Disclaimer- Very sadly, I only own my OC.
And I thought it would be funny to start this next one from Fury's point of view.
Fury's POV
If it had been anything less important, I would have sent Hill. But I wanted to hear Stark's explanation of the situation for myself. He had no idea what was in store for him. I was running a mental tirade of angry words through my head when the elevator dinged. Stark and Rogers stepped out. I was about to start an hour-long lecture of grown up words, but bit them all back when I saw the tiger.
I did what I usually do what things don't go as planned. I blamed Stark.
"Stark, did you turn your guest into a tiger?" I asked in a very deliberate I'm-not-messing-around voice.
"Nope." I was startled by the voice of a young girl. I turn around and there she was. Very much human and glowing.
"I changed myself, thank you very much." she said snippily.
I didn't reply, just raised my eyebrows at Stark. "Explanation, please."
He grinned in a way that made me regret my decision. "Sunny over there has cosmic light powers. She controls heat, light, and she can also shapeshift." He looked over his shoulder at the exasperated girl. "I miss anything, Sunny?"
"Magic." She said through clenched teeth. "I can do magic, remember? And so help me I will turn you into a duck if you call me Sunny again."
I sighed. I definitely should have sent Hill. This was a disaster waiting to happen.
The girl clicked her tongue and a golden bird appeared on her forearm. She stood up and did what I least expected her to do. She formally introduced herself.
"Director Fury, nice to meet you. My name is Hope. The big glowing bird is my guardian, Flare."
I was taken aback, but managed to say, "Nice to meet you too, Miss. So, you do have superpowers?" I asked, very curious.
"Yep. Well, I just found out the other day. As in today. So I don't really have a handle on the magic yet… but I bet I could still turn Stark into a duck." She was being unusually honest. Spies know honesty and innocence, and this one had it written all over her.
There was one gap in her story, though. "You said you only found out today. But you appeared glowing in that tree two days ago. Would you explain that, please?"
She looked over at Stark, who nodded encouragingly. She looked back at me and muttered, "The truth sounds crazy."
I raised my eyebrow. "Well, go on."
She took a deep breath and then blurted, "I was walking home from school in the afternoon and I tripped, fell through the street and landed upside-down in that tree in the middle of night. And that was when I started glowing. After that I was in a coma for two days and I found out about my powers today. Phew."
I stared. "You're right. That does sound crazy."
Ooooh! Minor cliffie! Very sorry for the short chapter. I had to get this done today.
READ AND REVIEW PLEEEEEASE! PLEASE!
