A/N: This story goes along with the first four, and takes place in between the third and fourth ones.

 Life with Tony Stark is one that you've had to learn to adjust to. Since Tony is a man who attracts a lot of attention, you've had to try to get used to some of that attention being given to you.

 You start to get more used to Tony's friends, the Avengers. You were scared of them at first, but after meeting and befriending Peter, you begin to get used to them enough that you them give you a quick pat on the head whenever one of them happens to walk past you. They're all nice people, and you find you don't mind.

 You do have this habit of watching Tony and the rest of the Avengers if they all happen to sit down for a meal together. You stare at their food and watch them eat, but you don't want any of them to notice, so you look away whenever one of them happens to glace at you.

 However, Pepper notices this, and what you don't know is that she films a video of you at one of these mealtimes and posts it online. You first hear about it when Pepper is showing it to Tony, and he says to you, "So, that's why you always look so suspicious. Well, hey, you get to be an internet star now."

 You're not sure what it means to be an internet star, but Tony says it like it could be a good thing, so you figure it must be.

 Since you be friended Peter, you've realized how much you actually like children. They seem easier to be around than adults, so if you're ever out walking with Tony and Pepper, and any children ask if they can pet you, you let them give you a pat on the head while Tony explains to them that you can be very shy sometimes.

 You know from your own experience that there are some bad people in the world, even people who would hurt children. It comes to you when you're walking past the playground with Tony and Pepper one day. A bunch of kids are running around, and you had noticed there was a suspicious-looking man hanging around nearby. You keep your eyes on him as you walk by; that's how you see what happens.

 One of the kids is skipping along the edge of the playground, and the suspicious-looking man grabs her and attempts to drag her away. You pull on your leash and bark, and drag Tony in that direction as fast as you can. When Tony realizes what's going on, he runs with you, and you sink your teeth into the kidnapper's leg so he won't be able to get any further.

 That night, Tony says to you, "There was a story on the news about how you saved that girl today. People are saying you're a real hero. You really are quite the rescue dog, aren't you?"

 You lay your head down on Tony's feet, ready for a good night's sleep.
