This Is War

Chapter Three: This Will Be Fun

Slowly, I walked back to the Avenger's floor in Avenger's tower. The only thing that I could think about was what Spiderman had said. What did he mean by see you later? Would I meet him again? I doubt it. I couldn't think of anything but what he had said. That was the first time I have ever met him, but then I thought that maybe he had something to do with my Dad. Wait, my Dad. My Dad was still angry at me. I don't know if I can see him right now. I'm not mad at him, but I don't know if he has forgiven me. Soon I reached the elevator. I really didn't know if I was ready to see anyone again, but I knew I would have to at some point. At this point I was on the Avenger's level. The elevator dinged and opened. Natasha sat there waiting for me.

"I didn't expect you to come back this early," she said.

"I know. Me either." I sat down beside her.

"You Dad hasn't come out of the lab."

"Is he still mad?" She looked me, deep in my eyes. She could see that I felt gulity, regretful.

"It'll be fine. He'll be fine. If you regret what you said, go apologize." I nodded and I stood up. I walked slowly to the lab. I didn't know what to say.

"FRIDAY, what is my Dad doing?"

"Mr. Stark is in the lab working on a secret project," the a.i. responded. Finally, I stepped foot in the lab. I saw my Dad picking apart small parts and putting them in a box. I knocked on the wall. He turned his head and we looked into each other's eyes. He turned back to his work.

"Hey Dad."

"Hey kiddo," he replied.

"Can we talk?" He turned in his chair to fully face me. He hesitated for a moment then answered.

"Sure, what is it."

"Earlier, I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said and I-"

"Hey, look we both some things we shouldn't have said, and I'm sorry too."

"Thank you."

"No problem, well I'm working on something for you."

"Really, let me see!"

"Well it's not done but-" I laid my hand on the metal table. Dad reached for a wrench.

"Lordy!" He threw his hand from the table and the wrench went flying across the room.

"What happened?"

"Did you not feel that?"

"No." He was shocked. I looked at my hand and began to shake.

"Hey, hey! It's okay. I'm fine." He grabbed my shoulders and held me still.

"I'm sorry. I thought I could control it." He hugged me and put his chin on top of my head.

"Maybe we can train, work on controlling it. You know?" I looked up at him with wide eyes.

"You're serious?!"

"Yeah, sure I mean if you want to. I have to learn to live with your powers just like you. So yeah."

"Well let's go then!"

"Let me get Nat to warm you up." Tony called Nat to the training room. Soon I met Nat in the training room.

"The first thing to do is stretch." So we stretched.

"Next, since I, along with Cap, have been training you how to fight you have mastered mixed martial arts, become very well trained in kickboxing and have your purple belt in karate."

"Yes, you have been training me since I was nine or ten, Natasha." She laughed. Then Cap rushed in.

"Hey, Nat we have a lead on Rumlow."

"I have to go." This always happened. We would be interrupted in the middle of our training session. So it was a normal thing and is why I haven't learned more in fighting.

"Okay, let's go." I began to walk with them, but they stopped and turned around.

"What? You can't go," Steve said,"Katie it's way too dangerous."

"My Dad isn't going because he has some business thing to go to. He'd never know, and I could work on my powers just like he wanted me to." Steve and Natasha exchanged a few looks.

"Alright you can come, but you hid on the jet and we didn't know." I smiled and followed them.

"Wait. Let me get my suit."

"You have a suit?" Natasha asked.

"Tony made it for me."

"Meet us at the jet," Steve said. I nodded and rushed to my room. I walked inside my closet, and saw a small remote and a note. The note said,

"Katie, I made this for you after I found out about your powers. I am so sorry about what I said to you the another day. Also, I know you, and I know you will want to protect the world and use your powers for good, and I know that you are not ready to do that at the time that you are reading this. You will take this suit and you will use it without me knowing it. I will get mad at you, but I will probably end up forgiving you. You are a Stark so you will do something stupid with it, but I trust you not to do so. Please use this suit wisely. I love you. By the way, push the button in the center.

- TS"

I took the remote and pressed the button in the middle. I felt really bad about doing this, but if the opportunity comes to save people then I will take it. Suddenly, the wall to my left opened up. Slowly the wall turned and a machine turned around with my suit on. It was a full body spandex suit that was plain dark blue with white lightning marks on the arms on the suit. Then there were plain black wedge knee high boots. I quickly put it on and ran to the jet. Natasha looked me up and down.

"I like it." She nodded and showed a small smile. Steve, Natasha, Sam, and Wanda were already on the jet.

"So what do we have?" I asked.

"We have a lead that Rumlow is in or is going to be in Lagos, Nigeria. It's the first lead we've had on him in a while," Steve said.
