Bedtime Story

And there came a day unlike any other, when Earth's Mightiest heroes were united against a common threat.

The soldier.

The god.

The knight.

The spy.

The giant.

The king.

The pixie.

The ghost.

And the archer.

On that day, the Avengers were born. To fight foes that no single hero could withstand; time traveling conquerors, alien invaders, and masters of evil.

The Avengers vanquished them all.

And finally, when the world was at peace, the heroes built lives of their own.

The soldier and spy fell in love.

As did the giant and pixie.

The king found his queen.

And the thunder god returned to his kingdom far away from the world of men.

And one by one, the children of the Avengers came to be. Children who would one day become a new generation of heroes.

But in time, evil returned. An evil called . . . Ultron.

Ultron wanted nothing less than total dominion of the world. But the Avengers stood in its way.

Sadly, their defeat was inevitable.

But before they fell, the Avengers hid their children in a faraway place, where they would grow up safe from Ultron's grasp. Because the Avengers knew that as long as the children were alive, there was hope.

Hope for the future.

Disclaimer: I own nothing to do with this story, I merely wish to dabble with it.

Author's Notes: This is word for word the story Tony tells the children at the beginning of the movie. The way he tells it, you can almost feel everything he isn't saying. The kids would never have noticed, they didn't really know their parents well, nor the truth of everything that happened. I am going to write another one that infuses as much of what I think Tony is thinking and feeling while he tells this story. But for now, this is my first Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow story. This fandom is rather small, and I don't expect much from these stories, but hopefully I can help boost up this fandom a little. It's the least I can do for such an amazing movie. Take care! God bless!
