She watched on the video screen as Fury locked Loki up.
"I don't trust him," both Elise and Steve said at the same time.
"That's so cute," said Stark, earning him glares from both Steve and Elise. "Elise did you go look at?" she nodded.
"Thank you, it is perfect," he clapped his hands.
"Good to hear. If you happen to find any more of it, then our agreement still stands," he walked away as Elsie rolled her eyes.
"What was all that about?" she smiled.
"I'll tell you later," they both stood together in the room, finally alone.
"Can I ask you something?" they both looked down at the tablet screen as Loki spoke.
"You can ask but there is no guarantee I will answer," said Fury back.
"There was a girl on the ship, Elise Carter. I want to talk to her," Fury laughed.
"I don't even get to pick when I talk to her," Loki shrugged.
"Well she is your only chance at finding anything out. Until then I wish you luck in guessing my plan," Fury had a scowl across his face as he walked out.
"You know the Director will be coming here right?" said Steve and she nodded. Steve looked down at her and smiled when she looked back at him. With a small move he closed the space between them and pressed his lips against hers, placing one hand on her cheek. She responded immediately and they stood there together for what could have been forever until they were disturbed by a knock at the door. Elise pulled away and picked up the tablet.
"I don't really feel like seeing you right now Nick," and typed something into the keypad that Steve couldn't see.
I will go see him
She knew he got the message as he walked away soon after she sent it.
"What did you tell him?" asked Steve.
"I told him I would go talk to Loki, which is exactly what I plan to do," she grabbed her jacket from the cupboard.
"I suppose I shouldn't bother trying to talk you out of this?" she shook her head. "Well then be careful," she smiled.
"If anything goes wrong I can count on you. Even he doesn't stand a chance against both of us," She kissed him once more before walking out.
"I think I should find Stark," said Steve walking out. Elise moved through the corridors, avoiding everyone else. She reached the holding cell that Loki was in and slipped inside quietly.
"Not many people can sneak up on me," said Loki, turning to face her.
"Who says I was trying?" he laughed. "What do you want Loki? I have other business to attend to," he stared at her. "If you have nothing to say," she turned and was going to walk away.
"Haven't you ever wondered?" said Loki and she turned.
"Wondered what?" she replied.
"Why you're different. Why it affected you differently. Oh come on, one of humanity's flaws is intrigue. You cannot deny that you are interested," Elise raised an eyebrow moving closer to Loki's cell.
"But that is just it. You think that you can hold it over me, but in truth you have nothing to interest me," she started to walk away.
"Oh humans. They think that by saying they are not interested it will only encourage others to tell them. You have picked up too many of their flaws but that is not a worry. I can fix that," she stared at him.
"You act as though I am not human. I think you may need help," he smiled.
"I am not the beast here, I am like you," she smiled.
"So that is what you plan to do," Loki looked at her as she walked away and pulled out her phone. "Nick, he plans to release the Hulk, get to Doctor Banner now," she turned back to face Loki.
"You should not be on this dirt pile. You will be standing by my side once this world is destroyed. Whether you want to or not," he was almost spitting the words at her.
"I already have a boyfriend," she said reaching for the door handle.
"Oh you mean the soldier. That can be fixed," he said as she walked out. Pulling out her phone she dialed in Steve's number. He had been taught how to use a phone as one of her first teachings.
"Steve, are you alright?" she said. "Wait, I'll meet you at the lab," she hung up and quickly made her way there.
