Capture of Clint Barton

The Capture of Clint Barton was a way for the Tracksuit Mafia to find the location of Kate Bishop from Clint Barton.
==Background==
In 2018, Thanos snapped his fingers, resulting in the deaths of half of all life in the universe,Avengers: Infinity War including Laura Barton, Lila Barton, Cooper Barton, and Nathaniel Barton. His grief over losing his family led to Clint Barton becoming a vigilante known as Ronin and brutally massacring gangs.Avengers: Endgame He spent years in New York City,Hawkeye: 1.01: Never Meet Your Heroes at one point killing many members of the Tracksuit Mafia, including its leader, William Lopez. Lopez's daughter, Maya Lopez, then took charge of the Tracksuit Mafia.Hawkeye: 1.03: Echoes
Upon hearing from Natasha Romanoff that there was a chance of reviving his family, Barton rejoined the Avengers in their mission to retrieve the Infinity Stones by traveling back in time to get them. They were successful in reviving everyone, but Thanos from an alternate timeline arrived and destroyed the Avengers Compound, resulting in a major battle. Barton left the suit and sword he used as Ronin in the wreckage of the compound. The two were later retrieved and were set to be sold during a black market auction.
The sword was sold to Armand Duquesne III, and the suit was about to get sold, when the Tracksuit Mafia arrived and attacked the auction. Kate Bishop, who had been spying on Duquesne III, found the Ronin suit and put it on, defeating the members of the Tracksuit Mafia while wearing the suit. Still wearing the suit, Bishop rescued a dog from getting run over, and got filmed doing it. The footage made it to the news, causing Barton to see it being reported on by NY1 host Pat Kiernan. Barton found Bishop as she was getting attacked, causing the two to meet. Barton asked for the suit back and the two returned to Bishop's apartment, where they were again attacked. As the apartment burned, Barton and Bishop had to leave the suit behind, where it was discovered and taken by a firefighter named Grills for use as a member of the New York City Live Action Role Players. Barton recovered the suit and brought it to a locker room, planning to clear Bishop's name and make sure that the Tracksuit Mafia knew she was not Ronin.Hawkeye: 1.02: Hide and Seek
==Capture==
Clint Barton allowed his location to become known while he waited outside of a store. Maya Lopez ordered the Tracksuit Mafia to bring him to her alive, so several men from the gang went to Barton. Enrique greeted Barton and hit him with a baseball bat. A bag was put over Barton's head as he was let into the truck, while Ivan Banionis ordered the men to drive away and Barton commented that he could see through the bag, while Tomas said that capturing Barton was easy. Barton was brought to the KB Toys Store. When Kate Bishop attempted to call Barton, a member of the Tracksuit Mafia answered, so she tracked Barton's phone and prepared to rescue him.
Barton was tied to a chair with the bag removed from his head. Barton commented on the toy store being creepy, upsetting Tomas, who had chosen the place. Barton attempted to tell the Tracksuit Mafia members that he and Bishop were not the Ronin, but was getting nowhere, so he asked to speak to the person in charge. Tomas got upset, believing that he was interrogating Barton, until Barton revealed that he had undone the knot that tied him to the chair and again asked to speak to the man in charge, asking if Kazi Kazimierczak was the man in charge. The Mafia asked where Bishop was, and Barton claimed to not know who she was, until Bishop crashed down and hit the floor. The Mafia pointed their guns at Bishop and duct taped her and Barton to mechanical toy rides. Bonionis then told Lopez that both Barton and Bishop had been captured.
==Aftermath==
Maya Lopez interrogated Clint Barton and Kate Bishop, but the two managed to escape their captivity, during which Barton's hearing aid was broken. Bishop mentioned the capture and escape in convincing Barton to let her work with him, since Ronin's Suit is what brought the pair together. Lopez ordered Kazi Kazimierczak to look into Barton, and he discovered the names and ages of his wife and children. Bishop discovered Kazimierczak's notes while attempting to infiltrate Lopez's apartment and retrieve Laura Barton's watch, but Lopez attacked Bishop in the process.Hawkeye: 1.04: Partners, Am I Right?
