I do not own the Avengers or any property of Marvel. This story is rated Teen for some language and violence. Please read the end note, there is important info in it.
All of us were sitting on Mr. Starks extremely comfortable couches, careful not to get any dirt on them. Most of the Avengers were here too. There was Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, Clint Barton, Steve Rodgers, Thor, Pepper Stark, and Darcy Lewis. We'd been in the building for about 15 minutes, 15 long and uncomfortable minutes. All of us were just as uncomfortable as we could tell they were.
"Friend Stark it is not possible. My children and niece died in a fire on Asgard, as did their mother. Please don't make me relive this for a jest."
I shared a look with Marco and Helena, both of them looked extremely pale and Helena looked like she was going to pass out. Marco slowly wrapped his letterman's jacket around Helena pointy shoulders. His cobalt eyes looked to mine in concern, my head dropped. Things weren't going so well, time to butt in.
"Excuse me, but if you're going to decide whether we're telling the truth or not, don't you think you should ask what evidence we have, Anthony Stark."
Everyone looked at me, I lifted my head to meet their gazes full on. A smirk played on my lips when I saw their confused faces.
"Chase"
"Got it." Chase threw me a steel plated flash drive. I held it in my hand making sure the Avengers could see it.
"This is all the evidence you'll hopefully need."
Stark came over and yanked the flash drive out of my hand before asking Jarvis to run it. Who was Jarvis?
"Sir the children are telling the truth, it seems S.H.I.E.L.D. has secretly been stealing you children to use as agents. I dug into the base code and saw the phrase 'the house of night' repeated multiple times."
Stark ran his finger threw his messy brown hair before putting his hand on his wife's petite shoulder. Her eyes held back tears as she looked at us. Her eyes landed on Chase and the tears couldn't be held back any longer.
"Chase…"
Chase looked over at her before running and giving her a giant hug.
"Momma…"
Tony came around and hugged his wife and their rediscovered son.
"They said we lost you during birth… That you had a heart condition and you died that night. They said we couldn't look at you afterwards because it might send me into shock. I'm so sorry my baby… I should have fought to see you, then maybe I wouldn't have missed your whole childhood."
Tears ran down her cheeks and Tony handed her some tissues and rubbed her shoulders. Chase wouldn't let go of her and I couldn't blame him.
Next Mr. Rodgers stepped up, not knowing which one of us was his. Carol tackled him from behind, laying on his chest in the middle of the floor. His arms wrapped around her protectively. Barton walked around the two and stood in front of Yvette, arms crossed defensively over his chest.
"Looking at something old man?" Yvette asked not opening her eyes from her sleep like position.
"You have your mother's hair."
At this one of her eyes peeked open, she was interested. He sat next to her and they talked for a while before she rested her on his shoulder while he messed with her hair.
The wonder twins had immediately started talking science with Banner while he marveled at them. Nicolette learned quickly that he was the timid one not her mother.
Then there was Thor…Dad.
He was sitting in a big recliner trying to make sense of what was happening. I don't blame him at this point. He had long blonde hair just like in the dreams and giant blue eyes that let people see into his soul. That and the trademark hammer helped too. Pushing myself off the plush couch, I tiptoed over to him, trying not to bring too much attention to myself. He locked up as I approached. I plopped to floor next to the oatmeal colored chair and leaned my head on the side. His hand snaked down and slowly played with my hair.
"If only your mother were here we…"
"But she isn't and I know it's sad but we have to get over it. There is nothing we can do now, it is one thing to live in the past but another to rebuke the present. It's a gift."
He nodded before scooping me up a setting me in his lap. I laid my head down on his chest and listened to his heat beat. It was a strong beat, deep like a lion's roar. So I sat there listening to his heart beat and tales about my mother.
17 minutes later.
"Sir we have an emergency!"
"What is it Jarvis?"
"Shield sir, they've already gained entrance to the elevator, should I stop it sir?"
"YES!" We all shouted. Not believing he even needed to ask that question.
Tony ran to a panel in the wall, pulling up security camera footage. Hand along with about 15 other agents were in the elevator. When Hand noticed the camera she shot it, making the feed go dark. Me and the rest of the gang started going for our weapons before Father motioned for us to stop.
"We need not fight here today. Let me bring you to Asgard, they will be unable to reach us there."
I nodded quickly liking that idea very much. That was before Stark had to talk.
"What happens when none of us are here, they have free reign of everything in the tower! Better idea how about I stay here and you guys go to Asgard."
Chase put up an instant fight but assuredly quieted down when I put my hand on his shoulder.
"Are you sure friend?"
"Very now get them out of here."
Tony hustled everyone including every other parent besides himself close to Thor. He gave Pepper a quick kiss before going off to erase the camera footage and disk drive.
A tingly feeling started building in my bones, and no matter how I tried it wouldn't stop, everyone expect Father looked like they had the same problem.
"Heimdal, open the bifrost."
And like that Stark and the tower disappeared from view as we raced between the stars. The view was amazing…enchanting. And as suddenly as we left we arrived somewhere else.
As we came to a stop I fell to my knees off balance and very, very dizzy. My vision swirled as I tried to keep my empty stomach down. My head throbbed but my vision slowly focused. Under my feet was a golden floor and I could hear my father talking with someone before helping me to my feet. I held onto his thick arm trying not to tip over. I looked over at the Gang to see everyone having the same problem. Yvette and Carol were still laying on the floor and Chase was sitting against a step. The Avengers seemed to have a slight problem but nothing too severe.
Finally I was able to let go of my Father's arm and stand straight up. My blue eyes scanned the surrounded area, however when a high pitch whinny echoed through, I still went for the gun tucked in my jeans. The metal was cold against my skin but it felt good. Everyone else had went for their weapons as well but my father held up his hand.
"Relax children, it is just my brother, Loki and his bride Sif."
Helena perked up at this her emerald eyes brightening. Brushing off her midnight colored pants. She rushed up and ran over to the origin of the sound.
HELENA's POV
I ran over my heart leaping in my chest. A man got off his black horse, his gold armor sparkling in the light. He helped down a woman, her brownish hair tied up in a braid, her hazel eyes staring at him in hope. She got down and stood next to her husband, conversing with him.
"Mom…Dad?"
They just turned their heads towards my voice as I barreled toward them. I embraced my mom, burying my head in her dress, tears rolling off cheeks. My tears left dark trails down her grey and Royal blue robes. I could feel her head leaning on top of mine, her fingers caressing my scalp. A could feel another hand on my back, lovingly rubbing circles.
"My child, oh how I've missed you. We thought you dead, or else we would have searched the realms for you."
"Momma…"
"Could you ever forgive us Helena?"
I leaned back and wiped away my tears. A smile graced the face of a mother before she embraced me in another hug.
"I believe it is my turn to suffocate our daughter, Sif."
She released me. I turned around to see my Father. He was tall, lean, and had the blackest hair and greenest eyes I've ever seen. His eyes held I love I'd never seen before. He wrapped me up in his long arms and held me close to his chest.
"Helena, sweet Helena, you've come home to us."
I smiled.
Home was something I never had before. I think I was going to like having one.
