Captain America: Civil War Page #8

Easy.

Stark?

Did he give you anything on Rogers?

Nope. Told me to go to hell.

I'm going back to the compound instead,

but you can call me anytime.

I'll put you on hold.

I like to watch the line blink.

You remember that time we had to ride back

from Rockaway Beach

in the back of that freezer truck?

Was that the time we used our train money

to buy hot dogs?

You blew three bucks trying to win

that stuffed bear for a redhead.

What was her name, again?

Dolores. You called her Dot.

She's gotta be

a hundred years old right now.

So are we, pal.

He can't have been here

more than a few hours.

Long enough to wake them up.

You ready?

Yeah.

You seem a little defensive.

It's been a long day.

At ease, Soldier.

I'm not currently after you.

Then why are you here?

Could be your story's not so crazy.

Maybe.

Ross has no idea I'm here.

I'd like to keep it that way.

Otherwise, I gotta arrest myself.

Well, that sounds like a lot of paperwork.

It's good to see you, Tony.

You too, Cap.

Hey, Manchurian Candidate,

you're killing me.

There's a truce here. You can drop...

I got heat signatures.

How many?

Uh, one.

If it's any comfort,

they died in their sleep.

Did you really think I wanted more of you?

What the hell?

I'm grateful to them, though.

They brought you here.

Please, Captain.

The Soviets built

this chamber to withstand

the launch blast of UR-100 rockets.

I'm betting I could beat that.

Oh, I'm sure you could, Mr Stark.

Given time.

But then you'd never know why you came.

You killed innocent people in Vienna

just to bring us here?

I've thought about

nothing else for over a year.

I studied you.

I followed you.

But now that you're standing here...

I just realised...

there's a bit of green

in the blue of your eyes.

How nice to find a flaw.

You're Sokovian.

Is that what this is about?

Sokovia was a failed state

long before you blew it to hell.

No.

I'm here because I made a promise.

You lost someone?

I lost everyone.

And so will you.

An empire toppled

by its enemies can rise again.

But one which crumbles from within?

That's dead.

Forever.

I know that road.

What is this?

Help my wife.

Please. Help.

Sergeant Barnes?

Howard!

Howard!

No, Tony.

Did you know?

I didn't know it was him.

Don't bullshit me, Rogers. Did you know?

Yes.

Get out of here!

It wasn't him, Tony.

HYDRA had control of his mind!

Move!

It wasn't him!

Left bootjet failing.

Flight systems compromised.

Ah, crap.

He's not gonna stop. Go.

Come on, come on.

Targeting system's knackered, boss.

I'm eyeballing it.

Do you even remember them?

I remember all of them.

This isn't gonna change what happened.

I don't care.

He killed my mom.

You should have seen his little face.

Just try, okay?

I'm going to bed.

I love you.

I almost killed the wrong man.

Hardly an innocent one.

This is all you wanted?

To see them rip each other apart.

My father lived outside the city.

I thought we would be safe there.

My son was excited.

He could see the Iron Man

from the car window.

I told my wife, "Don't worry.

"They're fighting in the city.

We're miles from harm."

When the dust cleared...

and the screaming stopped...

it took me two days

until I found their bodies.

My father...

still holding my wife and son in his arms.

And the Avengers?

They went home.

I knew I couldn't kill them.

More powerful men than me have tried.

But, if I could get them

to kill each other...

I'm sorry about your father.

He seemed a good man.

With a dutiful son.

Vengeance has consumed you.

It's consuming them.

I am done letting it consume me.

Justice will come soon enough.

Tell that to the dead.

The living are not done with you, yet.

You can't beat him hand-to-hand.

Analyse his fight pattern.

Scanning.

Countermeasures ready.

Let's kick his ass.

He's my friend.

So was I.

Stay down. Final warning.

I could do this all day.

That shield doesn't belong to you.

You don't deserve it.

My father made that shield!

Meals at 8 and 5.

Toilet privileges twice a day.

Raise your voice, zap.

Touch the glass, zap.

You step out of line, you deal with me.

Please, step out of line, hmm?

So how does it feel?

To spend all that time, all that effort...

to see it fail so spectacularly?

Did it?

- It's just the first pass.

- Yeah.

Give me some feedback,

anything you think of.

Shock absorption, lateral movement.

Cup holder?

You may wanna think about

some AC down in...

Ow.

Let's go. I'll give you a hand.

No. Don't help me.

Ah.

138 combat missions.

That's how many I've flown, Tony.

Every one of them

could've been my last, but I flew them.

Because the fight needed to be fought.

It's the same with these Accords.

I signed because it was

the right thing to do.

And yeah, this sucks. This is, uh...

This is a bad beat.

But it hasn't changed my mind.

I don't think.

- You okay?

- Oh, yeah.

Are you Tony Stank?

Yes, this is Tony Stank.

You're in the right place.

Thank you for that!

Never dropping that, by the way.

"Table for one, Mr Stank.

"Please, by the bathroom."

Tony...

I'm glad you're back at the compound.

I don't like the idea of you

rattling around a mansion by yourself.

We all need family.

The Avengers are yours.

Maybe more so than mine.

I've been on my own since I was 18.

I never really fit in anywhere,

even in the Army.

My faith's in people, I guess.

Individuals.

And I'm happy to say that,

for the most part...

they haven't let me down.

Which is why I can't let them down either.

Locks can be replaced,

but maybe they shouldn't.

I know I hurt you, Tony.

I guess I thought by not telling you

about your parents...

I was sparing you...

but I can see now that

I was really sparing myself.

And I'm sorry.

Hopefully one day you can understand.

I wish we agreed on the Accords.

I really do.

I know you're doing what you believe in,

and that's all any of us can do.

That's all any of us should.

Priority call from Secretary Ross.

There's been a breach at the Raft prison.

Yeah, put him through.

Tony, we have a problem.

- Uh, please hold.

- No, don't.

So no matter what...

I promise you...

if you need us...

if you need me...

I'll be there.

You sure about this?

I can't trust my own mind.

So, until they figure out

how to get this stuff out of my head...

I think going back under

is the best thing.

For everybody.

Thank you for this.

Your friend and my father...

they were both victims.

If I can help one of them find peace...

You know, if they find out he's here...

they'll come for him.

Let them try.

Hey, shady baby

I'm hot like the prodigal son

Pick a petal

Eenie, meenie, miney, moe

And flower

You're the chosen one

Well, your left hand's free

And your right's in a grip

With another left hand

Watch his right hand slip

Towards his gun

Oh, no

I tackle, we tussle

Oh, my days, we're rolling

My right hand's gripped on his

Colt Single Action Army

Oh, no

Well, your left hand's free
