"Iron fist. It's been a year since she died. Just accept it and move on." Nova said, leaning on my shoulder. I slightly nodded, as my attention was drawn to the ground in front of me. We were both still on the Triskellion, but Fury had added an extra piece of grass. Probably so the team could enjoy the sun, but I used it for another reason.
            "Hey Iron Fist. I'm serious this time." Nova said, turning me to face him. "You have to let her go"
          That was the part I couldn't come to terms with. She couldn't be dead; She just couldn't be. I was supposed to tell her that I loved her that fateful day. Instead, all I got was a day of hurt and heartbreak. I felt tears welling up in my eyes, but I shook them away. I was the strong minded one on the team and I had to look the part.
          A loud echo sounded from across the field. "All heroes report to the main room. Urgent situation." Fury's voice spoke in his usual monotonous voice, but Nova and I both detected a hint of fear and amazement in his voice. We looked at each other, Nova mentally dropping the subject as he put on his helmet and flew away. I walked away but then stopped and looked back at the grave.
        "See you later Ava Ayala." I spoke to the headstone of an empty grave, before running off towards the main room to start another mission. Another mission without White Tiger; Without Ava.
