Lollypops101: Hope this chapter answers your question! ^^

Alinthrada GamerGirl: Thank you! I am trying hard to make this story likable to the readers!

In the middle of New York in a destroyed house laid a body under rubble and dirt. The body laid there for five months. But now…

It twitched.

And it twitched again. The legs moved and the rubble moved from the body to reveal a much alive Bruce. He moved as he threw the rubble off of him and slowly sat up. Rubbing his head he looked around. The house was a mess, destroyed nothing left untouched.

What happened?

He frowned. Oh yea, Loki. That bastard. He had cast some strange spell on him. He said something about a death spell. Bruce snorted. Yea well he wasn't dead. He failed… again.

Bruce looked around and he knew something was missing. Something important. Where are Betty and Zack? Fear filled through him. Did Loki get to them? Zack was out for a walk when he attacked. He had told Betty to run and find Zack and get out of this place. Did they succeed?

He got up and walked out of the house. He saw that no one was out on the streets. It was empty and abandoned. Where was everybody?

As he walked out and headed down the street he kept an eye out for anything and mainly his family and friends. Dread filled his body since he didn't saw anyone out the streets. He wanted to know what happened.

A screech made him stop and look around. What was that? Bruce didn't find anything and so moved on, but kept an eye out for anything dangerous. He was agitated, he couldn't keep calm that long. It was just a matter of time before he Hulked out.

He kept on moving until he heard the screech again. He turned around and that's when he saw it. Strange dark creatures were standing in front of him snarling at him. They looked like aliens or creatures from hell.

They snarled and then one screeched out loud and the others lunged at Bruce. He couldn't keep his anger in anymore. They were probably the reason why he lost his family and friends. He clenched his head and then roared at the creatures as his skin started to turn green and he grew taller and muscular.

The Hulk was out and ready to smash some alien heads.

They all saw Lena storming back. She looked slightly pissed. Zack was wrapping Tony's side with a bandage as she came back and they all looked worried. A few seconds later they saw Steve and Alisa walking behind her.

Alisa had a worried look. "Lena!"

The girl just simply dropped her bow and arrows but still kept on walking. "Lena, I just want to talk to you."

"You said what you needed. Just give in the fact. It's all true!" She said while raising her hands in the air, but then lowered them and started to walk away.

Alisa groaned. "It's not true Lena, come on." She said walking over to her friend, but Lena quickly turned around making her jump. "Yea, you have the right to say that. You have family, you have a father, a mother who are still alive and you even got a freaking uncle! I GOT NOTHING!" She yelled.

Alisa shook her head. "Lena, just calm down! We're your family! You need to clear your head or else you are going to do something stupid or something you are going to regret!"

Lena pinched the bridge of her nose. "How can I? He's gloating it in my face!?"

"Who's gloating what?" Tony asked frowning as he looked between the two girls. Marc and Zack just stayed back not wanting to get in the fight. They knew that when the two girls would fight you should stay out of their way. This is not your regular bitch fight, oh no. It was a full assassin vs half god war!

Only a few people dared to intervene. Steve sighed. "Loki attacked Lena."

"What!?" The two boys shouted. Steve calmed them down. "It's alright. We got there in time. It's just he messed with Lena's head."

"I'm fine!" She snapped at him. "It's you guys that don't get it! All your family is complete, alive and you got each other. I-I just have a b-broken family that is dead and… I-I can't do this… I just can't." She said shaking her head before turning around and heading down the tunnel.

Tony's eyes went wide and immediately stood up, but the pain in his side made him stumble. "Shit…" He mumbled. Clenching his side he tried to walk. "Lena!" He called out but she ignored him.

"Damn…" Tony mumbled. "Dad." Marc said taking a step ahead but Tony raised his hand. "I'm fine son. Just give me a second with Lena. The way she's heading is the way outside. If she even steps outside she'll get killed." Tony told them.

"That's not good." Zack stated and Tony rolled his eyes. "No shit."

"Let me help…" Alisa started but Tony shook his head. "No, I know what to do. Lena's like Natasha. I know what to do."

The others were hesitant at first but then they just nodded. Tony knew how to deal with Lena as good as her parents. So they let him go. Steve though warned him. "If something goes wrong yell or give us some kind of sign."

Tony nodded. "Will do Captain." With that the billionaire went after Lena.

As he left Steve and Alisa sat down by Marc and Zack. The two boys looked at them confused. "What happened? What did Loki do to her?" Marc asked.

Steve shook his head. "He just messed with her head telling her lies."

Zack looked at Alisa worried. What happened? "Do you guys know… what he said?"

She slightly lowered her head. "I just know what Lena told me, but from what I heard was that Loki told her that Clint's decision was a mistake. That her whole family was based and made of a mistake."

Everyone was quiet. They all knew what Loki meant. They didn't know Clint and Natasha's past as good as Lena did but they still knew some things. Like Clint's different call. But Loki was wrong. He gave Natasha a second chance and that was the best choice he had done in his whole life.

"But… we've got an advantage." Steve stated. Marc turned his head to the Captain and gave him a strange look. "Where do we have an advantage? There are millions of aliens or demons or whatever those things are out there and only a few of us. So where is this advantage you speak of?"

Steve smiled slightly. "Loki doesn't know you guys exist."

"What?" Zack asked confused. "How?"

Alisa shrugged. "Don't know, but he only knows that Steve, Lena and I exist or alive. He has no idea that the others had kids as well so he doesn't know that you guys exist."

"I can understand you Alisa since you guys are somewhat related and Steve walking in, but how does he know that Lena was alive?" Marc asked confused.

That was true. How did he know that Lena was alive? Though Alisa thought about something. "Lena's been out a few times sneaking to steal food and all that. She probably was seen one time and they told Loki."

"Yea, but she could have been just a normal survivor." Zack suggested.

Steve shook his head. "With Hawkeye's bow? Sure, a normal survivor." Zack slightly nodded in agreement. He was right there.

Marc smirked. "So we can use this to our advantage. We could sneak to the tower and when we get there attack and surprise him. We got Zack, he can turn into the Hulk and…"

"No." Zack stated simply. "I'm not letting him out. The last time that happened I almost…"

"That was the past Zack. You can handle it. You just have to believe in yourself." Marc told him. Zack though didn't listen. He just looked away.

Steve shook his head. "The thing is we have an advantage. We can still think about how to use it but at the moment we need to help Lena. If we want to succeed we need everyone to be concentrated. Lena at the moment will do stupid things that could kill her."

Zack nodded. "Yea, Lena is in trouble…" He muttered but nobody heard him.

Tony headed down the tunnel in a hurry to get to Lena in time. His side was bugging him but he tried to ignore it. Lena was more important at the moment. She wasn't thinking, Loki was in her head and he needed to get that bastard out.

To say the truth, Tony liked Lena very much. He likes all the kids but somehow Lena was just… a great kid. He had no idea if it's the reason that she was the child of the two assassins he's trying to annoy or if it's just her personality. Whatever it was he didn't care at the moment. The only reason important at the moment was that he was her uncle and she needed help.

Tony saw a glance of Lena as she was walking down the tunnel. She was almost at the exit. He growled slightly. "Lena!" He yelled.

Luckily this time she heard him. The girl stopped and turned around. "Tony?" she asked confused. She noticed that he was humping. "Tony, what the hell? What are you doing? You're injured!"

Tony frowned. "What am I doing? What are you doing!? Lena, just stop for a moment. Just stop and think about what you are doing."

Lena furrowed her brow. "What am I doing? Tony, you don't get it. My parents died Tony and you guys are all back together. Like I said to Alisa. With my shit luck the Hulk will be up there smashing some aliens. I have no family Tony. I'm all alone!" She started to yell.

Tony shook his head. "Lena you are not alone. You have a family. We are your family. Do you really think that we won't look after you? That we won't make sure you are happy or that you are fine? Lena, there is nothing that will change our minds about you. I'm your uncle and I will be happily to take care of you."

"How do I know you're not saying that? Fury is probably going to send me away when we get back…" Lena said looking away. That was always her assumption. She always thought that when her parents had an 'accident' on one of their mission that Fury would send her away. To some isolated place where no one can find her. And hearing that Tony wasn't saying a word was just proving she was right.

"Lena…" Tony muttered. "There's something I haven't told you yet. Neither did your parents."

"What is it?" Lena asked him confused. Tony sighed. "Your parents, well mostly Natasha, made me make a promise." Lena looked at him as he went on. "They told me that when they actually died that I should look after you. They wanted me to make sure that SHIELD wouldn't do anything to you. They had no idea if they would do something but if they did then I should stop them."

Lena slightly smiled at him. So he really cared for her? Tony smiled as well. "Natasha also made it very clear that if I do anything to upset you or ruin something that she will come back from the dead as a ghost and haunt my ass for the rest of my life."

The red haired girl chuckled. "That does sound like mom." Tony nodded. "And I sure am going to keep that promise, no matter what."

"I miss them…" Lena muttered a few tears threatening to come out of her eyes. Tony nodded. "I know, it's hard but you can't give up Lena. You just can't. We Avengers all had a plan for you kids. We wanted you to step into our shoes and become the new Avengers when we couldn't do it anymore. And hell Lena, you are one good Black Widow and Hawkeye mix."

Lena shook her head and, surprising Tony a little, she hugged him making him stumble slightly. She started to cry. "I just miss them so much…"

"Sh, it's alright Lena." Tony said holding her. "Everything is going to be alright."

Lena kept crying as Tony kept holding her. "I'm weak." She mumbled and Tony chuckled slightly. "No you aren't Lena. Not sure if you'll believe me but even Natasha was in this same situation we are in."

Lena looked at him confused. "She was?"

Tony nodded. "Yea, she made me not tell anyone. It was one time when she was really, really down and Clint wasn't there. He was on a solo mission and believe me, Natasha was a wreck. I don't know what happened but I think she was having one of her panic attacks, where she was having memories from the… Red Room. Normally Clint would be there and calm her down, but… well… he wasn't."

"So what happened?" Lena asked him while wiping her tears away. Tony smiled. "I actually calmed her down. I knew how she felt. Sometimes I still have some panic attacks when memories from Afghanistan came back. But Pepper always helped me so I tried to help Natasha the same way. And we ended up in this same situation, though she did whisper in my ear that if I tell anyone she would cut my balls off."

Lena chuckled. "I'm so glad you are still alive Tony."

"Same here kiddo." He said smiling. The two were staying in that embrace for a while. And the only reason they parted was the loud rumble right above them. The two of them looked up to the ceiling.

"What was that?" Lena asked confused.

Tony shook his head slightly. "I have no idea."

Another rumble and then a screech. Their eyes went wide. "Shit…" Tony mumbled. The entrance of the subway tunnel was at their side and down came a demon crashing down. Tony grabbed Lena and pushed her behind him while raising his still armored hand.

The creature shook his head and looked up seeing the two. It screeched and was about to lunge at them but something hard smashed it to the ground.

Tony's and Lena's eyes grew wide. It was a fist.

A green fist

They looked up in awe. "B-Bruce?" Tony asked shocked.

Haha! Cliffy! Sorry about that :P But hey, I'm back and the next chapter won't take that long like the last one. I only got like three tests for this school year and they are easy peasy.

So hope you guys are still there and please review! I love hearing what you guys have to say.
