Wasp flew around the training room dodging one simulated attack after another. Occassionally she would blast the attacks she was unable to dodge but even then it was a rare thing for her to not be able to dodge anything. At her current height she was at least half an inch taller and moving at her fastest speed of fourty miles per hour the only way she could really be seen were by the yellow blasts coming from her hands.
Laura had been training alone for quite some time, something that was frowned upon by a good portion of the team. This was because how dangerous it could be to not have someone behind controls if the battle got to tough. But Laura needed to get some training in and since no one was around at the time she felt she was forced to work alone. Didn't really matter she was used to it anyways. Laura helped the Avengers when they needed her help but she prefered working by herself. Plus she had trained in a similar battle room in the Avengers academy, there she got a lot of practice in due to her father being the headmaster there.
But then Laura was hit by a metal arm produced by the training room she hit the wall hard falling onto the floor slowly changing back into her normal size the wings disappearing. She must've been more exhausted than she originally thought, the arm was slowly coming down to crush her like a bug. Laura prepared to roll out of the way when the arm stopped mid air.
"Battle Simulation Finished" the voice of Iron Man's program JARVIS spoke everything turning back into a normal room.
"Huh?" Laura wondered aloud turning her gaze to the control room wondering who had shut off the program.

Steve had to admit that any time that he had to himself was not good, granted he didn’t mind it but in being the boss of SHIELD he liked to be working, he liked to be able to his hands and work rather than do just do something simply because of the fact that if he was not working it meant that Earth was not at war or not ready for battle and that was something that worried him because of the fact that when they needed to be extremely busy that suggested that if Steve was slacking now that he would not be able to do anything about the problems when they eventually came if he didn’t know in advance.
Walking into the control room of the battle room Steve was surprised to see Laura working in the room, he had not seen many of the team work alone and the fact that she had seemed to be doing well on her own. However as he was watching he could tell it was not the case, as she was nearly crushed as he turned the simulation off before speaking through the intercom. “Are you ok Laura?” he said.

When Wasp heard the voice of Captain America through the intercom she wanted to smash her head into the floor.
"Just peachy" she commented her Wasp goggles allowing her to speak into the controls. The last person she wanted to see her smash into a wall was Steve Barnes not only was he Captain America but he was the director of SHEILD as well so in some way he was kind of Laura's boss. She got on her knees pushing herself to her feet dusting herself off. Her costume was a perfect replica of her mothers costume. Her long auburn colored hair was pulled into a side ponytail then her Wasp goggles were on her face like sunglasses.
Shrinking into her smallest size her wings appeared once more and Laura flew out of the training room and outside of the control room. She grew to normal size fixing her hair as much as she could before pushing the door open inside she found the Captain himself.
"Oh captain my captain" Laura said in a teasing tone with a smirk on her face. Steve was a good ten years older than her but they knew eachother through their parents. Laura's parents were part of the founding Avengers, Janet having led the Avengers at one point then Hank leading the Avengers Academy. Both of Steve's parents were Avengers as well and damn good ones at that.
"What brings you to the mansion? Not that I'm complaining or anything its great to see you again" Laura said with a coy smile on her lips.

Steve was glad that Laura was ok, they had seen much of each other as kids yet at the same time he had been kept out of the way, simply because of the fact that his parents didn’t want him to end up in the life that was extremely dangerous but when SHIELD had needed people he was not going to shy away but his parents wanted to keep him protected and that was what he had been, he had just been sheltered but he had still grown up around the people that his parents had been close to, that made it harder for him to kind of see himself as the boss as the people he was above had also been his friends.
He and Laura had always seemed to get on, despite the fact that he was older but also his mom and dad had always been pretty serious so he had never really been a kid, simply because of the fact that he had always wanted to be Captain America, even though really Steve Rogers’ kids would have more of a claim to the title he had been glad when he had been able to take the title for himself if he was being honest. That was because of the fact that he had planned to be Captain America like his father was since he had been a young child and now that it was the case was something that he was proud of and he felt that he should have been. When Laura came into the room Steve couldn’t help but roll his eyes at her comment because of the fact that he found it a little childish if he was honest but he knew that she was only joking.
“I was in the area and I thought that I would stop in,” he said with a grin “maybe drop in on my favourite member of the avengers you got a problem with that?”

"Well sorry but your favorite Avenger Hawkeye is out at the moment I'm afraid you'll have to settle for me" Laura joked winking at Steve playfully. She was happy to see Steve to be honest he wasn't all that sore on the eyesight but he was the head of SHEILD so she figured he would be pretty busy and wasn't sure how long she would have him with her. To be honest Laura did have a bit of a crush on the son of the former Winter Soldier and Black Widow but with Steve looking the way he did and how she had a thing for older men she couldn't be really blamed either. But her crush was just a crush Steve was probably to busy for a social life.
"So how have you been Steve did you miss me? I'm pretty sure you missed me I'd miss me if I hadn't seen myself as long as you have" Laura said changing into the size of a half inch wasp flying around Steve's head playfully asking questions. Finally she stopped flying in front of the super soldier but stayed in her tiny size. Often she liked being this height it made everything so different almost surreal.
While she waited for Steve to give her a reaction she realized that she did miss hanging out with Steve sure by the time she was ten he was already 20 but back then he had looked out for her and even took care of her when Hank was going through his breakdowns. She couldn't recall if he was one of the people who was against Laura going back to move with Hank but that didn't matter now. She had turned out fine with little to no scars from her time with her father.
