Lost and Found

Tears

"What the fu~?!"

"No time Bruce, is it ready?" Natasha interrupts while placing Peter on the nearest bed.

"Y~yeah. Um what happened?" Bruce starts getting out the equipment. His red headed best friend was sitting with the boy with a look that he has never seen her with.

'Weird.' Bruce thought before walking up to the two.

"He was running away from Child Protective Services when he bumped into me. He was in an abusive orphanage so I believe there are some bruises from that and he looked pale. He just looks dead and he passed out when we cameos the building. His name is Peter by the way." Natasha informs in a motherly manner which shocked Bruce even more.

"Okay, let's see the issue." Bruce takes off his Peter's hoodie that was bloodstained with a black t-shirt under it.

Bruce cut through it with som medical scissors to see a tremendous amount of open scars and bruises all around his small torso. Bruce was horrified at the sight as Natasha looked as if she was going to throw up.

"What in the world? Natasha where did he come from? He looks as if he was ran over with a bus." Bruce screeched trying so hard not to vomit.

"He said that he was on the run from some pissed of people for murder, but I didn't know like this though!" Natasha cried.

Peter squirmed in pain which broke Natasha's heart even more that day.

'Who would do this to him?" Bruce and Natasha though as the young child in front of them started to wake up.

His eyes opened slowly to the blurry sight of Natasha and a small man with curly brown hair and square glasses.

"Hey, Peter." The man waved as Natasha kept looking at him in worry. Peter met where her eyes landed and saw the numerous scars all over his body.

"Well damn?" Peter joked humorlessly as he watched the shock paint on both Natasha and the man.

"Holy shit, you're Bruce Banner." Peter cheers like a small child.

"Yeah, I know. The Hulk." Bruce sadly smiled at the boy.

"That's cool too, but you are The Dr. Bruce Banner. The most renowned scientist of this generation and beyond. I've read all of your books about Gamma Radiation and I have even found a cure in less that 10 minutes. You have inspired my love for science i you are one of my favorite Avengers too." Peter bounces in his now sitting position as if it was Christmas that day.

Bruce looked between Peter and Natasha, who had a proud look on her face for her green friend.

"You understood that... wait did you say you found a cure?!" Bruce was now wide eyed at Peter who was still bouncing in his seat with glee for talking to his favorite scientist in the world.

"Yeah, it was sort of difficult for the first two minutes but after that I got the hang of it. I could tell you about it, but you are a superhero so maybe for when you retire." Peter rambles.

"You know what kid maybe after we finish fixing you up, okay." Natasha interrupts the two geeks for the sake of the child's life.

"Oh, yeah." Bruce and Peter say at the same time before the procedure started.

Natasha walked out the room to the hallway where there was a big window showing the two boys.

For the last 30 minutes, Bruce stitched and patched up Peter and constantly looked at the computer after taking his blood test. Natasha was worried and confused as she watched the whole fiasco going on in the room.

After a few seconds all she saw was a panicked boy and a stressed out scientist arguing and then she started to see tears stream down Peter's face as Bruce tried every way to calm him down.

"What the hell is going on here?!" Natasha bust down the door and walked over to where Peter was now curled up in the corner.

"Did you know he was 50% SPIDER?!" Bruce screeched causing Peter to flinch and cover his ears.

"Calm down, Bruce. You're scaring him." Natasha warns giving him a death glare while slowly walking towards the teen.

"Hello my little spider, are you okay?" Natasha asks softly as she gently wipes the tears flowing down his cheek. Her heart broke as Peter tackles her into a hug, cause them to fall on the ground.

"No." Peter squeaked holding her tight as Natasha's heart melted.

Natasha held onto the spider boy as Bruce stood there in guilt and pain watching the boy cry in the assassins shoulder.

Bruce left the room after a few moments to let the two spiders be at peace.
