Late again for work, I was lucky if Fury didn't kick me out this time. I was one of the best agents in S.H.I.E.L.D. My abilities got me a space in the Avengers; everything was fine a dandy, but Fury didn't have much patience.

Now I'm running in the corridor while zipping my black catsuit and trying to comb my short and messy black hair and not look like a hobo.

I prayed that Fury was late, that when I opened the goddamn door of the conference room he wasn't there.

When I got there I slammed the door open and entered.

Just the Avengers where there.

Steve looked at me with a raised eyebrow, mister old man was very strict with the time, but he couldn't complain if he didn't want a kick right in his frozen balls.

Tony just sat there amused by my state; we were a team, an explosive one, literally.

Natasha was chatting with Clint; they didn't throw a glance at my direction.

Bruce was reading some papers, normal nerd stuff.

And Thor was just eating some cookies; he was the first to greet me.

-¡Christine! ¡My friend! ¿How are you this bright day? -I was sure his booming voice could be heard even in the other side of the helicarrier.

When I noticed that Fury was nowhere in sight I smiled at him and sat on the table.

-Oh well now that I know that Fury is not going to have my ass for breakfast for being late I'm much better…Where's he though? It's not like him to be late. -Thor offered me a cookie that I gladly accepted.

-He said that he had to go for someone for the meeting to start; we thought it was you…-Bruce said quietly without taking his gaze off the papers.

-A new member perhaps? -I asked.

-With you I think we have our hands full, but I wouldn't put it past Fury to bring another burden to the team, and also, watch your language. -Captain Asshole answered first.

Ok so Steve was being an ass, more than the usual, he never treated me like a teammate, the moment Fury put me with the guys a year ago the Cap just didn't want to know anything about me. Didn't know what his problem was tho, it's not like I did something to piss him off, or at least I don't remember, who knows.

My inner beast was ready to rip him to shreds, but I calmed down, even if I didn't like him one bit he was still a member of the team, and besides I just showered, and was too lazy to do it again.

Luckily for me Tony came to the rescue.

-Burden is the icicle that we couldn't remove from your ass when we found you Cap; I remember that Chris saved your life and ours more than one time so try to be nice for once.

Tony was an egocentric idiot sometimes, but at least he cared for me enough to defend my honor, he's one of the best friends I've ever had.

Steve just stayed quiet and didn't say anything else.

I was already 9am and Fury was still to appear. I kept myself distracted with Tony and Thor playing cards, well, Thor was still learning, for him crushing skulls was more easy that counting cards.

I was having the best hand of my life when the doors opened.

Fury was accompanied by none other than Loki.

That sassy little bitch.

Everyone stayed in silence, until Captain just had to act like the hero and stood up with his shield ready to fight.

-¡What's the meaning of this! ¡Fury explain at once!

¿Was Steve on drugs or something? ¿Or maybe he still had ice in his brain? No one gives orders to Fury and goes away with it.

Tony and I just face palmed, you can go against Fury, maybe even throw some shit at his face when he's being an ass, but not give him orders.

The man in question just stayed impassive as ever.

-The last time I knew I was the one in charge Captain, remember that next time.

Steve just tried to make himself small and put that kicked puppy face.

I cleared my throat to call Fury's attention, and saved Steve's ass even if he hated my guts.

-Director I think we clearly know that you are in charge, but one of earth's enemies is here, not to mention that he's unchained; maybe we can be worried a little about the current situation…

Fury focused his attention on me, I was used to it, and I didn't give two shits about that one-eyed glare, it's not like I've never received a sermon from him.

He sighed-Loki was sent by Odin, as an offer of peace, he's to redeem himself here, by helping us protect earth…

-Thus working in the Avengers. -Said Loki, his characteristic smirk on his lips.

Thor was smiling like a maniac; I always knew that in his eyes Loki could still be saved, he could be so naïve sometimes.

I looked at him-You knew about this don't you?

Thor just shrugged; I will get more information from him later.

Now it was my turn to sigh.

-Well, it's not like we have other option, if we want peace then let him be. -Loki's attention was on me now; his green eyes collided with my feral ones.

-And who are you supposed to be darling? I don't remember your pretty face from my previous visit here; trust me I would remember…

-*Oh so he's trying to be a total flirt…*-I was thinking in many ways to make his life here miserable if he stayed that way.

-The name's Ebony, and I can turn into a massive sabre cat that can rip you to shreds if you mess up with me or my friends, except Cap, you would be doing me a favor if you freeze him again, that's all you need to know for now reindeer games.

I heard Tony murmur "I'm touched." And I could feel my brain being drilled with Steve's glare.

Loki's smirk only got wider, but I could smell a hint of fear on him.

-Well now that presentations are over I'll put some rules that Odin requested.-Fury started-One, do not use violence on this prick unless necessary, that means that you can't beat the shit out of him when I'm not around. Two, no bullying, seriously we are a superhero team not some high school chicks. Three, he's to be watched every moment of the fucking day, see that he doesn't blow up earth or something. I think that's all, be nice and we won't have an Asgardian invasion. Understood?

We all nodded.

Everybody was glaring at Loki with such passion, and the tension in the room was palpable, I just stayed in my seat with a boring expression, really, I mean, I know that he did a lot of awful shit but wasting my time and energy hating him it's not going to change the past, and if he doesn't mess with me then I'll just stay chill.

-Ok then I'm outta here, and Ebony, make sure that prince ass here know everything he needs to know about this place and Stark tower, we are going to drop you all there for now.

When Fury left the room nobody moved a muscle, it was kind of pathetic really.

I just sighed and stood up; I walked up to Loki and offered him my hand.

-So I'll guess we'll have to spend some time together, don't worry about them they won't touch you if they want to keep their asses where they belong, follow me, ask only questions that you find necessary for your survival and for the love of all the gods out there, stop staring at my boobs! -I said annoyed that I was the first to babysit him, and the fact that he was being a prick.

He focused his eyes on mine again and smiled.

-Understand, sorry for the inappropriate ogling my lady, lead the way.

I rolled my eyes and started the tour.

I uploaded this story before, but since I didn't like some things I just thought it was easier to just delete it and fix shit, so here you go, if you like it leave a nice comment or something, I'm not saying you mustdo it…But if you did you'd make a crazy girl very happy 3

Peace~
