Hi guys. It's been some time. Between doing my masters and traveling abroad I kinda lost sight of my stories. But an old friend of mine who a couple of days ago starting really kicking my ass to get into finishing all my stories since and he is right about it I owe it to the people. And frankly I would love to do it . In any case it will take me a while to get back into shape especially I was never in a very good writing shape. And most of all I have to go through the combined pain and pleasure of watching KXY again to get a good grasp on the characters again.

Anyway until I do seeing as how my latest Jessi like experience had to do with watching Jaimie in Thor I decided to make this chapter a slight Avengers?KXY crossover one shot. I would really like to do a real once someday or hope that someone else does it but meanwhile this is a nice exercise to get back into writing. I know it's not good but I still hope you enjoy it :)

Jessi was not what one might call a very normal girl. Oh sure there was the part about being a perfect superhuman with borderline supernatural abilities. But no this was more about her personality. Most people settle one type of personality which can fluctuate a bit depending on circumstances. Kyle was the nice boy scout type but with great inner strength. Josh was your average teen boy with a combination of annoying little brother and a sweet guy. But Jessi? She was all over the place. She could go from a girly girl arguing about clothes to someone who felt awesome shooting some pool in a seedy bar. She could go from being a sweet vulnerable girl to someone who make a navy seal crap their pants.

Yes this was Jessi. A girl who didn't like for anybody and anything to tell her how to live her life and what she could or could not do. And recently she really really wanted to settle her beef with gravity. After a nice parachute jump that Kyle got her for her birthday she developed a real passion for the skies. She tried them all : planes, helicopters, deltaplanes but nothing ever satisfied her. The closest she came was when she tried proximity flying with a wing suit but not just Kyle but everybody who knew her was really freaked out when she did it, not to mention that it was still quite limiting so she gave it up. She even tried simply learning to fly with her own powers but no matter how much she pushed herself she could barely fly and it wasn't very much. Just very straining

And just when she was about to give up she saw him. Tony Stark and his wonderful suit, as soon as she laid eyes on it she knew she wanted it. It was everything she desired: speed, flexibility, freedom. So she started working on her own version of it but she soon hit a speed bump. Namely the power source. She figured out pretty quickly how the Arc reactors works but while with some wise investing and a very good run in Las Vegas she had quite a lot of money getting a rare and monitored substance like palladium was well not a very good idea. Not to mention that from what she could see there was a rather serious chance of getting poisoned by it

So she was looking for new ideas and for inspiration she went to the same place where she went while trying to figure out the Arc reactor, on a tour in the Stark building.

Except this time something unusually happened. A large group of people in suits that screamed feds arrived at the entrance. Almost herded inside was the man himself: Tony Stark who was traveling in a strange company. Next to him was a young man who for some reason reminded her a bit of Kyle. He just projected this image of a boy scout followed closely by a cold looking but very attractive redhead woman and a tough solider who seemed to have…a bow if she could make out correctly the shape underneath his coat. And at least what looked like a nervous and grumpy scientist type. She has been around enough of them to know the type on sight. Next to him…well he wasn't a scientist that's for sure. Tall, blonde and built like some kind of a Greek statue the man was more then impressive. Her eyes lingered on him and for just a second he turned to look at her as well.

She didn't expect the next. The man suddenly had a huge grin and practically ran towards her. For a split second she actually thought he was going to attack her but instead he enveloped her in a hug. Not she really understood the definition of a bear hug

"Sif my friend I am so happy to see you here" he said still grinning like a madman after he let her go

"I…." Jessi wasn't exactly sure what to say to know. But none other then Tony Stark himself spared her the trouble

"Thor" he said with a mischievous grin" don't keep this lovely lady to yourself. Won't you introduce us?"

Thor laughed loudly and clapped his hand on Stark's shoulder which nearly brought the smaller man down

"But of course. This is my dear friend and fellow warrior The Lady Sif, her skill in battle in second only to mine. Sif this is Tony Stark. Together we shall face the grave threat of Loki"

There was a myriad of other introduction during Jessi barely managed to say two words which were mostly a pleasure to meet you. She was confused but at the same time beyond curious. She knew she shouldn't do it and would get in a lot of trouble for this but when the man introduced as Son of Caul said that they have to go now she let herself be swept by the crowd and soon enough she was traveling on an elevator and heading very very far under the Stark building. She was trying to absorb everything which wasn't easy with Thor chatting like a school girl about everything from what thing he slayed, to how glad he was that she defied Odin's orders and joined him in Midgard , Stark's attempt at flirting or the Boy Scout's attempt at not looking at her cleavage. Poor guy looked like he had never seen a girl wear a summer shirt. Her silence didn't seem to bother anybody. Apparently this Sif girl(and Jessi was increasingly beginning to think that these weren't some call signs but he really was referring to the Sif from mythology and that the man really believed he was the thunder god) whoever she was ,was the strong silent type

What she found at the bottom floor was awesome. Supercomputers that she has only read about, a lot of Stark's Iron Man suits and so many wonderful other toys, unfortunately her sightseeing was cut short as they were seated at the big table and were briefed.

And it was quite a briefing. Being a superhuman created in a lab had made her a lot more open minded then most people but this was impressive new information even for her. And now she felt really bad. She was already feeling guilty enough for deceiving the lovable blonde giant but now she had apparently accidentally infiltrated a superhero team that was planning on saving the planet. So gathering her courage she stood up interrupting the report of the Son of Could

"Yes Lady Sif. Do you have any questions" he asked politely

She gazed at the entire table where each member was looking at her curiously apart from Thor who still had his huge grin and…where on Earth did he find that huge mug of bee?

'Yeah…. I don't know how to say this but…" she said while shuffling her feet nervously " I am not actually called Lady Sif. I am Jessi'

The entire table froze, especially Thor. Feeling that this wasn't enough she added

"Sorry" and included what Josh described as her cute look

There was another five seconds of complete silence and then all hell broke loose
