Artemis's Pov
The strange day slowly came to a big halt when the end of the day finally rolled around. I was most likely gonna spend my night painting cause I hadn't done it in such a long time.
I was always running around during the days now I had walked Peter home before we both said goodbye to one another.
And as well as always reassuring people that I was okay. Who knew that having soul mates would be so exhausting on my body.
I shoved the key into the keyhole of the apartment, my mind mentally wasn't here at the moment.
The grip of my backpack was rough and hard as I pushed open the door shutting the door behind me, tossing my phone on the coffee table.
"Mom! I'm home." I shouted sleepily like, I didn't hear an answer which told me she was at work still and wouldn't be back later, I set my backpack down on the floor, my back turned towards the hallway. This feeling in my guy that I couldn't quite put my finger on, but as quickly as the wind picked up behind me. I heard someone moved behind me. I remember all the small training Steve and Bucky put me through when I was bored.
I let a loud scream out quickly shooting my elbow into the foreign body that was holding me up. I heard a loud grunt as whoever held me quickly slammed back into the wall knocking my head into the wall making me get dizzy for just a spilt second, but I was quick to keep putting up a fight.
"Let me go!" I yelled out flaring my legs back, I was still hitting, biting and scratching the much more muscular body that held the death grip on me.

I kept attacking the person hearing loud grunts of pain before my head was bashed into the wall again, but this very time the small impact that crashed against my skull. I fell limp into the arms pain cruising through my body, and my skull I was confused and a small sprout of fear went through me as everything went dark.

Steve's Pov
"Steve if you are gonna help me, you can't be touching on everything, you act like Bucky." I rolled my eyes walking around the small little room in the compound amusement laced in my eyes.
"Oh shut up Tony." I chuckled folding my arms over my chest, I watched Tony messing around on his tablet sitting at one of the bar stools.
Clint was resting on the bar, messing with his bow and arrow. Bucky was on the floor with Sam. While Natasha was having a chat with Bruce deeply.
"Fuck you." Bucky laughed shaking his hair out deeply, rolling his eyes at Tony's little remark towards him. "Yeah love you too." Tony chuckled looking back down at his device still.
It was quite strange cause in unison all of us expect for Sam suddenly gripped our heads even I did. It was the strangest pain I ever felt. "Ow, what the hell?" I whispered locking eyes with Clint who shook his head out quickly looking in confusion.
" Tony!" I jolted a little startled watching as Happy was chasing after a very frantic black woman. I never had seen her in my entire life.
"Tony I'm sorry she just a stormed in here." Happy stammered out but Tony looked at the woman, his eyes showing he knew her.
"No no Happy let her in that's Erica she's Artemis's mom, Erica what's wrong?" Tony questioned slowly sliding off the stool, still cradling the back of his head.

"Something's wrong... I feel it I got off work and Artemis usually calls me when she gets home from school but she didn't, and her backpack is at the apartment along with her phone and there's blood." Erica was rushing all these words out, but these strange little feelings kept rushing through me.
Over time I learned it was whatever Artemis was feeling and it was all over the place. It was fear, the confusion it was a lot. I kept holding my head looking to Natasha and Bruce speaking to them.
"You guys feel that don't you?" I questioned clear worry in my voice. "I feel it," Natasha said clearly worried. "Fuck," Clint whispered and Tony breathed a heavy sigh as he started cussing quietly, his eyebrows knitted in confusion, worry, and fear.
"Alright, Erica here come with me alright, I'm gonna send Clint and Bucky over to check out what's going on. I'll even call Peter and find out what happened at school okay don't panic. " Tony reassured her grabbing the woman's arms. He was reassuring her deeply with his words. And with all the years I've known Tony I know he was panicking just a little like we were.
But we all weren't stupid. I wasn't. Someone has her, I can feel it everyone can feel it. Tony gave me a look and I nodded my head reading his expression very well.
I leaned up off the wall, all of us quickly springing into action very quickly. I rushed down towards the lab, giving Wanda a quick explanation when she gave me a strange look as she was headed to where ever she was going. Before I entered Tony's lab and I grabbed one of his tablets typing in Artemis's information.
The small little tracker on her phone wasn't gonna give us to much information cause of was back at her apartment. I started heavily chewing at my lower lip starting to heavily panic just a little bit yeah this was bad.
