Hello hello! Oh boy am I excited for this part of le story. I promise this is gonna be a lot different than like any other fanfic you've read, starting with this chapter. GOOD THINGS ARE COMIN! Thank you all so much for your support and to those who have been here since the beginning. Today Jackie gets her first look at... Loki :)

"Emergency evacuation in progress! This is not a drill," a voice rang from the ceiling. Jackie looked around, yet again losing her focus on the energy exerting from the tesseract. She could see the confusion and fear on people's faces. Doctor Selvig, who had turned out to be the guy who had retrieved "Donald", as he had falsely named him, was still monitoring the cube, but looked distressed as well. She could see Clint sitting up by the railing, watching the scene with a calm expression.

"What's it doing?" Selvig suddenly asked her. She turned quickly, refocusing on the energy.

"It's giving off crazy energy pulses," she started. "I've never felt anything like it. The amount of power keeps going up."

"Yeah, I can get all that from the computers. But what does it feel like?" Selvig persisted.

"Unstable," Jackie answered, focusing all her attention on the feelings. "Dangerous. Like it's… like it's trying to break something. Rip… something."

"Oh boy," Selvig replied, rushing back to his desktop. Jackie could hear the scrambling of people above them, all trying to get to safety. She could still feel the energy growing stronger, becoming more unstable. She didn't like it at all. No warm fuzzy feeling lie at the back of her head. It was all wrong.

"Talk to me doctor," she heard Fury's voice. She looked up, seeing him walking towards them. "Is there anything we know for certain?"

"The tesseract is misbehaving," no, really?

"That supposed to be funny?" Fury asked.

"No, not at all," Selvig answered immediately. "She's not only active, she's behaving. The kid says it seems like it's trying to… rip something?"

"Is that so?" he glanced towards Jackie. "I assume you pulled the plug.

"She's an energy source. You turn her off, she turns back on," Selvig said. Jackie came over, still feeling uneasy.

"Well?" Fury questioned.

"It's like I said," Jackie started, "it feels like it's powering up. Like it's trying to break through something."

"Well, that's not good, now is it? Where's Barton?" Fury asked.

"The hawk? He's up in his nest," Selvig answered before Jackie, who grumbled. She glanced up, making eye contact with Clint. He still looked calm, but was watching the area with precision. Fury called him down. He quickly slid down a convenient rope, landing and walking over.

"I put you on this mission so you could keep an eye on things," Fury persisted.

"Well, I see better from a distance," Clint replied. Jackie giggled. A scientist called out, just as Jackie felt another spike in energy. It was so power so almost lost consciousness. She spaced out, the power taking all of her focus.

"-doors open from both sides," she heard Clint say when she came back.

"Wait, I wasn't informed of this," Jackie said quickly. "It's a portal?"

"Sorta, yeah," Clint answered.

"Then why are you tampering with it?" Jackie asked, wide eyed. Idiots. All of a sudden, the energy reached a high point. Jackie groaned, holding in a scream as the power only grew. She knelt down, using all her focus on not blacking out. She could feel the ground shift beneath her, and the energy inside exploding a million times in a second. She felt it reach the tipping point, using her last bit of consciousness to generate a wall in front of the people surrounding her. Then, the energy blasted. It hit the wall with such force, the green magic flickered. But Jackie kept it up. As magic exploding around and inside her, she still managed to stay conscious. Finally, the energy died down. Her wall shattered, and she almost passed out. She opened her eyes, seeing the people around her. Clint was watching her, looking concerned. She somehow regained all her energy, pushing herself up from the sitting position she was in. She glanced up at the tesseract, now watching the figure that stood behind it. They started to stand and showed their face. The second they did, Jackie almost fell. She recognized it, and she already hated it. It was the same feeling she had gotten almost a year ago with Rumlow. The same fear, the same hate, the same uneasiness. It was a man. He had long black hair and was dressed like a god. His faced showed the smile of psycho. He was holding what looked like a scepter, a glowing blue stone standing at the end. She could see guards slowing making their way forward, and the feeling got worse. He stopped smiling and started glancing around the room. His gaze caught her's, and it was like looking at death in the face.

"Sir, please put down the spear," Fury commanded. The feeling only god worse as the mystery guy stared at his scepter. He suddenly shot a blue ray out at Fury, who was pushed to the side by Clint. Jackie moved out of the way herself. Guards started shooting at him, only to get impaled or knifed. He shot a laser at one of the scientists, hitting her square in the chest. The next laser was sent directly towards Jackie stupidly acted on impulse. She knew the rule. Don't use your powers in front of extraterrestrial life. And yet, she broke it. She generated a wall, the laser hitting it and disappearing. The man looked at her, smiling evilly. Jackie, for the first time in a while, felt terrified for her life. The shooting finally stopped, and the room was sparking. The man walked towards… oh no. No, why are you- stop. The man was walking towards Clint, who was trying to fight. He grabbed Clint's hand, stopping him from doing anything. Jackie could only feel the uneasiness get stronger. Yet, her body wasn't letting her move. She watched in horror at the scene that was now playing out.

"You have heart," the man stated, staring at Clint. Jackie almost screamed as he moved the scepter towards Clint's chest. It only tapped him, but Jackie could feel the energy coming from it. Clint's green eyes became a ghostly blue, and he stopped resisting. Jackie already knew what he had done. She watched as he moved on to a few other agents, and as Fury tried to sneak the tesseract. He caught her attention, motioning her to hide. It took all of her willpower to obey this order.

"Please don't," the man said as Fury tried to walk away with the cube. "I still need that."

"It doesn't have to get any messier-"

"Of course it does," the man cut Fury off. "I've come too far for anything but that."

"Sir, I'd recommend getting the girl," Clint said out of nowhere. Jackie grimaced, feeling a mix of emotions. Fury was glancing in an opposite direction to throw them off. Unfortunately, it didn't work. In seconds, a laser was being shot at her and she was out in the open. And of course Clint would come to fight me. It's only logical. He had no expression, just a blank look as he started to attack. Jackie had sparred before, she knew his moves. But now they were so… different. So full of hate. Her emotions kept her from doing any real damage, and her common sense kept her from using any of her abilities. Meaning she was pinned in under ten seconds. And I beat Blondie? How? Clint was holding her by the arms as she squirmed, the man drawing nearer. She could see Fury behind them, for the first time looking terrified. She struggled, but it was useless. The man walked up to her, staring her in the eyes. The bad feeling multiplied by a thousand.

"This is to show how powerful I really am," the man stated, turning back to Fury. "Almost like having two tesseracts."

And he placed the tip of his scepter on her chest. Jackie sent Fury one last apologetic look and-

Well, this isn't good.

PLOT TWIST! Bet you didn't see that coming?

No Tony Stark in a dress here (unpleasantly), STAY SAFE MY FRIENDS!
