We're still searching Bruce.
But you don't want to be found, do you?
You're thinking we'll forget about you over time, that you will just be someone no one remembers.
But I will always remember you, will always miss you, will always want you back.
Please Bruce.
I don't, I really don't understand why you think hiding is the best option. If only you could see what a mess we are without you.
I know you have never thought you were the most important member of the team, that you are a danger to us, a monster. But you need to, you need to know Bruce, that we have never thought that of you. That we have always, always trusted you. Please believe us.
I hope you are alive, and are safe.
Please don't be in that Quinjet when we go and investigate it. Starks nearly finished it, whatever he's making to get down there. I don't know really, some sort of advanced submarine, but you probably would, it would be something you could explain to me. I don't think many of us actually understand what he's doing, down in his lab.
But it seems to be working. We can hear him shouting in joy when it works, the yells of disappointment when it doesn't. He reckons in a couple days we can set out to begin the search.
So we're all getting ready for a new mission, all of us, new and original Avengers. A mission, for once with no enemies, no aliens, no HYDRA agents.
A mission which we hope will be quick, that we will discover an empty ship, one without you in it.
Please Bruce, do not be in that Quinjet when we get down there. I don't want to, I can't, we won't discover your body in there.
No. You escaped, right Bruce? You're off relaxing somewhere, not realising the worry you're putting us through. Not realsing what you are doing to us. But I wish you would realise, that you could just tell us you're alive.
Even just a message. We're broadcasting out these messages, so you can hear them. Starks 'borrowed' a load of transmitters from these big businesses, boosting our signal from the tower, sending out our messages on our own frequency, the one we know you use. Just please be listening to us Bruce. Please find a way to reply to us, just to say you're safe, that we don't need to worry about you. Of course we want you back, but the most important, the most vital thing to us now is the need to know you're alive.
You cannot think we will just forget about you Bruce. We are a team.
And a team needs all its members to be together. To not be worrying about each other. I hope you can reply to us Bruce, I don't care how, where you are, who you're with. Just one small message.
We'll keep this frequency open, always recording on it. I hope this is working, that you're getting these messages, and that one day, one day soon you will reply to us.
Please Bruce. I can't find you down there, drowned, dead.
I can't go to your funeral.
I can't say goodbye to you.
I know you have to be alive, I can't see the other guy letting you die.
He could never let you die. You told us before, 'you put a bullet in your mouth and the other guy would spit it back out.' I can't see him letting you die, letting you drown, or crash.
So you have to be alive, don't you? Right Bruce? You're alive, you must be alive, I mean, how can you be dead? You can't be dead. You can't be dead. You're not dead. You're alive Bruce, I know you must be alive.
Please be alive. Please come back to us, come back to me.
Please give us some sort of sign that you're alive. Something, anything.
We're not giving up on you Bruce.
We may not understand why you've done this, why you've run away. But we can, and will, listen to you.
Just please give us a chance Bruce. Give us a chance to speak to you, give me a chance to understand properly what you are going through.
You're not alone in whatever it is, we all have our own stories, terrible stories.
The things we hide, that we don't want anyone to know. I respect that, if there's something you don't want me to know, I respect that, and won't ask you to tell me. But you can't Bruce, you can't just shut yourself away from us. You can't just hide away. I hate to say this to you Bruce, but it's cowardly. Hiding away and ignoring us. I know you're not a coward Bruce. You're not a coward.
You're an Avenger. One of a group of superheroes who saved the world, multiple times.
You're the man I fell in love with.
A brave man.
Not a coward.
Not a man I thought would be hiding from me. Hiding from his friends.
You'd better have a good reason for doing this Bruce.
I don't understand why you have done this, I really don't Bruce.
If you could give us a message, show us you're listening, that you're okay. That you're safe, that we don't have to worry about you. But we are worrying, we will worry about you, we will miss you.
Oh, Bruce, please be listening. Please come home.
I miss you Bruce.
Why can't you understand this? I miss you. We all miss you. You don't turn your back on your team, you don't ignore your team.
A team won't just let one of their members disappear. You can't disappear. Mark my words Bruce Banner, we will find you, okay?
We are not just going to let you disappear.
We will never let that happen.
Never Bruce. Okay? You are never, none of us are ever disappearing, or being forgotten.
We're a team, and we won't let that happen. Right Bruce?
Please Bruce. You can't just disappear.
