The secret Avenger

Chapter Two

The avengers arrived at a little house in the middle of nowhere. Everyone followed Clint into the house, and was immediately greeted by a pregnant woman. "Guys, this is my wife, Laura." Everyone was confused. Nobody spoke until children's laughter broke the silence. "Daddy!" Two small children ran and hugged Clint. This shocked everyone even more. "These are my kids, Cooper and Lila." Everyone was taken back by this news, everyone except Natasha. The kids ran up to her, calling her aunty Natasha so she obviously knew about Clint's secret family. She looked at Laura. "Where is she?" Just as she spoke them words, a 17 year old girl walked around the corner. She was the spitting image of Natasha. 

When she saw Natasha, she ran up to her and gave her a massive hug. "I saw what happened. Are you okay?" Natasha cupped her face and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "I'm okay baby, we just need to lay low for a while." 

Tony cleared his throat, obvious that he wanted to get their attention. Natasha turned around and glared at Tony. "Excuse me, but who is this?" 

Natasha looked at the girl, and then back at everyone else. "This is my daughter, Alex."

The news of Natasha's secret child obviously shocked everyone more than the news of Clint's secret  family. They only had one question. How? 

Natasha sat everyone down in the living room as she prepared herself to tell her story for the first time. 

"When I was 14, I was being trained to be an assassin. I was almost finished with my training. One night when I was alone in my room, one of the guys that I trained with, that I had to succeed fighting off before I passed, came into my room. At that point, I hadn't quite managed to succeed yet, and he knew that. He pinned me down and took advantage of me." Tears were falling down her face at this point. Alex stood next to her and squeezed her hand in support so that she could continue. "After he finished, he just left me there. I felt weak and defenseless. It turns out, I got pregnant. I had to keep it a secret. If they had found out, they would have killed her and then me. I had the baby in secret, and then I gave her to an orphanage and I told them I would be back for her. I had to go back, and graduate. But the thing is, when we graduate, the sterilize us because it gets rid of the possible distraction. That's how I knew Alex wouldn't be safe if there was any record of her ever existing, because they would just think that she is my weakness and my distraction. So a couple years after I graduated, I went back for her and I kept her a secret. The only people that knew about her before you guys were Fury and Clint. I send her up here when I have a mission so that she isn't on her own." 

Nobody knew what to say, except Tony, who didn't really have a lot of decorum about the situation. "You said that you saw what happened. What did you mean? You saw it on the news?"

Alex looked at the floor whilst she spoke. "No exactly." Natasha shook her head at her. "Alex, don't."

"Mom, I think they should know." She looked at everyone in the room individually. "I have super powers." 

Natasha put her head in her hands. Everyone else looked intrigued. "What sort of superpowers?" Asked Bruce.

"Well, I can heal any wound. I can make people see anything I want them too, and I can see through someone else's eyes."

Tony looked skeptical. "I have seen a lot of weird crap in my day, but I'm afraid we are going to have to see if to believe it."

Alex raised her eyebrow at Tony. "Fine, Steve stand behind Tony. Tony face me and put one hand behind your back and do either rock, paper or scissors. Steve, watch Tony's hand and I'm going to look through your eyes." Alex turned around so that she 100% couldn't see Tony's hand, then she closed her eyes tight and began to concentrate. After a second or two, she could see what Steve saw. She watched Tony's hand. "Rock...Scissors....Rock again....Paper...Middle finger..." She opened her eyes and turned back around. Everyone seemed impressed, except Tony. "What about the other things." Alex turned to Natasha. "He's a bit of a dick, isn't he?" Natasha smirked as Alex walked up to Tony. Without warning, she took out a small pocket knife and slashed open his hand. Tony yelled out in pain, whilst Alex tried hard to fight back a smile. She closed her eyes again as she wrapped both her hands around Tony's. Tony felt a slight heat in his hand, and when Alex removed her hand, the cut was gone. No trace that it was ever there in the first place. After that, he seemed both impressed and pissed off. As he sat back down, he turned to Natasha. "We could really use her on the team to stop Ultron." Natasha looked furious at the words that just came out of his mouth.

"I'm sorry, but that is not happening. You don't have kids, Tony so you don't understand, but I am not putting my daughter in harms way just so that we can win against Ultron. If she helped fight, and she died, then I would probably kill all of you." Tony looked taken aback. 

"It was just a suggestion."

"Don't worry, I have been begging her to let me help and come on missions. I watched the entire mission where she helped Steve take down Hydra and the Winter soldier, and she still wouldn't let me come. It's actually crap because I could help. I could make sure no one dies because of my healing abilities."

"Alex, I said no. That's my final word."
