If we think we can pull this off, we're Stark raving mad
The different clothes, the dyed hair, a ballcap, and sunglasses made for a reasonable disguise.  Probably wouldn't fool many for long, but long enough to get them where they needed to go.

He wasn't paying attention to the Stark Industries tour guide, though he would, to most people watching, look like he was.  Years of slacking off in classes and pretending to pay attention that way, at least, had paid off.  His real focus was on Anya, waiting for her to tell him when they needed to slip away, so they could track down...

Whoever it was that was impersonating him.  Or duplicating him.  Or...  he didn't know.  There were too many damn possibilities in this world for this kind of thing.

"I can!" he snapped. "I have! And I've done it all for you! Every time, every death, it was all for Anya! All to keep her safe!"

His expression was growing more maniac. "But now... now you're here! You're actually here! And we can be together again!"

Anya shook her head. "No. We can't. I am not your Anya. She is dead. You said so yourself. I belong with the Steve from this universe. You are not him."

She felt sorry for him and pitied him, but she kept her Widow's Bite aimed at him.

"The Mandarin is dead. Your Anya is dead. You need to let them go and move on with your life. A life of revenge for someone who is already dead is no life at all. You are sinking into darkness and are no better than the Mandarin was."

He moved with surprising speed, his hand wrapping around her forearm and pulling her close.

"No! I've finally found you again! And nothing is going to keep us apart! Nothing! Do you hear me?!"

"I'M NOT YOURS!" she yelled in his face and then headbutted him.

He reeled back, tried to strike her, but another fist pounded into the side of his head. Steve's.

"Hands off my girl!"

His other-worldly counterpart blasted some beam from his rings, but the shot went wide, arcing too far up, and missed him entirely. He kept close, exchanging blow after blow with his counterpart, neither gaining the advantage, both moving back and forth too much to get a good shot in.

Anya was going to have a headache for awhile, but she could worry about it later. She aimed and let lose a blast from the Widow's Bite.

The blast struck the other-Steve, damaging something else in the chestplate. There was a crackle of energy that seemed to start to consume him. But he fought on and grabbed Steve, the glow beginning to suffuse them both.

"ANYA!" he cried out. "I LOVE Y----"

There was a great flash of light that seemed to consume them both. When it cleared, both were gone.

Anya blinked a few times to regain her sight. When she could see again there was no Steve. Not hers and not the double.

Her chest tightened and she couldn't breathe. It felt like someone had just kicked her in the gut. Panic rose.

"STEVE!" she yelled. OhpleaseGodno! "STEVE!" she yelled again.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" she screamed at the top of her voice. She fell to her knees. Her hands went to her face and the tears started to fall.

She didn't even notice when the SHIELD agents showed up sometime later and took her into custody.
