For clarification, the scientist is not Tony. Enjoy!

Prologue

Her agonizing screams echoed through the laboratory. The scientist winced at the volume. His assistants restrained her to the bed and he took hold of her arm, the needle in his hand aimed at the prominent vein in her pale arm.

As the needle was inserted into her small arm, she trashed in the small white hospital type bed as much as the restraints allowed her.

"Tony, help me. Tony! TONY! HELP ME!" She repetitively screamed until the bottle full of the mixture inserted through the needle was empty.

She grew quiet and stopped moving as she her breathing began to even. The scientist observed her, analyzing the results of the injection. Her face was expressionless as she started to sit up.

The scientist wrote his observations in his notebook and he looked up once more.

There was blood on the walls and his assistants motionless on the floor. The little girl stood with blood on her yellow sundress.

"I want to go home." Her childlike voice called out to him. He turned and sprinted towards the door, but something blocked him, it felt like a wall. The scientist couldn't see it, nor feel it.

"I want to go HOME!" She screamed and he felt immense pain inside of his body like nothing he had ever felt before. He then fell on the floor, like his assistants, motionless.

Tears were streaming down her face as she sat down on the floor. She heard a crash in the distance and she scooted towards the corner and hid behind the bed. The door crashed open and a dark skinned man stepped inside.

He scanned the room with his dark eyes and they landed on a little girl in the corner. The man strolled towards her and knelt down in front of her.

"Hi there, I'm Nick Fury. I'm here to save you." He said kindly.

The little girl gazed at him with untrusting eyes. She stood up, extending her right arm. With her long, jagged fingernails, due to her harsh treatment, she scratched his left eye.

He screamed out in agony and cradled his eye, trying to stop the blood flow.

"I don't trust you, why did your friends hurt me?" She cried.

"Those aren't my friends; my friends are here so take you back home to your mommy, daddy, and brother. They miss you, that is why they sent me." He said softly with the kindness he began with, but with more sincerity.

"Are you lying to me?" She said with a hint of trust in her eyes, but a small hint of apprehension still lingered.

"No, I promise you that I will take you away from here, back to your parents, back to your home." He smiled at her despite the agonizing pain in his eye.

The girl smiled at him and muttered a quick apology; she was going home. She could finally see Tony again and everything would be like before.

Well, almost everything.

And that is how Nick Fury lost his eye, to a little girl. That had to hurt his pride! Please review, I want to see if you love my story.
