Jade Stark's Story *On Hiatus*

Prologue

~16 Years Ago ~ May 2nd~

Tony sat next to Ava's hospital bed, he smiled down at the tiny pink bundle in his arms. The little girl opened her eyes and looked at him. Ava shifted in her sleep

Tony turned the baby towards Ava "That's your Mama. You look just like her"

"She has her daddy's eyes" 

Tony looked over and saw Ava was awake, he handed the baby over to her "Yeah I guess she does"

Ava looked down at her daughter "Any name ideas?"

Tony smirked "The name Ava is really pretty"

"We can do Ava as a middle name." She rolled her eyes at her husband. "But what about... Jade for the first name" 

Tony looked at the baby, she reached up and grabbed his finger in her tiny fist "Yeah. I like it"

"Jade Ava Stark..."

~4 Years Later~

Jade was 4 years old now. She was playing at the park while Tony and Ava were sitting on a bench nearby

"Hey, little girl... Is that your daddy over there?" A man asked pointing to Tony

Little Jade nodded. Another man walked over "Tony Stark's daughter? Do you know what we could get for her?"

The first man nodded and picked up Jade, who started to fuss

"Shh, it's okay. We're going to take you somewhere"

They left taking Jade with them

A couple of minutes later Tony looked up and noticed Jade was missing 

"Ava where's Jade?"

They got up and started searching everywhere for her. When they couldn't find her they sent out a missing children's report, with Tony even putting out a reward for her safe return

~A Year Later~

They still hadn't found Jade. Tony was sitting next to Ava's hospital bed, she had gotten sick after Jade went missing

"Av... Please wake up..."

She hadn't been doing good, they said that after losing Jade her heart started to fail. Ava hadn't woken up for a few days and the doctors didn't think she ever would. Their suspicions were confirmed, not even a minute later when Ava's heart monitor went flat. Tony called a doctor and then was ushered out into the hallway

10 minutes later the doctor walked out

"Mr. Stark... I'm so sorry. We tried everything we could do..."

Tony walked back in and sat next to Ava's body 

"Ava... I-I'm sorry... This is all my fault. If I had just kept a closer eye on Jade she wouldn't have gone missing and you wouldn't be.." Tony trailed off

~Two Months Later~

Tony spent all the time he could looking for Jade. After Ava died he wasn't the same, the doctors said that Ava died of a broken heart after losing Jade.

After the Avengers were formed Tony had less and less time to look for Jade

Until he finally found her...

~A/N~ I was writing a short story about this but I decided to write it into a fanfic. Hope you like it. Let me know if you do ~Etta
