Chapter one

No ones POV

Avi sat at the table in the kitchen. She had already had about six sandwiches and now was eating a seventh. Jan was watching her eat. "How do you eat so much?" she asked, shaking her head.

Avi shrugged, "when I was six I was supposed to have about three thousand calories a day, not sure how many I need now. Some large number."

Having told the rest of the Avengers part of her story, (they thought that was all of it muhahaha) they already knew that she was technically a genetic freak, so that was out of the way. This was Avi's first night at the manor and she had just gotten out of the shower. She was in the sweats and short sleeve T-shirt that they had given her. The sweats were a deep green and the T-shirt was a white one showing an American themed peace sign. Avi's deep brown hair glinted with blonde and red strands, and reached her shoulders, unevenly and barely. She was tall, about 5 feet 7 inches, and according to her, she was about 16 years old. Her eyes were a deep green, and she was slightly tanned, proving her time in the sun in the air. If you looked closely, you could see light freckles. "So why do you think Tin Can invited me to stay?" Avi asked before taking a bite of her sandwich.

Jan looked surprised, "you knew that Tony is Iron Man? How?"

Avi looked sheepish, "I didn't tell you guys that I pick up on and control vibrations did I?"

When Jan shook her head no, Avi continued "well I kinda can tell different vibrations from different people, like one person has a different vibration pattern than some one else, even disguises and doppelgangers (doubles) can't confuse me. And I can use those vibrations in the air to send, well, blasts I guess, of pure vibrations, or sound, at someone, and I can just use simple motions, say a snap of my fingers, to control them and use them to hurt someone or something. But I can use the vibrations, say if someone has a broken bone, I can sense that their vibrations are off and fix it, by mending the broken bone in an instant and so fixing the persons vibrations. I can pick up on emotions sometimes too."

Jan stared at her.

"What? I just forgot to tell you guys, okay? Not my fault the scientists made it so I keep mutating and stuff." With a reproachful look Avi finished off the rest of her sandwich.

Now Jan spoke, "It just surprised me what you say you can do. Would you mind showing me?"

Avi shrugged, and looked at a vase sitting on a counter. It was useless, Jan really didn't know why they had these things anyway, but Avi gestured with her hand and the vase flew towards her, like it had been pushed or thrown. She caught it, and sat it on her open palm. Then she closed her hand into a fist, and the vase floated out of her hand a little, so as not to be caught in her hand, and shattered, just like that, the vase broke into little pieces. The pieces didn't fall to the floor though, Avi kept them floating there, and when she opened and closed her hand again, the vase reformed perfectly. Not a piece was out of place and it shined like new.

Jan's mouth was hanging open, and Avi gave her a look that said 'that was easy, what are you so shocked about?' and placed the vase back on the counter. "I think that you need to show that to Tony and the others." Was all she said. Avi shrugged and followed Jan to find the other avengers and show them her talent.

Hawkeye wasn't impressed, and gave her a look that said 'so?'. Hank looked at Avi more intently, but she returned the look and her body language showed that she wasn't pleased to be looked at like an experiment. Hulk wouldn't even talk to them, not that they minded, and T'Challa just seemed to think about it for a minute. But then, that was all one ever got out of him. The Black Widow wasn't available, as she was out on a mission. Captain America looked a little surprised and blinked at Avi for a minute before saying "okay". Tony just put his head down on his desk and said "great. Something else to worry about." To which Avi responded, "I may be something to worry about but you only have your self to blame genius." Tony glared at her and then Jan quickly left with Avi before Tony started to pick a fight. Thor was totally unimpressed. Later, after Avi had gone to bed, Jan and Tony were joined by Captain America to discuss her.

"She may need to go to the X-men. To be trained and all that. Then she could come back if she wanted to or she could join them." Tony said.

"Um, she has a serious background, and the fact that she trusted us and you want to ship her off to the X-men shows that you have no idea what she's like Tony. I have only known her for about half a day and she showed spirit, and I think that if you try to get her to go away you will just prove to her that no one can be trusted and I have no doubt she will become another enemy. And if she gets really mad, I have no clue how we would defeat her." Jan said.

Tony was quiet for a moment then asked, "What do you think Cap?"

Captain America hesitated, then said, "I agree with Jan, I think that while she may need training, there is no reason to uproot her and send her away when she has barely begun to trust us. Besides, she seems to have pretty good control over her power, we could call up the Prof. and get him to check her out, make sure she has control before we decide anything else. Plus, if she didn't mention this to us, she may have other abilities that she kept hidden. The Prof. can help us understand all of what she can do."

Tony was quiet then said, "Alright, I will call Charles in the morning."

None of them realized that a lean shape was listening in the hallway, and slowly crept back to her room before the avengers exited and went to bed.
