“Before that let focus on the matter at hand” The Ancient One said as she turn to look at the spot where the future Avenger time travel, leaving Jay to his own thought.
When Jay was contemplating on The Acient One question, with a flash of light and some wind, two men appear in front of them, lowering the helmet to reveal Tony and Steve face.
Tony was holding a suitcase while Cap was holding Loki’s scepter and the Time stones, seeing this Jay smile.
“How was the bean Tony?”
“A bit bitter, maybe next time you should dip it in caramel first or something” he shrugged thinking back on how just a single bean he was able to escape from death door, feeling better than ever to be honest.
They then give the stones back to Jay and the Ancient One, saying goodbye they vanish back to their time. Seeing Steve Jay was a bit curious though, as he gave them the Tesseract before Loki can take it they didn’t have to run back further in time to get it so Jay wonder will Steve choose to go back in time to be with Peggy.
And how even with his involvement in the timeline, they travel back in this time line where he exist, this does not make sense, as because if there was him in that future then it should have been altered and not happen exactly like this.
Ancient One, oblivious to his paradoxical thought on the universe's timeline put the Time stone back to the Eye of Agomoto then turn to face Jay.
“I think it better to return the stones first and have our talk on a later day, Mr. Jay” She said as she conjure a portal and went back to the New York Sanctuary.

Jay holding onto the 2 Infinity stones went back to Stark building, where everyone was in shamble, people running around to look for the two items, one was a huge energy source that can open a space portal, the other was a mind controlling scepter.
In their mind, if either of this falls into the wrong hand would be disastrous, Alexander's thought process was even simpler, he wanted to use the two items to amass more power for Hydra and if anyone else get their hand on it then it would be disadvantaged to their's goal.
So when Jay who suddenly appears holding them, his expression was not very pretty.
“Mr. Walker you are holding SHIELD properties, please return them to us at once” he said in a deep threatening voice.
It not that he don’t want to snatch it from Jay but he can’t, while he didn’t saw it with his own eyes just the footage and reports he received from his spies and informant in SHIELD was enough for him to be extremely wary of Jay.
Facing his words Jay scoff, facing this Hydra leader Jay didn’t give him too much attention as influential as he is within Hydra but what is Hydra in Jay eyes? A slightly bigger and harder bug to squish but still Jay put up a pretense as he smiles in front of Alexander, handling him the scepter.
“You can have Loki’s scepter but the Tesseract will belong to the Asgardian, it was their property since acient time when not even SHIELD have exist yet”
His action didn’t really please Alexander and want to ask for more but after seeing Jay’s sharp cold eyes? He relents, but inside he also takes this incident to heart vowing to figure out a way to deal with Jay and if possible retrive the Tesseract.
So in the end, SHIELD took the scepter into its custody and Thor is to take the Tesseract back to Asgard to repair the Rainbow Bridge.
Tired from the battle, the Avenger gather at a local shawarma recommended by Stark. While they have their lunch,Conolel Rhodes now War Machine arrives to help in the battle, only to discover they have already won.
"I flew all the way from Hong Kong to here only to be of no use?"
Facing the tired and frustrated Rhodes everyone comfort him,Jay even very reluctantly give him a peice of his shawarma to cheer him up.
