You are the first to wake up, Kate was still sound asleep in your arms. You decided to just lay there until she woke up, since you knew moving would most likely wake her up.

After a while Kate stirs awake.

"Good morning" you ssy

"Good morning, have you been awake long?" She asks

"No, not long. I just didn't want to wake you." You say

"Aww you totally could have. I'm sorry. She says

"You're perfectly fine" you say

You and Kate eventually decide to get up and get dressed for day. For some reason you were still really bruised and sore. You noticed there was a weird thing in the middle of the halo. It was something that wasn't there before.

"Hey Kate?" You yell from the bathroom.

"Yeah what's up?" She asks

"Could you go get Nat and Wanda please?" You ask

"Sure!" She says

You could hear her footsteps leave and a few moments later theres a knock on the door.

"Y/n? Its just us" says Nat

You let them in and they immediately notice your back.

"What the hell is that?" Asks Wanda

"I don't know, I never noticed It before." You say

"It looks like Visions mind stone, but purple. I think its the Power stone. How would Hydra have gotten It? Asks Wanda

"Well, at least we know where two of them are." Says Nat

"Two of what are?" You ask

"The infinity stones. We will explain more after breakfast." Says Nat

You not your head and change shirts. Nat and Wanda are already in the kitchen.

"SURPRISE!" Everyone yells

You look around to see balloons and different birthday decorations.

"Awww you guys." You say

You hug everyone and they all wish you a happy birthday.

"We made your favorite breakfast." Says Wanda

"Thank you everyone." You say

"I hate to ruin the party but Thanos was just spotted. He has every stone but the time stone, power stone and mind stone. Thankfully we know where the time and mind stone are." Says Tony

"We know where the Power Stone is too." Says Nat

"Where?" Asks Tony

"My back" you say

Everyone looks in your direction, which causes you to shift uncomfortably.

"Well, he needs all 6 to wipe half the universe. All we need to do is figure out a way to destroy the stones before Thanos comes for the other stones." Says Tony

"We should talk with the king of Wakanda. His little sister might be the one who can take the stones out. I don't know if she will be able to destroy them though." Says Bruce

"Wanda might have the power to destroy them, since her powers came from one of the stones."  Says Vision

"Bruce and I will head to NYC to meet up with Dr.Strange. He is the keeper from the time stone. Y/n and Vision need to lie low.  There's no way he's doing this alone and guessing they wont stop if they find those stones." Says Stark

"I need some air." You say as you walk past everyone and head out to the balcony. You set your hands on the rails and look out in the sky and you let out a big sigh.

You hear the door open and than close but domt bother turning around.

"Hey talk to me, whats going on?" says Kate as she sets her hand on top of yours.

"I feel like I've been constantly hiding and running for the last 3 years. Hydras one thing but this Thanos guy? He sounds like he will kill whoever gets in his way." You say

"It sounds like your family will handle him. Just like they have with the rest of their enemies." Says Kate

"But at what cost?" You ask

"Ive only been here a short time, but I can tell they all care for you a lot. Just because you have a stone in your back, I don't think that will change anytime soon." She says

"I don't want them to put themselves in danger for me." You say

"They aren't just doing this for you, they are doing It for the entire universe. I don't think it matters even if you and vision didn't have the stones." Says Kate

"Fair point" you say

"We will get this figured out. How about we head inside and go eat some breakfast. I'm sure they will figure out a game plan." Says Kate

You two head back inside and make a plate of food before sitting down and eating and talking with everyone. You push your food around with your fork and zone out.

Kate's pov

We are all eating and talking, everyone seems really nice so far. I look over and see y/n staring down at her food clearly zoned out.

I put my hand in hers and give a light but gentle squeeze. This seems to get her to snap at whatever thoughts she was having. I could feel her squeeze my hand back before she started to eat slowly.

We finish eating and clean up. Y/n gave us a tour of the compound before heading back to your room.

Your pov

You and kate we're watching a movie in your room.

"Random question for you." You say

"What's up?" Kate asks

"How did you end up at Hydra?" You ask

" Before my dad died, he got in some pretty bad debt with this mafia. When he died my mom took over the payments, she fell behind on them and so they kidnapped me. They were going to use me to get my mom to pay the rest of the money but she couldn't come up with It. They saw I was skilled with a bow and I guess hydra took interest." She says

"Kate I'm so sorry." You say

"Its okay, I'm kinda glad It happened." She says

"Why?" You ask

"I wouldn't have met you." She says

You smile and she chuckles. You guys spend the rest of the day talking and watching movies.
