Over the next four and a half years, Lily would learn to talk and walk at Professor Xavier's school. She was exceptionally bright for a four year old. This often caused trouble due to the fact that she could climb into high places and giggle as she watched her mischief unfold.

When she turned five, they took her to the park not real far from the school. She made her father push her on the swings, and catch her when she went down the slides. She laughed happily as she held Logan and Rogue's hands as they swung her.

While everyone was eating, she caught sight of something peculiar. It was shiny. She cautiously walked over and found a gold mask. She picked it up and examined it.
Suddenly, a man in a red and gold outfit appeared. He landed on the ground about five feet away. It was more of a crash landing. A huge green guy smashed into the field a little ways away, with a red haired woman in a black suit in his arms. She seemed hurt. A muscular man with shiny blond hair was swinging his hammer as he landed, his arm around a man with a bow slung on his shoulder. He was unconscious.

"Hey, little girl." The first man said. "Can I have that back?" He pointed at the mask in her hands. She gave it to him and he attached it to his armor.

"Thanks." He looked behind her and grimaced. "Oh, shit."

"Lily!"

The little girl turned and saw her father racing towards her. He picked her up and held her as he glared at the man in the armor.

"Who is that, Daddy?" She asked.

"'Daddy'?" The man questioned. "You had a kid."

"Shut up, Stark." He growled.

"Daddy, you said you would be nice today." She frowned.

The man sighed. "Alright. Lily, this is Tony Stark, also known as Iron Man."

"I've seen you on TV. You beat up all those weird monsters." She smiled.

Tony smirked.

"Stark." The woman called out. She was walking oddly, and her hand was on her stomach. "Who is this?"

"Do you remember a while back I brought up a group of people called the X-Men?" He turned to her. "Well, this is them. Meet Logan, Lily, Rogue, Gene, Scott and Professor Charles Xavier."

"Who are you?" Lily asked, curiosity getting the better of her.

"Natasha. The green guy over there is Bruce. Muscle man is Thor, and the other one is Hawkeye."

"Do you know where Cap and Bucky are?" Tony asked.

"I was told Bucky was still at headquarters. He's only supposed to be used when its an emergency. Cap is-"

"Right here." A voice said. A man limped up, his leg all bloody. "I've called HQ. Bucky should be here soon."

"You're Captain America!" Lily exclaimed. "You were frozen and then they brought you back to life!"

The man chuckled. "That's right."

"Hey, Wolfy." Tony called out to Logan.
"Don't call me that."

"Right. Temper. Got it. Anyways, do you think you could help us out? We're sorta low on support."

"Why the hell should we help you?"

"Well, for starters, the only reason you still even have that school is because of Stark Industries. We've seen what you have been doing. And if it weren't for us, you would all be locked up, so.." He shrugged.

"Oh, fuck you, Stark." Logan spat.

"Swear." Lily said softly.

"So, is that a yes?" He asked. "We're running low on time, so I need an answer, like, now."
