*Jax's pov*
I lay on the couch in front of the TV, Its about Ten o'clock and I'm almost drifting asleep.

I'm jolted out of my state of peace when I hear a loud banging at the door, I sprint over to the door and opening it making sure the banging wouldn't wake up my foster parents.

" Captain America?" I say totally confused at why the superhero was at my door.

" Hey Jax, have seen or heard from Rebel lately" He panted, as if he had ran here instead of drove.

" No, why? Is everything okay?" the panicked expression of his face made me uneasy

" When we woke up this morning she was gone, someone must have snuck into the tower and took her" A red head women to the left of Captain America fills me in.

" Oh my god, how can I help?" I ask

" Is there any place Rebel usually hangs out, somewhere where she could be?" she asks.

" Yeah there are a few place we could check" I replied, slipping my jacket and boots on.

Captain America and the red head lead me to their car, we pile in and I give the directions to the first place

...

"Is this it?" Captain  America asked confused

" Yup this is it" I confirm

" But its just an alley" the red head points out.

I get out of the car and lead them down the dark alley, we yell Rebel's name repeatedly. Only to receive cruses from awoken neighbors shouting from there windows.

"She's not here" I state

"Obviously" I the red head retorts

We get back into the car and head to the next place, Sam's Pet Store.

"Why would she be at a pet store?" Captain America questions

" I don't know, but she likes to come here and look at all the dogs when she's upset" I confess

" Well its closed so she obviously isn't here" the red head clarifies

We get back into the car, heading to the last spot where I could possibly think she could be. Jim's house.

"Who's house is this?" Captain America asked ( who I just learned was really named Steve)

" Her last foster father" I state grimly, remembering everything she told me about him

The red head who name turned out to be Natasha, starts out of the car.

"Wait" I hiss

"What now?" she sasses

"Be careful" I warn

The two look at each other puzzled, then back at me

" We're Avengers, we can handle this, wait in the car."  Steve commands

I slouch down in the leather seat making sure anyone who was outside couldn't see me, I definitely didn't feel safe around here. I watched as Steve and Natasha approached the door and knock.

A shirtless man answered, he looked to be in his late fifties. Looking very wasted and tired.

I cracked the window to listen to was they were saying.

" Sorry to wake you sir, but have you happened to see a child named Rebel" Natasha starts

The face the man made when he heard her name was terrifying. He was everything Reble had told me.

" Rebel ain't my kid no more." He replied

" Who are you, child protective services?" the man questioned

" No we're-" Steve stopped before finishing his sentence, he didn't know what they were to her.

" We're friends of her's" Natasha injected

" And she's missing" Steve adds

The man let out a dry laugh.

" How was this funny?"

" Yeah that's the thing bout Rebelis, she like running away." He scoffs, leaving the other two completely confused

None of them knew Rebel's full name was Rebelis, they found the information shocking.

Who knew Rebel was short for Rebelis?

"Well have you seen her or not" Natasha pressed, getting irritated by his dodging of  questions.

" Nope" Jim answered.

Both Steve and Natasha sigh at the lacking of information about where Rebel was. They started off the porch before Jim called them back

" Hey, when you find her tell her; that daddy said hi" He grinned, looking purely evil

Neither Steve nor Natasha replied to the man, just continued walking towards the car.

Natasha and Steve enter into the car again, I act dumb and questioned them about what they found out. Pretending that I wasn't listening the whole time.

" Nothing helpful, except Rebel's full name is Rebelis." Steve sighed as he started the car

" That guy gave me the creeps" Natasha says as she shuddered.

"Yeah what's up with him" Steve question, directing the question towards me.

"It's not my place to say"
