Peter paced around the room, heart racing as he waited for Tony and Steve to arrive. He kept his eyes on Morgan, who stood eerily still, her expression cold and blank. MJ and Harley stayed by his side, both shaken but resolute.
Just then, the front doors burst open, and Tony and Steve rushed in. Tony’s eyes widened when he saw Morgan, and Steve’s face went pale. They had never seen their little girl like this—empty, controlled.
“Peter, what’s going on?” Tony asked, trying to keep his voice calm, though worry was etched across his face.
“It’s Hydra, Dad,” Peter replied, his voice tight with anxiety. “They’re controlling her somehow. Her eyes—they changed color. For a moment, she broke free, but they still have her.”
Steve stepped forward, his expression steely with resolve. “Morgan, sweetheart, it’s us. Whatever they’re doing to you, we’re here to help.”
Morgan’s head tilted slightly, her gaze locking onto Steve. “You really think you can stop this, Captain?” she said in a chilling voice that wasn’t her own. “Hydra is stronger than you think.”
Tony clenched his fists. “This ends now. F.R.I.D.A.Y., scan for any traceable signals in the area—anything out of the ordinary.”
“Scanning, Boss,” F.R.I.D.A.Y. responded, beginning the sweep.
As they waited, Steve reached into his pocket and pulled out a small, round device—a prototype shield Tony had designed. He tossed it to Peter. “If things get rough, use this to protect her. We’re not letting Hydra keep our little girl.”
Peter nodded, taking the shield with determination. “We’re getting her back. I promise.”
Suddenly, Morgan’s body jerked, and her eyes flickered, returning briefly to their usual warmth. She looked at Tony and Steve, her voice small and terrified. “Dad… Pops… please… help me.”
Steve took a step toward her, but her eyes shifted back to the eerie, Hydra-induced stare. With an inhuman strength, she lunged toward Peter, and he barely managed to block her with the shield.
F.R.I.D.A.Y.’s voice broke through the chaos. “Mr. Stark, there is a faint, encrypted signal coming from Morgan’s bracelet. It appears to be a link to an external control source.”
Tony’s eyes narrowed as he turned to Peter and Steve. “We have to remove that bracelet without hurting her. It’s the only way to sever the link.”
Steve nodded, positioning himself to block Morgan if she tried to attack again. “Peter, can you use your webs to carefully wrap her arm?”
Peter swallowed, his hands steadying as he shot webs to gently secure Morgan’s arm, immobilizing it without hurting her. “Got it. Now what?”
Tony approached her, carefully activating a small laser tool he’d crafted for precision work. With a steady hand, he began to slice through the bracelet, taking care not to touch Morgan’s skin.
As the bracelet loosened, Morgan’s body stiffened. Her eyes flickered back to their usual color, and her voice, small and frightened, broke through the coldness. “Dad… Pops… I’m so scared.”
“It’s okay, sweetheart,” Steve said, his voice soft and reassuring. “We’re right here. Just hold on.”
With one final cut, Tony detached the bracelet from Morgan’s wrist. The moment it clattered to the floor, she collapsed into Steve’s arms, trembling.
Tony knelt beside her, his voice filled with relief. “Morgan, you’re safe now. Hydra can’t control you anymore.”
Morgan looked up, tears streaming down her face as she clung to her fathers. “I was so scared. I couldn’t stop them…”
Steve wrapped his arms around her tightly, his voice breaking. “You’re home now, Morgan. We’ll make sure Hydra never gets close to you again.”
Peter, MJ, and Harley shared a look of relief, each of them feeling a deep sense of triumph and gratitude. They had faced something dark, but together, they had pulled Morgan back to safety.
As they all gathered around Morgan, it became clear that this family—bound by love and resilience—was unbreakable. And though Hydra’s threat remained, they would face it together, prepared to protect each other at any cost.
As Morgan clung to Steve and Tony, the tension in the room finally started to ease. Tony exchanged a look with Peter, a mixture of gratitude and pride.
“Peter,” Tony began, his voice filled with warmth, “you handled all this like a true Stark today. Thank you.”
Peter looked down, feeling a bit overwhelmed. “I just… I had to. Morgan’s my sister. I’d do anything to keep her safe.”
Tony put a hand on his shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze. “And that’s exactly why we’re proud of you.”
Steve’s voice broke the moment. “But we can’t ignore this. Hydra’s getting bolder, going after the people we care about.”
Tony nodded, his face darkening. “Agreed. We need to figure out how they managed to get a device on Morgan in the first place.”
Peter’s brow furrowed. “It had to be at school, right? That’s the only place she’s been without one of us around.”
Steve sighed. “Which means Hydra is operating too close for comfort. We’ll need to keep a tighter watch on everything from here on out.”
Morgan, still trembling a little, looked up at her dads. “I don’t want to go back to school if they can find me there. What if they try something like this again?”
Tony pulled her close, his voice firm but gentle. “We’ll make sure you’re safe, Morgan. You’re not going back until we have every possible security measure in place.”
Steve gave a reassuring smile. “We’re a team. No one’s going anywhere alone.”
Just then, F.R.I.D.A.Y. chimed in. “Mr. Stark, I’ve located the origin of the signal used to control Miss Morgan. It’s in a nearby abandoned facility with connections to former Hydra operations.”
Tony’s eyes narrowed. “Perfect. It’s time we pay Hydra a visit.”
Peter stepped forward. “I’m coming too.”
Steve shook his head. “Peter, it’s too dangerous. You’ve already been through enough today.”
Peter’s face remained determined. “If Hydra is out there, going after my sister, my family, then I need to be there. I can help.”
Tony and Steve exchanged a look, both understanding Peter’s resolve. Finally, Tony nodded. “Alright, but you stay close to us. The second things get out of hand, you’re out. Got it?”
Peter nodded, feeling a surge of determination. “Got it.”
As they suited up, Tony and Steve mentally prepared themselves for the confrontation ahead. They knew they were walking into a dangerous situation, but with their family threatened, there was no other choice.
Before they left, MJ and Harley gave Peter one last hug. MJ’s voice was shaky, but strong. “Be careful, okay? And bring them all back safe.”
Peter nodded, giving her a reassuring smile. “I will. Promise.”
With one last look at Morgan, who stayed close to Harley and MJ, Tony, Steve, and Peter set out to end Hydra’s threat—once and for all.
