New Chapter! Yay! Sorry for the wait, I had to wait until I had internet so I could post this. I really had a lot of fun writing this chapter and hope you all like it just as much. Huge shout out to EAnIL and the guest for reviewing the last chapter.

I sleep fitfully, never really sleeping, but stuck between waking and almost sleep. With a frustrated growl I throw off the sheets and get out of bed. A quick glance at the clock and my frustration grows as it reads only six am. I decide to get ready to go, and the rest of the time is free to do whatever I with.

Once I am dressed and presentable I pull out my computer and open it. Quickly accessing the internet I log onto Facebook. I have so many likes and comments, as well as a few messages that I'm not really sure where to start. First I open the likes and find most of the members of Glee have liked it along with Darcy and Jane but I'm going to assume that it was just Darcy using Jane's account, but still it makes me smile. The shock though comes from finding Natasha listed there as well, albeit under the name Natalie Rushman.

Stunned I take a look at the comments. The first one is from Darcy, of course. "I know you told me not to, but I couldn't resist. The videos are awesome by the way. ;)"

I chuckle at that, I had an inkling she wouldn't do what I had asked of her, and this just plain proves my intuition was right. I decide to continue reading further and I find comments again from most of the Glee club members, with the exception of Rachel, but I was expecting that. I however find comments from both Natasha and Clint there, along with one I assume is written by Thor under Darcy's name.

I'm not quite sure what to make of Natashas so I decide to call her, after getting permission from Agent Coulson, of course.

The phone rings and rings, and for a long moment I wonder if maybe she is on a mission but then, amazingly she picks up, and I couldn't be more relieved.

"Quinn? Do you have any idea what time it is?"

I glance at the clock, "Um, not where you are, no, but I figured you might be awake and I needed to speak with you. I have questions and worries, and I don't want to bungle this like some idiot."

She chuckles softly, "Alright then go ahead."

"So I've been tasked with going undercover, and have successfully been asked out to coffee although that was entirely unintentional. Now how do I go about being an agent but still being me?"

I can almost see Natasha smile, although she is not here in front of me. "Quinn you are a new agent, you shouldn't worry yourself over things like that, just be yourself. You, as you are, will be able to get the job done. The fact that you are having coffee with whomever you are supposed to be getting close to attests to the fact that you are good at what you do without even trying."

"Thanks Natasha, I really appreciate that, hearing that from you makes me undeniably proud and happy. I've always admired you and your work as an agent."

After I say this the line goes quiet and I fear she has hung up on me, but when I look at my phone I see that the call is still connected.

I tentatively say her name, "Natasha?" worried I may have said something to make her upset.

"Yes Quinn, I'm still here. I can't say that your admiration doesn't make me feel good but I'm not someone that you want to aspire to be like. I have a ledger that is dripping blood, you see before I became an agent I was an assassin. Clint was sent to kill me but decided to spare me and introduce me into the life of an agent. I'm trying to be a better person, but I am still not deserving of your praise. If anything I should be the one aspiring to be like you. You are better than you give yourself credit for, don't ever doubt that."

Hearing Natasha sing me praises like this makes me pause; to know that she admires me makes my heart warm with pride.

"Thank you 'Tasha, you don't know what that means to me." Glancing quickly at the clock I see that it is seven fifty, and I know I should probably head over to the diner. "'Tasha I'm going to have to go, but thank you for the pep talk, it really helped."

"I'm glad Quinn, stay safe."

"I will. Love you." And with that the phone call ends, and I can't for the life of me figure out why I added that last bit, but I shrug it off. After pulling on my leather jacket, I hop on my motorcycle and head to the diner.

I am there before Darcy, although I'm not too surprised by that fact, as I am early. I get a table and a cup of coffee, which I load with cream and sugar, until it is as blonde and sweet as I like. I'm savoring my coffee when I hear the bell on the door to the shop jingle, and I see Darcy bound in the door followed by Jane and Thor.

"Morning."

"Morning Quinn, sorry I hacked your Facebook."

I look up at Darcy, setting down my cup of coffee, shocked that she is apologizing to me. "That's okay Darcy, I understand why you did it, just please don't do it again."

Darcy looks at my coffee as if she might steal it, so I scoot the cup closer to me. Seeing me do this she smiles at me sweetly, "No promises, but now coffee!"

She sits down next to me, while Jane and Thor sit across from us. The waitress quickly brings them coffee and leaves a thermos with us. I look at it questioningly, and before I can ask a question Darcy speaks. "The thermos is for Thor, he loves coffee." As she says this he quickly drains his cup, and pours another. I look at him surprised.

"You must really love coffee."

Jane looks at me and smiles thinly, "Yeah he does, a little too much."

As we drank out coffee I talked with Darcy about her work with Jane, with Jane's occasional input on various things that Darcy couldn't quite remember. I watched Thor and Jane talk and I could almost see their relationship unfolding in front of me.

After we finished coffee I headed off to the S.H.E.I.L.D base, knowing that if I didn't check in with Agent Coulson and Clint, they would tan my hide. Hoping on my motorcycle I rev the engine and speed out of town toward headquarters.

When I get there I pull my bike up, a cloud of dust flows around me. I bypass the outer guards and make my way to the command post, where I am immediately directed to Agent Coulson.

"Quinn, I'm glad you are back. Barton tells me that you have gotten close to your targets."

I can't help the smile that slips across my face, "Yes I have, and in fact I had coffee with them this morning. If something is to happen with them I will be there, we have plans to hang out later this evening."

Coulson nods, a small smile tugging at his lips, "Good, now remember if something goes down we'll have someone there to extract you."

I look at the older agent, my demeanor going cold. "Yes sir."

He gives me a few more tid bits of advice before sending me back to town. I know that I have to be careful, but I know that with S.H.E.I.L.D behind me I'll be all right.

Later that evening I drive over to the lab and upon seeing me Darcy pulls me into a hug. "Hey where have you been?"

I realize I don't have a proper answer for this so I come up with something off the top of my head, "I was working on some class work for a Mythology course I'm taking."

I notice Thor look over when I say this. Jane looks at me curiously, "All mythologies or just one specific?"

"We end up touching on all of them throughout the course but for the final paper, which I'm working on now, we choose one to focus on."

Darcy immediately jumps in, "What did you choose?"

My answer is simple, "Norse mythology."

Thor looks at me his eyes searching me, "Why that one, and not another?"

I shrug my shoulders, "The Norse Gods are not like the others, they seem the most human but inhuman at the same time. I admire the deeds and tales of theirs and think that today's society could actually learn a lot from them."

Thor inclines his head slightly, "A fine answer."

Darcy then looks at the group, "So are we going on the roof now or what?"

I smile at Darcy's way of just jumping in and dissolving tension wherever it may be. With that our group, minus Dr. Selvig, troops up to the roof, there we split of. Thor and Jane sit on the far side of the roof talking, so Darcy and I move to the other, talking of trivial things until we both begin to feel drowsy.

The two of us leave the roof, Jane and Thor still talking. I go to leave but Darcy stops me with the suggestion that I could just crash in her room for the night, so I do.

I wake the next morning, dressing quickly before moving out into the kitchen to where I smell the wonderful aroma of coffee.

When I get there I see Jane and Thor making breakfast. Thor wordlessly hands me a cup of coffee which I accept gratefully. Pouring cream and sugar into it until I have it the way I like it, I now sip it contentedly, sitting in one of the chairs at the breakfast table. Soon Darcy and then Dr. Selvig join me at the table, while Thor and Jane finish making breakfast. He sets plates before all of us, looking quite at home in the kitchen.

"Thank you."

Thor smiles grabbing the towel on his shoulder, "You are very welcome."

All of us eat our breakfast in relative silence. When we are all done I help Thor with the dishes while Jane, Darcy and Dr. Selvig talk over some matter. A loud knock on the glass doors has me immediately stopping what I am doing and going to see who it is. All of us, Thor included look in shock at the four warriors standing outside the door.

The sound of ceramic shattering hits my ears as , Jane and Darcy all drop their cups in shock. They open the doors and Thor rushes over exclaiming, "My friends!"

Dr. Selvig stares on in shock, "I don't believe it," he mutters.

I stare in wonderment and exclaim, "The Lady Sif and the Warriors Three." The brunette who I now know is Sif gives me an appraising look while the Warriors Three as well as Thor, Jane and Dr. Selvig look at me in shock.

"What I know for a fact that he is Thor, god of thunder, so it wouldn't be so hard to figure that this is Lady Sif and the Warriors Three." After saying this rather quickly I give a small bow to the warriors.

I step outside of the lab to try and get a call into Agent Coulson but for some reason I am unable to do so. I try a couple of times more but am still unsuccessful. I'm distracted from my call when a storm like funnel cloud drops from the sky toward earth, and Thor, the warriors , Jane Darcy, and Dr. Selvig all step outside by me to observe.

Darcy looking out at it says what I am thinking, "Was someone else coming?"

We see explosions and my heart rate ratchets up.

Thor looks at us, "Jane, you have to leave."

Jane snaps back, "What are you going to do?"

Thor walks to his friends, "I'm staying here."

After discussing what we are doing we all set out to evacuate people from the city. The sound of crunching glass and whining metal tells me that whatever we are about to fight has come to town. I stick to the edges of the street not wanting to get in the way.

I watch as Lady Sif and the Warriors walk down the street to confront the metal monster I now know is The Destroyer.

The first is swatted down by a flying metal fist, slammed down into a car and my gut tightens in fear for him but Sif jumps from a roof overhead and impales him on a long spear.

I for a moment think the battle is over, that is until the thing turns its body around and almost fries her but she jumps out of the way.

"Fall back!" I hear Sif yell but I see the Destroyer aiming directly for her so I run, and fast. The bolt tears through the street as I race quickly toward Sif pulling her arm and pushing her in front of me. If we lose her in this battle I know we are in trouble, now me on the other hand, I'm just a mortal.

I hear and feel the heat prickling my skin as the bolt arches toward us and I push Sif to the ground, dropping down after her but a searing pain rips through my side and I force myself not to scream. The Warriors Three rush to our side and try to help but are blasted back by another bolt of power.

I clamber to my feet as does Sif, and I try to ignore the warm wetness dripping down my side as we peer around the edge of a car. Thor makes his way to us, "Sif, Quinn, you've done all you can. Now go."

The two of us run from behind the car while Thor dodges the incoming blast. I stumble as we finally reach shelter behind a building. Sif turns to me then her brown eyes searching. "Are you hurt?"

I lean against the wall and nod, pulling my hand from my side shakily. I can see that she knows just how badly I am hurt.

"Why did you, a mere mortal, jump into a battle that was clearly not yours to fight?" She questions as she brings her hand to cover mine over the wound. I smile thinly at her, "Because even though I may be mortal I still have powers beyond that of a mere human and I could not stand by idly and watch."

Sif looks at me closely, catching me as my knees begin to falter. "You are brave Quinn, and any friend of Thor is a friend of mine." Sif helps me walk to where everyone else is standing, lending me her support and aid to keep myself on my feet.

I watch as Thor is struck down and I fear he may be dead until he snatches his hammer from the air and the battle rages onward. I lose focus as my wound is far worse than I feared. Sif glances from the battle to me and her face is marked with worry.

"You need help Quinn, you are near death."

I smile, "If it is my time then I am ready to die."

I feel myself falling into blackness and my last thought is that Natasha and Clint will be so mad at me for dying on them. I lose consciousness as I fall but my body is cradled as all thought leaves me.
