Chapter 13:

"So explain to me how you got him calling you Mama?" Pepper chuckled, sitting down with Steve and Bruce for some late night tea.

"Literally the only thing that would get him to stop crying was to have his mommy. So I improvised," Steve shrugged. "And how did you get Tasha out of her flashback and to sleep?"

Bruce frowned deeply. "We ended up having to give her a sedative in a cup of warm milk," He sighed. "I'm interested to see what Reed comes up with tomorrow. It doesn't look like whatever happened to her is-"

"MOMMY!" Tony screamed across the tower.

"I'll take this one. You two get some rest, okay? We're bound to have another day from hell tomorrow," She murmured. "Thanks again for your help Steve."

"No trouble ma'am," He smiled, taking their mugs to the sink.

As Pepper expertly made her way down the hall, she realized Steve hadn't put him in the nursery. Shit. That had to mean... Yep. Little sneak.

A sobbing, shivering, Tony lay in his soaked oversized king bed. In all fairness, Pepper probably should have warned Steve that Tony was a sneak when he was cranky. She gently moved to console the sobbing man. 

"Shhh, Mommy's here," she cooed, sitting on the dry edge of the bed. When they had first started whatever this was, they were very quick to set up a list of boundaries. Nightmares required no touching him until he was ready. The only exception was if someone was in danger (including himself, Pepper had added later).

"Mommy I had a bad dream!" Tony sobbed, wrapping his arms around her neck. "The water!"

"Shh, I know honey, I know," She cooed, running her fingers through her baby boy's hair."But you're here with me. You're safe baby boy. I promise."

Tony slowly settled down, sucking his thumb as he shifted in his wet pajamas. "Mommy I'm wet," He said sadly.

"I know honey. Come on, let's get you cleaned up, hmm?" Pepper cooed.

MEANWHILE, ACROSS TOWN.....

"I'm serious Johnny, I think she might be the one," Ben, or more commonly called, Thing, explained to Johnny Storm. "I think I'm gonna pop the question."

"Ben, you sure? I mean yeah, my sister and Reed are expecting, but..." Johnny stopped short. "You hear that?" He whispered.

Ben listened closely when something hopped down from the fire escape. "Johnny Storm," it hissed. Thing punched the thing- a robot?- while another minion grabbed Johnny. He burst into flames, but not before it managed to empty a syringe of light blue liquid into him.

"Johnny!" Ben called, seeing the man stop flaming. Johnny looked up at thing, before he burst into tears. "MONSTER!" He sobbed. Ben was taken aback. "WANT SISSY!" 

"Um... I'm a friendly monster," Ben tried. "And I know your sister."

"Monster know sissy?" He sniffled. 

"Yup. Come on, I'll take you to her," He said. Johnny raised his arms up. Ben blinked before he sighed and scooped Johnny up. "Ya know, I heard this happened to one of the Avengers today," He mumbled. "Sure hope Reed knows what's gotten in to you..."

THE NEXT MORNING AT AVENGERS TOWER.....

Natasha woke with a small little yawn. She was still stuck in a little mindset, but... something was very different. Clint was the first to come check on her, and he dropped the sippy cup of milk when he saw the toddler sitting on the bed, staring at him. "Daddy!" she squealed.

"BRUUUUCE!" Clint screamed.
