A petite girl with long navy blue hair, in a half-up half-down style, with steel blue eyes walked into a conference room on the SHIELD heli-carrier. She was wearing a denim skirt, blue and red camo t-shirt and black wedge knee high boots. She also had a navy blue tail swaying behind her.

"Kayla." Natasha greeted.

"Natasha." Kayla greeted. She looked at Steve and smiled, "Captain, nice to see you, again."

"Likewise, ma'am." Steve said.

"Any luck with Loki?" Natasha asked.

"Sang like a canary once he saw my tail and claws." Kayla smirked. "He plans to unleash the Hulk."

"Kay, stay with Banner; Keep him calm." Steve said.

"Roger dodger, Cap." Kayla chuckled, walking over to Bruce.

"Are we just gonna ignore the fact that she has a tail?" Tony asked.

Kayla walked over to Tony and smacked him on the back of the head.

"OW! What the hell, ya crazy cat?" Tony whined.

"Way to state the obvious, Sherlock." Kayla rolled her eyes.

"Did you just insult me?" Tony asked.

"Nothin' gets past you, does it?" Kayla snarked.

"I like you, kid." Tony winked.

"Sorry to disappoint, but, I'm taken. Plus, you're not my type." Kayla shrugged.

"Not into handsome, funny, smart men?" Tony asked.

"Handsome, funny, smart, yes; Egotistical and self-centered, not so much." Kayla smirked.

Natasha almost fell over laughing. "She's got you pegged, Stark!"

"This guy got a name?" Tony inquired.

"NCIS Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo." Kayla lied.

'Of all the guys you could've chosen, why him?' Natasha signed.

'He's the first guy I thought of that's not on the team. Besides, I like him.' Kayla signed.


Kayla entered a med. bay room. "Nat, you wanted to see me?"

"I wanted you to see someone." Natasha stepped aside.

"Dad?" Kayla gasped.

Clint nodded.

Kayla rushed over and hugged him, burying her face in his chest.

"When did your tail come in?" Clint inquired.

"After I last saw you at Aunt Shannon and Kelly's funeral." Kayla said.

"Can either of you fly one of those jets?" Steve asked from the doorway.

"I can." Clint confirmed.

"Got a suit?" Steve questioned.

Clint nodded.

"Good. Suit-up. You too, Kay." Steve ordered and left.

Clint turned to his daughter, "He needs to get laid."

Kayla and Natasha looked at each other and burst out laughing.

"Did he just give me permission to have sex with my boyfriend?" Kayla wheezed.


Kayla's tail started to twitch as Tony fell through the portal. "I don't believe it!"

"What?" Steve asked.

"He's still alive!" Kayla exclaimed.

"How can you tell?" Natasha asked.

"My glasses are like Stark's helmet." Kayla replied.

"He's not slowing down." Natasha said.

Just then, Hulk caught Iron Man and put him on the ground.

"Hulk, please rip off his face-plate." Kayla requested.

Hulk complied.

Kayla transformed into a lioness and roared in Tony's face.

Tony gasped and his eyes snapped open. "Please tell me nobody kissed me."

Kayla, still in lioness form, sneezed, gaining Tony's attention.

"Holy crap!" Tony yelped.

"Relax, Stark, she wont hurt you." Steve said as Kayla shifted back to human form.

"Jesus fucking Christ!" Tony cursed.

"I was not aware you could shape-shift." Thor said.

"Only into a lioness." Kayla shrugged.

"And a beautiful one, at that." Steve complimented.

"You know I have a boyfriend." Kayla said with a sly smile.

"And I have a girlfriend. But, I know she won't mind if I do this." Steve lifted Kayla's chin and kissed her.

Kayla put her arms around his neck and started purring. "Nope, I definitely don't mind."

"No fair." Tony pouted.
