I checked on Percy before my run, he was sleeping soundly in his room unlike the other night. I hope it was a good sign that he wasn't in the same state. Maybe somehow knew that I had put Gabe in jail. Hopefully.

After a few more moments making sure he was positively all right I went for my run. I passed a small grocery store during my run I bought an apple, some snacks for kids, and a car seat.

I decided that I couldn't finish my run with groceries so I went back to the tower. I quickly placed everything in it's place then took an even quicker shower.

I walked to the room Percy was in and slowly opened the door. "Good morning, Percy.", I smile as he groggily rubs his eyes. His eyes widen than her relaxes seeing me.

Percy giggled happily jumping into my arms. "Morning". Then snuggled into my shirt. "Warm". I overcame my surprise then hugged him back. I smile down at his little face pull him closer and bring him to the kitchen.

The moment was reached the dining table he leaped from my arms. He just began to run around the table.

"You got so energy huh kid?", Bruce smiles. Instead of answering Percy boops his nose and runs for the couch. "You just booped my nose.". Then he looked at me his face not turn green but a dusty pink, " Your kid just booped my nose."

"One: not my kid. Two: What is with sudden energy boost?", I question watching as he practical zooms around Clint.

"ADD maybe ADHD. Wish could ask him but I doubt he would know. Or he could be normal and We're just not used to kids.", he beamed.

"Kid, don't do that", Clint yelped as he watched Percy almost start a Call of Duty game. Percy looked him dead in the eyes and hit start. "You little-". He didn't even finish his sentence before Percy burst into giggles and high tailed it.

I looked backed at Bruce, whom gave a loud sigh, "I will do a checkup later right he need to burn that off.". I nod.

Percy leaps into my arms. "I am safe now", he smiles triumphantly. Clint gives a playful glare then huffs and walks away.

"Time to eat. Then we will be going to a top secret surprise place. His eyes widen with delight. "Do you want blueberry pancakes again"

"Blue"

He eats his food at the pace of Thor at dinner and pokes my arms til I finish mine. We clean up quickly and leave to burn some energy.

--------------------------------------------

I bound after Steve as we walked at first everything seemed strange but the further we walked the more I got in idea of where we were headed. The park were we met. "Park. We are going to the park". Steve let out a low laugh as I takes his hand and pull him to swings.

I sit down and he starts to push me. "Mom pushed me last time." I mumble looking at the sand under me. He gave a light hug and told me he would be right back. I nod, "I will be on the slide when you get back.".

On my third time sliding do the slide a hand grabbed me. The strong arm and a bad smell, Steve does not smell bad, the hand gripped tighter, Steve does hurt me. I tried to yell Steve's name but the person pulled out a pocket knife and stabbed me.

My vision got super blurry with a person moving in a picture. "Percy!", if voices could blurry that is how he sounded.

--------------------------------------------

Kids are screaming all around us but I didn't see why until I looked at the slide where Percy was. Before I could stop myself I screamed his name.

The person that stabbed him, a male with a pocketknife, began to flee the scene. That's the last time I bring him to this park. In any other circumstance I would've gone after the man but right now Percy needed my attention. And Bruce was giving it to him but he needed both of us.

"Friends do you need help", Thor's voice boomed. I look at her flying saving grace and little Percy into the air. His eyes widened taking in the sight then it seem to register in his head what we wanted. He gave us swift nod picked him up and flew home.

We raced home ourselves, glad that Thor would get back before us. After what felt like eternity I was standing in front of a bed, a hospital bed that held Percy. I reached for his hand give it a light squeeze and sat down waiting for him to get up.
