Come on Ladies
A.N. Hey! I'm sorry I didn't update perusal! Sorry! But here's a chapter! I was a bit busy trying to stop the Hulk from destroying my brother.
Not surprised that he wanted to destroy my brother, he is a bit of a weirdo and not in the good way. XD
MicroSpider XD
Once the fighting had ceased and the males had gotten back onto the jet, we returned to the Helicarrier, were Nat told me I should change.
She wasn't wrong.
Last time I just hung around in my She-Hulk suit all the male Agents stared at me; that is until Nick got jealous and 'accidentally' shot one of them in the foot.
It was kinda cute seeing him jealous though! We weren't even together back then either!
I put on my tight black American Idiot T-Shirt, black and green split leg skinny jeans, my usual long sleeveless leather jacket and my Iron Fist Timmie Chew booties.
I quickly put my hair into a messy fishtail braid, secured on my leather choker, put on a pair of studded leather fingerless gloves over my wedding ring and had my guns strapped into their holsters on my thighs.
Hurriedly I ran onto the Bridge where the Avengers (minus Stark and Barton of course) were watching Nick talking to Loki on the monitors.
I sat down and looked at the monitor.
Nick moved over to the panel, "In case it's unclear, you try to escape, you so much as scratch that glass."
He pressed a button which opened up a huge hole underneath Loki's cell; my freakout chamber.
"Thirty thousand feet, straight down in a steel trap," he yelled over the noise coming from the hole before ceiling it up again, "You get how that works?"
He pointed at Loki, "Ant."
He then he pointed at the button which would drop Loki into the steel trap.
"Boot."
Nick quoted the god of Mischief.
Loki laughed, amused, "It's an impressive cage. Not built, I think, for me."
"Built for something a lot stronger than you" Nick supplied.
"Oh, I've heard"
Loki looked into the camera through which we were watching the interrogation through, "The mindless beast, makes play to be the man" Loki's eyes glittered, "And it's beautiful half-breed daughter. You yourself have taken a liking to her haven't you Director."
He wasn't questioning.
He was stating matter of fact.
He knew how to get to me, how to truly piss off Nick if he needed to.
"How desperate are you? You call on these lost creatures to defend you," Loki taunted.
Nick moved around the cage's surrounding area, "How desperate am I? You threaten my world with war. You steal a force you can't hope to control. You talk about peace and you kill cause it's fun. You have made me very desperate. You might not be glad that you did."
Loki's eyes flashed pure glee, "Ooh. It burns you to come so close. To have the Tesseract, to have power, unlimited power. And for what? A warm light for all mankind to share, and then to be reminded what real power is."
Nick turned, "Yeah, well, you let me know if Real Power wants a magazine or something."
He walked off out of view leaving Loki in his glass cell to stare at the ground.
Back on the Bridge everyone was quiet, "He really grows on you, doesn't he?" Dad stated sarcastically.
Steve nodded in general, "Loki's gonna drag this out. So, Thor, what's his play?"
Thor turned around from were he stood at the top of the table, "He has an army called the Chitauri, that none of Asgard nor any world know. He means to lead them against your people. They will win him the earth. Return, I suspect, for the Tesseract."
Steve looked confuzzled, "An army, from outer space."
"So he's building another portal. That's what he needs Erik Selvig for," Dad linked events together.
"Selvig?" Thor asked.
He was a friend from the first time he came here, Erik talked about him non stop.
"He's an astrophysicist."
Thor sighed, "He's a friend."
I got up and moved to the control panel, "Loki has him under some kind of spell, along with one of ours."
I was pretty sure Tasha lowered her head.
A few years back Agent Barton was sent to kill her, he made a different choice. I am Clint and Natasha's only true friend apart from Coulson.
"I wanna know why Loki let us take him. He's not leading an army from here," Steve pointed out, some what frustrated.
Dad shook his head, folding his arms, "I don't think we should be focusing on Loki. That guy's brain is a bag full of cats, you could smell crazy on him."
Thor clenched his jaw, "I don't care how you speak. Loki is beyond reason, but he is of Asgard, and he's my brother."
"He killed eighty people in two days" Nat and I stated together, all emotions in our voices lost.
"He's adopted..." Thor said quickly.
Oh. So now that he's killed 80 people, he's adopted.
Jerk...
"Iridium, what did they need the Iridium for?" Dad asked out loud.
Suddenly Stark appeared from a side entrance, "It's a stabilizing agent."
Stark turned and said something quietly to Coulson then turned back to us.
"Means the portal won't collapse on itself, like it did at SHIELD," Tony patted Thor on the arm, "No hard feelings Point Break, you've got a mean swing," he moved next to me, not so subtly checking me out, "Also, it means the portal can open as wide, and stay open as long, as Loki wants."
He then asked the BridgeTechs to raise the monitors. Who all looked at me for confirmation.
I gave them a nod.
"That man is playing gallaga!" Tony anounced pointing at Agent Lane.
Steve looked at the billionaire in confusion.
"Thought we wouldn't notice, but we did."
Stark looked at one of the computer monitors in front of us and covered one eye.
Great impression Tony...
"How does Fury even see these?"
"He turns," I said stiffly not liking his stupid carefree attitude.
"Sounds exhausting."
He moved away from me and around the table, "The rest of the raw materials, Agent Barton can get his hands on pretty easily. Only major component he still needs is a power source. A high energy density, something to kick start the cube."
I raised an eyebrow, "When did you become an expert in thermonuclear astrophysics?"
"Last night," he shrugged, "The packet, Selvig's notes, the Extraction Theory papers. Am I the only one who did the reading?"
"Does Loki need any particular kind of power source?" Steve asked, trying to get to grips with Stark's babbling.
"He got to heat the cube to a hundred and twenty million Kelvin just to break through the Coulomb barrier," Dad told us all.
"Unless, Selvig has figured out how to stabilize the quantum tunneling effect," Tony helped out.
I know, Tony helping?
"Well, if he could do that he could achieve Heavy Ion Fusion at any reactor on the planet."
Tony smiled, "Finally, someone who speaks English."
"Is that what just happened?" Steve mumbled under his breath.
"It's good to meet you, Dr. Banner. You're work on anti-electron collisions is unparalleled. And I'm a huge fan of the way you lose control and turn into an enormous green rage monster," Tony told Dad, 100% seriousness.
Dad smiled nervously, "Thanks..."
Nick walked in from one of the side wings as I spoke to Stark, "Dr. Banner is only here to track the cube. We were hoping you might join him," I shrugged to him.
Nick walked over to me and stood next to me.
Steve looked up at us all, "Let's start with that stick of his. It may be magical, but it works an awful lot like a Hydra weapon."
"I don't know about that, but it is powered by the cube. And I'd like to know how Loki used it to turn two of the sharpest men I know into his personal flying monkeys," Nick ground his teeth in annoyance.
Thor furrowed his brow "Monkeys? I do not understand."
Steve jumped up in his seat, "I do! I understood that reference..." he now looked embarassed.
Stark rolled his eyes at the Super Soldier.
Nick bent down to whisper in my ear, "I need you to go with your father and Stark. We can't have them knowing about Phase 2."
I slowly nodded before walking over to Stark and my father, "Come on ladies lets do some bonding over astrophysics in the lab."
Then I grabbed their wrists and pulled them to from the room.
