***New Avengers Facility***

The Quinjet flew over the Compound and slowly landed on the pad. The five inside grabbed their stuff and walked off and inside. They all headed for the common room except for Bruce.

"I gotta make a call." He said.

Rhodey and Rocket nodded and kept on with the Twins towards the common room.

Meanwhile, Bruce walked off and stopped in a hallway that had a glass wall looking outside. Immediately he took out his phone and punched in a number he hadn't typed in a very, very long time.

When he typed it in, he took in a deep breath before hitting the "Call" button.

"Please, please, please!" He whispered to himself as he brought the phone to his ear.

His heart raced as he heard the beeps come.

One.........

Two........

Three.......

Four........

Fi- "Hello?"

Bruce's heart stopped and his eyes widened when he the voice of his once girlfriend.

"Betty?" He called.

There was a silence before Betty answered back. "Bruce?"

A wave of relief came over Bruce. It felt so good to hear her voice. "Oh my god, Betty! I'm so glad you're alright."

"Bruce, is that...is that really you?"

"Yeah! Yeah, it-it's me." Bruce was hyperventilating. He was overjoyed that his ex was alive. "I'm so glad you're ok."

"Bruce, what's happening? Do you know what's going on?"

"It's a long story. I-I can't exactly explain over the phone."

"Well, where are you? I'll come to you!"

That made Bruce freeze. Did he hear right? Was Betty actually thinking about coming to where he was? Maybe his mind was playing tricks on him. Yeah, that had to be it. The love he still had for her was just messing with his mind. Still, he had to be sure. "Say that again."

"I said tell me where you are. I'm gonna come to you."

Nope. Not a mind game. "Betty, I don't know if that's such a good idea. Maybe you could-"

"Bruce, STOP!" She shouted.

He actually jumped when she said that. He could already see the look on her face. Obviously, that secret fiery side she had hadn't suppressed at all.

"Now something is happening, I wanna know what. And you know that if you don't tell me, I'll find You somehow. Plus, I'll feel safer being with you. So tell me where you are. Right now."

Bruce was rendered silent after that. She definitely still had that fiery side. Best not to test it. Or her.

"Ok." He replied, slightly hoarse. "I'll pin you the location. Oh and, you may wanna pack a few things. Wait, where are you?"

Betty, having calmed down from the sound of it replied, "I'm in DC, why?"

"Ok, you're not too far then. Good. Hang on."

He pulled the phone from his ear and sent her the location of the Facility. Then he put the phone back to his ear.

"Ok, I sent it to you. Just get here, and...Betty?"

"Yes?" He could hear the concern and care in her voice. It always warmed his heart when he heard that.

"Please be careful." It was more of a statement than a request. But he still said it with the same concern, the same care...the same love that she spoke with.

"I will."

After that, they both hung up. That wasn't as bad as Bruce imagined. Truthfully, he was worried that she'd dusted like a lot of others. But he was so glad that wasn't the case.

As Bruce put the phone in his pocket, the room started to shake. Alarm same to Bruce as he ran out of his room and into Rhodey, who was back in his War Machine armor, and Rocket who were running as well.

"What's going on?" Bruce asked.

"We got company!" Rocket replied.

They all headed out of the Facility and stopped in the courtyard. Looking up, there were five small ships, roughly the size of the Quinjet, landing. Seconds after they landed, the one closest had opened and a ramp came down.

Rhodey's helmet came up and Rocket had his hands on his blasters. After the past few days they've had with aliens and ships, they weren't gonna be too careful.

Then something stepped out from the ship and descended the ramp. More behind it. It made contact with the ground and walked over to the three. As they got closer, they saw that it was a woman, and a large rocky looking person that was holding what looked like a giant bug of some sort. And the others that were getting off the ship looked human too!

But when the two people were finally in front of them did Bruce finally recognize her. He stepped out from behind Rhodey and Rocket and walked up to them.

"Hey man! Long time, no see!" The rocky man replied, extending a fist for a fist-pump.

Bruce smiled at the sight of his rocky friend, pumping his fist to the Kronan. "Hey Korg. Miek."

The alien bug squeaked at the Doctor in happiness. Finally, Bruce looked toward the dark skinned woman.

"Hey, Big Guy." She said with a smirk.

Bruce chuckled when he heard her speak. It was a voice he missed. And that voice belonged to the fiery Asgardian warrior, Valkyrie.

"Hey Angry Girl."
