hello all you Avengers fans! After watching 'The Avengers' for the umpteenth time in a row I started having thoughts about what their kids would be like. I had soooooo many thought in my head that I just had to put them down in some way. It has nothing to do with the comic vers, all movie vers. Sorry comic book fans. So here you go, read, and have fun XD.
The avengers team belongs to marvel and Stan Lee (God bless him)
It was the beginning of April and Tony Stark, genius billionaire playboy philanthropist, was at the Avengers tower working on his suit and refurbishing Steve's Shield. After a resent battle the Avengers had undergone, they had all needed a break, it hit them all hard. Plus the fact that Pepper was pregnant with his children was always on his mind no matter what type of distraction was in front of him. It had been about 7 months since Pepper had told the group that she was pregnant and 5 since she said it was twins.
Everyone had been with their kids. Thor and Jane with their 2 year old son Halder, Steve and Susan , Peggy's granddaughter, and their 1 ½ year old son Tyler, Natasha and Clint with their 3 month old twin daughters Tiana and Teralin, and Bruce with his boy Lance who was almost a year. She had announced to everyone that she was pregnant. Tony was instantly happy but worried as well. His wife was so small, how could she carry a child. Not to mention that he didn't think he would make the best father with his past. But after talking to Pepper about it he felt a little bit better about the idea of having a mini Stark running around, until he found out she was having twins.
"Sr. your desk is on fire" came the calm voice of JARVIS.
"Oh shit" tony yelled as he batted at the flames. He had been daydreaming and thinking about Pepper at that moment he had forgotten that the lighted torch was still in his hand. A blast of white fog from behind Tony made him visibly strain. "Well at least something was on fire this time" He said pointing his finger and glaring the robotic arm. "Thank you Jarvis, my mind was somewhere else" He said brushing himself off and looking at the desk.
"Let me guess, Concerned about Mrs. Stark in California." Jarvis said in a calm demeanor. "About that I have some distressing news Sir" JARVIS said to the now preoccupied Tony.
"Ya" Tony said getting back into his tinkering stride; he was cleaning out his jet boots.
"Mrs. Stark has gone into labor, Sr."
It took 2 minutes for Tony to stop and fully digest what JARVIS had just said. "Come again Jarvis, I thought you just said Pepper has gone into labor"
"I did Sir. I just got a call from Mr. Rhodes about 3 minutes ago saying that they were heading to the hospital. Shall I call for the jet to be prepared Sir?" JARVIS asked as Tony jumped out of his seat.
"That will take too long" Tony said as he fought to keep the panic down and out of his voice. "Get the Mark 9 ready now." Why now, she wasn't due for another 2 months. Sure she had twins but still two months is way too soon, He had read all he could about what happens from day one to a few months after the birth. "And if the rest of the group asks where I am, tell them I am going to California to be with Pepper."
"As you wish Sir. The suit is up and ready for you" JARVIS said as the yellow arms appeared from below the floor. Tony stepped onto the platform and put on the suit, all the while his mind was racing. What could be happening? They could survive outside the womb but it's still risky. Once the faceplate came down he was off heading straight for Malibu.
It took him 3 hours to get there at top speed and another 45 minutes because the receptionist up front would not allow him to go in while he was still in the Iron Man suit. It was 3:24 pm on April 4th. He found Rhodey and Happy outside room 201 where the receptionist said Pepper was. "What happened? Where's Pepper!" He said panting while staring at his friends. They both pointed at the door. Worry incased Tony as he gently knocked and then opened the door. There was Pepper on the bed, her back to him. A sigh of relief escaped him as he walked over to her side.
Then he froze, noticing that her stomach was not huge anymore. Her face was in her hands, her body shaking. He felt his heart drop to the ground floor. "Pepper, what happened? Where are the twins?! Where are the boys?!" he asked in a calm but stern voice as he took her hands in his. Her eyes were red from crying as she looked up at him, shaking her head.
"Not twins, triplets. Tony, they where all undernourished. I could barely get anything into me without it coming back up at all. I tried so hard and now, two of them have died!" She began to sob. All Tony could do was hold his wife, the love of his life, the woman that had always been there for him. Now he had to be there for her. He could feel tears falling from his face as well but he kept his mouth shut, letting his tears fall. He had to be strong. A gentle knock on the door made Pepper jump.
A blond hair nurse came into the room. "Mrs. Stark, Mr. Stark. I have news about your Daughter. I should not be telling you this but considering the facts I am going to" She said. Her name was Alisha; she was the head nurse of the pediatric facilities and in charge of newborns who were in critical care. "She is in dire condition I am sorry to say. It seems that she is slowly losing the battle." Alisha said in a soft voice. Pepper placed her head on Tony's shoulder and cried. A daughter, he was the father of a daughter; he was not going to lose her too.
"What's wrong with her? I would like to see her. Happy, Rhodey" He called. The two other men practically ran in and sat Pepper back on the bed. Tony took Peppers face in his hands, kissing the tears out of her eyes. "I will find a way to make her better, I promise" He whispered to her before leaving with Alisha. "Tell me, what's the diagnostic?"
"This is against out policies but considering who you are, maybe you could help" Alisha said, leading him down a hall and into an elivater. "Well her heart and lungs are abnormally large for a premature baby let alone a baby of her size. Specialists in birth defects say it is caused by genetic mutations within the parent's genetic code that they pass to their children. The mutation is caused by certain elements." Like palladium or this new element Tony thought putting a hand on his chest. "She is only 4 lb 5 oz Mr. Stark. Plus it seems that she is having a hard time breathing. She keeps coughing blood. We do not know what is happening. She is right there" Alisha said, pointing to a small room with only one observation window. "I am sorry Mr. Stark but only medical personnel may enter, and I have made sure they are the best of the best from this hospital. If there is a way to help her, they will find it." The blond said, but the only think Tony was paying attention to was the small newborn that was even too small for a diaper.
From what Tony could see, she had curly red hair like her mothers, her skin was very pail compared to other babies and the heart monitor was going painfully slow. At one point it hit a flat line, which made Tonys' do the same. 15 seconds passed, during which the doctors were about to perform child SPR, the baby screamed and her heart picked up again.
"Every time that happens, I think she has given up. But then she restarts her own heart. She is one stubborn cookie Mr. Stark" Alisha said smiling a little. But at that moment all he was thinking about was a conversation he had with a red headed adult 5 years and 4 months ago.
Tony was rushing to get to Pepper, one of the suits had landed near her and it was about to explode. He could just see her, time was almost up. With no time to slow down he reached for her and blasted off just as the suit exploded. He flew her over to a near-by building outside of the Stark Expo.
"I can't take this anymore, I'm resigning" Pepper had told him. Was he dreaming, had she really told him she was going to quit? He couldn't live without her so he would keep her with him in another way.
As they where bickering about the press he took the initiative and kissed her, showing that he didn't want to lose her at all. A flash came from beside them. Pepper and Tony looked to see Rhodey and Alisha, peppers assistant, on the roof top with them and a camera in her hands.
"Perfect, thank you Rhodey" Alisha said as he blasted off into the sky. "And by the way Ms. Pots I must resign because I have to go back, while I can go back" she said holding up a very godly bracelet with intricate weirs around it. "I just need to borrow some power from Mr. Stark's reactor and I will be on my way." The curly haired red head said with a smile.
"And what makes you think I will let you touch this" Tony said pointing to his chest plate where his reactor was.
"Because If I tell you it could ruin the current space time continuum, and we wouldn't want that now would we" She said smiling. Tony gaped at her. She couldn't be from the future. It's just not possible.
"How do we know you are telling the truth?" he asked.
"Why don't you ask JARVIS to help with a full body scan and check me for any sign that I am lying" she said turning slowly.
"No sign's Sir. She is indeed telling the truth"
"Ok but just a little" Tony said walking over to her.
Before Alisha connected one of the wires to the reactor she whispered "We will meet again Tony Stark, in about 5 years and 4 months. Just remember my hair, my small size, my stubbornness, and this" She said taking out a vile with a greenish liquid in it. "It is a serum that slows down the functioning of the heart and lungs. Don't forget" she said as her bracelet powered up. "Now before I go there is someone I need to pick up. Have a lovely life" and with that she gave Pepper a big hug, jumped off the building and was gone.
The memory went through his brain within seconds but it was enough to know what the curly red haired Alisha, his daughter, was talking about. "She is so grounded when she gets back" He said out loud as he looked at the statistics, thinking why anyone would need to slow the functioning of one's heart and lungs. It could be possible with her tiny size and the size of her heart and lungs that she would be getting to much oxygen into her system threw her lungs, and with her heart it could be pumping it to fast through her body. That could be it because if you had too much oxygen in your system then it would cause vomiting of blood. Since they had tried everything else and had to bring in specialists it could be that. He turned to the blond haired Alisha. "Make sure they keep her alive, I think I know what is happening. Also check to see if it's the oxygen level, if she is getting too much." He yelled as he headed for the exit that was away from Pepper. He was going to try a few things "JARVIS, run scans on combinations of medical elements that can slow the functioning of the heart and lungs so you can take in a little less oxygen" he said into his phone.
"Already on it Sir." was the response. Tony was going to save his Daughter, he just had to.
for thoughs of you who are wondering about Lances' mom, she died giving birth to him. That is why she isn't mentioned in this. I am not going to go into detail about it because this story is not his. So tell me what you thought? Please review and tell me what you thought. LOVE TO ALL!
