Chapter 4: Meeting The New Family

The first week in California was spent fixing our house and unpacking all of our things we brought. Thor and Tony had only been able to stay that first night. I slept cuddled between the two for the entire night. It was the best night's sleep I had ever gotten. Papa had taken pictures with the new digital camera he got me and had gotten a copy printed for me the next day at Wal-Mart. I had picked out a frame and it was now on my new beside table.

Papa let me paint my room and pick everything out for it. He admitted by the fourth day that he didn't plan to return to England. He had already gotten political asylum for both him and me with the American President of Magic. After he told me that I went all out of my room.

The large room was now painted a dark tan with an accent dark chocolate brown wall. That wall faced the wall with the large bay window that opened out onto a large balcony, overlooking the ocean. The cushioned seats on two thirds of the window were a deep green with dark brown throw pillows. The third part of the window was the left side, and it was the door to the balcony. The whole window had billowy light green curtains.

My bed was in laid in the floor. It was a large circular nest with huge comfy brown and green pillows. The plush comforter was chocolate brown and the silk sheets were light green. Five green carpeted steps led down into my nest like bed.

The two tan walls that didn't house the window were covered almost entirely in bookshelves that doubled as the branches for the large brown willow trees painted on the walls. The shelves were full of books and pictures of my four parents. On one wall in the drunk was the door to my bathroom. The trunk door on the opposite wall was the entrance to my walk in closet.

My favorite place though was the balcony. A large black wicker weaved egg rested on the black granite flooring. Memory foam made a large thick mattress in the egg. Large comfy forest green pillows lined the entire circle, leaving a small circular space in the center for me to curl up in. The egg bed faced the ocean.

"-ub. CUB!"

The shout from my door had me toppling from my perch on the window seat. The door crashed open. "Cub! Are you alright?" Papa's eyes were wild with worry. Well, until he found my position. His wrinkles and crinkles showed up more as he struggled not to laugh at his son who was toppled upside down his legs bent up and onto the window seat, glasses askew, and book sprawled haphazardly open beside him on the floor.

I pouted up at him and that was the final straw. He began to laugh, and then guffaw, and then fell to the floor in laughter, tears in his eyes. I huffed. "Papa! It's not funny. You scared me and I fell on the floor. Come help me up. Quit laughing!"

Grinning the wolf stood still chuckling to himself. He came and picked me up under my armpits, easily righting me. Papa then scooped up my book before returning it to a shelf.

"Hey! I was reading that Papa!"

"You can read it later. A Ms. Potts just called. Tony and Thor are coming to visit and their bringing the Avengers with them."

"The Avengers?" I whispered in awe. Tony had sent me a high tech laptop the day after we got here. He had uploaded all the information of the Avengers he could onto the laptop and had given me instructions to 'learn about your men Cheru!' I had been so amazed as I read more and more about the Avengers. Tony and Thor were heroes among the muggles.

"Yup. The Avengers Cub. So how about you go take a shower and get changed."

"Can…can you pick out my outfit? I don't know what to wear to meet them Papa!" I asked panicked.

"Sure Har. Now go get a shower before you run out of time." He gave a small push to the small of my back. I smiled in thanks before scurrying off to my bathroom.

When I came out in a large fluffy black towel I found that Papa had left my outfit on the dark green ottoman. I skipped over to the coach dropping my towel as I reached the clothes. Shivering I threw on the clothing as fast as I could. A white swim shirt and dark green swim trunks with silver lining.

I went over to my beau and added the brown leather bracelet that Dad had given me when I was adopted. It had four small charms. A lily shaped emerald, an amber wolf, a stag made of deer horn, and an onyx shaped as a grim. 'To always have all your parents with you Pup.' Dad had told me as he gave it to me.

Looking in the mirror I messed up my already spiky, messy hair and turned to rush downstairs. As I reached the first of three landings I heard the door open.

"Hey wolf man! We're here. Now where are you hiding my darling Cheru?"

I sped the rest of the way down the stairs and into the entryway. Ignoring all the others in the room I launched myself into Tony's arms. "Snark, missed you." I mumbled, burying my nose in his hair.

"What about me young one?"

I turned, jumping into the large god's arms. "Missed you too Protector." I snuggled into his neck, inhaling his scent.

A clearing throat had me looking back at the way I had come. Papa stood, arms cross, frown marring his face. "Cub, we have guests. Is that how you greet them? And what have I told you about coming to answer the door before me?"

I dropped from Thor's arms and glowered at the floor. "For your safety, never open the door or greet people here before I have given you the go ahead." I dutifully quoted.

"Hmm. You remember but what did you do?"

"Diditanyway…" I mumbled.

"Cub don't mumble. It's rude."

I sighed. Looking up into my Papa's eyes I repeated, "I did it anyway."

"That you did. I'll ignore it this once. But next time you will be punished." I nodded. "Now you ignored our other guests. Greet them properly."

Obediently I turned around, only for my eyes to be blown wide. The Avengers. A wide grin spread across my face. "Hullo! Nice to meet you Avengers! Welcome to our humble castle!" I chirped. I then poked Tony and Thor. "Introduce me!" I demanded.

Tony side in a mock put-upon way. "Well Mr. Glower over there is Bird-brain. Then the red headed leather woman is Ninja. Tired man in the corner is Green Rage Monster. The man in red, white, and blue is Spangles. Then we have the wizard, Bullhead. The sexy red head by the door is Pepper. The one who seems to be talking to air – it's a phone, which I need to get you one – is Agent. And eye patch is the evil Spy Pirate."

I blinked at him. Once. Twice. And then turned away. "How about you just introduce yourselves?" I offered.

"I am Loki. Thor tells me you are one of my magic users." The man who looked scarily similar to me strode forward.

"Yup! I'm a wizard! But I'm not yours. I am Thor's and Tony's." I told him confidently.

"What!? You perverts! He's what, nine?" The woman in all blacked asked aghast.

"I'm almost fourteen, thank you." I glared at her. "And they are my mates. Our relationship is strictly platonic until my creature side reaches maturity, that's in three years. Leave them alone."

"Creature side?" the man Tony had labeled as 'Green Rage Monster' asked curiously.

"Yeah. Most Pureblood witches and wizards have some kind of creature blood in them. I'm a submissive. That means I can carry and have children. Subs come into their inheritances at fourteen, so we don't know what I am yet. Just two months and we'll know. Papa is a werewolf, he can't control his transformation like you can't."

He blinked at me a moment. Then he nodded. "I'm Bruce."

"Hi Bruce! Can we move to the living room before you continue with intros? It's boring standing here."

Papa sighed. "Go ahead and lead them there. I am going to finish packing our lunches."

"Kay. Are we going somewhere?"

"It's a surprise." Tony answered, scooping me up. "Now tell me where to go."

After directing the way to the ground floor living room I looked around, "So who is next?"

"Name's Rogers, Steve Rogers. Are you British?"

I looked at him slightly amused. "Yes Captain I am."

"Wait Captain? That means you know who we all are!"

"Yes I do Natasha Romanov. It's proper to let someone you have never met personally before though to introduce themselves or be introduced to you before assuming you can just be intimately familiar with them." I explained, annoyed at the loud woman.

"Tash leave him alone. He's just a boy."

"That's the problem Hawkeye! He's just a boy. Why are we even here?"

"If you wish to leave be my guest." I stated coolly. "If you don't wish to be here, I definitely don't want you here."

She glowered and stormed from the room, but I could feel the wards. She hadn't left the property. She hadn't even left the house. "Stay out of my room Black Widow!" I called out. I turned back to the people in the room. "Where were we?"

"I was just about to introduce myself. Hi I'm Hawkeye, or Clint Barton. But I prefer Hawkeye." He winked and grinned.

"I'm Agent Phil Coulson."

"And I'm Fury, Nick Fury. Why is it that we can find no record of you after you turn eleven until your move here, and there is no record of your father anywhere?"

My eyes hardened. "We are not a concern of yours. And its rude to do a back ground check on someone you have no right doing so to." I stood from my position on Thor's lap. Standing before Fury I leveled him with a glare. "I may look like a normal teen. I'm not. I am a killer. I was raised to be an assassin. And then discarded when I was of no more worth.

Understand this, I have no qualms maiming, killing, and making someone disappear if they are a threat to someone precious to me. My Papa is precious to me and so are Thor and Tony. They may work for you but they are mine. If anything happens to either one of them I will come after you and there is nowhere within this Universe or the nine realms you can hid. I will find you and I will kill you."

"Will you now boy? How do you plan to do that?"

I grinned wickedly. "Did you not hear Loki? I am of magic. I am a wizard, the most powerful one you could hope to find on this planet now or ever before."

Loki surged to his feet. He grabbed my shoulders and looked me in the eye. "What is your name?"

"Harry Ivan Potter Black."

He took in a sharp shuddering breath before his head tipped back and he laughed. "You would do best to leave him alone Fury. Even I could not take this boy. The boy who defies all odds and is a companion of Death. He walks where none have walked before and he has seen more than I'd ever wish on a nation of souls, let alone his lone soul. Father will wish to meet your little mate Thor. He is more powerful than the Allfather."

"One day brother I will take both my mates home. Today though, today we have fun."

I perked up immediately. "Fun? What are we doing?"

"Tony decided to treat all of us to DisneyLand Cub." Papa stated as he came in carrying a small backpack which he tossed me. My seeker reflex had me catching it before I realized my arm had moved.

Eyes wide I turned back to Snark. "Really Tony? We are going to DisneyLand?"

"We are Cheru. You've met the family, now let's find your wayward Aunt Ninja and head out."
