In exactly two hours, Kayla walked into the briefing room escorted by Nick Fury, who slammed a pile of papers down in front of Natasha. His angry gaze burned into Tony's eyes.
"I thought she said don't touch it."
"She mighta..." Tony tried to look innocent, but the burns on his hand betrayed him.
"As a matter of fact, I did say not to touch it. I expect the suit immediately melted and your hands received nasty burns. Hmm... I see they did." Kayla looked slightly smug.
"Anyways, Loki is in confinement. I suggest you all pay him a visit." Fury continued.
"I can try to find the location of the tesseract." Kayla offered. "I'm a pretty powerful telepath. I'll go see him right after we're done."
"Ok, and Thor and Stark can go with you. Captain, I have something to discuss with you."
"Ok, Fury. Good luck, Metal-Head." Steve looked cheery.
Tony glared at Natasha, but she was pretending to be busy with the papers.
"Are you sure you know what you're doing?" Tony asked Kayla.
"Of course I know what I'm doing!" she snapped.
"Ok, ok! I just don't want Loki frying your brain!" Tony held his hands up in a defensive position.
Kayla nodded to the guard, who opened the glass cage. She stepped inside and walked fearlessly over the Loki, who looked down at her. With no change in her steeled expression, she placed her hand on his forehead, and they both faded into their minds.
"How long had it been?" Thor asked Tony.
Tony checked his watch. "Five hours."
Suddenly, Kayla took a step back from Loki and removed her hand. She frowned, then swayed slightly. Beads of sweat ran down her cheekbones. Loki's face was shocked, then filled with rage. Loki's fist shot out and sank into her stomach. Without a grunt, she flew backwards and out of the glass cage. She slammed into the wall and crumpled to the ground. Thor ran to her and checked her pulse, while the guard closed the glass case and Tony yelled into his earpiece, "Medic! Medic!"
