A/N Hi, I hope everyone is safe and healthy, and I hope this will entertain you. Disclaimer: I own nothing of Marvel and Inuyasha, none of it.

Chapter 14

The team was all on the Quinjet, Kagome was busy healing Clint. Steve was nearby, making sure she didn't overdo it.

"Steve, you don't need to hover," Kagome said as she healed Clint's wound.

"Yes, I know, but you like to overdo it, especially when it comes to healing people," he said, eyeballing her as she healed Clint. Clint was looking between the couple, feeling a bit awkward in his position.

"You have been talking to Sesshomaru again?" Kagome sighed, as she finished healing Clint.

"Yes, " he sighed. "He told me that your bad habit is overdoing it on healing," he stated firmly, eyes shining with concern.

"Steve, I am fine, and know my limits," she whispered yelled at him, turning to face him. "I am not 15 years old anymore, and Sesshomaru will do well to remember that," she stated simply, and nicely.

"I know,'' Steve stated as she glared at him, meeting him nose to nose. "Still, I worry about you," he said softly, cupping her cheek. "You do it too," he smiled at her rubbing her cheek gently with his thumb. She huffed and glared at him definitely, they had a staredown. Then she sighed looking away and then shook her head, Steve dropping his hand from her cheek.

"Yeah," she sighed, smiling up to him. "I still get annoyed when you hover and make it sound like I need to be babysat," she started walking towards Thor. Steve watched after her sighing, knowing she was right.

"I hate it when mom and dad fight," Clint jokes, Steve cutting him an annoyed look. Clint shrugged his shoulders, a wide smile on his face.

"Hey, the lullaby worked better than ever," Natasha smiled beside Bruce as he took off his earbuds.

"Just wasn't expecting the Code Green," he sighed in dread, and defeat.

" If you hadn't been there, there would've been double the casualties. My best friend would've been a treasured memory," Natasha smiled kindly to him.

"You know, sometimes exactly what I want to hear isn't exactly what I want to hear," Bruce sighed in defeat and dread.

"How long before you trust me?" Natasha wondered curiously, smiling flirtatiously.

"It's not you, I don't trust," Bruce whispered to her.

"Thor, report on the Hulk?" Natasha called to him as he spoke to Kagome.

"The gates of Hell are filled with the screams of his victims," Thor cheered, clapping his hands. Bruce sighed in defeat, and Kagome bowed her head in defeat. Then smacked him upside the head, causing him to flinch, then noticed their demeanor. "Uh, but, not the screams of the dead, of course. No no, uh...wounded screams, mainly whimpering, a great deal of complaining and tales of sprained deltoids and, and uh... and gout," he tried to retract his earlier comment.

"Thor, be a dear and stop digging that hole, or you will reach the core," Kagome sighed.

" Hey Banner, Dr. Cho's on her way in from Seoul, is it okay if she sets up in your lab? " Tony called over his shoulder in the driver seat.

"Uh, yeah, she knows her way around," Bruce said in thought, as Tony got up and went to Kagome.

"Thanks," he called. " Tell her to prep everything, Barton's gonna need the full treatment," Tony called to the machine.

" Very good sir," JARVIS responded.

" JARVIS, take the wheel," Tony called to him.

"Yes, sir. Approach vector is locked," JARVIS called to them.

"You alright?" he asked Kagome. Kagome looked confused by the concerned and worried look on his face.

"Yes, she nodded in agreement to his concerns. He nodded and smiled, hugging her, and walked over to his Son-in-law and thor. "It feels good, yeah? I mean, you've been after this thing since SHIELD collapsed. Not that I haven't enjoyed our little raiding parties, but," he smiled watching the duo watch the scepter.

"No, but this, this brings it to a close," Thor nodded in denial.

"As soon as we find out what else this has been used for. I don't just mean weapons. Since when is Strucker capable of human enhancement?" Steve inquired about the room.

"Banner and I'll give it the once before it goes back to Asgard. Is that cool with you?" Tony said stoically, then looked and gestured to Thor. who nodded in agreement with his statement." I mean, just a few days until the farewell party. You're staying right?" Tony inquired of Thor, heading back towards the cockpit.

" Yes, yes, of course. A victory should be honored with revels," hor said excitedly, clapping his hand together, then rubbing his palms together.

" Yeah. Who doesn't love revels? Captain?" Tony cheered then looked to the said super-soldier.

" Hopefully this puts an end to the Chitauri and HYDRA, so. Yes, revels," Steve smiled a big smile going over to Kagome and pulled her into his arms. "Right? Mrs. Captain America," he cooed and brought his face down to kiss her pensive look. She smiled a soft smile, as he used her joking nickname against her. Shortly after they were married, the newspapers blew up. "The New Mrs. America", is one of the more popular headline titles.

"Yes, yes, reveals," she laughed softly, as she nuzzled beneath his chin. Something she picked up from spending 500 years with canine youkai.

Soon the Quinjet landed, and Clint was rushed off the jet by Dr. Cho, though Clint has mostly been healed, and not in any real danger. Kagome knew the doctor just wanted to show off her machine to her father, and gloat. Kagome rolled her eyes as she got off the ship with Steve, Hill meeting them.

" What's the word on Strucker?" Kagome asked curiously, taking the file and reading it closely.

"NATO's got him," she notified the super couple.

"The two enhanced?" Steve inquired as Kagome handed him the file.

"Wanda and Pietro Maximoff. Twins. Orphaned at ten when a shell collapsed their apartment building. Sokovia had a rough history. It's nowhere special but it's on the way to everywhere special," She notified them as they walked towards the elevator.

"Poor guys," Kagome sighed sympathetically for the pair.

"Their abilities?" Steve inquired, handing the file back to Hill.

"He's got increased metabolism and improved thermal homeostasis. Her thing is neural electric interfacing, telekinesis, mental manipulation," Hill stated factually to them Steve looked at her completely confused by her words.

"He's fast and she's weird, dear," Kagome clarified, hitting the elevator button.

"Well, they're going to show up again," Stev sighed, waiting beside her.

" Agreed," Hill nods in agreement to his statement. "File says they volunteered for Strucker's experiments. It's nuts," Hill said in thought and wonder, reading the file over again.

"Right! What kind of monster would let a German scientist experiment on them to protect their country?" Steve asked sarcastically, as they entered the elevator, Hill on the other side.

"We're not at war, Captain," Hill rolled her eyes at his words, and compared himself to the two enhanced.

"They are," Kagome simply stated as the doors were shut. "I don't like this," she sighed leaning on the elevator wall.

"I know, I don't like it either," Steve sighed beside her.

"Steve, if you want to find them quickly, we can always use them," she trailed off.

"No kagome, we are not asking Sesshomaru to use his Shadow Spies,'' Steve sighed in aggravation.

"Why not? I trained that group personally, " she snapped back at him. "Why don't you ever want to ask Sesshomaru for help?" she pleaded with him, as they reached the level of their suite.

"It's nothing," he sighed entering the bedroom.

"Oh no, it's nothing," she snapped entering the bedroom behind him. "This is not the first time you have blatantly refused Sesshomaru's help," she snapped at him. "Finding your friend, the previous attacks on HYDRA bases, and now to find those enhanced twins, who may be scared and vengeful," she snapped. "Steve, talk to me," she begged, bringing his turned face to face hers.

"The reason I don't want his help?" he asked aggravated and venomously. "Remember when SHIELD went down?" he asked curiously.

"Yeah, he called me in," she said in thought. "Is this about that? You said you understood why I needed to go," she said in shock.

"I understand you, but him, his actions, he could have helped us stop it, but he pulled everyone in," he growled out.

"He did it to protect our people," she said confused.

"I am just angry, because not only then, but in New York, he didn't send any help. He only cares if it proteins to him and youkai," he growled out. Then sat on the bed bowing his head. "Kagome, I asked him to help me find Buck," he whispered. Kagome looked at him, shocked by his words. "He told me to let the past die, and not be distracted," he said solemnly. Kagome walked over and sat down beside him.

"Why? Why didn't you tell me about all this?" she wondered. "I thought you two were getting along," she sighed, taking his hand into hers. "Like on the Quinjet, when you said he warned you about me overdoing it on healing," she said softly.

"Sure, when it pertains to you, he and I can agree," he sighed, grasping her hand tighter. "But everything else, we are fire and ice," he sighed.

"Steve, Sesshomaru is just..." she sighed looking down. "We have been around for 500 years, he has seen how humans treat our kind," she explained. "I know what you mean, we should help more, but he is a very stubborn man. As they say, you can't teach an old dog new tricks," she joked, causing a small smile to appear on Steve's face. "Look, the party is in a few days, so let's relax, and have the date night," she smiled warmly, cupping his cheek and pulling it towards her face. "Now, get dressed for our date, have a good time, forget about my Inu adoptive brother," she whispered.

"Yeah, yeah, you're right," he sighed, kissing her cheek. "You know that this whole HYDRA and Chitari has been put to bed. Do you think we should try to expand our family?" he inquired curiously. Kagome looked at him shocked but smiled softly.

"Yeah," she smiled brightly. "You know more than anyone, that the answer was going to be yes," she grinned brightly at the prospect. "We can start tonight," she beamed, kissing him. "For now, let's go out on the town," she smiled getting up off the bed. He chuckled and nodded watching her enter their walk-in closet.

Kagome walked out in a red one-shoulder cocktail dress. She then grabbed a pair of black strappy heels and a set of silver bangles. She got dressed, deciding to brush her hair over one shoulder, placing a pair of tiered diamond silver earrings. She had on simple, to very little makeup on her face. It has been a few days since their date night, and the couple was getting ready for the Victory Party.

Steve awaited her by the door, and was in awe of her appearance, never getting over how beautiful she was.

"Ready to reveal, Lady Rodgers," he smiled, offering his arm to her.

"Of course, Lord Rodgers," she teased using his title in the Western Lands.

They began to mingle at the party. Kagome smiled while cheering for Steve in the pool game against Sam.

"Hey koi, I am going to see what trouble my dad is getting into," she smiled, kissing his cheek. Steve smiled watching after her, walking away. Then he saw Sams look at him, with a raised eyebrow.

"What?" Steve asked, smiling at him.

"You my friend, are whipped," he teased him. Steve merely rolled his eyes at his friend, taking another shot at the cue ball.

"Hey dad," Kagome beamed, finding her dad with Thor and Rhody. She leaned up and kissed his cheek gently, even in heels, she was shorter than her dad.

"Hey sweetie," he smiled, hugging her tightly. Rhody continues his story t the trio.

"Well, you know, the suit can take the weight, right? So I take the tank, fly it right up to the General's palace, drop it at his feet, I'm like, "Boom! Are you looking for this?" Rhody finished his story grinning widely. Kagome, Thor, and Tony looked at him blankly, and waited for more." Boom! Are you looking..." Why do I even talk to you guys? Everywhere else that story kills," he said in shock and aggravated they did not get the punch line.

"That's the whole story?" Thor asked, confused.

"Yeah, it's a War Machine story," Rhody said in a stressed tone. Kagome sipped her sparkling drink. She was not much of an alcoholic drinker to begin with, even if in America she was legal to drink. As well there might be a small chance she may be pregnant.

" Well, it's very good then. It's impressive," he laughed merrily. Kagome knew it was a pity, laughing, and sharing a look with her father.

"Quality save. So, no Pepper? She's not coming?" Rhody asked awkwardly, changing the subject.

" No," Tony sighed as Hill came up to them.

" Hey, what about Jane? Where are the ladies, gentlemen?" Hil teased them, sharing a look with Kagome. Who was giggling quietly?

"Well, Miss Potts has a company to run," Tony supplied to the group. "What about my grandson?" he asked, noticing Kagome's giggling form.

"Yes, I'm not even sure what country Jane's in. Her work on the convergence has made her the world's foremost astronomer," Thor bragged about his girlfriend.

"Shippo is in Madagascar hunting down some bug demon hive," she sighed. "He is excited, he is leading the team, and having the time of his life," she smirked. "Also congrats to Jane," she beamed up to Thor.

"And the company that Pepper runs is the largest tech conglomerate on earth. It's pretty exciting," Tony stated, beginning to brag about Pepper. Kagome rolled her eyes at his silly competition with Thor.

" There's even talk of Jane getting a... um, uh... Nobel prize," Thor countered him. Kagome was shaking her head at their childish antics.

"Yeah, they must be busy because they'd hate missing you guys get together," she smirked mockingly of the male pair.

" Testosterone!" Kagome faked coughing. "Oh, excuse me," she said hurriedly." Now I think I should find Steve," she smiled, walking away to find her husband. She found him on the second landing with Sam, talking about Bucky.

"There is the gorgeous Mrs. Rogers," Sam teased her. She rolled her eyes at his antics and hugged him. Then went to Steve and pulled him down for a passionate kiss.

"How was speaking to your father?" Steve asked after breaking the kiss, making Sam shake his head at their antics. One minute they could be bickering like tomorrow, then they're all lovey-dovey.

"Thor and he were having a who has the better girlfriend contest," she scoffed.

"Well, why didn't you come to get me?" Steve asked, appalled. Kagome and Sam looked at him confused. "I would have won since I have the best wife ever," Steve grinned widely down to her. Kagome burst out laughing at his antics, Sam shaking his head at his friend. She went to drink her drink and found it empty, Steve noticed too.

"Come on, I will get you a drink," Steve grinned, guiding her to the bar. There they found Thor, pouring himself a drink.

" I gotta have some of that!" an elderly man cheered, as Kagome ordered some sparkling grape juice.

"Oh, no, no, no. See this, this was aged for a thousand years, in the barrels built from the wreck of Grunhel's fleet, it was not meant for mortal men," Thor chuckled, pouring Steve a glass. Kagome shook her head at her husband, drinking this extremely strong drink.

"Neither was Omaha Beach, blondie. Stop trying to scare us. Come on," another elder man cheered him on.

"Alright," Thor smiled, shrugging and pouring some of his glass into his. Kagome made a noise of protest, but it was too late. After the man was finished, he was singing and needed to be carried out. Kagome sighed in defeat at the men's antics, sipping her drink. Then she noticed the flirting and chat between Bruce and Natasha. She smirked, nudging Steve's arm gesturing to the pair. He noticed as well and approached Bruce as Natasha walked away.

" It's nice," Steve sighed, as Kagome began to fall close behind him.

" What, what, what is?" Bruce asked in shock and confusion.

"You and Romanoff," Kagome smiled leaning on the bar beside him.

" No, we haven't. That wasn't," Bruce stuttered out in shock.

" It's okay. Nobody's breaking any by-laws. It's just, she's not the most... open person in the world. But with you she seems very relaxed," Steve explained, sharing a smile with Kagome

"No, Natasha, she... she likes to flirt," Bruce denied.

" I've seen her flirt, up close," Kagome giggled, remembering the few missions Natasha and her work on before New York. " This ain't that," Kagome smiled brightly.

"Look, as maybe the world's leading authority on "waiting too long;" don't. You both deserve a win," Seve stated. "I took my second chance, and didn't wait, and not trade him for anything. Even to have my first one back," he grinned. Kagome grinned widely, knowing he was referencing the heartache she went through with Inuyasha. She leaned over and kissed him.

"Just take the plunge," she advised, as they began walking away.

"Wait, what do you mean, "up close"?" he called after them.

The party soon came to an end, ad the Avengers were now all lounging around the living room together, having a good old time. Kagome was laying her head against Steve's shoulder.

"But, it's a trick!" Clint called merrily, gesturing to Thor's hammer on the table.

"Oh, no. It's much more than that," Thor defended, chuckling. Kagome snuggled close to Steve's chest, as he held her there with his arm wrapped around her.

"Uh, "Whosoever be worthy shall have the power!" Whatever man! It's a trick," Clint began in a mock deep voice, then cracked up towards the end.

" Well please, be my guest," Thor gestured to the Mjounar sitting innocently on the table.

"Come on," Tony laughed at him, not believing him at all.

" Really?" Clint asked excitedly and brightly.

"Yeah!" Thor nodded in agreement, smirking widely.

"Oh this is gonna be beautiful," Kagome giggled, snuggling close to Steve.

"Clint, you've had a tough week, we won't hold it against you if you can't get it up.," Tony teased him, downing his drink.

"You know I've seen this before, right? " Clint teased, grabbing the hammer then trying to lift it, and failing at it. "I still don't know how you do it," he laughed, letting it go looking at Thor, who was chuckling.

"Smell the silent judgment?" Tony teased snickering a little bit, looking at Clint, as he returned to his seat.

"Please, Stark, by all means," Clint smirked, gesturing to the hammer. Tony raised an eyebrow at his challenge. He got up from his seat with a confident smirk on his face.

"Oh, here we go," Natasha teased looking over to Kagome and Hill. the girls giggled in agreement to her eye roll.

"Make a bet?" Hill asked, smirking. "Next girls night, the winner picks the restaurant?" she asked curiously, sipping her wine.

"Why make a bet? When we already knew the outcome, ``Kagome giggled lightly, as Rhode poured her another glass of sparkling Grape Juice.

"True to that," Natasha raised her beer bottle, sipping it.

"Uh-oh," Rhode cheered brightly, cackling at what was to come.

"Never one to shrink from an honest challenge," Tony laughed brightly about grabbing the hammer. "A trait that is genetic," he smirked looking to kagome. "Something to look forward to," he joked, with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"Really dad?" Kagome groaned in embarrassment and annoyance.

"Also was it not you who did not wish to discuss becoming a grandfather?" Steve asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Again," Clint called out, chuckling.

"Ok, I am excited about having mini Stark's running around here," Tony smirked, imagining a little boy or girl in the lab with him, working together on projects. "And my grandson, Shippo is a delight and adopted. It's completely different,'' he scoffed, looking at Clint.

"Don't you mean little Rodgers?" Steve asked with a raised eyebrow.

"You are married to my daughter, in extension a Stark, so little Stark's," Tony smirked widely.

"Guys," kagome groaned in frustration. "Firstly, I am happy you and Shippo get along so well," she smiled at her father. "Second, I am not even pregnant yet, and you two are arguing over if the child is a Stark or a Rodger?" she asked, looking between her husband and father. "You two, the baby will be Stark and Rodger, along with Higurashi, and Taisho," she stated eyeballing the pair. Who looked down slightly ashamed. "Thirdly, Dad, you're stalling," she teased, morphing her face into a teasing smirk.

"Yeah, get after it," Clint chuckled, flinging his hand towards the hammer, falling back into his chair. Tony, now grabbed the handle of the Hammer, and began pulling, trying to lift it.

"It's physics," Tony explained to them to get in a certain position to lift the hammer.

"Physics!" Bruce cheered, laughing merrily.

" Right, so, if I lift it, I...I then rule Asgard?" Tony asked, trying to lift the hammer, growing in frustration, and straining.

" Yes, of course," Thor smiled at him.

" I will be reinstituting Prima Nocta. Kagome crowned princess," Tony grinned widely. He then tried to pull on it harder and planted his foot on the table to try and lift it. "I'll be right back," He said, holding up a finger, and leaving the room.

"Where do you think he is going?" Steve asked curiously.

"I am scared to ask," Kagome said as the couple looked over the back part of the couch. Then Tony came back in with an iron man glove in his hand. He tries to lift the hammer again using it.

"Strike two," Steve laughed quietly, rubbing circles on Kagome's shoulder. Then Tony got Rhode to use his own War Machine arm, and together they tried to lift it.

" Are you even pulling?"Rhode demanded, straining a bit.

"Are you on my team?" TOny asked through gritted teeth.

" Just represent! Pull!" Rhode demanded loudly, trying to lift the hammer.

"Alright, let's go!" Tony cheered trying to lift the hammer. This attempt soon fails as well.

"Strike three, you're out of here," Kagome cheered brightly, laughing with steve. Tony rolled his eyes at her antics but smiling brightly at seeing her beaming smile and laughter. Bruce then tried and yelled out dramatically. Kagome smiled, sipping her sparkling drink.

"My turn," steve smiled, getting up.

"Come on baby, you got this," Kagome cheered for him, as he got ready to take his turn.

" Let's go, Steve, no pressure," Tony cheered, cackling, clapping his hands.

" Come on, Cap," Rhode cheered, clapping his hands together. He tried lifting the hammer but failed. He laughed, smiling brightly shrugging his shoulders.

" Nothing," Thor laughed, as Steve went back to his seat. Steve bent down and kissed kagome softly on her lips.

"Nice try koi," she smiled as he returned to his seat, wrapping his arms around her.

" Widow?" Bruce asked curiously.

"Oh, no-no. That's not a question I need answering," Natasha shook her head, sitting up grinning widely. "Kags?" she asked curiously looking over to kagome.

"Nah, I have everything I need," she smiled, snuggling closer to Steve's side.

" All deference to the man who wouldn't be king, but it's rigged," Tony called in disappointment and denial.

" You bet your ass," Clint called, laughing merrily.

"Steve, he said a bad language word," Hill called, pointing at Clint as if she was a child from grade school telling a teacher.

"Did you tell everyone about that?" Steve demanded a touch annoyed, looking at Stark, getting up to get himself more to drink.

"The handle's imprinted, right? Like a security code. "Whosoever is carrying Thor's fingerprints" is, I think, the literal translation?" Tony tried to explain to them scientifically. Kagome smiled softly at her dad, knowing he never was good at accepting supernatural or magic as the answer to anything.

"Yes, well that's, uh, that's a very, very interesting theory. I have a simpler one," Thor smiled getting up. He picked up Mjolnir and flipped it in the air as if it were nothing. "You're all not worthy," he smirked looking around the room. Everyone cried and yelled out in disagreement with his claims. Suddenly a high pitch screeching noise broke out through the room, everyone covering their ears in pain. When it finally ended they all looked at each other, then the source of the sound. It was a robot that resembled a lung yard version of the Iron Legion.

"Worthy," it stated as it stumbled into the room more. "No, how could you be worthy? You're all killers," it stated in a deep tone staring each of them down.

" Stark," Steve called towards his father-in-law, inching to stand in front of Kagome protectively. But she stepped forward, giving him a pointed look.

" JARVIS," Tony called out to his AI in slight alarm.

"I'm sorry, I was asleep, or was it a dream?" The robot asked in confusion.

"Reboot, Legionnaire OS, we got a buggy suit," Tony called, tapping a device in his hand, while Kagome eyeballed the robot in front of her.

"There was a terrible noise, and I was tangled in... in... strings. I had to kill the other guy. He was a good guy.," the robot continued to ramble, his auto cutting in out at parts.

"You killed someone?" Steve asked stoically, a hard edge in his tone.

"Tell us, who did you kill?" Kagome asked in a gentle tone, though her instincts were screaming, danger.

"Wouldn't have been my first call. But, down in the real world we're faced with ugly choices," he stated stoically, looking didn't to the ground and then back up to the others in the room.

"Who sent you?" Thor demanded, starting to shift into a defensive position.

"I see a suit of armor around the world," Tony's voice came through the robot's speakers. Kagome immediately cut a dirty look towards her father, as his face became pale, realization dawning on his face.

" Ultron!" Bruce called out in shock and horror.
