It was easy to get into a routine with the Avengers, it turned out having three master assassin spies- "Two and a half" according to Clint, it made being on top of their enemies a lot easier. Especially because most of them were not expecting a sixteen year old to get the drop on them. Tali also liked to still show off.
But after Branden was able to get his normal job set, which turned out to be Tali's JARVIS, he was smart, he managed to hack into any and all security camera that was within distance and more or less watched the redheads back. They made a very good team.
When they weren't busy Tali was doing her best to get to know her family before they were really her family and trying to get Loki and Tony to admit they love each other. Somehow after such an incident she ended up on the roof while she was sleeping. No one has any idea how Loki did it, considering how light of a sleeper she was, but he did. He still denied having any part in it but even Tony had looked flabbergasted and he was not that good of an actor.
Branden on the other hand had gotten a cold feeling awhile ago and hadn't told anyone, he'd gotten it the first time Tali had gone with them to stop Doom, he got it every time since then that Doom had shown up. He was starting to get the feeling that this whole business was because of Doom, but he had to make sure.
He went through every attack Doom had done recently, every item or information he'd stolen, he was starting to come to a fairly obvious conclusion. Some how it was Doom who caused the timelines to change and they needed to stop it.
"It's a hole," Branden told Tali who arched a brow at him, "To where I'm not sure, but that's what Doom is constructing, the device will create a hole that Overlord will just walk through, I imagine while fighting is happening and no one noticed, that's really the only logical explanation," he said and Tali sighed.
"So pretty much we make sure he doesn't open it in the first place?"
"Well, essentially yes, that is if I'm right, I mean looking at all of the data I've collected and all of the things Doom has stolen from before and from the time we've been here, I think he's trying to attract the one who can help him win, when it comes to Robots, he must be using a bit of magic to find it…so…" He shrugged and Tali nodded.
"That's not very reassuring," she muttered but then shrugged too, "Better than nothing, so pretty much…we have to stop him before he starts."
"Yeah, pretty much," Branden said with false optimism, Tali grinned but rolled her eyes.
"I guess we'd better tell the others, I wonder if Uncle Tony knows of any more crazy mad men who enjoy building an army of robots in their spare time."
"Not that I'm aware of no, Ivan is dead, Hammer is an idiot, Doom isn't that resourceful, The Mandarin…well…don't even get me started," he sighed.
The two teens shared looks, "Alright, so it's someone else entirely, I guess who it is really isn't that important, just stopping him is," Branden said and Tali nodded.
"When can we go and get him?" she asked.
"We can't," Natasha replied, "We are not able to actively go out and hunt people who are known villains, we can only stop them in the act," she said and Tali frowned.
"Well that sucks," she grumbled, "So you're saying we have to sit and wait for it to happen and we may end up being too late."
"Sounds about right, yup," Clint said and then shrugged, "Don't worry, we'll make sure everything works out."
"I sure hope so," Tali muttered, not sounding very confident, but she did what she had to. For her family.
