And of course...

Read, Review, and above all... Enjoy!

She found her way (accidentally and somewhat violently) to the rooftops. She sat on a large metal pipe that was for the air vents for the building. It was an unusually cold summer night, the city lights looking like stars in the distance and the stars above barely visible from the lights below. Her eyes were fixated on the sky as tears streamed down her cheeks. "Heimdall?" She called to the night air. "Now would be a good time as any…" She whispered as the tears continued to fall. Silence; the same eerie silence she was faced with for the past two and a half months. She inhaled deeply before whispering once more. "Loki…" She choked on a sob. "I know everything is so messed up now… but…" She sobbed once more. "I miss you; I need you… just show me that you're there still." She was answered with more silence yet continued to talk. "I'm having a baby… our baby… and I'm here alone. I've never felt more alone and more scared than I do now…" The silence of the night continued. "Please…" She begged, looking away from the sky and down to her hands as her tears fell.

Kaleria was so lost in her sadness she didn't even hear the door to the roof open. "It's a nice night." He said softly. Kaleria knew by his voice, Coulson had finally found her. "Kind-of chilly but, still nice…" His voice trailed off as he walked closer, standing in front of Kaleria. "Mind if I sit?" She just motioned to the spot next to her, he sat. "I won't pretend to know what it feels like; I can't even imagine what you're going through, Kali." He began. "I'm sure it's scary feeling abandoned on an unfamiliar planet, and now finding out you're having a baby in this strange world. It's tough."

"I never thought I'd have a family." She spoke softly. "A family was not something I planned on or even thought possible with my gifts." She breathed a sigh, wiping a few tears from her eyes. "He was everything to me, and now after what has happened, and that I'm here alone; raising a child, alone. It is unbearable."

Coulson smiled weakly. "But you're not alone." He said. "Not anymore." He motioned to her stomach. "You're going to give life to a beautiful child, and I know it's probably hard thinking the child will never know of Asgard but, that's where you come in." He chuckled slightly. "You also have me." Kaleria replied with a laugh. "I'm serious, Kali. You have me to help you out. I know one day you'll go back home, it'll happen. I'll be there to see you off." She smiled weakly as Coulson continued. "Until then, we just have to make best of this situation, alright kiddo?"

Kaleria laughed a little harder. "Coulson, I'm pretty sure that I am older than you." She referenced to the 'kiddo' term of endearment.

"Yes, I suppose on Asgard you are." He laughed. "But here, I think I can get away with it." She rolled her eyes playfully. "So what do you say, care to give Midgard a shot?"

Kaleria nodded slightly before grimacing. "Is Fury mad about the lab?" She asked, remembering that she had set a few things a blaze before running off.

"Nah." Coulson smiled. "He'll get over it if he is."

"Coulson?" Her voice quiet as she spoke. "Thank you." He simply smiled as the two went inside, Kaleria not looking back as she decided to begin her life anew on Midgard.

Present Day...

"So what happens next?" Steve asked. The two had left the training room and were now walking the compound. Kaleria was growing restless and so was the baby, Steve agreed to stretching his legs but only if she finished the story.

"I became an Agent of SHIELD." Kaleria shrugged, rubbing her rather large stomach. "More so with educating scientists about Asgard and working with Erik Selvig and Jane Foster on my constellations; I still do not understand fully what Jane and Erik do but, I was able to help they said." She smiled slightly, looking to Steve. "I hope you feel even a little better about your situation."

Steve nodded with a charming, nervous smile. "Actually ma'am, I kind-of do; it's a hard adjustment but, you seem to be doing fine." He remarked. "Do you still think of Asgard and going home?"

Kaleria's smile dropped as she sighed, Steve knew he hit a nerve and immediately went to apologize, Kaleria interrupted. "I think of it every day but, as Coulson has said, we have to make the best of our situation." Steve just nodded as they continued to walk the compound in silence, passing glances to one another every so often as Steve would drop hints and comments on his past and what he was feeling. Usually, he would talk about Peg and tell Kaleria as much about her as he remembered.

"She was one heck of a gal." Steve smiled sadly as he remembered Peg. "Peg would have been the one."

Kaleria smiled. "She sounds wonderful, Steve, and maybe we can even track her down in the system; see what she did with her life?"

Steve looked at Kaleria in disbelief. "Can we do that?"

Kaleria nodded. "SHIELD seems to have a database for all humans and nonhumans alike. I think maybe we can find out what happened to her."

Steve sighed slightly, running his hand through his hair. "She probably married, had kids."

Kaleria smiled sympathetically as the two stopped walking. She placed a gently hand on his arm. "We don't have to look until you're ready. It's just a suggestion if you're ever curious." Steve just nodded as silence took over the two once more. Finally, Kaleria's eyes lit up, sparkling. Steve noticed for the first time how green her eyes were. "Say, have you ever seen a movie before?"

Steve laughed. "We had motion pictures seventy years ago, Kali."

"Well, I don't have those on Asgard." She teased. "Anyway, there is this one movie that Coulson had showed me, Star Wars, ever hear of it?" Steve shook his head. "We should watch it."

"What, right now?" Steve asked.

"Well, do you have anything better to do, Captain Rogers?" She smiled genuinely. "I'm just as stuck here as you are." She corrected herself. "Well, we can leave. They know I won't be going anywhere and you, well, I can take you. Coulson and Fury are busy at a different location anyway."

Steve raised his eyebrow curiously. "I can just get a fire extinguisher." Kaleria just smiled in response as Steve nodded. "Alright, let's go watch this Star Wars." She was beaming at his response as the two headed to the break room with the only DVD player Kaleria knew how to work.

As the movie reached its peak, Kaleria sat next to Steve, both watching intently on the leather couch. Kaleria's feet curled under her body, one of the only comfortable positions she knew at this point. The credits began to roll as Steve looked to Kaleria. "Well, this was nothing like the movies in my time."

Kaleria laughed. "You sound like an old man."

"I might as well be." Steve sighed with a smile. "We had very different movies in my time; the greatest movie was Wizard of Oz; flying monkeys and evil witches, that sort of thing."

"Never saw it." Kaleria shrugged as she shifted in her seat; ignoring Steve's incredulous look as best she could before laughing. "Again, I am from Asgard, there is no such thing as movies where I am from, forgive me for missing out on this Wizard of Oz you speak of."

"We should watch it." Steve suggested.

"I don't think it's in our library of movies." Kaleria replied. "But we can always go get it."

"We can?" Steve asked.

Kaleria smiled. "If you're up for it, we can."

Steve shrugged, returning Kaleria's smile. "Sure, let's go."

Kaleria had managed to sneak Steve out of the compound, although, no one really questioned them leaving in the first place. Not many questioned her at this point; she was a member of SHIELD as far as they were concerned.

It was a nice, warm afternoon as the two walked to the nearby video store. The same store Natasha had taken Kaleria a few times, and once with Coulson. The two made small talk, mentioning things they either did not understand or things Steve found to be new or different. Kaleria would laugh and talk of how she could not "compare the differences".

"I can't believe this movie is in the 'oldies' section." Steve grimaced as the two stared down at the Wizard of Oz in Kaleria's hand.

"It's a classic." She corrected, pointing to the section they found it in. "See? Classic."

"It was new when I saw it." Steve teased, causing Kaleria to laugh along with him.

An older woman had walked by them then, stopping to admire Kaleria and Steve; her eyes trailing to Kaleria's stomach; a bright smile as she asked. "When are you do?"

Kaleria smiled. "Very soon, less than a month if all goes well."

The woman smiled and nodded. "You must be excited." She looked to Steve and then to Kaleria. "Congratulations to you both."

"Oh, um…" Steve began but Kaleria just laughed.

"Thank you." Kaleria said to the woman as she walked away.

"I guess we look like a couple?" Steve replied with a blush as he and Kaleria walked towards the front of the store.

"Well, one can assume, and with my giant belly I'm sure they'd hope we are a couple." Kaleria replied. "It was easier to just go with it than explain that I'm stuck on earth and have no idea where my husband is."

Steve chuckled. "Fair enough, Kali. If only they knew, I'm a soldier lost in time and you're a Goddess from another planet."

"Realm, actually." Kaleria corrected, sticking her tongue out to Steve.

"Right, Realm." Steve replied.

"Come on, let's go pay for this and head back to the compound."

For the next week, every day started off the same; Steve would find Kaleria or vice versa and the two would watch movies together, read Midgardian history books to catch Steve up with what he missed. Some days they would even go for walks around the nearby park and just talk. They were each other's comfort, without really saying it. Both did not belong and knew they didn't belong yet, that was comforting. They had someone to talk to who was just as lost as the other. It was the friendship they needed, the companionship they craved.

One day, Kaleria brought Steve to one of the computers, accessing the database with her limited, yet still helpful, credentials. "Are you sure? We don't have to look her up if you're not ready." She looked to the nervous Steve.

He nodded, knowing the potential consequence. "I'm ready."

Kaleria typed into the database the simple name 'Margaret Carter' and immediately found results. Kaleria noted. "She was a member of SHIELD along with a man named Howard Stark."

"Tell me she didn't marry him." Steve grimaced.

"Doesn't seem like it." Kaleria said as she continued reading, hearing a sigh of relief from the super solider next to her, causing her to smile slightly. "She's still alive according to the records."

"She is?" Steve asked. "Where is she, I have to visit her."

Kaleria replied sadly. "I can't access that, Steve. Maybe we can ask Coulson when he comes back." Steve nodded, sadness taking over his face as he sighed.

"Listen Kali, thanks for showing me this. I need to be alone for a while." He stated simply as he stood from his seat next to the goddess and leaving her in silence.

Kaleria had not heard from or seen Steve for most of the day; she was alone now to her thoughts, reading a Midgardian piece of literature that she had found in the library. She had to keep herself busy somehow, her new companion needed space and she needed to clear her own mind. "Agent Kaleria." She peered over the top of her book, seeing two SHIELD agents looking at her. "We need you to come with us."

"What's going on?" She asked curiously, folding the book closed as she stood up slowly, placing a hand to her stomach. "Is everything all right?"

"Director Fury has given us the orders to move everyone to the Helicarrier." Kaleria looked at him awkwardly, unsure of what he meant. "It's another base off the coast line."

"On what grounds is this call for the relocation? Has something happened?" She asked.

"There has been an accident at another location, we need to move." Kaleria knew something else was going on, a simple accident would not call for relocation, especially for her.

"Is Coulson all right?" She asked, shuffling awkwardly.

"He will meet us there, for now, we have to relocate you." The agent said.

"What about Captain Rogers?" Kaleria asked.

"Fury is speaking with him directly." The agent replied. "Now if you'll please." Kaleria nodded, following the two agents out of the room and down to the evacuation hull.

"Is it safe for me to be on a plane?" Kaleria asked eying the jet suspiciously as agents prepared for the flight.

"We have a doctor on board if necessary. You will be fine if anything should happen, Agent." The agent said with as much sincerity as possible, knowing Kaleria would object otherwise.

Satisfied with his answer, Kaleria made her way to the stairs, walking up it slowly as she entered the jet destined for a top secret location.

The fresh sea salt air was intoxicating as Kaleria stood on the top deck of the base. She was unsure why they were relocated to this air craft carrier and needed answers. Luckily, she was greeted with a smile from a familiar red head. "Agent Kaleria."

"Agent Romanoff." Kaleria returned the tone as she looked around. "What is all this about?"

Natasha pursed her lips, contemplating her next words carefully. "Something has happened, Director Fury will explain more inside. For now, we have guests to welcome." She motioned behind Kaleria.

Kaleria turned to see Agent Coulson walking alongside Steve. A smile and a wave of relief washed over her as she walked over with Natasha. She smiled brightly at Coulson. "Glad to see you're all right, Coulson." She then turned to Steve. "And you too, Captain."

Steve nodded in response as another gentleman joined them. "Ah, Dr. Banner." Natasha smiled, looking back to the group. "This is Dr. Bruce Banner."

"Pleasure." He nodded nervously, rubbing his hands together as he looked at the group.

Coulson looked to Kaleria, smiling as he nodded. "Kali, we should get inside."

"We all should." Natasha said, looking at the men.

Kaleria smiled to Steve once more before following Coulson inside the Helicarrier.

"So what's really going on, Phil?" Kaleria asked as the two made their way to the main intelligence room. "I heard there was an accident but, I know accidents don't call for relocation."

Coulson smiled. "You're too smart for your own good, Kali." He replied as he opened the door to the main intelligence room, revealing the giant open window to the outside world, many different agents at computers, and Nick Fury standing in the middle of it all. "Director Fury will explain more in a bit."

Fury turned at the mention of his name, seeing Kaleria and Coulson walk in. "Agent Kaleria, how are you feeling?"

"Honestly? I prefer to know what my relocation calls for before it happens but, other than that I am fine." She smiled sarcastically at Fury whom just chuckled slightly.

"All in due time, Agent." He replied, sighing. "This will involve all of us." The door opened as he finished his sentence, revealing Steve Rogers, Bruce Banner, and Natasha Romanoff.

Kaleria watched as Fury walked closer to Rogers, Banner, and Romanoff; oddly enough being handed $10 from Rogers as he stared in awe at the room. Kaleria walked over to him. "How are you doing?" She asked, trying to force a smile.

Steve smiled weakly, smiling at Kaleria as he placed a gently hand on her shoulder. "I'm fine, thank you for showing me about Peg before." Kaleria relaxed as Steve looked around at his surroundings again. "What is all this?"

"It's another SHIELD base, something has happened, an accident I've been told." Kaleria answered him honestly.

"Fury mentioned the Tesseract?"

Kaleria raised an eyebrow, curiosity flowing through her. "The Tesseract; what about the Tesseract?"

"I will get to that next, Agent." Fury said from behind, causing Kaleria to jump slightly.

"The Tesseract was stolen from one of our bases; we are sweeping the planet through any type of surveillance; cell phone, security cameras, laptops. If it's connected to a satellite, it's eyes and ears for us." Coulson said.

"That's not going to find them in time." Natasha replied.

"Someone needs to catch me up on what's happening." Kaleria narrowed her eyes, crossing her arms over her chest as she surveyed the room. She noticed Coulson had a sympathetic smile on his face; she knew they weren't telling her everything. "I had no information on the Tesseract even being here, what is going on?"

"Earlier this morning our base was compromised; we had been keeping the Tesseract safe and planning to use the energy to help the world." Fury's voice was did not waive as he spoke. "The Tesseract rejected the tests done by Erik Selvig and was planning on misbehaving, at that time an unknown person arrived from the Tesseract energy, compromising Selvig, Agent Barton, and a few other Agents of ours."

"Aside from the Tesseract not being something you mortals should be playing God with." She received a look from Fury. "Someone stole the Tesseract and compromised our Agents?" Kaleria asked in disbelief. "Do we know who?"

"We got a hit." An Agent from behind said, looking at a computer screen.

"Location?" Coulson asked as he came closer to the Agent.

"Stuttgart, Germany." The Agent replied. "This guy isn't exactly hiding." He said, pulling up a picture of the offender.

Kaleria felt her face flush, heat rushing to her hands as sweat began to form on her forehead. She felt sick, she felt as though her heart could stop right there as her eyes locked on the familiar face on the screen. Fury watched her, knowing full well who the culprit was and what he meant to Kaleria.

Steve, turning to face Kaleria and seeing her distress, rushed over and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Are you all right?"

Her breathing became harsh as she looked passed Steve and to Fury. "Is this for certain?" She gasped.

"I'm sorry Agent." Fury nodded.

"What's wrong, Kali, what happened?" Steve asked again.

"The man who stole the Tesseract…" Kaleria breathed. "I know him."

"Who is he?"

"My husband…"
