I don't own Young Avengers. Obviously, yeah?

12 years from now…

Kate sighed. "Listen, honey. You cannot have another cookie."

"But… why not?" Lizzy said sadly. She was an adorable toddler. Her skin was a creamy brown, and her frizzy hair was in two pigtails. She had on a purple ruffled dress, black and white striped tights, and pink mary janes. And, on top of it all, she was pouting adorably. Combined the effect was almost irresistible.

Kate resisted. "Because, you've had three already. And another two when you thought I wasn't looking."

"Nuh uh." Lizzy said, putting on her "What? Me? But I'm a just a perfectly innocent angelic child!" face.

"Anyway, I want anotha' cookie!" Lizzy said with a slight two year old lisp. She was better at speaking then most toddlers.

Eli walked over to Kate and put his arm over her shoulder. Kate looked up and smiled.

"Listen to your mother." Eli said, smiling.

" Awww, c'mon, please daddy?"

Eli shook his head. "No can do, kiddo."

Lizzy scowled and began walking away from her parents, her pigtails bobbing slightly as walked. She went over to a black stool in front of the kitchen table. It was almost twice her height and made of iron. She kicked it. Amazingly, it toppled over, as though it were hollowed plastic. She then put her little hand around the inch-thick iron stool leg, and pulled. With a loud cracking sound, the leg snapped off the stool. Eli and Kate gasped. She grasped the stool leg firmly in both hands. " I said..." she bent the stool leg to an angle. "…That I wanted the cookie…" The leg was almost at breaking point. "…Now!" The leg snapped. Eli was shocked. So… Lizzy is a super solider! I'm not sure whether to be proud that she has super powers, or mad that she broke Kate's favorite stool… Kate was also shocked. That was my favorite stool! I loved that thing!

" Elizabeth Bradley!" Kate said loudly. "What do you a have do say for yourself!?"

"I-I'm sorry." Lizzy said.

"That's right young lady." Tears began to well up in Lizzy's eyes. Kate's expression softened. She bent down to one knee. "Oh, I'm sorry baby." She hugged Lizzy. "I know it's hard to control you're superpowers when you discover them. And you have two loving parents who know what's like two have superpowers-well, I guess only one who knows what it's like to have superpowers."

Lizzy smiled and nodded, tears still on her cheeks. "So… can I have a cookie now?"

Kate groaned and smacked her forehead. Eli grinned.

That's my little girl. She finds out she has superpowers, that she's not the same as most people in the world. And what does she do? She tries to use that as leverage to get another cookie. Eli shook his head.

I guess she really wanted that cookie.
