Patchwork Road
By Rey
Chapter summary: Pepper is eager to get home, but people would not guess where it is.
57. Lonesome
Being rained on by the exploded bits of a people-eating monster is not fun, at all, but Pepper can't care less about it right now.
The pearl pendant on her chest, which she has fished out of her antarctic outfit some time ago to gauge how close she is to Nalla, is now shining brightly.
She is so close already!
And soon – very, very, very soon – she will no longer be alone. She will have family to hold onto and care for; family that is not just an absent father, a dead mother, a drug-dealing brother, a busy uncle, whiny, spoiled sisters, and a bunch of good but all-too-heroing people.
Well, this particular family member is most likely an alien from another planet entirely, judging from her surroundings, but who cares about it?
Certainly not Virginia "Pepper" "Ladybug" Potts.
