" My my, aren't you a pretty little thing. " The man steps closer to me. 

I glare at him and step back. I smash into a body. I look up and see another old man. He grabs my arms. " Let me go old man! " I spit in his face. The man growls and slaps me. I flinch and whimper in pain. A metal like taste fills my mouth. 

The other man walks closer to me and smiles evilly. " You are a pretty thing. " He comes closer, and I smell his rotten breath. I gag. 

I twist in the man's arms, and he slaps me again. 

I kick the man in front of me where it hurts. He groans and falls to the floor. I kick the guy in the shins behind me. He clutches me harder, and I feel bruises forming on my arms. 

I go to scream, but he covers my mouth. I bit his nasty hand, and he yells in pain. 

He lets me go, and I stumble away. The other man grabs my leg and trips me. I fall hard onto the ground, and he scratches my arm. I kick him and punch him. He stands up and punches me in the eye. 

I yelp in pain, as the other man pulls my hair. 

I feel pain all over my body, as I get a kick to the stomach. I close my eyes and wait for another blow. 

I make a fist with both of my hands. I open my eyes and feel something wet touch my hand. 

I hear two screams, and I look over at the men. Two mini-tornadoes formed around them. One of fire, and one of ice. 

My eyes widen, as the men freeze and burn to death. I unclench my hands and the tornado's stop. The air is filled with my scared breaths. 

What just happened. I clench my hand again, and a small tornado forms around the frozen man's body. It turns into a small fireball. It comes towards me.

I scream and back up against the wall. The fireball dies, and I put a hand to my heart. 

I hear feet run towards me, and I ignore them. 

I clench my hand again, fear flooding threw my body, and the fire forms again, this time with ice. I imagine a star, and the fir and ice form into a star form. 

I hear gasps, and I unclench my hand. 

Shock flood through my body, as I notice what happened. I just killed two men. 

I can control fire and ice.

What the heck! 

I burst out crying, and feet walk towards me. Tears block my vision, but I see two pairs of feet in front of me. 

Thor and Tony. 

I bury my head into my knees and cry. 

" Oh my..." I hear Tony say. I feel my body being picked up, and I cry into my uncle's shoulder. 

" I-I, K-killed, t-them! I killed them! " I say sobbing. " I killed them. "

Uncle Thor rubs my back. " You did it out of defense. It's okay. " I hear whispering, but can't make out words. 

Uncle Thor starts to walk. I hear the restaurant door open. I wait with Uncle Thor outside while Tony gets everyone. 

My cries soften, and Uncle Thor rubs my back. Everyone hurries outside, and I stare at the ground. 

" Aura? Are you okay? " I hear Ryan ask. 

I stare at the ground and don't answer. I have bruises all over my body. I probably have a black eye. 

People start to ask me questions, and Uncle Thor sets me down. I tug ar my dress sleeve, disliking the attention. 

Questions seem to shoot at me from every direction. 

I feel frustrated and mad, and scared. I have so many emotions flooding through me. 

I feel a burning sensation in my hands. 

Why won't everyone just leave me alone! I want to go to my room! " Please! " I yell, startling everyone. " Leave me alone! I-I just killed two guys! Please! " I say tears streaming down my face. " I w-want to go to m-my room. Please understand! " I say getting angry.

Anger floods through my body. The anger I have swept under the carpet for years. I clench my hands into fists and fire shoots out of the ground, cracking the cement in the process. It forms a little tornado and spins super fast. Nat's hair blows back from the breeze. Everyone's eyes widen as they see the fire. The fire moves, and everyone backs up. 

I unclench my hands and back up. I could've hurt someone. I could have killed another person! I'm a murderer. " I'm a murderer. I-I could've h-hurt you guys. I-I'm a killer! " I say tears in my eyes. 

" No you- " Nat says cautiously stepping towards me. 

I shake my head. " No! Don't. " The fierceness in my voice stops her. " I don't want to hurt you. Please. Don't. " I say wiping a few stray tears. 

I turn around and start to run. I run from everyone. I run from the two dead men. I run from the Avengers and their kids. I run beside the shouts from the others. 

I slow down and turn around. I see the tiny figures of the Avengers and the other kids. 

I cry and run a hand through my hair. 

I could have killed them! I'm a terrible person! 

I turn to a wall and punch it, not thinking. I yell out in pain, as my fist touches the bricks. I hold my hand close to my chest and walk towards Stark's tower. 

Luckily, we aren't that far away. 

I walk into the building. " J-Jarvis. Please take me to the living room. " I say quietly. 

" Aura? What happened? You need medical assistance. I'll call Dr. Bann-" 

" No! I'm fine. Please, just take me to the kitchen. " I say tiredly. 

" Okay. " The elevator moves and takes me to the main area of Stark's Tower. I walk out, and the fridge door opens. I reach in and grab a bag of cold peas from the freezer. I Ice my hand and my eye. 

I sigh and lean back. So much for a nice dinner. 

The door opens, and Everyone piles in. 

I look down, and Bruce walks over to me. " I don't want to hurt you, Bruce. I-" 

He shakes his head. " I'll be okay Aura. You need help. Let me check out your injuries. Please. " 

I sigh. I nod, and he checks me of injuries. " You have a bruised hand and a black eye. You have other bruises around your body, that should go away soon. I would suggest you take it easy for a little while okay kid? "

I nod, and my head feels dizzy. 

I head to my room. In the elevator, I stop the door and look at every one. " Please stop looking at me like that. " I let the door close.
