Chasing Captain America
Work your way down the ramp in front of you and follow the catwalks east and then south to get a scene with Cap. There are a lot of mobs along the way, mostly robots with a few big robots and shield troopers thrown in. After chatting with Cap, clear the platform to find a Dossier. Chase Cap back along the catwalks you just cleared, taking the occasional potshot at him. (And he at you.) Cap leads you out onto some pipes and finally down into an arena tailor-made for a boss battle.

Get Cap down to about 66% health and he'll decide to "take this outside," which just means you're going to move to a different arena. Follow him outside and take out some generic mobs and follow the catwalks until you drop in on Cap and ../Iron Fist/. As if Captain America alone isn't sufficient challenge for you.

Captain America with Iron Fist
Iron Fist has the ability to heal himself and others; so, concentrate fire and Fusions on him. He's pretty weak, so one or two Targeted Fusion hits should take him down. You are then left with Cap. Cap has serious knockback attacks, making it hard to stay on your feet long enough to get off a Fusion. He also doesn't stand still much and his shield throw has to be watched for so you can dodge it. But, in general, Cap goes down to Targeted Fusions the same as any other boss. If you're running out of teammates and can't get off a Fusion, stand far away and pepper him with ranged attacks.

Captain America with Luke Cage
Also, the arena randomly shoots out plumes of fire, which makes the fight harder. Avoid the circles on the floor to avoid the flames and get Cap down to 50% health to start the next cutscene. Cap runs outside and gets in a tussle with ../Iron Man/ that ends with Iron Man down and you facing off against Cap in yet another battle arena.

This time Cap is joined by ../Luke Cage/. To get the ../Boosts/ for beating Cage, finish him off while avoiding Cap's attacks. Luke and Captain America also use Targeted Fusions on their own! Just make sure that no one is inside the targeting circle when that happens. To just get this over with, concentrate on Captain America; when he reaches less than 25% health, the next cutscene plays out.
