Clint's kitchen. Full of the world's most powerful hero's. All beaten up and ego's crushed like a grape. But, we all got showers and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches so there's a plus.

"He still going after launch codes?"

My dad took a sip of a water and tossed it to Peter to gave it to me. I had gotten absolutely no sleep last night. All I did was turn around several times and have panic attacks. I didn't know if I was ready for this, I didn't know if I could face Wanda again. I knew I had to though, I literally signed up for this, wrote it in my notes. The things I'll learn here will stick me forever. I've already learned so much and I've only been here for three days.

"Yes, he is, but he's not making any headway."

I wasn't exactly paying attention, I was tired, anxious, and Peter's hand on my back was not helping my focus either. He probably meant to comfort me but I wasn't sure if it was overstimulating me or if it was just distracting because Peter Parker's hand was on my back.

"Are you okay?" I jolted at the whisper in my ear. I almost dropped the water bottle in my hand and awkwardly set it down when Fury raised an eyebrow at me. I didn't really have to pay attention, did I? I already knew what I had to do, Fury said to look for the twins and get them on our side. That was my job. That was it. I didn't have to- "Rev?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm okay. Just... distracted." I smiled at him and then quickly looked away. Out of the corner of my eye I could see him tilting his head like a sarcastically confused puppy.

"Distracted..." he mumbled to himself before slowly bringing his hand to my shoulder, this was less distracting. He most likely knew what I was talking about but I didn't exactly get to think about it too much before we were out of the door and into the Quinjet.

  Okayyyy, Reven, facing Ultron again. You can do this, just calm down. Oh shiiiit, I scripted in Sokovia in the end I'd be the one to save the world. Oh no. Why did I do that? "Hey, you okay?" My dad snapped his fingers in my face and I waved his hand away.

  "Yeah. Yeah." I cleared my throat, smiled, and walked away. I was worried, I didn't know where Peter would be in this fight. I didn't know where he would be in every fight. Shit I might wanna save Natasha in a minute so that thing with Bruce doesn't happen*mentally gags* hehe.

  "Are you nervous?" Peter's voice cracked next to me. Sweat was trickling down his forehead as we passed our respective weapons and clutched our suits in our hands.

"Yes. But that comes with this, you know?" My legs were shaking. I had to find Wanda and Pietro. I had to tell Peter. I tell Peter everything. "Can I talk to you...in private please?"

He just nodded at me and walked to an unaccompanied corner with me. I looked around, Fury said nobody could know. It could jeopardize the mission giving a couple of the other Avengers would stray from what they were doing to save me. That couldn't happen. They had stuff to do and so did I, nothing to worry about. Except Peter, Peter would notice I was doing something else and therefore he needed to know, right?

"So, what's up?" I was cracking my knuckles, I flung my head back and forth to make sure nobody was listening. Nobody had looked at me in the last 7 minutes and 38 seconds. (Scripted photographic memory) I was good.

"So, Fury comes up to me, right?" He nods and I put my voice down to a whisper. "He gave me a job, like a real real one. Like every victim of Hydra..." Shitt- he didn't know about how I was in Hydra, did he? "You know what, I'll explain later, all you have to know is I'm saving Wanda and Pietro and you don't have to worry about me. Okay?" I gave him a thumbs up and went to change into my suit.
