fem Spider Girl/ Penny Parker 

The alarm blared in Penny Parkers room in the Avengers Compound. The team was spending a training weekend up there and they all needed to be up by 8 to start training. Penny groaned, the alarm hurting her ears more than normal, slapping the alarm off and rolling back into her bed, pressing her pillow to her ears to dim the sounds of everyone around the compound. 

The Avengers had known about Penny Parker for a few months, after the Rogue Avengers returned from hiding after being pardoned and agreeing to sign the new accords that Penny had helped Mr. Stark write up. Despite a little rocky first meeting, the rest of the Avengers grew to love the sweet girl who has somehow managed to get Tony Stark to open up. 

Penny's head hurt, and when she tried to open her eyes she quickly shut them with a whimper. Barely able to process what was happening she knew she was having a sensory overload. Penny had been very busy the past few weeks between school, patrol and her internship with Mr, Stark she was over exhausted, it all added up and how everything hurt the girls heightened senses. 

Soon people were banging on her door, which is soon pushed open by an over excited Pietro maximoff. "Come on Spiderling! Time for training get up!" 

Penny groans, pushing the pillow harder against her ears, but then the texture of the pillow on her face causes her to cry out in pain. Throwing herself out of the bed and into a corner with just a small blanket around her. 

Pietro rushes out of the room, dragging Tony Stark into the room with his super speed "What the hell Pietro! What do you think your are doing!" Penny whimpers from the corner, Tony turning his full attention to the young girl. 

Rushing over to her, Tony leans down next to her, "Pen, Kid are you okay?" Tony asks softly, gently stroking the girls hair pulling her to his chest. Penny cries out softly in pain before letting out a whisper "Senses" 

Tony nods, standing, pulling the girl into his arms and carrying her to the sensory deprivation room they built just for this case. The other Avengers had been gathered by Pietro and are now follow Tony who holds the whimpering girl, and tries to walk as smoothly as possible to not cause her more pain. 

The other Avengers had never seen this happen before and were not sure what was going on. "Stark what is going on, what ails the Lady of Spiders" Thor hollers, his voice never being much quieter than a yell.

Glaring at Thor, he shushes the group, now settling Penny into the lightly padded room, placing glasses and headphones on her head. After placing a gentle kiss on her forehead, Tony leaves the room, which soon goes pitch black inside. A small night vision monitor sits the room, which Tony takes before sitting on a couch situated outside the room. 

"Whats wrong with her Stark" Steve asks, crossing his arms staring into the dark room, where he can see Penny slightly relax. 

"Her senses are dialed to like an 11, everyone once in a while she gets this sensory overload where everything hurts. Its overwhelming, so we have this room to deprive her brain of the sense, it doesn't work completely as she can still see, smell, taste, hear and feel in there but it lowers it so it is not as painful."

Natasha sits on the couch next to Tony taking the monitor from his hands, Penny can be seen relaxed, almost half asleep in the corner of the room. "I take it that means training is canceled for today?" 

Tony nods, running a hand through his hair "yeah, she will be better in an hour, but then she will feel really sick for about 12 more hours. For someone who never gets sick, this always knocks her out hard" 

"How many times has this happened Tony" Bruce asks, going over a health chart of Penny that Tony has to track these things. Tony shrugs, "Not very often, this is the fourth time its happened around me, sometimes she has smaller ones, more like a panic attack but this is a full scale one. She should be fine by tomorrow." sighing again "the first time it happened I swear I thought she was dying, never seen the kid sick, barely knew her for 4 months but she dragged herself into the lab knowing she felt bad because she didn't want to disappoint me."

The team all settles outside the more, everyone can see how stressed Tony is now that his favorite intern is in pain but he knows this will pass. Natasha offers to stay with Penny so the others can go train, and Thor drags Tony off with them. 

About an hour later, Penny pulls her headphones and glasses off. Dragging herself to her feet, pulling her blanket tighter around herself she moves to exit the room. Outside Natasha is waiting for her, Natasha places a soft arm around the sickly girl and helps her walk to the main floor of the tower. Settling Penny on the couch, Natasha goes to get the girl some food. 

Slowly Natasha helps Penny eat some soup, the girl barely having enough energy to hold a spoon. Soon Penny is curled up again Natashas side as she drifts off into a peaceful sleep.
