hey everyone just finished this one and I have to say i should probably be writing the essay I have due on thursday but I'm already halfway done and I had a bout of writers block so instead I wrote this. Also wanted to say I started a series of one shots to go with this story. It's called Time Traveling Uncomplicated. It's all going to be reader suggestions or requests so if you have anything you want to see comment or message me. Let me know what you think Enjoy :)
"Hey Doll I missed you."
"Bucky?" I said not taking my eyes off of him. He looked exactly like the last time I saw him. He was wearing the blue pea coat he wore on missions with the dark grey pants and dark brown boots. His chestnut brown hair neatly combed and his gorgeous grey blue eyes looking straight at me.
He gave me a small smile and started walking towards me. I started taking a step back.
"No, you're not real." I said shivering.
"Doll what are you talking about? I'm right here." He said.
"You can't be here. You died." I said.
"Nora I'm right here babydoll. We're together again." He said reaching for my hand. "It's okay." He gently took my hand in his and reached up with his other hand to tuck a lock of hair behind my ear. It felt real, he was real. I wrapped my arms around his waist and hugged him, burying my face in his chest.
"I'm sorry." I sobbed.
"Sh, hey you have nothing to be sorry about. We're together again that's all that matters Doll. I love you so much." He said kissing the top of my head.
"I love you too." I said kissing him.
"Wake up. Nora you must wake up. Nora!" I heard echoes in the distance. No I can't wake up.
"Come on Doll, let's find a way out of here." Bucky said holding my hand and leading me further down the cave. At that instant there was a glowing form in front of us and the time stone appeared looking just like me.
"Nora, you have to wake up." It said.
"No, this is real. Bucky's here." I said.
"You know it's not real. You know he's gone, he fell off that train. This is just a dream." Aya said.
"I don't care. It feels real and it feels right. I'm not leaving." I said.
"Nora, I know you've been through a lot, I know how much you miss Steve and Bucky but this isn't real. It's a dream. Bucky's gone." Aya said.
"But this could be real. I can stay here, live the remainder of my life with him." I said looking at Bucky who hugged me and kissed my temple.
"He wouldn't have wanted this for you. You still have a life. You have people who love you and care about you. You have people who depend on you and need you. Your friends are in danger and you're the only one that can save them. Nora what would he have done?" Aya said looking at Bucky.
He would've done the right thing no matter. "I'm sorry." I told Aya. I turned around and pulled Bucky into a kiss. I ended it and let go of him. "Do it." I told Aya. She came forward and put two fingers on my forehead making everything around us fade away before everything went dark.
I woke up gasping for air. I looked around and Sif, Hogun, Fandrall, and Volstagg were unconscious on the ground. I heard grunts and hits of metal against metal.
I looked outside and saw Thor fighting with some troll people. He was holding them back but he was severely outnumbered. I put up a force field around him when I saw one of them aim a crossbow at him.
"What the hell is going on?" I yelled as I pushed them back.
"The fog we walked into causes hallucinations. Shows us our hearts desires." He said swinging mjolnir at one of them.
"I kind of figured I meant where did these guys come from?" I said pulling out a few knives and throwing them at three of the trolls coming at me.
"They're the invaders trying to take over Niflheim that Nighug was defending the realm from. It thought we were with them." He said punching one of them.
"We need to end this. Were outnumbered and everyone else is unconscious." I said "It might be time to put the hammer down."
"That's it." He said. "Put up a shield and whatever happens do not let it fall."
"I don't like where this is going" I said.
"Do not worry this isn't the first time I do this." He said knocking someone trying to sneak up on him.
"You better be right." I said putting up the force field around me. Thor spun the hammer gathering lightning around it before jumping up in the air and the force field.
It was hard to keep the shield up, for a second I thought it was going to collapse by the force of the hit. I kept my hands up almost physically holding it up. The shield thankfully held up long enough to deflect the blast knocking everyone out and even enough to blow the fog away.
Finally I couldn't hold it up anymore, the force field gave out and I fell down on my knees. I was panting, and completely drained from keeping the shield up that long against that force. Thor came over and helped me up.
"It worked?" I asked.
"Aye, it did more than that." He said looking over to where Sif and the others were starting to wake up.
"Did we miss all the fun?" Fandrall greeted.
"Just a bit." I said.
"Was that all of them?" SIf asked.
"It appears so." Thor answered.
"Then victory is ours." Volstagg said happily.
"Not quite." Hogun said looking at something behind us.
I turned around and saw Nighug looking down at us.
"Nice dragon," I said softly. It let out a loud roar making the ground shake. It moved closer to us. Thor tried pushing me back but I stayed where I was standing. "I don't think it's trying to hurt us." I said.
Nighug lowered its head to the ground and moved an arm closer to us. For a second I thought it was trying to crush us but it stopped a few feet away. I was confused. I looked toward it's arm and saw something reflecting light. I walked closer to get a better look. There was an arrow sticking out form under it's claw. Poor dragon that must've been bothering it. I moved to get closer and see it how deep it was. It was very small cut but it must not have been able to reach it. I carefully grabbed the arrow and pulled it out,
Nighug let out a loud high pitched screech but didn't hurt us. Instead it moved it's head closer and huffed a bit. I gently pet it's nose and stuck it's tongue out.
"Feeling better buddy." I said smiling. It responded by licking me. "I'll take that as a yes."
"Dragons are supposed to be vicious creatures." Fandral said.
"They are but Lady Nora must have earned it's loyalty." Hogun said.
Nighug lifted it's arm and scratched it's neck before moving it's hand back to me. I looked at it and there was something on it's claw.
I took it out of its claw and saw that it was some sort of scale. Some sort of fog started forming around Nighug and it vanished. Instead a smaller version of the giant dragon appeared and flew onto my shoulder. It wrapped itself around my neck before muzzling my cheek.
"Aren't you a cute little guy." I said petting it.
"I've never seen a dragon do that." Volstagg said.
"I didn't know they could do that." Sif said. "As entertaining as this may be, It is time to return home."
"Oh right." Thor said.
I moved my hand to gently move the small dragon off my shoulder. "Time for us to go buddy. Thank you for the gift." I said petting its head. It transformed back into it's giant form before flying away.
"Heimdall, open the Bifrost." Thor yelled up to the sky. A circle of light surrounded us before we flew up into the sky. Before we knew it we were back in the Aesir.
"I trust your trip was successful." Heimdall greeted.
"It went well." I said.
"Says the girl who befriended a dragon." Sif added.
"I'm still surprised it didn't try to eat you alive." Volstagg said with a chuckle.
"So am I, I wasn't expecting a hug, let alone a gift." I said looking at the scale.
"That is surprising, dragon scales are very rare and precious items. You could probably sell it for a king's ransom." Fandrall said looking at it.
"I'm not selling it, it's rude to give away gifts especially something so meaningful." I said.
"We shall go tell father of our victory." Thor said. Everyone followed after him as we got on a horse back to the palace.
Odin took the news very well. The forced had been dispatched to the other worlds and were doing well. I was told that if everything remained as it was at the moment then I could go back to earth until the next time.
We had a feast to celebrate our success in Niflheim. It was kind of small since it was a very last minute thing but it was still very crowded.
We laughed at storied that were told. Then Thor and Volstagg decided to have a drinking contest.
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" I told Thor.
"This is a challenge of men, to test our worth." Thor said.
"Are you saying women can't drink?" I said with a raised eyebrow.
"No ladies can drink, they just can't drink as much." Fandrall added.
"Want to bet?" I said.
"Is that a challenge I hear?" Thor said happily with a joyful gleam in his eyes.
"Okay, A drinking contest to see who's shall be the last man," Fandrall said before adding, "Or woman standing. Thor against Lady Nora."
"If Thor wins I get the dragon scale that was gifted to you by Nighug." Fandral said.
"Okay, but if I win you have to spend and entire day doing mine and Sif's bidding." I said.
"That sounds manageable." Fandrall said.
"While dressed as a woman." I added that made the entire room busrt out in laughter.
"I accept your bet, Lady Nora." Fandral said as we shook hands.
"The rules are as follows. You will each drink the same amount of a drink we shall choose. You will drink at the same time until one of you gives up or falls." Volsatgg said.
"Nora," Sif said.
"I know you don't agree…" I started.
"You are a mighty warrior of Asgard, you can accomplish the impossible. I have seen you do it myself. Now outdrink Thor so I can see that oaf do my bidding a pink dress." Sif said giving me her version of a pep talk.
"I will." I said nodding.
"Gentlemen and Ladies, take a seat." Fandral said as we sat down. "For the first round, Lady Nora, why don't you choose the drinks?" He said.
"Give me a minute." I said grabbing two beer mugs. I filled them each up with beer and grabbed two shots of something that looked like and smelled like whiskey.
I went back to the table and set them down. "Bottoms up." I said before dunking my shot in the mug and chugging it down. When I put my glass down everyone just stared at me. Thor just busted out laughing.
"Finally a worthy challenger!" he said happily before following my lead and dunked his shot and chugged. Instead of placing his glass on the table be threw it on the ground and cried out, "Another!"
We took a few more rounds with the same drink before finally we started doing straight shots.
By the fifth shot we were making small talk. Neither of us was giving in even though I was positive we were both starting to sway a bit.
"May I ask a question?" Thor managed to slur.
"You just did." I answered.
"May I ask another?" he slurred even more.
"You just did but go ahead." I said taking another shot just like Thor just had.
"You're family name is Stark is it not?" Thor asked.
"It is." I said a bit skeptical about why he was asking.
"And you said your father almost perished during Loki's invasion?" Thor said seriously.
"I did." I answered really not liking where this was going.
"I fought alongside a warrior, the Man of Iron, his family name was also Stark. Is he your father?" Thor asked.
I didn't know how to answer that so instead I kept quiet.
"You two are remarkably similar. Same smile and look in your eyes but what really stuck out was your personality." Thor said.
"You can't tell anyone." I said.
"The man of Iron has no children, at least not according to SHIELD and him. When the captain asked he denied it. You have been coming to Asgard for centuries but you do not age and your father is from Midgard so how is this possible?"
"I can't answer that question, you'll have to ask your father." I answered.
"Why does no one know of your existence?" Thor asked.
"My father has a lot of enemies on Earth it was safer for me to be kept a secret." I explained.
"But your father is a mighty warrior, he is more than capable of protecting you."
"He can but no one can know I exist." I said.
"Why not,
"Because my soul mate can't know I'm alive." I said lifting up my sleeve and showing him Steve's name. That made Thor stand up shocked but he was so drunk he fell out of his seat.
"Nora wins!" Sif said happily. "Be prepared to polish all my sword and armor milady." She taunted. Sif was definitely drunk, she was always so serious it was hard to get her to lay back and relax. It was a bit weird to see her smile and laugh so much. She had a good sense of humor once you get past the tough front she puts up. Thor was knocked out. If I'm lucky he won't remember this conversation tomorrow.
The Next Day-
I woke up when the light came through my room's window. My head was killing me. I got up and took a quick bath before putting on a dress Frigga had given me. Apparently I had an assigned room in the palace. I'd been here enough times I got assigned one. I had a full wardrobe as well. I picked out a simple mauve long dress. It was simple. There was a darker colored sash of the same color that gave it a good contrast. I wore some gladiator sandals before heading out of the room. Unlucky for me Thor was right outside my door waiting for me.
"Morning, How's your head?" I asked.
"You're the man of Iron's daughter and the captain is your soulmate." He said.
"Oh shit." I said. "You can't tell anyone. You weren't supposed to find out."
"Why not? I thought we were friends. I never kept secrets from you." Thor said sounding a bit upset.
"I want to tell you everything but I can't, Odin made me keep it a secret for a reason." I complained.
"Father knew?" he said.
"You really think he would've granted a mortal Asgardian citizenship without a good reason?" I said.
"We must speak to him at once." Thor said.
"I'll leave you to that." I said trying to sneak off but he stopped me.
"You're coming as well."
"Oh boy" the allfather was going to be pissed.
We walked over to the throne room and the guards bowed and opened the door.
"Lady Nora, I was just about to call for you." Odin said.
"Nora is the Man of Iron's daughter and she's been showing up in Asgard for over a century without aging." Thor blurted out. Odin turned to glare at me.
"I beat him in a drinking contest." I said explaining how he found out.
"Lady Nora is the host of the time stone. She appeared on Asgard a century ago because she travels through time." Odin said simply.
"The time stone? An infinity stone?" he said shocked
"Yup, been dealing with that for two years." I said.
"You never said anything." Thor said.
"Not by choice buddy." I answered.
"No one can know, which is why you can't remember any of this." Frigga said. "I shall prepare a potion so you don't remember this."
"I do not understand, why can't I know of this." Thor asked.
"Because you're directly involved with everything the stone is having me avoid." I said. "I've been jumping through time in no particular order. I have to make sure that I don't give out knowledge that could alter decisions people have to make. The same reason my dad doesn't know about the time jumps and Steve doesn't know I'm alive."
"Then I just won't tell anyone." Thor said.
"We can't take that chance." I said
"It'll take the day to prepare." Frigga said.
"Until then, Lady Nora stay with Thor and make sure he doesn't tell anyone." Odin said.
"Will do. Come on Thor, I could really use some breakfast and I'm sure you have questions." I said.
"You're going to answer them?" Thor said.
"Well you're going to forget this at the end of the day so ask away." I answered.
"How did this start?" he asked.
"It was kind of a surprise. Some random lady gave me a bracelet, I was in a room when super collider malfunctioned and then I was in 1943. It sucked but it got better then it got worse." I said.
"1943, that was before the Captain was frozen." Thor said.
"That where I met my soul mates."
"Soul mates?" Thor said putting emphasis on the plural.
I took off the holosleeves I had slipped on that morning and showed him Bucky and Steve's names.
"Steve and Bucky, I met them in 1943. I also met my grandfather who died before I was born. I found it a bit ironic that dad hated him considering he's a carbon copy of the guy." I said chuckling.
"Your father does have quite the character."
"It's okay Thor, you can say it." I said.
"He is very… confident." Thor said pausing to find the right word.
"He can be a bit much. Has a bit of an ego but he's genuinely a good person once you get to know him." I said.
"It does take some time to get to that understanding." He said.
"You're kind of the same. When I first met you, you were very full of yourself. I even told Loki that but you grew out of it." I said laughing a bit.
'What's so funny?" he asked.
"You're a Norse demi god that's over a thousand years old and I just said I watched you grow out of it. It's hard to believe that this is what my life has come to."
"It is hard to believe. If you had told me years ago I would become Earth's protector and that I would have fallen in love with a mortal I would have called you mad." He said.
"You're in love?" I said a bit surprised.
"I am. Her name is Jane Foster." He said with a smile.
"Wait, Jane Foster, the Astro physicist?" I said shocked.
"Yes you know her?"
"I do, I met her a few years ago while I was still in school. I was helping Erik Selvig with one of his projects one summer and Jane came to help as well." I said.
"Do you know how she is doing?" Thor asked.
"I haven't talked to her in years. Last I heard she moved to London and works at the university there." I said.
"I wished to see her when I was last in Midgard but I had responsibilities I could not neglect." He said sadly.
"I figured you were dealing with an alien Invasion and bringing your brother back home. It's understandable. I don't know if I have her number but I do have her address. If you want to maybe write her a letter I could mail it for you." I offered.
"You would do that?"
"Of course got to keep love alive. You're lucky you can still be with Jane. I on the other hand have to stay away from Steve and he just woke up seventy years ahead of his time and everyone he knew is either dead or getting there." I said.
"You miss him." Thor said.
"Every damn day." I answered.
"He's a great man. Good leader and warrior." Thor said.
"He is, has a way with people that just makes them believe in fighting the good fight."
"Have you tried going to see him?"
"I did, when I found out he was alive I was on a plane to Afghanistan. As soon as I landed I tried to go back to New York. The stone froze everyone around me and sent me a couple years into the future. Got lectured by my dad saw him and then got sent back. I'm not allowed to be near him. Apparently there are things he has to go through before we can be together again." I said sadly.
"I'm sorry."
"It is what it is." I said sadly.
"Father disapproved of my relationship with Jane because she is mortal. Says its destined to fail." He said sadly.
"What do you think?"
"I think that I still want to be with her and take things as they may come."
"Then do what you feel is right. Love is uncertainty. Even with soulmates you can never tell how things would turn out. My dad thinks I think that my mom was his soulmate but I know she wasn't. He loved her and he thought that he would spend the rest of her life but life had other plans. I thought Steve was going to die in that plane crash and he got unfrozen seventy years in the past. No one can guarantee you tomorrow. If it works out between you and Jane then great. If it doesn't then at least you gave it a shot."
"You're amazingly optimistic for someone who's been through as much as you have." Thor said.
"It's easier to give advice than follow it." I said.
"I saw her when we were in Niflheim. We were together and happy." He said smiling.
"I saw Bucky. I didn't want to leave."
"Why did you?"
"I almost killed myself after I returned home from 1945. After I lost Steve nothing made sense anymore. I didn't see the point of going through life without them. I tried jumping off a building, drug overdose, slitting my wrists. Nothing worked. I got low, did some things I regret until finally I realized that while I didn't have him I still had a lot of people that cared about me and that depended on me. I couldn't leave them. The stone, Aya, reminded me of that. That's how I snapped out of it." I answered.
That's when I realized how long we had been talking. The sun was about to set and Frigga was walking toward us.
"I have finished preparing the potion." She said handing Thor a bottle. "Drink all of it and you shall forget anything you learned today."
"Is this really necessary?" He asked again.
"It is, don't worry I have a feeling you'll find out about all of this eventually. Now bottom's up." I said.
Thor took off the cap and drank the potion. He stood there quietly and stared off into space until finally he snapped out of it. "Forgive me I got lost in thought. You were saying?"
"Lady Nora was just saying goodbye. She must return to Midgard. She has responsibilities to attend too." Frigga said.
"Ahh, that is unfortunate. You shall be missed Nora." Thor said.
"It is but don't worry I'm sure I'll be back soon. There is still a lot that had to be done to restore peace right?"
"That there is. There are still many battles to be fought and many victories to celebrate. Until next time old friend. Safe travels.
"Take Care of yourself Thor." I said before he walked away.
"So I'm going back home?" I asked Frigga
"Yes, Everything seems to be under control for the time being. You will be called back if needed." Frigga said.
"Okay, I'll go get my things and head to the Aesir." I said.
One short carriage ride later I was back at the ranch. I had been gone for three days but it felt like it had been longer.
I walked back inside and Axl tackled me.
"Oh, hey buddy. You okay?" I said petting him and looking him over. Axl kept sniffing me and rubbing himself against me probably doing the same thing. I went to check if he still had food and water. He still had plenty of both. That's good. I went upstairs to get ready for bed. I stopped by the study and placed the dragon scale on one of the shelves. I was going to find something to display it properly later. I went to my room and plugged in my phone. I had a missed call from Dad and I returned the call right away before he thought I joined the army again.
Instead of picking up the TV in my room turned on and dad's face showed up.
"You know the green button is to answer the call right?" he said.
"I know just locked myself in the study and lost track of time." I said.
"What are you working on?" He asked.
"I'm reviewing for boards. I have two weeks to get ready. I wanted to ask for a favor." I said.
"What's up?" He asked looking a bit concerned.
"I was thinking of remodeling the house and I wanted to start with the lab and work my way up, maybe even convert the attic into a game room or another room." I said.
"What brought this on? Don't have enough rooms as is?" he said.
"Haha very funny. I asked Wren to move in after his time's up." I said.
"You what? That's a big step, are you sure?" He said.
"Dad we're not a couple. We're just friends that are going to be housemates. This house is huge for me to live in it alone. Chances are that even if Wren moves in I'd probably never see him. I also wanted to set up a room for Connor along with a playroom or something. Jess and Sam are going to need a break at some point and I thought that I could take over parenting for a weekend every once in a while and lend a hand." I said.
"You sound so grown up." Dad said.
"Not to mention the wall paper is a bit old. I think we should make this place a bit more modern. Upgrade the kitchen as well." I said.
"Sounds like you should tear the place down and start from scratch."
"I think that's a bit much. I was just thinking of doing everything slowly, you know one room at a time." I said.
"You could do that or you could take some time off, come visit your old man in New York and I'll have a crew do all the remodeling while you're gone so you come home to a new place. Pepper's going to be gone all of next month dealing with a merger. You can finally check out the sights." Dad offered.
"I don't know dad, don't you think it's a bit risky?" I said.
"Nora it's New York, it's easy to blend in with the crowds and how bad would it be if they found out?" He said saying that last part pretty fast.
"Something on your mind?" I said not liking where this conversation was going.
"You know the main reason I kept you a secret was to give you a normal life and keep you safe but you're an adult now, I was thinking it might be time to introduce you to the world starting with maybe Pepper." He said.
"Dad…" I said. "I don't think I'm ready for that. I've seen what it's like for you when you're out and about. You're under a microscope constantly. You can't even sneeze without it showing up on a magazine cover. I don't want that."
"It's not easy but I have an entire PR team that could handle it. We'd figure it out. Come on Nora, let me show the world how amazing my daughter is." Dad said. "Can you just think about it? Please?"
"I'll think about it." I said trying to placate him. At least for now.
"That's a no." He said sighing.
"Dad going public would change everything. Not just for you and me but for everyone we know. You're going to have to be criticized for keeping me hidden for over twenty years. Jess, Sam, and Wren would be bugged by the media just for knowing me. My godson would have to grow up under the spotlight as well." I said. "Its not an easy decision."
"But it could be a good thing too. We wouldn't have to hide every time we got together. I could see you more than twice a year. Hell you could even move into the tower." He said.
"We've never lived together. Chances are we'd be at each other's throats after three days."
"We'd be on separate floors." He said.
"Dad…"
"Nora just think about it. I own a penthouse a couple of blocks away from the tower stay the month give it a test run. At the end of the month if you're still not up for it, then we don't go through with it." Dad offered.
"Dad I have boards in two weeks here in Dallas." I argued.
"You can take them here in New York. I looked it up and they have an exam session in three weeks. That's an extra week to study plus you'll get unlimited access to the labs at the tower." He said. "Just take the night and sleep on it. No pressure."
Why is it that whenever someone says no pressure, the pressure just increases?
"I'll think about it but I'm not promising anything." I said.
"I'm taking that as a yes. Yay!" He said in childish glee.
"That's a definite maybe."
"It's a yes, got to go get things ready. Call you tomorrow byeeee" He said quickly so I wouldn't have a chance to argue.
I took a deep breath. This is a horrible idea.
I looked through my contacts on Skype and turns out that Wren was online. That's weird and then an incoming call from him came on.
"He lives!" I greeted.
"Very funny. I called you when I landed but you didn't answer."
"Sorry I was outside of my coverage zone." I said.
"Another Time Jump?" he asked.
"Three days on Asgard, present time." I added.
"They finally paged you?"
"They did, fought trolls and became friends with a dragon." I said.
"Dragon?"
"Nighug, guardian of Niflheim." I said.
"I'm gone for three days and you meet a dragon. I am missing out." He joked.
"Are you kidding, I leave one warzone with the intention of not going back and I get pulled into the interdimensional war front, it wasn't my idea of a good time."
"I'm sorry. But hey you got to live my childhood dream of meeting a dragon." Wren said trying to lighten the mood.
"That's true. It gave me one of it's scales. Apparently it really liked me." I said.
"You lucky ass. All I have to show for my three days back is sand in my boots and a callous." He complained.
"I'm sorry. Only two more months until you're back. I'm having a steam shower installed in your bathroom." I added.
"Aww stop, this isn't fair." Wren fake cried making me laugh.
"I have news. I talked to my Dad about the remodel and he wants me to consider going public."
"You mean tell the world you're his daughter?"
"Yeah, he want's me to give it a trial run spend the next month in New York and feel things out." I said.
"How do you feel about it?"
"It doesn't matter how I feel about it Wren. You know Aya won't allow it." I said.
"You never know unless you ask?" He said.
"There's no point in asking if I already know the answer she's going to give me?" I said.
"Just talk to her Nora."
"Wren she doesn't want me near Steve, what do you think he's do if he found out I was alive. Not only that how would I keep the time jumps a secret from my Dad." I pointed out.
"If this was all up to you, If the stone wasn't a factor, what would you do?" he asked.
"If I had to make the choice between staying hidden from the rest of the world or going public and finally being able to see my dad on a semi daily basis. Not having to worry about hiding the secret but being watched constantly. No contest." I said.
"I don't know what to say Nora."
"This isn't easy Wren. Even deciding to enlist wasn't this hard." I complained.
"I know, I wish I could be more help." He said sounding a bit sad.
"You're helping plenty. It's nice having someone to talk to about this." I said.
"I have to go." He said.
"Call me when you can." I said.
"I will." Wren said before hanging up.
What do I do?
"Aya, can we talk?" I said.
There was a light next to me and she appeared looking identical to me.
"You wanted to talk?" She said.
"You're gonna say no." I said.
"Not exactly." She said.
"Do tell?"
"I think you need to get out more."
"You do?" I said shocked.
"You spend to much time locked away here. Sometimes I send you back because I get bored watching you do the same thing over and over again."
"That's good to know…."
"The day will come when the world will find out about you but now is not the time. The time shifts would not be an issue; I could plan them for them to occur when you're not in public or near your father. The media cannot find out about you, your captain would drop everything to find you. Not only that there is the issue of you being seen by the Hulk's alter ego." It said.
"Oh shit, the thing with Loki. I forgot about that." I said groaning.
"You should start writing these things down especially with Wren moving in. It'll help when you start popping up."
"What am I supposed to tell dad?" I said.
"Tell him whatever you want. If you want to go to New York go to New York just know that if there's a possibility you'll alter the timeline I will move you away. You're father can't know and you can't see the Captain and the Hulk. Those are the terms. The rest is up to you." Aya said.
"What do you think I should do?"
"I can't answer that." It said before disappearing.
"Thanks." I looked at my bedside table and saw a coin. Heads I go tail I stay. I picked the coin up and flipped it. I caught it and placed it on my arm and covered it with my hand.
I can do it. One two three. I lifted my hand off my arm and the choice was made.
