Hello world! This story that you pressed on happens to be my own! So thank you! I wanted to write about The Avengers taking care of a child that has extraordinary gifts. And those gifts happen to be their own powers, and or skills. So I came up with my own character Lucy. So please enjoy, and tell me what you think! Oh, and please I am sorry for any grammar mistakes I've looked over this many time, but sometimes I can't catch them. Please don't think I'm awful writer when it's grammar. Thank you!

Disclaimer: Do I wish to own them? Every single one of them. But sadly I don't, and never will. I SHALL NEVER OWNTH THEE. I ONLY OWN MY OC(LUCY).

Chapter One: Lucy's Story

They all look down on the little girl who was reading patiently in silence. Her wavy blonde locks were delicately interlocked with braids forming a halo around her head. Her almond color eyes gazed the page that was filled with words. She only looks up to recognize their presence.

"So your the girl who has all our strengths plied up into you?" Tony Stark starts the conversation, "Huh, I imagined you older, taller, and well...Loki-like." All the other Avengers roll their eyes at Tony's pathetic ways of getting the girl to talk, because none of them could.

The girl shuffled her eyes back down to the book until Clint declared, "Thor, this is all your brother's fault."

The girl winced, as Thor spoke loudly causing her newly improved hearing to ring into her ear, "I had no idea to the whereabouts of my own brother, I can be honest to say I knew nothing of these plans." He gripped his hammer in aggravation of what his brother had done to the poor child in front of him.

The girl shut her book, but put in her bookmark to hold her place to give a sad smile to Thor. It was the most she had communicated within the fifteen minutes of them being in her presence. She wasn't necessarily quiet, but she doesn't talk the way The Avengers did she was use to signing.

Now were she was given their skills she had been healed of her hearing deficiency. It was hard to hear the own sound of her voice. "I didn't know his plans either, Mr. Thor." She spoke carefully, she tried not to reach up to feel her ears. It was so strange hearing everything, she didn't like it...It was becoming hard to stop from hearing everything. She scratched behind her ear involuntary.

Thor bowed before the girl who sat in the chair awaiting composedly, "I will not let him hurt you again, little one." Thor promised her through his shimmering blue eyes.

The girl turned sour by his proposition, "Though, it's not like I can remember what he did." Apparently, her memory was swept of her ever seeing her father's death, or the memory of what father was like to her. It was like this was Loki's gift for her not to see anything related to her past life.

She can feel her eyes flash a shade of green, dropping her book she apologizes, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Thor, that was me...i-it was t-the-" She tries to find the words to say or pronounce out, but Dr. Banner does for her.

"The other girl?" He asks, she shamefully nods wishing to disappear from sight, "I know the feeling." He picks up the small girl's book in which the title says, Norse Mythology, he ignores his concern for her reading choices to hand her book back.

She accepts it covering the cover with her lap so none of the other Avengers could see what she was reading. She motions with her hands, "It's hard." Almost all of them tilt their head confused by her hand movements.

Miss Romanoff smirks at her signing back to the girl, "You signed by mistake."

She blushed, and answer in a language they can all understand, "Sorry, I'm use to doing that," she scratches behind her ears, "at least, as far as I remember." She shrugs at them all, Loki had erased almost all parts of her lovely memories. Loki had took what she knew about her life.

To say the least they were all weirded out by Loki's choice of ten year old child as his plan B. That's what Tony was calling it anyway, Thor had promised that he would try to find out what Loki's true plan were for the youngling. Fury had told them all what he knew about what went down, and the girl was now telling the story to them now.

"Lucy, do you remember how it happened?" Captain America asked, before the girl could close herself back into her book.

The blonde, Lucy, bit her lower lip, "I promise I didn't know he was bad, Mr. Rodgers." She explains, twisting her fingers nervously.

Steve kneels down to her level placing his hand on her bony shoulder, "Lucy, it's okay, we just want to hear your side of the story." He gives her a smile encouraging her to speak.

Lucy nodded at him, now hugging her book to her chest, "I remember," She closes her eyes, as Steve's hand remained on her shoulder, "that he kept asking me questions about my dad's work, I told my dad about him. I thought he was another person working for my dad. My dad thought..." She reopens her eyes. Steve's blue eyes beckon for her to continue on, she blushes, "He thought is it was an imaginary friend..."

Lucy knew as much as who her father worked for, and what her father work had plans to do. Lucy should have seen the signs that Loki gave way, but he wasn't called the god of mischief for nothing. Tony scoffed, "Was dear old daddy shut in on the intel about Loki around SHIELD?"

Lucy finger twitched to sign back to him, but she stops herself, "It's strange his work is the only thing I really remember about him." She blinked at Tony, what did her dad look like, "Mr. Stark, he was dedi...didc..." She can't pronounce the words to form out of her mouth, she wasn't use to this form of communication through mouth. Harder words meant more pronunciation.

Clint tries not to smile at her as he corrects her, "Dedicated?" She nods sheepishly at him. Fury had told them all about how she was deaf before the serum was injected in her, so her skills in socializing were still at minimum.

Lucy hugs her book even more now as she continues, "Dedicated to his work, he didn't care about what went on in everyday life. His work was his life." Her brows furrow, "Loki, was interest in his work, but he was more concerned about me...That's how he gained my trust."

Natasha raises a eyebrow at this, "How did you communicate with him, since your hearing defect?" She asks cautiously, fearing that she may hurt the girl's self-esteem if she called her a deaf.

Lucy looked to the beautiful Agent Romanoff, "He wrote, also he was learning to sign from me," her brown eyes scan them all, "I know all of you won't understand, but I really felt he was my friend...Then he went, and did that." She spat out, she was betrayed by his actions.

Steve squeezes her shoulder tightly, "Lucy, do you know why he did this to you?"

Lucy knew it would come down to this valuable question, and she remember why too. It was like he wanted the pain to settle inside her, and to only remember that pain. It was like it was stitch onto her, "He said that he knew what it was like to be me." She licks her lips to pass the words out of her mouth, "An outcast."

Captain America tilts his head he too had read the girl's file, but other than being deaf there was nothing that made her stood out. He froze, his blue eyes gazed upon the brown eyed girl, "You're adopted?" Lucy head bobs, and Steve turns his head to Thor.

Thor speaks in a grave voice, "Did you always know, little one?" She nods, rubbing her eyes refusing to cry in front of a bunch of god-like superheroes. Thor moves to take the position of Rodgers, "Did you know my brother was adopted?"

"Yes." It was weak, and they knew she was about to crack, "I think he was planning on using the serum to his own ben...bena..bean.." She huffs out a ton of hot air she couldn't get one sentence across to them.

"Benefits?" Someone in the room offers to her.

"Yes, to his own benefits, but he used it on me..." Lucy looks helplessly at Thor, "When I told him I didn't want to take the serum, he got mad...I didn't mean to make him upset, honest! I didn't want to steal my dad's work, but he said it was for my own good! I-I didn't know, I'm sorry, I d-didn't know!"

Thor watched as she gasped for breath, holding in her tears still. Thor dropped his hammer down beside him, and reach in for the girl pulling her into a large embrace. She took to it immediately grasping onto the back of his red cape she closed her eyes to imagine that this could have been her father's embrace.
