Hey guys, sorry I haven't updated in a while, I have been very busy. This is where we really get to the meaning of the title. In aspiration of Avengers EMH season two, I'm using my take on the Yellowjacket storyline. I hope you enjoy. (Oh, and by the way, I have a new Ant-man and Wasp fan fiction in production now, I'll upload it soon.)

The Coming Of Yellowjacket

He awoke in a daze, alone in a darkened laboratory. Everything was a blur, he couldn't recognize where he was, nor remember who he was. However, this place seemed familiar, as though he'd been here time and time again.

'But why?' he thought, trying to comprehend and evaluate his surroundings.

One thing caught his attention, a message scrolled across the monitor in front of him. He read it silently to him self.

My Yellowjacket, you have a destiny to fulfill. Those called the Avengers have taken advantage of you, and kept you from this destiny. You were born to purify and protect the human race, but they seemed to think your "attitude" was too much. So, they rejected your membership of their team. I however rescued you from them, allowing your chance to redeem yourself. So now, you have another chance to show them your power. You have already taken care of the one called Henry Pym, use this. I'd hope you at least have a faint memory of this man. He is flawed; he never could do what is necessary to save humanity. Instead, he ignored his most promising opportunities and attempted to illuminate me as well as you. His lack of courage kept him from proving his affection to the one known as Janet Van Dyne. You, however, possess all that he lacks. You will find that you are a skilled fighter and can use bio-electric blasts when in combat. In conclusion, you must become one of the Avengers, and report back to me whatever you may find. You will find me at this location.

A map appeared; it contained coordinates and an address as well.

'So, I'm Yellowjacket?' he thought looking around the lab. His eye was caught by the place he had awoken, a crashed bookshelf was left scattered across the floor. Shattered glasses and flasks containing various chemicals lie throughout the mess. He began to look through various drawers. They contained a few everyday objects, some tinker tools, equipment, and some files on experiments.

The very lowest drawer contained some papers and reports, but hidden beneath them was a small picture of two people. A tall, blonde haired man and a short, brown haired woman. She looked a little younger than the man beside her. Her blue eyes and bright smile shimmered with happiness as she clasped onto the man. His eyes and smile reflected her happiness, but he seemed nervous at the same time. With pinkened cheeks, he grabbed onto her and held her close. They seemed so happy, yet for some reason, Yellowjacket couldn't help but sneer at the sight of them. The man seemed so useless, so unsure… he was insignificant. But when he looked at the woman, he couldn't help but feel something, something he couldn't identify. Everything about her glowed radiantly before him. What he felt could only be thought of as a yearning, an emotional connection to her. With this sudden realization, he finally understood what he must do.

Rising from his current place, he stepped up to a cabinet. Inside was a note…

Fulfill your destiny.

A small box lies on the bottom of the cabinet. He opened it slowly and unfolded the contents. A black and yellow uniform with two large plates extending from the shoulders, a matching mask with antennae, and black rubber boots. A symbol was imprinted on the chest of the uniform, it was shaped like a bee, or as he thought of it, a yellowjacket.

He had finished putting on his costume, when he looked into a piece of the glass. Grinning maniacally, he walked out the door….

Janet sat in her room smiling at a vase full of yellow roses Hank had gotten for her last night. 'Clint is right, it is about time,' she thought to herself, 'I wonder if he'll go the whole nine yards.' She grinned ear to ear, falling back on her bed at the thought. Her and Hank, together.. forever, at last! Giggling slightly she turned to her mirror and pictured her dream wedding. She was soon brought back to reality by a signal on her I.D. card.

"Wasp…." a large crash was heard in the background. "We need you down here…." Another crash and a large zap sounded.

"Tony… Iron Man!" she yelled into the card.

"Ugh, hurry!" The line fell short, but Jan was already changed and racing to the door.

Walls split and vases shattered around the Avengers. Before them stood a masked stranger. He grinned noticing that they were struggling.

"You fools stand no chance against me, no matter what might've happened before."

Confused, the Avengers looked at each other, Tony shrugged before saying, "listen pal, I don't know who you are or what you are talking about, so would you mind enlightening on us on why you are here."

He simply laughed, "to start, you buffoon, names' Yellowjacket, that is one word by the way, not two." he smirked, continuing, "as for why I'm here, don't play dumb, I'm redeeming myself. You beat me once, but I'm back, and I've already taken care of one of you scumbags."

Clint spoke out, "well then Yellowjacket, if that is true, who did you take out?"

Laughing, he stepped forward and spoke bitterly, "the one you call Henry Pym." Smiling he looked at the shock on their faces.

Tony and Cap looked at each other, "right, and I'm the Easter Bunny…"

"I speak the truth Stark, I have come to take his place as an Avenger. If you do not oblige, you will most definitely face the consequences."

He saw Jan fly in, "perhaps another will re-assure you of my… accomplishment."

"Even if I don't believe you, I'm still going to take you down for saying it." Tony shot his repulsor, which he easily evaded. He then, quickly leapt at Janet, grabbing her before she could scream, let alone move.

"So be it, until you inform me of my membership, the girl is mine." he glared fiercely at each of the Avengers. Seeing Hulk snarl, he stepped back towards the door, "goodbye bastards."

The team stood helplessly as he seemingly disappeared.

"No," Tony sighed, "this is a disaster.

Seeing his distraught, Cap placed a hand on his shoulder, "We'll get her back Tony, it is what the Avengers do."

"Aye, tis' what friend Pym would've wanted," Thor seconded in a saddened tone.

"Surely we'll avenge him." T'Challa said deeply.

"Pshh, he can't be dead… can he?" Clint asked.

"Who knows…" Hulk said, "but when that guy comes back, I'm going to smash him."

"Leave some for me." Clint sighed.

"For now, we have to focus on getting to Jan." Tony said slowly recovering from the news of his friend. "I'm not about to let Hank down or Jan down, Avengers," he sighed, "assemble!"

The team made its way to the assembly room to form a plan.

Undisclosed location.

She awoke slowly, trying to free herself from her prison. Footsteps approached her swiftly, she could hear them. A strange man stepped forward, he smiled at her, admiring his prize.

"Ah, it is a pleasure Ms. Van Dyne, may I call you Janet?" he asked holding out a hand to where she was trapped.

"Whatever, now, let me go you douche!"

He laughed, "you have no clue who you are dealing with do you miss?"

"Exactly, you're a nobody, why on Earth would I ever fear you. I mean, that outfit is tacky, you act like a big shot, and you obviously don't know who you're dealing with. My team has pretty much saved the universe, so why wouldn't we be able to take care of you?" She glared at him, grinning slightly, but reverting back to a stern face to make a point.

"Well then, you are obviously misguided," he sneered turning towards a box in the back, "I assume you know who this belonged to?"

She gasped seeing Hank's helmet gathering dust in his hands.

"How'd you get that, is that where you got your powers too, by stealing Hank's- I mean, Ant-man's inventions?"

Smiling he stepped closer to her, "nope, I simply took care of that blundering, wimpy, pest of a man."

She gasped, "your lying, there is no way you could have-" she stopped, looking for a sign that he was lying. Nothing. Tears began to build in her eyes, how could this happen, why? She tried to hold them back, she didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of the bad guy.

"Don't cry my dear, you are much to good for that excuse for a man." he smiled moving close to her, "he was a failure at everything; his inventions, being a hero, and even with simply stepping up and admitting his love to you." He slammed a fist on a nearby table as he said it, looking up, he looked over Janet. She was still shaken up, but she just stared at the man in front of her… the monster.

"You should know that I am nothing like him," he pulled her hair back and looked into her deep blue eyes, "I can be anything you want me to be, I promise." He stepped forward, wrapping his arms around her, pulling her into a tender embrace. Everything paused as his lips locked on hers, she didn't know why, but she couldn't resist but kiss him back. His tongue slowly edged to her mouth, she opened it, granting him entrance. The two stood alone, lips locked, as time seemed to stop, just for them. It lasted a great deal of the lost time, only stopping to breathe when necessary.

Just then, a sudden realization was made, Janet recognized this man now. This kiss, it was so familiar, it was… Hank's. Hank was Yellowjacket, all along. She slowly pieced everything together in her head, an accident must've happened when he returned to his lab, he must have accidentally endused Schizophrenia. How she knew this, she was unaware, but it made perfect sense, it all did.

He stepped back slowly releasing her from his grasp. Why did he just do that, was he falling for the enemy? Or has he misinterpreted his mission, could he be on the wrong side, could that be why his mind was left blank, why he had no memory of his past? This he didn't know, but he knew one thing, he loved this woman…

"Well, I guess that it would be appropriate to start over, I'm Yellowjacket." he said, kissing her hand.

"Alright," she stopped and smiled, "you can just all me Jan by the way."

"I'm sorry if I scared you earlier, I'm just.. Well… confused.."

"I understand," she looked at her feet blushing, "maybe we could see about that membership one more time."

He smiled at her, "that sounds good to me, I'll try to be less aggressive," she saw him blush as he said the last two words.

She smiled back, "so, can you maybe get me out of here?"

"Oh, yeah, I really do apologize about that…"

"It is fine."

An awkward silence broke out.

"So, I have a plan on how we can get you into the Avengers."

She whispered something into his ear, the two smiled.

"Shall we then?" he asked, putting out his arm.

"We shall," she said smiling, placing her head on his shoulder.

Back at Avengers Mansion.

"So, is everyone clear on what we do when he comes back?" Tony asked pacing in front of the team.

"No, it isn't like haven't gone over it seven times now." Clint said rolling his eyes.

Hulk just snickered, but stopped whenever Tony shot him an angered glare.

"Give him a break guys, he just wants to ensure her safe return, I happen to appreciate his concern, it is a strong leadership quality." Cap said, placing a hand on Tony's shoulder.

"Thanks Cap," he started mumbling, "at least someone appreciates my decisions."

"I believe we have company." T'challa said non-chalantly.

The team readied themselves for battle, but were shocked to see a pair walk in arm and arm.

"Welcome back Ms. Van Dyne." Jarvis said as they entered.

"Thanks Jarv," she smiled, "gentlemen, I have a proposition."

The team looked at each other with shock.

"Jan, step away from the super villain, and then we'll talk." Tony said, mouth hung wide open.

Her lips pursed, "no can do Tony, I recommend we allow Y.J. here to join the team."

"WHAT! Are you kidding, do you know what he claims to have done."

Sighing, she stepped forward some, "yes, but he deserves a chance, and we do need a replacement…"

"But- but- Hank- and you- how can you-?" he paused, panting slightly. The team stood behind him still dazed by shock. "This makes no sense Jan!"

"Well then, you're going to hate what I have to say next then."

"I doubt anything could be worse than what you are asking of us right now."

She let out a nervous laugh, and holding out her hand, she said, "we are getting married."

The team stood silent, staring at the strangers in front of them.

"Oh, and either you let him join, or I leave."

Tony turned and whispered to his team. Jan stood aside and heard them angrily discussing possibilities.

"As much as it pains me to say this, fine." she smiled at his answer, "but, one mistake and he is out of here."

"Thank you Tony!" she ran up and kissed his cheek.

He blushed, "Jarvis prepare a room for Mr.-"

"Just Yellowjacket, I don't go by any other name." He said stepping in front of Jan, giving out a hand.

"Right… Yellowjacket…" Tony took his hand and shook it skeptically.

"I'm going to start planning, we get married in a month." Jan said giddily.

"How can you prepare a wedding that fast? That isn't possible!" he exclaimed

"I know people," she said, pulling out a phone, "It'll be at the mansion by the way, see if you can have Jarvis help out a little." She smiled and walked away.

Tony didn't respond just slapped his hand onto his head.

"This can't be happening!" Clint screamed.

The team departed silently, leaving Yellowjacket alone in the room.

He smiled slightly, walking towards the elevator that would take him to the familiar lab.

The month passed too quickly, Yellowjacket had proven to be a… interesting addition to the team. He was the opposite of Hank in every way… Once he tried to kill a villain on the spot. None of that mattered though, the team would hate him no matter what. So Jan really had to push the team to be good to him, even simply for the wedding. She specifically targeted Hawkeye, since he was the most bitter to Y.J.

Jan stood by Pepper, Carol, and Sue (Storm) in her room, looking into a mirror as her dress was being zipped in the back. She smiled as she twirled, admiring each part of her outfit.

"Jan, you look gorgeous!" Carol said, wiping away a tear. Jan stepped forward and hugged her.

"Thanks Carol, it means a lot."

"You really do Jan, but are you sure that you want to go through with this?" Sue asked looking at her with concerned eyes.

"Positive Sue, as much as you were when you married Reed, is that reassuring enough?" She asked smiling at her friends.

"Alright then."

"We start soon guys, better get out there." Clint said through the door. "You ready Jan?" he asked.

"Yes, question is are you?" Jan asked laughing.

"Not the least bit." He snickered as the door opened. Cap stepped up beside him.

"We are ready for you Clint, Bobbi is waiting for you," he smiled patting him on the back.

Jan smiled and stepped out, "what do you think?"

"You look beautiful Janet." Cap smiled.

"Agreed," T'challa and Thor said in unison, smiling at her, Ororo and Jane on their arms.

"Wow…" Clint said, jaw dropping to the floor.

"Wow is right, Jan you look great!" Tony said stepping up beside them. Hulk not far behind. Pepper ran up from behind and hugged her, then took Tony's arm.

"That is our cue," he said, lining up, "good luck…"

She smiled, as Steve put out an arm, she sighed deeply.

"Are you nervous?" he asked sympathetically.

"A little." she smiled once more, taking his arm and gradually stepping forward.

The ceremony went on, Yellowjacket stood at the top of the aisle, fidgeting nervously, surprisingly, Clint put an arm on his shoulder. "You're a lucky guy."

He sighed, "I know."

He was then interrupted as the organ began playing "Here Comes The Bride."

Everyone turned to face the aisle as the flower girl began to decorate it with bright yellow rose petals. His breath was taken away as he looked at Jan. She walked arm and arm with Steve, walking with poise and grace. She looked beautiful, he hair was draped over her shoulders in curls, complementing the snow white veil among her head. The base was a light pink flowered hair-piece, with matched her lightly shaded eye-shadow. Her eyeliner and mascara were a deep black, which lightened her deep blue eyes, causing them to glisten endlessly. Her dress was fitted tightly at the waist and torso, but fanned out at the hips. The ballroom cut gown, flowed behind her in a long train. The long, tight sleeves, ended at her wrists to reveal her pale hands, decorated with a beautiful nail job. The shade was also a light pink, but had deep pink roses littered across the edges.

He stood there staring endlessly, until she was right there in front of him.

"You look amazing," he said smiling from ear to ear.

"You look very handsome, even with the mask," she giggled as she looked into his "eyes."

The ceremony continued as usual, they exchanged rings and moved on to the I Do's.

"Do you Yellowjacket, take this woman, to be your lawfully wedded wife?" the reverend bellowed smiling at him.

"I do." he said taking her hands in his.

"And do you, Janet, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?" he smiled deeply at her, and smiling back, she said…

"I do!"

"Then, by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you man and wife, you may kiss the bride."

Yellowjacket pulled back the veil and locked onto her lips. The crowd cheered as he picked her up and walked out into the media infested streets.

Pictures, interviews, wedding pictures, and car rides passed as they all went back to the reception.

Everyone was having a grand time. Jan and Yellowjacket danced endlessly after dinner was served. She was thrilled, yet he seemed confused and saddened.

"What is on your mind Hun?" she asked as she stepped closer to him.

"I don't know, that is the problem," he sighed, "I'm sure we'll figure it out in time, together," she smiled at him.

Time passed, and it was time to cut the cake.

"Where the hell are the caterers, I want some cake!" Hulk screamed.

"Aye friend Hulk, tis' a wonder." Thor proclaimed.

"I'll find out, hold your horses." Clint said, stepping back into the mansion's kitchen. "Hey buddy, yeah you, where is the freaking cake? It should've been served fifteen minutes ago!"

"My mistake, we'll get right on that." the man said pulling out a grapple of some sort and tape. He through it onto Hawkeye before he could move, and taped his mouth shut. "Now, keep quiet, and we'll add the finishing touches." He laughed as he placed a snake inside of the cake.

Clint gasped, moving vigorously in attempt to escape. But, it was too late, they were wheeling out the cake already.

"Here you go ma'm, sorry about the delay, happy wedding," he hissed, bowing as he backed up.

Janet nodded and pleasantly began to cut a slice out of the cake when suddenly, the snake emerged, knocking her to the ground and wrapping itself around her.

"No!" Yellowjacket screamed as he tried to get to it, but the caterers stepped in front of him, taking off their disguises.

"The Circus of Crime, is here to crash this wedding, so everyone stay where you are, and give my friends your valuables."

"This is a super hero wedding smart guy, why would we stand down to you, you are out numbered, one hundred to five." Thing proclaimed, stepping forward.

"Ah, but we have your dear bride here hostage." he smiled pointing at a stunned Wasp, gasping for air. "And unless you want her killed, I recommend you do as we say."

"There is another way we can do this." Yellowjacket said stepping out, ready to fire at the snake.

"No!" Tony screamed, "you could hit her too!"

He stepped back, 'stupid' he thought to himself, 'what can I do…' Just then, the shock of Jan being in danger grew to be far too much for him, he just snapped. He grew to gigantic proportions, ripping his Yellowjacket costume as he did so. It had revealed his Ant-man/ Giant Man costume.

"No way," Tony said shocked.

"Tis a miracle," Thor yelled to his comrades.

"I second that," Cap said looking up with pure amazement.

Hank grabbed the Ringmaster, "I recommend you tell him to let her go, NOW!"

"Um, Esmeralda, you heard the kind gentlemen… Release the girl." he said frightened.

The snake released Jan of its grip, she began to collapse to the floor, but Hank caught her in his hands.

She quickly kissed him on the cheek as he reverted to his normal height. He removed his mask and stepped forward, grabbing Jan and holding her in his arms. They kissed passionately once more.

"Wait wait... wait," a dazed Clint said, stepping out of the kitchen, untied by T'challa.

"Wait is right," Tony said, "how did this possibly happen?"

"Well, some chemicals got mixed in Hank's lab, long story short, he got a giant sized case of Schizophrenia from it."

"But how did you know it was him all along?"

"And why didn't you tell us?" Steve asked from the back.

"It was when we kissed, and, I couldn't risk anything getting messed up, it could've worsened his condition."

"Right on the spot Hun, the only thing is, I swear somebody else spilt the chemicals. I saw a man in my lab when it happened. Besides, a man instructed me on what to do whenever I had first developed the condition."

"Well, we'll check the cameras right away then." Tony said signaling to Jarvis to prepare the Assembly Room. "But don't you two have to get remarried now, I mean, he obviously isn't Yellowjacket."

"Actually, no Tony, it turns out that no matter what name he married me under, we would still be married, changed or not."

"Exactly right Mrs. Pym." Hank said smiling at her

She rose up to kiss him, "I love you Hank."

"I love you too Jan." They kissed once more before deciding to continue the reception.

Not you usual story book wedding, but hey, they did live happily ever after, after all."

Well there you have it, the end of my first Fan Fiction, I've already started a new one for Ant-man and Wasp though, which is much better and much more exciting as well. Please review and subscribe. Oh, by the way, I don't own any of the characters of AEMH, thank you!
