I sighed.

Never trust anyone. That was my motto. All you get is a knife in your back. People hold you down, get in your way. It's better on your own.

I looked up to the sound of a door sliding open. Four people entered in, one of them being Stark.

I regarded them coolly.

"Miss me Starky-poo?" I smirked.

He chuckled and winked,

"Bunches Frosty."

I felt a clenching in my stomach as I saw one of the men that came in.

Fury. I'd been avoiding him for as long as possible, it was almost like a game. I kind of enjoyed it.

I smiled, almost genuinely.

"So it seems you've finally found me director. "

I saw his eye narrow slightly,

"It would seem so Mila. However I think we really have Steve to thank for that" he gestured to the tall blonde man behind him, the one from the other night.

I frowned and looked at him.

"You should have left me in the ally, I would have been fine."

Steve looked taken back, shocked.

"I couldn't have done that ma'am, who knows what could have happened. "

I snorted and rolled my eyes.

"Did you miss me paralyze that man, or did something else make you think that I couldn't handle myself?"

Fury interrupted.

"Very interesting way you handled the situation there. I was not aware that you had legal jurisdiction over criminals. "

I narrowed my eyes. Trying to control my temper.

" And I was unaware that he had legal jurisdiction to rape and murder innocent girls. Those dumb ass cops would have taken months to find them. You know how many people would have been dead by then? Besides I didn't kill him."

Fury evaluated me carefully.

"You can take the restraints off of her."

Tony cut in. "She just paralyzed a man. How do we trust her?"

I laughed.

"Shove it Stark. And you can't."

"That's not very reassuring Icey."

"My name is Mila. Not Icey or Frosty or what ever."

Fury rolled his eye. I chuckled to myself. Eye. Just one.

"Guys stop. Rogers, get rid of her restraints. "

Steve moved to my side and started unbuckling my restraints.

"Yes sir."

"And Stark, she's staying here with you."

His eyes widened.

"When did we agree she was even staying?"

I answered.

"Since I've been playing this game with Fury for too long. I agreed that when I was caught I would stay. Still doesn't explain why I was restrained. But whatever. We know you need to be dramatic Fury."

He ignored my gibe.

"I'll be watching you Summers. Expect to be a working avenger soon."

The quiet man with the glasses in the corner looked shocked.

"Agent? Fury, what do you mean working avenger?"

I smiled brightly.

"That's right boys! I'm your new BFF!"

Tony spoke.

"Ohhhhboyyy."
