Vanessa woke up slowly feeling extremely groggy and her head was pounding like a drum. She slowly took in her surroundings of the hospital room and saw Pepper talking to a doctor in the door way.
"Vanessa." Pepper said in relief as she ran over to her side hugging her.
"Hey Pepper." Vanessa said as she set up once released from the hug. "Is dad ok?"
"He's fine. How are you?" Pepper asked as she built up the pillows so Vanessa could sit comfortably.
"Fine, just a headache." Vanessa replied reaching for the water, but Pepper beat her to it and handed it to her. "Thanks."
"The doctor said you'd be ok, no concussion or anything." Pepper said as she fritted around the room. She could never sit still when she was nervous.
"Good to know." Vanessa said setting the glass down.
"Said you were quite lucky." Pepper added.
"Pepper, did anyone notice?" Vanessa asked and instantly Pepper knew she was talking about her powers. Glancing at the door to make sure it was clear Pepper answered.
"No, they just saw you almost get hit. They think that you ducked out of the way in time and it was electrical discharge that knocked you unconscious." Pepper said and Vanessa let out a sigh of relief.
"Where's dad?" Vanessa asked.
"At the prison talking to the man." Pepper said. "We're going to meet him at the plane as soon as you're released."
"Ok." Vanessa said with a nod. Pepper got the release forms as soon as Vanessa was cleared and they arrived at the plane the same time Tony did.
"I'm glad you're ok kid." Tony said as he pulled Vanessa into a tight hug.
"It will take a lot more than that to take me out." Vanessa said with a smile as the boarded the plane.
"Well you are a Stark." Tony said smugly.
"Yeah, I must get it from my mom's side." Vanessa said as Tony ruffled her hair.
"You better get some rest." Pepper said handing her a blanket.
"Sounds good to me." Vanessa sat down in one of the chairs and wrapped herself up tight before falling asleep the pills for her head ache having made her groggy.
