Today was the day that we held my fathers funeral for the public. I thought it was wrong but, my dad made a huge impact on these people.
"Ready?" Steve said. I nodded my head. We drove to the cemetery. Natalie was sad, after we told her that my dad and nat died, she never took off her glasses that my dad gave her and never leaves her teddy bear Nat gave her. We arrived and Natalie got out as she saw Morgan. I still sat in the car. Steve held my hand. I saw people celebrating for my father.
"If I died and someone threw party, or celebrate like that, i would be so pissed." I unbuckled myself and still didnt move. Steve walked over to my side and opened the door and kneeled.
"If you dont want to do it, you dont have to." He told me.
"I want to do it." I said as I got out. The whole crew was there. I put on my sunglasses and sat down next to Morgan and Steve.
"Now, Crystal wants to say a few words." Pepper said.
"Its okay, you got this." Steve kissed my cheek. I walked up to the podium. Pepper kissed my cheek. I took off my sunglasses, which revealed my red, puffy, eyes. I took a deep breath.
"Some of you may know him as a genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist. I knew him as my father." I stopped to take a breather. "My father, yeah, he wasn't there when I grew up, i still love him. My father not only made a difference in my life, he made every single person that is here today, he made them feel like they're safe. My father wasn't a bad person, he tried to be his best." I looked at the cameras. "He told me, before he-" i stood there, my lips shaking. My eyes getting ready to water. "Oh-" I closed my eyes.

"Mommy." I felt a tug on my dress. I saw Natalie. I picked her up. She wiped my tears away and smiled at me. I gave her a smile.
"He told me before he died, He never stopped loving, caring, or even forgot about me. I want you all to remember this, dont stop loving, caring, forgetting him, because hes still in our hearts." I finished. I looked up and saw the picture of my dad. I smiled at it.
Hours Later
"Everybody wants a happy ending, right? But it doesn't always roll that way. Maybe this time. I'm hoping if you play this back, it's in celebration. I hope families are reunited, I hope we get it back, and something like a normal version of the planet has been restored. If there ever was such a thing. God, what a world. Universe, now. If you told me ten years ago that we weren't alone, let alone, you know, to this extent, I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised. But come on, you know? That epic forces of darkness and light that have come into play. And, for better or worse, that's the reality Morgan's gonna have to find a way to grow up in. So I found the time and I recorded a little greeting... In the case of an untimely death. On my part. Not that, death in any time isn't untimely. This time travel thing that we're gonna try and pull off tomorrow, it's, it's got me scratching my head about this. But then again, that's the hero gig. Part of the journey is the end. Everything's gonna work out exactly the way it's supposed to. I love you 3,000." My dad, his recorder self smiled at Morgan and looked up to me, winked and vanished. I still felt empty. Pepper handed me and Morgan the 'Proof That Tony Stark Has A Heart' wreath she made. It brought back so many memories. She gave that to him when we here making the suits. We walked to the lake. Steve carried Natalie. I walked, held hands with Morgan. I kneeled down.
