It was Peppers birthday and Tony tried his best to make breakfast. Yesterday he was on an award show in Las Vegas and this morning he should originally fly to Afghanistan.
But he talked to Rhodey, that there can have at least have breakfast together.
At seven am everyone except of Pepper where downstairs and waiting for her. Tony had chang her alarm so that she would sleep longer.
"Oh god, Tony", there hear Pepper from upstairs.
"Yes? I sleep to long. Why didn't you wake me?"
She was walking the stairs downstairs and stopped as she saw everyone sitting at the dining table.
"What is this?"
"Its breakfast. It's your birthday, so we did something for you. And Amy and I leaving in an hour for some day's. So we celebrate now", Tony smiles and went over to her to kiss her. "I love you."
"I love you too."
Everyone wish her a happy birthday and hug her. After there where finished start Pepper and Peggy making plans for the day and the kids get up to get there bags.
Tony and Amy huge everyone and grap there stuff. There must do a presentation and will be back in three days. Peter and the twins doesn't like it, but sometimes it must happen.
-
Amy and Tony where sitting in a military van after the presentation.
Tony was talking about some cover girls on a magazine that she has fake date. She was busy not to laugh and stay in her part as assistant.
Before she realized it there was a explosion and gun shots.
Her dad take her to went outside and try to hide. A bomb was lending next to the with the SI logo on it. Tony try to shield her as the bomb explores. Amy was flying back and fall with her back on a huge stone. She can't breathe anymore and start feeling a huge hurt in her back. She tried to get up, but it doesn't want to work. Before she realized it everything was getting dark.
-
Tony was in pain. He was in a cage and his heart was connected with a car batterie. What happened? And than he remembers.
"A woman. With me was a woman. Is she here?"
The man who was with him in the cage nod and point on a nother bed in a corner. She had her eyes closed and had a lot bandages around her.
Tony went up, but need help by the man to get over to her.
"Is she okay?", he ask, as the take her hand.
"She...mmh she has a back injuty. I don't know if she can still walk. We need to wait till she woke up."
Before there could take about something else other man get in.
-
After Tony get back into the room he first went to Amy. She was still sleeping.
"Are you sure her head is okay. Shouldn't she be awake yet?"
"She has a huge trauma. She will work up when its time."
Tony went to his bed and take the blanket to put it over her.
"Is she a friend of you?"
"No. She's my daughter."
The man looked shocked.
"I didn't know you have a child."
"Two. I have two children. Amy is 22 and Peter is 8."
"Wow."
Tony laught light and turn around to look at the man.
"And if you believe it or not, I also have to granddaughters."
"Really?"
"Not many know about them or that I'm married. I always tried to protect them. And now. Now I killed her. Even if i would build the weapon there kill us and if not then that I die the other way."
"Dad?", Amy ask weak next to him. She looked confused and start to panic.
"I'm here baby. I'm here."
"Okay", she said and drifted back to sleep.
He looks at her and starts thinking. He needs to safe her. He can't let her die here. Not his little girl.
"I need to get her out of here. That's my job. Even if I have just a week."
"Than this is the most important week of your life."
Tony smiles weak at Amy and went up. He need to work this out. He need a to find a way.
-
Pepper was with Peggy and the kids in the living room. Pepper was working on some papers, Peter was making homework and Peggy was drewing with the twins.
Amy and Tony where gone for over two day's now. Pepper hadn't heard anything from them, but that was normal for them. Tony and Amy have this special father-daughter bond. In the last time there couldn't spent much time alone toghter so Pepper doesn't tought it was not normal.
This change as Jarvis informed her that Rhodey was at the front door.
"Let him in", she said. Rhodey should be with Amy and Tony. She knew now that something was wrong.
As he work in she could see the prof in his eyes.
"What....what happens?"
"I'm so sorry. There..there was an...an attack on the convoy and...and Tony and Amy went missing. We...we think...that there in the hands of terrorist. I'm so sorry", Rhodey looks like he would cry every second so Pepper stud up and hugs him.
"This is not your falled."
"We're searching for them. I i swear I gonna find them."
The kids didn't know what to do. Peter went over to hug Emma and Haley was in Peggys armes. All where crying.
Pepper let go of Rhodey and turn around to look at the kids.
"What should we do now?", ask Pepper.
"We are going through this. Like we always did", said Peggy. She need to be strong now. But she didn't know if she can do this if she loses Tony and Amy than she can't life anymore.
-
Pepper needs much longer to take the kids in bed than normally. But after two hours there fall asleep.
She went into the living room and found Peggy sitting on the couch.
"Peggy? I thought you where in bed."
"No. I just wanna sit here and...and think. I can't lose him."
Pepper sit down next to her and put a arme around her.
"I still remember this cute little baby as he was first put into my armes. He was this perfect baby and he looked from the beginning like Howard", she laughed softly. It feels like it was yesterday.
"You will get him back. We get both of them back.
-
Amy was waking up for the first time completely.
"Dad?"
"Yes. I'm here." He went over to her. She tried to sit up, but it wasn't working. Tony helped her and she starts to look around.
"So this really happened?", she ask and start crying.
"I will get us out of hier. I have a plan and this will work. Abs we get home tonthe family and everything will be like ir was before." He toke her into his armes and hold her as she cried.
After some minutes he let go of her.
As she tried to stand up she stopped and looked shocked.
"Dad?"
"Yes?"
"I can't move my legs. I can't even feel them."
Tony looked shocked at him. Oh no.
