"We can worry about Steve later." Peter says as he keeps the conversation on track. "Although we came to a decision, we need to figure out which members of the World Security Council are Hydra."
"I think it's best that we just assume it's all of them and bring them in." Erik says, getting nods from everyone in the room. "The problem is containing every Shield Agent in the process. If we allow Hydra agents to escape, they'll simply hide away for another 60 years, building their strength while biding time for another Project Insight..."
"That's what makes Hydra so effective." Peter says in annoyance. "As long as a single grunt remains, they'll continue to existing."
"But that's impossible." Fury says with a shake of his head. "Shield has bases in every major country and active agents all across the world. Even retired agents could be Hydra."
"If you give me a list of Shield bases, then I can put barriers around each of them, locking the agents inside." Peter says after a moment of thought.
"That's right, I keep forgetting that you're a magician..." Magneto comments with a smirk.
"Sorcerer, but yeah." Peter corrects him with a shrug.
"The barriers would have to go up at the same exact time, or else word will spread and agents will flee." Fury says.
"That makes it a bit more complicated, but I can make it work." Peter nods.
"What about active and retired agents?" Charles asks.
"Or the ones that just didn't show up to work that day." Tony adds.
"Or the Hydra bases that exist outside of Shield." Erik follows up.
"We can worry about that afterward." Peter comments, as they don't have enough time or resources to hunt down that many individuals.
"I'm sure the Captain would be happy to deal with the cleaning up the stragglers." Erik says, knowing Steve would hunt Hydra to the ends of the Earth.
"Alright, I think that's a good enough game plan." Peter says as he turns to Fury. "Get me a list of addresses for each base and I can get to work."
"You'll have it by tomorrow." Fury says as the meeting started coming to an end. "Do you also need a list of-"
"Pamela Hawley, Alexander Pierce, Gideon Malick, Chao Yen, Jakuna Singh, Douglas Rockwell." Peter knew what he was going to ask and listed off every member of the World Security Council.
Fury sighs in annoyance as he gets up and leaves the room in silence.

After the meeting concluded, Peter wanted to update Steve on the situation, but it was already midday, which meant Lily should be done with her first day of school soon.
Opening a portal to his house, Peter changed his clothes in an instant, hopped into his car, and drove to the school.
...
Pulling up front behind the other parents who came to pick up their children, Peter ignored the odd looks he received for his rust bucket and searched for Lily.
Peering through the crowd of children, he found her sitting on the grass, talking to a familiar boy around her age, who wore a hooded sweatshirt over his school uniform.
[Insert Picture of Miles Morales, because I forgot last time.]
'It's happening...' Peter thought in dread as he menacingly glared at the ten-year-old child. 'I thought that I'd have at least a few years without any boys sniffing around...'
He felt like he knew the boy from somewhere, but shook his head negatively after a moment of thought.
Pushing his fatherly hatred to the side, Peter stopped glaring at the innocent kid and beeped his horn.
*Beep Beep!*
...
Seeing Lily turn her head toward the honking car, Miles looked over and found a rusty car in the distance.
"Is that your dad?" Miles asks as he saw Peter in the driver's seat.
"Yeah, I have to go..." Lily was a bit reluctant to leave her new friend.
"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow." Miles nodded as he wondered how old Lily's father was.
After saying their farewells, Lily ran off to her father while Miles went to his bus, as both of his parents worked during the day.
...
As Lily buckled up in the backseat, Peter watched her from the rearview mirror and drove off.
"So... make any new friends?" Peter asks.
"Just one." Lily answers vaguely as she looks out of the window and sees Miles alone in his bus, sitting away from the other children.
...
As they drove home, Peter asked her a bunch of questions about her first day of school.
When they pulled up and parked in the driveway, Lily spoke up.
"Dad, can my friend come over after school tomorrow?" She asks out of nowhere.
"Sure, as long as his parents say it's okay." Peter wouldn't let his dislike for possible future boyfriends ruin Lily's first friendship.
"Okay, I'll text him and ask." Lily says as she hops out of the car and whips out a cell phone.
"Hey, who gave you a phone?" Peter asks as he didn't remember her having one.
"Mom did!" Lily calls out as she rushes inside while texting her friend.
"First a boy and now a phone..."
————————————————
After spending the day with Lily, and watching her complete her homework in under a minute, Peter suited up and returned to the tower.
*Knock Knock*
Tapping his knuckles on Steve's apartment door, Peter waited for a moment before the door swung open, revealing an expectant-looking Peggy Carter.
"You're not the sushi delivery guy..." She says in disappointment.
"Nope." Peter smirks as he pushes past her and strolls inside.
"...Make yourself at home." Peggy says sarcastically as she closes the door and watches as Peter takes a seat on the couch.
"Is Steve home?" Peter asks as he ignores her comment.
On the TV, a romance movie was playing, showing a man and a woman kissing on a beach furring sunset.
"No, he's at the gym, but he should be back any minute." Peggy answers as she pauses her movie and looks at Peter questioningly. "What's this about?"
"Hydra." Peter reveals as the door swung open and Steve came walking in, covered in sweat.
"Hydra?" He asks in confusion as the door slowly closes behind him. "What are you two talking about."
...
After explaining the recent council meeting to the old couple, Peter watched as Peggy frowned silently and Steve started pacing around the room.
"How could they let this happen?!" Steve exclaims angrily with a pissed-off look on his face. "Who thought that recruiting Nazis after the war would be a smart decision?!"
"Idiot bureaucrats who wanted to increase the power of their country." Peter answers with a shrug.
"You knew about this?" Steve turns to Peggy and asks.
After all, she was around at that time and used to be the Director of Shield. There's not much that she wouldn't know from back then.
"I knew about Operation Paperclip, but nothing to this extent." Peggy defends herself as her frown deepens.
"Well, you should have done something!" Steve says emotionally, though he instantly regretted it.
"I wasn't the Director of Shield at the time." Peggy says as her voice gets a bit heated. "I didn't have a say in what happened, Steve."
Silence fills the room as Steve takes a deep breath to calm himself down.
"You're right, I'm sorry." Steve apologizes as he takes a seat and stares at Peter expectantly. "How can I help?"
"There's already a plan in motion..."
—————————————
In an unknown Hydra facility, a cryogenic pod lifts open, revealing a thawed-out Bucky Barnes with a sleek metal arm.
[Insert picture of Bucky/Winter Soldier here]
Only a moment after the pod lifted, Bucky's eyes shot open, looking at his surroundings in confusion.
Sitting up, Bucky grabbed his head in pain as an electronic voice filled the room.
"longing, rusted, seventeen, daybreak, furnace, nine, benign, homecoming, one, freight car."
As these words registered in Bucky's brain, his eyes dulled and his face turned deadly serious.
The Winter Soldier was activated.
"Your orders are on the table." The voice of Alexander Pierce filled the room next.
Standing from his cryo-pod, the Winter Soldier paced over to the nearby table and flipped open a file, revealing a picture of Nick Fury alongside information that could prove helpful in his mission.
"The target is highly trained and extremely experienced." Pierce's voice appears again. "Do not underestimate him."
Without uttering a single word, the Winter Soldier takes the file and leaves the room, where his equipment was waiting alongside a fully fueled plane, ready to take him to his destination.
