We all depart the quinjet walk through the compound. Steve and Bucky are stood either side of Dad and I am walking behind him with Tony. We had a short debrief on the jet and I know that Vanessa and Peter are in Tony's office waiting. The closer we get the more nervous I am. Once Dad and I get to his office we walk in. Peter releases a sigh of relief with Vanessa looks really confused and her eyes tear up. However the longer she looks at Wade, she goes from confused to angry.

'What the hell is going on? Wade, what are you doing here? You are dead' She shouts

'I am sorry I left' Dad whispered not knowing what to say but knew he couldn't remain silent.

'Hayley, you knew' Vanessa sounded so hurt.

'I literally found out a couple of hours ago. I wanted to tell you as soon as I found out but Fury told me I couldn't as it was classified information. As soon as I was allowed to tell you I did, I promise' Vanessa just looked at me angry but understanding. She knew that it wasn't my fault she couldn't have known sooner but was grateful I at least told her. She turns to Dad walking closer to him shocked he is alive. Vanessa raises a hand to his face taking in his new look but then something snaps and she pushes him back

'You left us asshole' Vanessa shouts.

'Please let me explain'

'Oh this better be good otherwise I am going to kill you'

'Well, there is a guy who said he could try to fix my cancer and that is where I went but he ended up turning me into this freak show. So I have been trying to get to him so he can fix this. I am so sorry I left, I really am but I didn't want you and Hayley to watch me suffer, I wanted you guys to remember me as the man you loved not a weak cancer riddled man'

'I would rather have had cancer riddled you than no you' I speak up

'That still doesn't explain why you are here. What do the Avengers want with you?' Vanessa looking as confused. To be fair that hasn't changed since we walked in the door.

'I don't know' My Dad lies. I am not having him lie about this. 'Seriously! He knows exactly why he is here. To find the guy who did this to him, who is called Francis, he has been murdering people to find him. He does it in a red suit and goes by the name of Deadpool'

'How do you know all of this?' Dad looks at me completely shocked.

'How do you think? I got to the Stark Internship last year and since Deadpool has come on the radar I have been helping to find out his identity but God knows I never thought it would be my lying, two-faced piece of shit that I have the pleasure of calling my father' I shout. Part of me knows I went too far but that is how I felt. Actually I don't know how I feel

'What the hell happened to you?' Dad looks hurt

'What do you mean?'

'I brought you up to be a sweet, kind, loving little girl and now you are so angry, upset and hurt. What happened?' God does he want me to spell it out on big bloody poster.

'Really, you don't know me at all, do you? I will tell you exactly what happened and he is standing right in front of me, you happened. I was happy as I could be because I had you but then you left and I had nothing only the other two people in this room. I had to learn to fend for myself and it made me stronger. So I am sorry that I am not your sweet little girl anymore but I had to grow up because of you' a solitary tear rolls down my cheek as I feel a hand on my shoulder knowing it was Peter.

'Oh Hayley I didn't know I really am sorry I thought leaving you would be the best for you but now I realise it was the worst decision'

'Yeah well that's life it isn't always shiny and bright' I look down avoiding all eye contact with anyone

'I'm glad to see that she is in good hands' Dad looks at Peter. I can't help but smile.

'Well she looks after me as much as I look after her. We are a team' Peter smiles back at me.

'Wait, you both work here?'

'Yeah, we do. We both got the internship. Peter has been here long than me' I answer.

'Oh, I didn't realise. Are you enjoying it?' I can't help by smile and nod. 'I love it here, it could be crazy, quiet, manic, and funny all at the same time but I wouldn't change it for the world' Suddenly the door opens and Fury enters. 'So I take it that you are Mr. Wilson' Dad nods

'It has taken us months to track you down and I am glad that we finally have found you. Listen we know you are looking for this guy, Francis, well we know where he is and we will help you take him down' Fury informs us.

'I have a feeling a rather big but coming' Dad comments. With Fury there usually is a but.

'We will help you get Francis BUT you don't hurt or kill anyone else' Fury putting major emphasis on the but

'Ok, I can make that deal' Dad nods knowing that if he kills anyone else then our relationship dies with that.

'Good then let's get started tracking this Francis and we will take him down' my Dad agrees and we all leave the office. As we are walking down the corridor, Wade tries to take my hand but I pull away. What if he leaves me again?
