Peggy P.O.V.

It was in the around 10:30 ish in the morning and I was climbing trees outside with Pym.
"Hey guys!" Azari said as he walked over.
"Hey Azari, what you up to!?" I said hanging upside down off a branch of one of the trees.
"Nothing much. What you doing?" He questioned.
"We're climbing tree, want to join us?" Pym asked enthusiastically.
"It'll be fun!!" I said as I hopped down from the branch.
Azari was taller than both of us, he was 11 and we are 9, but eh.
"Sure why not!!" He agreed
"Last one up the tree is the loser!!!!" Pym screamed as he ran towards a tree.
"No powers Pym!!" I yelled as I ran towards a different tree.
"You know I'm the king at climbing tree!" Azari said as he also went to a tree.
We all started to climb and I started to get really high up.
"Don't climb so high Peggy!" Azari yelled from bellow.
"eh, it fine, it's not like I'm gunna fall" I said back.
"Yeah Peggy, you should come back down" Pym asked they were starting to sound worried.
"Does this mean I win!" I asked with joy.
"If it'll make you come down before James kills us, yes!" Azari shouted up to me in a slightly hushed tone.
"Eh, relax! James won't know!" I relaxedly replied.
"Peggy!!" The shouted back in sink.
"Fine!" I extended the 'I' with a sigh. "I'm coming down" I yelled as I slowly began to back down the tree. "Hey why don't we play tag!"
"Fine, you it Peggy!!" Azari said as he ran off.
"Wait for me!" Pym said as he flew off
"Hey no powers!!" I shouted back but they were already out of earshot. "Ugh!"
"Ahhhhhhh!!" I screamed as my foot slipped on my way down, I was a far few feet up to break a bone. "JAMES!!!"
But what i didn't expect happened my necklace glowed and my fall slowed down and I was floating, I looked down and gasped I had traveled half way down, my fall had been cut down to a half, I lost my concentration and I landed with thud, my ankle was sore and my wrist apart from that and a few scrapes and bruises from the branches in my way down I'm fine to my surprise. Ugh where's James when you need him.

James P.O.V

I was just wondering around, when I heard a scream. A scream that sounded an awful lot like Peggy.
"JAMES!!!" She shouted from a distance.
"Peggy!!" I said as I ran towards it. Pym and Azari passed not long ago laughing and looking back, maybe they had something to do with it. Huh?! When they heard her scream they both turned around and looked at each other and in sink said "oh no" under their breath only just audible. We ran through the forest Azari leading the way from where they were last at, Torunn ran up and helped me look.

Peggy POV

I tried it stand back up but I no avail but my foot was sore, but I could tell it was not broken, luckily.
"Peggy!?, Peggy, where are you!!" I heard James shout through the trees.
"James over here" I yelled in frustration worry and relief.
"Peggy!! Are you ok?" He asked kneeling beside me.
"Define ok!?" I asked sarcastically as he put his hand on my ankle I hisses in pain. Hey I may be nine but I live with two fifteen year olds.
"What happened!?" He demanded with worry in his voice.
"I fell from the tree on my way down, not long after Pym and Azari ran off cus we started a game of tag" I explained.
"How high did you climb!?"
"Not that high" I said innocently. He just gave me a look that said; 'really, do you take me for a fool' "I'm serious!, only up to that branch" I said pointing up to where I fell in level with from where I suddenly started floating. I decided to keep it a secret as there are no cameras in this area and I had no clue what it was, so...
"Fine" he sighed "come on" he said helping me up, he put my left arm over his shoulder and my right arm hung down by my side cus my wrist hurt, and I had to hop with the help of James. "Torunn can you go and find tony and tell him Peggy's hurt"
"Aye" she replied flying off.

"What did you do" Tony said with his arms crossed

"Come on let's get you inside" Tony said motioning towards the 'medic room'.
