An hour had passed and Olivia went into the shower to freshen up while everyone else fixed the compound. Izzy hadn't been seen since Wanda took her away. She began to grow worried about the absence of her best friend.

With a towel around her neck, Olivia entered her bedroom and halted at the sight of Izzy, perched on the side of her bed with her head in her hands. She had changed out of her suit. Olivia took the towel off and slung over the back of her desk chair.

"Hey there." Olivia mumbled, wandering over to her bed and sitting by her friend. Izzy continued to cry quietly, lifting her head up and wiping the tears.

"I'm a monster, Liv..."

"Hey, come on. You're no monster. You tried to save all of us. Save your friends."

"My dad would never do this. He'd never kill someone so...violently."

"Have you met your dad?"

"What were we thinking? We're not even avengers! We're not part of this...family."

"Hey!" Olivia exclaimed, shuffling and kneeling before Izzy, placing her hands on her arms, "We make our own family's, I'm glad to be a part of yours."

Izzy looked up with dried up eyes and a weak smile, before launching into her friends arms for a hug. The two chuckled quietly until the door opened, silencing them and pulling them apart.

"I thought you'd be in here." Wanda grinned, leaning against the door frame. Olivia stood back up, snatching the towel off of the chair and continuing to dry her hair. Wanda paced over to Izzy, sitting by her and wrapping her arm around her shoulders. The door flew open again, a panicked Natasha running in.

"I've been looking all over for you." She panted out, skipping over to Olivia and pulling her into a hug, clutching at her wet hair.

"I was just in the shower." Olivia chuckled. They pulled away and Natasha looked over to Izzy. She climbed onto Olivia's bed and hugged Izzy from behind, pressing a kiss against her hair.

"You okay, kid?"

"Yeah, I should be okay." Izzy shrugged. The door opened again, with Carol and Hope strolling in.

"Oh let's just get everyone in here then!" Olivia exclaimed, flailing her arms about.

"We wanted to check on you both. We would probably all be dead if it wasn't for you guys." Carol grinned, patting Olivia on the back. Hope sat on the bed, snuggling next to Wanda.

"Where'd you even get those suits from? Did Tony make those for you?" Hope questioned, looking between the two. Izzy lifted her head and shot a glance over to Olivia, who nodded.

"I made them." All eyes turned to Izzy, with open mouths.

"You do that and train together?" Wanda asked.

"They train?" Carol asked.

"Every night while you guys are doing whatever. No one goes in the training room when we're there." Olivia explained.

"I caught them. They're very good." Wanda added.

"They must be if they can battle against an explosion." Natasha smirked, glancing to Olivia and winking. Carol turned to the blushing brunette, nudging her.

"I'm just glad I got my shield back." Olivia grinned, reaching behind her and pulling the vibranium, sliding it onto her arm. All the girls groaned.

"You and that damn shield."

"Izzy made it too!" Olivia yelled.

"What did Tony teach you, little one?" Hope asked, astonished at Izzy's intelligence.

"Just a few things, everything I tried by myself. I even have," She pulled down the shoulder of her shirt and revealed the button implanted into her skin, "this."

"You two are crazy. Izzy's the brains and Olivia's the brawn..." Carol said.

"I guess we make a pretty good team." Olivia beamed pridefully.

"I guess we do."
