" He's alive " Loki let it slip out when he could see through the Pain that still resides in the very depth of Tony's eyes.
" Wha-... what? Who? "

He was in the control of Thanos right, then how can he feel this, he shouldn't. He was confused that how is he able to surpass the effects of mind control and can feel the raw pain of the father standing in front of him. maybe it has something to do with feeling the same pain when his pup was taken away.
Tony stood still hearing his name from the God. In that microsecond, every memory of Peter passed in front of his eyes like a reel including the last day when he was taken away and then was declared dead. Tears were stinging in his eyes in pain but a little hope was creeping up into the corner

He's alive " Loki let it slip out when he could see through the Pain that still resides in the very depth of Tony's eyes.
" Wha-... what? Who? "
" your son - Peter he is. Right? " Loki wondered when he felt his heartache after he caught the expression on the engineer's face hearing that name. He was in the control of Thanos right then how can he feel this, he shouldn't. He was confused that how is he able to surpass the effects of mind control and can feel the raw pain of the father standing in front of him. maybe it has something to do with feeling the same pain when his pup was taken away.
Tony stood still hearing his name from God. In that microsecond, every memory of Peter passed in front of his eyes like a reel including the last day when he was taken away and then declared dead. Tears were stinging in his eyes in pain but a little hope was creeping up into the corner which slinked back as soon as it appeared showing the blankness in it.
Loki's eyes lingered on Tony's, he knitted his brows confused seeing the glow of his face die down after staying for a second. His thoughts were conflicted, he was sure that he saw the pain in those eyes for his son but now even after having the information about him being alive why isn't he happy as he should be?
"Stark! You listening to me?"
Tony flinched a little being called out but his gaze was still unfocused and lost, dwelling on the past where he first got to know about his child.
~•~
Alicia Parker Stark was one of the finest therapists of that time who was introduced by Nick Fury in his nephew Tony's life to help him cope with his addictions and the still residing grief of his parent's demise. She helped him of course but got stuck with him for a lifetime. The love for the other started early but took quite a long time to admit and to Tony's dismay, She beat him to it.
And now ready with her surprise news she was waiting for Tony to come back from his cocoon that's his lab.
"I'm back Alice, what was that you wanna show me?" Tony strode out of the elevator with a big grin on his face and excitement in his eyes looking like an over-excited toddler who knew that he is going to be presented with something, well you see he was not given up much on presents earlier in his life so you can't blame him for his reaction which looked over the top.
"Here it is, on the table " Alicia replied with the same enthusiasm he was showing.
"What it is lemme see " He jumped on the couch taking the board which was painted in all black and on its backside some wires were connected, as the engineer he is it caught his attention and he started studying it "What were you trying to make Alice?" He asked fiddling with the wires.
Alicia took that from his hands in their own taking a seat beside him "don't start inspecting now just first help me connect this blue wire here" She showed the place putting the blue wire in his hand.
"That I will but first let me see what's the thing with others"
"Nuh-uh, first do as I say" She insisted not letting him do anything. He surrendered and finally connected the wire, something lit up on the black side that got his curiosity he turned to look at it but was stunned reading the words 'I'm pregnant. Alicia was taking in every emotion he was displaying with happiness in her eyes she spoke rubbing over his arm "well I thought this would be the best idea to break it to you and about making this Jarvis assisted me, So congratulations my mechanic you are going to have your own baby"
~•~
Tony whispered ever so slightly as the memory of his wife faded "My baby"
"Yes, your baby Stark. He is alive, I can feel his life form" Loki intervened he was still confused by the way Tony was behaving.
Tony looked up into Loki's eyes he can see his crystal blue eyes were wearing off their color and becoming sparkling green, he was hooked up fascinated in those eyes but his mind was still wandering around his kid.
Loki felt a jolt in his body and he was suddenly snapped out of the mind control Thanos was having on him, he was fully aware of himself but was still confused that how was this even possible, he felt like someone pulled him out from the corner to have a control on his own body, he felt it was some kind of force but what? Loki was so busy inspecting his body that he didn't notice something blue was sparkling on his fingertips Tony who was still lost in his own thoughts and didn't notice when the sparkling blue rays left his hands and broke the mind control of Loki. Well, can't blame Tony truly because he himself didn't know what he possesses so there is no chance he knows how powerful he still is without the suit of armor.
Loki took a little walk toward the window to look at what was happening outside and was devastated to see the damage he has caused, tears stung in his eyes, and he closed them so tight to hold himself from breaking down "I did this" He whispered defeated but swiveled around hearing Tony's voice.
"You didn't want to, did you?"
"What?" Loki asked with confusion clearly evident on his face.
"You didn't want to do all that right" Tony showed out the window where chitauri were still creating havoc. Loki looked out again, a little drop of tear was on the edge to fall out but he holds it back gulping the guilt which was blocking his throat, he slowly shakes his head in no without moving his eyes off the scene unfolding on the battlefield wincing when the civilians were hurt. Tony read his every expression in great detail and the moment he saw the wetness in Loki's eyes he knew something was wrong, so he asked "then why did you do it?"
Loki looked toward Tony but then downed his eyelids soon as if searching for something on the floor, with a slight bit of hesitation he answered "I didn't have any other option"
Tony took his time processing the reply and then fixing his gaze upon Loki he whispered "there were other options too, right "
Keeping up the eye lock Loki said "there were"
Tony didn't ask further he somehow knew what those options could be and he thinks he understands why Loki did what he did and somewhere he doesn't see Loki as a criminal now, why, he doesn't know maybe cause he can see the pain in Loki's eyes or maybe because Loki has given him a little hope that he didn't know he needed. It took him a little while to hush the cruel voices in his mind which were reminding him of the time when he alone was fighting for the existence of his son but failed, It was easy for them back then to prove Peter was just an illusion Tony has had, Peter was never real. Back then Tony felt it was somewhat acceptable to know that his son died then having questioned his overall existence, but today after these many years he has someone to back him up who never questions if Peter was real or not but is telling him that he is alive and If there's the slightest bit of truth in God's words then Tony is sure he would do anything to make sure that he stays.
Tony stared into the battlefield for a while then spoke up approaching Loki who was standing still pondering upon what to do "but now you have an option, a better one I guess, help us defeat them"
Loki stood stunned by the offer he was given, truly he wasn't expecting it he looked over at Tony, narrowing his brows he asked a little bit confused "and why do you think I would do that?"
"Maybe give me a reason to trust you enough to believe whatever you just said over there about something that included my son" Tony shrugged as if it was that easy to think of.
"Well just to let you know, I don't care what you think about me, I don't know why did I even tell you about it but believing in it is your business and it won't change anything for me if you don't believe."
A roar distracted both of them from their conversation, their eyes snapped up towards the portal that was in the sky, and in came three leviathans all together in their destructive glory. Loki staggered back a little, horror was evident on his face. Tony took in a change in Loki's expression simultaneously summoning the suit for himself which latched on him and as the faceplate falls back covering him fully he spoke to Loki before taking off "I would be waiting for you Reindeer games, hope I can trust you"
Tony flew up towards the portal leaving the missiles from the shoulder onto the army along with blasting some with his repulsors simultaneously trying to find the weak point if he could to bring down the leviathans.
Avengers were all occupied in the intense battle which grew a little more ugly as the army kept coming after Thanos realizes that he had lost control over Loki. Steve and Nat were together on the ground while Thor and Hulk were on the top of one of the leviathans trying to take it down whereas Hawkeye was on the rooftop keeping an eye over everyone along with skillfully shooting his arrows successfully blasting them to the ground.
And talking about Iron Man he was flying between the buildings and being chased by a group of Chitauri on his tail.
"Stark! You've quite a number behind you, they can't bank worth you might wanna find a tight corner." Clint rendered the information and moved his eyes off him.
"Copy that" Tony shouted then entered the tunnel and came the chitauri following him, something blue sparkled in Tony's eyes for a second, and a little energy moved out of him blowing the ones behind him completely without any trace. Tony was so engrossed in the battle he didn't notice what happened behind him, he just thought that Clint's theory might have worked and took off to the leviathan trying to move into the city. no one noticed something unusual regarding this new energy source, well JARVIS glitches for a moment before he gets back into the work.
He flew inside one of the worms and came out successfully blasting its insides but lost balance and fell head first on the ground hitting a taxi and the chitauri took it as a chance to gang up on him, he tried to stand up and dodge or blast them but they were quite in number, his eyes again sparkled blue but soon settled down as the chitauri were already killed by a green mist covering them. Tony stood properly looking around him and found Loki standing there green mist was still dancing on his fingertips.
"I knew you would come"
Even though Tony himself had invited him for help but still hearing the conviction in Tony's voice and the way he believed Loki would come surprised him. "Why were you counting on me, I'm not the one be expected something from"
"Don't know just felt like" He shrugged dismissing the conversation and continuing fighting.
"Chitauri are the worst kind of army that you can think of, they would keep coming until you destroy the mothership" Loki told the information he had while sending his magic through the army ripping them apart.
"And how do we do that?"
"That's the problem, no one has yet been able to defeat them"
Tony pauses for a while to look at Loki after what he heard, Loki too turned to him, and both were still for a while then Tony spoke "alright, then let us be first" he turned back his attention to fighting while Loki took a while to process that how easily Tony included him in as if he wasn't the one half an hour ago who wanted to rule the world, his lips quirked up a little bit before he gets himself engrossed in the battle.
" Stark, you hear me? You have a missile headed straight for the city." Fury's voice rang through the comms making Tony pause, Loki kept his gaze on Tony through the corner of his eyes.
"How long?"
"Maximum 3 minutes"
"Alright, I have got it" He replied smirking at Loki who raised his right brow asking 'what' Tony gave a smug look saying happily "Oh, we are definitely going to be the first"
Loki's eyes widened in surprise he stopped for a while and asked "How?"
"There is this missile coming over here if not taken care it will wipe out the whole city and..."
Loki's eyes widened in fear and shock he shrieks cutting Tony off "What about you? That might kill you Stark"
"Chances are there but it will better be one than the whole city" Loki looked mortified knowing Tony is ready to sacrifice himself and he is not willing to let him do it before he could say anything Tony asks "whatever you said back then in the tower about Peter was it true" Loki squinted his eyes trying to understand where this conversation going, "well then It is enough for me to do this" Tony stated looking around and then up to the wormhole.
Thinking a little bit Loki volunteered "Let me go then"
"Can you fly it all up there?"
Loki shakes his head but speaks "No? But if I get a hold of it I have enough energy to teleport right on the mothership"
"That's cool you can teleport but what about the return, do you have enough in you to come back" Loki chooses to be silent, he knew he couldn't, or maybe he didn't want to, Tony knew the meaning of his silence he squeezed on his shoulder giving the final call "then the discussion ends here, cause the distraction for me" he said looking at the number of chitauri trying to surround them.
Before he could go Loki held his wrist and whispered earnestly "I don't want you to die"
Tony stays silent for a while then says "I would have been dead 12 years ago if not for Nick who gave me the goal to live after Peter... And now I would be damned if I didn't protect the place when he is alive here... put everything into thrusters J" he took his hands off Loki and flew towards the missile. Loki kept looking into the way he took off and when he disappeared from his sight he turned and fought with all the energy he had.
Everyone stood silent looking up at Tony who entered the wormhole with a nuke on his back, on the helicarrier everyone's eyes were glued to the screen whereas in the Queens on the roof of his apartment stood Peter looking into the sky which has a vague and blurry view from that far. His eyes stung with unshed tears, he knew hated Tony but he never wanted him to die for sure, Peter crossed his fingers his eyes twinkled with the same blue as Tony's before something happens he closed his eyes and whispered "don't die, please"
As JARVIS was shutting down the same blue sparkled in Tony's eyes which stayed this time and his body was slowly getting covered in blue sparkle before he started to fall back viewing the destruction of the mothership.
Chapter 3: Unconscious and captured
Summary:
Peter wants to grieve his father but one question from Ben and he didn't even want to celebrate his survival. On the other hand, Tony is captured by Shield because he called Loki 'innocent' just after waking up from his near-death experience which made them believe he is being mindcontrolled.
Notes:
There is a little action of the magic that Tony and Peter possess, as they don't know about it yet and haven't given it a name so I'm calling the magic 'It' for now.
(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)
Chapter Text
The suit was falling back on its own, and inside lights of armor flickered at a fast pace as Jarvis was shutting down even though he was trying hard not to but soon gave up, and the arc reactor stopped glowing. Darkness filled inside and Tony realized the suit is off and the lack of oxygen made him dizzy, he could barely keep his eyes open which was one more proof that he is not making it back this time but he is ok with it because his son is down there alive and safe dare he say as he looked up one last time to the destruction he has caused. Soon his body too gave up and his eyelids dropped furthermore before he could submit to his fate he felt something tingling sensation all over his body, he felt as if all the cells of his body is shifting to give way to something to pass the same way he felt when those men were holding his head underwater far too long than they should if they didn't want him dead. Even though he was dying his brain was still working and coming to the conclusion that maybe that's how people feel when they die due to a lack of oxygen. He chuckled at his fate and tried to fight against it one last time with a tiny bit of hope that maybe he could make it back somewhat alive into the Earth's atmosphere but couldn't keep it longer and stopped trying, giving in.
As soon as his eyes closed fully the soft blue mist mixed with little white glitters arose from within his body and covered him whole. The blue brightens with such a strong intensity it'd make people believe the suit is still powering because of the blue reflection that was showing from the eyes and chest piece of it. After a minute before Tony drops from the portal and enters the Earth's atmosphere, he sucked in a small breath, his heart started pumping slowly.
Steve was standing with his head down grieving a good man whom he had to order to leave on the other side because didn't have any other option but he had expected him to fall back because that's what he does. He had read the report given to him which clearly states that 'Tony Stark doesn't do death' he comes back stronger every time so he just wished this time isn't the exception.
Natasha was still perched on the terrace with the scepter in her hand her eyes were facing the portal in the sky wishing for her friend to fall back. She didn't know if whatever they had in between them can be called a friendship or not but she knew definitely that he has a place in her life for sure and she wanted it to stay occupied by this man as long as she can think of.
Clint hadn't met the billionaire before nor did he ever talk to him even on the phone this was the first time that he met and that too when he was mind controlled even after that his mind was still not his own so he didn't know if he should draw a character sketch of the billionaire based on what he had seen him doing to save the city at any cost or what he had already read in the report written by Natasha, he didn't know, but he know one thing for sure that he didn't want Tony dead.
Thor was somewhat neutral to all this, he couldn't understand what is he feeling anymore everything that happened was taking a toll on him. First off his brother is alive but is on a rampage to conquer Midgard along with the chitauri soldiers, it's a known fact all over the realms out there that who leads them and that's what was making Thor more conflicted because he isn't sure if Loki is lost too much to seek the help of The Mad Titan for revenge for everything that transpired before his fall. The madness which was shown by Loki in starting of all this was opposite to what his brother believed in but he is not sure about that also cause he had seen him destroying the whole realm before too. What conflicted him more was Loki's change of heart and joining their side because he had seen the green mist destroying the chitauri, why the change now what had actually happened he doesn't know he just hoped that he could have his brother back if there is any possibility of it happening, and then battle which he was not prepared for, to be honest, but he did everything that he could to save humans from the onslaught and now his own companion man of iron is lost on the other side and he is not sure if he is coming back or not, not did he knew if he could do anything more to bring everything to balance as it was before.
On the helicarrier, Nick Fury bowed his head in grief at sending his own godson to his death. When he announced the nuke he knew the best bet to recover it was Tony but at that moment he forgot the cost might be so big. He closed his eyes not wanting to see it happening cause that is going to keep him alive from every night that he has left, he already had done wrong to him before too, he just didn't know if he would be able to live in peace ever when he had wronged both the little one and now the senior one.
Peter was still standing where he was, he couldn't go back without knowing he was safe. His brain was asking him to leave, it didn't matter anymore but his heart was making him stay if especially not for him but for the outcome of the fight. Peter felt a full body shudder when he heard him not coming back. He closed his eyes so tight to stop his tears because he didn't want to cry for him, not for him.
He was in emotional distress which caused the blue sparkles to emerge on the surface of his skin like a thin sheath barely noticeable but it was there. He took a few deep breaths to calm down his nerves and finally opened his red eyes which were filled with tears. The blue surrounding his body moved back inside quickly as if it has a mind of its own and didn't want to be seen. Only a few seconds would have passed when it came back again with the full force shining brightly against Peter's body pulling him in the direction where the fight was happening. Peter felt the sudden pull that made him fall to his knees.
"Peter!"
Peter turned around sitting on his haunches and looked who came while dusting his knees, he slowly mumbles "Aunt May?"
May and Ben were watching the news of the battle in trepidation not knowing what their future holds. They had seen Peter running towards the terrace after hearing that Iron Man is seen flying with a nuke on his back toward the wormhole, they gave each other a look and then let it slide. A few minutes might have passed when they noticed the first flicker in the bulbs which alarmed them. They had a nonverbal conversation and May decided to check on Peter when suddenly a few of them blasted that made them run to the terrace while going they heard people freaking out about how all of sudden the bulbs/tube lights/lamps were blasting, these weren't the first time so they knew it would die down. As they reached their doubts were confirmed when they saw Peter glowing in blue without wasting a second she shouted his name to make it disappear cause she knows very well how it works. There were only two causes of what might have happened for it to glow this bright -
1. Peter might have been in extreme distress which pushed it out in full force. or,
2. It must have felt the existence of its other part from which it was born and being an inhabitant of Tony.
And she was dreading for it to be the latter. Ben rushed forward helping Peter to stand up, fussing over him to see if he got any scratches or not whereas May stood silently glaring toward the wormhole and viciously wished that he shouldn't come back.
"Uncle Ben I'm ok, don't worry, nothing happened." He assures him trying to look into his eyes to prove the point but he couldn't, he keeps looking back to the portal again and again.
Ben cupped Peter's cheeks with both his hands, wiping the tears with his thumbs he spoke softly "It's ok champ, you have nothing to worry about we are here with you, he wasn't with you anyway so-"
"but I don't want him dead " Peter whispered emphasizing the word while cutting him off and looking back at the now closing portal, his heartbeat quickens thinking the worst.
"sweetie, hey, it's ok, you have us, it's ok let him go. There is nothing you could do, it's alright everything is gonna be fine, ok, everything will be fine as far as we are together, yeah. Now come down " She wraps her hand firmly on his shoulders from the right side pecking him lightly on his curls and pushing him slightly towards the doors trying to distract him away from that wormhole.
"But-" Peter protested looking back again, his breath hitched watching a clear sky without the sign of the portal ever being open, fresh tears rolled down his cheeks for his father.
"Peter, I understand that you are upset and we won't stop you if you want to grieve him but to be honest do you really think he deserves any of your feelings after whatever he has done with you?" Ben throws the question at him giving him a sympathetic look which always works on him till now and he wishes it would do today too he was not wrong when he saw Peter's face hardening, his glances turning cold as he wiped the tears from his cheeks furiously.
They took Peter inside coaxing him all the way, filling his mind with any kind of negativities they could about Tony. When they heard that he made back they grimaced in silence but were satisfied seeing the neutral expression on Peter's face. May offered him a glass of water to cool down and he emptied the whole glass in one go while side-eyeing the Tv which was still running and showing Iron Man falling from the sky without stopping. He kept his eyes stuck on the screen which slowly turns blurry "Wha-" his question didn't come out fully and he was already bending down on his knees then falling on the floor with a thump, unconscious.
The portal was getting small and small but Tony was still far away from it, the mist that was surrounding his body retracted from it and seeped out of the suit in between slits now covering the whole suit in blue, it pulled the suit back the upside as if trying to regain the momentum and then pushed towards the closing hole making a sight like a blue comet. After entering Earth's atmosphere it took its previous position inside the suit, healing him. Coming halfway down it suddenly stopped for a moment as if waiting for something but then it moved not down but toward Queens because it felt him. Everyone who was not expecting Tony to make it back was so relieved seeing him fall back that they didn't notice the suit has changed its trajectory on its own, none noticed except Loki.
It was the first time after so long Loki felt a little bit of happiness or pride he didn't know how to describe what exactly he was feeling when Tony asked him to cause the 'distraction' and isn't that what he was perfect with? All his life he was put down for this but today someone asked him to do just that with such a conviction that tells they know what they were asking and is sure about him doing it the right way even though he was the one who caused all this. It was after so long someone has believed in him and he isn't going to let him down for sure so he did what he was asked, he distracted every fleet that was trailing behind Tony towards him and fought with everything he was left with. When Chitauri went down on its own he sighed in relief and then started laughing looking at all the dead soldiers, they were the ones who tortured him for two years and now they are dead by a mere mortal, his eyes shot up instinctively searching for Tony but he couldn't, that made his face blank, his hands falling to his side palms drawn into fists he waited, patiently. With every passing second his right fist started punching into the thighs next to it, first, it was slow but increased in speed parallel to the portal closing down, his breath quickened when only a minuscule hole was left praying to the Norns for the only person who treated him well and gave him a sort of freedom, from Thanos' clutches at least. His eyes never left the sky, and his lips twitched forming a tiny smile when he noticed a small dot that was forming into a red and gold man-like being as it comes closer but soon the smile wiped off when he noticed it isn't stopping. What made his eyes wide was when he saw the armor tilting to its right without changing its posture from being flat, it's not possible to happen if the armor worked properly but he knew it isn't so the only conclusion is that it might be falling apart, horror rushed through his body considering it breaking down in middle flight his hands moved forward in an instant, and his seiðr latched onto the armor abruptly halting it then slowing down the fall.
It recognized some hostile force had just latched onto the armor, and as its priority is to save its keeper it seeped through the slits again to attack whatever it was. It was prepared to attack with that hostile seiðr but didn't when he realized who it was exactly, it hurriedly came forward from inside the suit mixing itself with the green mist. The suit was now covered with the blue and green glittery mist which was turning slightly turquoise, calling for its creator.
Loki gasps in amusement when he felt familiar magic trying to connect with him, he was so stunned to think straight, because how is it possible for a magic user to be here on the Midgard of all places but also if they were here then why didn't he sensed them before during the battle, why now, moreover someone of his known cause that magic is too familiar to his own. He felt them blending so smoothly with his seiðr as if they belong with him. He shot a new spell around that battlefield trying to search for who is seeking him out through his seiðr but as the spell completed he lost the connection. He tried again and again but couldn't. He was so busy searching that he momentarily forgot about slowing down Tony's fall which he noticed when Hulk roared after putting the armor down.
Everyone surrounded the armor, Steve sat down removing the face plate and closing his eyes momentarily looking at the still form of Tony, he bends down putting his ear on the chest plate to try catching his heartbeat if there is any he was relieved when he heard a little thumping, he pulled himself back nodding to the team and all of them released the breath they were holding. Hulk roared again maybe in contentment that his friend is alive or maybe because he just want to, no one knows but that helped bring Tony back to consciousness.
Tony woke up with a jolt coughing as he tried to take in as much air as he could cause the last time when he was awake he was lacking it. Taking a few deep breaths in when he was confirmed that he was awake and not dying of lack of oxygen he asked the only thing which came to his mind "Please tell me no one kissed me"
A ripple of laughter ran around among them even Loki chuckles at it without being able to stop himself.
That question proved to everyone that he is truly back, Steve took a look around and then whispered "We won"
“right, yay! Hurray. Good job, guys. Let's just not come in tomorrow. Let's just take a day. Have you ever tried shawarma? There's a shawarma joint about two blocks from here. I don't know what it is, but I want to try it” Tony rattled clapping his one hand on the floor and celebrating their victory planning to fill his stomach full before he couldn't cause now when he is alive he knew he won't be able to live in peace until he finds his son.
“We’re not done yet.”
Everyone swivel their head to the voice and found Nick Fury standing there with a neutral expression. They turned around to see Shield agents scrambling all over the place doing anything they could to collect and clean the mess that was left.
Fury leveled his eye at the team now standing in a group Clint was supporting Tony with his metal-encased hand wrapped around his shoulder. He kept up a blank face and smoothly ordered "All of you, coming to debrief, now"
"No" Tony shot out immediately, Fury glared at him which he ignored, and spoke "Shawarma first" nodding his head as if he was stating the fact.
"Stark" Fury called out gritting his teeth and giving his stern stop-whatever-you-are-going-to-do glare to Tony which used to subdue him when he was in the middle of a prank but he isn't sure if it works the same with the adult Tony.
"Yup" Tony replied popping the 'p' and then continued "That's me, Thank you very much for remembering it but I'm not going to any meeting without having my food, cause I'm tired and hungry, is it only me who is hungry or anyone else too," he asked looking around Steve was standing stupefied not knowing how to react on whatever was going on, Thor nodded openly while Natasha just raised her brow seeing the interaction whereas Clint nodded but denied quickly when Fury glared at him.
Fury sighed cause he knew how stubborn Tony can be so he gave in "ok fine but the first thing we are going to do is board the quinjet" Tony opened his mouth to protest but he didn't let him speak "And go to the helicarrier where we will debrief until agents will bring your shawarma and you are going to have a check-up with our doctor, happy now"
"No, nu-uh, not happy. No doctors, No check-ups nope nothing" he retorted shaking his head furiously "you can't convince me on this one and you know that very well eye patch."
Fury sighed again with an eye roll cause he knew Tony would throw a tantrum if he pushed him a little more so like always he found a middle ground "So, will it be ok if Dr. Banner checks you cause I'm not letting you go without it when you just came back from your death, you moron."
Tony opened his mouth and then closed it he did it several times trying to throw a comeback but couldn't after he saw the look in Fury's eyes he knew that look very well so he agreed "If that's fine with him" he replied quietly turning to look at Bruce who has turned back from being Hulk and he didn't know when that happened recently or for few minutes cause now He is standing in the middle of the wasted road, naked.
Bruce's eyes widened when he heard his name and he was gaping like a fish when every eye turned to him. He cowered in himself trying to protect his left out dignity as much as he could and being the shy person that he is he couldn't meet up anyone's eyes but could feel them watching him like a Hawk, thank Jesus when one of the agents handed him some clothes. With as much speed as he could, he wore them and answered back with uncertainty "Uh-um, I'm not, not that kind of doctor?"
Tony and Clint chuckled knowing how uncomfortable he was feeling being under the scrutiny of everyone that too when naked. Steve was trying to be neutral but there was a red tint on his face which wasn't doing any good for him, his face was like he just wants to leave that place and didn't want to see it ever again while Natasha just smirked good-naturedly and Thor was not so amused cause it's normal for him. But Fury still had his stern face, he turned around his coat gliding behind him without waiting for others he moved his last order over his shoulder "It's final Banner is checking you up, now walk up"
Tony rolled his eyes at it and looked at Steve who started walking immediately as if he was waiting for it, Tony craned his make to see if his face was still red, and yup, it was, he chuckled which turned into a little laugh when he saw Bruce was actually pouting for being denied.
"Don't move shell head, you are already breaking my shoulder with that don't know how many pounds of metal" Clint whined pushing him a little which didn't have any effect that irritated him more "Can't you just remove it and come with us like a normal human"
"No can do birdbrain, cause I don't want Shield's dirty hand on it" He replied raising his voice at the last part so Nick can hear and he did.
Nick turned back glaring at Tony who was sporting a devious smirk just to rile him up "It'll be given back to you as it is so don't be a nuisance and just do it already"
"As you say, Mr. Nicholas" He said cheekily and even winked at him for emphasis. Fury showed him the angriest face that he could come up with but the twitch in the eye told him another story that he remembers so well.
"Oh, I like you" Clint told in between his laugh, he couldn't stop himself when Tony called him by his name. Tony grinned back then hi-fied with him after coming out of the suit. Clint then again supported him on his shoulders still giggling and he knew that he and the billionaire might go along well.
A few agents came to take the suit and one of them pulled the hand harshly in a hurry which jerked the whole suit and it was about fall down but they saved it. And when they were able to stabilize it they heard Tony whining behind them "Hey, be gentle, I want it in one piece not more broken than it already is do you even know how hard and time taking it is to build the pinky finger itself"
"Stark" Fury bellowed again which made everyone move toward the jet no questions asked.
That was the moment when Tony finally remembered Loki, his eyes shot up in every direction finding the certain God who had helped him not only in the field but also given new hope in his life. He scanned the whole area and found a few agents who were manhandling Loki, his hands in the magic-dampening cuffs that Thor brought with him shackles were put around his ankles and neck keeping him at several gunpoints they pushed him forward by the rifle's end that might have dug into his back hurting him if that's what the flinch he saw meant. That made him angry cause no one asked or noticed why the God was helping them in the end if he was supposed to kill them, they just decided that they were right all along and there might not be any other story behind it. He moved to them pulling himself away from Clint shouting "Hey, leave him. Stay away, he is innocent"
As soon as the word left his mouth he heard guns clicking and turned around to see every other agent along with Natasha pointing their gun at him. Unknowingly he dragged his hands up opening his mouth to argue but before that, he felt a prick in his neck and he instantly he felt dizzy, tranquilizer, he deduced falling to unconsciousness.
When he woke up he found himself in a cell trapped and chained to a chair that wasn't giving him any way to move, he checked the cuffs around his hands and shackles in the ankles if they are removable and soon he got the answer when burning pain shot up around the area when the metals scrap around his skin. He searched for something and anything that he could use but there was nothing but plain walls and he knew, it might be Nick's decision to put him here cause he knew him so well. He knew that too, everyone would be watching him through the big screen as if he was a clown to entertain them so he just glared at the camera showing all the anger he felt for their action not only against him but Loki too.
It's been two hours since Tony was awake, at first, he tried to free himself but when he knew it isn't working he set to glaring at the camera constantly without saying anything but finally he couldn't stay silent anymore and yelled "I'm. Not. Being. Mindcontrolled. You fuckers. Let me out. This is not how you should treat the person who saved your ass and the whole damn city. I have reason to say what I did and trust me, Nick. You. Will. Regret. If I am not removed from here within the next fifteen minutes"
Notes:
Yup, Parkers are negative in this fic so sorry to those who love them, even I love them but for this fic it's necessary.
And a big Sorry for being so late, too many responsibilities not being able to set up a schedule, so I might just drop a chapter randomly whenever I find time, just wish for you to wait❤️

Hello, my dear readers.........
Last couple of months were like a deep diving for me filled with too many terrifying things.
Be assured, I am still alive and thinking of coming back to continue writing.
But there's is something that you might not like.
This story is going to be on Hiatus, because I forgot the plot totally 💀. I don't know how to proceed further so now I have to turn this story into something new so it will take time for me until then I will be posting the one-shots or I might start a new story by next month.
Or you can suggests something for this story, for how you want it to proceed because right now I am completely blank. I remember few snippets but that comes at the climax... So you are free to suggest.
Thank you for your patience with me and for waiting.
I am good and healthy now and I hope so are you.
Be happy and safe and healthy (physical and mental both) ❤️❤️

How bad do you think it is when you know that you should go to a therapist???
Honestly, I don't know what is happening anymore I just know that I can't do without any help. So yeah I am taking my leave from here for a while until I am sure that I am good enough to go about my day.
Sorry for leaving everything incomplete!!
IF ANYONE WANTS TO CONTINUE ANY OF THESE STORIES THEY ARE ALLOWED TO DO SO...
I might never come back or might I don't know anything at the moment. But also I will not be deleting this account or any stories in the hope that one day I may come back.
Let's hope for the best.
Thank you to all of you who had been there to welcome me into this place with open arms and I am sorry that I am leaving lots of you people disappointed.
