WARINING: I apologize ahead of time. This chapter contains a bit of self harm!

Previously

I hiss in pain the whole time I wash the blood off. When I get out I use the elements to help remove the bullet, but I get nothing . I look at my bleeding leg one last time before fading into nothingness.

Pietro's POV

Iris says she is fine, but Wanda and I don't believe her. "There is something wrong. The Jaguars aren't normally like this, and Iris isn't moving." Wanda whispers to me. "We can talk once we land," I whisper back. "You expect me to just sit here while our teammate and friend is in pain?!" She whisper-shouts. "I will talk to her after the ride. So yes. Stay quiet." I tell her. She frowns but obeys.

A few minutes later the jet lands. Iris runs, or limps, out of the jet to her room. I stand outside her door with the jaguars. I hear her lose her lunch and I knock on the door. No response. I try to open the door, but it's locked. "Guys! Get over here!" I shout. After a few tries, JARVIS opens the door and we find Iris lying on the ground in a pool of her own blood. I pick her up and run to the hospital as fast as I can. After the nurses take her away, I run back to the tower to tell everyone what had happened.

SLAP! I rub my cheek. "Did you have to slap me that hard?" Wanda sits on the chair, "I told you we should've talked to Iris on the plane! Now she's in critical condition!" Tony frowns, "I shouldn't have taken her as my partner. I'm an idiot." "Brother Tony, just because Lady Iris isn't in a healthy condition does not mean you should put yourself down. She is a strong young woman. She shall be alright." "Yeah, listen to Thor. Except you're right about the idiot part." Nat says under her breath. I sit down on the chair, waiting for Iris to wake up.

Iris's POV

My eyes flutter open and close as I adjust to the light. "Thank god you're alive!" Wanda hugs me. I don't smile. I can't. "Iris, what's wrong," Steve asks. "I'm sorry." They stare at me. "Why do you say that," Clint asks. I answer, "I'm sorry I made you worry. I guess I'm just weak. I can't even handle a bullet wound." "No you're not weak. Maybe not as strong as me, bu-" Tony is met with several death glares. When they're distracted I grab my clothes off the table and change. I pull off my IV and the other medical supplies attached to me. I sneak past them and run out the door. "Iris!" I smile at how much they care.

I walk outside and down the streets. I walk past the laughing children, the street performers, couples walking hand in hand, wondering each person's story.
As I walk along the street, I accidentally run into a man on his phone. He stumbles into the street. A car speeds down the street towards the man. I quickly run and shove him out of the way. We land on the sidewalk. I get up and lend the man a hand. He takes it, and I pull him up. "I am so sorry! I wasn't looking where I was going and knocked you in-" "Hey! Calm down I'm fine! And I was the one that ran into you. I just happened to be the one who ended up in the street." He looks up at me. Tears fill my eyes. "A-are you ok? Are you hurt?" He asks. "D-Devon?" His face goes pale, "I-Iris?!" I nod, and tears also run down his face. We pull each other into a hug. "I-I thought you were dead!" Devon smiles sadly, "I am. This is my spirit form. I just wanted to see you again and tell you to watch out." His figure disappears, and I'm left alone. Again.

I walk in the living room where I'm greeted with a ton of hugs. "What's going on?" I ask, pushing everyone off me. "Are you alright?!" Bucky asks. "We saw what happened," Steve added. "Wait, what?! You watched me?!" "Maybe" Tony said quietly. I push through everyone, run to my room, and slam the door.

I reach under the bed and pull out a knife. "Me estás mirando ahora?!(Are you watching me now?!)" I shout to the camera. I slowly cut through the skin on my wrist. Blood starts dripping from my hand. I laugh maniacally when Kora knocks the knife from my hand. I can't control my actions. My mind can no longer control my body. What is happening to me?! She growls as she picks it up and throws it to the bathroom. I walk towards the knife, but Kora blocks my path, growling louder than she ever did before. She stands on her hind legs as she pushes me back. Unfortunately, Kino knew what was happening, and made me trip. I fall and hit my head against the wall. I curl myself in a ball as I regain self control. Kino opens the door for Tessa, Grey, and Blue to help comfort me. I soon have another panic attack, and this time, I pass out without warning.

Tony's POV

"JARVIS, turn on the camera to Iris's room." "Already on it, Mr. Stark." The live video shows on the screen. "Me estás mirando ahora?!" We watch helplessly as she cuts herself. We see two of the jaguars fight her. Iris eventually looses and has a panic attack. "We have to help her." Wanda heads towards Iris's room. "No. We have to let her do this on her own." Tony replies. "Do what on her own? She's been alone for years! You think that leaving her to suffer a panic attack is ok?!" She shouts. Loki and Bucky watch the video feed. "It's too late for comfort." Bucky says, causing us to look at the sleeping Iris.

Iris's POV

I am covered in blood. Not mine, but Devon's. I scream when I see his body on the floor. Everyone around me screaming, "You're a monster. Monster. Freak." All these comments I hear at school. I've killed my brother. I can turn into animals. I talk to the elements. Why wouldn't these be true. I look around me. My brother's blood everywhere. "Wake up." A voice calls."WAKE UP!"

"WAKE UP!"

I shoot up quickly. My right hand on fire, ready to attack. The figure backs up quickly. "Iris, calm down. You're having a nightmare, that's all." I soon recognize that voice as Bucky, so I stop myself. I sit on the bed with tears in my eyes and pet Blue. Bucky sits next to me. "Want to talk about it?" I shake my head no. "What are their names," he changes the subject. I smile, "Line up guys. It's time for an introduction." They all line up, oldest to youngest. "Meet Blue, Tessa, Kora, Grey, and Kino. Then there's me. I'm older than Kino." I smile and hop off the bed and grab my bag.

I reach inside to grab my clothes, but it's empty. I growl and run out of the room. I run into the person I want to see. "What's got you in a rush?" Wanda asks. "Where are my clothes?!" I demand. She laughs,"Those? Tony threw them out." What am I supposed to wear now?! "Ok. What am I supposed to wear now?!"

"Kitten, we'll take you shopping for some clothes. Then we can go out for ice cream and a movie!" Tony shouts like a kid. I roll my eyes and giggle. I run to my room to get ready. Wait. "Tony!" I hear laughing down the hall. I can't help but smile. I love my new family.
