Shannon jumped onto the railings up to the area as Steve followed behind her, Steve broke the lock as they opened the box to see something Steve knew all too well... They stormed with one of the items to the lab as they saw Nick talking with Bruce and Tony, and Thor.

"What is Phase 2?" said Tony to Fury.

"We have a pretty good idea," Sneered Shannon as Steve dropped a Hydra weapon on the table.

"Phase 2 is SHIELD uses the Cube to make weapons! Sorry, the computer was moving a little slow for me."

"I worked in Archives and all this time those were there under my nose the whole time!"

"Carter, Rogers, we gathered everything related to the Tesseract, this does not mean that we..."

"I'm sorry Nick, what were you lying?"

"Why should I believe you I thought we were supposed to keep the good secrets not the ones in the dark!" Growled Shannon as she saw what Tony found out as he turned the monitor to see digital blueprints of a rocket.

"I was wrong, Director. The world hasn't changed a bit."

"I'd like to know why SHIELD is using the Tesseract to build weapons of mass destruction."

"Because of him!" said Fury pointing at Thor.

"Me?"

"Last year, Earth had a visit from another planet that had a grudge match that leveled a small town. We learned that only are we not alone, but we are hopelessly, hilariously outgunned."

"My people want nothing but peace with your planet!"

"But you're not the only ones out there, are you? And you're not the only threat. The world is filling up with people that can't be matched, that can't be controlled!"

"Like you control the cube?"

"Fury, I told you time and again you got to stop jumping to conclusions and put blame on someone who totally didn't mean it!"

"It wasn't my decision."

"Yeah sure it was it was the stupid world council with their heads between their knees in their ridiculous overpriced Gucci suits."

"Hey!" said Tony, "Low blow Starlette!"

"Big man in a suit of armour. Take that off, what are you?"

"Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist."

"I know guys with none of that worth ten of you. I've seen the footage. The only thing you really fight for is yourself. You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play, to lay down on a wire and let the other guy crawl over you."

"I think I would just cut the wire."

"Piff typical." said Shannon sarcastically.

"Always a way out... You know, you may not be a threat, but you better stop pretending to be a hero."

"I agree."

"A hero? Like you two? Of course you'd take his side Starlette. You're both lab rats. Everything special about you came out of a bottle!" said Tony.

Shannon looked square in his eyes as Steve held her off, "Put on the suit. Let's go a few rounds."

"Could I take a turn?"

"No!" said both of them.

"Wow that's a first."

Natasha walked in as everyone even Shannon went back to arguing with Fury, "Are you really that dense? S.H.I.E.L.D. monitors potential threats."

"Captain America and American Dream on threat watch too?"

"We ALL are!" She yelled.

"You're on that list? Are you above or below angry bees?" said Tony to Steve.

"I swear, Stark, one more wisecrack out of you..."

"Verbal threat! Threatening! I'm being threatened!"

"Agent Romanoff, would you escort Dr. Banner back to his..."

"Back where? You rented my room."

"The cell was built..."

"In case you needed to kill me, but you can't! I know! I tried!... I got low. I didn't see an end, so I put a bullet in my mouth... and the other guy spit it out! So I moved on. I focused on helping other people. I was good, until you dragged me back into this freak show and put everyone here at risk!"

Bruce was slowly getting upset as he looks at Natasha, who gets a little frightened... She wasn't the only one Shannon noticed it too.

"You wanna know my secret, Agent Romanoff? You wanna know how I stay calm?"

Natasha and Fury both slowly put their hands on their their hands down to grab their guns.

"Doctor Banner... put down the sceptre."

"Please and thank you." said Shannon adding a polite gesture.

Bruce looks down and is shocked to see he's holding Loki's sceptre; as everyone heard one of the computers beep a few times. Shannon sighed with relief as she saw a stool a sat on it.

"Got it." said Tony.

Bruce returned the sceptre and heads to his computer, "Sorry, kids. You don't get to see my little party trick after all."

"Don't worry about it Bruce, I think we can all agree that we've been holding in a lot for a little too long."

"Maybe for you guys. I'm more of a ticking time bomb."

Seconds later an Explosion hit the carrier as Shannon was thrown as she used her Zip line to save her buns. "Shannon are you okay?" Called Steve.

"Yeah so far so good."

"Carter come with me to cover the bridge."

"I could use a lift." She said as she felt a jerk on her line as she saw Steve pulling her up.

"Thanks."

"Rogers help Stark out get those engines back online!"

"Yes sir."

"Can this get any worst?" Shannon said to Fury as they made their way to the bridge as she used her shield to get the guys with the guns.

"I figured your skills with the shield swing improve after seeing him in person." He replied as he shot more guys as she defended him holding her shield against the gun fire.

"Look I'm sorry about what I said earlier."

"No you're not, you're smart Carter, I've know you if something isn't right you do something about it, only until you get you're facts right."

It wasn't long before when they onto the bridge All hell broke out and next Shannon knew she stopped a explosive Arrow before it hit anyone else. The impact threw her into the walls as she was knocked out temporary as she then heard Fury's words in her headset saying... "Coulson is down."

"No not Coulson, anyone but Phil." She said as she ran over to see Phil as she heard the words she didn't want to hear... "They called it."

Fury escorted her out as she just collapsed on her knees as she quietly cried, "Go ahead, I'm a gonna stay for a bit."

Fury nodded.
