Out Of Time

"Again," Thor said.

"I think she needs to rest, Thor," Steve said. "If we wear her out too much, she may never be able portal back."

Thor, Steve, and Y/N were currently in the training room. They had been practicing opening multiple portals, traveling long distances, and taking more that just Y/N through the portals. It had been about two weeks since Tony had gotten Y/N to stay put. It was nice, for everyone, to have Y/N in the Tower more.

"I'm fine, Stevie, really," Y/N panted, lightly. "I'll stop when it's too much."

"Are you sure?" Steve checked.

"I'm sure." Y/N nodded. "What do you want me to do now?"

"Let's see if you can control where the Captain's shield goes," Thor suggested.

"What?" Steve questioned.

"You throw the shield at Y/N, and we'll see what happens."

"I can do it, Steve. Just do it," Y/N urged. She readied herself on the other side of the training room. "Throw it Steve!"

Letting out a long sigh, Steve picked his shield up and threw it towards his sister. Y/N opened two portals. The shield entered the first one, placed right in front of Y/N. The second portal opened beside the first, lined up with Steve. The shield came flying out of it, heading towards Steve, who caught it.

"Very nice, Lady Y/N!" Thor clapped.

"How's it going in here?" Tony asked, strolling into the room.

"Lady Y/N is doing very well! I'm impressed."

"Thanks, Thor," Y/N commented as she lifted a water bottle to her mouth.

"You tired, sweetheart?" Tony asked, wrapping an arm around her waist and pressing a kiss to her cheek.

"Not too bad." She shook her head.

"You free? Someone's on the line for you."

"Really? Who?"

"Just come." Tony began leading Y/N towards the door. "I'll be taking Y/N for a while," Tony told the men. "Make sure to clean up after yourselves."

"Who is on the line, Tony?" Y/N asked as Tony pushed her into a conference room down the hall.

"Coulson, you're on."

"What?" Y/N shot a confused look Tony's way.

"Y/N, I need your help," Coulson's voice filled the room.

"Phil? What's wrong?"

"SHIELD has been taken over."

"Again? How the hell-"

"I can explain but they're tracking me and Skye's missing. I'm on the run and I need you to meet me."

"I can't just meet you someplace. I promised-"

"I'm fine with it," Tony cut her off. "Coulson already asked me. And I told him you'd do it."

"What? But you-"

"Skye is in trouble and I know how much you care about your team."

"But what about the monitor you gave her? Can't you track her that way?"

"It stopped working. So I'm letting you go searching for her. The condition is that I get to monitor you 24/7."

"Of course." Y/N kissed Tony, lovingly. "Thank you."

"Save your friends and come home to me."

"I will... I love you." She kissed one more time, briefly. "Phil?"
