The team froze at the furious yet scared look they received from Lily. They had never seen that look from her…ever, more of a scared yet angry look. Iron Man landed on the ground in the back, her head snapping up at him. No one of the team moved.

She slowly stood up, crawling backwards as she did so. She stepped on her broken blade, looking down at it as it cut her. She picked up the hilt and squeezed it tightly, a clear blue blade of ice forming to make a sword. Hulk sneered a little and her eyes darted to him, squinting in a glare. She continued to back up.

"Lily?" Captain America asked, taking a cautious step forward. He held his hand slightly out in front of him, "Are you okay?" She sneered down at him, seeing him as an annoyance. Thor walked up beside him, her head twitching to the side to look at him. "Do you not remember who we are Miss Williams?"

A memory that wasn't hers played in her mind. She stood behind a dark pillar, watching as a group of men and a woman fought other Frost Giants like her. The blonde man before her, beating them with just one hit from his hammer. He swung his hammer around, destroying the land and in turn hurting any who came at him. And in a final blow he called upon lightning to ripple through the land and destroyed nearly half of it. A name registered in her mind, Thor.

She opened her eyes looking down at the blonde man, her face contorted in one of hate and rage. "Thor." Her voice was gruff and full of anger. He smiled, "You do remember." The Captain turned to him but did not look at him, keeping his eyes on Lily as he watched her tense to spring, "I don't think that was a good memory Thor."

Lily sprang into action, swinging her sword down at Thor. Hulk caught it in his hand, growling angrily at her. "Thor friend." He crushed the sword in his hand and instantly punched her in the jaw. She tumbled across the ground for about five feet when she jumped onto her hands and feet, holding her right arm out as another ice sword formed. "Then you are my enemy," She snarled at Hulk. He stomped, roaring loudly.

"Hulk!" Iron Man yelled as he charged at Lily. This was going to get out of hand quicker with him fighting than if he wasn't there. Iron Man ran up beside Thor, his mask flying up, "Anything we can do to stop her?" Thor looked at him, his face one of confused sadness. "I do not understand why she believes me her enemy. I have done nothing to wrong her." Tony frowned at Thor. He wasn't exactly worried about that right now. "Later Thor, right now we have to figure out how to stop them before they possibly destroy Washington."

Lily side stepped Hulk and sliced down his back, giving him a minor cut. His head popped back at her, snarling angrily. She flicked her right hand sending shards of ice at him by way of the sword. He held up his arms to guard his face, a few sticking in his skin. "Lily," Hawkeye said over comms. She searched around the area, trying to figure out who had spoken but she could not find the person. "Don't make us do this Lily. We don't want to hurt you." Hulk tackled her to the ground and pinned her there, snarling directly in her face. She struggled and as she did so she began to become increasingly cold to the touch. Hulk faltered and stood up, looking at his hands in surprise as they burned from her cold touch.

She curled her legs into her gut and then struck him in the stomach, sending him into the building at his back. She crouched on her feet, her left hand on the ground. Ice formed from her hand and spread to Hulk, covering him with a thick layer, freezing him to the building for now.

A jet flew overhead, hovering just above the team that stood behind her. She eyed it precariously, not understanding what it was. A man jumped out of the back, lining down to the ground. Lily snarled at him as he aimed an arrow at her. "We are not your enemies Lily. We do not want to fight you." He said.

Lily eyed the men and jet. The team was slightly spread staring at Lily, unsure whether they were going to have to fight her or not. Captain America stood at her far right, his shield at the ready in front of him. Iron Man stood beside Thor, both with their sides to her and heads turned to her. Hawkeye stood to the left under the jet. He showed no emotion on his face as he stared at her. Another crawled slowly in the back, his black hair gleaming in the sunlight. She knew instantly that it was Loki.

She looked at Hawkeye. "Why do you fight with Thor and Loki?" She asked, her voice gruff. He stayed completely blank, "We fight with Thor not Loki. Loki is our prisoner not our friend." She looked back at Loki, who stared at her, unsure whether it was ok to move. "You fight with one brother yet harbor the other as your prisoner? Why?" Now he showed slight worry, "Do you remember who we are?"

She scanned the group of men. She would never align herself with Thor or Loki and the others were too small to be beneficial. She stared at Hawkeye, "I would not align myself with any who stand here. I am Ileana of the Frost Giants, we enslave the likes of you not fight alongside you."

Iron Man took a step forward, frowning angrily. "Then what has the past month been, child's play?" She glared at him, not liking his tone. "I do not know what you speak of metal man." His mouth opened to say something and then it closed, still frowning. He turned and began walking toward Loki, pausing beside Thor momentarily, "She doesn't remember us. A guess says she probably doesn't remember the past twenty-two years of her life either." Tony had grown to like Lily, though he was still a bit skittish around her because of her abilities and how much she didn't even know about herself. She was smart, overly kind, and was like the kid of the group. Someone he could count on for intrigue and entertainment.

"What do we do Thor?" Hawkeye asked.

Thor stared up at Lily for a moment. He was sad for her loss and the loss of a friend. "I can take you back to Jotunheim." Lily instantly eyed him, suspicious of him. "Why?" He moved so his entire body faced her. "As a gift to a friend."

She kneeled down to his height, holding the sword tip on the ground. "I will allow you to take me on one condition." He nodded, "Anything." She smirked, "That I take Loki as my prisoner to Jotunheim to be judged for his murderous acts against us." Thor nodded. "Then we will leave now."

In the back Tony smiled, looking down at a wide-eyed Loki, "Sounds like you'll get to have some fun."

Tony dragged Loki to Lily's feet. She instantly smirked down at him, putting her hand on his shoulder. His body instantly began to turn its natural blue color. He looked down at the ground, frowning angrily. Tony looked up at her briefly, his smile drooping slightly. He walked back and stood beside Hawkeye. He forcibly pushed Hawkeyes bow down, making him stop pointing it at her. Thor stood in front of Lily, looking up at her, "Are you ready?"

She nodded. Thor didn't even have to say a thing as the Bifrost opened and scooped the three of them up, dragging them to Asgard.

Natasha landed the Jet and Steve instantly hopped on board, slumping on his knees and staring at the ground. Clint and Tony soon came after, Tony taking a seat beside Steve as Clint went to sit beside Natasha. Tony looked at him, a sad smile crossing his face. "There was nothing you could have done Steve. She didn't remember us and probably not her life here on Earth." Steve looked up at him, his expression sad, "Then why do I feel like there was something I could've done?" Tony looked across from him then back at Steve. "Because that's who you are. You blame yourself…"

Bruce walked onto the jet using Lily's armor to hide his genitals from view. He placed the Tesseract staff beside him, everyone else forgetting about it on the ground. He knew what had happened and shared the same sad expression they all did. "I think we all share the blame. We did nothing to try and bring those memories forward, we just…let her go."

They stared at each other for a moment and then stared at the ground or somewhere else, guilt crawling through each of them. Natasha took off, heading back toward the base. In the front seat Clint had said nothing, his expression hardened as he hid his emotions. Natasha didn't know what to say and felt just as bad, she felt like they had just abandoned a member of the team. The training room was going to be full tonight.


I tried to get this done next day but it took a while. I was trying to go a certain direction with it and it took me four tries to get it the way i wanted. It's a very...mellow chapter!
