someone has to do it.

" Y/N! come here, " tony shouted to you from the lab. you ignored him and carried on listening to your music through your headphones. "Y/N!" he was now stood in your bedroom doorway. he knew you could hear him. still, you pretended not to notice. tony stormed to the window where you were sat, staring blankly at the rain. you were still angry that he wouldn't let you go on the mission with everyone else. he always said that you were 'too young' or that you 'cant control your powers yet' and maybe he was right but it still wasn't fair. tony was now knelt down next to you tapping the desk to the tune of the song you were listening to. reluctantly you took off your headphones but kept looking at the rain. "you aren't still mad are you?" he asked, "what excuse are you going to use this time?" finally you meet his eyes. "I have a job for you. that is if you want it." he grinned. "what's in it for me?" you questioned, "well... I'll get Wanda to train with you and teach you about your magic stuff" he was smiling like an idiot now, this meant he was probably lying. "fine. what do I have to do?" you knew it would be stupid. "do you by any chance remember Loki? you know Thor's brother, the one who tried to kill us all." he started to walk away and motioned for you to follow. you got up and followed him down the hallway. "of course I do"

the memories started to come back, buildings crumbling, your family being crushed, having to crawl over your sisters dead body to escaped the burning car. it all came back. you couldn't let it get in the way now. quickly you pushed the memories aside and continued walking.

"well I need you" he turned and pointed at you "to watch him, teach him to be good, help him" you stopped walking. "no tony, not this. you cant ask me to do that! not after what he did to me and my family. I cant, I'm sorry but I can't" you started to cry. tears streaming down your cheeks as you sprinted away. "Y/N wait please! let me explain" tony called after you. you slowed down and dropped to the floor. tony lifted you up and held you against his chest. "what's wrong?" he asked softly, "what did he do?" you looked up "S.H.I.E.L.D. never told you?" you pulled away. "told me what?" he looked concerned. "my whole family was killed in a car accident caused by Loki. the bastard killed my family stark! I was twelve! I watched it happen." for once tony stark was at a complete loss for words.

" I.... I didn't know" he stuttered. "I assumed they would've told you" you murmured. "I can get someone else to do it. it'll be difficult but I can. I just thought you'd be good at it. I'm sorry" tony looked down at the floor regretting ever asking but silently hoping you would still do the job. "someone has to do it" you straightened up, "it might as well be me" you took a deep breath and waited to be told what to do next.
