        Random snippet from a random fanfic short story, lol:

         

        “No problem, Sarah. I wanted to spend more time with everyone,” Sam adjusted his rearview mirror; he saw Cass, AJ, and Bucky still unbuckled, “alright, you three get your seatbelts on already.”

        “Thanks Mom.” Bucky retorted, buckling.

          Buckles Or Knot Part 2:

          I flashed back to earlier that day. “Katrina, stop!” I laughed.
          She laughed along, “Hold still, honey. I’m almost done pinning.”
          She rubbed her fingers across my back as she finished pinning, “You’re tickling my back,” I giggled.
          She smiled at me as she started to turn me around, “Alright, you’re done.” My dress swished as she finished turning me. She looked at me in awe and breathlessly said, “You look beautiful!”
          I blushed, “Thank you.”
          “When’s Jack picking you up?”
          “Um…” I looked up at the clock, ” Fifteen minutes.”
          “We have time. Let’s get some pictures.” She walked to the bottom of the stairs and called up, “Buck!?”
          “Comin’,” he drawled.
          I turned to Katrina, “Thanks for doing this for me. My dad never could have done any of this.”
          “Ah, yes. Knowing Detective Polehause, I can understand why. You’re welcome, dear.”
          “He’s not so bad, especially as a dad!”
          “Yes, Mom?” He jumped off the bottom step. I wondered if he was trying to impress me. I brushed away the thought. He had Jules and I had Jack anyway.
          “I want to get some pictures of you and Sara before she leaves.” She pulled out her camera while I stepped into Buck’s view. I watched his reaction. I had taken his breath away.
          “You look really pretty, Sara. Jack’s a lucky guy.”
          I blushed even more deeply, heading for crimson red. We spent ten minutes getting pictures before I finally heard a car door slam. I grabbed my purse and headed outside, waving, “Jack’s here! I got to go, bye!”
          Katrina and Buck waved and called out, “Bye,” in unison. I shook my head. They were definitely family.
          “Have fun!” I heard Katrina say.
          “Have a good time!” Buck drawled again.

                Sooooooo I have an AU idea that I’ve had for a while but have only recently begun thinking about trying…

                 

                It is a Villain AU, where several of the Marvel heroes are actually villains, and a couple of the villains are actually heroes…🤔

                 

                I still need a name for the Hero team tho 😝 The Villain team will still be called the Avengers.

                 

                But anyhow, it’s kinda like: “What If Alexander Pierce started the Avengers instead of Nick Fury, and what if the ones we know as Heroes were the villains???”

                 

                So these are the members of each team:

                 

                (Insert Name) Hero Team:

                Commander (one that is technically in charge, but doesn’t lead missions): Phil Coulson (Nick Fury was killed a few years prior)

                Leader (leads the others while on missions): Bucky Barnes

                Other members:

                T’Challa

                Shuri

                Yelena

                Kate Bishop

                Helmut Zemo

                Loki Laufeyson

                Vision

                Helen Cho (works as the medic on the team)

                 

                And then…

                Avengers Villain Team:

                Commander (again, leads the team, orders the team, but doesn’t go on missions: Alexander Pierce

                Leader (leads the others while on missions): Tony Stark

                Other Members:

                Thor Odinson

                Natasha Romanoff

                Clint Barton

                Wanda Maximoff

                Pietro Maximoff

                Bruce Banner (fights, but is also a medic)

                Steve Rogers

                Sam Wilson

                Ultron

                 

                 

                So yeahhhhhhh!!!

                I don’t have everyone’s backstories figured out, but I have Steve and Bucky’s, and Thor and Loki’s, and maybe a LITTLE of Wanda and Pietro and Natasha and Yelena…the others tho…idk yet XD

                 

                ANYHOW…what do y’all think??? 😁

                  Ooh sounds interesting, I like it, only it sounds like another depressing dystopia

                  But I’d love to read it ❤️

                    @smiley Welllllll, it can’t be too depressing, especially when you have Bucky, Loki, and Zemo working together XD

                      Oh, my word!! I didn’t think of that, Loki and Zemo would be a hilarious duo

                        Oh my goodness! I love this idea!!!! I feel like you paired everyone together well, I think I most excited for the Heros team, cause like you already said, Bucky, Loki, and Zemo (and I might add Shuri XD) will be amazing together!!

                          @freedomwriter76 interesting…I can see the “depressing dystopian” bit that others are talking about but Loki and Zemo would make for hilarious trouble magnets together, so…interesting!

                          tbh “avenger” does sound like a villain-type designation.

                          Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.

                            I just hope the characters all have some semblance of a happy ending lol. Like they realize they’re actually on the side of the bad guys and turn to fight Pierce.

                            Is he always the top villain in these kinda fanfics?

                              @keilah-h @freedomwriter76 @euodia-vision @mineralizedwritings

                              Okay so Y’all, I was reading some different fanfics… and I stumbled across this story idea, that several people had done, and of course, I had to do it for my Wanda and Pietro fic

                              And guys!!! I’m in love!!!

                              So basically Pietro survives but he needs physical therapy and rest so Clint and Laura invite them to stay with them for a while

                              (And it’s like the most precious thing ever)

                              So here are the first two chapters, setting everything up, because as I already said in an earlier post Hannah will be added

                               

                              Chapter 1

                              Wanda had refused to leave Pietro’s side, for days, she had sat by his hospital bed. Everyday tears coursing down her cheek, begging to not lose him. Clint had been there too, after all, Pietro had risked his life to save him. The two had waited patiently for his awakening.

                              Today Wanda was holding Pietro’s hand, an unnerving feeling building in her. Something was about to happen, she could feel it, but she didn’t know if it was going to be good or bad.

                              With quivering lips, Wanda managed to speak in a soft whisper. “Please don’t leave me, you’re all I have left…”

                              Pietro adjusted his eyes to the lights, hearing his sister’s voice. He felt around the bed, and reached for her hand, squeezing it. “I’m not going to leave you sis,”

                              Wanda looked at his hand and then at Pietro, who had a boyish grin on his face. Wanda’s eyes flooded with tears of joy as she embraced her brother in a hug.

                              At that moment Clint walked into the room, almost dropping the cup of coffee he had brought for Wanda.

                              “Hey old man,” Pietro said waving to Clint.

                              Clint managed an annoyed smirk, setting the coffee on the end table. “Took you long enough,”

                              “I’m sorry did I not save your life?” Pietro stated, crossing his arms.

                              “Yeah, and out of all the idiotic things you could do, you did that,”

                              Wanda nodded with Clint, glaring at Pietro.

                              She couldn’t even begin to explain the pain she had felt in that moment, the moment she thought she lost her brother. It had brought a pain so deep and so sharp that when Ultron had used the threat of death on her, she hadn’t cared, because, in her mind and heart, she had just died.

                              “So I become the hero and get lectured?! That doesn’t seem fair,” Pietro stated, smiling.

                              He was still just as annoying as ever, yet Clint and Wanda couldn’t be more happy for him to be alive and well.

                              Well, only sort of well, he still would need a lot of rest and physical therapy to get back to his complete self.

                              ~*~

                              Hannah stood in front of the glass window, showing Pietro’s hospital room at the Avengers’ tower.

                              “Hey,” Maria smiled as she came up behind Hannah.

                              The two had worked together for years now, and they had grown a close friendship.

                              Hannah sighed, turning from the window. “So where are you headin’?”

                              “To work with Nick Fury,”

                              “On what?”

                              “Confidential,”

                              Hannah shook her head. “So things haven’t changed,”

                              “Guess not,” Maria gave a clever smile as she handed a folder to Hannah. “Only I want you to take over for me,”

                              Hannah stood in shock, looking at the folder, and reports on all of the Avengers. She gave a nervous smile, staring at Maria. “I don’t think the Avengers will listen to me like they do you,”

                              “I’m not so sure, you’re pretty scary,”

                              “Thanks… I think,” Hannah closed the folder and then saddened. “So this is it?”

                              Maria looked around the hallway, and then back at Hannah. “A new Avengers’ compound is in the works, until then, everyone going their separate ways,”

                              “Where is everyone going to go?”

                              “Well, Steve, Nat, and Sam are going to be working on the “missing person case”, Tony will be going back to Stark Industries, and Thor is taking care of a few loose ends until he goes home,”

                              Hannah gestured to the twins. “And the Twins?”

                              “Going to the Barton farm, Clint invited Pietro to do physical therapy there, he hasn’t asked them yet, but I doubt he’ll take no for an answer.”

                              “So just to be clear I get to take your job just to be fired?”

                              “You’re not being fired, but until the compound is finished, there isn’t any need for you, so I’d suggest taking this time to visit family,”

                              Hannah chuckled, already crossing that idea out of her mind. Her family was interesting, and she’d prefer not to stay there for longer than a week.

                              Maria and Hannah said their goodbyes, wishing the best for each other. Maria left, leaving Hannah to figure out her next step.

                               

                              Chapter 2

                              “Clint!” Hannah nodded to Clint as he began to enter his car in the parking lot.

                              “Came to say goodbye?”

                              “You’ve only told, Maria, Nick, Nat, and Me about the safe house and now it’s a bed and breakfast?”

                              Clint chuckled. “No offense but the Avengers’ tower isn’t a good place for rest,”

                              Hannah narrowed her eyes, looking skeptical. “I know you, this is more than physical therapy,”

                              “You can act as skeptical as you want, but at least you have a home,”

                              “So now it’s a home your offering them, you what they say “home is where the heart is”,”

                              “You should be a lawyer, you’re great at twisting my words,”

                              “Thank you,”

                              “Are you going to visit family,”

                              Hannah looked at the city skyline. “Nah, I love my family, but there’s a lot of tension, and uh… I prefer to visit during Thanksgiving and Christmas when they’re all focused on the holidays and me not being dead to cause any drama,”

                              “I can understand that, but what are you going to do?” Clint smirked. “You could help on the missing person’s case,”

                              “I prefer to not trace a guy with that kind of reputation,”

                              “Steve has hope,”

                              “And I believe he’s right, but I’m not ready to risk my life to prove that,” Hannah smiled. “I think I’ll go to Hawaii,”

                              “Options,”

                              “In all honesty, I think I’ll stay here, maybe a bit lonely but I’ll use the gym and get super fit, next time you see me I’m going to be Captain America,”

                              “Don’t wait that long to come and visit,”

                              “I won’t,” Hannah nodded giving Clint a smile. “Are you sure about this, I looked at their file, they’ve both been involved in violent protesting and Pietro was a common thief,”

                              “Did you also read that they were orphaned at ten?”

                              Hannah’s face shows excitement. “Aha! I knew it was more than “physical therapy” I knew it!”

                              “There you go again, twisting my words,”

                              “Yeah, yeah, whatever,” Hannah smiled as Clint started his car. “Take care of yourself,”

                              “You too,”

                              Hannah smiled as she waved at Clint’s car. There were so many goodbyes, and she hadn’t even gotten to know some of the new recruits, but at least she could still get to know Vision, since he was the only Avenger staying.

                              And she’d visit Steve, Nat, and Barton, of course, being that Pietro wasn’t that bad-looking (for a common thief and protester).

                                And I have chapter 3

                                and Y’all I love this so much

                                Chapter 3

                                Clint paced around the living room, the floorboards creaking beneath his heavy boots.

                                “You’re thinking of all the things that could go wrong, aren’t you?” Laura asked, crossing her arms at her husband.

                                “Are you sure you’re okay with this?” Clint took a seat beside Laura.

                                “Positive,”

                                “I just know how much of an intrusion this is,”

                                Laura grabbed her husband’s hand. “I admit when the idea was suggested, I had doubts, after all, we have two young kids and a third on the way, not to mention that they both have uncontrollable powers, but… I have a good feeling about this,”

                                “You literally just pointed out all the wrongs and expect me to feel better,” Clint stated with a smile.

                                Laura chuckled, giving Clint a light kiss. “Everything will be fine,”

                                Clint tried to believe that, but he still had doubts. Hannah hadn’t been far off on the reason why he and Laura had invited the two to stay with them. He knew this was the right thing, and his children had been on board, even saying they wanted them to sleep in their rooms.

                                But they decided to not go that route, instead, Pietro would take the guest bedroom, and Wanda would take a cot in the nursery.

                                Clint’s phone buzzed in his pocket, he looked at it.

                                It was Nat, telling him she was almost there.

                                ~*~

                                Pietro and Wanda shared a glance as the Quinjet came to a landing. They had told Laura and Clint that they didn’t want to be a bother, but they had been determined to have them here.

                                So here they were, arriving at a large farm, with cows, corn, and a rustic barn that appeared to still be of use. Pietro and Wanda could see a lot from the windows, but the most fascinating thing was a young girl running out to supposedly greet them.

                                “Mom, Dad! They’re here!” Lila announced, running outside to watch the plane land. She was already waving to Auntie Nat through the windshield.

                                Wanda smiled at Pietro, she had a good feeling about this. Pietro needed a place to rest and once he was on his feet, he needed a place big enough to run. She thought being around the Bartons would be of some healing for them, they were twenty-one and merely guests but she was still excited and nervous.

                                Wanda stood only inches away from Pietro as he made his way down the Quinjet ramp.

                                “Will you ever stop hovering?” Pietro asked smirking at his sister.

                                “You’ve hovered over me my whole life, and now I’m going to do the same,” Wanda stated, not showing a hint of wavering.

                                Pietro let out a sigh as he walked through the tall grass and into the front yard. Where the young girl was, Lila was her name, he had remembered hearing about the energetic six-year-old.

                                “Hi!” Lila said, clearly not afraid of strangers.

                                Wanda and Pietro smiled at the girl and then looked at the farmhouse as Clint, Laura, and finally Cooper came through the front door.

                                “Wow you look terrible,” Clint said, receiving a glare from Laura.

                                “Well you’re not that flattering either,” Pietro scoffed.

                                “I can help with the bags,” Laura said, walking over to the Quinjet.

                                “Thanks but I have them,” Wanda said, grabbing the one suitcase, she hated to trouble the clearly pregnant woman. “Thank you again, for letting us stay with you, Mrs. Barton,”

                                Pietro nodded. “Yeah, thanks,”

                                “Please call me Laura, and is that your only bag?”

                                Pietro shrugged. “It’s all we have,”

                                Laura’s eyes showed empathy, giving a faint smile to the two. “Why don’t you guys come inside for some dinner, Nat?”

                                Natasha looked at Laura, deciding whether or not to accept her invitation.

                                “Come on Auntie Nat!” Lila said grabbing Nat’s hand and rushing her inside.

                                Laura began to also hover over Pietro as he walked up the porch steps. Pietro looked at Clint for help, gesturing to the two girls who stood only inches away from him.

                                Clint lipped “sorry” to him.

                                Pietro scowled at him, as they made their way to the dining room. Wanda would only let him go at a snail’s pace with his crutches, which was unbearable for him.

                                ~*~

                                “I hope you guys don’t mind chicken,” Laura said, as she set a tray of chicken wings on the table.

                                Wanda looked at the food, she and Pietro had never had much to eat in Sokovia, and their bodies had shown it.

                                When staying in Pietro’s hospital room, Wanda had begun to eat a bit more, but her body was still not used to such large portions.

                                “Chicken is wonderful thank you,” Wanda looked up at Laura. “This is all too much, and as we’ve said before we can find somewhere else to stay, Pietro can manage to recover on his own,”

                                Laura looked at Wanda with a look of determination. “Nonsense, you’ll both stay here and that’s the end of it,”

                                Wanda gave up and smiled at Laura.

                                The table was full of chatter between the twins and Cooper and Lila. Pietro and Wanda appeared to enjoy every part of the conversation, Pietro mostly acting like a kid at heart.

                                Natasha, Laura, and Clint shared a look. In the first hour of having the twins here, they already appeared much happier than they had ever seen them.

                                Laura whispered in Clint’s ear. “Told you it would work out,”

                                Clint smiled, but truthfully time would tell.

                                  And uh… three more chapters *coughs* I really love this fic

                                  Chapter 4

                                  Pietro didn’t wake up to a rooster, not because there wasn’t a rooster but because he had slept through it.

                                  That’s how it worked for him, sleeping at night was much harder for him, in the silence he could hear everything, and that terrified him. Nightmares would cause him to wake up, and so to catch up on sleep he’d sleep through the morning, and for some odd reason that was easier for him.

                                  Some people would no doubt think he’s lazy for not waking up early, but people like Wanda knew what it really was.

                                  As far as he knew she didn’t get flashbacks, but instead, she lived her life in an almost depressed state.

                                  “Morning,” Wanda whispered as she slowly opened the guest bedroom door.

                                  Pietro got up from the covers to look at her. “Sorry, I’m in too much pain to get up,” Pietro let out a clearly fake groan.

                                  “Fine then I guess we won’t go for a run,”

                                  Pietro wasn’t stupid, yet somehow he had managed to believe his sister and get out of bed in a flash.

                                  “I lied, we aren’t really going for a run but now that you’re up…”

                                  Pietro scowled, slipping a sweatshirt on. “You’re cruel,”

                                  “I know,” Wanda shrugged, smiling at her brother. “I’m scared to go downstairs,”

                                  Pietro turned from the closet to his sister, who was sitting on the edge of his bed. “Why?”

                                  “Because I have no clue what to expect, what if I’m supposed to go retrieve the eggs or milk the cows,”

                                  “Now that I would pay to see,”

                                  Wanda grabbed a pillow and used her powers to throw it at him.

                                  “Hey! Injured patient here,”

                                  Wanda showed a bit of guilt. “Sorry, how are you feeling?”

                                  “Like I can’t be sarcastic,” Pietro said, annoyed that his sister honestly felt guilty for being normal around him. “You’re scared to go down because you don’t know what to say or do,”

                                  Wanda nodded.

                                  Pietro didn’t blame her, they had never really lived with a family, and they had no clue what to do.

                                  “Well, what happens in those sitcoms of yours?”

                                  Wanda rolled her eyes, considering if she should chuck another pillow at him.

                                  ~*~

                                  Laura had never been the breakfast type, and she’d usually have her kids find something to eat, whether it was fruit or cereal. But she felt bad for not making something for the twins, which left her staring at a frying pan, deciding whether or not she should make something.

                                  “Good morning,” Pietro said as he came down the stairs, Wanda following close behind him.

                                  Not out of fear of him falling or anything but of her own fears. Of saying something wrong or not making a good impression.

                                  “Good morning, I was just going to make some eggs, if you guys want them,”

                                  Wanda looked around the kitchen, seeing that both of the kids were having cereal and that Clint was enjoying a cup of coffee. There were no eggs out or any other indication of cooking. It only took Wanda a second to put the dynamic together, they didn’t have prepared breakfast but instead, everyone found something.

                                  “You don’t need to go to the trouble, me and Pietro are fine with… cereal,”

                                  Clint glanced at Laura, giving her a look of “I told you”.

                                  Yet it was almost strange to watch the two, like the everyday pleasures they had they were just now discovering. That anything to do with a family dynamic was new for them, and they had no clue how an average life worked.

                                  But as he thought about it made sense, they came from a country in war, where even when their parents were alive they lived in fear and probably didn’t leave their house a lot. Their parents had left an impression on them, but not nearly enough for the kids to take into their lives now. And even though they were twenty-one that didn’t mean they didn’t need some stabilization

                                  Pietro and Wanda took a seat at the table where Cooper handed the cereal box to Pietro.

                                  “How are you feeling Pietro?” Laura asked, pouring herself a cup of coffee.

                                  Pietro held back the annoyance of constantly being asked that. “I’m fine,” though he didn’t sound very convincing.

                                  Laura nodded, giving a faint smile.

                                  “Wanda,”

                                  Wanda turned to look at Cooper, he didn’t appear to look like a morning person, with messy hair and dark eyelids. “Yes?”

                                  “You can read minds right?”

                                  Wanda got up from the table, beginning to make herself tea. “I suppose,”

                                  “Could you read mine?”

                                  “Oh and me!” Lila exclaimed, she had been previously showing her drawings to Pietro.

                                  “Why don’t we stay away from the reading or manipulating of minds for right now,” Laura stated, giving a stern look to her children.

                                  Wanda looked relieved, the last thing she wanted to do was hurt one of two kids with her powers.

                                  Lila looked up at Pietro, holding a crayon in her hand. “Do you want to color with me?”

                                  Pietro looked at the girl’s bright brown eyes, she had a smile he couldn’t say no to, even though he was a terrible artist.

                                  “Sure why not,” Pietro grabbed the purple crayon and began to doodle on the sheet of paper.

                                  Once her tea was finished, Wanda looked over her brother’s shoulder and at his artwork. “What is that?”

                                  “A flower,” Pietro said, not even looking up at her but instead putting all his concentration in his crayon drawing.

                                  “Is it though…?” Wanda tilted her head, looking skeptical.

                                  “I think it’s beautiful!” Lila said, happily scribbling on her page.

                                  “See I have her approval,” Pietro said giving Lila an high-five.

                                  Wanda smiled, grabbing a crayon and beginning to draw also.

                                   

                                  Chapter 5

                                  Hannah had made some progress, she had gone from not being able to do a pull-up, to being capable of doing two pull-ups. Slowly but surely she was making progress, but then again that Hawaii trip didn’t sound that bad.

                                  Hannah made her way into the kitchen, where Vision stood behind the counter making eggs.

                                  “Are those for me?” Hannah asked, smiling at the kind gesture.

                                  “I read that it’s good to get protein in you after an intense workout,” Vision stated.

                                  “I wouldn’t call my workout intense, but I won’t say no to scrabble eggs,”

                                  “I can’t really try them, so I’m not sure what they taste like,” Vision noted as he set the plate of eggs in front of her.

                                  Hannah tasted the fluffy yellow eggs in her mouth, savoring the flavor. “It tastes delicious, thank you,”

                                  Vision smiled.

                                  “What’s your plan? Are you going to be living here until the compound is built?”

                                  “I suppose I could go help out at Stark Industries or help Steve and Nat on their project, but I think I’m best suited here, what about you?”

                                  Hannah sighed. “I’m not sure, I’ll probably visit Nat and Steve, but also the Bartons,”

                                  “Awe yes, I would quite enjoy seeing Wanda again,”

                                  “And Pietro?”

                                  Vision nodded. “Yes and Pietro,”

                                  Hannah smirked. “So uh you like her?”

                                  Vision clasped his hands. “I do in fact like her, but I’m not certain it’s in a romantic way, but I do enjoy her company more than I was expecting, and since I’ve never experienced love I suppose this could be it,”

                                  Hannah couldn’t hide her smile from the sweetest answer Vision could’ve possibly given. “What did you guys talk about when you visited her in the hospital room?”

                                  “All sorts of things, but there was a time when Pietro’s fate was looking more grim, and we discussed to idea of grief,”

                                  “Wow… that’s deep,”

                                  “I suppose, but isn’t it the deeper conversations that really tell you about a person, the way they process the ideas and thoughts?”

                                  Hannah nodded. “Yeah, it is,”

                                  “I believe I’ve told you a lot about my relationship, so if you want you could tell me a little bit about yours,”

                                  “Well… I don’t have one,” Hannah said, looking sheepish at the truth. “I’ve never been in any relationship, ever,”

                                  “I find that hard to believe, you being you,”

                                  Hannah blushed. “You are a master with words, and I’d be shocked if Wanda doesn’t fall for you,”

                                  “Fall?”

                                  Hannah laughed. “Like falling in love with you,”

                                  “Awe, that makes sense,”

                                  Hannah smiled at Vision, she had no interest in him romantically, but she enjoyed the friendship with him.

                                   

                                   

                                  Chapter 6

                                  “And that’s the target range,” Cooper stated, pointing to the empty space in the trees where targets stood high on stands.

                                  Pietro nodded, still holding the handle of the ranger tight. Wanda had basically lectured him about being careful while riding in it. She hadn’t even wanted him to go, but he wanted a tour of the place, and Cooper had been more than willing to do it.

                                  “So how many acres is this place?” Pietro asked, they had been driving for what felt like forever.

                                  “About one hundred and thirty, and I’ve explored all of it, well… every part of it I’m allowed to,”

                                  “And what’s your favorite spot?”

                                  “Right here,” Cooped pulled the ranger to a sudden stop, making Pietro lean forward in his seat. “Sorry…”

                                  “It’s fine,” Pietro looked up to see a giant maple tree, and nested between the branches stood what looked like a small house, which included a door and windows.

                                  Cooper helped Pietro (who was still using crutches) out of the ranger.

                                  “What is it?”

                                  Cooper looked at him, in complete disbelief. “You don’t know what a tree house is?”

                                  “I was joking,”

                                  The truth was Pietro had no clue what a tree house was, why would he? Sure they had woods in Sokovia, but he had never spent much time in them, let alone building weird cottages in the trees.

                                  Pietro looked at the wooded boards that made a ladder up the tree and into the house.

                                  “So let’s go in,” Pietro stated, making his way over to the moss-covered tree trunk.

                                  “Are you sure you’re supposed to, with crunches and everything?” Cooper seemed hesitant.

                                  “I’m an Avenger, I can do anything,”

                                  “Except dodge bullets,”

                                  Pietro turned to the kid who was smirking, he definitely had his father’s snarkiness. He gave a fake offended look and then scowled at the kid.

                                  “Well, you should be glad I can’t,”

                                  Cooper shrugged and then walked over to help Pietro up the tree.

                                  Pietro managed to use his upper body strength to pull himself up and he let out a sigh of relief as he reached the top.

                                  His legs had been the most injured out of everything, which was a real shame since his power was literally running.

                                  Cooper got to the top and put his legs between the railings that surrounded the porch, looking at the line of trees in front of them.

                                  “Nice view,”

                                  Cooper nodded. “I like coming here, it’s like my getaway spot,”

                                  “What are you trying to get away from?” Pietro asked, almost in a whisper.

                                  “Reality, like whenever my Dad’s away and we’re left wondering if he’ll come back,”

                                  “I get that,” Pietro looked into the horizon.

                                  “Thanks,”

                                  Pietro turned to Cooper. “For what?”

                                  “Saving my Dad’s life,” Cooper gave a sincere smile, that showed the relief he had that his Dad was alive.

                                  It was a face similar to Wanda’s when she had seen Pietro open his eyes.

                                  “It was nothing,” Pietro shrugged.

                                  “It wasn’t to me, it was everything,”

                                  Pietro looked at the kid and then back to the horizon. His body shook, and pain came back to him. Cooper was only a year older than Pietro had been when his parents died. So his statement had hit deep.

                                  Cooper tossed a stick off the tree house, it hit a tree and caused a loud noise to be made.

                                  The noises, the pain, it all fit together and suddenly Pietro was back to that place…

                                  Ten-year-old Pietro looked at the bomb and then at his sister. Wanda had tears coursing down her cheeks, her face going pale with fear and sorrow. 

                                  Pietro glanced back at the shell again, the words written in white appeared on it. 

                                  Stark Industries… 

                                  “Pietro! Wake up, please wake up!” Cooper pleaded.

                                  Pietro’s eyes blinked open, aching pain filling his body. He looked up to see the bottom of the tree house, which meant he was on the ground.

                                  Had he fallen?

                                  “Are you okay?” Cooper asked.

                                  Cooper’s face was as pale as a ghost, he must’ve thought he was dead or something.

                                  Pietro nodded, slowly getting up. Cooper handed him his crunches and then continued to help him to the ranger.

                                  The ride was silent, Cooper was not sure what to say to Pietro, and Pietro was not sure what to say to Cooper.

                                  When they came to a stop in front of the house, Wanda came running out, it was pretty obvious that Pietro was more hurt than he had been before the tour.

                                  “What Happened?”

                                  “Nothing,” Pietro shrugged.

                                  Wanda raised an eyebrow. “Really?”

                                  “I’m fine, and will you stop worrying about me,”

                                  Wanda crossed her arms, walking closer to Pietro. She looked at Cooper, and then at Pietro, tears filling the brim of her eyes. She spoke in a low whisper. “I can’t… because I thought I lost you… and it killed me,”

                                  Pietro wiped the tears from his sister’s eyes, smiling at her. “But you didn’t, I’m right here,”

                                  Wanda nodded. “Keep it that way, please…”

                                  Do me a favor…. Tell Cress I meant it
