Prologue: Meet Me.
(Avyanna's P.o.V)
"Ms. Pierce please follow me," Fury, the director of SHIELD, stated gruffly as he motioned me for follow after him, I had been picked up after school to come here due to some testing I had taken. Apparently people wanted to tell students what their futures would hold based solely on test scores; mine apparently said that I would be a spy or something. I rolled my eyes and followed him none the less. "Ms. Pierce, please keep up." I rolled my eyes again but sped up all the same, he lead me toward a room labeled training and opened the door.
"Fury, if we're going to be spending any amount of time together, call me Avyanna," I replied as I looked at him. He looked at me with an exasperated look and motioned the center of the room. "What am I going to be doing?" I was told to dress comfortably, so I was wearing a pair of tight pants and a form fitted tank-top along with a good pair of boots that I could run in. I looked around the room and saw a few people scattered around the edges looking either scared or worried.
"We watched you during your gym classes after we received the results of your tests," Fury muttered as he looked at me, I was confused by his statement. "You're going to demonstrate your combat skills for me." I nodded and then looked around the room again, these people were different from my current usual opponents, they were much better. Fury was scanning the room as well before he had a few come over. "Do you want someone with weapons or not?" I gave it a little bit of thought.
"What weapons would I be allowed?" I asked as I looked at the small group of people, Fury shrugged and I smiled. "I'll start with weapons, then non-armed combat, then maybe power if you're up to it." He nodded with a blank face and motioned for a woman with reddish hair. "Can I use my own weapons?" Fury nodded so I reached for my daggers in my boots and looked at the woman. Fury pointed to the center of the room so we moved there. "Ready?" She nodded and we circled, each of us sizing up the other. I struck out to the right with my left dagger before being blocked. We went round and round for what seemed like forever, each of us had a few minor injuries, nothing serious just a few scrapes and cuts. Fury motioned a halt so we stopped. "What's your name?"
"Black Widow," She replied shortly as she looked at me, she looked a bit tired. "Pleasure to meet you." I put my daggers back into my boots. "Fury, can I go?" I looked to Fury and bent back to crack my spine, I watched him nod and the Black Widow left the room.
"Who shall face me with power?" I asked as I looked around, I saw a few people that felt powerful. "Anyone?" A few people backed away, seeming scared, I continued my sweep and turned toward Fury. "Do you have another petty mortal for me to combat?" His eyes grew wide. "Petty mortals." I smirked as I looked at him.
"Ms. Pierce, calm down and take a rest while I find an opponent for you," Fury muttered as I continued to watch him. He looked around the room before shaking his head and walking toward the door. "You'll have your opponent; I just have to make a call." He left before I could reply, so I continued to look around. Not twenty minutes later Fury was back with a smug look on his face, as was Black Widow. "Your opponent will be here if a few moments." I nodded and waited, I heard thunder crack, I became worried, no storms were predicted for the week. "He's not from around here." I felt my eyes go wide and began looking for an exit.
"NO! You said I'd be left alone!" I screamed out into the air, the thunder continued so I ran for the door, I did not want to be here with him. "NO, NO, NO!" The door had light behind it and it flew open. I ran toward the other door but Fury and The Widow blocked me. "NO!" Through the open door walked a tall, well-built blond man.
"Daughter, what have you done that made them lock you up?" The man demanded as he looked at me. "Fury what did she do?" He looked between Fury and me with a hard gaze. "Fury where is this opponent you told me about?" My eyes got wider; if he had been promised an opponent then he would get one.
"Father, please calm yourself," I stated as I came out from behind Fury and Widow. "I am not being detained either father, test results is why I'm here." I looked up at him and frowned once I saw his face, he looked as angry as a Bilgesnipe. "I am here because I apparently have the stuff to be a spy or something." I looked at him, hoping that he would calm down; I smiled at him and looked away quickly. "You were asked here so that I could have an opponent to use my powers against." I chanced a glance up at him and saw a look that indicated he wasn't mad anymore.
"Of course Avyanna, daughter of mine," My father replied happily as he clapped me on the back, my knees buckled a bit. "Weapons and powers daughter mine?" I nodded but then shook my head. "No weapons daughter?" I nodded again with a smirk. "Change to your armor then daughter and remove your weapons." I rolled my eyes but nodded my head regardless, I waved my hand over myself and my clothes changed into leather pants, a tight black long sleeve shirt and knee high leather boots. "Remove your weapons Avyanna." I nodded and waved my hand and all my weapons made a small pile. Fury's eye widened slightly as I reached into my boots and pulled out the other two daggers to toss them onto the pile as well.
"Where were you hiding all of that?" Widow demanded as she looked at the pile as well, I gave her a smirk most people had that reaction.
"My secret," I murmured as I turned back to my father, I looked at him intently, waiting for him to put Mjölnir down. "Father, relinquish Mjölnir so that we can begin our combat." He nodded and simply dropped the hammer. "Ready?" I watched him nod and flew at him; I attacked quickly as I kept my eyes on him. Moments later Fury called a halt to the battle. "Why did you stop us Fury?"
"The two of you would destroy my building," Fury replied as he looked at both of us. "You can leave now Thor, I have to speak with Avyanna." My father nodded and left the room, I turned to look at Fury with raised eyebrow. "I'll find you a place to stay."
-/- A Week Later -\-
"Tony, breakfast!" I called into the intercom from the kitchen, I pulled the pan of eggs off the heat and put them into a bowl, I put the bacon on a plate, the sausage in a bowl, I was toasting bread and getting glasses of milk and juice. "STARK GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE!" I let go of the button and finished preparing the meal, I hoped he would like the meal. It had taken a while to make. Tony stumbled down the stairs and into the kitchen. "Glad to see you're up Tony." I finished setting the table and then sat down. "I made coffee." He nodded and stumbled over to the coffee pot, poured himself a cup and made it how he liked it.
"Why did you wake me up before noon?" Tony demanded as he looked into his coffee like it would swallow him whole. "I hate waking before noon." I looked at him after looking at the clock; it was a bit after one in the afternoon. "And it's a weekend on top of it, why are you up so early Anna?" I loved the hang-over confusion of the next day. He sat in his chair as he sipped his coffee. "Could you make me a bloody mary?" I nodded and got up; I had learned how to make a few drinks living with him so far. "Thanks Anna." I nodded and handed him the drink.
"It's after one in the afternoon Tony," I muttered quietly as I served myself a plate of food. "Now eat up, and how many times have I told you… my name is Avyanna, not Anna." He nodded and put a hand to his head; he knocked back his bloody mary and got himself a plate of food. "Hope you like the food, I spent all morning making it." He nodded again and began eating, he took a bit of the sausage, he spat it out.
"What is that shit?" Tony asked as he drank his coffee. "Seriously Avyanna, what is that?" I looked at him with a smirk.
"Blood sausage, black pudding, call it what you want, I find it delicious," I replied before I ate some myself, I had come to enjoy it on one of my previous trips to Midgard. "Now eat your food, I need a ride to the mall." He looked at me with a questioning gaze. "My father won't let me transport anywhere… I'm going to need rides on weekends." He raised an eyebrow and let out a chuckle. I ate some more of my food and watched him.
"Go get dressed kiddo," Tony muttered as he looked at me, I waved my hand and changed my clothes. "Let me check my schedule and see what I have planned for today." He got up and rummaged around looking for something; he found it and looked into a book. "We're clear for the day, one question though, if you can magic change your clothes, why do you need to go to the mall?"
"Well Tony that's simple, if you go up and look in my closet you'll see the only clothes I can change into," I replied as I shoveled the rest of my food into my mouth. "I can only change clothes from what I own to what I also own." He nodded but still looked perplexed; he tossed his book onto the counter and grabbed his keys from a hook that came out of nowhere.
