*Song: Slipping Through My Fingers by Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried*
a/n: this song is what I pictured Tony and Pepper feeling about Ophelia leaving.

Today is the day I leave for a different galaxy. I have been training all week with Nat and Steve. And when I'm not training I am spending time with Tony and Pepper. As much as they understood why I am are leaving, I could tell it was still upsetting them. I mean I get it I am their only child and spend every day with them. Me not being around is going to be a big change.
I was packing my bag when I got a message from Fury asking to meet. I figured Nick Fury is not a patient man so I better head down right away.
When I got to Fury's office he was standing at his desk opening and sorting through files.
I cleared my throat to announce my arrival and without saying a thing he motioned me in the room, closing the door with a button.
"So, Ophelia I assume you know why I called you in today. There is something you need to know before you leave."
I nodded my head and waited for him to continue.
"There is a force more powerful than any one of avengers. His name is Thanos. I have no idea what he has planned but if he comes to Earth we need to be ready. This battle is going to take all of us."
"Okay I get this is a big threat but why are you telling me? You know my dad created a phone that will work through the galaxies so I will come back if you call. You don't need to ask me to stay. I won't be gone forever."
" I am not asking you to stay. Thanos is from this galaxy, not the one you are going to but I think you will be able to get help from the other galaxy if we need it. I need you to train in any way while you are there. I am not joking when I say this is a nuclear-level threat. We have help that you don't even know of but this could be world-ending."
"How do you know about this and who else knows?"
"No one knows except me and you. It will stay that way, you hear me. And I know because it's my job to know. Ophelia, I take my job seriously and so should you so while you're gone train and make allies. Be the soldier you were born to be."
"Wow Fury, I think that was the sweetest thing you have ever said to me."
"If you tell anyone about this your death will look like an accident."
"And... way to ruin a moment. Fury I won't let you down."
"I know."
With that, I left the office to go get ready for my fast arriving departure.

The team and I sat around the table sharing one last family meal. It was silent. I could tell Tony, Pepper, and even Steve were all hanging by a thread. Yes, it is sad I am leaving but it's not forever. I just wish they could see that. They all looked at me like I was going to die there so I figured it was probably time to break the silence.
"Hey, maybe when I get there I'll actually get to properly meet that guy I have seen the past two times. I wonder what his name is?"
"WHAT GUY?!" Tony and Steve yelled at the same time.
