Ok, so total credit for one of my scenes goes to Raven6224, because she is amazing and an incredible talented author. I hope you enjoy!

TEN

Steve stares at the screen for a long moment, barely moving and almost not breathing. "Please tell me you're joking," He says finally, voice incredibly low.

Tony shakes his head, swallowing. "HYDRA was going to make our own children destroy us."

Steve nods, thinking. "Daniel knew," He says finally. "And apparently so did James. Why wouldn't they tell their leader?"

Tony says nothing. "This changes everything." He glances at Steve. "Ross would throw them into the Raft. He wouldn't care that they're our kids." He shakes his head, a hand running through his hair. "I can't give them those kids."

Steve nods. "We'll move to Wakanda. T'Challa is taking care of us… It's probably the only place in the world they'll be safe."

"What about Jinx?"

He releases a breath. "That depends on what we're dealing with. Either way, they're our responsibility now."

...

Daniel leans back against the chair, balancing on the back two legs and hands behind his head, eyes shut as he relaxes. The door opens, and without moving he asks, "Back already, spangles? I doubt Stark found what you were looking for, but surely you're smart enough to realize we need to go free."

"Spangles is gone, but I'll leave our senior citizen a message," Stark says, and Daniel's legs fall as he slams the chair to the ground, eyes wide as he stares.

"What are you doing here?" He demands, albeit a little shakily.

"Well, it is my building," He snarks, leaning against the wall and just studying the teen.

Daniel watches him, Iron Man, unable to comprehend what he wants. "I mean here,"

He looks around lazily. "Well, you are about 50% of me, so I figure I own at least half of you." He shrugs a shoulder. "Might as well figure you out. So tell me," He levels him with a look. "What does HYDRA really want from us?"

…

I bounce my leg as I wait in the Avenger's living room- well, one of them. It looks like Tony's section, because there aren't any cameras like there are everywhere else, but otherwise there's nothing.

"Relax," James murmurs, eyes on the door. I nod once right as the door opens, and we all stare as Rogers and Stark stop in front of us. No one says anything for a long moment…

"I'm done playing," Rogers finally breaks the silence. "I'm done trying to be nice and give you a chance to trust us. If we're going to protect you, we need answers, and without that Ross will throw you in prison no matter what."

I tilt my head. "You think you're in a position to make demands?"

"Enough," He snaps, making me tense as he focuses on me. "I told you, I'm done. Circumstances have changed, and we need answers before you all go to prison."

I swallow. "Raft?"

He nods. "Who is Jinx?"

I glance at James. "She runs HYDRA," I say finally. "She's Loki's daughter."

"Loki has a daughter?" Stark cuts in.

I nod. "She's worse than Loki. She's behind the weapons, the plans- she wants to bring Loki back and help him rule the world."

Tony shakes his head. "This is insane… How'd she know to create you?"

I shake my head. "I don't know."

Rogers stares at me for a long moment before nodding. "We need to discuss living arrangements-"

"Living arrangements?" I interrupt, frowning as Daniel and James tense. "Who said anything about living arrangements?"

Stark frowns. "Your brother didn't tell you?" At my blank expression he gently presses. "They made you with our DNA. You're our kids."

I don't think.

I turn and punch my brother in the face.

Hard.
