Captain America: Secret Empire (4th Film)

Edit this at your own risk...

Someone deleted all of my Captain America 3 synopsis once, and I nearly cried.

Synopsis
The film opens in Wakanda, in a small institute known only as 'Winter'. The building is well guarded by armed soldiers, all dressed in Panther-like uniform. Everything seems normal until three military vehicles pull up and US Military soldiers jump out, guns raised. They demand that the Wakandan Soldiers step aside - the US Military is here under the Super Hero Registration Act, and they have reason to believe that a hero is here. The US Military is supported by a hero in armoured costume known only as Penance.

When the Panther Guards refuse the US Military in their requests to enter, Penance kills several guards before warning that everyone else will die if they do not step aside. The Panthers refuse to move, so Penance lets out an energy blast that sends many soldiers to their deaths. A big fire-arms battle begins, in which both sides have great losses. Penance, however, shows his confidence in the field.

The battle ends with the death of most Panther Guards, with many injured, and Penance leading the US Military through the gates into the Winter Institute. Once inside, Penance continues to encounter resistance but he fights valiantly, killing them all. He continues to head through the complex, and it's very obvious that he knows where he's going.

Eventually Penance and his soldiers arrive in a small room that is guarded by laser beams. Penance easily deactivates them before heading towards a stasis pod in the corner, where Bucky Barnes is being held. Penance yet again lets out an energy blast, deactivating the stasis pod and awakening Bucky. Buck - in response - immediately goes to strike down Penance, but Penance easily beats up Bucky, knocking him unconscious.

We then watch as Penance walks out of the Winter Institution with Bucky over his shoulder and US Military Soldiers stalking behind him, only we're seeing from above... It's revealed that we're looking from the perception of Steve Rogers, who is standing on a roof with a pare of binoculars watching as Penance takes away his friend. Steve speaks into a radio, and says that it's 'time'...

Then, out of nowhere, Falcon - Sam Wilson - shoots above in the sky, coming towards Penance at a great pace. Falcon knocks into the surprised Penance, taking him down to the ground, before beginning to fight the armoured hero. A big battle ensues, in which Penance fires energy blasts and Sam jumps through the air in order to avoid it.

Meanwhile, Scott Lang is in his Ant-Man suit, as he runs towards the Military Vehicles and turns massive. At Giant-Size, he proceeds to tare apart the Vehicles, leaving only scraps behind as he kicks US Military soldiers and punches through others. The fight continues to grow, but Steve Rogers only watches. There's no fight for him. Then he's joined by Clint Barton, who proceeds to have a normal conversation with Steve whilst firing arrows down on enemies. It's revealed that Steve hasn't fought in many of the last battles taken by what has now been branded as the 'Secret Avengers'.

Falcon somehow beats Penance, battering the soldier to the ground before he is mildly injured. Then, whilst fighting Soldiers, he grabs Bucky and flies him into the air at a great speed, with the giant Scott Lang running closely behind him. The US Military has no chance against them as they destroy anything in their paths. That's when Lang shrinks before climbing on a motorbike and beginning to drive away, with Sam flying close behind.

Unknown Hours Later

A small Warehouse - branded the base of the Secret Avengers - filled with battered boxes and equipment. And a stasis pod. The heroes are all gathered around a stasis pod that a still unconscious Bucky Barnes is being put inside. We get to see the team together for the first time, and it's made up of Steve, Lang, Barton, Wilson and Wanda Maximoff - it's unclear of why she wasn't in the battle of Winter Institute.

It's now clear why Steve is not fighting anymore, and it's because he's no longer Captain America; that role has been filled by Sam, who's Falcon costume features the American flag. He also has a new triangular shield on his back, proving just how much Steve has been replaced. As Bucky's pod seals, the pair talk about Sam's role as Captain, and the fact that the public has not yet accepted him.

After the pod has closed, Sam and Steve go for lunch, eating in a grotty restaurant in Wakanda with their faces covered by baseball caps. The pair talks about the new existence of the Secret Avengers, and the fact that the Registration Act has forced them into hiding. Sam tells Steve that the USA trying to take back Bucky and being willing to kill Wakandans shows that this Act has gone too far, but Steve tells Sam to be patient - he has a meeting with Tony Stark in the next few days, and he promises to try and resolve these issues.
