Enemies bound by fate. Lovers torn apart by betrayal. A mission that could either save the world or shatter it entirely.

Genre: Slow-burn | Angst | Action | Enemies-to-Lovers

Warnings: Smut (18+) | Alcohol & Drug Use | Violence

Evalina Baranova was once HYDRA’s brightest mind—an ambitious nuclear scientist whose fearsome intellect turned her into both a legend and nightmare. But when she turned her back on HYDRA, they ensured that she paid the price with her life. After spending decades in cryogenesis, she is unthawed into an unfamiliar world where her worst nightmare is her only ally.

While James Buchanan Barnes believes he has left the Winter Soldier behind, the looming threat of global destruction pulls him back into a world of espionage and violence. Tasked with stopping HYDRA's plans to assemble a weapon of mass destruction, Bucky must confront his demons as they resurface in the form of Evalina and an organization that tortured him for decades.

Caught in a web of lies, danger, and lingering resentment, the two must join forces to prevent HYDRA’s resurgence. But can they overcome their shared pain and navigate a relationship defiled by betrayal? Or will their history destroy them both before HYDRA has the chance?

Family: AGENT 13, Sharon [CLASSIFIED] — Sister

—————

“Yippee ki yay, mother-oops, sorry, there’s children present..”

————————

He is delightful blend of charm and goofiness, often bringing humor to even the most serious situations. His clumsy nature leads to lighthearted moments, endearing him to those around him. 

Beneath his playful exterior lies a fiercely loyal protector; Ben would selflessly throw himself into harm's way to shield his loved ones, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to their safety.

-------

Background 📖

Growing up in a family where his sister, Sharon (AGENT 13), was clearly the high achiever, Bennett always felt the pressure to live up to his family’s expectations. 

His dream of becoming a teacher was dismissed by his father, who pushed him toward a path of espionage or government work like his sister. While Sharon excelled, Bennett found solace in humor and developing a carefree persona to cope with the pressure.

—

“I don’t want to be like Sharon or you or even aunt Peg, dad! I want to teach and travel, not go around getting myself into trouble.” Ben replied.

“Son, you will be a fine young agent just like me. Being a teacher is too small of a career and you won’t be paid much.” Michael, his father, add in a stern tone. “You’re a Carter, act like it.”

“But I am not fit for that kinda job…”

“You say that now, but you will be.”

“Dad...”

—

While Ben respected his father and admired Sharon’s achievements, he couldn’t help but feel torn. More than anyone in his family, Aunt Peggy Carter had always fascinated him. She was a legend in her own right, a brilliant strategist, co-founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., and a woman who had helped shape the modern intelligence world. Yet, despite her immense legacy, Ben wondered if Aunt Peggy might have understood his desire to take a different path.

Sometimes, when the pressure became too much, Ben found himself wondering, What would Aunt Peg say if she were here?

Deep down, he believed she would have told him to follow his own path, to be his own person. Unlike his father, Peggy might have recognized that having goals—big or small—was important. But Ben never had the chance to ask her. And that uncertainty gnawed at him.

Would Peggy have supported his choices? Or would she have dismissed his dreams like his father had?

This question haunted Ben, even as he tried to balance his own desires with his family’s expectations. He longed for a mentor who would understand him, someone who wouldn’t see his dreams as "too small."

Though he eventually followed the path set out for him, Ben’s inner struggle never fully disappeared. He carried the question of Peggy’s approval with him, both as a source of strength and as a reminder of what he had given up.

—Relationship with Sharon Carter 🛠️

Growing up, Sharon and Bennett shared a close bond. As the older sibling, Sharon was protective of her little brother, often looking out for him when their father’s strict expectations weighed heavily on him. In their early years, they had a lot of fun together—playing games, pulling pranks, and exploring the streets of New York. Sharon was always the more confident and adventurous one, while Ben was more cautious, happy to follow her lead.

But as they got older, the gap between them began to widen. Sharon embraced the world of espionage with determination, diving headfirst into training and missions. She became the perfect soldier in their father’s eyes, the embodiment of the Carter legacy. 

Ben, on the other hand, grew unsure of himself. He admired Sharon’s strength and skill but resented the fact that her success only made him feel more inadequate. Often feeling torn between his personal dreams and the family legacy.

Despite their differences and the tension that arose from their father’s expectations, Ben and Sharon deeply cared for each other. Sharon was fiercely protective of Ben, even if she didn’t always understand his reluctance to embrace their family’s legacy. Ben, in turn, admired Sharon’s strength and independence, even if he resented the comparisons made between them.

As Ben began to settle into his own role in intelligence work—whether by choice or circumstance—Sharon continued to watch out for him. He didn’t want to live in Sharon’s shadow, but he also didn’t want her to get hurt. Part of his decision to follow the family path came from his desire to protect Sharon—to make sure she never faced the dangers of their work alone.

—

"I do this job for a lot of reasons," Ben once confided in a rare moment of vulnerability. "But mostly? I do it to protect you."

Sharon, uncharacteristically quiet, nodded. "I don’t need protecting, Ben."

"I know," he replied, looking down shaking his head and then looked straight at her. "But I’m still going to try."

——

—-

They weren’t as close as they had been in their childhood, but they had come to respect each other’s choices. 

Sharon continued to work in her career, while Ben had found his own way, even if it wasn’t the life he originally wanted.

| CARTER — S.H.I.E.L.D. Associate | ⚖️ |

While Bennett initially resisted the idea of following in his family’s footsteps, particularly those of his father and sister, he eventually found a place within S.H.I.E.L.D., albeit on his own terms. He didn’t strive to be a leader or a figurehead, but he knew that protecting those he cared about—and finding his own way to make a difference—was important.

Reluctant Start, Natural Talent

After years of pushing back against his father’s expectations, Bennett’s path eventually led him to S.H.I.E.L.D. He realized that, whether he liked it or not, his family’s legacy wasn’t something he could easily escape. Yet, when he decided to join S.H.I.E.L.D., it wasn’t out of a desire to live up to the Carter name exactly—it was about finding his own purpose. He just wanted to make his mark in a way that felt authentic to him.

Though Ben had always been reluctant to pursue espionage, he discovered he had a natural talent for certain aspects of the job. He wasn’t the best strategist or mastermind like other agents, but he excelled in the physical and tactical elements of the work.

——

"Watch it, Carter. You're like a kid in a candy store," Maria Hill remarked dryly, watching as Ben eagerly examined the array of weaponry laid out in the SHIELD armory.

Ben scoffed, flashing a grin. "Hill, lighten up. It's a wall full of guns, knives, and other weaponry! Look at this," he said, picking up a sleek new handgun and examining it with gleaming eyes. "And ooh, is that a new set of bows and arrows? Bet Clint would love this!"

Hill shook her head, but she couldn’t hide the faint smirk on her face. Ben's enthusiasm, though sometimes overwhelming, was infectious.

- "Maybe it’s too late to figure out what I want. Maybe this is just who I am now…"

Insecurity About His Intelligence: Though he’s smart and capable, Bennett sometimes feels overshadowed by more academically inclined people, like the tech geniuses or strategists he encounters in SHIELD. He’s more street-smart than book-smart, and while he’s skilled, he occasionally doubts whether he’s as sharp as others around him.

Short-Term Memory: He will never admit it but Ben has a tendency to forget things easily or get distracted, which results in issues for himself and others. People need to often repeat what they said a few times or Ben has to write it down somewhere to make sure he did it. He wonders if it’s on-set early Alzheimer like his aunt Peggy has but tries not to think about it too much. 

- “Can you repeat that? I only got caught half of what you said…” He replied looking up at you with a soft smile.

Vintage Fashion Enthusiast: One thing he will never admit nor you will ever except is for Ben to find fashion a causal factor in his life. He has a habit of wearing or finding timeless pieces whenever he went. Either a classic leather jacket, wrist watches, a necklace and or thick sweaters for colder temperatures.

Happy Birthday

~ alice wu gulliver x fem!oc (Astrid)

summary: alice and astrid celebrate their twins' birthday.

warnings: magical pregnancy (no men here), bad parentship and crappy writing.

note: i need to cure my broken heart 💔

The sun filtered through the trees, casting a warm golden light over the backyard, where laughter echoed and a sense of joy filled the air. Red and Pink balloons danced in the gentle breeze, and a banner reading “Happy 3rd Birthday, Cassandra and Lorna!” hung proudly across the patio. Today was a day of celebration, a day of joy, but beneath the surface, emotions ran deep for the adults present.

Alice, radiant and teary-eyed, stood beside her wife, watching the twins as they played with their new toys, her heart swelling with pride. “Can you believe they’re already three?” she murmured to Astrid, who cuddled her, wiping away a stray tear. “It feels like just yesterday we were in the hospital, holding them for the first time.”

Astrid smiled, her eyes shimmering with happiness. “I know. They’ve grown so much, Alice. Look at them.” She gestured towards Cassandra and Lorna, who were giggling as they built a small tower with colorful blocks. “They’re our little witches.”

As the twins squealed in delight, Alice couldn’t help but feel a surge of protectiveness. “I just want to shield them from everything,” she admitted softly, her voice thick with emotion. “The world is so big and scary, and they’re so small.”

Astrid wrapped an arm around Alice’s shoulder, drawing her close. “We’ll protect them together, just like we always have.” There was an unspoken understanding between them, a bond forged in the fires of their past. "When we discovered I was pregnant I was so scared.” Alice looked at her wife. “I don't want to be like them.” she didn't asked like who, she knew she was talking about her parents.

Nearby, Sharon, was busy preparing the cake, humming a soft tune. The twins adored their grandmother, her sweet and kind nature a perfect counterbalance to their chaotic personality. “Can you girls help me with the frosting?” she called, and they scampered over, eager to assist.

“Granny Sasa, look!” Lorna exclaimed, holding up a dollop of frosting. “I made a cupcake!”

“Oh, that looks delicious, my sweet!” Sharon praised, her heart swelling with love for her now granddaughters.

Lilia watched from the sidelines, her expression serious but softened by the warmth of the moment. “Don’t get too much frosting on your clothes, girls,” she said, her voice firm but with a hint of amusement. “You don’t want to give your moms a reason to be angry.”

The twins giggled at Lilia’s seriousness. “We’re careful, Granny Lia!” Cassandra chirped, brushing her hands together, frosting smudged across her cheek.

Jennifer, was nearby, setting up a piñata that hung from a low branch. “Alright, who’s ready to break this open?” she called, her playful demeanor contagious. The twins jumped up and down in excitement, their eyes shining with anticipation.

“Me! Me!” they shouted, and Alice couldn’t help but laugh at their enthusiasm. “Thanks Auntie Jen!”

As the festivities continued, Agatha observed from a distance. Though her demeanor was often cold, there was a playful glint in her eyes as she watched the twins interact with their mothers. She had always kept her emotions tightly locked away, but something about being around the girls stirred something deep within her.

They reminded her of Nicholas.

“Come on, Auntie Aggie! Time to break the piñata!” Cassandra called, her tone loud as always. The twins rushed toward her, taking her hands.

Agatha just chuckled.

The Clones

Warnings: 18+readersonly, blood kink, period sex, pet names, Captain kink, slight little, fingering, smut, fluff

Copyright: I do not own any Marvel characters or locations. However, I do own my OCs, which consist of Penny Fury, Elizabeth Nelson, Elijah Chan, Katya Venice, Violetta Moscow, Lan Le, Josh, Trang Tien, Ahni Jallow, Mai Ito, and Ghaida Kashual as well as other OCs that will come up throughout the story.

Every Avenger had been in the common room except for Elizabeth, Penny, Clint, Sam, Loki, Trang, Violetta, Ghaida, and Natasha. All of the rest of them were lounging on the couches and the armchairs, curled up together. 

Some of them were talking to each other, others were watching the Jack Hannah show on the television. The babies were all asleep in the nursery that Tony had built for them and completed about a month ago. The baby monitors were set up on the coffee table, all of them turned on just in case. The nursery was only a room over anyways and with some of them having super hearing, everything was in great hands. 

Katya had given birth two days ago and was relaxing in T'Challa's arms, half asleep. Her little boy, who she had named Lan Jr. after his father, was the cutest little thing. Elijah half felt like he was looking at his dead best friend when he stared at him. But Elijah couldn't love him any less than that. 

Since he was so new, he was in the room with them, tucked protectively in Katya's arms. T'Challa was very quiet, smiling at their new son. Elijah had always loved the Avengers like a family and he had loved all of the kids like his own. But sometimes, even he was still surprised that all of the Avengers had really accepted the kids as their own as well. 

For him, it was just that all of the women giving birth were his friends first. But he was glad for what this chapter of life was bringing. 

He was reading the message from Violetta when he felt the strange tingle in his body. His normal body heat seemed to suddenly reduce and he looked up, but then stopped as he suddenly couldn't move a muscle. Only his eyes now as Elizabeth stepped into the room. 

Everyone was looking up and at the same spot, whether by design or just chance, Elijah wasn't sure. 

He knew immediately that it wasn't Elizabeth, even though it looked like her. The eyes were different, almost black instead of brown. Elijah wanted to say something, but his mouth wouldn't move either. 

"Well then, let's get started." Elizabeth purred. 

🏊‍♀️🤠 𝓉нᶤгｄ ｐ𝐎ש- Ŝн𝐈𝒇𝓉𝓘𝕟ق Ⓜ️🪝

Elizabeth knocked all of the baby monitors off the table, some of them breaking, others just rolling to their unmoving feet. Tony and Bucky felt a mounting panic inside of them that they couldn't respond to since they couldn't move. Steve felt frustrated. Rhodey was confused. Stephen felt strange. 

Elizabeth placed some sort of hologram on the table and it light up. It came to show several cameras, maybe about fifty or so. Most of them were of all of their bedrooms- which were all pretty much empty except for three. 

Clint was in one, lounging on the bed. He looked to be asleep. 

Loki was in another, sitting up against the headboard of his bed, reading a book and using his magic while he read. 

Penny was in another one, leaning forwards. She had a newspaper on her bed and was painting her toenails either pink or red, Elijah couldn't see the colour from here. 

Trang was in another one, simply sitting at a desk, working on some sort of project. 

Suddenly, the door opened to one of the empty bedrooms and another Elizabeth walked in. She was wearing jeans and a T-shirt, so Elijah knew that it wasn't her. Ever since Bucky had put her over the kitchen table, she had only worn dresses from that point forwards. 

The Elizabeth turned as though she was going to leave, but then paused and turned to the other door in the room, which was one that led to the bathroom. 

Elijah tried to take note of whose bedroom it was so that he knew who was in there. It definitely wasn't Elizabeth's, hers was empty on the cameras. Nor was it Tony or Thors. 

The door opened and Sam came out, jumping a little when he saw her. Then he grinned, "Hey sug-" 

His words were cut off and Bucky let out a choked sound as the Elizabeth shoved a knife between his ribs, smiling all the while. Sam staggered, falling to his knees, his face open wide in shock. He pushed backwards on his hands, gritting his teeth as the Elizabeth just stood there. 

"Clone 1400 target down." The Elizabeth in the room said in an earpiece and then pressed a button on the tablet she was holding. The clone of Elizabeth in the room suddenly seemed to melt like wax and Sam hollered, pushing back more. 

Sam managed to get to his feet long enough to grab his phone and collapse on the bed. Steve's phone started ringing in his pocket and Steve had tears streaming down his face as he wasn't able to answer. Bucky's phone started ringing next and when he too didn't pick up, Sam cursed, blood pouring through his fingers. 

Tony's phone was next and then Stephen's. Bruce's, who was green around the eyes but didn't seem able to Hulk out. 

Sam collapsed on his side and was still. 

The door in Clint's room opened next and Katya whimpered as another Elizabeth clone came into the room. Clint didn't even open his eyes, until she was climbing on the bed. Clint grinned, "Hey little bird." 

Elijah waited, but the Elizabeth clone didn't do anything, just staring at the floor. 

"Little bird?" Clint asked, sitting up and reaching out for her hand. Tears rolled down her face and she turned to him. 

"I'm not her." She whispered. Clint frowned. "I'm a clone and-" 

"Clone 1465 is defective." The Elizabeth in the room said stoically and pressed the button. 

Clint flew backwards, cracking his head on the wall in his haste to get away as the clone melted in a puddle. Clint's entire body was still as a live wire and then he leapt off the bed, racing out the door. 

Loki was next, but he didn't greet the Elizabeth, looking at her with penetrating eyes. "What are you?" He finally asked, getting off the bed, skirting around her. 

"That hurt." Elizabeth snarked and then lunged at him with a sword. Loki dodged out of the way in time, before creating his own sword out of green mist. The two of them fought ferociously. Elijah noted several times that Loki could have killed her, but didn't. 

Finally, Loki knocked her off her feet and put the sword to her throat. "You're not her, are you?" 

The Elizabeth clone tried to get up, but Loki wouldn't let her, "Answer me!" 

Elijah was surprised at Loki's reaction. 

"You know, you stall to much." The Elizabeth snapped as a second one came into the room. Loki didn't have enough time to turn and protect himself, but it didn't matter. The clone never made it, as an arrow pierced its' neck. 

Loki took a step backwards as Clint slid into the room, throwing a knife into the second ones' neck. 

"What did you do?" Loki snapped. 

"They're clones." Clint said. "C'mon. Kat isn't answering her phone and I'm worried." 

They were occasionally seen, throwing open every door to make sure. Clint found Sam, who hadn't moved in a long time. 

"Sammy?" Clint asked, climbing on the bed, trying to find a pulse. "LOKI IN HERE!" 

Loki ran into the room as well, immediately starting to heal Sam. "Get him water, NOW!" 

Clint ran to the bathroom, filling a cup and came back, trickling it down Sam's throat. 

Elijahs' attention now moved to the lab where Trang got up from the chair, putting a hand against her stomach. She bumped into the computer at the side, which turned on and Trang turned to look at it. Whatever was on it, interested her enough to grab her phone. Tony's phone started to ring again. 

Then Stephen's phone. Elijah started to feel his phone start vibrating in his hand. But his thumb wouldn't move to swipe it. 

"COME ON!" Trang shouted, calling another person. And then, "Elizabeth, the spy. I need you to-Elizabeth? Elizabeth?!" 

Trang looked at her phone and then snapped out, "F.R.I.D.A.Y. where is Elizabeth?" 

She turned and then a gunshot rang out and Trang stumbled, falling to the ground. 

Tony's panic shot through the roof and Tony saw Loki put a hand against his tattoo. Clint looked at him. Sam was coming around slowly. 

"Loki?" 

"Tony. . ." Loki murmured. "Stay with him." Loki raced from the room. 

Tony waited to see some sort of clone walk over to Trang, but it wasn't a clone. It was Riri, holding a gun in her hand. 

"Riri. . ." Trang choked out, pushing herself up into a sitting position. The bullet wasn't in her stomach- which Tony wanted to thank the Lord for, but it was right by her heart. 

Riri looked at the computer and started to wipe it clean. "You're such a nuisance Tien. Taking Tony from me. You know, that's the only reason I really did this. I don't care about Elizabeth, but Sharon and I have suffered enough." 

Steve wanted to flinch as he worked out the connotation enough. Sharon must be the spy. Because of him. Because of Elizabeth and Penny. 

Riri advanced on Trang, kneeling before her. 

"Riri please." Trang begged. "You don't need to do this. You think Tony is going to love you if he finds out you killed his child?" 

Riri hesitated and it was enough hesitation before she was suddenly stabbed through the back and thrown to the side. Loki became visible again, kneeling in front of Trang. He scooped her up in his arms, setting her down on the table, starting to work over her. 

"Loki." Trang whimpered. 

"I've got you." Loki said firmly. "You're okay Trang. I've got you." 

"Targets 4 and 17 are in the Lab." Elizabeth said into the com. "Send asset 1765 and 1486 after the group." 

Tony felt relief seep through every fiber of his being and Loki reacted to it pleasantly. He looked up at the cameras. 

"They can see us." Loki told Trang. 

"What?" Trang mumbled as Loki dislodged the bullet and then started to heal her. 

"There's clones of Elizabeth and the others aren't answering their phones. They must be stuck, but they can see us in the cameras." Loki explained. 

"How do you know?" Trang mumbled. 

"Because I can feel Tony's emotions through the bonds." Loki said. "When you got shot, his fear skyrocketed. And now that you're okay, I can feel his relief." 

"Can all soulmates do that? I never felt anything from Jay." Trang said and Loki slowly helped her sit up. 

"Sometimes. It depends on the strength of the bond. It works particularly well with me because of my magic. Tony, Stephen, and Penny are the strongest of course, actually being my soulmates. But I can also feel Bucky, Fandral, Elizabeth, and Wanda too if the emotions they feel are strong enough. You and Rhodey are slowly getting there as well."

Trang smiled a little and then the two of them froze as ten Elizabeth clones entered the room. Loki immediately guarded Trang, a determined, resigned look on his face. 

"Oh." Trang whispered. "Clones." 

Loki closed his eyes, letting knives float in midair and then covered Trang's eyes as he simply killed all of them rather swiftly. 

Loki breathed in deeply, shakily. "C'mon, we need to-" 

"Loki!" 

A clone of Tony and Stephen ran into the room, frantically. Loki immediately relaxed and went to go to them, when he nearly doubled over in pain, grabbing Tony's tattoo again. 

"Loki-" 

"Don't." Loki said, holding his sword out now towards them. His hand was shaking just a little. 

"Bubs." Stephen said sternly and Loki flinched. 

"Prove it." Loki hissed. "Prove it's you." 

Stephen hesitated and Loki gripped his sword harder. Stephen shook his head, "The hard way then." 

Loki fought both of them, but Elijah knew his heart wasn't in it. And it probably wasn't helping that Tony and Stephen were both panicking internally and Loki was reacting to it. 

Loki finally pinned Tony and Stephen advanced towards Trang, who had watched the entire thing with wide eyes. Now Stephen pulled out a wicked looking knife, backing her into a corner. Trang pressed a button on her glasses, the nano-tech forming blasters. 

"Really a shame, you are quite pretty." Stephen smirked. Loki spun around, throwing the sword so that it went straight through the clones heart. Then Loki let out a yell as the Tony clone pinned him next, stabbing him through the shoulder with his knife. 

Trang raised her hands and blasted the Tony clone. It flew off, hitting the wall, and was still. 

"Loki?" Trang asked softly. Loki was just laying there, taking in huge breaths. Trang pulled out the weapon, trying to help Loki, who was reacting quite poorly. "Loki it's okay, they weren't real. Just clones." 

"I know." Loki said, pushing himself to his feet. He looked pale. "It's just. . . a lot." 

"We need to find the others." Trang said, taking him by the hand. Both of them raised their hands as Violetta ran into the room. 

"Okay what did I do?" Vi shouted, raising her hands defensively. "Do I look like Sharon?" 

"What?" Loki snapped while Trang raced forwards and hugged her tightly. 

"Oh thank god." Trang sighed. "Where are the others?" 

"I don't know." Vi shook her head. "Fury, Nat, and I just got back from SHIELD headquarters. Nat and Fury went up. Fury's off to find Elizabeth. Nat's going to find the others and let them know what's going on." 

"A bit late for that." Loki snarled with fury. 

The door to the roof suddenly opened and Elijah flicked his eyes up to see Elizabeth with Rue in her arms. Sharon was with her, her hand behind her back, holding a gun. 

Elizabeth spun, confusion on her face, "Where's Steve?" 

Sharon pulled the gun out and pointed it at her. "Sorry. I lied." 

Steve gritted his teeth while guilt and self-hatred fell on his shoulders. He should've done something about this. Something about Sharon. Should've noticed how desperate she was to get him back, but he hadn't thought she would do this. 

"Don't even try to use your powers." Sharon said, sounding almost bored. "I used a dampener on you. So, put Rue down and put your hands on your-" 

Elizabeth did put Rue down, but then lunged at Sharon, the two of them grappling for the gun. Sharon twisted, pinning Elizabeth at first, but Elizabeth knocked her elbow into her jaw and Sharon's head jolted backwards. Sharon was flipped onto her own back and Elizabeth punched her across the face. Sharon reached up with both hands, yanking Elizabeth's hair back so that she nearly did a backward roll in pain. 

Sharon punched her in the stomach and then kneed her in the face. Elizabeth couldn't roll away from the pain, thrashing in Sharon's hold. Sharon kicked her in the side and Elizabeth sprawled out on the roof. She tried pushing herself up but Sharon slammed her foot into her back. 

"God, I've wanted to do this for so long." Sharon snarled, keeping her foot pressed firmly on Elizabeth's back. "Every time Steve even looked at you I wanted to kill you. You had every male Avenger wrapped around your finger and you couldn't let one of them go, could you? Like half of them even care. Must be nice to just be an object to be used for their sexual gratification. But Steve? He was mine with actual love and you took him from me." 

Elizabeth coughed and muttered, "Can't have loved you that much." 

"You know." Sharon snarled. "If it wasn't for the fact that your mother is paying so much to get you back, even if it is to turn you into a Winter Soldier, I would just kill you right here. Picturing Steve's face the entire time I did it." 

"How romantic." Elizabeth retorted. 

Elijah snorted and was surprised the sound came out. 

The door to Penny's room opened and Elijah wanted to call out as Penny looked up and saw another Elizabeth there. Penny looked surprised and tilted her head as Elizabeth came nearer, getting up on the bed. Elijah was stunned when the Elizabeth clone suddenly started to kiss Penny. The nail polish spilled on the bed as Penny reacted enthusiastically. 

The clone in the community room sighed. "Another defective one." 

Elijah glared as the button was pressed and that Elizabeth melted as well. Penny shrieked, falling backwards off the bed. The melt of whatever the clones were made of covered her hands and the front of her body. 

Elijah's eyes flickered back up through the cameras. Sam and Clint were both fine, starting to leave the bedroom. Loki, Vi, and Trang were no where to be seen. Penny had rushed into her bathroom. Elizabeth was still on her stomach, Sharon bending down and keeping her held down. Rue was crying on the box that Elizabeth had originally set her down on. 

Sharon stood up, approaching the baby. Bucky's stomach turned, not wanting the evil woman anywhere near his daughter. Suddenly, a gunshot rang out and Sharon yelled, grabbing her side as Elizabeth rolled away. 

Nick Fury kept his gun trained on Sharon as she laid on the roof. She sneered as Elizabeth backed away, strapping Rue into the baby carrier safely. 

"You know, I think I'm actually a little hurt." Nick replied sardonically. "Really trusted you Agent Carter. I wonder how Aunt Peggy would feel." 

"She'd understand." Sharon spat. "She would've done it too." 

Steve's stomach churned at the thought. He couldn't imagine Peggy doing something like this. She had just been happy that he was alive and she wanted the best for him. She wasn't anything like Sharon. 

"Right." Fury snarked. There was a cold fury inside of him, in his eyes. 

"Step away from the controls." Another voice said, inside of the room. Elijah would've jumped if he could've. 

Natasha stepped out, her gun pointed at the clones head. 

"I don't really care if you kill me." the clone smirked. "I'm due for meltdown in twenty minutes anyways. But in the meantime, I might as well take down as many of your lovers as possible. Let's start with the other red head." 

Elizabeths' clone immediately had a gun to Wandas' forehead. Wanda couldn't do anything nor could Vision or Pietro, who were on either side of her. Everyone was just frozen like statues. 

"Or, put the gun down Natalia." Elizabeth said, "And go sit on Elijah's lap. You're all free in twenty minutes anyways." 

Nat put the gun down on the table and made her way over, gingerly sitting on his lap. He could feel her, but he also couldn't in a way. Nat squeezed his frozen hand. 

The clone let the cameras disappear so that it was just the one on the roof. A helicopter flew into frame and both Nick and Elizabeth had to dive as bullets started raining down on the roof. Sharon rolled out of the way, her back pressed up against the generator. One of them had to hit Nick through the box, because blood started pooling around the side of the crate. 

Lucinda jumped down from the helicopter and Elizabeth stood her ground in front of her. 

Elizabeth was confused, concerned, and hurt. She was terrified for Rue and Nick. Nick hadn't emerged from the box and there was blood on the concrete. Viden was telling her that the woman in front of her was her mother. But she didn't remember her and she wasn't scared of her. 

"Time to go Elizabeth. Let's end this now." Lucinda said softly. "If you'd like, we can even grab Barnes and bring him with us. A happy super soldier family of three. You, Bucky, and your daughter." 

"Sorry, but that leaves out like twenty other people that I love." Elizabeth snapped. "And you're evil." 

"That's harsh." Lucinda hummed. "I'm no different from Bucky or Loki or any of your other murderous lovers." 

"Shut up." Elizabeth snarled. 

"I'm your mother, show me some respect." Lucindas' eyes finally flared. Elizabeth stood her ground. She knew she needed to get to Nick so that she could save his life. But her water powers had been dampened, so she could only fight with her hands. 

Lucinda's eyes flickered to where Rue was crying in her baby carrier. Elizabeth's protective instincts immediately kicked in, lunging and blocking Lucinda from getting to the carrier first. 

"Not even going to let me hold my granddaughter?" Lucinda asked, seeming hurt. Elizabeth was still uncertain if this woman was serious or not. And for once, Viden was staying quiet on her thoughts. 

"Oh yeah, I'm sure you love her." Elizabeth hissed. "And then you'd turn her into a Winter soldier the first chance you got." 

"It's a longer time to live." Lucinda sighed. "Wouldn't you want your daughter to have immortality? So you don't have to outlive her and watch her die? So that her father doesn't have to watch her die? All your lovers? Immortality is a gift, E." 

"I'm not immortal either." Elizabeth snapped. 

"Sure you are." Lucinda said. "You're half Asgardian." 

Thor felt shock run through him. He wondered who her mother or father was. He wished he could move, wished he could call on his lightning, but he was a frozen as the others, unable to move an inch. 

"What?" Elizabeth asked, now surprised. Sharon was pushing herself back up to her feet behind Lucinda, looking staggered. "What do you mean?" 

"Your father had a second soulmate that he met before me." Lucinda said. "They had a daughter- you." 

"How old am I?" Elizabeth demanded. "Whose my mother?" 

"I can answer all of those questions, just come with me." Lucinda said, holding her hand out like a peace offering. "I can tell you your whole past. I can give you your memories back. Just come with me." 

Elizabeth looked at Lucinda's hand and was tempted. She wasn't sure why she felt so tempted. How could this woman even give her her memories back if Wanda couldn't? This woman couldn't be more powerful than Wanda was. But still. . . there was a strange urge to take her hand. To agree. 

The door to the roof suddenly burst open and Loki tackled Sharon, who was about to pick up Rue. Sharon and him started to wrestle on the ground as she tried to get her gun in a place where she could shoot him. Nick still hadn't emerged. She needed to act now to save them. 

Penny came tearing into the common room, skidding to a stop at the sight in front of her. Clint felt a jolt of shock, seeing Elizabeth reach out and take her mothers hand. The clone Elizabeth in the room even seemed a little surprised. 

Penny watched as her father pushed himself up from behind the box, holding his stomach. At the same time, Elizabeth suddenly yanked her arms backwards and then pushed at her mother, sending her over the edge of the tower. 

And then, Elizabeth suddenly was stumbling backwards towards the edge. Loki turned, running for her at the same time she fell backwards into the air. Their fingers swiping each other as she fell into nothingness. Her mother had grabbed her hair and taken her with her. 

Buckys' entire soul felt like it had shattered into pieces. Loki was still laying where he was and Nick had knocked Sharon unconscious. He'd sank with his back to the boxes, his eyes rimmed red as he shed tears for Elizabeth. 

"And that's that." The Elizabeth clone said, turning off the computer. She walked over to the window. "Time for us all to die." 

She didn't make it far as suddenly, her body was encased in orange smoke. Her eyes started to turn whiter and whiter until they exploded like hot eggs. Smoke poured from her mouth until it formed a sphere in mid air. There were five different coloured sections of the orb and they shattered apart, the clone and everything turning into flakes and drifted to the floor. 

Ghaida was in the back of the room, floating in midair. Her eyes were a bright orange, but they turned back to the normal brown colour as she settled back on the ground. 

The. . . well whatever had been holding all of them down freed them. Thor was immediately on his feet, hugging Ghaida. The others moved at a much slower pace though, still completely shaken by what they had seen. 

And how they were going to deal with the loss.

Rare moment.. | Marvel Fanfic

Timeline: Phase 1 Pre—Avengers — Phase 2 Pre—Iron Man 3

Non romantic-Pairing: Jason Underwood & Pepper Potts

Characters mentioned: Howard Stark, Peggy Carter, Natasha Romanoff, Maria Hill, Maria Stark, Tony Stark, Edward & Ana Jarvis and etc

Summary: You rarely see a man who’s face never looked like anything phases him, but what happens when the chips are down and his emotions take front line one night? It’s a rare moment but it makes you remember how human he really has been.

——

It was late or early in some accounts, when he awakened from his slumber. There were nights he didn’t sleep and if he did, it was short. Usually he would occupy his mind with whatever was on TV, packing for a trip and or, start cleaning up a small mess. But tonight, it didn’t suit him.

He sat near the open bar in the kitchen, leaning against the counter in his pjs rubbing his eyes and pouring himself another drink. He already had a snack from the fridge to not upset his stomach or anything. His mind looked crowded, it always seemed crowded in his opinion.

He sighed, taking a sip of his drink and exhaled.

And that’s exactly how Pepper found it.

She originally headed out to the bathroom but once she left, she noticed the lights on. That’s when she stumbled upon the blonde hair man of the house sipping a drink, it was a rare occasion. Jason was always a day drinker during a Sunday brunch or a simple weekday. But this, this was rarely the last thing she wanted to see at the moment.

She expected a late night snack at least, not a glass of cold wine.

“Jason?” She asked making her presence known, “Are you alright?”

“Huh?” He responded turning to face the strawberry blonde with a soft half smile, “I’m fine. Did I wake you?”

“N-no, I just headed out of the bathroom to pee, and I saw you here. Is something going on?”

“N-no, Pep it’s fine. I’m fine, just couldn’t sleep.”

“So you decided to drink instead?”

“Not my best moment ever seen but I had worse. I’m sorry you had to see me like this. Go back to bed.”

“Tony’s knocked out cold in his lab downstairs, he won’t be waking up anytime soon.”

Jason sighed deeply, he wanted to be alone with his drink and crackers to be honest. He wanted to be miserable in his thoughts. But he knew he wasn’t going get free of Pepper that easily. She was tough and always knew when to stand her ground. He pulled up a chair for her as she nodded, thanking him.

“What’s on your mind? You can tell me, I promise I won’t try to judge you on anything.” Said Pepper, knowing the men in this household mindsets were beyond compared to hers.

He sniffled and sighed, “It’s a lot. It’s a lot more complicated than you think.”

“Try me. I’ve seen weird stuff lately.”

“Heh, uh, I have been thinking. When am I not thinking? I’ve been trying to ease my mind on everything. I know I can’t control half of it but theses thoughts keep me up at night.”

“What do you mean?”

“My lifetime achievements are nothing special. I mean—I enjoy what I do! I get to see you, Tony, Rei, Rhodey and visit Peggy whenever possibly. But it doesn’t..um..crap.”

“It doesn’t what?”

“It doesn’t ever take away the guilt and painful decisions I’ve seen happen.”

Jason could’ve stayed quiet at that moment but the words just came out. He lived longer than expect, he has seen his own family fall and risk they’re lives. Sometimes he wishes he could end it, stop it from eating up inside but he can’t. It hurt, so much more than he knows. It was a rare occasion to see him say something like this, Pepper knows it. Tony knows it.

He always acts like nothing ever phases him and that he’s always fine. He has been doing that for a long period of years now. Always feeling like he has too, there is so much happening in the world that he can’t put that burden on anyone on how he feels. He never gets time to panic, react a certain way and or externally freak out.

But moments like this, he crumbles as his mind starts boggling and he can’t help it.

His voice hitches as he sniffed again, “It doesn’t take wipe away the whole truth. The guilt. The pain and the damage that happened…”

“What guilt? Sorry I’m not following me..” Pepper ask wholeheartedly, she knew of his story but not all of it.

“I’ve fought for paperwork, payed more than expected and traveled just to keep myself alive and safe..just for i don’t get questioned by authorities for how I look. Just for i can breath and watch Tony grow up. I thank Peggy every single day for taking care of him, her godson, when one of us couldn’t do it. But it doesn’t take away the fact that I was left behind..right where they left me..alone…”

His voice was shaky but he kept calm, taking a breath. Pepper put a hand on his shoulder.

“You seem happy now…?” She whispered, trying to be careful with her words.

“Not 100% happy.” He admitted, “I mean. Sometimes I just feel tired. It’s this tiredness and empty chest pain knowing I can’t do a freaking thing about it. I lost my sister cause she didn’t care about anyone but herself, I lost Howard and Maria…they were my family, as much as fought I loved them..Ana and Jarvis..t-they were the kindest people I met…but never had the chance to have their own children..it was horrible Pepper...i can still remember it all…what we been though..”

“What about Jack, Daniel and Peggy? I know you said Jack Thompson died being shot down during an investigation..i don’t know the details..”

“No one does..I still to do this day, as much as Jack was a pain my ass, I liked the man. I don’t know who murdered him or why..Daniel went on to almost married Peggy but he knew something was always holding him back. The SSR—SHIELD said he died during a mission, but I don’t feel like it was right..and Peggy…oh Pep..the times I thought I lost that women..”

“Oh JJ..it’s okay..it’s life and Peggy is still alive and kicking for the most part.”

“There’s peoples that I met but I don’t even think you or Tony know about. And now..”

Jason voice kept riding upwards and tears started to roll in, shaking his head, he chuckled. It would’ve looked hilarious to him, but how he carries so much weight on his shoulders and never felt like he can let some of it go. Pepper was kind enough to listen to him so late at night, when she should be asleep instead, in bed under the warm covers.

But she’s here listening to him talk, not interrupting him or telling him to stop talking about that. It was always the other way around, where he always listens and let everyone else talk. He was thankful for Pepper in that moment and hoped Tony married such an amazing women. She deserves to be more than just his assistant.

“..and now what?” She said softly, putting a hand on his shoulder.

“And now with how much the world is changing…I’m scared, no terrified what I will see next. We have gods, mutants, more men and women in suits, genetically modified people, and no knows what?! I um..shit i don’t know..” Jason replied sniffing, “The fact that Captain freaking America is alive still feels unreal to me.”

“Me too. It’s crazy. I think i had to get a drink after hearing that news.”

“I remember hearing the radio about his death during the war, Peggy crying her eyes outs that the fact she lost him, Howard feeling like he’s maybe still around wanting to search for him…and..now knowing how much I know..I think my pain will hurt more if..”

“If what?”

“If the people who I thought were dead were alive all this time but hidden behind some block of ice. It’s terrible how much I fear the thought I might’ve been lied to and it was not even justifiable that we’re only finding out now..”

Jason knows something that Tony and the public must’ve taken for granted. Must’ve missed out on and forgot about. Howard Stark’s little sister, Elizabeth Stark, Tony’s aunt and one of friends he cared for.

Lizzie or Liz for short.

His friend group originally consisted of himself, Peggy, Angie, Howard, Hank, Maria, Jarvis, Ana, Daniel, Elizabeth and a few others.

And he remembers the day Lizzie died during a mission, they were heartbroken. He remembers the long standing nights, the wishes, the questions and everything. Where he thought he should’ve been himself. Replace his life, for she could live and see the world.

And he saw her again, he wouldn’t know what to do with himself. He would probably panic, hold back a sob or two, feel sick to his stomach, question how she survived for so long and god knows what?!

His mind would feel like it split in two, as if he didn’t feel like that already.

Trade his life for her. Take a bullet for her and all their friends. But now, he doesn’t know what to think.

“Pepper, what if I was supposed to be gone already?” He wondered.

“JJ, no, don’t say that. You were meant to meet us. I believe that you were given a chance to live longer and see the world.” Pepper exclaimed.

“What happened to the no judgement part? I’m kidding. It’s just feels like I can’t breathe sometimes. My life stopped being what I would considered normal the moment I fell into the water that night and my heart stopped. I was practically died for what must’ve been 5 long minutes…it took me forever to realize what happened that during nightmare of a week..”

“Do you regret it?”

“Sometimes more than most. I wished it wasn’t like this. Honestly, it acts like blessing and feels like curse..you can’t grow old enough to be with someone, you have to love and lose people. It’s why I never married or have any kids, that I know one.”

Pepper chuckled at that, they both chuckled at the last comment. It would be funny if a kid randomly showed up at they’re doorstep claiming that they’re father was him, but it won’t happen.

“I wish I could. I wish I could’ve had a wife or hell, even husband.” He said with soft chuckle, “But I don’t date. I don’t want to have a girlfriend where I can’t give them, everything they wished for.”

He thought about Angie and Violet. But he knew he couldn’t give them everything they would’ve like, still he would’ve married at least Angie.

He fell for Violet deeply she was an Angel but his heart danced and flutter when around Angie.

“And kids? I mean besides Tony and Rei, your nephews and nieces from Peggy’s family.” Pepper repiled with a chuckle, “If you couldn’t have a wife or husband, you could have one. You just need that push but what about a kid?”

“I would enjoy my own kid in my life, even if it’s just for a while.” He replied, “But I won’t make them sacrifice their lives, since the first few years would be great and we’ll have fun…but when they become older and I stay the same, they will have to lie. Not be able to introduce me to everyone as they’re father since the age difference. Or worse, they have to lie saying I’m they’re nephew or son instead, when they get into their late 40s and 50s. It will be a balancing act for them having to lie..”

“Hmm..wow, you come up with everything, don’t you?”

“No because it’s true. It happened. I didn’t ask for Tony, Sharon and Hope to keep up lie that wasn’t theirs to keep, they just did it. Subconsciously. Telling people that I’m an old family friend of some kind, which isn’t all falsely said. But still and I appreciate it. They’re kinda like my nephew and nieces…”

“But if you had to have one, would you? Because I think you would be a great husband and father. I mean, you’re already an uncle.”

“Yeah I would. A daughter. After helping babysit Sharon Carter and Hope Van Dyne, it’s different than a taking care of a boy. You girls look at your daddies, grandpas, godfathers, and uncles way differently than boys do. It’s cute.”

“But I do have a question.”

“Shoot.”

“Why all of this? What brought this last thought of yours?”

“Natasha.” He said softly, “You knew she and the other Avengers have kids, but they let fear and bruised feelings stop them from being great parents. It’s unbelievably understandable where they’re all coming from but still…i don’t know..”

“Jason, you know the reasons why. It’s hard for them…” She replied with a half smile.

“I know, Pepper. I know it is. Even if they had theses kids under odd circumstances, they deserve to get a chance to meet each other. There will be hurt feelings and mistakes made, but that’s part of it. No one knows how to be a parent! It’s something you learn along the way…”

“But it’s not easy as you say it is. You’re not in they’re shoes, even if you were, you would know it’s not gonna be easy.”

“Even if I had to give up my child for their best chance and to help me figure something else to make things better..I know, I’m contradicting myself when I say this but I had my own child out there and I knew where they are. I would make sure I would be their guardian angel and give them so advice, even if i don’t get to the part where I say ‘Hey I’m your dad!’. Make sure they’re okay…it’s hard concept, I know…”

“But you’re not all wrong. Things just take time..and you need to give things time for yourself.”

“Sadly, I have all the time in the world. But I’ll be okay..I’m always okay. Go to bed, Pepper.”

“But..”

“Go to bed. You got a long week coming up.”

“I know..but will you be actually okay?”

“Good night, doll.”

“Good night, Jason.”
