Steve POV

Poor kid, he's got so many scars that I felt like I was going to throw up but I stopped myself.

Scott's back, torso and arms were littered with too many scars that a kid his age shouldn't have. I watched as he turned away, probably not wanting the pity. I sighed and gently took his hands.

He looked straight at me (Guys dont forget Scott is blind!) and looked as if he were about to cry. "Do they hurt?"

He shook his head, "Most of them are old and have healed but some hurt a bit, especially the ones on my back that keep opening up." I looked at Bruce and saw he was a bit green.

I put my hand on Bruce's arm, telling him to calm down, and he seemed to calm down and relax but you could tell he was tense and on edge.

"Scott, who done this to you?" You could hear that he was quite angry from his voice.

Scott shook his head and backed up, panicking. I pulled him into a hug and started to trace circles on his back.

"I don't want him to get me!" Scott whispered in my ear, as he shook slightly because he was crying slightly. How could I tell when I'm not looking at him? I felt his tears on my shirt, again, but I didn't care.

"He won't get you, I promise! I will protect you!" I looked at him but he had closed his eyes again and continued to cry but a bit less than before.

"How can you promise so many things?" He asked and I was taken back, not expecting to be asked the question.

"Because I know I can keep them!" I stated sternly. I hugged him again, and I felt him lean towards my ear.

He whispered a name and I nodded, immediately understanding what he was talking about. I didn't move though, until a couple minutes later, staying in the hug as Scott slowly fell asleep.

I gently placed him on the bed, him laying on his front and his limbs spread out, and I walked up to Bruce who was looking at Scott with pity.

"Bruce, put up an arrest for Gabe Ugliano!" I growled and a frowned taking over my face.

With Bruce's nod, I left to beat the sh*t out of a punching bag in the training room or gym as I like to call it.

Bruce POV

I watched as Steve left and told JARVIS what Steve had told me. After putting up the arrest of Gabe Ugliano, I walked up to Scott.

I silently thanked Steve for laying Scott on his front. I quickly got to treating Scott's back where several whip marks had opened back.

Sewing up his wounds and then I managed to bandage up his back without waking up Scott. Once I was done I made sure everything was fine, the badges not too tight but not too loose.

I then backed up towards the door and turned down the lights, dimming them but not turning them completely off. I shut the door and made my way towards Steve, as JARVIS had told me he was in the gym.

I stopped at the door and watched Steve take down yet another punching bag and put another one up. I cleared my throat, just as he began to punch the punching bag. He stopped and held the bag still as he turned towards me.

He was covered in sweat and you could clearly see he was quite tired and stressed.

"How is he?" He asked as he faced the bag again, waiting for the news.

"He's fine, I sorted out his back and he's resting peacfully in the med bay!" I saw him instantly relax at the news and heard him sigh in relief.

"That's good!" He walked over to the bench, unwrapping the cloth he uses to protect his hands, and sat down, catching his breath. I sat down next to him and looked out the windows.

New York was bustling around as usual, all happy. Well not really happy as many were angry, not able to get to their destination on time or the simple fact that they were stuck in traffic all the time. It was mid day so it was a bit more busy than the rest of the day as people went out for lunch or just came out of work for their break etc.

"We should get some lunch..." I trailed off and stood up, offering a hand to Steve who gladly accepted it. I helped him up and, after letting go, I started to lead the way towards the kitchen where I asumed the others were, probably already eating lunch.
