A MCU fanfic A first-person journey through the life of Avery Stark. Kidnapped by Hydra. Rescued by S.H.I.E.L.D. Marked as a threat. Avery Stark never asked to be part of this world. But after years in Hydra's grip and a fragile recovery under S.H.I.E.L.D.'s watch, Nick Fury makes a decision that changes everything: she's to be relocated - not just anywhere, but to the one place she swore she'd never belong. The Avengers. Dropped into a tower full of legends, Avery is forced to confront old ghosts, reunite with the only people she's ever trusted - Natasha Romanoff and Clint Barton , and face the truth about who she is... and what she might become. Told through Avery's eyes, Shielded Hearts explores trauma, survival, and the raw, messy path to healing - all in the shadow of gods, soldiers, and geniuses. Content warning: This book contains mature themes including self-harm, alcohol use, and suicidal ideation. ----- Authors note: Hi there, reader. 💌 First of all - thank you. Whether you've made it a few pages in or all the way to the end, I'm so grateful you picked up Shielded Hearts. This story means a lot to me. It's messy and emotional and a little chaotic - kind of like Avery herself. Through her, I've poured out parts of grief, healing, found family, and that deep ache of feeling like you don't quite belong... until suddenly, you do. If you've ever felt like the world was too loud, like your past was too heavy, or like you were just trying to make sense of where you stand - this story is for you. And you're not alone. Please take care of yourself while reading. And when you need to take a break - do. I'll be here when you're ready to come back. ⭐️Tik tok account: abigail.skl 🎹Spotify play list for the book : https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0pfrmkeihro9BWfXKdzyfI?si=EEgOTi3QQhW-6Rluh1j97w&pi=w_Sk86N1TI2Zt

One thing Mazzy Stark has always found peculiar is how her scraped knees always seem to heal within a few measly seconds while the other kids have scabs over their knees for several days. Her dad always says it's medicine, but Mazzy isn't so sure about that. It isn't until Mazzy is faced with a familiar metal-armed man that she begins to realize that it isn't medicine that makes her the way she is; it is a little, red star and a man with a crooked smile. • ⚠️ This book has mature themes, like anything else you might see in a typical Marvel movie.⚠️ Updates set in Captain America: Civil War. If there are any typos/errors, please don't hesitate to point them out so I can fix them! Comments are appreciated! Enjoy!

I HAVE DECIDED TO DISCONTINUE THIS STORY gabriella barnes' life wasn't always perfectly pretty. after her brother was taken during the war, so was the she. she was one of the first victims of 'the winter soldier project'. a project that brainwashed innocent people and injected them with arnim zola's own version of the super soldier serum. after HYDRA believed the serum had worked, the training began. but gabriella didn't give in. she pretended to be weak and frail. she pretended it hadn't worked. and so they gave up. she was discarded, like a piece of meat discarded to the wolves. left in a cell to rot. but she got out. and although she got out, she was taken once again. the red room. not long after HYDRA discarded of her, she was taken once again. this time by the red room. years passed and they believed she was ready for the ceremony. but she had other plans. escaping wasn't easy, but the serum that coursed through her veins gave her an advantage. that's when shield came around. finding howard stark and peggy carter was not something ella had expected to happen. and yet there they were, the three of them on the front of the paper, under the headline "STRATEGIC HOMELAND INTERVENTION, ENFORCEMENT and LOGISTICS DIVISION" S.H.I.E.L.D had been founded.

Yet the past doesn't want to stay hidden and haunts Natasha every time she looks into her daughter's eyes and also occasionally shoots her. (the past, not the daughter) One breakdown later, Natasha decides to hunt the past back and things snowball from there through reunions, long-awaited confessions, fights with demons of the past, and some well deserved peace and quiet, ocasionally interrupted by aliens and temporary deaths. ______________________ crossposted on ao3 started: november 18th 2022 first published: 11th august 2023 finished: november 22nd 2023 (main plot) #297 in marvel - february 23rd 2025 #10 in oc - july 17th 2024 #2 in marvelcinematicuniverse - august 2nd 2024 #2 in winterwidow - february 23rd 2025 #1 in natasharomanoff - march 22nd 2025
