silence that quickly filled the room.

"You all right?" Sam asked finally breaking the silence.

"Da." She replied, "But Ray won't be."

"You want me to check on her."

"I wouldn't ask if I didn't think she'd listen." Natasha said knowing that there were two people in this world that Ray would talk to if she didn't think she would talk to Tony. One was Bucky, who was like a brother to Ray and the other was Sam. He was a friend that Ray could count on and knowing this, Natasha took advantage of it.

"I can try Natasha but you know I will but she is as stubborn as Steve and Tony put together. Not to mention how feisty her mother was."

"I know Sam but someone has to try to get through to her." Natasha looked at the screen and saw the man was now laying down on the bed. She wanted to believe that the man in the cell was her friend that she had fought alongside so many years ago but that man had died hadn't he?

"Natasha, I don't think its him. His fighting is good but that man is too strong and something seems off about him."

Natasha nodded her head and said, "Maybe but it doesn't make it any easier."

"I know. I'll go to Ray's loft and wait for her there. I'll talk to her and get her to talk to Tony."

"She knows what she needs to do Sam but like you said, she is stubbon. All you can do is try."

"I will."

"Thank you Sam. Maybe she will listen to you."

"Lets hopes so." Sam said as he politly said his goodbyes to Natasha and was finally allowed to the leave Tony Stark's SHEILD office.
