Marvels Strongest Father

Chapter 21 - Small Jungle

"Umm I'm a cat person," I said with an awkward smile

Everyone just stared at me blankly not the slightest bit amused by my answer.

"Would you accept it if I said they were strays that I graciously took in?" I said

"There's a very big difference between a stray cat and a wild animal" Said Natasha

"Okay you got me, we visited a jungle and well, Umm Rose wanted to keep it so I brought it home. Now that I've said it out loud it sounds very unreasonable" I said

"Charlotte, I do not agree to you having such an irresponsible man as your boyfriend," Said Derek

"What you talking about dad, Theodore and I only met three days ago our relationship is only friends," Said Charlotte frustratedly

"Derek stop nagging Charlotte. I think Theodore is a fine young man and I believe Charlotte can help him be more responsible" Said Sarah while nodding and looking me up and down.

"Stop it, Mom we're just friends. Sorry Theodore" Said Charlotte

"Nah it fine" I then turn to Derek and Sarah "Mr and Mrs Heart please don't misunderstand your daughter and I really are just friends"

"Good," Said Derek

"Okay, so can we get to how you're able to own a tiger or you just rich" Said Sarah

I really didn't care if they know about my powers. This world their exist mutants that most people know as it was televised on what the X gene was. So with that in mind, I told them "I can teleport but before you jump to conclusions I'm not a mutant"

"What are the limitation to it," Said Derek out of interest

"None really from what I can tell. . . " As I was beginning to explain Charlotte cuts me off

"Theodore! Are those tigers actually wild animals from a real jungle and are they now alone with our daughters" Charlotte said angrily as she thought I got them from a zoo

Everyone was looking at me with a very shocked face and disgust in their eyes this was especially visible on Clint and Derek's

"Calm down, Rose and I have already tamed them, look I'll show you," I said before snapping my fingers to teleport everyone into the garden.

Everyone then appeared in the garden but I forgot that everyone was sat on the chairs so when they appeared they fell on their buŧŧs.

"Ouch," said The Heart family while the shield agents managed to brace themselves.

"Can you at least warn us" Said Natasha spitefully

I look back and see the heart family rubbing their rear end I immediately apologized "Sorry I forgot that you guys were seated. But enough about that welcome to my garden"

They then looked around to see a miniature jungle that contained bright colourful plants, bushes and trees that towered of us. I take the lead and walk through to get to the other side where it had an empty space of grass and the kids playing with the Tigers. They were huddled up in a circle that left some space in the middle then Rose and Chloe began to sing.

"You put your right foot in

You take your right foot out

You put your right foot in

And you shake it all about

You do the hokey pokey

And you turn yourself around

That's what it's all about"

Then they did the it with their left foot.

"You put your right hand in

You put your right hand in

And you shake it all about

You do the hokey pokey

And you turn yourself around

That's what it's all about"

Then it was the left hand.

"You put your whole self in

You take your whole self out

You put your whole self in

You do the hokey pokey

And you turn yourself around

That's what it's all about"

The image of two toddlers and two tigers following the song perfectly left everyone, including myself to be dumbfounded. Even though the S.H.I.EL.D agents have seen a lot of things but they've never seen two kids teach tigers the hokey pokey.

'Okay now I'm certain Rose might have an ability that makes animals friendly and smart'

"Hey Dad do you want to play" Said Rose excitedly

"No, it's fine but try not to get yourself dirty as we'll be having dinner soon," I said

"Okay daddy I won't get dirty" Said Rose

"Mommy, grandpa, grandma come to play," Said Chloe while hugging Tee

"Hey Sonya can you save the security footage of them playing to the family album," I said quickly as I really wanted to immortalise the moment.

"Already done it," Said, Sonya smugly from my phone.

"Thanks," I said

I then felt someone poke my side and say "Umm can I go pet the tigers"

I look to my left and see Jennifer stare at the Tigers with an enthusiastic face. I nod, to which she bolted at Momma Tee and began petting, hugging and rub her cheeks on its fur.

"Bad Aunty, you have to ask to play" Said Rose while trying to pry Jennifer off Momma Tee.

Jennifer's face turned red with shame knowing that she unknowingly just stole from a child. She then pleaded "Sorry, Rose can I hug Momma Tee just a little bit more"

"Okay Aunty can hug but only a little bit," Said Rose with her arms crossed

I then look back at Natasha and Clint to see them give a tired sigh. This led me to believe that this wasn't the first time and so I asked "Is this a common occurrence?"

"You have no idea," Said Clint tiredly

Getting my answer I look back at the Heart family and say "See, they can longer be considered wild"

They blankly nod at my words while still looking at their daughter/granddaughter play innocently with the baby tiger.

Charlotte then came out of it and asked "Can I also get a copy of their little dance"

"Yeah sure, Hey Sonya can you send her the same footage," I said

"Yeah sure," Said Sonya

Then the Heart families phone made a loud notification sound. Pulling out their phones they saw a video was sent to them.

"Wow, that was fast. Who is Sonya by the way?" Asked Sarah like a nosy mother in law

Hearing Sarah's question Natasha's ears perked up. I noticed but didn't care much and honestly said "She an A.I that I built"

Saying that I show them my phone that now showed Sonya waving her hand with a pleasant smile "Hi I'm Sonya"

Natasha was taken back as she was now understanding that I'm not only strong but I might also be a genius.

"Can you guys do me a favour and not talk about what you saw today to anyone else?" I said sincerely

To my surprise The Heart family agreed, I'm surprised because Derek firmly said he wouldn't tell anyone. I then thought about it a bit and realised it because he understood my reason as a father. I know Natasha was gonna report it back to S.H.I.E.L.D but they won't tell anyone else as they like to keep everything for themselves.

We then head back down to the forefront where I took the S.H.I.E.L.D agents orders.
