Hey everyone sorry for not updating in a few days. I hope this chapter makes up for the long wait! Now for some, well two, shout outs!

The Yoshinator: Ha-ha yes, leave it to Tony to be the troll and creeper! :D

Shaybo27: I'm glad you like the story! The whole fire and air idea came to me while watching Avatar the Last Airbender. I couldn't help myself. Everyone can't always be perfect and to that I am glad Katy can't beat Natasha. No matter how hard she tries she never will beat Natasha. (:

Disclaimer: I don't and never will own the Avengers, just Katy and the plot. Enjoy!

~Q~


After Tony's little comment about him always watching Katy took it upon herself to search her room. That's where Bruce found her. He leaned in the doorway watching as Katy took off the vent cover looking for a camera. She hung her head when she came up empty handed. The vent cover was replaced as she moved onto the one on the floor.

"Still looking for camera?" Bruce asked with a laugh. Katy jumped, startled and turned to face Bruce with a hand over her chest.

"Please don't do that! And yes I don't want Tony recording me naked or something." She answered lying down on the floor. Katy removed the screws from the vent and looked inside when Jarvis spoke.

"I can assure you there are no cameras in the vents Miss Beckett."

"Never underestimate Tony, Jarvis. Hell for all we know he could be using remote controlled cameras that move through the vents!" Katy replied. Jarvis was silent for a few moments as he scanned the vents for Katy's reassurance. Bruce shook his head watching Katy reach into the vent.

"If you're so concerned about Tony recording anything then just tell Jarvis not to."

"Now that would be too easy. I like to complicate things." Katy said peeking over her shoulder. Bruce sighed and shook his head while stuffing his hands in his pockets.

"My scan says there are no cameras in the vents."

Katy grumbled and hit her head on the floor in defeat. She pushed herself up off the floor after replacing the last vent cover. Bruce seated himself on the bed while Katy finished up her search. Katy paced around the room when she abruptly stopped gaining Bruce's attention. She slowly turned on her heels and pointed her right index finger at Bruce. Bruce just stared at Katy.

"I bet he's watching us right now." She said looking at the ceiling. Bruce looked up when Katy smiled. She walked into her closet grabbing the step stool she invested in and walking back out. Bruce was silent as Katy climbed the step stool and knocked on the ceiling. When she knocked on a hollow portion of the ceiling she looked down at Bruce.

"Jarvis what's in the ceiling where I am standing?" Katy asked.

"That would be the camera and intercom Miss Beckett."

If they AI could sigh Katy was sure he would have. She climbed down and sat next to Bruce who was laughing.

"I told you there were cameras in our rooms!" Katy smiled. Bruce chuckled and pulled her onto his lap.

"I'm sorry for doubting you." He said with a smile and resting his forehead on Katy's. She returned his smile by closing the distance between them and capturing his lips.

"You should try locking the door next time."

They broke apart and glared at their friend. Tony held his hands up in surrender when Katy raised one of her hands. A small ball of air formed in the palm of her hand as she glared at Tony.

"Why must you always ruin a good moment?" she asked. Tony opened his mouth to answer when Katy held up a hand. "On second thought don't answer that. What are you doing here?"

"Now that's a good question. Why did I come here? Let me think. Oh yeah that's right! What?" Tony asked noticing the look from Katy.

"You are worse than me! Now spill!" she said.

"This was just delivered. It's addressed to you." Tony said pulling an envelope from his pocket. Katy walked over and snatched the letter from his hand. There was no return address on the envelope. Katy glanced over at Tony who shrugged his shoulders and then she looked to Bruce. His gaze was fixated on the envelope in her hands. Katy turned the envelope over and cautiously opened it.

The room was silent as the sound of paper ripping permeated the air. The three held their breath as Katy pulled the white paper from the envelope and opened it. Katy paled when she was done reading; the letter and envelope falling to the floor.

"Katy? Katy what is it?" Bruce asked walking over to her. Tony reached down and picked up the letter reading it before handing it to Bruce.

I'm tired of waiting. Come to Liberty Island.

ALONE.

Rivers

Bruce crumpled the paper in his fist. Katy hadn't moved from her position as the words from the letter danced in her mind. This was just like Rivers and she knew the only way to beat him was to play by his rules. Bruce wrapped his arms around Katy trying to elicit a reaction. Katy slowly wrapped her arms around Bruce's waist and pressed her head into his chest.

"I already know what you're going to say but I have to go alone."

"We're not going to let you. For all we know he could have some form of army."

"Bruce there is no way he could get an army. He's the type to finish the job on his own, no help at all. I know how he works and I highly doubt his techniques have changed." Katy said pulling away from Bruce. Bruce was about to protest when Katy rested a finger against his lips.

"I have a plan. I'm not really going alone, well actually I will, but you get the picture." She added.

Tony had yet to say anything after reading the letter. Katy glanced over at him and furrowed her brows. Tony was just staring at her with a serious face.

"Um Tony is everything alright?" she asked waving a hand in his face. He grabbed her wrist stopping her.

"You're getting a suit." Was all he said letting go of her wrist. He walked out of the room without waiting for an answer. Katy gaped like a fish out of water at his retreating back before stomping her foot.

"He better be joking. There is no way I'm getting in a suit of armor like his. I'd die of heat stroke from the fire!"

Bruce remained silent as Katy continued her rant about having to wear a suit and Tony's crazy ideas. He was brought from his thoughts when the room fell silent again. Katy lay on the floor halfway under the bed. She wormed her way out from under the bed dragging a metal case with her. Bruce squatted down next to her and saw the case was actually a safe. Katy pressed in the code quickly as it beeped and the light turned green. She pulled the safe open and began searching for through it. Bruce saw the piles of passports, money and a gun before Katy pulled a bag from the bottom of the safe.

"What is that?" he asked eyeing the back. Katy opened it and dumped the contents out onto the floor. She picked up one of the multiple ear pieces and walkie talkies.

"These are going to be what saves my life." She said. Bruce looked at her confused by what she meant.

~Q~

Katy made her way down to Tony's personal lab thanks to directions from Jarvis. She stepped out of the elevator and into the spacious room where Tony was working. She sauntered over to him to see what he was doing. Tony glanced over the blueprints that were on a computer screen with crossed arms.

"What'cha doing?" Katy asked. Tony didn't as much as flinch at her sudden appearance. She sighed and sat on a nearby table.

"I'm not wearing a suit. I'll be perfectly fine without it." She said quietly. Tony turned away from the screen to look at her. Katy was staring at the floor thinking.

"You're wearing a suit."

"No I'm not."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No! I can do this all day. I've been around enough little kids to play this game." She said smiling. Tony rolled his eyes turning back to the computer. Katy did a little victory dance before sidling up beside him. They were silent as Tony flung his hand across the screen sending the documents onto a tablet. He walked over to the table and picked the tablet up. Katy followed behind him to the elevator.

They both stepped out of the elevator and headed for the kitchen. The rest of the Avengers were assembled in the kitchen. Katy looked around and understood what was happening. She took a seat on the island next to Bruce as Tony sat at the table. Everyone was silent waiting for Tony or Katy to speak first. Clint cleared his throat which earned him a nudge to the side from Natasha.

"I know this is usually your job Steve, but I'm taking over just this one time." Katy said looking over at the super soldier. He nodded allowing her to continue.

"As you are all aware I received a note from Rivers. I'm going to Liberty Island alone, but you will all be there."

"What do you mean Lady Beckett?" Thor asked.

"You'll be in the air. I'll need eyes on me and Rivers at all time. Oh and whatever you do, do not go in the water. I don't need anyone getting electrocuted."

Katy had the group circled around the table informing them of her plan. Everyone chipped in their own two cents as the meeting wrapped up.

"You're absolutely sure this will work?" Steve asked.

"What better way to fight water than with electricity? Anyways can you get that built in a couple days Tony?" she said looking at him. Tony smirked and held up one finger.

"I can have it done in one day. I will have to steal your boyfriend though."

"Fine whatever you need. I will however be checking in on you two." She smirked. Tony snapped his fingers and silently cursed.

"You take the fun out of everything you know?" he said. Katy shrugged and headed for the stairs.

"Now if you don't mind I have some planning of my own to do. Night everyone." Katy ran up the stairs to her room. She locked the door behind her as she made her way to her closet. She pushed aside some clothes revealed a plastic bag. Katy slid the zipper down and opened the bag. She looked inside and smiled.


~Q~

What is inside the bag? An outfit or something top secret? Honestly I don't even know at this point. Ha-ha Hope you all enjoyed!
