Today started out a good day. The avengers moved in with Tony at stark tower and they brought me with them and that means Nick fury wasn't here to lecture me about something. I didn't have school today. The avengers and I were like one big family. Steve and Thor where watching tv on the couch while Bruce was in the kitchen. Clint and Natasha were talking about Budapest. And Tony was taking me out for ice cream.

Nothing could go wrong..... At least that's what I thought. As Tony and I were about to walk out the door a load alarm started to ring and it just go louder and louder and i have super hearing. Tony finally turned them off and then looked at us with fear in his eyes. " Loki has been spotted down town! " he said looking a every one but me. They all stood up ready for a fight they knew they would win.

Steve grabbed his shield of the black leathered couch he was sitting on and Thor held out his hand and his hammer came flying into it. Clint moved a picture that kept Natasha's guns and his and his bow and arrow behind it. They all headed up to the roof and I followed them for I too was ready for a fight. As we got to the roof Tony was walking, but as he walked his suit kept attaching itself on to him.

Every one was pumped up as they walked into the jet. " dude you guys this fight is going to be epic! " I said with confidence that soon faded when they all looked at me with that face that said I could not go with them.

" it's too dangerous for you " Steve said.

" Loki is pretty powerful and we don't want you to get hurt. " said Natasha looking at me and I knew she could tell that I was upset.

" I'm going no matter what you guys say " I said as I charged my way threw them but before I could sit down in a seat, Clint grabbed my wrist and pulled me in side.

" your staying here weather you like it or not okay " he said with a stern voice looking me straight in the eye.

" fine " I said with an angry voice. He rushed out and I followed and stopped at the glass door. I looked at the avengers as their jet rose up and they looked at me and then they were gone.

Avengers P.O.V

We all looked down at Any with sad faces

T- I hate leaving her like that.

N- it was for her own safety, Loki would destroy her without even blinking.

S- she is a strong girl but no strong enough to take on Loki

C- she looked so disappointed when I had to drag her back into the house.

B- she probably hates us

Th- don't forget this is a child we are speaking of, she needs to be treated like one so she can learn that no means no

We all nodded our heads agreeing that is was a right choice to leave her their

Any's P.O.V

I can't believe they actually left me, I thought to my self. I was angry but I knew they were trying to protect me. I walked to the living room and the. I Heard a knock in the door " who is it? " I ask.

" pepper " she said with a sweet sounding tone in her voice.

I opened the door and found pepper with a tray of brownies. " let me guess, the avengers ask you to baby sit me " I said slightly mad.

" they told me to make sure you were okay " said Pepper, I let her in and me we talked while before we went to watched a scary movie called The Call. Pepper has been like a mom to me every since I was little. She turned the channel when she saw the movie now non age appropriate for a 14 year old girl. We then ended up watching frozen.

Later that night the avengers came home looking tired from the fight. Steve sat right on the couch ready to fall asleep and the rest of the. Sat down looking at me and then Steve shot right up "sorry we didn't......." I left and ran upstairs before I let him finish. I was to upset to talk to them but I knew one of them would come up to talk to me.

I heard them say good bye to Pepper and the Steve said he would go upstairs to talk with me. I quickly grabbed my phone off my white desk so it looked like I wasn't listening to them and I did that just in time. " Any..... Can I come in? " ask Steve in a caring voice.

I sighed "sure" he walk in slowly and once his blue eyes met mine he smiled and sat down.

"You okay...... We all know you were upset that we wouldn't let you come" he said as he looked at me with caring eyes.

"I'm fine...... It's just.... I've never been on a mission or a fight with you guys. How do I know if I can trust my powers if I haven't even used them to fight anyone." I said in a sad voice " what if Loki or some one worse than Loki shows up and your not here to fight them.... I'll be by my self not knowing what to do or how how to fight them because you guys never gave the chance to learn how to fight them "

I had my eyes on my phone and every time I glanced at Steve his eyes were on me. " we will alway be here if something like that happened and I promise you will get your chance to fight along side with us... But you just have to be patient." He said with a reassuring voice.

" okay " I said finally looking up at him. He had circles under his blue eyes and I was kinda glad I didn't go because they all looked tierd. He stood up and started heading out the door but turned he head around when he got their and smiled as he said goodnight.

I changed into my pajamas witch was a pair a black shorts and a sweat shirt that had a captain america shield on it. Steve gave me this sweat shirt when I was 10, we where at the movies and I was freezing so he went into a store and bought me it. It was my favorite sweat shirt. Steve has always been like a dad to me or at least a fatherly figure.

I laid down on my soft bed and closed my eyes and began to dream. I dreamed about the fight they went to and I pictured I was their. I picture the tall building that looked like they reached to clouds, I picture the coffee shop that was across the donut shop, I pictures the busy streets, the cars honking and engines running, imagined people talking and dogs barking at other dogs and babies where crying because the cars were load and so they couldn't take a nap.

Then I imaged me, Standing beside the avengers who all looked so confident they were going to win. I picture Loki, his long black hair that was shoulder length his green eyes that showed fear that he was going to loose and his wicked grin he made. I dreamed about us fighting as a team defeating the bad guys and people cheering from the side of the streets.

I then pictured me coming back.... Back home exhausted and teird ...... To tired to move that I would just sit on the black leathers couch as we all talked about the fight and how we won and the strategies we used to delete the bad guys. I then woke up.... The sun was bright and the sky was beautiful.... I wasn't mad anymore that I couldn't go to the fight. I was excited for when the day would come when they would say that I could be apart of their team. Thinking of that day brought a smile to my face. I loved my life here at stark tower..... I had a family here.... A family that cared about me.
