The sun creeps through your drapes waking you. It is 7 am. You stretch your arms out and turn around. Loki has gone. You sit up and run your fingers through your hair.
"What the hell happened last night?" you ask yourself.
You hear people in the hallway. You stand and put your robe on. You open your door to find Natasha, Steve, and Thor coming down the hall.
"You guys look like shit," you say to them.
Natasha laughs, "yeah, long night," she says looking at Steve then back to you.
"You start your training today don't you?" Steve asks.
"Yeah, will you guys be there?" you ask.
"Not today, we are gonna get showered and rest," Natasha says,
"I do think Bucky will be there, he didn't do much fighting last night. He wanted to help with the training today."
"Rest, ha, whims," Thor jokes, "I'll be down there! I want to be sure Loki doesn't try any funny business," He says winking at you.
You smile,
"Well, I am just going to get ready. I'll be out in a few."
The others go into their rooms. You go back into yours and shut the door behind you. You find a pair of yoga pants and slip those on. You slip your shirt off and replace it with a jacket. You find a pair of tennis shoes and sit on the end of your bed to put them on your feet. Once you're done getting dressed you head into the bathroom. You look into the mirror. You noticed the slight rings under your eyes that are forming from the lack of sleep. You splash some water on your face to wake yourself up. Once you are finished you tie your hair up and head out the door.
You shut your door. When you turn around Loki is standing inches from you. You jump back slightly"
"Jesus!" you yell, placing your hand over your heart
"Nope, try again, " Loki jokes.
"You about gave me a heart attack," you say, shoving his shoulder.
Loki steps a little closer, "Darling, if I wanted to give you a heart attack, I would." He grins mischievously at you.
You are not amused,
"Funny, but we need to go," you say, walking toward the common areas. Trying to avoid last night's incident from being brought up.
Loki grins and follows after you.
You both walk in silence to the training room. Upon reaching the door Loki opens it for you.
"After you," he says, holding the door open.
"Thanks," you say, as you walk in.

In the training room, you notice Thor and Bucky are talking. You and Loki walk up to them.
"Hey Claire," Bucky says, stopping his conversation with Thor.
"Hey, so you are helping today?" you ask.
"Yeah, I'm not as tired as the rest of them and thought I could help out," he says.
"Well, okay what are we doing today?" you ask.
"Well, that is what Bucky and I were discussing," Thor says walking up to you."
"We know you have powers but we are unsure exactly how each one can be unlocked. So today we are going to start slow."
He and Bucky look at each other.
"We want to see how your fighting affects your triggers. We also want to see how much you remember from Hydra," Bucky says.
"So you want me to fight?" you ask looking at Loki.
"I am not sure this is the best way to unlock her powers," Loki interrupts.
"Brother, today we aren't unlocking powers. We want to see if the adrenaline, while she is fighting, contributes to any of her powers. If it does we can work on controlling it today. We also want to see if any memories reappear. Tomorrow we will work on bringing each power out and increase from there." Thor explains.
Loki is still unsure but decides to try it
"Okay, but if we turn into BBQ, it's on you," he says, pointing at Thor.
Thor and Bucky laugh, putting a smile on your face.
"Okay, so who am I fighting?" you ask, looking at the men.
"Me," Bucky says, stepping forward.
"Bucky, I kicked your ass the first day I was here. Do you want me to embarrass you again," you say, joking.
Loki, standing next to you snickers and Thor laughs loudly.
"Ha-ha, I was taking an easy on you. Today you're going down." Bucky says, stepping into the middle of the room.
You walk over to join him. Loki and Thor standing back to observe.
You and Bucky begin to fight. He takes a swing at you but you block it. Grabbing his arm and flipping him over to his back. On his back, he keeps ahold of your arm, and with his feet pushes you up and over him, pinning you on your back and him sitting on top of you. You manage to get your leg from under him, place it on his shoulder, and twist yourself up and around to the top of his shoulders. Grabbing his arm and bending it behind his back, you make him fall.
