"Slide!" Skye danced around the base of the ladder. Her dad lifted her up to the top. Skye slid down into her mother's arms. She giggled as Nat brought her into a warm embrace.

"Can I have a turn?" A small voice asked, causing the entire Romanoff family to turn around.

"Of course hun," Nat replied. They watched as the small brown haired girl climbed the ladder on her own and slid down. She giggled all the way down. She looked slightly older than Skye was.

Nat let Skye down. "What's your name?" She asked.

"Wanda."

"Cool, I'm Skye!" The two girls played together for hours. Steve and Nat sat on a nearby bench, not taking their eyes off of their three year old.

Finally, it was time to go home. Nat gathered up Skye while Steve collected the toys. That's when they noticed something, no one but them and this little girl was at the park. Where did Wanda come from?

"Hey Wanda, where are your parents?"

"Over there." She pointed to the empty bench before realizing her mom was gone. "Mommy?"  She searched through the entire park, where had her mom gone? She said she would be on the bench while Wanda played but did she lie?

Nat and Steve didn't know what to do, or did they?
