Ch. 2 Unexpected surprise

Her eyes were wide and round as she looked on.

There were so many people but they were all arguing so loudly it was hard to concentrate on just one. She wasn't sure what was going on but Kagome was almost certain it had something to do with the dark haired man who was standing silently behind the very tall blonde one.

They all seemed as if they wanted to kill him. All she could say was that this wasn't what

she had thought was going to happen.

They had had such an animated lunch after she had awoken, and then had taken a lovely tour of Jane's lab. Seeing as how Kagome had really wanted to visit central park afterward, they had taken the rest of the afternoon to explore the wonderful outdoors.

The miko was actually quite surprised. She and Jane were just talking about their families when out of nowhere the young woman's aura began to dance about her, making goosebumps rise upon her arms and neck, making her look around in wonder. There were no youkai in this era so what could it be?

Not but a few seconds later, a bright magenta light came crashing down several feet away from them nearly knocking them down with its immense power. Then a large golden haired man stood there, staring at them, yet strangely he was holding onto the shoulder of another dark haired male who stood beside him looking quite angry.

Then, as Jane inhaled and placed her hand over her heart in surprise, all hell broke loose.

There were so many people descending upon that little piece of green land, that all the miko could do was stand back and stare.

And now here they stood.

Yes, she was definitely not expecting this, or the amount of armed men that suddenly burst into the scene only moments later with their guns drawn.

When the blond giant finally spoke, everyone seemed to quiet down.

"I will explain, only put your weapons away friends. There will be no bloodshed here. My brother will do you no harm."

"Leave him alone! Move away from him, all of you!" Jane screamed, finally mobilizing and moving away from Kagome.

"Can't do that sweetcakes, he's brought the ice freak back. That could only mean trouble."

The miko looked around finally noticing who had spoken, and it was the man dressed in a metal suite. She couldn't remember his hero named but she did know it was a very wealthy man who claimed this alter ego.

A helicopter soon began to descend, making the miko's hair swirl about her face. She lifted her arm in an attempt to shield her eyes from the dirt and leaves that were hitting her, all the while watching a tall, dark man with an eye patch step out and walk authoritatively toward the scene.

"What is he doing here Thor?" he questioned, watching the two men intently.

"He is of no threat," the blonde restated once again. "I will explain once you put your weapons away."

"How do I know that?" the one-eyed man responded "If you ask me, he did seem like a threat…a very large threat the last time he was here."

Kagome wasn't sure what they were talking about, but the men who had appeared out of the great light had immense aura's. That's probably why the others saw them as a threat. But weren't they only human? She wondered. They looked very human after all.

Jane stepped closer to the blonde man, looking at everyone in a panic. "Please stop, all of you, lets talk about this, you know he must have a good reason," she ended empathetically pleading with them to talk before acting rashly.

Even if Kagome didn't know what the hell was going on, she wasn't about to let something happen to Jane -not if she could help it.

She stepped forward to stand beside the other woman, all the while a few guns were pointed her way.

The miko wasn't frightened, not too much anyway, seeing as there was no real way to defend herself against guns, but surprisingly she was slightly thrilled.

"What do you want big man?" questioned the red and gold metal man.

"My brother has recently been a great help at Asgard, however there has been some recent…developments and now he must accompany me here. He is also here with the Allfathers blessing. Now step aside & we will discuss this."

Kagome was getting tired of this standoff. Why didn't they just listen to this guy? She didn't know who or what they were, but she had come across enough bad guys to know when they were out to kill you.

"Listen to him," both woman called out at the same time.

While the one-eyed man only turned to stare at them both with irritation and surprise, he did seem to consider their words.

"Well there doesn't seem any point to standing out here or drawing a crowd now does it. However," he warned sternly, "if he so much as sneezes in a way I don't like, I wont mind putting him out of his misery once and for all. Is that understood?"

"I don't believe that's going to be necessary now," the tall, dark haired man added finally speaking for the first time, looking for all the world as if he was completely bored with the discussion.

Even though Kagome didn't know what all of this was about, as soon as she heard the man's deep voice, she couldn't help feel a strange flutter in her belly.

"We'll see about that now won't we," the black man countered. "Let's take a ride to SHIELD's headquarters."

"Wait a second, you think that's a good idea? Don't you remember what happened the last time he was on your flying war ship? We were all nearly blown out of the sky!"

"I know Tony," the man argued once more. "This time though, I think Thor has some things to share with us. Besides, I think if the King of Asgard gave them his blessing…well we should look into this a little more, don't you think?"

"I don't know Captain Hook. You better call for back up then. Have everyone on board just in case he gets outta hand again," the billionaire spoke up cynically.

After a frown from the authoritative man, he seemed to concede to his words.

"Put your weapons away…and call the rest of the Avengers, I need them on board, now," he commanded to an apparent assistant.

Taking Jane's queue, she, along with all those present did as the man had instructed. That was until he turned to look at her.

"Wait where do you think you're going? You had permission to stay here, but nothing more. Jane see to it that-"

"No. I am going with Jane," Kagome stated with a firmness that seemed to surprise everyone around her.

Jane only stared at her in surprise and even gratitude while Stark decided to add his own remark.

"Oh let her come for the ride Cyclops. She sure as hell doesn't look dangerous to me," he affirmed while looking at her like a new chew toy. "Besides she's freaking hot can't you tell? Oh wait of course not, you've only got one good eye. I forgot."

The miko narrowed her eyes and growled under her breath.

But before things got out of hand. Jane spoke up. "She's coming with us and I'm not taking no for an answer."

Giving him her best stubborn look, he seemed to relent.

"Fine, but if she gets hurt, its on you."

"Yeah not likely," the miko retorted.

Fury didn't know what was going on with these two, but they needed to get out of here fast. The Japanese woman was easy on the eye, however he wasn't sure it was a good idea to have her staying with Jane, let alone on board the ship. Nevertheless seeing as how Thor's girlfriend was quite stubborn and they still needed her scientific work, all he could do was give an affirmative grump. Besides, the way she looked at him made him wary, her bright blue eyes quite odd with her heritage.

This was definitely going to be very interesting indeed. Having the two gods on the same ship once again was going to bring everyone together once more.
