The blip (sequel to my stupid spider-boy)

Chapter 8

(Ferryn's P.O.V.)

I text Pepper to tell her where I'm going and head out of my room to go up to the roof. I had flown several times but I usually just let Friday do the work. I don't care to change out of my sweat pants and just grab my bag and head to the Jet.

"Where do you think you are going?" Someone asks as I walk through the living room area. I turn back to see Steve sitting on the couch.

"I was gonna go get a friend, he just lost all his family." I say quietly.

"Alright, let's go." He says as he stands and walks over to me.

"I'm fine. I can go by myself."

"How far away is this friend?"

"Tennessee." I say quietly, knowing he wasn't gonna let me go alone now.

"I'm not letting you go that far alone." He says sternly. All of the Avenger's have their moments where they go all serious and parent like on me. Steve did this alot. I nodded and he started to walk in the direction of the garage.

"We have a jet you know." I say pointing to the roof and he follows me up to the roof. Once we start to fly, Friday takes over.

"So I know I haven't been around much lately. So can you explain how you got the powers? And what happened earlier." I nodded and explained how the Shitari weapon gave me the powers.

"Anyway about a year ago I started to use the powers more. I could mostly control it but after a while I would lose control. The first time I just waited for all the power to calm down. After the first overpower little things would make me overpower all over again. I eventually found out emotions would make it flare up just as bad as me over using my powers. Peter would help me calm down." I stop, and take a deep breath.

"Peter?"

"Yeah, uh you haven't met him. Well, you did in Berlin. He's Spiderman." I explain to him.

"And you and Peter are.." He trailed off.

"Together, yeah." I smile, thinking about him. It makes me happy and sad to think about him. "He was with dad, in- uh space." I continue. I still don't know if they are still alive. I look at the ground and take a deep breath.

"Anyway, Dad made me my suit and used Wakanda tech to absorb the energy before I overpower. It helped but it didn't prevent the overpower. Nat and Wanda helped me learn to use my powers and I eventually learned to use the overpower to get stronger. Today my emotions got the best of me and caused me to overpower. I hadn't done that in a while." I sigh as I finish my story. We were getting pretty close to where Harley lived now.

"Wow, you have really grown up. I'm sorry I wasn't here."

"I understand why you weren't here. It's ok and I'm ok now." I say and try to smile at him. We go back to manually controlling the jet as we got closer to Harley

"So who is this kid?"

"His name is Harley Keener. Dad kinda crashed at his place for a while. Dad would send me out here when something dangerous was happening in New York. His Mom and Sister disappeared after the snap." I explain and he just nods as he lands the plane. Steve stays in the jet and I go to find Harley. He walks out of his house with a duffle bag on his shoulder. He drops it and I pull him into a hug.

"Come on." I say as I pull away. He stays quiet and picks up his bag and follows me into the jet. Steve was waiting at the bottom of the ramp. "Harley, this is Steve Rogers. Steve, Harley Keener." I say, introducing them. Harley blinks several times, surprised to see Steve.

"Hi, Harley." Steve said as he held out his hand to Harley.

"Hi, You- you're" Harley stumbled on his words as he shook Steve's hand. Steve laughs.

"Yeah, I'm Captain America. And also your pilot for tonight. Are you two ready to go?" Steve asks gesturing for us to get back in the jet. We all loaded the jet and Steve started to fly us back home. Harley and I sat in the back and caught up on what had happened over the past year. I could see Steve smile back at us every once and awhile. It was nice to just catch up with an old friend. It had only been just over 24 hours since the snap but it felt like forever. Once we got back to the tower it was almost noon. I was about to fall asleep by the time we got there. I hadn't slept in over 48 hours. It's crazy, 3 days ago everything was normal and now here we are.

"I'd show you around the facility but I think I'd fall asleep." I say letting out a light laugh. "But I will show you your room." I say and walk down the hall to one of the empty rooms. "Here we are. Make yourself at home. My room is three doors down that way, it has my name on it. If you need anything ask Friday or Steve who is down that way two doors down. Oh and Bathroom, Kitchen, and *Yawn* living room." I yawn as I finish pointing out all the essentials.

"Thank you, now you go to bed. You've had a long past few days." He says and starts to lightly push me towards my room.

"Yes, Sleep." I say and open my door. "I'll give you a proper tour when I wake up, and that might be a while. I haven't slept in several days." I say and yawn.

"Goodnight, Ferryn." He says as I walk into my room. The door closes behind me and I fall into my bed and instantly fall asleep.
