After the fight Natasha had been so overcome by exhaustion that she had passed out. The four males had immediately called for medics and so now the waited outside of her room Clint was about to jump out of his seat every time a doctor walked down the hall. Twenty minutes passed until Clint's phone rang he answered and sighed.

"Who's screaming…..I'll be right there…No do not tell her…..I'm on my way" Clint shut his phone and stood up he walked down the hall stealing a glance at Natasha's door before turning the corner he went down a couple of floors until he found the one he was looking for he stepped out of the elevator and quickly covered his ears hearing the screaming that came from all the way down the hall. He walked down the hall quickly until he saw who was screaming. It was a small little girl with cherry red hair she was screaming as loud as she could tears streaming her small face Clint knelt down in front of her and rested a hand on her shoulder she opened her eyes and threw her small arms around Clint's neck and started sobbing.

"Shh, shh, it's okay hey I'm here it's okay" Clint said he stood and started rubbing circles on the little girl's back she clung to Clint tightly seeming to never want to let go.

"Daddy I missed you and I got scared cause Uncle Phil didn't come get me and then the weird lady tried to make me go with her and you and mommy weren't there and I didn't know what to do" The little girl cried holding on to Clint harder he smiled sadly and kissed her head gently.

"I know you were scared but its okay now I'm here okay let's go upstairs and when Mommy wakes up you can see her too okay, Mercy" Clint asked the little girl, Mercy, nodded.

"What happened to mommy" Mercy asked as Clint started back towards the elevator.

"Mommy was just really tired okay but don't worry she'll be fine" Clint said as the elevator started moving Clint set Mercy down on her feet she looked up at him and nodded.

"Who all is up there" Mercy asked holding onto Clint's hand she rubbed her eyes trying to make it look like she hadn't been crying.

"Well there is Captain America, Bruce Banner, Thor and Uncle Tony" Clint said Mercy smiled at the mention of 'Uncle' Tony her smile grew wider as the elevator dinged the two stepped out of the elevator and walked towards Natasha's room. Bruce, Steve and Thor looked confused as Mercy ran over to 'Uncle' Tony and jumped on his lap he gave a low moan but smiled at her anyway.

"Anything" Clint asked sitting down in a chair next to Tony, Mercy crawled over into Clint's lap and yawned Clint smiled down at her.

"No sorry" Bruce said Clint nodded as Bruce, Steve, and Thor looked at Mercy. The little girl was absolutely beautiful; she had shoulder length cherry red hair and lovely light blue eyes. She looked at the three men before crawling off her father's lap and walked over to them she stood in front of Steve and crossed her arms.

"Who you" Mercy asked pointing at Steve she had an expression that resembled Natasha's own annoyed expression. Tony tried suppressing his chuckles.

"Steve Rogers, Miss" Steve said Mercy nodded and before turning to Bruce.
"Who you" She said the same expression she had had with Steve.

"Bruce Banner" Bruce said smiling at her Mercy nodded and turned to Thor she tilted her head to one side and looked at what he was wearing.

"I know who you are you're Thor I think you okay at least that's what Daddy said" Mercy said and pointed at Clint Tony laughed at the four year old.

"That's right I am Thor and who are you" Thor asked Mercy tilted her head to the side again.

"Mercy Belle Romanov Barton" Mercy said smiling at Clint he nodded telling her she had pronounced the words right.

"That's a long name" Bruce said Mercy nodded.

"I have to member it case I get lost but I won't get lost" Mercy said and walked back over to Tony she climbed into his lap and looked up at him.

"Uncle Tony I lost my Ironman toy will you buy me a new one" Mercy asked batting her eye lashes at him Tony smiled and nodded.

"I'll give you a whole Ironman suit of you want" Tony said Clint reached over and smacked Tony.

"I don't think so, Stark" Clint said Tony nodded.

"I'll just make you a costume how about that" Tony said Mercy smiled and nodded she looked around before crawling back over to Clint she looked up at him and pouted.

"I want Mommy" Mercy said quietly Clint smiled sadly and wrapped his arms around Mercy and kissed the side of her head.

"I know" Clint told her quietly Mercy continued to pout she laid her head on Clint's chest and closed her eyes Clint smiled down at her and ran a hand through her cherry colored hair.

"How old is she" Steve asked Clint looked up.

"Four she turns five it June" Clint answered Tony watched his 'niece'.

"I think I'm going to go call Pepper again" Tony said and stood up and walked down the hall.

"So she's yours and Natasha's" Thor asked Clint nodded.

"Yeah" Clint said shifting Mercy a little so that her head rested in the crook of his elbow Mercy sighed and put her thumb in her mouth. A doctor came down the hall and went into Natasha's room he came out a moment later. Clint stood careful not to move Mercy she mumbled something in her sleep but didn't wake.

"They are both fine" The doctor said Clint froze.

"Both" He asked the doctor looked at him confused for a moment.

"Yes Miss Romanov is pregnant she is five weeks along it was a miracle the baby even survived with as much damage her body had received" The doctor explained Clint looked down at Mercy to Natasha's room then back to the doctor.

"Uh can we see her now" Clint asked the doctor nodded Clint turned and walked into Natasha's room he breathed a sigh of relief at the site of Natasha sitting up and awake. Natasha turned her head when she heard him come in she smiled seeing Clint holding Mercy.

"Hey" She whispered Clint walked over and stood next to the bed Natasha held out her arms and Clint laid Mercy in them Natasha smiled down at her daughter Mercy laid her hand on Natasha's chest over her heart. Clint sat on the edge of Natasha's bed and laid a hand on her stomach she smiled at him.

"How are you feeling" Clint asked.

"I'm fine" Natasha answered shifting Mercy a little.

"Well I'm guessing you already know about the um other little being" Clint said Natasha laughed softly and nodded.

"We really need to start planning better" Natasha said Clint laughed Mercy shifted a little and opened her eyes she yawned and looked around she looked confused at not being in Clint's arms but relaxed after feeling the familiar feel of her mother's heart beat under her hand. Mercy sat up and smiled at her mother.

"Hi Mommy" Mercy said her voice still filled with sleep Natasha smiled.

"Hey baby did you have a good nap" Natasha asked Mercy nodded yawning again.

"Hey sweetie we have good news" Clint said Mercy looked at him confused for a minute.

"What Daddy" Mercy asked Clint looked at Natasha before answering.

"You're going to a big sister Mommy's going to have another baby" Clint said Mercy's eyes widened she looked at Natasha who nodded telling her daughter that what Clint said was indeed true.

"Really that's really cool can I go tell Uncle Tony and Mr. Fury" Mercy asked a huge grin on her face Natasha nodded.

"Hold on let Mommy get dressed and then we can go" Natasha said moving to stand she set Mercy down on the bed before turning and grabbing a pair of sweatpants and a tank top and changing Clint smiled at the small almost unnoticeable bump on her stomach Mercy held her arms out to Clint he picked her up and set her on his hip. Natasha walked back over and they all left the room. They walked out and towards the main .S.H.E.I.L.D. room Clint set Mercy down on her feet.

"Mr. Fury guess what" Mercy said tugging on Fury's black trench coat he looked down ready to glare but stopped at the sight of a four year old batting her eyelashes up at him.

"What is it" He asked looking around he spotted Clint and Natasha standing by the door watching.

"I'm going to be a big sister isn't that cool Mommy's having another baby" Fury froze at the little girl's words he looked back over to the little girl's parents then back to Mercy.

"Really that's nice why don't you go tell more people while I talk to your mommy" Fury said Mercy nodded and took off running she didn't make it very far before she slipped and fell but she got up and started running again all the while yelling for her Uncle Tony.

"We might need a longer vacation than the others if you don't mind" Clint said Fury turned and glared.

"I can see that will it be the same amount of time as before" Fury said turning to look at Natasha.

"If nothing goes wrong then yes" Natasha said Fury sighed he was clearly annoyed.

"Well then I guess I don't have much a choice here but I want you both to stay at Stark Tower for bonding purposes it was Stark's idea the others will be there also" Fury said Clint and Natasha nodded though slightly annoyed at the idea.

"Fine well we're going to go find Mercy before she finds the intercom and announces the news to the entire ship" Clint said as the two left Fury shook his head at the idea that a four year old could bring two master assassins to their knees along with every other person on the ship and soon there would be another one.
