Isabella's due date was in three days. She and Tony had gotten her nursery set up in the Tower and Logan and Happy had even bought her a few stuffed animals, which had nearly brought Isabella to tears. Her mother had thrown a baby shower for her and had invited some of Isabella's closest female friends. Isabella was happy to know that Serena was very healthy and was in position for birth. Isabella was ready to give birth. She was having a difficult time sleeping and she felt comfortable from being pregnant. Tony continued to help out in any way he could. He massaged her feet and back and would get her whatever she wanted to eat or drink. Now, it was just a waiting game.

Tony was trying to be home as much as possible, but there were still times when Iron Man was needed and she was alone in the Tower and that was how she found herself when she went into labor. When her water broke she immediately called Happy and he rushed upstairs to get her to the car. They had a bag already pre-packed for the hospital. As Happy got her down to the car she called Tony.

Tony began to actually enjoy Isabella's pregnancy. Likely more than she did. After that first night when they made up it was like her sexual libido had gone through the roof. She soaked up his attention like a sponge and read baby books before bed. Tony had read several in quick succession as well and was looking forward to seeing Serena for the first time. He had the nursery decorated in gray and pink with gray and pink penguins. The furniture was mostly white and of the finest quality.

Tony was away when he saw Isabella's call. He and Logan were out on the Baltic Sea trying to rescue a US Naval Ship that had drifted too close to where the Russians were doing maneuvers. The russians believe it to be spying on them and they sent Mig fighters and a group of commandos to take over the ship. The fighters had anti-ship missiles and were intent on wounding the ship so it could not get away. the commandos were brought in to kill the crew and take over the ship. However they had not expected The Wolverine to be on the ship and fighting them.

Tony chased down another missile and shifted it enough so if flew into the water. This was the 4th so far but more Migs were on their way he saw. His communicator went off as he chased at another one.

"Uh...hello? Hello? It's hard to hear...Isabella? What's up babe?" He asked. He could not hide that his breathing had gotten heavy with all of the exertion he was under.

Isabella became alarmed when she heard how heavy Tony's breathing was and immediately her concern switched from herself to him. "Tony? What's wrong? Are you alright?" She then groaned as a contraction hit. Happy took the phone from her and spoke directly to Tony. "Hey Boss. Isabella is in labor. I'm taking her to the hospital right now. I'll call her parents and have them meet us at the hospital."

Just then Tony became distracted and one of the Migs fired their guns at him. "She's having it NOW?" he asked. "Ow! Oh that hurt!" He groaned and Happy smiled at Isabella as he covered up the phone a moment. Isabella was looking at him and had likely heard him exclaim.

"Tell her....tell her to take her time. I'll try to get there!" Tony said.

Isabella was incredibly worried about Tony and despite his best efforts to keep her from hearing Tony's exclamation she had heard it. She had Happy hand the phone back to her. "Tony, please be careful. I love you and I'll see you soon." She hung up and Happy called her parents and told them to meet Isabella at the hospital. She was checked in and taken back to a room for the duration of her labor. Her parents quickly arrived and were there as the doctor examined her. It was still going to be hours before the birth happened so Isabella hoped that Tony would get there in time.

12 hours later Isabella was exhausted and desperately wanted her husband there with her. It was time for the birth to happen and she was moved down to the delivery room. She actually began to cry thinking that Tony wasn't going to be there.

Tony had actually began attacking. After he trashed a dozen planes the Russians backed off. Wolverine had killed or wounded all of the commandos to man and Tony asked him to stay with the ship until it was out of hostile water. He flew back as fast as he could.

Several hours later, he had been nearly on the otherside of the world, he arrived. He landed on the helipad and made arrangements to have a scrubs for him at his arrival. He landed and exited the suit and Happy was there to put the scrubs over him.

"How is she? Has it started?" Tony asked. "Yes, she's in labor Tony, we'll be there soon," Happy told him. The nurses and doctors all looked at him once he came onto the floor. He knew which room she was in and he took a long, relieving breath before he moved inside.

Lorenzo smiled when he saw Tony and he gestured toward him. Elena smiled and turned back to Isabella. "See, there he is Isabella. I told you he would not miss this for the world," She said. Tony came up and kissed Isabella. "Sorry I'm late," He said. "What I miss?" he asked.

The relief on Isabella's face was evident when she saw Tony walk into the delivery room dressed in scrubs. He looked tired but alright. Isabella was exhausted and there were beads of sweat on her face and neck. Her hair was pulled back out of her face and was slightly damp from the sweat.

"Well, you've missed nearly 12 hours of labor," she told him and then a hard contraction hit. The doctor looked at Tony. "She's fully dilated at this point and we're ready for her to start pushing." The doctor instructed Tony to stay up by her head as she began to tell Isabella when to push.

They had agreed to try and do this el-natural. No epidural but with how much pain Isabella was in he wasn't certain if she would be able to do this. "Hows your pain baby?" Tony said. He had been instructed to ask that but at a much earlier time. He was trying to be supportive but Isabella seemed to be angry with him. As another contraction came he tried to help her push.

"Come on babe...push! PUSH!" he demanded. Her mother was there to help hold her leg and a nurse held the other. Lorenzo had excused himself.

Isabella was in a lot of pain and at this point it was too late for the epidural. For some reason Tony's question made her angry and she snapped at him. "How's my PAIN?! Imagine pushing a watermelon through your nostril and then ask me again how my pain is!"

She was so exhausted that she didn't feel like she could push anymore, but she somehow found the strength and willpower to do it. Soon, the doctor saw Serena's head and then Isabella winced and yelled out as she pushed out the shoulders. She then felt relief as the infant slid into the doctor's hands. Serena immediately began to start crying and the sound of her daughter crying caused Isabella to cry out of relief.

Tony ignored Isabella's outbursts. He figured she was in alot of pain and he knew she didn't mean all that she said. The labor seemed to go on and on. Getting the head to crown seemed to have taken hours. Hours of push and almost! And then it was slide back in. But then the head was out! And then one shoulder...and then before he knew it, Serena was being cleaned up a little though with the cord still attached, they didn't take her far. Her cry was LOUD. A good thing? He thought so. He squeezed Isabella's hand and kissed her forehead. "You did good babe. You did real good," Tony whispered. Elena beamed but even she looked tired.

Finally the nurse brought the baby over to her. "Skin to skin contact Isabella, is best," Elena said. Tony helped lower Isabella's gown and the baby...it looked more like a tiny gremlin, was laid down onto her chest. She was still mostly covered in goo and Tony let go of Isabella's hand so she could touch the baby. The baby no longer cried and her eyes were opened. She also had dark hair already.

Tony smiled. "She's beautiful," Tony said proudly. "Both of my girls are just beautiful," He said as he leaned over and kissed her head. Goo and all.

Isabella was anxious to hold her daughter. Any pain she had just been in seemed to disappear in an instant. She was so tired, but as Serena was placed into her arms she felt on top of the world. She very gently touched Serena as the newborn laid on her chest. She had stopped crying and was looking at her. She was healthy and beautiful.

After a while they took Serena and cleaned her up and wrapped her in a pink blanket. The nurse then smiled and approached Tony. "Would you like to hold her?"

Tony just nodded. As the nurse laid her into his arms and showed him how to hold her Tony seemed to relax...a little. He had been scared at first and then he wasn't as Serena appeared to be looking at him. He smiled and then whispered into her ear. He whispered so softly that no one was able to hear what he said. Serena yawned and then slowly her eyes closed.

Eventually they had to take her back to clean her further and to keep her warm. Isabella had had to deliver the afterbirth and they had cleaned her up to a degree. She was given new bedding, and a new gown. They also told her that she could eat when she was ready but Tony saw how tired she was.

When she finally drifted off Tony went to get a coffee. He sat there alone as he thought about becoming a father. He was still quite terrified that he was going to screw this up but he was also excited as well. 'I made her. No, Isabella and I, made her...together,' he told himself. Holding Serena for the first time had affected him greatly. The love he felt for her. His need to protect her had bloomed inside of him. As did his love for Isabella. After a while he had moved a chair up next to her bedside. He sipped on his coffee as he thought about the logistics of finding Captain America.
