"Come on Ray, we landed." Natasha shook the younger girl's shoulders and got her awake, Rhea's eyes opening before slamming shut again.

"God, my head is killing me." She croaked out, sitting up slowly from the bench. Rhea brought her hands up to her head and massaged her temples before looking out the open Quinjet door, "Where are we." She asked, only seeing farmland, she stood up and stretched.

"A safe house." Clint answered while walking towards the large yellow house in the distance. The group of Avengers walked out through the tall grass and farmland to the house, walking up the old stairs with a deadly silence covering them.

"What is this place?" Thor asked in an attempted whisper, Tony looked over and shrugged, "A safe house?"

They paused at the door, Clint took an audible breath, "Let's hope."

"Honey. I'm home." Clint called; Rhea shot her head towards him with a questioning glare as the Avengers all squeezed through the entry way and stood awkwardly in the old, rural living room. Everyone stayed focused when a very pregnant woman walking in.

"Hi. Company. Sorry I didn't call ahead." Clint said, approaching the woman.

Tony mumbled to Thor while Rhea just stood, mouth open, staring at the scene in front of her. Clint and the woman kissed, and Rhea looked over to Natasha to see her smiling, not slightly fazed by this, Rhea tilted her head at the red head, signaling her confusion. Natasha just laughed under her breath at her, confusing Rhea more.

"Gentleman, Rhea. This is Lauren." Clint introduced this woman to the team, "I know all your names." Laura said with a smile and Rhea continued to stare with furrowed brows. Clint noticed and walked forward a bit, "My wife." He spoke.

"O-Oh." Rhea stuttered, "Hi." She smiled at Laura awkwardly while the rest of the team stayed quiet. An approaching cheer pulled all their eyes to the doorway, where two children ran in towards Clint.

"Ooh, incoming." He laughed and picked up the girl, hugging the boy into his waist. Rhea smiled at the encounter and watched the reunion, even Natasha new the children, which all made sense to Rhea when Clint explained his reasons for keeping his family secret.

Thor then walked out of the house and Steve followed. Rhea stood next to Tony and blankly watched the door with the man, waiting for someone to walk in but instead just heard a loud bang echo through the area. Rhea realized, Thor had left, and Steve came back inside.

The Avengers had all been given rooms to sleep in, some of them having to share so Rhea offered to stay with Clints daughter, Lila. Rhea walked into the small pink bedroom followed by the young girl smiling behind her.

"You've got a cute room." She said turning around to face the child. The girl smiled up at her, walking towards her bed in the corner, "Thank you." She sat down on the mattress, "What is your room like?" She asked softly.

Rhea smiled and joined Lila on the bed.
"At the compound it's nice, pretty boring but really, I'm from outer space. I lived on a planet called Krypton, things were very different there, more technology than you could imagine and little bots that followed you around everywhere." Lila smiled at her to continue.

"My parents were sort of royalty, the famous house of EL. I lived in this beautiful tower with large windows looking over beautiful buildings. My room was nice, lots of toys, a bed, and tables full of pictures, I mean what else could you ask for?" Rhea laughed at herself, looking down at the shine in Lila's eyes. "Well, what happened? Why are you here now?" The young girl asked.

Rhea stopped for a moment, thinking of the easiest way to say it. "My people didn't appreciate Krypton's beauty. We lost everything because of greed. When I was thirteen, everything went bad. My parents sent me away as Kypton was destroyed, Ive lived on earth ever since. I don't want what happened to my planet to happen to yours, that's why I work with your dad to protect it and keep you safe." Rhea smiled and tapped Lila's nose to cheer things up. She laughed and got up from her bed.
