Civil War Part 4

Tony Stark, Quicksilver, and Bruce Banner sat on one couch in a small relax room at the Avengers Headquarters. On a couch opposite them sat Captain America, Peter, and Daredevil. Sitting in a chair between the two sides was Hunter, who had yet to decide what side he would be on.

"So, we have gathered our top two heroes on our side, well.. our most persuasive. To try and convince The Patriot here to join the other side. So, since you're the losing side Cap, I'll let you choose someone to talk to him first." Tony said. Cap looked over at Daredevil and motioned for him to talk. Peter nudged Daredevil and Daredevil cleared his throat. Cap, Peter, Tony, Quicksilver, and Bruce got up and left the room as Daredevil looked straight forward.

"Well first off, I know that you're worried about making the wrong decision."

"I swear to God if you bring up your senses." Hunter said laughing.

"How did you know?"

"Spidey and I chit chat here and there."

"More like chit chat all the time. You two know each other personally. I can sense it." Daredevil said with a smirk.

"You son of a bitch." Hunter said smiling. "So horny, talk. Get it? You have horns."

"Very funny. Anything else you want to say?"

"Is your bra size double d's? Get it? Dare. Devil. DD? Okay, I'm done."

"You wear a mask, just like me, Spidey, and Cap. You have an identity to protect. A life to keep hidden. Maybe you don't care about your alter ego, but I know that you care about your family and friends. You can't just put them in that sort of danger. It's immoral. That's really all I have to say. Don't make the wrong choice. I'll be able to sense it." Daredevil smirked once more before walking out of the room.

"You sly son of a bitch." Hunter said as Bruce walked in and sat on the couch. "It's Mr. Angry!" Hunter said smiling at Bruce.

"Daredevil told us that you were a jokester. Anyway, you know who I am. You know what happens to me. I chose to give myself up because if the Hulk were to ever… kill, God forbid, the authorities would know exactly who did it and put him in custody, meaning me. I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing this for the safety of the country. You should do the same."

"Wanna know something Brucie?" Hunter asked smirking.

"What?" Bruce sighed.

"I have some of him in me."

"What?" Bruce asked in a worried tone. "Did you repeat my experiments?"

"Do I look smart enough to repeat your gamma experiments? I am the experiment." Hunter said laughing.

"What do you mean?" Bruce asked, getting paranoid.

"As a child, I was experimented on, to recreate the perfect soldier. So my brilliant-that's sarcasm-brilliant father decided this: 'Why don't we take the things we know about the serum in Captain America, and the giant green rage monster, and mix it?' and boom, I am him."

"You're Hank Gilmore's son." Bruce whispered in realization.

"You know my dad?"

"I knew him as my partner, at one point. He was the first person to try and replicate the super soldier experiments after me, and he was also the only person to ever actually succeed in getting it to work. You're Hunter Hill!"

"I am The Patriot, Mr. Banner. To your eyes at least."

"Well, if you're smart, you'll tell the world who you are, especially since you have a part of The Hulk within you. Why does it matter if I know if you choose to tell?"

"What if I don't choose to tell?" Hunter said, leaning forward now.

"If you have The Hulk within you, you owe it to the world to tell. That's all I'm saying." Bruce stood up from his seat and walked out of the room. Peter walked in and stared at Hunter but he didn't sit or do anything else. All he said was, "Hunter, you know what you have to do. You're not only endangering your family, but my family as well. Everyone that you know will be in danger and then some. Don't tell your secret. It's all you have right now." Peter then turned around and walked out again. Next was Quicksilver.

"That was quick. I should know, I'm the fasting thing on this planet." he said with a laugh. Before Hunter's eyes Quicksilver disappeared and reappeared on a couch. "See?"

"No, and I kinda feel like Daredevil cause of that." Hunter said laughing. Quicksilver laughed to and looked at Hunter.

"Harsh kid. I like your style. Now, I don't have some big speech planned on why you should join our side, but all I know is this, people want to know who is protecting them. They need to know it is someone they can trust. Like Tony. Sure, he's a party maniac, but he hasn't killed anyone. Well, killed anyone innocent, at least. People get scared seeing someone in a mask. Think of it when a child sees you, in that mask. They are gonna be frightened. They are gonna think you might be the bad guy. If you let the world know who you are, you don't scare people. They know it is someone trustworthy under there. Someone responsible, brave, tough, whatever. Just think about it."

"You don't have a big speech planned?" Hunter asked smirking.

"Maybe I did." Quicksilver said smiling as he disappeared and the door flew open. Everyone walked back in and sat on their separate sides.

"So kid, what's the choice?" Tony asked. Hunter looked back and forth at Cap and Tony multiple times. He locked eyes with Peter and then with Bruce. Daredevil only stared forward, so there was no eye locking opportunity.

"Alright, I have made my choice." Hunter said, standing up.

"Well?" Cap said, leaning forward in his seat due to the anticipation. Hunter looked Cap dead in the eye. He took off his mask and dropped it on the ground, before walking out.
