Tony's POV
When Loki had suggested we go see her, Fury had given them all the longest lecture Tony had even heard about what they weren't allowed to do around her and a lot of other stuff Tony didn't listen to. He had actually fallen asleep.
After Steve had woken up Tony, rather ruffly he thought, Fury had led them all to the cell she was being kept in. No one said a word during those few minutes. Tony thought about how weird it would be for Loki since he was the last one if the cell and the situation was reversed. Tony was actually fine with Loki being here, believe it or not. He could tell the others weren't. No, Tony hadn't forgiven Loki for destroying New York and his tower, but it had let it go. Tony believed Thor when he said that Loki was a little sorry, but Loki would probably be better than Thor helping with Katherine. And Tony understood that.
When we had arrived Tony couldn't help but chuckle as Katherine was fogging up the glass with her breath and drawing a picture, in an extremely childish way.
When we got closer Tony could see that her drawing was a stick man with devil horns and a pitch fork. Above it was the name NICK FURY. When she saw Fury walk in she quickly rubbed it off with her sleeve and walked back in to the middle of the cell with her hands behind her back as if saying I didn't do nothing. A defiant grin spread across her face. Tony was already forming pranks for them to do together.
That is if fury decides to let her join the Avenger, would he even consider it? He would bring this up later, Tony decided.
She looked tired and dirty. Her brown pants patched with drops of red and her blue hoodie had a huge red stain from her gun shot. Her skin was also very pale and she didn't look very well. Tony wondered why no one had thought to give her cleaner clothes, it probably wasn't to good in dirty clothes when you had fresh wounds.
The Avengers all stood to one side of the room while Fury and Thor stood on either side of Loki who stood directly in front of the glass cells sealed doors.
"Who is he?" Katherine asked pointing at Loki. Everyone looked a tad puzzled. Tony had forgotten she had not met Loki and it seemed that everyone had thought the same.
"Oh, yes this is Loki, Thor's brother." Fury declared. His voice, as always, was clean and sharp. His face showing no emotion. Tony saw as Loki winced at the word brother and Tony saw Thor freeze and take a glance at Loki cautiously. Tony could see they were still working on that. Without waiting Loki stepped closer to the cell peering in at Katherine.
"Where is Katherine's staff?" He asked slowly turning to Fury.
"Blah! Why does everyone call me that!" Katherine shouted, clearly annoyed, "Call me Kat, PLEASE. I do not go by that name anymore."
"Why not?" Tony asked. Out of the corner of his eye his saw Fury glare in his direction. He didn't care if he was not supposed to ask questions or not. Fury couldn't never stop him before what was going to change now?
"It's a horrid name and bad memories." She said slightly smiling and looking away from the group. But the smile didn't reach her eyes. She looked up suddenly.
"My staff!" She exclaimed a huge grin playing on her face.
Tony looked around expecting to see someone holding it but it wasn't until about 5 seconds later Tony saw the iron doors slide open and one of Fury's agents walking in with her staff.
How could she tell if was here if she couldn't see it? Must have some sort of connection or something. Maybe I can find some stuff out about her stick. Tony wondered. But before Tony could even open his mouth Fury glared at him.
"But before you have it back-" Fury started, but Loki snatched it out of the agents hands and hit the button to open the glass doors. Loki then threw it in and relocked the doors quickly. Kat caught it easily in her hands hugging it to her body, eyes closed. Colour instantly flowing back into her face as if she was never sick- uh, looking- at all.
"Hey!" Fury shouted at Loki.
But everyone was watching Kat. Now holding her staff her eyes opened and she hovered in the air pointing her staff toward the back of her glass cell. Instantly ice shot out covering the walls, top to bottom. Tony then realised it was too thin and soft looking for ice. The frost covered the glass with intricate fern-like designs spreading across the cell walls. Tony nudged Steve and pointed at Kat feet where as she came down from hovering ice lay thick where her feet touched.
"And some people wonder why my name is Frost." She mumbled, tracing her hands over the frozen glass admiring her work. Tony turned back to Fury who was glaring at Loki waiting for an explanation.
"Oh sorry," Loki chuckled, though you could practically see his words dripping with sarcasm. "But it will be no good for any of us if she doesn't have it." He said all serious again.
"Why?" Thor asked from beside Loki. Tony watched as every one of his team mates had to pry their eyes away from the girls art work of the glass.
"Well she... Katherine, or Kat, why did you not warn them of what would happen?" Loki asked. Tony had never seen this side of Loki before. Loki looked generally relieved, confused and amazed. And the way he talked to her was... kind?
"Because that was my plan of attack" Kat said, leaning on her staff grinning. Loki sighed and turned back to Fury and began his explanation.
"When she is without her staff for more than a day or two she -" He started.
"I explode. My staff is like a power outlet," Kat said dully cutting off Loki, "my staff is the way of me controlling my power and if I don't have it, well, all that lovely power builds up inside and then suddenly... BAM. Doesn't harm me, other than wearing me out a bit before and as I can see a few of you noticed as soon as I grasped my lovely staff here, I returned to my beautiful healthy self. But it can damage enough for me to destroy this pity cell and escape." She smiled sweetly. She was lying on her floating staff examining her nails, grinning as she felt all eyes on her.
"Whoa" Tony stated.
"I agree." Clint whispered from behind him. Kat rolled, turned and sauntered towards the side of the cell closest to Tony and the others.
"I want out of this cell." She demanded glaring at them. Tony noted that she could look pretty damn scary if she wanted to. Everyone, even Fury, shocked with this sudden change of attitude. She went from playful to annoyed to happy to angry. But Tony watched as Fury held his ground to the young girl.
"You will stay until I know you are not a threat to earth." Fury stated.
"Oh come on!" She threw her head back and let out a loud groan, "I have been alive longer than all of you."
She stopped and added, "Okay maybe not Thor and Loki but still, 300 years I have been here I'm sure if I was any threat everyone would know it by now!" She complained.
"She is right you know." Tony pointed out crossing his arms over his chest, "we would know by now if she was a threat. 300 years is a pretty long time even older than capicle over there."
"Though I hate to agree with Tony, I do." Steve grumbled partly ignoring Tony's attempt to rile him.
"And I'll answer any questions that you still have. I'll even play nicely, well nice-ish." Kat spoke up making all 8 heads swivel towards her.
Fury sighed, rubbing his forehead, "is there anything else Loki?"
"Don't piss her off." He said sitting down in a nearby chair.
"Fury," Natasha said coming towards her boss, "I think it's better for all of us if we don't make her an enemy. Though I hate to admit she did a pretty good job against us. I think if there weren't as many of us she would had successfully kicked our asses. She should join us."
Tony was surprised when Natasha defended her even kind of complimented her, sort of. Tony nodded along with the rest of his team as he heard a few mumbled 'yeah's. Fury looked at her as if she was mad, then Tony saw as Fury understood how true Natasha was.
Kat looked from Natasha to Fury examining their expressions. Tony saw that she was smart for not commenting. Fury gave Tony the unspoken command and he moved to the control screen where he unlocked the doors.

This week I went out into the islands on a yacht so I didn't get to update when I wanted to. Sorry. I got sunburnt so badly and now I can't wear any other pants than boxers. So I'm going to become the goblin that hides in the closet and will write a few chapters and re-read them fifty times so I can make them a least a little funny and update for you.
Please tell me what you think and if you have any ideas or things you want to happen in the story please tell me. Even if it's something like Tony saying something to Capt about his hair or some shit. I don't care. Tell me if you want to.
Also I love

Because all you guys are awesome and nice. Thanks also for everyone who is insane for reading my story. Also some of you guys who PM me are so sweet I feel like crying.
And if you really haven't figured it out I'm a chick to that one person who messaged me thinking I was a dude, you stupid. -_-
Just so that ONE person knows, I am a girl who likes to sit in trees or closet with my laptop writing random as shit with a tub of ice cream and only ventures out into the sunlight if forced by her mother.
And I don't give a damn that that is only part of the reason I am single.
