"Seriously? Can they be any more paranoid?" Irene questioned her sister.

"Just go with it"

Irene rolled her eyes as the security guard put away her jacket, boots, and gloves into a plastic compartment. The female then took out a very light and paper looking jacket with what looked like hospital slippers in replacement. Irene looked over to her sister and gave her a look which her sister just slightly shrugged and looked away. Irene let out an annoyed noise and took the items, praying that she could've used one last persuasion spell on this lady.

Irene glared to her sister, "Please tell me that that was the only thing I had to do"

It felt like everything was at a standstill as Irene and her sister made it over to the back of the building in the most contained place ever. Over the last week, people were turning their stares into glances but after what happened this weekend, the stares came back over to Irene again, and even some glares were included. Irene exhaled as she felt like she was being brought into death row already when she walked into the secluded hallway. Once the door to the interrogation room opened, she wasn't too surprised to see Nick Fury standing there looking just about ready to shoot her in the face.

Irene opened her mouth to say something but then slowly closed it; she didn't really know how to defend herself as of this point. She glanced over to the man sitting at the table that looked up and met her gaze. Steve looked tired, defeated, and sad as he rubbed his eyes, almost like as if he too tried to fight for her. Irene slowly turned her attention back over to Fury at which she flinched at the way his eye was staring down into her.

Steve finally broke the silence, "It wasn't her! I was with her all throughout the night SHIELD was hacked into. Even before then, Miss Hill was at her sister's apartment before then. Whoever did this knew her whereabouts and knew you would blame her for it"

"Then why were her file and the files that we've been working for hard to achieve just vanish out of thin air!" Nick Fury yelled out.

"Why didn't you answer your phone when I called you, Ren?" Maria asked, "We could've had this thing all cleared up by then"

Irene looked over to her sister, "Really? Or would we be doing this again? I wasn't here and I don't know how to hack into a computer. You out of all people should know this by now! What is wrong with you? What can I do to prove that I'm innocent?"

"There's nothing that you can prove! You're a criminal and tried to take a senators life not too long ago. How in the hell am I supposed to believe that you of all people aren't behind this? We all know exactly what was in that file before you destroyed it" Fury let out.

"Why would I try to jeopardize my life if I come into this building every day knowing that you guys give me the vaccine to leave me defenseless?"

There was complete and utter silence in the room as the tension swarmed in, making it harder to breathe for everyone. Irene knew that she had Fury stuck, but that doesn't mean that he won't try to fight is way out of it.

"Check the surveillance cameras" Steve spoke up.

Nick Fury looked over to Maria Hill who seemed to have lost her will to move. Maria looked down before glancing over to her sister then off into space.

"What's wrong?"

"The surveillance cameras were destroyed"

"They seemed to have looked like they were melted. Almost like as if someone with abilities had aimed at them"

Nick Fury crossed his arms over his chest and looked over to Irene, knowingly. He stared at her the way her father used to whenever he was right and wanted to see what her excuse was anyways. Irene rolled her eyes and let out a laugh that surprised everyone in the room. She shook her head and ran her hand through her hair as she tried to contain herself from attacking Fury.

"My powers don't make objects melt, Maria!" she snapped at her sister, "They make things explode, remember"

"I remember"

"You can't be on her side just because she's your sister" Nick turned to her, "We've worked for nearly two years on those Mutant Files. Now the first mutant who comes into our building just so happens to be your sister, an assassin, and also was part of the Mutant Mob as well?"

"You are such a hypocrite!"

"That's enough!"

Steve banged on the table and stood up from his seat, making everyone jump. Irene glared at Fury as she defensively crossed her arms and looked down towards the ground. Nick Fury still drilled holes into Irene's head even though she slowly started to move over to the other side of the room. Maria cleared her throat, trying to get rid of the lump that was rising which threatened tears to blur out her vision.

A beep resounded throughout the room, calling Nick Fury and Maria Hill. Irene looked up over to Fury who only cast his eye down over to her. Irene motioned her arm over to the door as a signal for him to leave. Fury looked over to Maria who looked like she took a step back from her boss' stare down.

"Let's just see that this doesn't have anything to do with your sister"

"How can I? I was in this room the whole time" Irene spoke up.

The man ignored what she said as he barged out of the room, Maria trailing slowly behind in his shadow. When the door closed, Irene let out a cry and collapsed to the floor.

"Everything's going to be okay, Irene" Steve suddenly was down at the floor, by her side, "This whole thing will blow over"

"No, Steve, it won't" Irene shook her head.

"Then we'll find out who's doing this together. They must've left a sloppy trail around here somewhere" Steve told her, "We'll find out who it is"

"It's not that simple, Steve. Don't you see?" Irene asked, "I'm a delinquent. They already think it's me"

"Ren, I don't believe you did it"

"Only one person in this whole vicinity" Irene shook her head, "Even my sister doesn't believe me"

"I think she does" Steve objected, "She just didn't know what to think with Fury barking orders into her ear"

"So you finally agree?"

Steve let a small laugh escape his lips, causing Irene to smile up at him. But the moment didn't last as she let out a defeated sigh.

"We'll set things right"

"Are you sure?" Irene looked up to him, "I don't really think you want to be on his bad side. He can get pretty gruesome if he finds out that you are trying to help me prove my innocence"
