THREE - No Sudden Moves

"Tony? As in, Tony Stark?"

"In the flesh." He responded. "And you are?"

"Jade. Jade Mirren." She said softly.

"Good name, junior. You guys visiting? Want me to order takeout? What's the plan here?"

All of a sudden people started to walk in. Apparently they overheard, and wanted to see what was going on. A shorter man with greyish hair and glasses, that must be Bruce Banner, and Jade made eye contact with a girl with red hair when she gave her a slight smile in response.

"Look who decided to join the party." Tony started. "Agent Romanoff, and Dr. Banner. We have more, but most are on a mission I wonderfully organized."

"Oh, hello. I'm Natasha." She said with the sweetest voice, walking down some steps. "That's a new face. Who might you be?"

"I'm Jade."

"Welcome, Jade." She still carried the same smile, and Jade returned it.

"Tony, who's this?" Said Bruce.

"We have yet to find out, actually." Tony responded.

"Tony, this is urgent. I have to talk to you. Now." Strange said sternly.

Tony put away what he was working on and started to walk over to the doctor.

"Got it. Follow me to my lab will you? You too, Banner." He said. "And you, Romanoff. Moral support, that kinda thing."

They walked down a hallway to get to yet another set of doors. Tony put his hand against a scanner of some sort and the doors unlocked accordingly. The five of them stepped into a spacious room that looked a lot like a laboratory. Screens everywhere, unfinished projects, strange substances, and more.

"So, what's up doc?" Tony said as he leaned against a table.

"Tony." Strange rolled his eyes but continued. "Jade, here, has a very serious condition. There still is so much about her that I just can't figure out still. Long story short, she harnesses the same abilities as I do, and believe me, that doesn't just happen overnight, and she has no remembrance of how it happened. Up until now, she's been living a simple life in New York, unfazed."

Tony hummed as he pondered what he just said.

"Interesting. You know that this isn't really my strongest field, Strange. How am I of help in this situation?"

"Well, I was planning on bringing her somewhere else, until she started to experience excruciating pain throughout her body." He said. "Tony, I don't believe she even belongs in this universe."

Tony was taken aback by the last sentence, and walked around a tall hologram, clearing everything off of it so he could have a clean slate to dump his crazy ideas on.

"I got a couple of theories." He started. "Someone dropped her off and wiped her mind when she was old enough to live on her own."

"Why would anyone do that?" Jade spoke up gently. She knew she wanted answers. But alongside all of that, if what Tony was saying was true, deep down she was starting to hurt.
