Well... another person finds out my secret... hmm... I wonder how much longer until everyone finds out.

-Memory of My Mother-

Y/N P.O.V

Right now I'm sitting in the classroom, listening to the teacher in boredom. I pretty much knows what the lesson is all about. Being home-schooled, my teacher taught me everything. From the most basic, to the most complicated. So what I learn right now is nothing to me, since I've already learned about them before.

I'm sitting next to Peter. This is the only lesson that we have together. I place my chin on the palm of my hand, as I try to focus. But it's impossible to. Which in the end, I just turn my gaze and looks outside of the window.

"Mr. L/N!" I jump when the teacher calls out for me. "Yes sir!" I said as I stand up on reflect, saluting him. The whole class starts laughing at me.

"What are you doing?" Peter said, as he pulls me to sit back down. I just look down out of embarrassment. 'Gosh... this is so embarrassing' I thought to myself.

"Detention... now!" The teacher said. I silently get up and walk out the class. I make my way to the detention room.

When I get there, I take a seat on one of the seats. I place cross my arms. Then I place it on the table, followed by my head. Tiredness starts to consume me, I give in and close my eyes as I slowly drift off to sleep.

Dream

I was 5 years old, dressed up as I'm ready to go for a trip. "Mommy! Are we going now? I can't wait to meet grandpa and grandma!" I exclaim.

My mom walks down the stairs, giggling. "Patient, sweetie... yeah, we can go now" she said. I squeal in pure delight.

Dad chuckles as he walks over to me. He picks me up. "Looks like my little princess is happy for leaving me..." he said, faking sadness. "Daddy!! I would never do that... I'm sad that you can't come with us..." I said. He just starts laughing. "I know, sweetie... I know... I'm sorry that I couldn't come with you..." he said. "Yeah... it's okay... I understand that you're busy..." I said. He hugs me tightly. "You're the best a father could ever ask for... I love you, princess" he said. "Daddy... too tight" I said. He loosen his hug and kiss my cheek as he apologize, making me giggle.

The Scene Changes

Now I'm on an airplane. The whole thing was a chaos. I'm sitting on my mom's lap as I cry. She's holding me tightly. I close my eyes tightly, to scared to watch. Back then, I still don't know about my powers.

"Shh... it's okay, sweetie... don't cry... it's okay..." my mom whispers softly into my ear. "Mommy... I'm scared..." I wailed. Then the plane crash.

End of Dream

I sprung up in shock. I place my hand on my chest as I try to calm down. I've been having that dream for a while now. Sometimes it's worse than the others. It's like everything is repeating itself.

I look down at my watch and realize that my detention hour has ended. I get up from my seat and walk out of class.

I walk towards the cafeteria. Peter wave at me as soon as I enter. I walk towards him and sit down next to him. He wrap an arm around my shoulder. "Are you feeling okay? You look so pale... are you sick?" He asks. I just shake my head "y-yeah... I'm okay..." I said softly. He just hum and push a plate in front of me. "I bought you some meal... eat up..." he said. I smile at him "thanks, Pete..." I said. "Anytime..." he said. I just begin to eat silently. Only talking back to him once in a while. But most of the time... I spend it in silence.

Time-skip

I'm walking towards a familiar place. With a bouquet of flowers in my hands. They're my mother's favorite once.

I walk towards tombstone, with my mother's written on it. I proceed by kneeling in front of it. I place the flowers down, and begin praying.

My mother died in a plane crash when I was 5. We were on our way to my grandparents house... and I was the only one survived. My powers starts to resurface since then.

"Hey mom..." I said. Placing my hand on her tombstone. I smile sadly. "I has been 11 years now after you've left me on this world. How've you been doing up there?" I said. Of course I got no answers. Just silence.

Tears starts to pool up in my eyes. "I miss you so much mother... it's been so hard without you... you've always have a solution each time I have a problem... but now that you're gone... I don't have anyone to turn to..." I cried out.

"That's not true, Y/N..." I jump at the voice as I turned around. "Peter?" I said. He looks at me with a sad smile.

Then he walks over to me. He place his hand on the side of my head, pulling me closer so my head is leaning on his shoulder.

"So that's why.... you look down today. It's your mom's death anniversary, isn't it?" He said. I just close my eyes as I put my whole weight on him. I broke down into tears.

After a while, I finally calmed down. "I'm sorry you have to see me like this..." I said. "It's okay Y/N... you're not alone... you have me... your Father, Mr. Stark and everyone else who cares about you...." he said, trying to comfort me. "There's one more thing you didn't know..." I said. "What is it?" He asks.

"My father died a year after due to depression, he killed himself" I said. He stares at me in shock. "B-But... Mr. Stark is..." he said, in confusion. "No... I was adopted by him... a week after my dad passed away..." I said. "W-what?" He said in shock.

"My parents was a close friend of his... they introduce me to him when I was very young. When my parents passed away... he feels the need to protect me and the fact that I have these powers... he wanted to train me, so he took me in and raise me as his own" I said. He just looks at me... completely speechless. I just smile softly at him.
