Prologue

It was a happy time for all of the Avengers. Loki had been defeated and the city had been reconstructed. As it turned out Loki was under mind control. Thanos had thought Loki would have been the perfect victim in order to attack Earth and Asgard. Who would have guessed?

Best of all, every Avenger had found their significant others or in some cases finally admitting their feelings.


Pepper was sitting on the luxurious leather couch typing reports. Tony cautiously approached her, attempting not to make a sound. Sadly Pepper knew him too well.

"Hey Tony," Pepper said, smiling at him. "You're out of the lab early. What's up?"

"Nothing much," Tony replied. "I just need to ask you something."

Raising an eyebrow, Pepper placed her laptop on the coffee table. "Is something wrong?"

"I don't believe so," Tony responded, "unless, of course, you say no."

Then Tony knelt on one knee. Pepper gasped. He pulled out a gorgeous engagement ring. A large red diamond surround by smaller white diamonds. The band was a metallic golden shade. It was just so... Tony.

"Virginia Pepper Potts," Tony began, "You have been there for me through thick and thin. Through Afghanistan, Monaco, when I was dying and now. There is only one question that I have to ask...Will you marry me?"

Pepper stared at the ring for a few moments before breaking into a grin. "Yes! Of course I'll marry you!"

Tony gave his famous megawatt grin and kissed Pepper promptly on the lips, before sliding the ring onto her ring finger.

"Nothing could make this moment more perfect," Tony murmured into his new fiancee's ear.

In the hug Tony couldn't see the knowing smile spreading across Pepper's face. She pushed him aside to stare into his deep dark brown eyes.

"Oh it definitely could be better." Pepper prompted, "Tony, I'm pregnant."

For one unusual moment Tony Stark was silent. He couldn't breathe for a few moments. A child?

"Tony," Pepper began. "Honey, are you okay. You want the baby, right? If you don't want him or her it's okay. We'll think of something-"

"Pepper are you insane?" Tony grinned. "Of course I want the baby. I was just shocked. That's all. Wait till the media gets a hold of this. Pepper Stark pregnant with Stark to be..."


Darcy Lewis walked into the lab, where her fiance,Bruce Banner, sat analyzing...something. Darcy couldn't understand whatever went through his huge, green brain.

"Hey honey," Darcy grinned. "I have to tell you something. It's absolutely urgent. Like, seriously, urgent."

Bruce sighed, as he wheeled around in his chair. "What's up, sweetheart? Is something wrong?"

"Well," Darcy began, "that depends on how you see it. I think it's good news, hopefully, you will too."

"Okay," Bruce said, nervously. "You're seriously scaring me right now, Darce. And what do you mean 'I think it's good news.'"

"How do you feel about a tiny little rage monster running around the house?"

"What?" Bruce asked confused. "Like a baby?"

"Exactly like a baby!" Darcy exclaimed, her eyes shining.

"But what does that have to do with us?" Bruce asked. Then it dawned on him. "Wait, we're having a baby?"

Darcy nodded. Bruce laughed as he twirled Darcy around. "We're having a baby!"

"Yes we are!"


Natasha looked at the pregnancy test with uncertainty. Positive. She was a master assassin and Avenger. Natasha couldn't be pregnant.

"Tasha," Clint called, "you in the bedroom?" he asked.

Natasha gasped. "Just a sec, Clint." She stuffed the pregnancy test under the pillow. How's that super spy material for you?

Clint walked in. "You alright?"

Natasha smiled. "I'm absolutely fine. I'm gonna go use the bathroom." Then she rushed out of the room, hoping that Clint didn't notice her face.

Clint, being the spy he was, had cameras where even Natasha couldn't find. His own invention. He was very proud.

Rewinding the scenes back to a few moments before Clint could see his wife stick something underneath her pillow. Knowing that if she wanted to hide something it was never good so Clint did what any SHIELD agent would do, investigate.

He flipped back the pillow and stared at what lay underneath. He then picked it up to see what had made his Tasha so upset. Positive.

"Natasha? What's this?" the master archer asked even though he already knew exactly what it was and meant.

His wife stumbled out of the bathroom wiping her eyes. She sat on the king sized bed and took a deep breath before had begun to grow out her fiery red hair again and it was now in a braid. In Clint's eyes she was the most beautiful woman in the universe. Granted she didn't kill you first.

"Clint, I don't know how to say this...I might as well just say it...I'm...I'm pregnant."

The assassin burst into tears. Not small tear streaks but big, heaving sobs. Clint sat down on the bed next to her and allowed her to cry into his shoulder.

Clint could see nothing wrong with a baby. After being a wandering soul for so long it would be nice to have a family, a home.

"Why don't you want a kid Tasha?"

"Oh Clint. We have so many enemies. So many insane people put behind bars. What if they take it out on our child?"

He cupped Natasha's chin in his palms. He stared directly into Natasha Barton's eyes. "Honey," Clint began, "We live in a tower full of superheroes. A man with a suit of armor that shoots missiles, a super soldier, a man with insane rage issues, two gods, and us. Honestly, I think someone who would try to attack our baby is honestly extremely insane. More than Loki was when he was under mind control," he explained.

Natasha giggled. She stared back at her husband and fellow agent.

"You're right a baby is perfect," Natasha smiled. "My god, Tony is going to spoil him or her isn't he?"


Loki and Thor sat in the yard playing with Asgeir, Thor's one year old son.

"So brother?" Loki started. "What is it like having a son?" he asked.

"A most fun time," Thor replied, smiling fondly at his one year old son. He was the splitting image of him, but Jane's features was quite noticeable as well.

Asgeir was large in size just as a god should be. He had short dirty blond and blue eyes. His skin was tanned even at such a young age. Asgeir had both Jane's brown eyes and brain.

At that moment both Jane and Lady Sif walked in the yard.

"Loki, there is important news to be shared," Sif smiled, her long brown hair bouncing.

Alarmed at the fact Sif was smiling, he pounced on his feet. "What is it, Sif?" he asked.

"Loki," Sif laughed, "there is no reason for you to be nervous. This is very good news."

"Yeah Loki, chill," Jane grinned. Loki scowled at Jane. She giggled, not looking into Loki's eyes. "Sorry," Jane murmured, "bad choice of words."

"Anyway," Sif continued, "you will be very pleased."

"Well?" Loki demanded. "What is it?"

"A child," Sif responded. "We're having a baby."

Loki froze for few moments looking at Sif's stomach in awe. "A child," he repeated, then looking into Sif's eyes. "You're having a baby."

"We're having a baby," Sif corrected.

Loki embraced her in a hug. "I am quite pleased, Sif."

"As am I, Loki." Sif smiled fondly.

"Come my fellow family!" Thor bellowed. "We must celebrate with a feast and drinks!"

The others laughed happily, agreeing with Thor. Jane scooped up Asgeir into her hands and strolled back into the palace.


Steve Rogers jumped up as his wife, Amy, came running in the door. His first instinct told him something was wrong. Even though it had been peaceful lately, peace didn't last forever.

"Amy! Did something happen?" Steve demanded.

Amy had a giddy expression on her face and a dreamy expression in her eyes.

"Is the super solider serum genetic?" Amy asked.

Steve's brain fell apart like a puzzle that he needed to put back together. What did the serum have to do with anything? "What? I don't know Star. Ask Tony or Bruce!"

Amy sighed. "Why are boys so dumb?" she asked, looking at the sky.

Steve scowled. He hated mind games. Especially that ridiculous guessing game.

"Sweetie," Amy said slowly. "I just came back from the doctors."

Steve's eyes widened in alarm. "Are you alright Star? Are you sick?"

"No!" Amy shouted. "I'm PREGNANT! P-R-E-G-N-A-N-T! Pregnant. There is going to be a new Rogers."

Steve stared. "Oh." Then the shock came to him. He began laughing and smiling while embracing Amy. "We're having a baby!" he repeated over and over again. He twirled her around, the giddiness spreading throughout his entire body, "We're having a baby!"
