"Come on, capsicle, it'll be fun!"

"No, I don't want to go to the beach, Tony. You all can go ahead but I'm staying."

"Come on! It will be fun!" Tony practically begged, dragging Steve with him to the jet. Tony hasnt stopped bugging Steve for the past few days, asking him to go to the beach. "Fine." Steve finally gave in.

Ever since he got out of the ice, he's only been to the beach once. It was the same one he went to every summer before he went into the ice. He went, hoping it would happen. She would come back, but it didn't. He didn't like thinking about her because it would always go to thoughts like, maybe they finally got her, or, maybe she doesn't like you anymore, or maybe it's just because the last time she saw him, he was flying the plane into the water. Maybe she thinks he's gone, and she has the same reasons not to go back there, to not think about him because she'd remember that day. He could only wonder. But his thoughts had been cut short when they forced him into the jet and began their flight to the beach.

They were all doing something, except Steve. Natasha, Clint and Tony were in the water splashing each other, Pepper was sunbathing, Bruce was collecting seashells and even Thor kept climbing on a small ledge to do cannonballs while Steve just sat, doing nothing. Eventually he got bored went into the water, but after a bit, something caught Natasha and Clint's eyes.

"What's that?" Clint questioned. He was pointing at something on a big rock in the middle of the water. Eventually all four of them we looking over at it. "I'll go take a look at it." Steve suggested. He began swimming over there before seeing a bright blue shimmer. That's when he knew.

He swam at full speed until arriving at the rock. He quickly climbed on top and his breath caught in his throat when he saw it. Crystal was lying unconscious, her hands covering her side. He moved them and saw a big red gaping hole. He grabbed her carefully and swam back to shore.

"What's that!" Tony asked obnoxiously. Clint and Natasha soon joined his questions along with Thor when he came over. But they all stopped when they saw her tail. Steve laid her on the medical table in the middle of the quin jet, when he noticed all their stares. "SHES A MERMAID, SO WHAT! GO DO SOMETHING TO HELP HER!" They all visibly flinched at Steve's outburst but recovered and began running around.

When they had landed, Bruce took her to the medbay at started healing her. When he was finished, Steve took that as his chance to explain his past with her. At the end, they all looked ashamed that they judged her so quickly. Suddenly there was a loud crash from the room Crystal was in and they all ran in, only to find, no one there.
