(Sorry it took so long to update but hey its summer…anyway here is a little something to sedate ya'll while I'm away from the internet for a while. Enjoy!)

Opal interlocked her fingers and placed her chin on top. She had been in and out of interrogations for hours and finally the big man himself had come to question her. She met Nick Fury's gaze as her entered, not breaking her gaze until he sat down.

"Miss…well why don't you tell me your last name so I can properly address you." He said folding his hands on the table.

Opal smiled and cocked her head sideways, "It's just Opal. I cut ties to my family a long time ago. Though I assume you figured that out when you couldn't find any record of my existence."

"Yes. Well then Miss Opal. We want you on our team…" Fury began.

"The Avengers…your superhero boy band?"

"How did you?" Opal laughed and pointed toward one of the glass walls. A Small whole had been cut into the base of the glass. "You didn't expect me to just sit here and wait for you to tell me all your information? I'm surprised you guys didn't notice. Oh and you do need to tell some of your interns not to discuss classified information in the hallways."

Anger flashed across Fury's face but was quickly covered by his usual mask. "Yes. Now…what exactly are your powers?"

Opal grimaced, "Mine or hers?"

"Opal, you are not the only one on the team who is a liability. Dr…."

"Stop! I don't want to hear about anyone else. I want them to decide whether to tell me their powers or not…you may not understand this but sometimes powers and abilities are personal." Her voice wavered with every word but her gaze remained steady.

"Alright." Fury said a different emotion crossing his face, "I still need to know both your powers."

"I'm an elementalist. She…well I assume you've seen the tapes." Opal closed her eyes when she opened them Fury was waiting by the door.

"Well Miss Opal, lets introduce you to the team."

Opal slid into the room quietly trying not to draw attention. No one even cast their eyes in her direction, until Fury announced their arrival.

"Avengers meet the newest addition to the team, Opal." Everyone's eyes swiveled to look at her,"I believe you already met Tony Stark," Tony grimaced at her, "This is agent Romanoff," The redheaded girl from before gave her a half smile, "Dr. Banner," a Grey haired man smiled at her though his eyes remained focused on the ground, "And finally Captain Rogers."

"It's a pleasure to meet you mam." A blonde haired soldier type said with a smile. Then he made a huge mistake. Steve started to step toward her, his hand outstretch. Opal panicked drawing on her powers. A wall of fire erupted between the two of them then dissipated. Steve looked taken aback.

"I...I'm sorry." Opal stuttered, "Please…don't come any closer."

Opal stumbled back into the wall. Her head was spinning from all the eyes burning into her.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know." Steve mumbled as he backed away.

Fury quickly moved to a different subject, trying to calm the room down. "I expect you all to train every day until Loki makes his next move."

Dr. Banner raised his hand and Fury nodded, "Don't worry Doctor. You can spend your time in the lab. I don't expect you to train."

"I don't think it's a good idea if i…" Opal started.

Fury quickly replied, "I agree. You can help Dr. Banner in the lab." Opal and Bruce quickly glanced at one another.

Bruce broke into a grin, "Don't worry. I promise not to come anywhere near you. I can wear a hazmat suit if you want."

"No its fine…I just need to get used to….men…I'll just try to stay on the other side of the room for now." Opal smiled. She didn't like working with so many guys but maybe, just maybe she could get used to it. Just as long as she trained by herself.

(I hope you can survive for a few days but more importantly I hope you enjoyed this chapter. If you like listening to music then you should look up the song Freyja sys. By: CUL and Gumi. The heroic feeling of the song fits Opal well. Hope you enjoyed.)
