Angela Septin was just a regular genius that liked mythology and throwing knives and everything in-between. She had always loved superheros and the impossible ways they got their powers or their lack thereof. She always dreamed she'd meet one someday but not like this. She was in a strange plane after the incident in the lab. she had always been extremely aware of her surroundings but now it came to an even greater sense of the word. Her vision was failing but she could hear every thing they were saying. their breathing, and even to her own surprise their heart beats. A sudden pain rushed through her and she gripped a metal bar at her side. It faded and she let go in exhaustion. her grip had squeezed the solid metal into the form of her grip. She looked down at it and gasped at her own strength. Her eyes flared for a moment and she felt flames writhing in her. It didn't hurt as she thought it would. It only surprised her. Her vision was coming back, she still felt the flames but she ignored them and watched the nurses and doctors around her. They looked at her in awe. She detached herself from the gurney and machines and touched her face. It felt the same so what where they staring at.
"what's wrong with me?" she asked a man that appeared to be in charge. He was wearing a black coat and had an eyepatch over one of his eyes. She wasn't afraid anymore she could feel the power in her.
"nothing is wrong with you, except you should be dead." she looked at him with a look of almost boredom as if she'd already guessed that.
"I know that much. The radiation I endured should have killed me, immediately. I'm a scientist sir. Which, I'm pretty sure you aren't." she smirked at him.
"what's your name?" she hears contempt and concern in his voice.
"I think I should be asking you that, don't you think? My name is Dr. Angela Septin and I assume it's a pleasure to meet you sir." her voice is calm and a little sarcastic in this completely strange conversation. He raises an eyebrow. "my name, Dr. Septin, is Director Fury." he holds a hand out for her to shake and she takes it with both her hands with an easy smile playing across her lips. Her grip is gentle bit he can feel the strength behind it.
"I guess, it's nice to meet you director ,but as I'm only guessing you are a government agency and my family, friends, colleagues, and anyone else who ever knew me has been informed I've died and my body was destroyed in an explosion." she smirked at the startled director.
" y-yes that is exactly what has happened Doctor.I'm sorry but it had to be done." Fury took a step back at her sudden burst of laughter and frowned even more.
"Director those are both lies and WE both know it, but right now my regular life is officially over would you mind telling me. Why. You. Fucking. Did It" she snarled the last part out. "the gamma radiation you were exposed to has already affected a few people before you for better or for worse. You of all people should be aware of that." she nodded. " I believe it was a certain Banner and a wonderfully patriotic man from the forties named Steve Rodgers a.k.a Captain America. Don't bother asking me questions about how I know this. You should already know Mr. Fury." Fury closed his mouth and lowered his raised finger when he was about to reject but shrugged and nodded.
" well you were either going to die or we'd have another super on our hands. We are offering you a job Angela here at S.H.I.E.L.D. You will be trained for anything and everything and you can still work in a lab if you so wish. So what do you say Dr. Septin?"
" I don't have much choice Mr. Fury so I'll take that job offer because I've got nothing else to turn to." the air seemed to get colder as she stared him down. The nurses and doctors had left a long time ago leaving the two alone.
" good, thank you for your understanding Angela. I know we'll get a long finely." He turned and set his hand on the door knob before she spoke to him again.
"you owe me a life director and I plan on getting it back even if I have to wait a thousand years. I'm going to get it. You. Owe. Me Fury and I intend on getting payment." she growls after him. On the inside he cringes but on the outside he's as calm as the moment he walked in. "Count on it Doctor." he looked back to see the green flames in her eyes that replaced the cool brown with anger. Never look back Fury he thought to himself.
