Y/N has always kept to herself to avoid others from discovering her abilities. After a night she would rather forget, S.H.I.E.L.D. gives Y/N two choices: stay at a S.H.I.E.L.D. facility to be monitored, or stay with the Avengers to be monitored. She reluctantly chooses the latter. While learning new skills, Y/N faces the challenge of navigating the meaning of family after years of detachment from others. Then, when an old threat familiar to both the Avengers and Y/N reappears, she is given the ultimatum of helping or hiding. Despite the unknown, Y/N places herself in the world of superheroes and finds her purpose may be more than what her parents had her believe. *** [1st person POV] NOTES: Follows a timeline where Hydra is still active after 2014 (CA:WS), Avengers didn't break up after Civil War, and takes place ~one year after Bucky's return from Wakanda.
