Izzy sat opposite Steve on the jet, flicking through a book of Norse mythology, while Steve looked through the files of the other people they were going to be working with. "So this Dr Banner was trying replicate the serum they used on me?" He asked, as Coulson walked over. "A lot of people were." Coulson replied, causing Izzy to glance up from her book. She was currently half way through a complicated page on Odinsleep. "You were the world's first superhero." Coulson continued. "Banner thought Gamma radiation might hold the key to unlocking Erskin's original formula." "Didn't really go his way did it?" Steve asked, watching the Hulk smash things on the screen in front of him. Izzy snorted, but tried to disguise it as a cough. "Understatement of the year." She muttered. "Not so much." Coulson replied, giving Izzy a glare. "When he's not that thing though, guys like a Stephen Hawking." Izzy chuckled. Oh Coulson. Steve's been asleep for like seventy years. He's not going to know who Stephen Hawking is. As if to prove Izzy's point Steve gave Coulson a confused look. "He's like a...smart person." Coulson replied, giving Izzy another glare as she laughed at him from behind her book. "I gotta say it's a honor to meet you." Coulson said, ignoring Izzy as she muttered about him 'fangirling' over Captain America. "I mean officially. I sorta met you, I mean I watched you will you were sleeping." He continued. Izzy burst into laughter, causing Steve glanced over at her, as she turned red. "I mean I was, I was present while you were unconscious." Coulson tried, to amend as Steve stood up and walked around him. "From the ice. You know, it's really, it's just, it's just a huge honor to have you on board." He followed Steve. "Your making it worse Phil!" Izzy sang, as she read a paragraph on Odin's eight legged horse. "I hope I'm the man for the job." Steve said, looking through the cockpit out at the ocean. "Oh you are. Absolutely." Coulson replied. "Jeez Steve!" Izzy added. "I'm English, and even I know Captain America is super awesome!" Steve flashed her a smile and she smiled back, before going on to read about Frost Giants. Whatever the hell they were. "Eh. We made some modifications to the uniform. I had a little design input." Coulson said. "But don't worry. I didn't let him get too out of hand. I designed some of it too. After all, I was the only woman working on it." Izzy added. "The uniform?" Steve questioned. "Aren't the stars and stripes a little...old fashioned?" Izzy snorted. "Your the symbol of American hope. If stars and stripes don't say American hope, what else does?" She asked. "With everything's that happening, the things that are about to come to light, people might just need a little old fashion." Coulson said. "Well done Phil" Izzy commented. "That's the first thing you've managed to say to Steve without sounding like an idiot." "What are you even doing?" Coulson asked, walking over to Izzy. "Research." Izzy replied. "On what?" Steve asked, sitting down next to her and peering down at the page. "Loki. Asgard. Everything." Izzy replied. "Where'd you get the book?" Coulson asked. Izzy marked her page and shut the book looking up at Coulson. "After Thor, I got interested. He explained the Nine Realms, but I wanted to learn more. So I traveled. All over the world tracking down every single last piece of information. Three of my suitcases are filled with books on Asgard and the people who live there. I even have a map that's supposed to lead me to a Berserker staff." She replied. "You've met Thor?" Steve asked. "She did a little more than meet Thor." Coulson replied, smirking at Izzy. Only to get hit by her book.
Izzy stretched as she followed Steve and Coulson off the plane. They'd landed on some kind of large boat from what she could see. But man was her bum numb. She shook both her legs, before catching up with Steve and Coulson. "Agent Romanov." Coulson greeted, as a redheaded woman walked up to the trio. "This is Captain Rodgers and Izzy Wolfe." He introduced. "M'am." Steve greeted. "Hello!" Izzy said. "Hi." Romanov replied. "They need you on the bridge. They're starting the face trace." She said. Coulson nodded and headed off. "There's quite the buzz around here, finding you in the ice." Romanov said, as she, Steve and Izzy started walking. "I thought Coulson was going to swoon." Izzy laughed and Romanov winked at her. "Did he ask you to sign his Captain America trading card yet?" Romanov asked, looking at Steve. "Trading cards?" Steve questioned. Izzy nudged him with her elbow. "They're vintage." Izzy replied. "He's very proud." Before she turned and watched a confused man as he turned around and looked at things. "Dr Banner." Steve said, walking over to him hand out. "Er. Yeah. Hi" Dr Banner replied, shaking Steve's hand. "They told me you'd be coming." "Word is you can find the cube." Steve said, though Dr Banner was looking at Izzy. "Is that the only word on me?" Dr Banner asked. "Only word I care about." Steve replied. "Dr Banner. Hi. I'm Izzy Wolfe." Izzy said, stepping forward and offering Dr Banner her hand. "Oh yes." Dr Banner replied, eagerly shaking Izzy's hand. "I've heard all about you Miss Wolfe." Izzy smiled. "Must be strange for you." Dr Banner said, turning back to Steve. "All of this." "Well, this is actually kind of familiar." Steve replied. "Gentlemen, Wolfe, you may want to step inside in a minute. It's going to get a little hard to breath." Romanov said, stepping towards the trio. As she said this loud clangs filled Izzy's ear and alarms went off. "Is this a submarine?" Steve asked. "Really? They wanted us in a submerged pressurized metal container." Dr Banner said, gesturing between himself and Izzy. "Two people who turn into beasts upon being angered?" Izzy added, not looking at all amused. The three of them walked to the edge of the boat and looked down, to see four propellers come out of the water and begin to lift the ship up. Izzy's hair flew everywhere as the wind from the turbine hit her, Steve and Dr Banner. "No. No." Dr Banner said. "This is much worse."
Izzy, Steve and Dr Banner followed Romanov as she lead them into what seemed to be the main control room. Lots of people were walking around and talking. Izzy's eyes fell on Director Fury standing in the centre of the room surrounded by screens. Romanov headed over to him, while Izzy stared around the room in awe. It was liking something out of an Alien movie. Ya know? The Earth command place. Steve headed towards the edge of the balcony, while Dr Banner walked around nervously. "Gentlemen. Wolfe." Director Fury said, pulling Izzy's attention away from the high tech gadgetry around her. She walked over to the table Steve and Dr Banner were standing by and smirked as Steve pulled out ten bucks and passed it too her, still looking around in awe. "Doctor. Thank you for coming." Fury said, walking over to Dr Banner and offering the nervous man his hand. "Thanks for asking, nicely." Dr Banner replied. "So how long am I staying?" "Once we get our hands on the Tesseract, your free." Fury said. "So where are you with that?" Dr Banner asked. Fury pointed to the side where Coulson was stood. "We're sweeping every wireless accessible camera on the planet." Coulson said, catching Izzy and Steve's attentions. Every camera on the planet? Wow. "Cellphones, laptops, if it's connected to a satellite it's eyes and ears for us." "Still not going to find them in time." Romanov replied. "You have to narrow you field." Dr Banner said. "How many spectrometers do you have access to?" He asked, looking at Fury. "How many are there?" Fury replied. "Call every lab we know. Tell them to put the spectrometers on the roof and calibrate them for Gamma Radiation. I'll rough out a tracking algorithm, basic cluster recognition. At least we could rule out a few places." Dr Banner said. Izzy blinked. Man, this guy was smart. Fury nodded. "You have somewhere for me to work?" Dr Banner asked. "Agent Romanov. Show Dr Banner to his laboratory please." Fury said. Romanov nodded and walked over to them, leading Dr Banner away. "Wolfe." Fury said, walking over to Izzy. "How are your combat skills doing?" He asked. Izzy shrugged. "A little rusty." She replied. Fury nodded. "Agent Jones!" He called, causing a small woman to run over. "Show Miss Wolfe to the gym." She nodded and Izzy followed the small woman down a series of corridors to the gym. "Thanks." She said, as the woman held the door opened for her. Jones nodded and quickly disappeared, leaving Izzy to take on a few punching bags.
Izzy shot out, diving in front of the beam of light Loki had been aiming at an elderly man who refused to kneel in front of him. The beam bounced off of her and flew back hitting Loki. People trembled in fear as she stood in front of the old man, hackles raised and teeth bared. Steve landed next to her, shield at the ready. "You know the last time I was in Germany." Steve said, walking towards Loki, Izzy next to him. "And saw a man standing above everybody else, we ended up disagreeing." "The soldier and the Wolf girl." Loki sneered, getting up. "The man out of time and shape-shifting freak." "I'm not the one who's out of time." Steve replied, as a S.H.I.E.L.D plane flew through the sky. "Loki. Drop the weapon and stand down." Romanov's voice filled Izzy's ears as a large gun popped out the bottom of the plane. Loki fired a shot of light at the plane, but Romanov dodged it. Steve threw his shield and it hit Loki, as people began to scatter. He then landed a punch on Loki's face which sent Loki flying backwards, straight towards Izzy who had gone behind Loki. Izzy turned and her two back legs shot out landing a powerful kick to Loki. Loki turned to strike her, only to have Steve's shield thrown at him. "Get them out Izzy!" Steve yelled. "I'll handle this guy." Izzy nodded and began to herd people away, picking up stray children by their clothes, but always keeping an eye on the fight between Loki and Steve. She picked up Steve's shield in her mouth and threw it towards him, only to have Loki deflect it and turn on her. He charged spear raised, and Izzy lunged at him with a growl. She raised up on to her hind legs and came crashing down on Loki. He kicked her off of him and she charged at him again, using her head to knock him through the air. Loki jumped and landed on her back, placing his spear across her neck and pulling. She bucked, trying to get him off as he tried to choke her. Suddenly he was blasted off of her and Izzy looked up to see Iron man. She gave him the wolf equivalent of a grin and trotted over. "Missed me Wolfy?" He asked, scratching behind her ear. Izzy had met Tony Stark shortly after Thor had left, and Tony had soon fell into the role of Izzy's big brother. Tony held out his arms, showing Loki all the weapons he had on his suit and Izzy bared her teeth at the Asgardian, as Steve joined them. "Make your move Reindeer games." Tony said. Loki raised his hand and his battle armor vanished. He held up both his hands and Tony retracted his weapons. "Good move." He said. "Mr Stark." Steve greeted. "Captain." Tony replied. Izzy growled as Loki sent her a evil grin.
