Ami is on the counter in the kitchen waiting for Tony to give her something.
Steve Rogers comes by to start the training.
"Ami, come, let's go train while waiting."(Steve offers a hand).
Ami climbs on to his hand.
On the way to the gym Steve starts talking to Ami.
"So, do you trust us now?"(Steve)
"Yea,"(Ami)
"That's good"(Steve)

They arrive at the gym and Steve puts Ami on the floor.
"Now, let's work on your flip"(Steve)
Steve walks to the end of the room.
"Now run towards me and go into a flip"(Steve)
"Ok..."(Ami)
Ami runs with speed spreads her arms out to do a front handspring.
She almost lands on her feet but lands on her butt.
"You almost got it!"(Steve)
Steve approaches,
"But first I almost forgot, we should stretch."(Steve)
They do a bunch of stretches, like splits, back bends, and such.

"Hey, Ami"(Tony)
Ami got up from stretching and walks to Tony.
"Hi."(Ami)
"Well, I wanted to give you this."(Tony)
Tony puts whatever he had on the floor next to Ami.
"I got you this trampoline."(Tony)
Ami's eyes brightened looking at the trampoline that was ten times wider than her.
"You are so thoughtful, Tony"(Steve walks up to them)
"Oh, it's nothing. Especially for someone like her"(Tony)
Ami smiled up at him.
Ami tries to pull it over to where they were training.
"I got it for you. See you later Tony"(Steve)
"See you later, Ami! I have to go back to California now!"(Tony)
Ami looks at him with sad eyes.
"California?"(Ami)
"Yea, I'm sorry, I have a lot of work to do. I can't be there to wish you farewell. But look at this as my farewell gift."(Tony)
All Ami could do was give a subtle smile and wave her little hands as Tony got smaller and smaller.
'I guess he was like a father to me.'(Ami thought)
"Are you okay, Ami?"(Steve)
"Yea-"(Ami says very blandly)
"You want to have a lunch break with me?"(Steve)
"If you want to."(Ami)
"Well, I do actually. Let's eat some Japanese food."(Steve)
"Really?"(Ami has been missing Japanese food on earth since she got brought to Maho no Kuni)
"Yea, I want Udon noodles."(Steve)
"Me too!"(Ami)
'Wow, she's feeling better now'(Steve thought to himself)
Steve scoops Ami up and walks to the kitchen. When they get to the kitchen he puts her on the dining table and sits at the dining table with her.
"Let's order delivery"(Steve)
He orders two of everything: Udon noodles, tempura, salad, and tofu.
He puts his phone down and looks at Ami.
"So..."(Steve)
Ami looks at him with awkward eyes.
"Do you like it here?"(Steve)
"Umm, that's a loaded question for me"(Ami)
"Ok, ok, I get that."(Steve)
"You know Ami, you never start a conversation. Is that just you? Or are still shyer than you are with your close friends?"(Steve)
"I guess, I've alway been shy to start conversations."(Ami)
"But you're smart right? I feel like your words can give some people a lot of wisdom"(Steve)
"Oh, I'm not that wise. I just work hard and I'm only 16 after all"(Ami)
"Oh Ami, just because you're young doesn't mean that you can't give people wisdom."(Steve)
Ami thinks about what he just said.

"Your delivery is here."(Said a voice from the other side of the door).
Steve gets up and opens the door and recieves the food.
Steve unpacks the food, shrinks the ones that he will give to Ami, and brings all the food to the table.
"Here, eat up. After this we will go back to doing your flip."(Steve)
"Thank you."(Ami)
"So you lived in Japan before you got kidnapped?"(Steve)
"Yes,"(Ami)
"How are you guys good at english?"(Steve)
"My friend Mina, spent a lot of time in England. We all practiced our english with her."(Ami)
"I see, do you speak any other languages?"(Steve)
"I can speak German, Chinese, English, a little bit of Spanish and Japanese of course."(Ami)
"That's awesome!"(Steve)
The two people finish their meal.
"Ok, let's give it a rest for 30 minutes."(Steve)
"Yes,"(Ami)
"Now why don't you go walk around until I come to get you?"(Steve picks up Ami and puts her on the floor).

After 30 Minutes*
They get to the gym
"Ok let's do it now. By today you are going to do that flip."(Steve)
"Ok"(Ami)
Steve walks away from Ami until he is far enough, then faces her.
"Ok do it now."(Steve)
Time goes by as Ami keeps doing flip after flip, she is always landing on her butt, her belly, sometime almost landing on her neck.
She never gives up, but she is getting frustrated.
"How do I do this?!"(Ami)
"It's ok Ami. Just breathe"(Steve)
Ami stands mountain position and pictures the perfect flip in her head. She breathes for 3 minutes.
"Try again now."(Steve)
Ami runs and spreads her arms out and jumps and brings her feet up. Will she do it?
"Hey! you got it now!"(Steve)
Ami pants and cheers herself up.
"Ok let's do one more and get you home"(Steve)
"Ok"(Ami)
Ami does one more successful flip.

Then Steve picks her up and takes her to Peter's house.
