The consequence ( sequel to the price of love)

Chapter 2

Emma's POV

It's been eight months. Eight months since Brittany found that her sister was still alive and eight months since we started tracking her and Jordan.

I'm working part time at shield to help with the research.

But mainly to design new weapons and gadgets for the avengers when their time comes to fight.

Tony comes by regularly and helps me design and make blue prints, while occasionally every meal time, he brings me something to eat.

I work non stop until my shift is over, only so that I can get back to my tower and rest.

At the moment I was designing a new type of wrist stingers for Natasha.

" I brought shwarma."

A smile crept its way onto my lips as I looked up.

" hey tony." I said, looking to him as he walked forward.

He held a bag in one hand and in the other he held to bottle of coke.

" hey babe. How's the wrist things going?" He asked, setting down the stuff in his hands and sliding in a seat across from me.

I shrugged and sighed." Their coming along. I'm just behind."

He looked at me with concern." What's wrong?" He asked, tilting my chin up to look at him.

" it's nothing. It's just.....I never thought i would experience all these things. Monsters, gods, demons, telepaths, and most defiantly not you. I just never would imagine all of this would happen. And I'm just worried." I sighed, setting down my work.

" why?" He asked softly.

I frowned."everything I ever loved is right here in front of me and I'm just worried that something will happen with the battle and you'll get hurt-"

I was stopped by a familiar ring tone going off in my pocket.

It was an unknown number but I picked it up anyway.

" hello?"

" Emma hilt?"

" yes?"

" this is Angel Turner from the New York hospital. It's your mom."

I raised an eyebrow.

" what about her?" I almost snapped.

There was a pause on the other end and a deep breath.

" she's alive."

I dropped my phone, the case shattering into a million pieces as I covered my mouth with one hand.

Tony stood up quickly and kneeled next to me, his hands on me, holding me up.

" what is it?" He asked urgently.

I shivered as the room suddenly got cold.

" my mom. She's alive. She was s-supposed to d-die three months ago. They told me. And now....she's alive."

His eyes widened slightly.

" well....are you going so see her?" He asked after a while.

I shook my head frantically." No no. I can't face her. The last thing I ever said to her was I hate you...I can't face her again."

He put his hand on my cheek." Everyone forgives. Take a risk. See your mom. Ill come with you." He whispered in my ear.

I sighed and thought for a couple minutes before groaning.

" fine. But tomorrow." I grumbled, standing up.

I stuffed everything back in their places and locked the lab up, grabbing my food and walking out the door, tony not far behind me.

" you'll be fine." He whispered as we crawled into bed." I'm sure she will forgive you. Just trust me on this Emma."

I nodded and slipped under the silk sheets.

" ok." I sighed, breathing in an out.

" just get some rest babe. Well go in the afternoon." He said, kissing me on the forehead quickly before closing his eyes.

In minutes he was out like a light.

But I didn't want to sleep.

I couldn't.

Not when I knew my mother wouldn't forgive me.

But I've got to take the risk.

But I knew any way I wouldn't be getting any sleep tonight.

Not with the nightmares plaguing my sleep once again...

I don't think tony will be able to either.

I guess I am staying up all night.
