Twenty-three days.
Each day seemed to drag on, and it also seemed like time was just skipping on as each second, hour, and day went by. It was hard to believe that it had only been less than a month.
Twenty-three days since the snap took place, and also the last time Luna has seen or spoken to Peter.
It felt like a lifetime ago.
But Luna didn't have time to think about any of that as she continued her work at the compound. It didn't matter how much time has passed since that day. What mattered now is what they were going to do to fix it. Everyone was handling every single step and plan with extensive care.
Working was all she did, but she was certainly glad to do it.
The girl was startled as Rhodes walked up to the table, slamming down a stack of papers right next to her.
Luna jumped, piercing her eyes at all of the white files that were stacked right above where her chest was. She sighed, already knowing what they were.
"More reports from people around the city." Rhodes sat down. "Even from around the world. They're starting to get real impatient."
Steve rubbed the bridge of his nose as he let out a deep breath.
Everyone around the world knew that the Avengers had everything to do with this situation. People from all over the place were sending in reports and demanding to know why this happened and what they were going to do about it. They were angry and confused, which is why it was hard for Luna to even look at any of these files.
"We can't tell them anything." Steve crossed his arms. "Not yet."
"Agreed." Natasha was quick to reply. "It would be too dangerous."
Luna really felt for this people. They were normal human beings just like her. If it weren't for her own personal connection with Peter, she would be stuck in the exact same boat with all of them. She would be just as angry, devastated, and confused about this whole thing. She wanted to help as many people as she possibly could by giving them some answers, but Steve and Natasha were right. They couldn't risk putting anyone in any danger.
Not when Thanos was still out there.
Thor and Rocket walked into the room, the raccoon having an annoyed expression on his face as he walked side by side with the god.
"Can you tell lightening boy here to back off and let me do what I do best?" He huffed in annoyance. "He's practically breathing down my neck and rushing me to find a signal."
"It's been weeks already." Thor crossed his arms as he towered over the small animal. "Don't you think you should've at least found something by now?"
