CHAPTER ONE

"What exactly happened?" Nick Fury asked the agent standing next to him.

"That's just it, sir, we don't know," Coulson replied, walking in stride with the S.H.I.E.L.D. director.

"Morse, talk to me," Fury looked at Agent Bobbi Morse, the second lead scientist in charge of the Tesseract project.

"We don't fully understand what happened, all we know is that it began giving off minor gamma radiation waves, nothing to harmful," Agent Morse explained.

"Gamma can be very harmful, you should know, Agent Morse," Fury gave his best scientist a death stare, "where's Clint? Where's Agent Barton?"

"You mean the Hawk?" Dr. Selvig, the lead scientist looked up from his computer near the three S.H.I.E.L.D. agents." He's up in his nest," he told Fury, jutting his thumb in the direction of the special agent.

Slightly irritated, Fury gave a nod to Coulson, letting him know to leave, then walked over to Hawkeye. "Agent Barton, get down here."

Clint looked up to see Director Fury standing below him with a furious look on his face. Clint quickly grabbed his gun, stood up, and jumped over the railing. He landed with a soft thud, "yeah?"

"You were put to look over this project."

"I do better from a distance."

"Did you see anything?"

"Nope, no activity on this end."

"What do you mean, this end?"

"Well, the Tesseract is a doorway to the other end of space, right? So there must be someone tampering with it on the other end. Bobbi smiled, he has been listening to me, she thought to herself, imputing some data onto her computer, just as the Tesseract exploded with blue energy and sent a beam to the other end of the room.

A man stood where the beam had shot, Bobbi looked up from her place on the floor in surprise.

He held up his staff and proceeded to shoot a portion of the staff working on the Tesseract project. Clint shot at him, but it seemed to have little effect on the man, the man walked closer and closer to him, Bobbi wanted to scream at her boyfriend to get out of there, but she had faith he could get the job done, so she ducked, making sure the man didn't see as she slowly tried to get out of the room.

"You have heart," the man said as he placed his scepter to Clint's chest. Bobbi watched in horror as his eyes turned black, then an unnatural shade of blue.

"I am Loki, and..." Loki began.

"Loki, brother of Thor?" Selvig asked, standing up from his hiding place, Bobbi wanted to scream at him to, he would end up like Clint if he did something like that. Loki whipped around and stared at Dr. Selvig, and slowly walking to him, placed his staff on the same place on his chest as he did Clint's, his heart.

Fury, who was slowly making his way to Bobbi and the door looked at Loki, and began speaking, but Bobbi couldn't hear him through the blood rushing through her ears, that man had just turned her close friend and her boyfriend into something, and she didn't like it. Then she heard a gunshot, and saw Clint lower his hand as Fury fell to the ground, letting the briefcase with the Tesseract go. Clint grabbed the case as he walked out with Loki, Selvig, and the other man Loki had left alive. After they were gone, Fury stood up and walked over to Bobbi, "let's go."

Bobbi accepted his hand and stood up, "attention, Barton has been compromised, I repeat, Barton has been compromised and is helping a murderer."

As Fury and Bobbi walked away, trying to get away from the crime scene, they ran into Coulson helping with evacuation, "just leave it, and go, go."

"Coulson!" Fury walked up to the agent, "take Bobbi with you," he said as he shrugged her off his side. Coulson took her and helped her to the car that was to take them off site. As they were reaching the edge of the base, Fury asked what the situation was, no one knew who was still under, no one knew how many survivors, no one knew where they four men went, and Fury told Maria and Phil every man not working search and rescue were to look for the cube.

It wasn't until they made it safely away did Bobbi notice her head was bleeding.
