Hey guys :) This story has been a long time coming and I'm excited that I finally get it up here :D I started working on this the day after I saw The Avengers, but I didn't want to post it until I had finished it :) So, I'm going to try my best to get a chapter or two out a week until it's done. It's only about 20k words so I'm not sure how it'll work out into chapters but they'll most likely be pretty short. I hope you enjoy it and please review :)
Disclaimer: I do not own The Avengers or any of the super heroes/gods/billionaires in this story. Although, owning Loki would be pretty cool!
Three men walked down a gray corridor towards one lonely door that was blocked by two big men.
As they got closer the sound of something thunking against the door became louder and the annoyed look on the guards faces gave them a clue that it had been happening for a while.
The three men stopped in front of the door and nodded to the guards who nodded back and moved so that they could open the door.
"How long has that gone on?" One asked, referring to the thumping wall.
"Five hours, sir."
"Ah."
So, that explained why they were so on edge and irritable.
Agent Coulson entered the key code and the door slid open and the other agents entered with him.
The thumping didn't stop and now that the steel door was out of the way they could hear soft scraps accompanying them.
The room was not well lit and at first glance it seemed that nothing was in the room.
Once the agents' eyes adjusted to the dim light, they could make out two figures in the room.
One was on one of the two steel beds in the room, the small scraping sound coming from that direction.
The other figure was the one making the thumping sound. The figure was repeatedly throwing a small ball against the wall and the only thing they could see of it was its hand flying out and catching the ball wherever it bounced back.
Agent Coulson cleared his throat and both the figures paused for a moment before continuing in their activities.
"Ladies, SHIELD has an offer for you."
"A offer, huh? And what does this offer entitle?" One of the figures asked as the ball thumped onward.
"Your freedom."
The ball stopped and the hand that caught it froze in the light showing a power restricting band invented by the Stark company, before the whole Iron Man ordeal.
The room was silent for a while before one of the figures snickered and the ball continued it's patter on the wall.
"What's the catch?"
"You have to help us. You have to serve on the team to save the world."
The ball continued to bounce and the other figure stayed silent as it seemed to survey the three agents in their domain.
A chilling laughter filled the room, "You lock us up in this box…and then you come back and ask us to save you? Why should we?"
Agent Coulson sighed, he told them it would be tough.
"Because, we need your help. We can't do it without you two."
It was silent and the ball continued to be chucked at the wall, the force increasing with each throw.
"Give us a day or so to think about it…" A new voice said, a bit smoother than the other and Coulson nodded.
"Please think fast, we need to assemble the team immediately." He gave a short bow and took his leave, the others following him out.
As they started to leave the guards gave a sigh as the ball was thrown with a hard thump that made the steel wall tremble with the force.
Three days later Agent Coulson came back to the room and was greeted by silence, from both the guards as they opened the door, and when he entered the room.
"We accept your proposal." A voice said before he even opened his mouth.
He nodded, "We will be by to pick you both up later this evening. If you have anything you want to take with you, make sure it's ready then."
"Thank You. We will be ready."
He nodded and left. Wondering if SHIELDS knew what it was getting itself into.
So, that was the first chapter for you! I hope they won't end up too Mary Sue-ish. I know my writing style is a bit unkempt and at this point I had no plan for this story xD So, constructive criticism or things you like in the reviews would be much appreciated! I know that it takes a while to review, especially if you're not logged in, but I would deeply appreciate it :D Thanks guys!
