Diamond Skin – Thor

I sighed, going into hiding sucked major butt. There was hardly anything to do and my personality needed something to at least poke fun of; the man in the apartment next door had threatened to call the cops on numerous occasions for the ranks I tried to pull on him just to keep myself occupied and my mind active. But today, I'd decided to risk it; I'd gone outside and what a mistake that was because now I'm in the back of a van heading to somewhere with a whacked up loony who saw my skin as impenetrable.

I decided to try and break out, I mean, I couldn't hurt myself so there were no risks or trouble for the matter. I shuffled down the length of the van and positioned my feet on near the back doors, having every intent on breaking them open. I pulled my legs back before pounding my tied up feet onto the metal of the doors by the handles in an attempt to weaken them. A great surprise was that my plan actually worked for once, both doors flew open and I found myself tumbling out the back of the van; hitting the tarmacked road painfully as the vehicle had been going quite fast down the city roads.

I moaned in pain before forcing my body to sit up with some difficulty due to being tied up with my hands behind my back and my ankles locked together with thick rope. I cursed when I saw I was still in the middle of the road and that the van I had been in was reversing back towards me, but before I had a chance of even thinking of what I was going to do a large pair of arms had slid underneath me and lifted me off the hard ground. I was carried to a building which I only just realised was Stark Tower before squirming to try and get away from the man carrying me.

"My lady, I will not hurt you; I seek only to help." A deep voice met my ears which caused me to snap my head to the side and see the most handsome man I had ever laid eyes on, feeling my jaw drop slightly as I took his appearance in almost greedily.

"Wow you're attractive." I clamped my mouth shut when I realised I'd said it out loud, but received a loud deep laugh from the man holding me in his arms. At least he wasn't freaked out by my loud mouth, I could have a tendency to speak before I think what I'm about to say.

I blanked out for a little before realising to other men were now staring at me from the place on a soft couch I'd been placed on, making me shoot upright only to find I was still tied up and would have fallen flat on my face if the man from earlier didn't catch me and sit me back down again.

"Would you mind, you know." I wiggled my feet at him which caused the man with the goatee beard to laugh a little.

"Didn't know you were into that kind of stuff Thor." He chuckled, making me give him squinty eyes as I watched him. Once my feet were successfully untied I somehow managed to tuck myself small enough to get my arms in front of me and hold them out to him also. Giving him a grin when the three of them look at me like I'd just sprouted a second head.

"What? I'm flexible." I remarked, looking as the man's fingers made easy work of the tight ropes binding my wrists; making me rub them to ease the pain once they had been freed. A knife came out of nowhere and tried to stab down on my thigh only to become bent as my skin never gave way. "I could have just told you if you asked." I deadpanned as they looked at the knife with dumbfounded expressions. "I don't know why I'm like this, but can I go back into hiding now? There are men after who really want to test on me, and I don't feel like being kidnapped twice in one day."

I found out that the three men I had met were members of the Avengers and an agency called SHIELD. I decided to join them when I was asked seeing as I really have nothing else to lose, I mean I can't die so I wasn't worried about that; my constant fear was that somehow someone would get a hold of some of my DNA and use it to replicate what I have into someone else.

Tony was much like me personality and attitude wise and I found it a little annoying when we clashed with each other, which is exactly what he was doing right now. I picked up a jelly bean from the bowl in the middle of the table and chucked it straight at the offending man's head, successfully getting my aim right and smacking him right between the eyes. Thor's booming laugh reverberated through the large kitchen and I smirked triumphantly when Tony glared at me.

"Don't even think about it." I warned, scraping the chair back as he grabbed a handful of the hard sweets before pelting me with them and making me curse at him in the most unlady-like fashion to which his eyebrow raised as he continued his assault. I caught one in my mouth and chewed it before taking refuge behind the large man I had begun developing a crush on, peering round his broad shoulders before ducking as a barrage of jelly beans flew at the both of us. Thor willingly let me use him as a shield which mad my cheeks turn a light pink and Tony instantly noticed as a large grin appeared on his face.

"Someone like Thunder!" he sang, seemingly prancing round the island table to grab me and pull me into view again before dumping me back on the chair I had been sitting in previously.

"Thunder's awesome, I like it when it cracks through the sky." I smiled, getting a positive reaction out of Thor who then began talking to me about his power of thunderstorms. I discretely stuck my tongue out at Tony, knowing his accusation of me liking Thor went over deaf ears as the God in front of me still had not clue. I may have to change that later on tonight though…
