You fell face first on your bed for the first time in months. Being locked up by Hydra while a evil version of Captain America really put things into perspective. For example, you were probably not going to trust the US government for a while. And you were also not going to be joining any underground resistance either.

Y/N: I missed you bed.

Hailey: I'm glad you're ok.

You smiled as you gave her a thumbs up. You let your arm drop before your ohone began to ring. You lazily picked it up and answered.

Y/N: Hello?

Ms. Marvel: Leviathan? You there?

Y/N: Yep. Is there a Champions problem? If so, can I decline? I'm still in a lot pain from fighting Hydra.

Ms. Marvel: No. Nothing like that. We're having karaoke night. We were wondering if you wanted to join?

You gave it some thought.

Y/N: I'll pass on this one. I'm not much of a singer and I kinda want to rest a bit.

Ms. Marvel: Oh. Alright then. Well I'll be in touch if you change your mind.

Y/N: Thanks. Have fun.

Ms. Marvel: Get some rest.

You hung up and sighed as you buried your face in your pillow. Sleep was nice. Sleep was good. Sssssslllllleeeeeeeppppppp.
---------
2 Years Ago....

You yawned as you walked toward the kicthen after another late night of experiments. Your hair was shorter and you had bags under your eyes. You started up the homemade coffee machine and threw two pieces of bread into the toaster.

Y/N: So, tired.

Your coffee was poured and you picked it up. You sipped on it before you set it down on the counter. At least, you thought you did. The coffee instead dropped straight to the ground as you looked at it.

Y/N: Gravity. My worse enemy.

You grabbed some paper towels and cleaned uo the mess. You tossed the paper away just as your mom walked in.

Mom: Oh. Good morning. You're up early.

You slowly turned around to her with a crooked smile.

Mom: Did you even sleep?

Y/N: What do you think?

Your mom just sighed.

Mom: What am I going to do with you?

You poured yourself another cup of coffee and retrieved your toast before sitting at the table. You bit into the crispy bread before yawning again. You looked at your coffee for a moment before your head dropped to the table.

Y/N: Insomnia sucks!

Mom: You get it from your father.

She took a sip from your mug but retracted from the bitter taste.

Mom: You also get your love of black coffee from him to.

She set it back down on the table and you sat up. You were just tired mostly.

Mom: Did you have time to practice yesterday?

You nodded.

Y/N: Always. I can actually do a handstand for a few minutes now.

Your mom smiled before standing up and leaving the room. You returned to eating before something was set in front of you. You raised a brow as you looked at the pair of gloves your mom had dropped on the table.

Mom: Then I guess you're ready for the real thing.

Hailey: Are you guys going out to train?

You both looked over to see Hailey walk into the kitchen.

Y/N: Yeah. You think you'll be good on your own for a bit?

Hailey: Yeah of course. I have some stuff to work on anyway.

Mom: I wish I had your kids' intelligence.
----------
You sat on the old barrel in the empty warehouse you often practiced at as you finished tuning your goggles.

Mom: You know, back in my day, we didn't have all that fancy stuff. I had to do everything by hand.

You looked up at her and saw that she was in her Leviathan suit. A skin tight but well armored black suit which reached up to around her neck. There, she could conncet her mask at will that would cover her face but leave her hair flowing. You were just wearing your old costume.

Y/N: Times are changing. You have to change with them so you aren't left behind.

Your mom just smiled before she put on her mask.

Mom: You ready?

You smiled as you pulled down your goggles.

Y/N: Born ready.

You followed her across the rooftops and did your best to keep up. It wasn't easy. Your mother had been doing this for years now and you had only begun training about half a year ago. You did have one advantage however. You shot out a line and swing towards her to catch up. Unlike your mother, you had actually gotten a good grasp of the grapple feature on your gear. You ended up on the edge of a building and looked down.

Y/N: So, what now?

Mom: Now, we wait for trouble. As soon as it hits, it's our job to jump in and help.

Y/N: Why?

Your mom sat down and you mirrored the action.

Mom: Because it's what your grandfather did. He fought fires and saved countless lives. I was inspired by his bravery and I wanted to help others to. Leviathan is a symbol of hope. Someone who does good without ever needing the recognition. Leviathan is the good in all our hearts. That's why we do what we do.

You smiled at her encouraging words. Yeah. Leviathan was the good in your heart to.
---------
You swung back home with your mom close behind before you reached the top of your apartment building. You streached a bit from the last fight but smiled regardless.

Y/N: I am so going to sleep like a log tonight. I can almost feel it.

Mom: You did great today. I'm proud of you.

She gave you a hug before you both heard gunshots.

Y/N: That was from...

Mom: Below.

You both looked at each other in horror before you rushed down the stairs. You raced down the hallway and saw that the door to your apartment was kicked open.

Y/N: Hailey!

You both burst in and found a man standing there. His face was covered and he was holding a rifle while looking down at your little sister who was bleeding on the floor.

Y/N: HAILEY!

The man turned around and saw the two of you. You would never forget what you saw. The metal arm with the red star. The man who put Hailey in a wheelchair for the rest of her life. The man you had sworen to break with your own two hands.

Mom: GET AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER!

Your mom leaped into action as the man rushed to the window and jumped through. Your mom followed as you raced over to Hailey.

Y/N: Hey. Hey. It's me. Hailey?

Hailey: I, I can't feel my legs.

Y/N: You'll be ok. You'll alright. I'm here. I'm here.
-----------
Present Day.....

Your head shot up from the pillow at the sound of your ohone ringing. You looked around for it before you spotted it. You grabbed it and answered.

Y/N: Huh?

Janet: Leviathan?

Y/N: Yee?

Janet: You just wake up as well?

Y/N: Yee.

Janet: Perfect. I would like you to go somewhere with me and my step daughter.

You looked over at the time and saw it was 10:02 AM.

Y/N: Ugh?

Janet: Bring your sister as well.

Y/N: Hauah?

Janet: Yes. Haiely. Nice girl. She had texted my on your phone before, well, things went crazy.

Y/N: Hauehakah?

Janet: Exactly. Now the place I want you to meet me at is....
-----
Queens, NY...

Y/N: The temporary superhuman holding facility?

Janet: Oh. You already made it.

You turned around and saw Janet approching with two teenage girls. While Hailey wore her normal wear, you were in full Leviathan gear. You looked up and recognized one of the girls.

Y/N: Nadia?

Nadia: Mr. Leviathan?! What are you doing here?

Janet: Nadia, this here is Hailey L/N. The girl I was telling you about.

Nadia's eyes went wide as she suddenly appeared next to Hailey.

Naida: It is an honor to meet you finally! Janet told me about you and I've been dying to get a chance to actually talk to you in person.

Hailey: Really?

Naida: Yeah. I actually wanted to recruit you to my new program.

Hailey: What's the program?

Nadia pulled out a blue box from her bag and activated it. A hologram appeared that showed the Avengers and other heroes along with Nadia who began to talk.

Nadia: Avengers, SHIELD, AIM, nameless cabals, super teams, and illuminati. The greatest heroes and villains in the world also regarded as the smartest and most formidable minds in the world. Also 75% to 90% male. Recently a young girl by the name Lunella Lafayette was revealed to be the smartest person in the world. If she hadn't proven herself on her own, they would've never had known because they aren't looking at us.

You felt kinda out of place during all this. Well, girl power? Yay? What were you getting out of this beside guilt?

Nadia: G.I.R.L, Genius In Action Research Labs, is dedicated to finding the brilliant girls and women who will not just save the world, but change it. Not weapon makers, not dictators, not spies. Brilliant and creative girls who dream big.

The hologram stopped and the box turned off. Nadia placed it back in her bag and looked back to Hailey.

Nadia: And I want you to join.

Hailey: Me? Really?!

Nadia: You're brilliant! Janet sent me some of the designs you made for Leviathan and I've never seen anything like them before!

Y/N: Designs she made for me?

Janet: Yes. As your exclusive partner, she sent me some ideas she had to further upgrade your suit the next time you decide to do so.

You looked at your sister. So that's why she had your phone the day you and Sam made that video. She was texing Janet the blueprints for the new upgrades she had been bugging you about. Also, nice cover story about her being your partner and not your sister.

Hailey: That sounds awesome! Can I join?

You realized she was talking to you. You looked around nervously before shrugging.

Y/N: It's 100% your choice. You don't need my approval.

Hailey smiled.

Hailey: Then I'm in!

Naida: Yes!

The two hugged while you shuffled over to Janet.

Y/N: Thanks for not saying she's my sister.

Janet: Of course. Superhero code and all that jazz. Now, for this next part we might have to have your sister wait in the car. I doubt you want her around some of the most dangerous criminals in New York.

Y/N: No. No I do not.
--------
You all approached the front desk after getting Hailey situated in the car.

Janet: I have an appointment with prisoners Pouncy and Feliciano.

Guard: And you're planning on taking teenage girls with you?

Janet: Oh, they're my bodyguards.

The guard looked at the two girls and saw you as well.

Guard: Fine. Go on ahead.

The four of you walked away from the desk and followed Janet. From behind, one of the prisoners got rowdy and whistled.

Prisoner: Hey pretty lady, why don't you come over here and visit me?

The dark haired girl, Ying you pieced together, groaned.

Ying: Are you sure I could not just dislocate his mandible? It would keep him from speaking.

Janet: Ying, until we sort out your immigration status, you won't dislocate anyone's anything.

Ying: It would be so quick.

The man opened his mouth to saw something but you shot him a look that immediately shut him up.

Nadia: Janet, why are we here?

Janet just smiled.

Janet: You gave me a list. This is the first thing on it.

Nadia suddenly seemed to realize what she was talking about.

Nadia: Oh!

Y/N: I'm still lost. Why did I need to come along?

Janet: Because you were involved in this as well.

Y/N: Involed in what the hell are those two doing here?

You suddenly recognized the two women sitting at the visiting table. It was Poundckaes and Letha.

Nadia: I'm going to apologize.

Y/N: For kicking their asses when they tried to shake down an old lady for protection money?

Nadia: Well, I did break her knee.

Y/N: She was shaking down an old lady for protection money!

Nadia: I didn't have to hurt her that bad.

Y/N: You are the weirdest hero I have ever met. Then again, I haven't really gotten a chance to meet a lot of heroes. I was locked up for most of that weird Hydra thing.

You all approached the table where you all sat down.

Poundcakes: I ain't falling for this sweet little act again. Last time you wrecked my knee. I won't be able yo wrestle again without a brace.

You rolled your eyes.

Nadia: This isn't an act. I am genuinely sorry for what I did to you. You were wrong and needed to be stopped. But I was wrong as well. I lost my temper.

Y/N: Old lady getting shaken down.

Nadia: Each of us. You two and us, we we've been programed for violence.

Y/N: Don't rope me in with them. I never shook down an old lady.

Nadia: We've been taught that hurting one another is the only way. I'm trying to do better. I think I can. I don't wish to hurt anyone else the way I hurt you. Will you forgive me?

Everyone looked at you and you looked back at them.

Y/N: What?

Nadia: Don't you want to say something.

You gave it some thought.

Y/N: I guess.

You turned to the two wrestlers and folded your hands.

Y/N: Right. Well, DON'T TRY TO ROB OLD LADIES!

Janet and Nadia glared at you and you sighed.

Y/N: Fine! Sorry for kicking your ass after you tried to shake down a defenseless old woman.

Nadia: Good enough, I guess.

Poundcakes: You know, I don't think anyone has ever apologized to me for hitting me before in my whole life. 'Course I forgive ya. Letha and I never wanted to do this kinda work but...

Letha: You have to make enough bank to eat. So we got in with Mr. Negative and that ain't something you can get out of.

Y/N: Still tried to rob an old lady.

Janet: Well, I think you'll fine these are a good start.

She placed down two things of paperwork and slid them over to the two women.

Poundcakes: What's this?

Janet: Contracts for employment.

You raised a brow.

Janet: The Aggarwaals, the owners of the store you trashed, had agreed to drop all charges under the condition you work for Pym Laboratories.

Poundcakes: Lady, we aint scientists.

Janet: No but you would be excellent personal security for a group of very intelligent girls who will be changing the world.

Security? That, actually didn't sound all that bad. Plus it would get them away from the life of crime. Maybe, this was a good deal.

Janet: In return, you will be paid a generous salary and Pym Labs is prepared to sponsor your athletic pursuits, including a redesign of your costumes and branding by our fashion expert and P.R. expert. That's me by the way.

Nadia/Y/N: Wow.

Janet, was a badass.
---------
Cresskill, NJ....

You pulled out Hailey's wheelchair from the trunk before helping her in it as everyone got out of the car.

Nadia: You got them out of prison and now they're coming to work here?! I don't think you comprehend how amazing you are.

You smiled. Seems like Nadia was ok with all of this. Besides, this was her personal pursuit anyway. It wasn't like you had any beef with those women. Well, they did shake down an old lady but they seemed to be sincere about regretting that part.

Janet: I always preferred astonishing, but amazing sounds good when you say it.

You smiled at the two Wasps as they talked. You looked down at your sister and saw how excited she was to finally be inside of Pym Laboratories. Like a kid on Christmas.

You entered the lobby and looked around. It seemed, slightly different. Standing in front of the desk was a man dressed in a suit with a brief case. You looked closer and saw that he also had a walking stick.

Janet: You two can go wait in my lab. We have some personal manners to attend to.

You nodded and pushed Hailey down the hall. You entered the lab and let go of the chair so Hailey could roll around on her own.

Hailey: Wow. This has to be a dream! I'm in Pym Laboratories, in Janet Van Dyne's lab, and I got recruited into an all girls science group!

Y/N: Yeah. Things have definitely gotten better over the years. Remember when we were growing up and we had to ration bread?

Hailey laughed at the memory.

Hailey: Or how the oven broke and we didn't have enough to fix it so we just ate cereal for a month.

You both shared a laugh at the horrible memories of your life before your mom's job. Raising two kids on your own was never easy and she sure did give it hell. You didn't have a lot growing up but it didn't matter. You had each other.

Y/N: We've come, a long way since then.

Hailey: I know. And I'm glad. Honestly I should be thanking you?

Y/N: Thanking me? Why me?

Hailey: Because, if you never became Leviathan then we wouldn't be here. You wouldn't have met Janet, I wouldn't have sent those blue prints, and I wouldn't have been invited here.

You shook your head.

Y/N: Nonsense. You're smart as hell. You would've been a part of this regardless of me being Leviathan or not. You're a genius.

Hailey smiled proudly at your praise. It was true. Hell, Hailey once made a dog from scrap parts. Granted you accidentally broke it when one of your lines shot out and stabbed it. Horrible memories.

Y/N: You deserve this Hailey. 110%.
--------
You were spinning Hailey around in the desk chair as fast as you could when the door opened and Janet walked in. You looked up at her while Hailey cheered at the speed of the chair.

Janet: You two really are kids.

You stopped the chair and Hailey looked at Janet all dizzy. Janet just laughed.

Janet: Come on. The others are waiting for you.

Hailey: The others?

You picked her up and set her down into the wheelchair before pushing her to Janet.

Janet: I can take care of her if you want.

Y/N: You sure?

Janet just nodded.

Janet: Besides, I could use your help with something else. Down the hall and to the left is a room. There's some stuff in there that I could use an extra option on.

You nodded.

Y/N: Consider it done.

You looked at Hailey.

Y/N: Have fun. Remember, first impressions are important so maybe blow something up and assert your dominance.

Hailey: You got it bro!

She gave you a thumbs up while Janet playfully rolled her eyes. She pushed Hailey down the hall while you went the other way. You wondered why these inventions weren't in her lab but you didn't really question it. You followed her directions before you found an isolated door away from the others. You approached it before you looked at the name plate.

Y/N: Wait a second.

You looked closer and saw the name engraved in it. Leviathan.

Y/N: This, this is...

You quickly opened the door and stepped inside. It was a bare lab space with all the things you needed to test out your gear and even a bed tucked away in the corner.

Y/N: This is...I must be dreaming.

You looked around and spotted a framed photo on one of the desks. It was the one of you and Janet. You set it back down and took off your helmet.

Y/N: This is, mine?

Janet: It is.

You turned around and saw the woman enter.

Janet: I figured you could use your own space to work on things in private. I already contacted your mother about this and she was ok with it. She did say that you will still be attending school and you should visit as often as you can.

Y/N: I can't believe this. I have my own lab.

Janet: And we recently hired a new employee. Y/N L/N.

You raised a brow before you realized what she meant.

Y/N: So I can walk around without my gear.

Janet: Exactly. You will be allowed to work on your own but your official title is as a security along with Poundcakes and Letha. Of course, that's only when they actually need security.

Y/N: I, I don't know what to say.

Janet: Just say you're on board.

You smiled.

Y/N: Of course.

Janet: Good. Because we need security to join us on a field trip.

Y/N: A field trip?

Janet: Yep. Come along now. The girls should meet you.

You nodded and took off your gear before following Janet down the hall to a door with the G.I.R.L logo on it. She opened it and you saw Hailey talking to the other girls excitedly.

Janet: Ladies, I would like to introduce you all to Y/N L/N. He will be serving as security when needed.

You awkwardly waved at the group of girls.

Y/N: Hey there.

Nadia: You must be Hailey's brother! She told us you invent things to.

You nodded.

Y/N: Here and there.

You looked over to Hailey, and winked.
