Avengers Civil War

by Zereq12

When a tragic incident during a battle occurs, the Superhuman Registration Act is passed, forcing the Avengers and all other superhumans to follow the government and work for a higher authority. Iron Man sees the need for accountability but Cap thinks the heroes should be trusted to make their own decisions, not follow someone else's orders. Who will win? Team Iron Man or Team Cap?

1. Chapter 1

Ch 1

We create our own demons. Who said that? Ah, doesn't matter. I guess it must've been said by a famous guy and since I'm a famous guy, now it's being said by two famous guys. This is the story about how I lost everything. And now just me. The Avengers, everyone, we've all broken up. I would love to say that this story ended with us talking it out and saving the world again but life doesn't work that way. Let's start from the beginning…

-T.S

The board and distracted guards at the SHIELD R&D Lab usually had uneventful shifts. Even though the building had a variety of highly-classified top secret tech and weapons, no one had actually tried to break in. That's why all the guards were completely stunned when a large armored truck rammed the building's doors open with a loud CLANG! The guards grabbed their guns and ran downstairs but the mercenaries inside the truck were quicker. They sprayed the place with machine gunfire, killing all the guards and they marched inside the building until they reached a lab behind a thick glass barrier. A mercenary put a grenade on it and it shattered the barrier and all of them parted to let in their leader, Crossbones.

"We have it." Crossbones said, grabbing an armored briefcase. "Move out!"

They had stolen a new weapon SHIELD had made. The antimatter bomb. It could release a huge explosion of energy which disintegrated targets on contact. Crossbones was planning to sell it to some contacts he knew would kill for it. Outside the lab, a mercenary was guarding the door until an Impact Web placed him against a wall. Spider-Man had swung in.

"Seven hostiles." Spidey said.

Behind the mercs, Cap jumped over their truck and knocked down another with a flip kick before knocking out another with a punch to his face.
"Now there's only five." Cap said. Two mercs opened fire when they saw Scarlet Witch descend until she knocked them down with red energy bolts. From the third floor, a merc with a machine gun fired but Quicksilver used his superspeed to get everyone out of the way. Falcon closed his wings and used them to block the bullets before launching a missile from his wings, taking out the section of the building where the shots had come from.

"We're down to two." Falcon said.

"I'm going in." Spider-Man said.

He swung through the hole that Falcon's missile made. The last two mercenaries inside the third-floor room fumbled for their guns but Spider-Man took them out with a few kicks. Crossbones and his few remaining men got back into their truck and rumbled off. Spider-Man went into the vault and saw that it was empty. Spider-Man swung out of the building and began the long truck chase.
