Chapter 1
I ran as fast as I could from the mental hospital, I had bruises on my wrists from the metal restraints and my head hurt from the electric shock treatment. A portal opened behind her and she shrieked as …. Wong stepped out?” “Rhonda?” I passed out and he carried me through to the new york sanctum …. The portal closed behind him.
Rhonda Louise/Clint Barton/Tony Stark
“Okay Beyonce, where is our lover?” Tony asked the sorcerer supreme impatiently
“Please, Dr stark, Agent Barton, Rhonda is still recovering. She was given electric shock therapy and restrained forcefully” Agent Barton clenched Tony’s hand and his tears fell “Our poor girl, they must have thought she was mad in the other dimension”
“Dr Strange had to give her an intimate exam, it’s looking likely that the male mental health nurses took turns with her” Tony went apoplectic “Open the portal to that dimension now. I’m going to blast them to smithereens!”
“Tony Honey look at me” Clint said even though he wanted to kill those sons of bitches himself “Our sweet Rhonda who’s never done anything to anyone” Tony sobbed into clint’s shoulder “I know baby, but she’s here now and we’re gonna protect her”
“What about Steve fucking rogers?” Tony sniffled “He hates it when “his teammates don’t tell him things”
“Fuck steve rogers” Clint said smirking, and Tony grimaced “Ewww no thanks, I’ll stick with you and Rhonda once she gets better”
“Dr Stark Agent Barton, your girl is awake” We went upstairs and almost cried as they took in her small form. “Hey hot stuff” she croaked, smiling weakly.”I’ve missed you guys” I cried then Tony did as we curled ourselves around her, protectively. We stroked her hair, she had hers cut to a bob “How long have I been missing” she asked us when her emotional storm was over “It’s been five years, love” We said together
“Mordo snatched you to get at us, what happened there darling>”
“I was put in a mental hospital, by my support worker” Rhonda sobbed “They all thought I was mad and I was snatched by that creep Mordo to get back at Strange, he's my adoptive brother”
“The electric shock treatment was the worse, and the drugs they gave me were hell on earth!” she let it out “The male nurses took…” she nearly threw up “they took turns with me, I was pregnant with your children, Clint, I lost the babies” my heart broke as an emotional storm brewed within me “Our babies died inside me, my womb and tubes are so badly damaged” Tony stroked her hair and his own tears fell “We can help you baby girl”
“The Extremis” Rhonda asked us and we both nodded “It’s stabilized” Tony confirmed “First let's get you better. We are living at the lakehouse, we will make sure you have the best doctor, Strange can be your doctor, Pep and Morgan have missed you so much love”
Rhonda closed her eyes in relief. She realised with us at her side, all was not lost. “Just promise me we can have a handfasting, my loves” We kissed her forehead together “As soon as you recover, darling”
Rhonda was asleep in our arms again. And we entwined our fingers over her waist. She was skin and bone.We would fix that and show her so much love.
