"What in the world happened to your classroom!?" The dean was yelling as he walked without knocking into Lillianna's office only a few minutes after she had.
"It wasn't my fault Thor was a lot harder to force out that the average spy." Lillianna had hoped for time to come up with a way to explain things that wouldn't make her sound hallucinogenic but to her relief the dean took what she said at face value believing every word.
"Thor? What did he want?"
"Well earlier when he came into my office, he accused me of terrorism, but then after apparently checking my alibi, he interrupted my class to ask for my help."
"And you didn't agree to help him."
"No! I've told you I'm not a hero, I don't do things like that. I would also appreciate if you would stop giving out my office phone number too; I've had to unplug it there have been so many calls from people needing a hero."
"When are you going to start listening? You are supposed to be a genius but god are you dense. You're wasting your life. You have this amazing gift and you could be doing so much good with it, but instead you're cooped up in here. If I could do what you could, even old as I am, I would be out of here, reporting for duty before you could say superhero."
"That just shows how unhappy you are with your life. I love it here I have everything I've ever wanted. I—"
"You're happy? You have no family, no friends, a boyfriend that wont leave the city for you. You spend your life lying to yourself. You say your happy but your not. Ask any of the other professors, even some of your students, it's obvious, you're the only one who can't see it." He turned and stormed out of her office, slamming the door behind him.
Shortly after he left, the phone on Lillianna's desk (which she thought she had unplugged) rang just as she sat down. Surprised she picked it up.
"Hello?"
"How would you like no one to bother you ever again?" a cool deep voice rolled out of the receiver.
"Who are you? How did you get this number?"
"I hear you put up a good fight for Thor. How would you like to join me? I could make all your wildest dreams come true. You could be Dean, if you wanted, own your own University. All you would have to do is play my little game. It's quite simple really; there is only one rule. The Avengers lose."
"I'm not interested" she hung up before the mysterious voice could object. Then she leaned down to unplug the phone to find it already was unplugged. She grabbed her coat turned and left. She had had enough excitement for one day. The next few days passed without incident. Most of her students knew not to ask questions, and the ones that did not learned quickly.
