The Agent's Daughter

Choices

When my eyes hit Clint, I let out the biggest smile ever.

I felt like the happiest person alive right now.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, as his arms went around my waist.

I was with my family, and I was with Clint.

I broke away from him, with his arms still around me.

I smiled.

“How is that possible?” I turned to see Pepper ask.

“There’s something very, VERY special and different about me…” I said.

They all had a look of confusion on their faces.

So I let go of Clint, even though that was the last thing I wanted to do, but I had to show them.

“Fire. Come to me…” I muttered quietly.

In an instant, a flame appeared on my hand.

They all jumped back a little bit.

I snapped my fingers, and the flame was gone.

They just stared at me. I out my hands together and when I opened them up again, I had created a ball of water; hovering in mid-air with a snap of my wrists, that ball of water became a ball of rock.

They were just staring at me, like I had three eyes or something.

Then, just as quickly as the ball of earth came to me, it disappeared.

“So what does this all mean?” Nat asked me.

“Well, it means a few things actually, one of them is, that…I can now control the 5 elements. Two, I am the daughter of Athena, A Greek Goddess. Three, I am a Goddess. Four, I am the Goddess of the Elements. That is basically how I survived that injury, because of my mother……but there is a catch……” I said.

“What do you mean?” Tony asked. I turned to face my friends.

“I have 2 choices… to live an immortal life in Olympus.

"Or to live a mortal life, on earth. And still be an Avenger…"

They all gave me strange looks. “What?” I asked.

“Why can’t you just be both?” Nat asked.

“Well, because I am a Greek Goddess, it means that I have a seat in Olympus, and I have duties up there. I can’t be an Avenger, while having a seat on Olympus; everything would just get too complicated for me. I couldn’t be in two places at once; this is a really difficult choice for me……” I said.

“I want to be an Avenger don’t get me wrong, but I am the only Goddess who can control all of the 5 elements without a problem…”

“But your family is in on Olympus though, Maddy…” Nat said.

“But you guys are basically my family as well…” I said.

“I have to choose, but she said that she would give me some time to consider both decisions, but she said I would have to come with an answer sooner or later…”

They all still gave me strange looks.

I just couldn’t take it anymore.

“I’m going to go get some air…” I said, breaking the awkward silence.

I walked past them, and onto the empty landing deck.

Trying, desperately to clear my head.

This was a very difficult decision to make.

My family was here, on earth.

But my real family was on Olympus.

I knew one thing for sure.

My life had just gotten even more complicated than ever.
