Kalypso was tired enough that she had to sleep. Normally she could just choose not to waste time sleeping, but today she needed to sleep. She had spent the better part of the past two weeks traveling and for her traveling meant between Olympia and Titan. The Eternals of both Earth and Titan needed to be warned of the threat the deviants posed and her cousin’s dream of Thanos.

Interplanetary travel was quite taxing and her stores of cosmic energy were depleted.

She landed on Jack’s fire escape and barely managed to use telekinesis to open the latch and open the window. Jack would be in class right now and wouldn’t be home for a few hours. Kal would use that time to sleep and recharge.

She crawled inside and fell facedown on the bed.

Blink.

Blink.

Blink.

That couldn’t be right. There was no possible way the thing could be right. Right? The chances were…astronomically slim yet the indicator was telling her otherwise.

What the hell happened?

Natasha rubbed her face with both hands and looked at the indicator once more. It didn’t change despite how much she wanted it to change. It was plain as day. She was pregnant. This was…wow. The last thing on earth she expected.

She had her first suspicions when she started sleeping more. Her normal four hours turned into six or eight. The last time Natasha had slept even remotely that long was when she was carrying Anya and Misha. The queasy stomach in the mornings was another sign. Natasha put two and two together and got a home pregnancy test.

The damn thing was positive.

She was trying to wrap her brain around the idea and trying to figure out how, outside of the obvious, it happened. Tony had a vasectomy years ago and she definitely hadn’t cheated on him, so what went wrong?

Natasha rubbed the bridge of her nose. Now what? First step would be getting immunosuppressants of course, then she had to tell Tony, and then tell the kids. Oh this was going to go over like a ton of bricks. Though while she was pondering what the possible reactions would be, an evil little thought crept into her mind.

Her husband loved to play games; well it was time to turn the tables on him. Coming out and just telling him would be way too easy. Natasha smiled as she put the testing stick in the box and grabbed the box. There would be no evidence left laying around for him to find.

With a plan in mind, she left the bathroom.

The Quinjet has been landed and secured in a location where the Avengers can locate it easily.

And thanks to the internet, they're already at the first wedding chapel on Charlie's list, The Temple of Love. Quick 'n easy, while maintain some level of class at the same time. Perfect for Anya.

Inhaling, Charlie threw the doors open, the rest of the Avengers behind him.

"I OBJECT!"

Only to find that the couple currently in standing in front of Elvis exchanging vows aren't Anya and Steve.
