"Don't you think the kids are a little....weird?" Steve asked after making sure that the boys had disappeared into the lab with Banner.

"I can't begin to imagine what kind of a guy lets teenagers fight crime" Nat said, her expression a mix of anger and concern.

"Well...Peter is a teen" Tony said ,only to be fixed with a Nat-glare.

"Did any of you notice how much Jason paled when Damian mentioned....'his coffin'?" Steve asked ignoring the silent battle between Tony and Nat.

"I did" Thor looked unusually serious. He kept his gaze down and fiddled with his hammer. Now, that was so not-Thor-like.

"Anything you wanna tell us, Goldilocks?" Tony asked him.

Thor heaved a sigh and stood up.

" The reason why Loki is a threat, is me. He is like this because I was not there when he needed me. Because I couldn't keep him from going rogue. I'm afraid these children's relationship is no better than what Loki and I had. I don't want them to end up like us. I don't want them to lose each other like I did Loki. I lost my brother and there is no going back. But for these little midgardians, there is still time"

Everyone looked at Thor with a lot of questions racing through their minds.

Thor, The son of Odin, The mighty ruler of Asgard, taking the blame? It was a little overwhelming to hear that coming from someone who literally always addresses himself as The Mighty Thor.

"What do you suggest, Thor?" Nat asked.

Thor looked as if he was in thought and then shook his head. He didn't really know what midgardians do for having some quality time.

"I think what the kids need is a vacation. They could go on a road trip. Or anywhere they wanna go,and spend a little time together as brothers. That'd help, right?" Everyone nodded at what Steve suggested.

"So... Are we getting somewhere?" Peter as Tim as he mixed some chemicals in a test tube.

A silent shake of head followed an exhausted sigh.

Tim placed the test tube on a stand and walked to his brothers.

"Only if we had the blueprints of that machine"

">tt< Drake, Father must have found a way already. He is the Batman"

Banner was tired. He has been listening to these "He is the Batman" thing for the past ten minutes.

"Why don't we just go have some fun and wait for B to come pick us up?" Jason asked. He was getting so bored. It was the longest time he has spend without shooting something since ages. And so, he wasn't feeling good.

"I'm going to the zoo" Damian said as he walked out of the lab.

"Wait, does he know where the zoo is?" Peter asked with his eyebrows knotted together.

"He'll figure it out" Jason then drew quotation marks in the air with his fingers "He is the Son of Batman"

I really want to meet this Bat guy. He seems really cool. Peter thought.

"C'mon Jay. We gotta go after him or he is gonna end up bringing leopards and bats to this.... Tower"

"Ooh I forgot" Jason jumped up and followed Dick out of the door.

"Wait, hey, I'm not gonna stay back while ya'll go exploring the country," Tim yelled from behind them.

"You're free to tag along, replacement . Just don't pass out in the middle of the road"

Tim mumbled something that couldn't be heard by anyone else but himself. Then he followed his brothers, leaving Peter and Banner to wonder what the actual heck the boys were talking about.

The Avengers watched in confusion as Damian stomped out into the elevator. Not long after that, Dick walked in with Jason beside him whistling some random melody. Tim came running after. The pale boy cared enough to give an explanation.

"We're going out. Bye!" He said and joined his brothers in the elevator.

Everyone looked at Thor, wondering if it was his doing.

Oh right, Thor is the God of Thunder and Lightening, not fate. Maybe the brothers' relationship isn't as bad as they thought.
