Alright, so let me know what you think. I'm still a little unsure, but we're about to get into the Avengers in a chapter or two, so I'm really excited. You're going to find out about Skye's mom, and maybe even meet her at some point. And you're finally going to see Skye use her powers, and figure out what the hell is going on with her. So let me know what you think, if you have any ideas, or conspiracies/theories. I'm excited to hear what you think, so that would be greatly appreciated.

Enjoy!

3RD POV

Tony wanted to say so many things as he looked at his daughter standing a few feet from him. She glanced at him for a moment, before looking down at the rooftop. She refused to look at him, even when he was a few feet from her.

"Skye, look at me."

Her head slowly lifted, her face coming into view. He took a step back as she looked him in the eyes, her chocolate brown eyes were now bright blue, a distant look on her face. Her skin was pale, almost white.

"Skye?" He took her face in his hands carefully, but she continued to look past him. "Skye, look at me."

"Tony?" He heard pepper behind him.

Her legs gave out from under her and Tony carefully caught her, holding her up in his arms. Skye began shivering, the air around her going cold. Tony could see their breaths in the air, the cold biting at the exposed skin of his face.

"H-he-he's falling." She gasped out, her shivers almost becoming convulsions.

"Skye, who's falling?"

She looked right at him, her eyes back to their normal color. "The sky is falling."

Her eyes rolled back into her head and she went limp in his arms. The temperature around them went back to normal. He picked her up, turning back around to Pepper, who was staring at him in shock.

"What?"

"What the hell was that?"

"I wish I knew." Tony said, looking back down at Skye.

"It looked like a rainbow."

Tony's head snapped towards Pepper, eyeing her carefully. "What did you just say?"

SKYE POV

I knew where I was before I even opened my eyes. There was an EKG beeping beside me and a TV was playing in the background. The overly sanitary scent of the hospital met my nose and I crinkled it in disgust.

"I know. The smell gets old after a while." A voice to my right said.

I cracked my eyes open, blinking against the bright lights for a second before I turned my head, seeing my dad leaning against the railing of the bed.

"Dad?" I winced at how hoarse my voice was.

"Hey sweetheart." I tried to move but found my wrists and ankles were cuffed to the rails on the bed. "I didn't want to do it, but the doctors had no other choice. You were fighting them too much. They were scared you'd end up hurting yourself more, so they had to restrain you. You kept screaming, so they had to keep sedating you."

I looked away from him, staring up at the ceiling. "What day is it?"

"June 4th. You've been out for four days." It had felt like five minutes to me. "I'm sorry this happened to you. I'm sorry a lot of things happened. Sometimes I think back, and I wonder if revealing my identity was a good idea. I've put you and Pepper in danger. You've been kidnapped, had horrible things happen to you. I just...I don't know what I was thinking."

"It's okay." I said, looking at my splinted fingers. "Sure, it was a stupid decision, but how many kids can say their parents are really a superhero."

It was silent between us for a moment. "Skye, what do you remember?"

I thought back, four days ago when I thought I was going to die. "I remember the Oracle Pavilion, Rhodey, you and Pepper, the rooftop...then I was floating. I don't know what happened, it just came on all of a sudden. I was floating through space."

"Do you remember what you said?"

I thought back, but I couldn't remember much. "You told me 'he's falling.' Then you looked at me and said 'the sky is falling.' Then you just collapsed. Do you know who was falling?"

I thought about it. I didn't even remember saying it, let alone why I did. I shook my head. "No. I-I can't..." Tears pooled in my eyes. Was I going crazy like my mom? Would he lock me up too? Various instruments started shaking, the EKG picking up as my heart rate spiked.

"Hey." He stood up, smoothing the hair away from my face. "Look at me, Skye." I turned my head so I was looking up into his soft brown eyes. "You're not crazy. You're not losing your mind. You were injected with a serum that contained god knows what, okay? JARVIS is working on trying to break down the chemical components, see if we can't figure out what we did, and then see if we can fix it. Or at least get to the point where you can control it. I'm not going to lock you up somewhere. As soon as the doctor says you can go, I'm going to take you to New York with me where I'm working on the blueprint for the tower, and you can help me. We'll get through this together."

"You're building a tower?"

"Yeah. Pepper's doing an interview on it in a few days, and when the doctors kick me out every night, I've been working on the blueprint and an improved suit for Rhodey."

"How did he get that suit anyways?"

My dad told me about what happened at the birthday party after I'd left, and after that with SHIELD and how Natalie Rushman was actually Natasha Romanov and a SHIELD agent, how he'd been dying, and built a new arc reactor, and created a new element, and became a consultant for SHIELD.

"So I pretty much missed everything exciting."

"Pretty much." He said, leaning back in his chair.

We stared at each other for a while. He had circles under his eyes, which was becoming a normal thing for him. His hair was a little disheveled and his clothes were wrinkled. It looked like he'd been here for a while. A small smile crept on to his face.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing. You just remind me of your mother is all. Well, when I first met her. Not when she went crazy." He eyed the restraints for a moment as I raised an eyebrow at him. "You know what? I'm going to go find a doctor and get you out of here."

I just shook my head in his direction as he left the room, noticing the two men outside the door. The hospital was probably crawling with police and SHIELD agents. This was my new life. My new powers and constantly being watched by SHIELD now that my dad kind of worked for them. Kind of. But my dad didn't really like working for anyone. He wasn't really a follower. Or one to take orders. Unless they were from Pepper. I was happy they were together now. I loved Pepper and I knew she'd be good for my dad. She's put up with him this far. I don't know what my dad would do without Pepper. I don't know what I'd do without Pepper. I knew this would be a start to a beautiful relationship. If my didn't mess it up.
