2018 Fall out

After defeating a majority of the terrorists, Cap encountered a man that looked like Red Skull, who easily beat him. The Red Skull then shockingly revealed to Steven that he was his own son before throwing him out of a helicopter. Cap was saved by Hawkeye.

Believing this Red Skull to have been telling the truth, Rogers went rogue to find out the truth for himself. After learning that the Red Skull was indeed his son by Gail Richards, Captain America decided to personally confront his son. He also discovered during this investigation, that there were secret expirements after him in trying to recreate the Serum, including expirementing on hundreds of African American's during the War. He abandoned the Avengers and attacked S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the process. Rogers later infiltrated the Army's computer database and discovered the truth about the Red Skull.

2020 Disaster
On the anniversary of their foundation, the Avengers planned a celebration to commemorate the event. These included opening their West Coast Headquarters in San Francisco and revealing their own helicarrier, the Iliad, along with its Terrigen reactor. Among these were plans to pick a fan's story of them and a VIP section, only accessible for those who gathered enough comics. Among the Avengers present were Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow and Bruce Banner, The New Captain America and the Retired Steve Rogers,

However, during the midst of celebrations, Taskmaster and his mercenaries attacked the Golden Gate Bridge, leading the team, aside from Rogers, to be drawn away to combat the threat. The Avengers worked together to reduce casualties and defeat the group, taking on a variety of stolen SHIELD equipment, such as Pulsar Tanks and a Sonic Bomb. Masters was eventually defeated by Widow, though the team quickly realized it had been a diversion.

On the Iliad, Rogers discovered that Masters had sent mercenaries to attack the helicarrier, leading to a fight between them and its security protocols to be activated. Whilst in mid-flight, the Terrigen reactor began to react with something in the bay, causing massive damage to the Iliad, earthquakes through the area and Terrigen mists to form. In a last ditch effort to stop the reaction, Cap destroyed the reactor, leading the Iliad to crash and his apparent death. The other Avengers watched in horror from the Golden Gate Bridge, unable to return in time or do anything to stop it.

As the Terrigen Mists flooded San Francisco, the surviving Avengers attempted to mitigate the damage and rescue as many civilians as possible. Despite this, they were unable to stop much of the disaster, including the mist flooding San Francisco and turning many individuals into Inhumans. The Terrigen Crystals from the ship dissolved in the ocean, releasing Terrigen Mist which was absorbed into the ecosystem, also Fish near the dissolution were turned into Nature Max Supplements Fish Oil pills that were sold in stores and then distributed to the general public. Descendants of Inhumans who took the pills underwent Terrigenesis and emerged from cocoons with new extraordinary powers;

The Fallout
In the weeks after the disaster, the Avengers became the main scapegoats for the disaster, with government officials, journalists and the public blaming them for the event. These were further increased when AIM scientists George Tarleton and Monica Rappaccini, both of whom had worked on the Terrigen Reactor for them, submitted reports claiming that Stark had ignored warning reports about the reactors. This led to the US senate deciding to investigate the team further and determine whether the Avengers should continue to function or to disband the team. At some point before these proceedings, Thor, blaming himself for not saving Rogers, decided to leave the team and protecting Earth.

As the investigations took place, the remaining Avengers were brought up to give testimony. Both Stark and Romanoff tried to defend the team and tried to argue that they would never endanger civilians. However, Banner, due to insecurities about the Hulk and manipulations by Monica, testified that they did pose a threat and were responsible. This ultimately led the Avengers to officially disband, with each going their separate ways.

Banner had went MIA. Stark had retreated to his family's Golden Acres estate, with very little contact with the outside world. Hank and Janet having Separated after the Fallout due to Hank's instability, Romanoff continued to work for SHIELD just not as an Avenger, going back to her Spy days.

Thor rumors that Thor went offworld and back to Asgard could not be proven

New Crew
When the Original Team disbanneded, Fury and SHIELD were tasked by the UN Council to recruit a new team of Avengers, which many were already on SHIELD File list as potential recruits.
