Kinesis

"Alright," Peter said as he placed several books on his living room coffee table. "Books on ergokinesis, aerokinesis, terrakinesis, even one on straight up telekinesis."

"Peter, you are a lifesaver," Allie grinned as she and Bucky sat down on the couch and picked up the books to look at them.

"My inspiration came from that one scene in Carrie," Peter grinned.

"In what?" Allie asked.

"Carrie. You know, Carrie? It's a classic horror movie," Peter looked at them with a dropped jaw. "And it's old!"

"Peter, we're old," Allie rolled her eyes.

"Okay, well, I clearly still have to educate you on pop culture," Peter said dismissively as he looked back to the books.

"I just wish there was an easier way to find out if I actually have any more powers than just these," Allie sighed.

"Well, you did have that session with Steve and Tony way back when, didn't you?" Bucky asked as he flipped through the pages of a book on ergokinesis.

"Yeah, I did," Allie agreed as she picked up a book on aerokinesis.

"You did? Like in a lab?" Peter's eyes flicked up to Allie's.

"Yes," Allie nodded. "It was pretty much the day or so after I'd found myself at the compound."

"And they found a way to look at your powers?" Peter continued.

"Yes," she continued slowly.

"Then that's perfect! Let's do that," Peter grinned.

"Are you sure that you can?" Bucky asked. "I mean the Compound is long gone."

"Well, yes, it is," Peter agreed. "But you are forgetting that I still work with Stark Industries. All I have to do is find a time and facility to use."

"And in the meantime, read these books?" Allie grinned.

"Exactly," Peter grinned in return.

"Then let's get to it," she smiled, opening her book.

Allie never really saw herself back at an Avengers or Stark complex or compound after she and Bucky had last been at the Avengers Compound wreckage when Steve took the Infinity Stones back to their proper places in history.

Peter had gone through with setting up a day for Allie and Bucky to go with him to a smaller Stark Industries facility that he often used to work on his personal projects. Pepper had Morgan with her as she met the group at the front door and led them down the corridors in the direction of the labs.

Memories of the night she'd first arrived at Compound grounds when she reunited with Steve flooded over her. The moment she had become friends with Wanda that night after she'd read her mind. It may not have been the same corridors or building, but a part of Allie felt comfort in the familiarity of it.

"Alright, so I asked Dr. Banner to join us to help you Peter," Pepper stated. "But Morgan and I can head out so you can work on this."

"Oh, I'm not missing this for anything," Morgan grinned as she stood firmly in front of Allie and Bucky.

"Oh really?" Allie questioned, her lip curled slightly with a grin.

"I've been looking forward to this since I overheard Mom and Peter talking about this," she smirked. "I want to be here to record any big fails you have."

"Are you sure you didn't just birth a miniature Tony?" Allie looked at Pepper who gave her a slight smile and shake of her head.

"No posting it on YouTube," Peter glared at Morgan.
