When we landed, they took Clint into surgery right away. Natasha, Thor, and Bruce joined him as they began his procedure leaving Steve, Tony, and I on the ship when Maria joins us.

"Good news. NATO now has Strucker. He wont be a worry anymore." She says with a smile.

"And the man and woman?" Tony asks.

Maria clicks her tablet a few times and hands it to Steve. I join Tony by his side to look at the screen as we follow her from the ship. "Wanda and Pietro Maximoff. Twins." She swipes the screen to a video of the two shouting in a riot. "Orphaned at ten when a shell collapsed their apartment building. Sokovia's had a rough history. It's nowhere special but it's on the way to everywhere special." 

"Their abilities?" Steve asks as we walk though the hall towards the main area of the tower.

"He's got increased metabolism and improved homeostasis. Her thing is neuroleptic interfacing, telekinesis and mental manipulation."

I turn to Tony with wide eyes knowing the girl was behind our visions. She put those visions in our heads didn't she? I say to Tony though his head.

I think so...

Steve looks at us for an explanation. "He's fast and she's weird Cap, keep up." Tony says smacking him on the chest lightly.

The group of us step into the elevator. I snatch the tablet from Steve and begin scrolling though the files. "The file says they volunteered for Strucker's experiments. Why?" I ask Maria.

"I don't know. Its nuts." Maria nods.

"Right." Steve smiles. "What kind of monster would let a German scientist experiment on them to protect their country?"

"Apparently crazy people." Tony comments as I toss the tablet back to Maria as door to the elevator closes laving her in the hangar area.

I spent the rest of the day with Nat and Clint getting food and preparing ourselves mentally for Tony's party. Thor, Steve and Sam have been working with Sam's new suit, while Tony and Bruce have been in the lab all day.

Clint made a full recovery after his procedure which is a relief. Tony flew in a doctor that was able to regenerate his cells and make it as if the wound never happened. He feels a bit weak but other than that he's his same annoying self.

"Nat?" I ask as Clint heads to the bathroom leaving us two alone. "How come the others don't know about the devil from below? You exposed all of SHIELD and Hydra's information."

She sets down her drink. "I had enough time to bury one bit of evidence. And I made my choice."

I look at her confused. "Why my secrets. Why didn't you bury yours?"

She sighs. "The world knows a lot of my past. My secrets are simply conformation of their assumptions. Yours however, is something that will not only create a huge target on you back, but bring a hell of a lot of enemies not only for you."

"But I still don't get it. Why are you helping me with this secret?"

She smirks. "I don't have friends. I see it as a weakness. You however, are a weakness of mine just as Clint is."

"What am I?" Clint says seating himself back next to us.

"A pain in our asses." I say with a laugh causing Nat to almost choke on her drink.
