"Do you swear to tell the truth, only the truth, and nothing but the truth?" A woman asked both Steve and Natasha as they stood in front of many politicians and higher ups.

"Elora, buckle up. We're landing soon."
"Alright Mommy," Elora dutifully plopped down in the co-pilot seat, buckling up, "I can't wait to see Daddy!"
Sending her a small glance of surprise, I smiled. Because she grew up around two different languages, she often slipped into one or the other, calling me ejo and Steve gysk in an English sentence. She was young and struggled the same way I did.
Flipping the necessary switches for a smooth landing. Sighing dreamily, I nodded in response to her earlier statement, "Me neither."
The ship rumbled as it passed through Earth's atmosphere. Check, double, triple check. All to make sure we would land correctly. Even though we never had any problems when returning home.
The ship passed through the atmosphere. Leaning our heads against our seats, we waited until New York was in sight to unbuckle and move around again. Automatically, the ship landed in the parking lot of our apartment building, barely any cars in the surrounding spaces.
Quickly, I whipped out my phone and texted Steve to tell him we were on Earth. Based on our last conversation, he should have been back from his group therapy session and at the apartment.
"Do you have everything?" I questioned Elora, grabbing my own bags and slinging them over my shoulders.
"Yep! I even have the present quekni and quekno gave me!" Elora embraced the stuffed Orflak- sort of a wolf but with longer, blue fur- my parents had gifted her before we left for Earth.
Smile stretching across my face, I chuckled. Elora was adorable, full of light and life. She was what I needed to keep pushing on. Her and Steve.
Stepping out of the ship I took in a deep breath. Earth's pollution levels had dropped exponentially since the snap. A plus side within the darkness of the overall situation.
We took the elevator up to our level. After a brief struggle with my keys, I managed to swing the door open.
"Gysk!" Things forgotten in the threshold, Elora jumped into her father's arms. Steve laughed, spinning Elora in the air, "I missed you!"
Steve set Elora down, kneeling to her short height, "I missed you too. Did Grandma and Grandpa give you that stuffed animal?"
"Yeah! It was a present because I've been doing good in school! I'm gonna put it on my bed."
