13 year old orphan, Aspen is all anyone has talked about. Aspen has had her powers for months and she's out of control. The only ones who can help her is the Avengers.
This is the story of how Aspen became an Avenger and the badass she was meant to...
"You said Gatlin adopted you after her mother died. Is he immortal too?" Aspen asked.
"My adoptive mother died", Thadden said.
"Why did you need to be adopted?" Aspen asked.
"Well I'm 17 in human years. I lied and told her I was 15", Thadden said.
"How are you still here?" Tony asked.
"After my daughter was born, I spent 4 years in Asgard. When I came back, my wife was ill. A few months later, she died and I was left to take care of my daughter. For 80 years, I hoped that I would start aging, but I never did and I had to watch my daughter die. For the rest of the years, I've been isolated in my home until in 1964 when I decided to burn it to the ground", Thadden explained.
"What do you want, huh? Why are you here?" Aspen asked.
"It's obvious. He wants you", Natasha said.
"I'm not trying to hurt Aspen. I'm trying to protect her", Thadden said. "Her father isn't who he used to be. He doesn't care anymore".
"How do we know we can trust you?" Steve asked.
"Well I'm the one who saved Aspen when she was a baby", Thadden said. "That's all you need to know. I'm sure this is all a lot to process".
"I should get to bed. I have a school to run tomorrow", Aspen said before she walked out of the room.

Aspen walked into the kitchen to eat breakfast. Thor and Loki sat at the table. Loki was reading a book and Thor was eating pop tarts.
Aspen walked towards the coffee maker. When she turned around, Loki stood next to her. Aspen gasped.
"Don't scare me like that again", Aspen said.
"How'd you sleep?" Loki asked.
"You're doing it again", Aspen said.
"If only I knew what you were talking about", Loki said. Aspen rolled her eyes.
"You ask me questions like 'how are you feeling' and 'how did you sleep' when you're concerned about me. Just because I'm Asgardian, doesn't mean you should treat me any differently", Aspen said.
"What if Thor spoke to you?" Loki asked.
"You realize me and your brother have never had a conversation, right? Just small talk", Aspen said to Loki. "I have to get to the school".
