Y/n Stark

Meeting

Y/n POV
Wanda hung up on the phone call and brought her attention back to me. „Who was it?" she put her phone into the back pocket of her jeans and said „it was Nat.. she wants us to come back to the compound. We have a meeting to attend to." I didn't know how to fell about this meeting but I can sense something is off. „Is everything fine?" „We will find out. Nat said it has something to do with you so you need to be there too." okay that in fact is giving me anxiety. I still can't remember the last three years but it feels like I need to know as soon as possible. If it's about me I need to be completely aware of everything from the past years. „Guess we Need to leave then." I stood up and so did Wanda at the same time. I moved to the door to exit but Wanda held me back as she placed her hand on my shoulder to turn me around. She looked me in the eyes trying to Scan for anything but I didn't know what she wanted.
„Are you okay with leaving? There is so much going on with you and I don't want you to dive into everything directly." I smiled at her slightly. Clearly a fake smile but I got a lot of life experience to fake a smile to make it believable. „I'll be fine Wanda. Thanks." I placed my hand on hers to stroke it for a moment but I let go and turned to exit.

We both made our way into the compound heading immediately to the meeting room where everyone gathered around. All of them where discussing and debating on something. They where all so invested into their opinions that they didn't notice that Wanda and I walked in. I glanced at Wanda for a moment and so did she. I looked back at everyone and cleared my throat to gain their attention. It went quiet for a moment and they all looked into our direction. „Finally you're here. We have something to discuss." dad approached us to sign that we should sit down for this talk. Seems important since everyone was yelling at each other. „So what is going on? It seems like you all were almost ripping you're heads off." I motioned between the team and they glanced at each other for a moment. Steve then slides a business card into my direction and I stop it immediately with my fingers. I looked down and my eyes widen for a moment to acknowledge what I had right before me. „Dose the Name Special Agent Schmidt Tell you anything?" it actually does. But I didn't think that he would be appearing. „Does it Ring a Bell?" dad asked ripping me out of my thoughts. I feel how Nat and Wanda are practically staring at me waiting for an answer. „Unfortunately it does. Director of the military counterintelligence."
„Good so you do remember him?" Steve nod at me.
„Sadly yes. He is a prick and full of himself. He can be a pain in the ass and is a hard pill to swallow." dad raised his brows at my answer. „What do you know about him?" I scoffed at everyone „there isn't much to tell except that he is a sexist and narcissistic. I crossed paths with him a couple times and it was always hard to work with him. He was always trying to get rid of me in the project I was working on with th-." I stopped for a moment. „With Thomas.." was the last thing I said as I lowered my head. Everyone noticed how my mood changed and Nat tried to get my mind of from Thomas. „They we're looking for you and not in nice way. We think they are after you and after the informations on the flash drive." my attention went immediately to Nat as she said flash drive. „On the flash drive are all my records of the last years. But what is more important is, is that there isn't everything on it." dad and Steve looked confused at each other and then back at me. „What do you mean honey? Where is the rest?" I didn't had to say anything I just raised my hand and pointed at my temples. Everyone started to realize that the informations are in my brain. „Their up her but I can't remember them since I lost most of them. So I need to look at the flash drive unfiltered. My memories need to be back completely there is to much on the line for this."

An unbearable silence builded up in the meeting room as I finished my last sentences. I don't know what it is but I feel like they want to prevent me from looking into the flash drive. „You can't prevent me from looking into the flash drive. I sacrificed so much for this so you better not hold back any of it." I pointed into dads and Steve's direction because I know damn well that they could keep something from me. „We won't. But are you ready for it honey?" dad asked concerned. I glanced at Wanda from the side of my eye just to see how worried she looks at me and so did Nat. „Even if I am not we can't wait any longer for me to feel better. This has to be done."
„It doesn't need to be done directly Y/n. It could still cause you damage and we want to keep that away from you." Steve said with a caring tone. „No you don't get it Steve. Nobody does. The people who are looking for me are not to mess with. They seem harmless at first but there not." „we will protect you no matter what. Did you forget that we are the Avengers?" dad answered full of himself. Avengers or not they are horrible. „Can I just please look into the stuff that is on the flash drive? There is no other way around to gain my complete memories back."
„There actually is." my eyes widened at the soft voice that came from my left. I turned my full attention to Wanda who sat there obviously anxious about what she said. Everyone looked at her confused. „What is it Wanda?" Nat asked curiously leaning forward to us on the table. She played with her rings under the table to comprehend her anxiety. „I can try to dig into you're mind to pull out you're memories. I have never done it but it.. it can work." she was clearly not sure about what she said. „No way witchy. I won't let you go into my daughters mind. We have to get them out naturally by showing her old memories and files." dad said with a bit anger in his voice. „Stop dad. She just wants to help. It isn't right to hiss at her like you do." „Y/n You're dad is right. I don't like agreeing with him but he has a point." „yeah the old man has finally agreed too. So there won't be any discussion about it." I glanced at Nat who hasn't said much about this whole situation. I took a hold of Wandas hand under the table and she looked up at me from the side confused and shocked. I didn't look at her while I said „at least let this be our last straw. If the first thing won't work I want Wanda to go through my mind and you can't talk me out of it even if it might be painful or dangerous." I squeezed her hand a bit and so did she. „Let's hope it won't be necessary." dad said and stood up to leave. „Where are you going?" he turned around for a short moment and answered „get everything ready for you to look at the stick." and he disappeared behind the door. „I have to do some calls." Steve stood up and gave me a soft smile as he left too. Now it was only Nat and Wanda who still sat with me.

„Are you really ready for it Y/n?" Nat asked directly without hesitation. „I am." I answered but to be honest I am not. „You do know that you can't fool me Y/n. Have you forgotten who I am?" Nat asked rhetorically while crossing her arms. „You know you don't need to do it." Wanda place her hand on my shoulder and I looked softly at her. „I need to Wanda. It's the only way." „at least let us be with you. We don't want you to go through that alone. It won't be easy." Nat said with a worried look on her face. They obviously know what's on that flash drive. „Sorry guys I said that I wanted you with me before but I feel like I need to do it alone. At least the first part." „No way. Y/n I am sorry to tell you this but I think you won't handle it. You've been through so much and I don't want you to get hurt." I scoffed at Nat for giving me such an answer in a overprotective tone that I haven't heard much from her. „I will handle it. You can wait outside if you don't want me to do it completely alone. Get behind a glass wall and watch me. If anything goes wrong I don't want to hurt anyone. It already happened when Wanda came to close." I lowered my head at the last words because I realized again that I did harm the most beautiful women I've known. „You haven't done anything wrong. It wasn't you're fault." Wanda stroked my shoulder while saying that. „Still I want to see the Footage alone. I will be fine." and I stood up to leave the girls behind that care so much for me.
