Alessia sat on the table close by Bruce, who had come to terms with Hulk and formed a connection, and Scott as they prepared to time travel using Scott's van. "You're sure these modifications are safe?" Scott asked Bruce as he messed with the dials in front of him. "I reran my calculations three times-" Bruce began only for Scott to interrupt him, "Because the guy who invented this thing is pretty much a genius-" Bruce looked up at Scott with an incredulous look.
"I have seven PhD's, an MD, the Hans Bethe Award for Physics, and I'm personal friends with Bill Nye the Science Guy. We're good," Bruce explained defensively. Alessia bit into her Twizzler with a smirk as she looked between the two Avengers. "Yeah. And you look like that on purpose," Scott snarked back making Alessia laugh. "He's got a point, Banner. Just saying," Alessia said before raising her arms in defence when Bruce sent her a look.
Steve and Natasha walk into the room with Rebecca following behind Steve, she raced over to Alessia with a wide smile. Alessia picked her up and sat her in her lap, handing her a Twizzler before smiling over at Steve. "Breakers are set, emergency generator's on stand-by," Steve informed them before stepping up next to Alessia and Rebecca. "Good. If we blow the grid, I don't want to lose Tiny back in the '50s," Bruce said.
Scott turned from pulling faces at Rebecca to Bruce with wide eyes, "Excuse me?" Alessia shook her head as Steve sent Bruce a look. "He was kidding," Nat quickly covered, though her side-glance to Alessia said otherwise. "I was kidding," Bruce assured in hopes to calm any of Scott's nerves. "You were kidding, right?" Nat asked Bruce who turned to her. "Honestly, I have no idea," He told Nat before looking back to Scott who nodded with a blank expression.
"We're attempting time travel. Either it's all a joke, or none of it is," He finished saying to Nat before turning back to Scott. "We're good, helmet on!" Bruce ordered before focusing on the control panel in front of him. "Okay. I'm going to send you back one week, give you an hour to look around, then bring you back in ten seconds. Make sense?" Bruce explained to Scott. Alessia zoned out the rest of the conversation as she began braiding her daughter's hair, she could only think of Bucky and how he may react to being a father.
Scott shrinks to nothing into the van before returning though he seems to have aged backwards into a twelve-year-old. Alessia furrowed her brows as Bruce pressed a few buttons sending him back into the Quantum Realm before he returned except this time, he's a ninety-three-year-old version of himself. "Oh, boy..." Alessia whispered as she held her daughter close. Scott shrinks back to nothing again, Bruce types frantically with a pencil, fingers too big for the small keys.
After some messing around, Scott returned as himself though Alessia made playful comments about baby Scott being adorable. Alessia took Rebecca outside, Aiden stood by his car with a smile as his niece ran up to him. "Thanks for coming to pick her up," Alessia hugged her brother before helping her daughter into his car. "Of course, just be careful with all of this. Okay?" Aiden asked, Alessia nodded and kissed her daughters head before closing the door.
She waved at the two before walking over to Steve who was leaning against the wall. "She's amazing," Steve spoke with a smile. Alessia wrapped her arms around herself, "She was asking about Bucky last night, she wanted to know more about him. I had to hold back the urge to cry." Steve pulled Alessia into a tight hug. He was the first person to find out about Rebecca, she was terrified about raising a child alone but he reassured her that she wouldn't be alone and she hasn't been.
The two were distracted when they spotted an Audi racing up the driveway, it slowly pulled up in front of the two super soldiers. The window rolled down to reveal Tony Stark with a sheepish look on his face. "Why the long faces? Wild guess, he turned into a baby?" Tony asked with his classic smirk, Alessia rolled her eyes with a smile on her face. "Among other things," Steve replied as Tony got out of the car.
"EPR Paradox. Instead of pushing Lang through time, you were pushing time through Lang. It's dangerous. I probably should've cautioned you against it," Tony explained as he stood in front of the two. "You did," Steve pointed out ignoring the slight glare from Alessia for feeding into Tony's ego boost. "Thank God, I'm here. Regardless, I fixed it," Tony said as he held up a star-shaped capacitor. "That is a fully-functioning, time-space GPS. I just want peace. Resentment is corrosive. I hate it," Tony finished off.
"Me too," Steve responded, Alessia smiled as the tension between the two men eased. "We've got a shot at the Stones. I just need you to know my priorities. Bring back everyone we lost, hopefully. Keep what I found, definitely. And, let's not die trying," Tony said to the two before walking around to his boot. "Sounds like a deal," Steve spoke as the two shook hands. "Awh, my brothers are okay again," Alessia teased with a smirk.
"But wait, there's more. Act now, and it comes with a bonus offer," Tony said as his boot opened, laying there was Steve's shield looking brand new. "Tony, I don't know..." Steve started. "What's to know? He made it for you. Plus, I gotta get it out of the garage before Morgan takes it sledding," Tony said as he held it out to Steve. Steve grabs it from Tony and slides it onto his arm. "Thank you, Tony," Steve said as he looked up at him.
"Just don't flaunt it. I didn't bring enough for the whole team. We are getting the whole team, right?" Tony asked looking at the two super soldiers who glance at one another. "We're trying," Steve said only for Alessia to smirk. "Oh trust me, we're getting the whole team together," Alessia said before walking ahead of the two inside where Nat was contacting Rocket and Nebula. Alessia turned to Tony, "I'm guessing I can't join the time heist because of my powers?"
Tony nodded at Alessia before motioning for her to follow him. "This is for Rebecca," Tony said as he held out a bracelet, each charm was a symbol for each Avenger. Alessia looked up at Tony with a smile as she held it in her hands, "She'll love this. Especially that it's from Uncle Tony." Tony shrugged, "It's what an uncle is supposed to do." Alessia hugged Tony, the two silent with no clue what may happen next.

Alessia stood by the window, this moment would change everything but she couldn't be a part of it. "It sucks that our most powerful Avenger has to stay behind," Tony said as he stepped up next to Alessia. "Well, it makes sense that I would destabilize the quantum travel due to my connection to the realm, so I... Just be careful out there Tony," Alessia said as she turned to look at Tony.
He nodded before following the others into the main room, Alessia looked up at them from where she was standing. "I'll see you all in a few seconds, minutes at most," Alessia said to her family, they nodded at her before disappearing right before her eyes. She sat down on the table and looked down, a thud sounded and she looked up to see them standing there talking about the time heist. "Where's Nat?" Bruce asked Clint who had watery eyes.
Alessia stood up and walked towards him, her heart was racing. "Clint..." He looked down before falling into Alessia's arms. Everyone went quiet in the room as Rocket remembered what Nebula had said. "Thanos had Gamora with him at Vormir, but he returned without her but had the Soul Stone," Rocket explained with a sad tone. Alessia let out a breath to hold back the tears as she closed her eyes in memory of her good friend, Natasha Romanoff.
