When I walk back out the halls are a lot me silent, the sound of my bare feet on the floors seems to echo. Entering the main area I see why, Everyone was gone except the avengers, Maria Hill and Helen Cho. Who was currently passed out on the couch. They were all gathered in a seating area, laughing together. 

"Tori take a picture" I whisper to my A.I knowing she would hear me "Already done miss" 

I join he others as Clint speaks up imitating Thor "Ah, whosoever be he worthy shall haveth the power, Whatever man It's a trick"

"Please, be my guest." Thro point to his hammer that was on the table while I grab a beer and sit between him and Bruce. 

Tony gives Clint a smirk, clearly goading him one "Come one"

"Really"

"Yeah"

Clint put down the drum sticks he had been playing with and stands up. "Oh this is going to be beautiful" Rhodey comments before Tony chimes in "Clint, you've had a tough week. We won't hold it against you if you can't get it up" We chuckle as Clint sends a glare to Tony.

"You know I've seen this before, right?" Clint refers to one of the old circus moves he had grown up watching. We all watch as he tries and fails to lift it. I watch confused, I had lifted it the first day I meet Thor. Just then I remember what he said about me being 'worthy' I had ignored him at the time since we were busy dealing with Loki.

I hadn't thought of it until now. I didn't say anything and watched as Tony has a go. "Never one to shrink from an honest challenge. It's physics. Right so if I lift it, I then rule Asgard?"

"Yes of course" Thor willing agrees, clearly knowing that he would fail. "I will be reinstituting prima nocta"

Tony tries to lift Mjölnir and fails, instead of giving in he get his Ironman gauntlet and tries again. In the end we are all watching amused and Rhodey joins in with his gauntlet. 

I smile when Bruce takes a go and pretends to Hulk out. I can't help but fall more in love with his cuteness while everyone else simply looks at him with straight faces. He seems a little dejected so I send him my emotions, instantly cheering him up.

Next Steve takes a turn, I watch as Mjölnir lifts ever so slightly and turn to look at Thor when he leans forward in his seat. Steve pulls again but fails making Thor smile.  

Bruce motions to Nat for her to have a go "Oh, no, no. That's not a question I need answered." She leans back on her had and goes back to drinking her beer before looking to me. Everyone else turns to me as well. 

"Explain to me why no one can lift it, because I didn't even know that was a thing."

"My farther placed some of my power into Mjölnir. If the hammer deems you worthy than you will have to ability to not only wield it but also wield my power within it."

Thor gives me a look and I know that he wants me to see if I can lift it again. Signing I stand up and walk over to it. "I know my self worth. I mean who else fought half the battle in New York with a new born baby to their chest. As far as I am concerned I'm already a super mom and this Momma knows exactly what she is capable of."

With that I lift Mjölnir off the table with the same ease as Thor while giving the others a semi smug look. They all look at me shocked while Thor smiles. "If anyone shall be worthy, I am glad it is you Lady Levi" I place the hammer back down before re-joining Bruce on the sofa.

"All deference to the man who wouldn't be King, but it's rigged, somehow." Tony speaks up, the first to shake off his shock while Clint pats him on the shoulder as he walks past "You bet your ass."

"Steve, he said a bad language word." Hill points to Clint with her beer bottle, she smirks while looking at Steve. 

Steve turns to Tony looking slightly annoyed, but not at all shocked. "Did you tell everyone about that?"

"The handle's imprinted, right? Like a security code. "Whosoever is carrying Thor's fingerprints" is I think, the literal translation."

"That doesn't explain me Tony" I face him, leaning into Bruce's arms.

"Yes. It's a very, very interesting theory. I have a simpler one. You're all not worthy. Apart from Lady Levi, she is special." Thor picks up the hammer and flips it in the air, showing off. The others all groan and Bruce and I chuckle at their offended look's. 

Just then a high pitched noise makes us all flinch. The sound being enough to make our ears ring slightly. Tony pulls out his phone to check on JARVIS. There was a slight metallic thumping noise along with an incredibly creeping robotic voice groaning. A shiver went down my spine making the hairs on my arms raise. 

"Worthy."

I feel Hulk take control of Bruce's body, without changing, as he pulls me behind him protectively. I send a shield to the kids on instinct to make sure they didn't get hurt. 

We turn to see one of Tony's iron legion suits limping it. The suit itself was falling apart and leaking fluid onto the floor. The appearance along it's movements made it look like a zombie.

"No. How could you be worthy? You're all killers."

Everyone keeps their eyes on the robot. I hear Hill pull out her gun while everyone else stands on edge ready for a fight

"Stark"

"JARVIS. Reboot legionnaire OS. We got a buggy suit"

"I'm sorry, I was asleep or I was a-dream. There was this terrible noise. And I was tangled in... In... Strings. I had to kill the other guy. He was a good guy."

Steve automatically asks him "You killed someone." realisation kicks in the and I gasp, turning to Tony. "JARVIS"

Everyone else ignores me except Tony as the robot continues. "Wouldn't have been my first call. But, down in the real world, we're faced with ugly choices."

"Who sent you?" Thor asks as Cho steps closer behind him

The robot turns his head and plays a recording. Tony's voice out "I see a suit of armour around the world"

Bruce seems to figure something out and looks to Tony "Ultron" Tony looks on shocked.

"In the flesh. Or, no, not yet. Not the chrysalis. But I'm ready. I'm on a mission" Thor tightens his grip on Mjölnir and Hill clicks the safety off her gun, standing up. I create a shield around Bruce and Nat since they were to closest to me. 

"What mission?." Nat asks this time. "Peace in our time" As he says that a few of the Iron legion burst through the walls.
