''So you think he can change?'' Fury asked walking alongside the small blonde who looked amusingly frightened in her position, though he didn't show his emotions. They rounded a corner and Iris nodded slowly chewing on her lip.

''He doesn't need to change, really. He is...just conflicted. Besides you have those special handcuff type things, right?'' She asked warily, she didn't trust Loki completely, at least not yet. If he escaped or tried to it was all on her, every single bit of it. God knows what trouble Fury would get in if he did. Firy nodded glancing at the pile of clothes she held in her arms, raising an eyebrow.

''You think he's going to just put those on for you?'' Fury asked skeptically raising an eyebrow, Iris blushed deeply and shook her head, her hair was in a messy bun that fell sidewards slightly with curls on both sides of her face tumbling down to her jawline, her slightly round-like shaped face made her look like a little child being caught talking to a boy.

''I just thought it might be better if he looked more human-like? Let me go and speak to him for a little while before we do it, just incase. And thanks.'' She said waving as she went to Loki waiting till Furi left to disapear again.


Loki was laying down on the seat staring up at the ceiling blankly, his legs were crossed over eachother and his hands were together on his chest. He hadn't noticed Iris was there yet, she was standing a little ways away. She pursed her lips, he looked very...attractive like that, she almost slapped herself in the face for even thinking it but she couldn't help let her mind trail. She felt sorry for him, with a deep realisation in her chest, she felt sorry.

Thor had mentioned to her earlier that he had never even wanted the throne, that he only wished his father hadn't tried to use him. Whatever that meant. He also mentioned that Loki actually liked to joke around once in awhile, despite the way he acted. He was after all the God Of Mischeif and he did enjoy annoying and frightening people. Of Thor was capable of being friendly and nice she was sure that Loki was too.

She cocked her head as he muttered something she couldn't hear properly. He didn't move however and only stared up at the ceiling but this time he actually blinked. He let out a long sigh and sat up glancing at her, he noticed her hair was up which was different, it exposed more of her face which was quite lovely, Loki admitted to himself. However she looked confused.

''I said, are you just going to stand there staring at me or are you going to speak?'' He said looking at the clothes in her hand, his mouth gaped open for a moment before shutting it.

''I am not wearing those.''

''Actually you are. Stark went to all his trouble to get them, after all.'' Iris said sarcastically rolling her eyes though Loki didn't catch on to her sarcasm.

''I'll go to more trouble splitting his skull.'' Loki said darkly standing up, he looked even more tired than before. Iris pouted shaking her head, putting the clothes on the seat beside him folding her arms across her chest.

''You have got to stop talking like that, or they really will lock you up for good. Fury agreed to let you out all thanks to me, God of Mischeif, i think i deserve a thanks, hmm?'' She asked with a wide grin watching his eyes light up a little at getting out of the idiotic cage, he looked to his right alittle as if looking at a memory and Thor was teaching his brother manners as a punishment for pulling a prank on one of the helpers.

''You take their hand like this, and kiss it as thanks or goodbye brother'' Thor said picking up Loki's hand, they both snickered loudly for they were only children then.

Loki sighed heavily sick of remembering these memories and took Iris's hand and brought it to his lips brushing them against her hand and dropping it, he smirked as he saw her blush spread agsint her cheeks. ''Thank you, human. You have my word i will try not act like i hate them, you have my word.'' He didn't mind doing that, he thought which disgusted him.

Iris's face was redder than before and she wished he would stop staring, she let out a nervous laugh and nodded, unsure of what to say. The door opened to reveal Nick Fury standing there, looking at the two inside the cage, for a moment Iris's heart sank as she thought he'd saw Loki kiss her hand but then she remembered there was apparently no way she could get into the cage. Loki was confused as to why he looked so angry but it amused him greatly, and Iris's fear amused him even more.

Two agents of S.H.I.E.L.D walked in, with strange looking handcuff type things in their hands. Loki raised an eyebrow at them keeping still as he looked at them and Iris. She rolled her eyes laughing loudly.

''Precautions, Loki.'' She mused watching him realise what they were.

''Ah, but i would much rather see you in them, misgardian.'' He said with a wide smirk, crap. Crap,crap crap, Loki had just ruined everything. A blush spread across Iris's face faster than she could forget the sentence, and Fury really did look furious then. The door to the glass cage opened slowly and Loki put his hands infront of him, not wanting to have them tied behind. He faced Iris as they put them on and he had a huge grin on his face which she wanted to wipe off. Now that he knew how easy it was to make the girl blush he would try it much more often, he enjoyed it immensly. The two agents stayed by the door to the room, while they waited emotionlessly.

Loki glanced at them and looked at Iris with glimmering eyes full of mischief.

''After you, human.'' He said, letting the tension in the room run wild. Iris felt her pulse in her ears and the blood rush to her face once again. Those eyes. That voice. She wished he would dissapear but to be fair she was the one agreeing to help him. She cleared her throat and walked out of the cage and through the door of the room knowing Loki was following her every step, Loki was stopped however by Fury who walked infront of him threatengly for a moment, then waited for him to move.

They walked through places, earning glares from all of the workpeople, Loki could imagine them all serving him as a God but then thought better of it as he looked forward to see Iris's frame, her light blonde hair had fell and it now was swishing passed her waist. They entered a room in which all of those ''freaks'' stood, all eyes turned to him, he didn't miss any of them, especially Thor's though his eyes remained on Iris. She seemed innocently nervous infront of anyone, of course the big mouth, Tony Stark was the first to speak up as he set down something in his hand and looked at him.

''Oh, hey look it's reindeer games.'' He said crossing his arms over his shoulder, Loki scoffed at the mere human, his metal suit wasn't on him and he looked very vulnerable there.

''Brother.'' Thor's deep voice came from the side of the room, Loki glanced up looking at him. Oh how he must hate being stuck here not even seeing that Jane women he was ever so fond about, an asard for a misgardian? Please.

''Thor.'' Loki said, keeping to his word. Unable to move his hands, Loki felt unpowerful in the room full of freaks. He waited for someone to say something, but the tension in the room was thick enough for a knife to slit it.

Iris spun around to look at Fury who was just off to the side of Loki, her blue eyes caught the light and for a moment Loki swore her eyes were black and he frowned.

''I was wondering if i could be part of S.H.I.E.L.D. I want to be trained properly, and not treated like some innocent child. I have no use going home now.'' Iris said causing everyone in the room to laugh except Loki, Captain, Natasha and Fury. Loki stared blankly, blinking slightly. He tilted his head wondering why she would want such a thing, she'd be no use in battle unless she got training, he realised but even then her powers would be important for her survival. Loki remained as quiet as he always had been when Thor and Odin had been fighting, he was the thinker, not the speaker. Usually, anyway.

''For the time being, miss Romanova will train you for a little while, until we can establish what we are to do with this.'' Fury said earning a nod from Natasha, ''to do with this'' more like ''to do with Loki'' thought Iris tiredly. Natasha walked a little way and gave Iris a head tilt, telling her to come with her, Iris pursed her lips and looked at Loki and then Fury who nodded slowly. Loki caught on and followed the two women out of the room warily, Thor was quick to follow.


They had made their way into some type of gym like area, it was all black and looked big enough to fit a stadium and a large audience in. There were differnt types of weapons and things lying around on matts, as well as punching bags. Loki stood leaning against a wall as the two women began conversing, it would be strange seeing Iris kill or harm someone if she ever really needed to.

''Okay, first thing's first. Always be aware. No matter where you are or who you're with, anyone can be danger. Secondly, don't forget to kick their ass.'' Natasha said with a smirk, her red har fell down her face for a moment and she looked dangerous. ''You look quick, so try and just dodge these hits by moving, got it?'' She asked Iris who nodded, her heart was jumping out of her chest and she could even feel Loki watching her.

The Black Widow advanced forward keeping her eyes locked with Iris, she punched out to Iris's head but Iris stepped back quicker than she could meet contact with her face. Natasha nodded with an impressed smile and kicked out to Iris's stomach which she dodged by stepping sidewards. They continued doing it over and over again until Natasha caught her off guard and hit her square in the arm, Loki felt his muscles tense as it happened and his hands almost broke out of the handcuffs all together. He saw the smile on Iris's face though which didn't exactly comfort him.

She was admittedly fast, faster than most asgardian's in battle. But she was so small in stature, though maybe he could look past that considering her powers. Loki slightly jumped as Thor appeared beside him but then he just rolled his eyes in annoyance, Thor had a big smile on his face which Loki just wanted to slap off.

''She is an extraordinary human, don't you think brother?'' Thor asked watching the two women fight and converse.

''That's the problem isn't it? She's a dul pathetic misgardian. If she were an Asgardian perhaps.'' Loki said through his teeth, angered at Thor's questioning. Though he wondered why Thor was asking and even felt a hint of jealousy again, which shouldn't have been there in the first place. He realised deep in his chest that something about the human intrigued him more than anyone ever had.

''Now brother, you are lying to yourself!'' Thor exclaimed with a laugh.

''Am I? Am i? Her heart could stop at any moment for any reason and that would be the end of it, she is not strong enough to be extraordinary, she is being stupid by trying to help me. I have no idea why she is doing it either.'' Loki exclaimed, shaking his head as Thor laughed clamping a hand over Loki's shoulder which he shrugged off.

''I do brother, it is because she cares for you. You care for her as well, maybe even lov-

''Do not say that word. Or i will kill you. Love is for childish pathetic humans who have nothing else better to feel. No. This girl is merely a stupid human who has gotten herself mixed up in these things.'' Loki hissed, moving away from Thor. Thor shook his head as he watched Loki trail Iris's every move. Even where she stepped as if he were afraid something might happen to her, it was just like Thor would do to Jane, maybe even more so. Thor knew his brother well enough to know that he was afraid of her leaving or dying, once he wanted or liked something it made it even harder for him to let go of it.
