I Am Ironman (MHA)

Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Prospect of Children (Unedited)



[Third Person's PoV] 

The Avengers Jet slowly began to lower itself down onto the ground in front of a remote house with a large red barn to the side of it. They had rode on a Jet all day that the sun was beginning to rise. 

As they arrived they followed Clinton through a path through the tall grass. Everyone was looking around them with curious glances and when they arrived by the front door Thor asked, "So what is this place?" 

"It's a safe house" Stark said, motioning towards the area around him so Thor could take it in a literal sense. 

Clint casually entered inside the house while everyone just followed him inside, Clint weaved through the place and arrived at the living room as he called out, "Honey! I'm home!" 

Slowly a beautiful woman with brunette hair stepped out from the side and looked towards everyone warily. 

"Sorry… I brought company" Clint said with a faint smile. 

The woman walked up towards Clint and held his cheek before giving him a kiss. 

"Oops," Tony muttered, covering his eyes and peeking through his fingers, which made Melissa scoff in his general direction. 

"This is clearly an agent of some kind…" Stark said, giving Steve a brief look. 

"Gentleman, this is Laura," Clint said, introducing her. 

"I know all of your names…" She said with a smile motioning towards them, she then looked towards Tony and Melissa, "Well except you two…" 

"Tony Stark, That Tony Stark's illegitimate child… He failed to pay child support so I'm following him until he does. It's a pleasure to meet you, you can just call me Tony" Tony said with a faint smile as he motioned towards Stark briefly. 

That earned him a smack on the back of the head by Stark. 

Clint leaned into Laura's ear and briefly explained, "He's actually Tony Stark but from a different universe…" 

Laura looked at Clint briefly and saw him nod his head. 

"Melissa Shield" Melissa said introducing herself as well. 

"Pleasure" Laura nodded towards them both. 

They then heard a small stampede and Clint walked to him as he muttered, "Incoming" In an affectionate manner. 

Two kids, a boy and a girl appeared. The little girl ran towards Clint while saying, "Daddy!"

"Hey sweetheart!" Clint exclaimed as he picked her up, and went and hugged his son, "Hey buddy!" 

Steve looked a bit surprised to see them, Tony was equally as surprised as he said, "Even smaller agents" 

The little girl then asked for Natasha which she went and picked her up giving her a hug as well. 

"Sorry for barging in like this" Steve said with an apologetic nod towards Laura. 

"Yeah sorry, we would have called ahead but we were too busy not knowing you existed" Stark let out a small scoff. 

"Yeah well, Fury helped me set this up when I joined…He kept it out of S.H.I.E.L.D's file, I like to keep it that way. I figured it's a good place to lay low" Clint explained. 

Thor moved around and heard something crack beneath his feet. He slowly lifted it up and saw the toy underneath. Steve looked at him then towards the broken toy then back to him as he began brushing it underneath the couch. 

While Natasha went and talked with Laura and her clearly pregnant belly. 

Clint's little girl walked up towards Thor and just stared up at him, while Thor just stared back down towards her. Visions of what Wanda had some him flashed through his mind before he was startled awake by the toaster going off. 

Sweat was seen glistening over his forehead as he walked out from the room. 

"Thor?" Steve called out towards him and followed him outside. 

"I saw something in that dream. I need answers, I won't find them here" Thor said before giving Steve one brief last look before he began to twirl around his hammer before he took off leaving a small cloud of dust behind. 

Melissa stood outside a room back towards a wall as she listened to Bruce and Natasha seem to be in a deep discussion. She knew she shouldn't be eavesdropping but it was in her woman nature to simply not ignore it.

She lowered her head, biting her lips softly as she heard Natasha mention her inability to have children, making her the effective killing machine. 

She couldn't help but grow sadder and sadder for her as she listened. There was soon quite after a while and Bruce exited the room, he was so deep in thought that he didn't even realize Melissa was there, he was too lost in his own thoughts. 

As Bruce left Melissa took a deep breath and knocked on the door pushing her head inside, where she saw Natasha wiping her tears. 

"What are you doing?" Natasha asked. 

"I'm really sorry" Melissa said apologetically, "I really didn't mean to eavesdrop" 

"So you heard…" Natasha muttered with a heavy sigh, "Forget about it, this topic is too heavy for a child to listen to–" 

"I can help you," Melissa said, going inside the room and closing the door behind her. 

"What?" Natasha asked, raising an eyebrow. 

"Or rather Tony can… You see I have this Uncle, His name is All Might and in my world he was the Number 1 hero…" Melissa then went on to explain All Might's accident where he lost more than half of his organs. 

"How is he still alive?!" Natasha asked in shock as she listened. 

"Well he wasn't the Number 1 hero for nothing. Tony said he kept his body pushing with nothing but his willpower for all those years… But anyways nobody could help him. They were saying he was too far gone, people tried and they were unsuccessful. That was until Tony appeared, he made this cradle the created living tissues based off the DNA of people, with it he was able to 3D print new organs and restore Uncle Might back to his tip top shape." Melissa explained. 

She went and grabbed Natasha's hands, "I'm 100% certain that Tony would be able to help you restore your abilities to have children again. That is only if you want to, of course" 

Natasha sat there with a stunned expression, never in a million years did she believe she would be able to restore her abilities to have children. And yet here was her chance.

She looked down towards Melissa's hand and looked up towards her eyes and she saw nothing more than Melissa's desire to help her. 

She smiled but couldn't help but feel apprehensive, "This… This is a big decision. I have already come to terms with the fact that I wouldn't be able to have children. And now hearing that there's a change I might be able to… I don't know what to think… What to feel…" 

"I'm not rushing you" Melissa said with an encouraging smile, "Take all the time you need, I can only guess how difficult this decision is for you–" 

Mid-Sentence Natasha pulled Melissa into a hug and closed her eyes. Melissa reciprocated it, hugging her tightly. 

"Thank you…" Natasha whispered, appreciating Melissa for at least giving her opportunity. The opportunity to hope that she can be a mother.
