A new chapter! Yay! I am going to try to have another chapter up by end of Sunday but if not it might not be up until Wednesday night because I have another big test that I have to study for. Wish me luck! If I don't have it up until Wednesday it will be a long one to make up for it.

As always please review :)

Izzy felt Thor grab her, twisting around, shielding her from the explosion as they were knocked back, but her world went dark for a minute from the blast. She came to milliseconds after they hit the ground hard. She looked up at Thor, ears ringing, and he was looking at her with concern.

"Izzy!" Tony yelled from the other side where he and Steve had been thrown.

"I'm good!" She called quickly, coughing on smoke.

"Put on the suit." Steve suggested.

Tony got up with him. "Yep." He said. "Thor!"

"I will take her somewhere safe." Thor said standing with Izzy.

"Be careful!" Izzy called as they ran off.

After they left the room, Izzy heard a very distinct roar that she recalled from the footage in the file. Thor was going to take her to the med bay for safety, but she stopped him, she could handle getting there on her own. If the Hulk was out, then Thor was going to be their only hope of controlling him in the helicarrier.

Thor looked at her with hesitation but nodded his consent and went to help. Izzy leaned against the wall for a second as agents ran past her. Though her head was pounding, and she probably should go to med, her next steps were to the bridge. She found Fury and Hill giving orders, there was some confusion about getting the turbines up.

"Let me get on a console." Izzy said. "I can work on the statistics in here while dad does the repairs outside."
Hill seemed appalled by the idea of having a 12-year-old on the bridge in the middle of a crisis, but Fury agreed and they gave her a station to work at, but close enough for one of them to be able to monitor her.

"Dad, what do you need from me in here?" Izzy asked into her earpiece.

"Why are you on the bridge?" Tony replied.

"If you think I'm just waiting around you have a few screws loose." Izzy replied. "Tell me what you need."

"Stand by." Tony said, voice frustrated.

Fury looked at the Helmsman. "Bring the carrier inward and head south. Take us to the water." He ordered.

"Why water?" The Helmsman asked. "Navigation recalibrated after the engine failure."

"Is the sun coming up?" Fury asked.

"Yes sir." The helmsman replied.

"Then put it on the left!" Fury said. "Get us over water. One more turbine goes down and we drop."

Izzy heard Steve say that he had reached the downed engine. Tony was there already.

"I need you to get to that engine control panel and tell me which relays are in overload position." Tony instructed Steve as he pulled on the rotors, trying to assess damage. After a second, he called out. "What's it look like in there?"

"It seems to run on some form of electricity." Steve replied.

"Well you're not wrong." Tony said.

Izzy smiled faintly. "Don't worry Cap, I'll walk you through it." She said over the comm.

As she guided Steve through what to look for and she listened to his responses, she also monitored where the Hulk was in the carrier. If he got too close to any of the turbines than they could have a serious problem.

"It all sounds good." Izzy said as Steve finished talking.

"What's our next move?" Steve asked.

"Even if I clear the rotors this thing won't re-engage without a jump." Tony said. Izzy felt her stomach drop. "I'm going to have to get in there and push."

"If that thing gets up to speed, you'll be shredded." Steve said.

"Then stay in the control unit and reverse polarity long enough to disengage mag—"

"Speak English." Steve said cutting Tony off.

There was a pause. "See that red lever?" Tony said. "It'll slow the rotors down long enough for me to get out. Stand by it and wait for my word."

Thor's battle with Hulk was starting to take over a greater area of the carrier. Fury and Hill were monitoring it as well.

"We need a full evac of the lower hanger bay." Fury said to Hill.

Hill nodded and moved to take care of it but suddenly yelled out. "Grenade!" She called but not quite in time as she was blown backwards, and several others were injured that were closer to the explosion.

Izzy screamed in shock but thankfully she was farther from the bang and was uninjured. She looked up at Fury with wide eyes.

"Get down." He instructed her.

She did but stayed near the console just in case. She watched as Fury went to the doorway, standing to the side, waiting for something.

Men in S.H.I.E.L.D. gear came in with weapons drawn but Fury was ready for them. He took out three and Hill shot the fourth one.

Sitwell broadcasted the new information. "We got perimeter breach! Hostiles are in S.H.I.E.L.D. gear. Hold on to every junction."

More soldiers were attacked at the door, Izzy had her hands over her ears to protect them from the noise of the gunfire, but she could hear Sitwell's next statement.

"Sir, the Hulk and Thor are in shuttle levels, 2, 3, and 4!" Sitwell called.

Hill killed another man trying to come through the door. "Sir, the Hulk is going to tear this place apart!" She said.

"Get his attention." Fury said.

Hill talked in to her earpiece. "Escort 606, procedure to wishbone and engage hostile." She said. "Don't get too close."

Izzy winced. This is what Bruce was afraid of, it's what they were all afraid of, but she had read all the data that they had on the Hulk, one fighter jet was not going to do the trick.

Looking at her monitor, she could see that some of the hostiles had gone to the downed turbine and were going to try and permanently cripple the carrier. Steve seemed to be handling it so far.

"Something doesn't add up." Izzy said quietly as another wave of men tried to breach the bridge. She looked around for the vents and she saw it. The arrow. "Clint!"

She briefly met the eyes of the man that she called her friend. She only saw a blank expression with pale blue, almost inhuman looking, eyes. It was the scepter's hold on him.

He loosed an arrow and it connected with the console, taking out their power systems. He was gone by the time Fury got a shot off in his direction.

The carrier pitched dangerously to one side. Izzy grabbed on to her chair, trying to keep from sliding away from the console.

"Sir, we've lost all power in engine 1." Sitwell said.

"It's Barton." Fury said over comms. "He took out our systems. He's headed for the detention level. Does anybody copy?"

"This is Agent Romanoff." Natasha's voice came over comms. "I copy."

"Stark, we're losing altitude." Fury said.

"Yeah, I noticed." Tony replied.

Izzy overrode a few controls on her end, trying to get the systems to reboot faster. "Dad, we'll have power back in 60 seconds, but we might not be able to correct if you can't get 3 back up now." She said.

Alarms were going off everywhere, but something caught Fury's eye and he left the bridge. Izzy was focused on where engine 3 was, they were starting to correct as the turbine got up to speed. She couldn't see Steve anymore on any monitor though.

"Cap, I need the lever." Tony said, voice tense.

"I need a minute here!" Steve said, wind rushing into the comm, creating a lot of static.

"Lever." Tony said. "Now!"

Too late, the rotors were going too fast. Tony got sucked in and under them.

"Dad!" Izzy said trying to see if she could gain control of the polarity from her system.

However, Steve finally got to the lever and pulled it, having climbed back up a cable while taking fire. Tony was able to get out of the engine and flew in, tackling the hostile that was firing at Steve. Izzy sighed in relief before taking stock of everything else.

In all the commotion, Loki and most of the hostiles got away.

"Agent Coulson is down." Fury said over the comms.

Izzy's head snapped up. "Paramedics are on their way." She said checking the console.

"They're already here." Fury said. "They called it."

Izzy placed a hand over her mouth, tears beginning to stream down her face.
