Darling

Tony’s POV

I can feel there pain, and how scared they are. I know they are shaking out of fear. I leave the suit and walk towards them. Soon I feel the desperation from the one closer to me flow through me. I sat on the floor not pushing any further than I have to. I can feel James is uncomfortable and on alert for any movement they make.

“Hey” I whispered to the children. The one closer moved to look at me I smiled softly.

“My name is Tony. Can I have you names?” I whispered trying to not scare them off. I didn’t kneed James lashing out because two scared children lash out.

“I don’t think this is a good idea” Bucky whispered behind me. I’m actually happy that he is staying where he is. The children are so scared that I’m sure that they remind him of how he was. The children squished closer together turning so they couldn’t see us.

“Go look for anything we can salvage” I asked looking at Bucky. That made the fear spike from the two children.

“Hey, it’s going to be okay. We are going to make sure no one hurts you again” I whisper moving slowly to look at them. That got two pairs of eyes to look at me.

“So would it make things better if I talked about who I am?” I whispered and waited for a moment. I didn’t want to make them any more scared then they already are. After glancing at the one hiding the one closest to me nodded.

“I have two boys at home that love science. They built a video game last week that has a small player that moves around the screen to different areas of the world” I said just a notch above whispering. Bucky stayed back and seemed to move slowly around the base.

“They love making things for people that have a hard time. Last month they built a new system for the homeless to get the things they need to be hired and get a home” I said at the same level. The two started to unfold a bit, just to where I could see both the pairs of eyes. One of the pairs was blue and the other pair was green.

“Do you two like science?” I asked which I suppose I shouldn’t have. They jumped and curled back up. After a few moments I got a nod.

“Science is great, it helps a lot of people and can save the world” I said softer. I could feel that they were getting more comfortable with me so I moved an inch closer.

“Here's the thing I don’t really like this place. It’s scary and dark I wanna go somewhere better. Do you want to come with me?” I asked. This was the question that was going to take a while. They looked at each other and then back at me. Then I felt it a genital poking at my mind. It made sense now why they weren't talking at all. I let them in but of course blocked anything that could scare them. The one the was being hidden moved first to get closer to me. The other one was more hesitant.

“So you can read minds?” I asked putting out my hands palms up towards them. The one closer nodded.

“I'll let you in on a secret" I looked over to Bucky hopping he would understand what I wanted him to do. Bucky put his hands over his ears and looked everywhere that wasn't at us. I know that he would still be listening because that was safest to do "I can feel people’s emotions as my own” I said smiling. The mind reader put there hand on top of mine. After a few moments the other one came and did the same.

“I’m going to pick you up and we’re going to get out of here, we are going to take my friend with us, because its too scary here” I said standing and getting into the suit. After I was in I picked them both up. Looking to Bucky I found that he had found a couple of things. I had Friday hack their system and download everything that she could. That being said she didn’t get much from the base. They worked with mostly paper.

“Boss I requested both Vision and Ms. Dyne to assise gathering the documents” Friday said on speaker so that bucky could hear. They walked to the entrance where Vision and Hope where waiting at the entrance.

“Get them out of here we have the rest covered” Hope said smiling at the two children. I could see the two berow closer to me.

“Thank you” I said taking off a bit.

“Look we’re flying” I said and watched as the two looked around. What normally would take 10-15 minutes to fly home took 20. They were squirming all over trying to look at everything. Luckily either of them wanted to move to far from me. It was sad that they where already so attached to me.
