YAY NEXT CHAPTER IS FINISHED! I am actually writing this chapter at Lake Chelan in Washington State. It's so relaxing here and the water is so clear you can see 35 feet below the surface. I had SUCH a writers block before I went on my trip that I didn't even know how I was going to start this chapter. WRITERS BLOCK! *runs away*. But I am back and happy because not only did I get to write this chapter, I was listening to this song from a soundtrack that gave me such inspiration that I was able to plan the big picture of how this story is going to go! So we shouldn't have any more delays unless it's family or work related. Hope you like XD!

If you where wondering the song I was listening to when inspiration hit was from 'The Haunting' soundtrack and it's called 'Home Safe'.

I do not own the Avengers team they belong to marvel and Stan Lee (God bless him)

BANG BANG BANG BANG

"No dad…not time…not." Alisha rolled over on the couch. She had woken up to her alarm, gotten her serum in her, and had gone back to sleep. She was exhausted from the day before.

BANG BANG BANG BANG

"No…leave me alone dad…still pissed." she rolled over again.

BANG BANG BANG BANG "Wake up Alisha, breakfast is almost over and it's 10 already. Open up or I will break down the door." Tera yelled, banging a few more times.

That got Alisha's' attention. She shot out of bed, instantly regretting it because she was so sore, and shuffled over to the door.

"Mooooorning" Alisha said with a smile. "Man I feel stiff as a board. Think we might get a little yoga in before we start the day?"

"No because you need some food. Breakfast is almost over. Come on." Tera said, pulling her arm.

Alisha fallowed and realized something once she fully woke up. "Where is Tia?"

"She is already in the gym, meditation before our yoga session." Tera said, inwardly shivering. "I really don't like yoga, it's too quiet"

"But it does help with flexibility." Alisha said as they entered the cafeteria. She got herself the same breakfast as she did the day before and ate quickly. After she finished she headed over to the Gym to find that her red Yoga mat had already been placed down. She went over to it, stood and placed her hands together and focused on breathing.

"Sleep well?" Tia asked as she was already balancing on her head with her feet almost touching the floor behind her.

"Yes, and I am not even going to ask when you learned to do that" Alisha said as she raised her hands high, lengthening her back, then reached her hands to the floor. She grasped her ankles and she lifted her chest a little, stretching out her spine, and then let her upper body go limp. She got into Warrior I pose and held it, then to worrier II and III. She repeated her actions on both sides and then went to the downward facing dog from the plank position. After that she worked on her balance with the tree poses and Crain posies before repeating everything again. Near the end of her Yoga she got into a crouching position and placed her knees on her elbows to balance. Once there she leaned her body forward to rest on her head and hands. She then brought her legs strait up in a head stand and split her legs, both her feet touching the floor. After about 3 minutes she raised herself onto her hands, straitened her arms and turned her body so her legs where sticking out in front of her. She held that position for about 2 minutes and then did everything in reverse. Once she was finished she lay in the sleeping child pose and rested a little before rising up and bowing.

"Oh that feels much better" She said bringing her leg up to meet her shoulder and shaking herself out.

"Yes, about 30 minutes a day with this and you will be as flexible as a snake. You almost are" Tia said, cleaning off their mats and rolling them up.

"Why didn't Tera want to join us?"

"She never really got into the meditativeness of Yoga. It's not just about becoming flexible; it's about finding your center and focusing on that. It's about knowing your body's limits and slowly extending them. It's a way to learn focus under stress and it helps. She doesn't see it that way for some reason." Tia said walking out the door.

"Ya that makes sense. So how about we try out my new suit hu?" She said wiggling her eyebrows.

"Oooooooh your dad will kill you but I would love to see it in action" Tia said, wiggling her eyebrows back.

"I bet you anything Tera is already there waiting for us" Alisha stated. Sure enough, there she was up in the rafters.

"About time you guys got here. You going to try out the new suit?" She asked, sliding down the rope she had climbed up.

"Yes I am. After all, I am in danger of being bored to death." Alisha said dramatically. She walked up to the metal floor and placed her hand on the scanner and said a voice command. The floor moved revealing robotic arms and the souls of the suit. She stepped into them and did as her father had always done, extended her arms. Within 5 second she was suited up and her helmet on. She didn't put the faceplate down yet because she wanted to look at herself. She turned to the twins who where ogling her.

"Woooooooooow that was cool" Tera said

"Very impressive, how does it fit?" Tia asked, being more practical about everything.

"Like a custom made shoe, just needs to be broken in" Alisha said walking over to the window and looking at her clear reflection. She hit some posies and smiled. She looked bitching in the suit. She put the faceplate down and JARVIS spoke to her.

"Hello Miss. Anything I can do for you?"

"Yes JARVIS. I would like full info on weaponry and a check on control surfaces"

"As you wish miss"

She could feel parts of the suit moving as JARVIS checked over everything making sure the suit was functional.

"All parts accounted for and fully functional miss."

"Good to hear. Now do a weather and ATC check and start listening in on ground control."

"Miss, if you do fly I am programmed to notify your father. Are you sure you want to do that?"

"Well he did say I can only use it if I am in danger. I am in danger of being bored to death." She states sassily. "Power up thrusters"

She felt the thrusters in her legs and her hands power up and she angled herself for the exit.

"See you in a few girls." She said to the twins before she shot out of the observatory. The first thing she saw was the blinding light of the sun reflecting off the snow but it quickly changed as she flew out. She did a few maneuvers and decided she had the hang of it. She then headed for a mountain and was planning on going down while trying to avoid the rocks and ice.

"Miss, you are not use to the suit yet, you could get hert"

"JARVIS, I need to learn at some point, why not learn on the job" Alisha said, using the repulsers in her hands to make little adjustments to the direction she was going. She became more and more bold with her weaving that she didn't realize until it was to lat that the space between two rocks was too small. She crashed thru one of them, the sound causing an avalanche onto surround her. She was spinning for what seemed like forever but was only 45 seconds, during which she hit a few more rocks. When she stopped, everything was dark. "Am I alive?"

"Your vitals show that nothing is amiss so, yes you are indeed alive miss." JARVIS sarcastically said.

"Which was is up?"

"Between your feet miss, would you like me to get you out?"

"Yes JARVIS, that would be much appreciated." She said, letting the AI take over for a little. JARVIS got her out in two quick movements and she was out into the sun shine. "I think I am just going to cruse for a bit, don't want to over to it"

"A little lat for that miss but I quite agree, oh and Mr. Stark is calling."

"Ok put him through."

"Alisha, are you ok? What's wrong?!"

"Hello, who is this?"

"It's your father."

"Hello, I can't hear you. Speak up please."

"Alisha this is not funny"

"I'm sorry…going…fuzz…it…I…ple…" Alisha then hung up. 2 minutes go by before Tony called again.

"Young lady if you are flying that suit without being in danger I am going to dismantle it and take it away." Tony exclaimed. "I stopped a very important meeting to call you!"

"Oh dad since when did you ever find meetings important."

"That's not the point. The point is that you where only sapos to use that suit in case you were in danger."

"Oh I was in danger all right. I was in danger of being bored to death." Alisha said sarcastically.

Her witty comment was met by silence from her father. Never a good sign.

"Dad? I was only joking." Alisha nervously laughed.

"Your safety is never a joking matter." Tony said in a quiet voice. Also never a good sign. A quiet or silent Tony meant the calm before the storm. "You have five seconds to get back into that hanger before I come over there and take it and all your other electronics away. Five."

"JARVIS take evasive action!" Alisha said and turned in the direction of the observatory.

"Four"

They were in sight of the mountain where the observatory was.

"Three" Tony's voice was getting sterner.

"Thrusters on full" She ordered Jarvis. She felt a lurch in her speed as she went faster.

"Two"

She could see the hanger and the twins.

"One"

She landed in the hanger very ungracefully as she made a dent in the floor and fell on her face."I am here, I am in the hanger" she yelled as the twins snickered at her landing, holding up a four and a five.

"JARVIS"

"She is indeed in the hanger Sir."

"Good, now if I get a notification of you flying again without my authorization I am taking all your electronics away" He said in a firm voice "Do you understand?"

"Yes dad, but how am I going to be able to fight in it if I have never used it?" Alisha asked in a pleading voice, trying to get her father to at least let her us it a little so she could practice.

"That is when you call me and ask. That is why I told you that you could only us it if you are in danger OR if I gave you THE OK!" Tony yelled. That made her feel a little better. Her father was at his scariest when he was quiet because you didn't know what he was thinking or planning to do.

"Yes dad, I understand now. I am sorry." Alisha said with a smile.

"Good, now take of the suit and you are not to use it for the next week unless your life is in danger." And with that he hung up, ending the conversation.

The faceplate came up and she looked at the twins.

"So how did it go?" she asked.

"My dad got scary quiet. I am not going to use it for the next week." Alisha said, walking over to the platform and letting the robotic arms take off the suit. Even though she had it on for just a few minutes, she felt like it was a part of her now. She felt weird without it.

"It was still WAY cool even if we just saw you take off. Did you have fun?"

"Yes she did. She had fun right into a wall it looks like. You started that avalanche didn't you?" Tia asked as she looked at the scratch she had gotten on the arm from plowing threw the rock.

"Yes, I was getting over confidant in my flying and made a slight mistake in the placing of how far apart two rocks where." She said, stepping out of the souls of the suit.

"So you crashed." Tia said.

"Yes Tia, I crashed. I am not hert but I did crash. It was my first time flying I think I did pretty good." She stated, going over to the lab part of the hanger and taking out the blue prints of her wings she had made at the Banners' place. "What do you two think?" She asked.

"I think it looks really cool. But why are you making them, you can already fly." Tera said, looking over Alisha shoulder.

"I am not just making them for myself. I am making them for each of the members. You two, Halder, Lance, and even Tyler. It will be easier to get somewhere then having to wait for a car, bus or hovercraft." Alisha said, already getting out some vibritioum that she had brought from her father's workshop and smithing it into the shape she wanted. It took up the rest of her time making the skeleton of the wings she would be using, putting it on, and making sure it worked with her movements. She had enough vibritioum, she estimated, for each of her friends which was good because the mettle was so light and yet stronger the steel that is would support the weight of anyone, and still be light enough to flap without too much strain on the persons arms. Plus it was also one of the rarest metals in the world.

"Ok finished with that. Let's get some dinner" She said looking over to the twins who had been sparing this entire time. They entered the cafeteria only to find it empty.

"That's strange, it's 8, there should be people here. Where is everyone?" Alisha asked, then headed up to the research facilities. Turns out that someone had a breakthrough with Eric's notes.

"Alisha there you are. We have been looking for you for a long time. Take a look at this; I think I have figured out what Eric was talking about in this section where the portal is concerned. See he was talking about how you need a lot of energy to keep the portal opened, well I think I have found some way to do that. Thermal energy!" Jane said with pride.

Alisha looked at the paper and thought about the statistics. "Not enough energy to sustain it, plus what would happen to the portal if you used up all that energy. If his calculations are correct we would need the equivalent of 394 lightning bolts to keep it opened for 30 minutes." Alisha said handing the paper back to Jane. "We need a stabilizing element to keep the flow of energy focused on the portal, and that element also needs to be able to recycle the energy almost like a light bulb, keeping the same energy going and going and going until we pull the plug."

Jane was looking at her notes she had put on Eric's reports and the nodded. "You are right. Now that I look and think about it we do need something to keep the energy going in a continues cycle. We could start collecting the energy from the lightning bolts now. We just need a place to store the energy indefinitely to use it when we need it"

"We could use the extra cells of the arc reactor that are in storage." Alisha suggested. They also had some energy in them so that would help. "And we could put each one out on a mountain peek to collect energy and check on it once a month to see if it has gained energy input"

"That's a good idea, I will get on that. Oh and could you not disobey your father again. He called me and started screaming at me. I told him to fuck off and hung up." Jane said going back over to her board.

"I already promised him, it won't happen again."

"Good, now get something to eat and get some sleep." Jane said, smiling at the girls.

They did just that. The twins where very impressed with how Alisha knew all that. They kept asking her questions and she answered them to the best of her ability, answering all the questions correctly. Once finished with dinner they headed back to Alisha's room, got washed and changed, and before the scientists had even finished their dinner, the three of them were asleep.

YAY! She finally flew the suit and Tony got into his 'I am very pissed' mood. I figured that since he is always talking and joking, he would get really quiet when he was serious mad. So hope you liked thoughs of you still reading! Please review!

LOVE TO ALL!
