Legends Never Die

Chapter 30

They returned to the tower, with Peter attached to the hip, 

not that Tony minded, but it worried her. 

She tucked him into bed, which he now saw as he was here.

 Tony kissed his forehead, "Goodnight baby spider".

 Peter smiled, "Goodnight mama Stark". 

Those words never failed to warm her heart.

 She turned to leave, but Peter latched onto her wrist.

 Quinn flinched, bringing her out in a small terrified voice. 

"No, please, let me go".

 She tugged on her wrist, trying to free herself.

 Stephen, who was leaning against the doorway waiting to tuck Peter in, now walks carefully to Tony. 

Peter loosened her grip on Tony, trying to calm her down.

 "Quinn?" He asked softly, trying to bring her closer.

 She stilled, but was tense, "Who's asking?" 

She spoke with danger in her voice. 

Stephen side stepped so he could be seen in her side vision, 

and she nearly jumped back in fright. 

"We're friends, I promise we won't hurt you". 

She looks at Stephan, then to the eye of Agamotto.

 "Time?" 

She asked hopefully, reaching out to the stone.

 Time flew out and towards her, "Hello Quinn, what was the last thing you remember?" He asked softly. 

She looks around then at Time, "I remember you asking me about Tony Stark, and your offer", 

she looks to Peter and Stephen, "and it looks like I said yes". 

Peter nodded, trying to step closer to Quinn, "My name is Peter-"

 "Tony's son, yeah, he loves you a lot, like he would die again if it meant you and Morgan would live". 

She looked at Stephen, "At first he thought you were what he once was, arrogant and selfish, 

but he saw who you really were quickly. He absolutely adores and loves you". 

She suddenly pales and stumbles back, placing a hand on her forehead. 

She breathed in a shaky breath, looking up, seeing Peter and Stephen in front of her. 

"Itsy Bitsy, what are you doing out of bed?", Tony asked, confused.

 "I was just coming to grab you and Peter to see if we want a slumber party in the living room?"

 Stephen asked, cutting off Peter. 

Tony shrugged, "I don't see why not", 

she turned and pointed to the door, "To cuddle puddle central!" Leading the charge into the living room. 

Stephan and Peter didn't say anything to Tony about meeting Quinn, however brief, they didn't know what to do about it. 

The next day, Reed Richards came over for a science experiment. 

Let's say it did not go well, one minute Tony's in the lab, messing with her Jarvis glasses, 

and then, there's a red hole beneath her that drops her. 

She lands on her feet, clutching the glasses and nanite armor when the portal closes. 

"Well that's just great.."she grumbles. 

She whips the glasses on, not looking behind her yet, 

"Jarvis, where the hell are we... why is the compound still here, please tell me we didn't travel in time...I can't deal with that". 

"Tony, there are people behind you, they'll have more answers". 

She turns, tucking the nanite star in her back pocket, 

to see the old team, well mostly. 

Steve, Nat, Clint, Scott, Sam and Wanda take defensive postures. 

"Who the hell are you?" Steve asks.

 "Well that sounds like time travel...Damnit Reed!", Tony groans.

 "I can explain Steve, one question though, what year is it?" 

Nat frowns at Tony, "it's 2018...". 

"What.... that doesn't makes sense... you weren't... SHIT.....stupid multiverse". 

"REED! I SWEAR TO GOD IF THERE IS SOMEONE ELSE HERE, YOUR A DEAD MAN", 

a too familiar males voice yelled as a metal door lifted. 

"That's new..." Tony remarked. 

Clint looked confused, but Stark walked through and stared at Tony. 

"Before you kill your Reed, just know mine did the same thing". Tony said with a smile.

 Stark tilted his head as Stephen walked in, "And who are you?" 

Stark said, a note of fear in his voice. 

Tony was the only one to hear it, and probably Stephen. 

Tony crosses her arms, "I'm Tony Stark, nice to meet you, 

Jarvis say hi, you only get one chance to be in a alternate universe". 

That's when all hell broke loose. 

This wasn't in the original plot.....but I love this idea, plus, this is a crossover with another fic of mine Reconciliation.
