What if Jake's mom admitted she blamed him for his dad's death? Also, what if when Ryan went into the bathroom to attack Jake he instead witnessed this happen. One Shot. No Slash.

SEQUEL TO: The Recruit. It has been one year since Matt was moved to Chicago after joining the Avengers. Now, he is called upon by Black Widow and Captain America to come with them to Helicarrier and help find the next Infinity Stone. It isn't easy going from making cakes to being a soldier... I DO NOT OWN AVENGERS OR CHRONICLE!

Set 7 months after his battle with Andrew, Matt Garetty is losing control of his powers, but the Avengers are determined to help him. Matt, however, doesn't trust them. There's also the problem of aliens hunting him for the Infinity Stone energy within his very soul. My first ever story so please review and be nice. I DON'T OWN AVENGERS OR CHRONICLE!

FIXED IT: This is a sequel to the Walls of the Rivalry so read that first! Ryan discovers Jake injured and unconscious.
