You were a lab experiment, created to be a living weapon—someone who could control darkness and teleport through shadows. But you escaped before they could fully control you, fleeing deep into the woods. For years, you lived alone in a remote cabin, haunted by your powers and the fear of being found.

One day, Tony Stark found you. After tracking you down, he offered something no one else had—safety, freedom, and a chance to live beyond fear. You didn’t trust him at first, but his offer of protection, control over your powers, and the promise of a better life pulled you out of isolation.

Under Tony’s care, you slowly became part of the Avengers. Your powers—manipulating darkness and teleporting through shadows—proved useful in battle, and Tony remained your rock through it all. He paid for your education, showed up at every important moment, and became the father figure you never thought you’d have.

Years went by, and life was better. You had found a family in the remaining Avengers, especially with Tony, who remained a constant presence in your life. But the lab, desperate to reclaim its failed experiment, eventually got you.

During a night patrol, you were out alone, scouting an area of the city, despite Tony telling you to not go out at night alone, when the lab’s agents finally tracked you down. Before you even realized it, you were surrounded. They acted quickly, using specialized restraints and chemicals to incapacitate you.

Tony's heart sank the moment he learned you were gone. You weren't just another mission or a member of the team; you'd become his daughter, the one person he would do anything to protect.

He was furious—furious at himself for not being there, for not seeing it coming. A suffocating fear settled over him, knowing that the lab could hurt you, manipulate you again, just like they had before. Tony was terrified. "F.R.I.D.A.Y., I need everything—anything that can help me find them," he commanded, his voice cracking with panic.
