Chapter Two: Getting Settled

"Okay girls where should we go first?" Natasha asked them as they got in the car.

"No clue," Caroline said. "Most of the clothes I've had came from a thrift store."

"I'm sort of in the boat as her, plus I have no idea what stores are around here," Clara said.

"I guess I'm deciding then," Natasha declared. She had volunteered to take the girls shopping, because while Caroline could just make whatever clothes she could think off with the snap of her fingers, it wasn't ideal and not as comfortable as real clothes. Besides it was more fun to just go shopping for clothes.

After breakfast they had called for a team meeting, which in Caroline's opinion was totally unnecessary since they were already all together. Regardless of what Caroline thought, an official team meeting was called to figure out what exactly they should do with Clara and Caroline. Everyone had agreed that the girls each would get an unoccupied floor in the tower as they were Avengers. Then they got to how much the girls would be able to be in missions. The girls insisted that they were perfectly able to handle themselves on a mission, but some of the others didn't want them to because they were still only fifteen.

"Why does are age matter so much?" Clara had exclaimed. "We were clearly able to handle ourselves before so why is it so different now?" Eventually the amount of yelling that was going on got to the point where they all agreed to decide if they could go on a mission by mission basis.

Then they had come to the problem of school. It was a disaster. Everyone was out of their seats yelling at each other. Some insisted they should go to school like a normal person and then there were arguments over what kind of school that would be. Some said they should just be home schooled. Thor wasn't even entirely sure what they were arguing about. Caroline had gotten so annoyed she literally just left the room and no one even noticed.

"Jarvis, look up all the schools within a reasonable drive distance from the tower," Caroline had said once she had left the room. She was getting a headache from all the yelling. There were a lot of schools, to say the least. She managed to narrow it down to one that she liked and she thought the others would agree to.

She walked back in the room where everyone was still arguing and pulled Clara to the side. Clara agreed with her that the school was a good idea, which was all that Caroline needed. "Everybody, Shut Up!" she yelled and they quieted down so that she could explain her idea and they all miraculously agreed to it. Caroline decided that she was a genius.

Afterwards Natasha had volunteered to take the girls shopping so that's what they were doing.

"Okay, I have literally no idea what you guys are looking for," Natasha said. "So I just picked a store I think you might like, but don't blame me if you don't."

"The worst that'll happen is we don't find anything we like and we go somewhere else," Clara said, as Natasha pulled finally found a place to park the car.

They ended up walking around going to a lot of stores by this and that, and though a lot of it was clothes they also got a lot of other things they liked. Tony was actually paying for everything, so for once in their life the girls did not have to worry about how much the stuff they got cost. Even Natasha filled at least one bag of stuff.

By the time they got back to the car they were lugging around bags from a multitude of stores and it was way past lunchtime.

"I would call this a very successful trip," Caroline commented, dumping her bags in the car. "And I now own more makeup up than I will ever use in my life." When Natasha had asked what makeup they wanted, they had both told her that they didn't really use makeup, except in a play, so Natasha had practically thrown makeup at them to get. They got the makeup, but doubted they'd ever use most of it.

"You're crazy," Natasha responded.

"What?" Caroline said. "I am proudly part of the less than one percent of teenage girls in the US who don't wear makeup."

As soon as they got back to the tower they headed up to the common room to get something to eat, bringing their bags with them. Their lunch was basically fruit and peanut butter while they went back through everything they had gotten. There was a lot to go through.

Clara and Caroline were laughing about something Clara had said, while Caroline dug through her and pulled out a some piece of jewelry that sent Clara into hysterics. Natasha wasn't sure what she felt towards the girls, of course she liked them, it was almost impossible not to, but she was also a little jealous of them. They had had the childhood she never got, heck she had never even really gotten a childhood.

Natasha was snapped out of her thoughts as Tony stepped off the elevator. "What's so funny?" he asked.

Caroline open her mouth to open explain and the shut it again shaking her head. "You wouldn't get it," she said. "It's an inside joke." Tony pouted and they both started laughing again.

"Well once you to are done laughing you can go down to your floors and put all this stuff away," he said. "Told Pepper to not bother having the empty floors decorated, but she did it anyways."

Still giggling the girls gathered up their stuff, and dumped them back into the bags before heading getting into the elevator. Both girls got off on Caroline's floor walked into her living room, which was right on top of Clara's.

"Well I officially have way too much space," Caroline, who for her entire life had had to share a room with her sister, declared.

"Man," Clara said. "And I thought I was lucky having my own room, but this is ridiculous."

"I guess this is what happens when you live with a multibillionaire," Caroline said. "I could get used to this."

"Wonderful"

"I just had a brilliant idea beyond brilliant idea," Caroline said.

"What?" Clara asked.

"Now you don't have to agree to this, but what if I rearranged the walls so that on this floor we would have a big gigantic room just for the two of us and then on the other floor we could both have our bedrooms."

"We'll still have to work around the bathrooms and the mini kitchens," Clara pointed out.

"Yeah, but those are along the wall, so that shouldn't be a problem"

"Sounds good to me."

Meanwhile in R-and-D…

"Sir, it appears the Clara and Caroline have decided to rearrange the walls on their floors," Jarvis announced.

"Uhm," Tony said continuing to work on whatever it was he was working on, and then realizing what Jarvis had said. "Wait they're doing what?!"

Tony dropped whatever he was working on and hurried down to level the girls were on.

"Are you trying to have the next floor collapse on you?" he asked as soon as he got out of the elevator. "What were you thinking?"

"Sorry, what did we do?" Clara asked confused. By now Caroline was finished with moving walls around.

Tony sighed. "Next time, will you please ask before you take a wall down?"

"Oh, that," Caroline said. "Well I'm done now."

"Just. Don't. Do it. Again," Tony told them before leaving. When the girls had reappeared, moving walls around and almost causing a cave in, had not even been on Tony's list of concerns, but maybe it should have been.

News in our world…

Two fifteen girls Clara and Caroline Hathyer disappeared during the night of August 3, 2015, leaving no trace as to how they disappeared. There is no evidence to support a forced entry into the house, and nothing was stolen. The police are puzzled by this case, but for now the best reason for the girl's disappearance is that they simply ran away. However, when investigating this option no reason was found as to why they would do so.

The boy with the yellow t-shirt put the paper down. "They've been gone one day and already all chances of them being normal again are gone."

"I doubt they ever had much of a chance of being normal," the girl told him. "You should go visit them."

"Why so they can yell at me?"

"No, so that you can at least partly explain what's going on."

"You know they'll never be satisfied with anything less than the whole explanation."

"Perhaps, but some explanation is better than no explanation. Just think about it."

No reviews? Come on people please tell me what you think, it doesn't take long and they make my day. I still need super hero name ideas.
