Pyro and the Hulk (book 2: B. Banner X OC)

17

Bruce finally wakes up after an hour and we both decide to sit outside. Bruce was sat on the on the porch while I was sat on the step below him between his legs as his arms rest on my shoulders. I lean back into him and smile when he kisses my head. 

It was time like these that I wished our lives were different. Lazing around in the evening as we watch the kids play around in the yard. But I knew that would never be. I loved how we were. I loved my powers and Jace's. I love Hulk and Bruce. We may never be a 'normal' family. I was okay with that. I was broken out of my thought when I hear Lilly scream out. "Momma look!"

I look over and freeze. She was knelt on the ground with an dead foul in front of her. I stood up to pull her away from it, but before I could step any closer. My daughter closed her eyes and reached her hands out she didn't touch the animal but hovered above it. 

"Baby, it's dead. Leave it" Bruce speaks up from next to me and the others come near when they hear the commotion. I kneel next to her and see a tear fall down her face. I carefully wipe it away before I feel a pulse of some kind of energy. I watch curious as the Foul begins to heal, its wounds close and it slowly starts to breath. 

I gasp in shock as the small animal stood back up as if nothing had happened. It looked at me before nudging its black nose against Lilly's making her giggle happily. After it runs off into the woods Lilly turns to me and I see her eyes had turned back to the violet they were when she was a baby but this time they swirled with a vivid pink for a moment before it faded.

"Thank you for healing it momma." She flings herself as me and I fall backwards as I catch her. "Sweetie, I didn't do that. You did"

She pulls away from me looking as shocked as everyone else. "I have powers?"

"Seems so Lily-pad" Tony was the first to snap out of his shock and swoops his niece off the ground before swinging her high in the air with a chuckle. I was still sat on the grass as my eyes begin to water. My little girl had powers. She could bring something back from the dead. I was happy, over the moon actually but a part of me was terrified. If anyone found out what she was capable of they would want to take her from me, from us, ad use her ability for them selves. 

Bruce comes over and helps me up before taking Lilly from Tony and hugging her close. My fiancé and I seem to of had the same though as he looked to me with a look of fear. The rest of the adults seem to catch on and gave a look of sympathy. 

"Lilly flower. I am so happy that you have powers but you need to promise me that you won't tell anyone about what you can do. The power you have is unheard of. I want you to be careful okay baby?" I hold Lilly's hand as I speak to her and she listens intently as she notices my serious tone. 

"I promise Momma." Bruce and I both kiss her cheek as Jace wraps his arms around our waists. We all hug each other and everyone else goes back to what they were doing. When we pull away from each other the mood was a lot lighter as the kids all played together. I lean on Bruce as we watch them play with Cooper and Lila. 

"We need to keep her safe. Nick will show up soon, I want her to go with him until the fight with Ultron is over." 

"She not going to like that."

"I know but I can't loose my baby. I won't." My voice breaks at my tears begin to fall. Bruce hugs me tight and I hide my face in his shoulder while her rocks us side to side slightly. 

I finally calm down and look up only for Bruce to kiss away my tears. I chuckle before kissing him and joining the others. I smirk when I see Jace using his powers so I create a multitude of animals with my fire and wrap each on in a shield so they could be touched and let them run around them. The laughter increases and Laura almost passes out she she Lila on the back of an elephant made of fire.

"Relax I wouldn't have done it if they where going to be in danger." She gives me a glare before laughing and going to pet the lioness that walked over to us. 

Laura asks Tony to fix the tractor and I go and take his place chopping firewood with Steve. I take up the hoodie I was wearing revealing the sports bra I wore underneath. "So what did you see?"

Steve looks at me for a moment but I simply place another log onto the stump and swing the axe down breaking it perfectly down the middle. With the way Tony and Steve where going earlier the Barton's would have enough firewood to last for the next two winters, but I had to admit it was a great stress relief. 

"Peggy" Was all Steve said and I simply nod knowing if he didn't want to talk about then I wasn't going to push. 

We continue until I'm sweating and out of breath. I see Tony walking out of the barn with Nick behind him. When my kids wee him they run over. "Uncle Nick!" Nick catches them both and hugs them. Since Lila was no longer playing with the fire animals and Cooper had gone back to helping Clint fix the banister I remove the shields before pulling the fire back into me. My veins turn a red and orange before fading.
