Chapter 2: Arrangement
Dr Banner ignored the rest of his team, Director Fury and Agent Ingly and walked over to the two little girls. Bethany and Deanna stood side by side, watching the chaos they had caused unintentionally. "Hello." Bruce greeted, sitting crossed legged in front of the young girls.
"Hello." Bethany smiled.
"Hi." Deanna waved slightly.
"Could you tell me something?" Bruce asked, causing the pair to nod. "How long have you been alone, without you're parents?" Bethany and Deanna looked at each other for a moment, almost like they were unsure of the answer. Finally the brunette spoke up;
"Around three days."
"Okay then. Can you come with me, so I can make sure you're okay?" Bruce asked kindly as he stood to his feet. "My names Doctor Bruce Banner but you can call me Bruce." The girls again exchanged looks before following after the curly haired doctor/scientist.
The three of them walked a little way away from the games room and into in medical wing of the HQ. No Nurses occupied the room because they were on break. Gently, Bruce lifted the two children up onto one of the medical beds and waited for them to get comfortable.
Once they were settled Bruce ran a simple, standard medical examination to make sure both girls were fit and health. Apart from being a little hungry and thirsty the two young girls were medically fine. They never once murmured or complained, until Bruce brought out two needles for a blood test.
Instantly Bethany and Deanna jumped from the medical bed and darted towards the door. However, as they did the door slid open and the rest of the team walked in, closely followed by Nick and Jamelah. "Want a hand Banner?" Tony asked, noticing the run away girls.
"This is exactly why I didn't want them in my headquarters!" Fury exclaimed.
"They're fine Director." Natasha said, watching as Steve picked up Bethany and Clint picked up Deanna. Both girls kicked and screamed as Bruce and Tony drew a small amount of blood from each of them.
"See, it wasn't that bad." Steve cooed gently, bouncing his knees slightly.
"No it was horrible." Deanna huffed, folding her arms in anger.
"I dislike needles." Bethany muttered.
"Okay!" Tony suddenly exclaimed. "How the hell are you two that smart?"
"Language!" Steve snapped,
"We have natural intellectual brains, since we both harness a certain talent that most don't have. Our brains collect and remember information like a computer saves a document, it's how they work." Deanna replied as she shifted on Clint's lap slightly.
"So you're both walking computers?" Tony confirmed in a question like manner.
"The only differences are we aren't Google and we're not robots." Bethany nodded, climbing off Steve's lap and back onto the floor.
"You know enough to be Google by the sounds of it." Clint said, letting the blonde down onto the floor.
"Meh, I guess we're close" Deanna shrugged as she began exploring the lab, Bethany by her side.
"What do you suggest we do with them Agent Ingly?" Fury asked, turning away from watching the two small girls.
"Well, are they in good health Doctor?" The inter asked.
"Okay health. They need food and a drink but other than that they should be fine." Bruce replied, quickly reading his notes on the two girls. "The only problem really is they won't give up either of their last names so I can't track their parents."
"We were told by our parents not to give out last names!" Bethany piped up from the back of the room.
"And then forced us to forget our last names so we couldn't give them out!" Deanna added.
"Okay so what do we do with them?" Natasha asked
"Well I've still got loads of work to do!" Jamelah said before anything could be suggested.
"So why bring them back?" Steve asked.
"They were alone on the streets they needed somewhere to go. Plus their talents are extraordinary." Agent Ingly shrugged.
"An orphanage would have worked." The Director huffed.
"I doubt an orphanage would be able to cope with their talents." Bruce argued. All seven adults were slowly getting annoyed at the fact they couldn't figure out where to send the young girls.
"I've made up my mind." Fury finally spoke after several moments of silence. "Avengers, you have a new mission! To raise Bethany and Deanna."
"What?!"
