Y/N shot up awake on the couch, he realized he was having a nightmare, though what it was he couldn't remember. He looked down at his chest and saw his shirt was wet with cold sweat.
"agh, fuck." Y/N muttered as he stood up off the couch and headed to his and Kates room, when he walked in he could see that the bed was empty and Kate's coat was gone, on the bed was a note.
Y/N,
I've left for work early today, while I'm out at least try to fix things up with Bruce, I'm not asking you to love him like a father but at least offer him some forgiveness, he also lost Natasha on Vormir.
Love You, Kate xx :)
Y/N headed to the shower and got ready for the day he changed into his old Vigilante outfit which was now his casual wear, he could now be seen in it seeing as his new outfit looked nothing like it, he did admit to himself, he misses the old suit, the way it felt like he was able to blend in with anyone and really give the criminals paranoia, but he also adored his new Taskmaster version of the suit, he felt it was time the criminals had a real symbol to dread at night, and a metaphorical blade in the crowd couldn't do that.
He thought back to Kate's note while he walked through the streets, he decided he'd spend the day shortening his checklist by ticking off tasks that needed to be done.
"Give him a chance." Nat's voice called out as Y/N sighed.
"...Fine, one chance." Y/N said under his breath as he headed to where Bruce was working nowadays, he stepped into the Stark Industries building and headed to the elevator until he was stopped by security guards.
"Sorry sir, no members of the public are allowed in here." The guard said as Happy ran over and dragged the guard away reprimanding him.
All Y/N heard of the conversation was Happy saying...
"You idiot, you were told this on day one who is and isn't allowed, and that boy over there is allowed, one he's the nephew to Ms Stark, two he's the son of Black Widow and probably could kill you with a cuff-link if he wanted to, and three he's an Avenger." Happy whisper shouted as Y/N approached and the guard walked past him muttering an apology. "Sorry about that guy Y/N, how ya doing?"
"I'm fine Hap, I'm here to talk to Bruce. Might stop by and check on Aunt Pepper first though, is she free?" Y/N said as Happy smirked.
"For her favorite nephew? always." Happy said as he guided Y/N to the elevator. "So, heard you met a girl over Christmas, still going strong?"
"Well I managed to piss her off by arguing with Bruce, but other than that they're going great." Y/N said as he pressed the button for Peppers office floor, the elevator rose up and the doors opened, Pepper's secretary tried to ask them to wait but they were immediately buzzed in by Pepper.
"It's alright, they're fine to come in." Peppers voice came over the intercom as Y/N smirked before walking through the doors.
"Hey Aunt Pepper, how're things going." Y/N said as Pepper embraced her Nephew.
"Great, how's that team you're putting together going?" Pepper asked as Y/N smiled.
"Well the Mansion has been fixed up, it's nice seeing it back to full health, like it was when I was there. We already have a few people we're looking at recruiting. What's best is Ross doesn't know about it so we can actually do our job. How's Morgan?" Y/N said as he heard Morgan shout from the elevator he and Happy had come from.
"Mommy I'm here." Morgan said as she walked into the room and put her school bag on the floor. "Y/N!"
"Hey, how's little Morgana?" Y/N said as she laughed.
"Worst cousin ever." Morgan responded as Y/N knelt down so he was eye level with Morgan and hugged her.
"Ah come on, you know you think I'm the best." Y/N said as Morgan backed away and stuck her tongue out at Y/N. "Fair enough. How's school going kiddo."
"She got a detention the other week for arguing with a teacher, she pretty much takes after what you were like when you joined Midtown High."
"I doubt that, little Morgana here? I'm sure she didn't get into a fight on her first day." Y/N said as began doing her plead innocence face.
"No, you're right on that account...it was her second." Pepper said as Y/N chuckled. "She was standing up to a bully and when I asked her why she felt the need to do that she said because it's what you would do."
"Well she's not wrong, I did have a fight on my first day. Standing up for my friend Peter Parker..." Y/N said before realizing no one would remember him. "He was probably my best friend, Morgan while I don't condone violence, I'm proud of you for standing up to bullies."
Y/N smiled at Morgan before saying goodbye to her, Happy and Pepper. Y/N headed to the elevator and took it to the floor where Bruce was working on. When the elevator doors opened Y/N saw Bruce working in the labs, Banner noticed Y/N and looked at him with a neutral look on his face.
"Y/N if you've come here to argue-" Bruce began.
"I'm sorry, about what I said yesterday." Y/N interrupted, his words knocking Bruce onto the back foot.
"Y/N?"
"I'm sorry about...well, everything." Y/N said as Bruce stepped closer to him.
"...Me too kid, everything."
"Bruce, I forgive you." Y/N said as Bruce smiled and pulled Y/N in for a hug, letting a lone tear fall down his cheek.
"Thanks kid." Bruce said warmly.
Y/N got a text, when he checked his phone Bruce was able to read the message upside down.
Yuri:
Private Investigator attacked and Evidence stolen, in Hell's Kitchen, come quick.
Y/N:
On my way, Hawkeye is on another case, I'll bring Yelena.
Yuri:
The Attack isn't the only thing, assassination happened with the same MO as the attack in Hell's Kitchen, we think they're connected.
Y/N:
Who's the Private Investigator?
Yuri:
...Jessica Jones
