Marvel: The Strongest Avenger

Chapter 3 - ∆Training Part 1∆

*Martha P.O.V Start*

It's been 7 years from the day Bruce was born, he is nothing but a bundle of joy, naughtiness and mystery. Three year ago Thomas and I, snuck into his room when he was in the kitchen accompanied by the maid and what we found can only be described by "Holy Macaroon..."

(Thomas)"Martha, how did he get all these books, I know I have been working in enterprises till late in the night but look, some are even high school level one's. Who bought them and can he even read?"

"I think Alfred might have a hand in it, you know how he spoils him, but do you think he understands them, there's an advanced guide on French and German and look at that one, wasn't that book you used in first year of College for your bachelor's and this is my first time seeing them, so where and why does he hide them?" I said.

(Thomas)"If he does, the enterprises can rest in good hands..." before he could finish he was interrupted with the bedroom door opening and giggling boy who suddenly stopped his movements and had look of panic and distress in his eyes.

You could see the boy panic and fall into distraught before he fell to his knees and start sniffing as tears swelled into his eyes.

"Honey, don't cry, we were just wondering why you are spending all this time in your room?" I said while comforting him as I slowly went to him, knelt down and put his head on my c.h.e.s.t and kept him in my embrace.

(Bruce)"I was scared...*sniff* *sniff* that you would think I bit of a wierdo..." he started normally but the last part was barely audible while looking down as he didn't want others to hear him but as I was embracing him I heard everything he said.

"Why would u think that honey? and whatever you do we will never think that" I replied while trying to put all my compassion into my words.

(Bruce)"Because...Because...cause I'm smarter than the rest of my peers and even though I didn't want to be isolated by them I was but then they are all kinda stupid aren't they, but forgot that most importantly I didn't want that to happen by the 2 of you, so...so... I told Alfred to buy them and not tell anyone about them as he delivered them to my room." he mumbled as he looked up into my eyes as he wanted to see what my reaction looked like.

"It's ok, it's ok baby, mommy and daddy would never think that" I said that as I comforted the poor boy who rarely had a friend his age. I think it's best if I find him someone his age to talk to, poor boy.

Thomas who was quiet for this entire exchange suddenly questionably asked the boy snuggling into my arms "Wait you telling me Bruce, that you understand everything written on these books"

Bruce nodded sliently while still not daring to look at his father while gripping hard into my arms.

"Look at me Bruce" I said while titling his head so we both stared into each others eyes, "Tell me the truth, do you really understand all what's written here?"

(Bruce)"Yes...No...Yes not all but most.. that's why I have these books so I can study them all, if I knew them why do I need these books" he mumbled.

(Thomas)"C.o.c.ky little brat aren't you? ok let's just say I believe you but then, there is an another question when did you learn to read and how did you learn French and even German?"

(Bruce)"I have my mommy genes so I obviously smarter" he said confidently as he got away from my embrace and stomped his leg. "contrairement à vous, je suis un jeune homme sophistiqué (unlike you I am a sophisticated young gentleman)" he giggled.

This lead to me giggling as well due to his confident but exaggerated words and standard French which did suprise me, but I continued by saying "Bruce you are right about both the things you said"

(Thomas)"Haha very funny mother and son ganging up to deal with me as I didn't bother to study French." which he said with a hint of ridicule which made the whole situation even better.

(Bruce)"Nichts, Papa, ich habe nur gesagt, dass du die zweitschönste Person auf diesem Planeten bist (nothing daddy, i just said you are the second most handsome person on this planet)" he exclaimed in German.

(Thomas)"You are right about that you know, but may I ask how you know standard German and French but most importantly who is the most handsome person in this planet" said while bursting into laughter.

"What you boys talking about?" I asked questionably as I didn't understand what they were talking about which lead me to tilt my head and wait for an answer curiously.

(Bruce)"Nothing mommy and daddy it's just I saw that you had German heritage while mommy had French so I just studied them so I can impress you both" he said slowly at first but quicker later as he reassured himself as he didn't want to tell his parents that he was a language major in his previous life. "And obviously the most handsome person in the world is me" he stomped his feet while confidently standing up.

"This is such a weird conversation, what's going on?" I mumbled while trying to figure why he had to fasten up his speed as he said that, which made me question my answer but honestly I didn't take much of it as I knew that a 4 Year old could not have a major secret. So I just thought that maybe he likes learning or something like that this the reason for him for studying it but soon I squealed with delight as I thought my baby born was a unprecedented genius, 3 Languages by the age of 4, Wow.

(Thomas)"Arrogant little brat aren't u?" he laughed while slapping the back of Bruce's head. "And good that you know about our heritage and I'm very impressed with you, you brought pride to the name of the Wayne family".

"Yeah mommy is very proud of you and I think I will give you a gift, so what would u like Bruce?" I asked as I was over the moon finding out that my baby born was a genius.

(Bruce)"Hmm....please don't punish Alfred as he was just following what I told him to do and can you get me a combat instructor you know, one who know a lot of martial arts and types of fighting" he said while making a begging expression.

(Thomas)"I don't think we are gonna punish Alfred but he will have to report to us in the future if you make him buy anything special and for your second request that's a no till your 10 at least!"

(Bruce)"Mommy..."he exclaimed while trying to put his best puppy dog eyes which literally broke me to look at how cute he is, he will be such a lady killer when he grows up I secretly thought.

"ok, ok wait till you are 7 and what else do you want?" I replied as I didn't want to keep looking into his adorable little eyes as it was melting me.

(Bruce)"A lot of books, all the books you can buy from science to math to engineering and business! and daddy what do u mean by special?"

(Thomas)"We can do that, special means anything a kid your age isn't suppose to have"

(Bruce)"I understand and mommy je t'aime plus maman (I love you more mommy)" he said in French and then he turned to Thomas saying "Papa, du bist der Beste (daddy is the best) he exclaimed in German.

"hurrr...hurrrr...did u hear that" I squealed with delight as I grabbed him and squeezed his cheeks, hurr I love him so much.

(Thomas)"hehe cheeky brat"

How does he dare to say that to my son, I take care of him tonight, I'll teach him a good lesson I thought.

Soon my little Bruce grew up and as he was homeschooled which ultimately lead him to continue having no friends his age which disappointed me but he was officially claimed a genius studying College level books when just he was 6 or 7.

(Martha)"My little boy grew up so quick but I have to teach him a lesson soon as he was playing both sides complementing me in French and doing the same to his dad in German, thank god Thomas told me about his German compliments, hurr hurr I gonna give him a good lesson when he comes back for ignoring me and being cooped up in his room all day."

*Martha P.O.V End*

Strangely when Bruce came into this world he gained eidetic memory thus gaining the ability to learn something almost immediately as his young mind was like a sponge absorbing everything thrown at it, and due to the freshness of his mind, he experimented and found new methods and practices. Thus throughout the years he started studying something to everything in every field he could.
