I have 2 more chapters!!!
Chapter 4
“I hope you guys will be okay.”
Clint shrugged and closed the locker. “I’m sure we’ll be fine, Kate.”
Kate grinned, flicked back a strand of her dark brown hair that had purple tips on the end. “I can get him with an arrow if I see him.”
Clint slowly nodded. “Mm, tempting, but maybe not the right way to handle it.”
“Probably true,” Kate sighed, “I just don’t want to see you guys hurt.”
Clint squeezed her shoulder and smiled faintly. “We’ll be okay Kate, don’t worry about us.”
“Did you two see the news?” Laura asked, walking up, schoolbook in hand.
Clint nodded. “Yes ma’am, that’s what we were just talking about. Heading to Math?”
Laura nodded. “Sure am. Hi Kate.”
“Hi Laura. Hey, uhm, see you two later I guess.” Kate winked. “Better keep my bow and arrow ready for a certain Mr. Pierce.”Clint chuckled and waved.
Kate waved back, gave Laura a friendly smile, and headed off down the hall to her own freshman classes.
Clint faced Laura. “Why were you asking about the news?”
“Nothing much,” Laura gave him a small smile, “just worried about you and your family.”
Clint dropped his girlfriend a reassuring smile. “We’ll be okay, Laura. Pierce isn’t dumb enough to come after us again, trust me.”
Laura bit her lip. “If you’re sure.”
Clint draped an arm around her shoulders and smiled. “Trust me, Laura, I’m sure. Now come on, let’s get to Math.”
~*~
Bruce blew a lock of his curly black hair out of his eyes, leaning back against his locker, free with plenty of extra time in between classes.
“Hey Bruce.”
“Oh, hey Nat. You okay?”
His sister shrugged, pushing a strand of her red hair behind her ear, her black earrings shining in the light from the ceiling. “I don’t know, I guess.”
“Alice?”
It was more than just a lucky guess.
Natasha slowly nodded. “Yeah. I thought she’d calm down once we got to high school…but I think she just got worse, and now she has an even bigger and crueler posse of girls with her.”
Bruce bit his lip.
Though he was used to bullies, he didn’t have one single bully that always picked on him.
Even Alec had eventually backed off a little, although not completely.
Alec was back at school. Apparently his “sickness” wasn’t severe and didn’t last long enough to keep him home for more than a day.
If his sister and mom were trying to sell something false, they were failing completely.
If he was really sick, he’d be gone for more than a day, unless he had just pretended.
But chances were that he wasn’t sick or pretended to be sick…he was away from school so he could break his father out of prison.
“Yeah, I’m sorry she’s being a jerk, Natasha…I wish I could help somehow.”
Natasha smiled gently. “Thanks Bruce.”
He smiled at his older sister.
A flurry of white, black, and blue rushed by, and Natasha was shoved up against a locker. “Ah, hey, let go you big jerk!”
Natasha kicked out at Alec, but he dodged her attacks and merely grinned. “Aww, that the best you got, Nattie?”
“Don’t call me that.” Natasha snarled, grabbing Alec’s wrist, and twisting it, hard.
Alec hissed and let go of her, and Natasha ran to Bruce’s side, glaring daggers at Alec. “You can’t stop being a jerk even for one day!? Lay off already. We’ve been here for two years, when are you going to leave us alone?”
“Aww, did I hurt your feelings, Nattie?” Alec leaned against a locker and leaned close, too close…to Natasha. “I don’t want to have to fight a pretty girl.”
“Then leave us alone.” Natasha retorted, partially shoving him out of the way. “Come on Bruce, let’s get to class.”
Bruce nodded. “Yeah, let’s go.”
“Aww, don’t leave so soon.” Alec practically whined. “The fun’s just now getting started.”
He grabbed Natasha’s hair and pulled her back.
Natasha fought him back, but she continued to fight him back, hissing, snarling things at him, kicking and punching.
“Let her go!”
Alec faced Bruce with a smirk. “And what are you going to do about it, four eyes?”
“I said…leave. Her. Alone.” Bruce snarled, fingertips turning green.
He tried to stop it, but he was still learning how to control it, and he couldn’t stop the slow spread of green.
He didn’t care if someone bullied him; he was used to it.
But no one, no one messed with his siblings.
Alec glanced at Bruce’s hands…and grinned. “Oh yeah, Bruce? Make me.”
He tossed Natasha aside. She slammed into another set of lockers and groaned.
Alec kicked her in the face.
Bruce roared.
Green covered his entire body.
Rage consumed him.
And he couldn’t contain his powers any longer.
Chapter 5
“Police have said that it was a miracle the teenage boy, Alec Pierce, survived. Jim Carson was able to get an interview with the mother of the attacked boy, and here’s what she-“ Nick turned off the news, unable to take it any longer.
“I didn’t mean to turn into the Hulk…” Bruce moaned, covering his face with his hands, seated on one of the living room couches.
Phil rubbed Bruce’s back. “We know, Bruce…trust us, kiddo, we know. It just happens sometimes, we know…”
“This is exactly what Pierce wanted…he got his son to do this.” Loki said, a hint of fury adding a hard edge to his voice.
“I know,” Nick stood, “and that’s what scares me the most.”
“He won’t just come after all of us, will he?” Pietro asked, blue eyes full of curiosity, questions.
“This is more than that…this is a plan to make us look guilty.” Vision whispered. He squeezed Wanda’s hand.
“I don’t like it…” Peter whined, sitting in Tony’s lap, his head on Tony’s chest.
Tony ran his fingers through Peter’s hair. “I know, Peter…none of us do. I guess I thought I’d leave this, didn’t want to worry you, Dad…but I found this on my desk at work.”
Nick took the folded piece of paper from Tony’s hand, quickly skimming through it.
It was a letter.
But it was more than a letter.
It was a letter that contained a threat.
“What-? How-?”
“I just found it on my desk at work. No one seemed to know who put it there or even how it got there, and…well…I kinda just assumed it was nothing, but…since Alec already purposefully made Bruce mad, I guess we probably all already know who this threat was from.”
Nick crumpled it in his hands.
This was madness.
But then again, was he supposed to put anything past Pierce anymore?
“Is someone gonna hurt you, Tony?” Peter whispered, yawning, still sitting in Tony’s lap.
Tony shook his head and stroked his youngest brother’s hair. “No, kiddo…none of us will let that happen…I’m not going anywhere.”
“We have to do…something.” Sam said, standing from where he had been sitting down in between Bucky and Steve.
“What can we do?” Wanda asked softly, eyes glowing red from stress. They seemed to do that both when she was using her powers and when she was in a strong emotional state.
Maria, sitting on the couch, reached over and grabbed Wanda’s free hand that wasn’t holding onto Vision, squeezing it. “We don’t know…but it will be okay, Wanda…it will be.”
The doorbell rang.
Maria stood. “I’ll get it.”
Nick watched her go, ready for anything…ready to fight if he had to.
“None of us will really be hurt…will we Bucky?” Becca asked, leaning against her brother, seated on the couch, playing with Bucky’s metal fingers.
Bucky smiled gently and kissed the top of his sister’s head. “Of course not, Becca…you know Dad, Uncle Phil, and Aunt Maria wouldn’t let that happen to any of us.”
A sob sounded, and Nick watched as Maria led a crying Jane into the living room and into an empty armchair.
Maria crouched in front of Jane. “Jane, Jane…shh, calm down. What’s wrong? There now, don’t cry…”
Sam handed Maria a box of tissues, and Maria handed them to Jane.
Jane took in several deep breaths, eyes full of concern, fright. “I-I-it’s Thor.”
“What about Thor!?” Loki cried, jumping up from where he had been sitting down, alarm in his blue eyes.
“He…he…ohhh,” Jane groaned and clutched her stomach, “he-he was at work, like-like normal…and, oh, this hurts,” she squeezed her stomach, “he-he didn’t come home today…he-he was supposed to be home two hours ago. H-his boss said he left over-over two hours ago…when he was supposed to…I-I tried calling him, and he-he never replied…” She groaned again.
Of course, Thor had been the first target.
He was the oldest of all of the kids, the one with a wife and babies on the way.
“Pierce.” Nick muttered; fists clenched.
Maria watched Jane with a worried frown. “We’ll have to find Thor…but don’t worry Jane, we will, I promise, we will…”
Jane nodded, face lined with pain…and she groaned, yet again. “I-I-I think there may-may be a-a-another problem…” Jane groaned again.
“Jane, what’s wrong?” Nick asked, going to his daughter-in-law’s side.
Maria slowly stood. “Jane? What’s-?”
“I-I-I think I-I’m having the b-b-b-babies.”

I have 2 more chapters!!!! 😍
Chapter 6
His wife wasn’t at their house.
His dad, Phil, Maria, and his siblings weren’t at the house.
So where was everyone!?
Thor had at least a dozen missed calls from Jane, all because of Pierce.
Sure, maybe a couple goons had cornered him, maybe they’d tried to kidnap him, but Thor knew how to fight.
He’d given them a licking they wouldn’t soon forget.
But one of them had given Thor a letter…with a threat that they would be back.
Hah, he’d like to see them try to take him on again.
His phone began ringing, and Thor took it out of his pocket.
An unknown number…probably a scam caller, but he answered it anyway, just in case it was someone that knew where his family was. “Hello?”
“Hello, Thor…”
“Pierce.” Thor practically growled, his free hand clenching into a fist, stopping right where he was walking on the sidewalk as car after car passed him by.
“Well, Thor…it seems as though my plan didn’t work. You took them on and defeated them easily…which is not what I had hoped for, but sometimes plans must change. One of them gave you the letter, correct?”
“What do you want, Pierce?”
“I’m merely warning you, Thor…I’ll be back. I’ve not given up yet.”
Thor hung up and began walking again.
He had to find his wife and the rest of his family…before it was too late.
~*~
“They’re adorable.” Nick whispered, holding one of his grandsons, yes, grandsons, in his arms.
Jane smiled gently, holding the other small boy, a few tears brimming her eyes. “I only wish Thor were here.”
“We’ll find him, don’t worry.” Nick whispered.
He turned his gaze back to the boy in his arms. With pale skin and a crop of dark brown hair from his mother, Nick could see more of Jane’s features than Thor’s.
The boy in Jane’s arms, however, with a bright mess of hair, had many of Thor’s features…Nick could already see it.
The boy in Jane’s arms was Ethan, Nick was holding Ean.
And they were his grandsons…his grandsons.
Nick felt tears threaten, but as per usual, he did shove them back.
The door to the hospital room practically burst open, and rushed footsteps sounded. “Jane, oh, Jane!”
“THOR!” Jane yelled, reaching for her husband, who raced to her side, taking her into his arms, kissing her over and over again. “Oh Thor…what happened?”
“That’s a story for another time,” Thor gently pulled away; his eyes widened, “are these them…are these our boys?”
Jane nodded, tears coursing down her cheeks. “This is Ethan. Your Dad has Ean.”
Thor gently took Ean from Nick’s arms, and his blue eyes filled with tears. “Oh, Jane…he looks so much like you…he’s so small and innocent…and so beautiful.”
“I know, I know…oh Thor, I’m so glad you’re back.”
Thor took the chair beside Jane’s bed, reaching over to kiss her again. “There’s no other place I’d rather be…”
Nick stood.
Asking Thor what had happened could be done later. For now, he needed time with his wife and his newborn sons.
Nick left the room, gently closing the door behind him.
He walked down the halls and into the waiting room, where everyone else sat. “Did any of you see Thor?”
Phil nodded. “We all did. Loki was actually the one to get ahold of him and call him and tell him what happened. Thor didn’t say exactly what happened…but we were right, it was Pierce.”
“Can I see the babies!?” Peter cried, eyes wide and bright with curiosity.
“Sorry kiddo,” Nick smiled and shook his head, “you’re gonna have to wait until they leave the hospital. They don’t want kids in there right now, for safety reasons. Besides, aren’t you going to a playdate today?”
Peter nodded eagerly. “Uh huh! With my friends MJ and Ned and MJ’s friend that’s a bit older than us, Sharon! I have all my toys in my backpack!”
Phil checked his watch and stood. “And it’s about time to go. You guys are going to be at Sharon’s cousin’s house, since Sharon is with them for the weekend, so while you play with your friends…Steve is going to spend some time with his girlfriend Peggy, who’s Sharon’s cousin.” He winked playfully.
Steve’s cheeks flushed a faint pink.
It was hard, letting them go, knowing Pierce was around…but Nick couldn’t keep them penned up at home, either.
“You two be careful. Keep an eye on Peter, will you Steve?”
Steve smiled and picked Peter up, even though he was eight, since Steve was highly muscular for a seventeen-year-old. “I won’t let anything happen to him, Nick, I promise.”
Chapter 7
Peter laughed.
This game called Hopscotch was so much fun!
MJ cheered. “Peter did it again!”
Sharon sighed. “Yeah…again…I guess you’re just that good.”
Two years older than them, Sharon seemed so much different, but she was nice too!
Not as nice as MJ and Ned though!
Peter handed Ned a rock. “Your turn, Ned! You gotta win this time!”
Ned smiled and began to play, stumbling a few times and laughing when he did.
He stumbled and fell on his face.
Peter rushed to him. “Ned, Ned, you okay!?”
Ned sat up, laughed, and nodded. “Yeah, I’m good! That was fun!”
Peter laughed.
Spending all day with his friends was the best thing in the world!
“You guys ready for some drinks?” Peggy asked with a smile, shoulder-length hair touching her shoulders as she tilted her head, raising an eyebrow, a hand on her hip.
Peter nodded. “I am!”
“Me too!” All of his friends cried.
Peggy laughed and turned around. “Alright, come on inside then.”
Peter followed her inside.
Peggy was so nice!
Her mommy and daddy were too, but they had to leave for an “emergency”, so Peggy and Steve were in charge.
Peter didn’t mind. He knew he was too little to be in charge of himself.
But he’d be nine before too long, a big kid!
Maybe then he could be in charge of himself.
Peter settled at the kitchen table with his friends, and Peggy handed each of them a juice box along with some apples and peanut butter.
His favorite!
Well, other than ice cream, because ice cream was just so delicious!
Peter chomped down on an apple slice, smiling, happy and content.
He couldn’t wait to get home and tell Tony and Uncle Phil and Auntie Maria and Daddy about this fun day!
Steve walked into the kitchen and smiled. “Everyone enjoying their snack?”
“Uh huh!” Peter crowed, biting another apple slice.
Peggy chuckled and leaned back against a kitchen counter. “They’re going to town on those apple slices and peanut butter.”
“It is delicious.” Steve mused. He took a slice from Peter and a small bit of peanut butter.
“Hey!” Peter cried, but he laughed, because it was silly of Steve to take one of his slices and some peanut butter.
He wasn’t too upset by it.
Peggy squinted and looked out the window, as the sky darkened outside. “Looks like it might rain soon. Is anyone done with their snack?”
Peter swallowed his last bite. “I am!”
“You don’t want the toys and equipment you four played with to get wet. Peter, do you wanna go pick them up, and the others will join you when you’re done?”
“Uh huh!” Peter jumped out of his seat. He grabbed Steve’s hand. “Come on, Steve, come help me!”
Steve chuckled and nodded. “Alright, alright, I’ll help you out.”
Peter giggled and led Steve outside.
They began working side by side, picking up toys and other play things Peter and his friends had played with.
It was so much fun, but it was about to rain, and Peter didn’t want all the toys to get wet! Then they’d be broken, and he didn’t want that!
They were almost done within a few minutes!
Footsteps sounded, and Peter felt himself get grabbed.
He screeched and kicked out.
“Peter!” Steve screamed, and Peter saw him get grabbed by two men dressed in black.
“Let! Me! Go!” Peter screamed, kicking and flailing at the person that held him, another man dressed in black.
“Peter! Ack, let go of me!” Steve yelled, pulling out of one of the men’s grips.
He pulled his arm back to punch the other, but the man quickly got out of the way and pressed a cloth against Steve’s face.
Steve pushed back, struggled…and then he went limp.
“NO! STEVE!” Peter screamed, crying, reaching for his brother…but they wouldn’t let him go to Steve.
“Let me go!”“Shh,” the man’s voice was hard, nothing like anyone’s voices at home…everyone was always so soft, “quiet, boy, or we’ll hurt him more.”
Peter quieted down for Steve…but he wanted to escape from these men…they were scary…and mean.
And they were carrying him and Steve away…and Peter didn’t know what to do to help Steve.
He could use his powers…but then they’d hurt Steve…and Peter wanted Steve to be safe.
@freedomwriter76 PETERRRRR!!!
And Steve….
BUT PETERRRR!!!!!!!

#IfMarcelDiesIRiot
#ProtectMarcel
#ProtectSebIn truth tho….Peter and Steve are probably the best pawns…
Peter is the baby…I mean everyone adores him and the baby is always the one they go for (Ik it’s an overused trope but that’s cuz it works…I mean…come on who doesn’t love the baby) so if they keep him I mean…they got the family in their palm
and STEVIE
I know Nick doesn’t have favorites but Steve and Nick seem to have such a close relationship. Definitely a daddy’s boy. And he’s #big brother, but also little brother to Thor and Loki, but he’s gonna try to be strong too for Peter and the others and Gah! Like seriously the two of them are the best pawns
