yay chapter 4 is up! I am not really happy with the ending since it kinda seams like I am concluding the story but I am not. There will be more chapters, trust me. Reviews are greatly appreciated, I do not own the Avengers team they belong to marvel and Stan Lee (god bless him)

The last thing Alisha remembered was laughing and then a feral growl coming from somewhere. When she opened her eyes she was laying in her bed upstairs, her mom and dad at her side. They sky was becoming darker, but it was only the afternoon when she had opened her presents. She had a throbbing pain on the back of her head and it hert to star at anything for too long.

"Oooooowwwwww what happened? Where is everyone dad?" she asked, slowly moving her head to the side and wincing at the pain. "And what did I hit my head on"

"Alisha thank god you're ok. We were worried" Tony said looking over at the now sleeping pepper. "Tyler and Halder played a very nasty prank on you" Tony said injecting her with the serum as well as some pain killers for her head.

"What did they do?" she asked as she relaxed into the bed. "And why am I in my room?"

"Well, let me just tell you what happened ok? Tyler and Halder had placed a fake spider on a spring in the box so it would jump out at you. Lance caught them in the act and told them to stop, obviously it didn't work." Tony said glaring at the wall and pinching the brigs of his nose.

"I will have to Thank Lance for trying" Alisha said looking back up at the ceiling.

"After you blacked out, Lance changed into…well he called himself Tank. Looks like the Gama radiation from Bruce also affected his genes as well and passed it onto Lance. He kind of, broke half the house nearly killing you in the process. Shockingly Ty picked you up and carried you over to a safer spot then got his with a bolder and blacked out next to you. He is in the other room. It took Thor, Halder, and the Hulk to help calm Tank down so he could change back into Lance. I really feel sorry for Lance, he is really upset about everything." Tony said, sounding existed. "Me and the rest of the Avengers need to talk to Nick about this so we are leaving in a few minutes. You chose the perfect time to wake up" Tony said as he brushed a lock of her hair away from her forehead and kissed it.

"Looks like she finally woke up" Steve commented from the opened door. He was dressed in his regular plaid shirt and slacks, but he had his shield on his arm making him look like a Capitan America fan instead of the real thing. "How you feeling birthday girl?"

"Like I just celebrated my 21st birthday" She moaned as her head began to throb again.

"Well, at least you know how your dad feels all the time" Steve joked then looked at Tony. "Time to go Iron Man."

"Be safe dad. Love you" Alisha said as Tony got up and walked out the room. "And if anything happens I have the communicator" She said raising her right arm. Tony smiled and then he was gone. Alisha fell asleep soon after.

When she woke, her head was not throbbing anymore but she still had a head ace. Her stomach had woken her up with a growl, reminding her that she hadn't had anything to eat since yesterday morning. She slowly got up, not wanting to wake her mother, and went downstairs to the kitchen. She made herself a sandwich without realizing that someone els was in the living room right across from her. She looked up and saw the blond haired Tyler staring out the window with Halder asleep on the floor. "Out of all the wreck less jokes you have pulled on my Ty, this was by far the stupidest" Alisha commented as she walked over to him, offering him a bottle of water.

Ty looked up at her with his sky blue eyes, took the bottle of water, and returned to brooding. He was sitting on the window cill looking out at the starry sky and the ocean. This was the only window in this part of the house that was still in tac. "What do you want" Ty asked in a week voice.

Alisha jumped onto the cill next to him, dangling her feet over the edge, letting the salty ocean air blow her hair out of her face. She was so small that the cill was right where her chin was where if she was at average height for an 11 year old it would be around the chest. "To thank you for trying to save me, even though you where the one who put me in harms way in the first place. My father told me everything."

"Look we didn't know that this would happen. It's not our fault" Ty growled out.

"No you didn't know, but it was still wrong to do it. I still hit my head and blacked out because of it, even if Tank hadn't showed up it was still your fault that I was hert Ty." Alisha said firmly.

Ty glared at her. He didn't like that she knew things like this. Things that made sense to him after she said it because it was true.

Alisha jumped down from the cill and shook Hal. He woke with a start and a snort. "What? Where is the beast?" Hal growled then looked at Alisha. "Eh not too far off but not quite" Hal said with a smile.

Alisha rolled her eyes. She knew that at that moment Hal didn't mean to be nasty, she knew old habits die hard. "I have something for you Hal" she said walking over to the kitchen table and picking up a present. She then handed it to Hal.

He opened it and smiled in a regretful way. It was a picture of everyone from last summer's camping trip, the one where the Avengers had to run off half way through to save the day and then come back the last day to take the picture all bloodied, bruised, and in their uniforms. It was in a glass frame with everyone's logo in it. "Alisha, I don't know what to say"

"I knew you would miss everyone so I had the frame made and put the picture in it. It's a going away present" Alisha smiled. "I was hoping to give it to you after I finished opening my presents but seeing as how I was knocked out" She said, letting the last part hang in the air.

Hal looked torn between shame and pride. She would take what she could get.

"It's a forgiveness and going away present. So you remember there a people elsewhere who are cheering for you" She said smiling.

"What is that" Ty interrupted them as he pointed to the horizon where a bright speck was glittering.

"JARVIS, could you tell us what that is pleas" Alisha asked the computer.

"Yes mam, I believe it is a band of helicopters with missiles attached to it" JARVIS said as the one light separated into 5. "They have locked onto the house miss"

"Activate defense shields and security code 436 now" Alisha said running over to the computer on the wall.

"I am sorry but I cannot do that. The defenses for the house where taken out in the fight."

"Then wake everyone up and do what you can to buy us some time. Now JARVIS, the clocks ticking!" Alisha said as she remembered the large room that you could access in the pool.

"Will do miss"

Within 3 minutes, everyone was in the living room. Alisha was going threw everything as they headed for the pool. Jarvis was shooting bursts of flairs to cause missals to explode before they hit their target but they were also getting fired at by bullets. "Ok into the pool now" She said to everyone. "I will open the path then come up when it's opened" She said diving in. She went to the bottom where a large rock was. She placed her hand on it as an explosion happened above, everyone was in the pool now. The rock opened and she shot up. "Ok, mothers first. Mom, Jane, Susan you first."

The ladies dove under then the twins. "I can't believe this. Why doesn't that jerk come out when we need him" Lance said in frustration.

"Right now is not the time. We don't want him out right now Lance. And apologies later, this is not the time or the pace" Alisha said as she saw him open his mouth.

Lace went under and Hal fallowed shortly after. "Go Ty I have to contact Director Fury" Alisha said pointing to her wrist band.

"I won't go in until you finish ok?" Ty said holding onto the side of the pool. A big explosion went off above them and the side of the house came down over them nearly hitting them.

"Now is not the time to be a hero Tyler!" Alisha yelled at him, trying to push him towards the opening.

"The more we argue the more time we waist. Now I am not leaving you up here alone. End of discussion, now call the director" Ty yelled back at her.

Exasperated she hit the call button "Director Fury, This is Alisha Stark. The Malibu house is under missal bullet fire. The defenses are down and we are barricading ourselves in the pool shelter. Do you copy?" Alisha said as another explosion went off over head.

"This is Nick Fury, I copy. We are on your way. I will contact you when it is safe to come out"

"Copy that. And thanks for the gift" She said then put the thumbs up to Ty. She then waved at him. "I forgot my Serum! I will be right back!" She yelled as she got out of the pool.

"LEAVE IT ALISHA! IT'S NOT WORTH RISKING YOUR LIFE! YOU CAN SURVIVE WITHOUT IT FOR ONE MORENING!" Ty yelled back at her and fallowed her into the now flaming house.

"Actually, no I can't" She yelled back as they reached the kitchen. She opened a drawer with a bunch of vile of her serum and a couple of needles. She grabbed one and a needle and the hurried back to the pool. Just as they were reaching the pool, an explosion came from the front of the house and then where sent flying through the air. Tyler landed in the middle of the pool while Alisha, being so small, was sent to the other side. Her head collided with the wall and she was knocked unconscious for a few seconds. When she came too, Ty was picking her up and jumping into the pool.

Once they swam to the bottom and into the tunnel, she placed her hand on the other side of the wall to close the door. Once closed, they swam up to the room. When air hit wet skin Alisha gasped. She was so tired and strained that Ty had to drag her to the steps.

"Alisha, Tyler what took you so long? We were getting very worried" Came Peppers voice as she helped Alisha and Ty up the steps.

"We would have been here sooner if not for a addict who had to go back for some stupid medication" Ty said holding up the vile. Tia and Tera glared at him and opened their mouths to argue when Alisha held up her hand. Alisha had told none of the kids about her condition because she didn't want them to worry about her or treat her any differently than they would normally treat her. The twins had found out because she had completely forgotten to take the serum before she went to bed and they had woken up to her gasping, coughing blood, and her body spazing everywhere.

"There is a reason I had to go back Ty, but I don't want to tell you because I know how you will treat me when you find out" Alisha said, her body shaking. Pepper guided her over to where Lance was sitting. The shelter they were in was roomy enough that they could all comfortable sleep on the floor. Lance was curled up in a ball on the corner of the couch as she walls shook. Alisha scotched over to him and hugged him. "It's ok Lance. It was not your fault. Now you know what triggers it and you can ask your dad questions if you want to know more about the transformations or his experiences" Alisha said as another missile hit and the room shook.

"Still I could have killed everyone!" Lance said his voice cracking, sounding very upset as he placed his face in his hands. "I don't want to hert the people I care about" He whimpered

"You will learn to control it over time Lance. Just know the triggers and learn calming teckneaks" Alisha suggested, placing the blanked that she had over his shoulders.

The bombing continued for about 3 more hours during which time, all the people in the room had hunkered down and where waiting for the ok and Alisha had taken her serum discovering, as she had thought, her father had not yet stocked this room with it. At about 6:13am the shaking stopped. Everyone waited with bated breath and listened.

"It's 6:49am" Came Nick Fury's voice over Alisha's communicator which made everyone jump. "All clear, get out here because if I have to hear Stark bitch one more time, I am going to give him a reason to wear my eye-patch" Alisha smiled as she got up. "Ok I will go down and open the door, see if the coast is really clear and come back ok?" She said walking to the water and diving down.

She placed her hand on the rock, looked out of it, saw that the avengers where really up there and swam back. "All clear, single file please. And as usual, mothers first" They did just that thanking her as they went. Then it was just Hal, Ty, and Alisha.

"Thank you for everything Alisha. Especially this" Halder said, holding up the picture. The frame and picture itself was water resistant.

"You are welcome, it's time to go guys, come on" She said pushing them into the water. They both waited for Alisha to close the door before they swam to the shallow end. JARVIDS had already described what had happened as well as who had taken the initiative to go to the pool and who remained calm and who helped who. Most of the Avengers where surprised that Hal, Ty, and Alisha hadn't tried to kill each other in the shelter but no one argued the point, everyone was just glad to be back together.

Hugs and 'I love you's' where passed all around before it was time to say good bye to Halder and Thor.

"Thank you everyone for a fine adventure. I shall tell everyone on Asguard of what happened this day" Thor said in his booming voice, placing a hand on Halder's shoulder.

"Bye Hal my man, see you when you get buff" Ty said, holding up his hand to his best friend.

Hal smiled and grasped his best friends hand within his. "Like-wise."

"Don't over exert yourself" Lance offered

"Have fun" The twins suggested with big grins.

"Be safe" was Alisha's bit of advice. "And think before you leap"

With a good bye hug and kiss from his mother and the advice from everyone, Thor and Halder disappeared with the Teseract in hand to Asguard.

"You know something, I think I really am going to miss his derpniss" Alisha said in a matter of fact voice. Everyone laughed and agreed.

"I am so glad you are ok Alisha" Tony said kneeling down and hugging his daughter. "I was so scared when Fury told us what happened. I felt my heard hit the earth"

"I know dad. I am sorry that you where so scared, but it happened and all we can do is be thankful no one got…seriously hert" Alisha said placing her hand over the gash she had gotten when her head had hit the wall. "Now let's get to work on rebuilding, together" She said with a big smile.
