Chapter 9
Here we go another Chapter down, found this one quite hard to do and you will probably be able to tell lol.
Anyway hope it's not to bad.
Just like Steve said it wasn't long before his team mate Falcon had arrived at the farm house, a small knock at the door accompanied by the follow up call to say that Laura and the kids escort had arrived and within minute they were all on the Quinjet heading towards safety of the Avengers facility.
The journey was a quiet one with only the sound off Cooper's music coming through his headphones and every so often Lila and Cassie whispering to each other for reassurance. Laura sat in one off the unoccupied seat watching the kids while she held the sleeping Nathaniel in arms.
It was then that Sam walked over and sat down in the other empty seat next to her.
"We will be arriving at the facility in about 5 minutes" said Sam
"OK" Laura responded in a soft whisper, it was obvious to the Avenger she was trying to keep her emotions under control and stay strong.
"It will all be OK we will find him" Sam said in a solemn tone.
Laura slowly turned her head to face him. "That's not the first time I have heard that you know"
Sam sighed but never took his gaze away from Laura "And we mean it, he is one of us and we never leave a team mate behind. Steve has informed the rest of the team and is also bringing in Hank Pym, Hope Van Dyne and Tony so we have no end of resources and help".
Laura looked at Sam curiously at the last end of his speech "Tony Stark I thought after the whole Socovia accords mess that there was a big rift between you guys, why would he help"
Sam smiled "Clint told you about that eh"
"Well when you tell your husband to go and do the right thing by helping his team and then he disappears for over a month, you tend to ask what the fuck happened when he come back through the front door" she responded in a jokey yet sarcastic tone.
The Avenger shook his head and couldn't help but chuckle "I don't know how much you actually know but I will fill you in with the rest, there is a mutual agreement between Steve, Tony , US government and UN. After it was made clear and proven the Winter Soldier was brainwashed by Hydra and not responsible for blowing up the UN, most off the charges were dropped but not all. He still has to remain in Wakanda until a cure has been found to override the trigger words in his head. For now and by the agreement of the president and UN, Steve's team are allowed to operate inside the US boarders but we are forbidden to go anywhere else in the world, instead Tony's team are allowed to go if granted permission"
Laura looked at Sam in confusions " How does that work I mean aren't the Avengers one unit I would off thought you would all be able to go if permission was granted"
"No that's the best Tony could do, but also me, Steve, Clint, Scott and Wanda never signed the accords" he responded.
"How and why would Tony do that?" Laura questioned
"Tony has a gift for persuasion and he did save the presidents life once….But what you have to remember about Tony is yeah he is self-obsessed and cocky as hell but underneath that exterior is a good guy who does care about people" Sam sighed
"When we were imprisoned on the Raft and Tony came to see us I saw a different version who was putting his pride aside and admitting the mistake he had made. Yeah he has made a lot of them but Tony intensions are always good and he did finally realise that the Avengers set up as it is now is better than a divided broken one"
Laura shook her head in agreement and smiled "I think I know what you mean, so you have all moved back into together I take it"
Sam laughed "Not quite Steve and Tony are on speaking term not quite house mate yet, there are still issues that are going to take a long time recover from. Tony has moved back to the Avengers Tower along with Rhodey and Vision, they seem to like living in the city better while the rest of us have moved back into the facility. The only one who has stayed is Natasha"
Laura again shook her head in agreement. Suddenly both she and Sam's attention were brought to the pilot.
"Sir we have arrived at the facility, radioing Captain Roger's to inform him off our arrival"
"OK" Sam said, he then turned and looked at Laura "You wanna grab the kids will I start getting the luggage together"
The young woman cleared her throat "Yes" she then got up from her seat and made her way to the kids to get them ready.
On the ground Steve and Natasha looked on as the Quinjet began making it's decent and landing on the tarmac. Making their way to cargo doors they watched as they opened. Laura and the kids slowly walked down the ramp escorted by Sam who led the way towards the pair off Avengers.
Without even a word Natasha immediately came forward and pulled Laura into a tight embrace and a few seconds later let go and hugged each off the children.
"You OK "Steve spoke first putting a reassuring hand on Laura's shoulder.
"Yeah" The young woman wiped her eyes
Steve gave a small smile and squeezed her shoulder "OK….Well we are gonna keep you hear until this situation is resolved. In the meantime why don't you come inside, get you all something to eat and get you comfortable. Everyone else is inside we are just waiting for Tony, who should be here shortly"
"And then are you gonna find our Daddy's?"
Everyone looked down at the little girl Cassie who was looking up at Steve with her big brown eyes.
Rogers bent down so he was with eye level with the little girl and smiled "Yes sweetheart we are gonna find your Daddy's and bring them home to you" the super soldier turn and looked at Clint's two children as he said the final part off his speech.
Cassie immediately jumped at Steve and gave him a huge hug which encouraged the two Barton children to follow and join in the hug as well. Steve who was a little taken back eventually returned the embrace that he was receiving.
Natasha, Sam and Laura who at this point began to release tears all smiled down at the touching sight.
Pulling away slightly Steve then looked at the trio of kids "Now who would like to come and meet the rest of the Avengers. Wanda's inside and she has been really excited to meet you all, what do you think? and Cassie Hope and Hank are here too"
Cooper, Lila and Cassie all shook their heads in excitement and while Steve was rising to his feet both little girls grabbed his hand while Cooper went to his mum and latched onto her own. The group then made their way towards the complex.
"Never knew how good you were with kids Rogers" Natasha joked as she walked beside him while extending her own arm around Laura's shoulder.
"Well Romanov you didn't know how good off a Halo player I was until I beat your high score" Steve chucked back.
Natasha smirked " Well I was gonna say it's because you spent quite a few years being the same height as a ten year old so you have common ground"
This response earned a laugh from the whole group as finally the doors off the facility opened allowing them to continue on inside.
There we are hope you liked it, and just hoping I am getting everyone's character right so far lol
Please Review….XD
