Surviving My Avengers Life (Thor Love Story... kind of... you will see...)

Forgiveness Is Divine...

When I came to my body was on fire. It started at my shoulder and worked its way out. I couldn’t stop to moan of pain that left my lips.
I heard a female voice tell someone to keep me out till I was healed up more.
          “NO!” I gasped, shooting up in the bed I was in. “No sedatives! They make me sick!”
          “Lay back fair maiden. You are injured and need to rest.” Came Thor’s voice from my bedside.
          I lay back down with the help of his strong arms.  His brow was furrowed in concern.
          Looking around I became confused.
          “Where is Uncle Bruce?” I asked. My voice sounded funny and felt scratchy.
          Thor held a glass of water to my lips and I took a small sip of the liquid. He sat the glass back down and took his seat by my bed.
          “The green one took over after you were brought to the infirmary and they had stopped the bleeding. He was contained until he could control himself.”
          “Oh.” I sighed, tired again. I looked at him seriously.
          “Don’t let them sedate me. It always makes me feel so sick. I would rather feel the pain.” I informed him. He gave me a small smile. He took my hand in his.
          “Fear not Fair Maiden. I will not allow that to happen”
          With that I fell back asleep my fingers entwined in his.
          The weeks after that were hard. Recovery from my injuries was slow and painful. Steve and Tony and Thor were there for me the entire time, but I still hadn’t seen my uncle. I was told that he could not control himself. Every time he calmed a little he would remember what had happened and that was that.
          I learned about the helicarrier and SHIELD. I finally got to officially meet Nick Fury. He was very upset at the mistake that was made, and avoided me after that.
          I was finally moved into my own room. It was small but Director Fury let me paint the walls pink. It was funny at the stuff I got away with because he felt bad about the mistake he had made. 
          I still didn’t sleep if I could avoid it and spent a lot of time reading or meditating. Social networking wasn’t even am option. I didn’t have any friends to socialize with. And my months trapped in that room had made me pretty unsociable.
          The Avengers and Shield agents were trying to help me with that. But it was slow going.
 One night, about two months after I was shot by Danyella, I was trying to read Moby Dick. I couldn’t concentrate and I knew why. I sighed, finally giving up and setting the book back into the bookcase. I got up and dressed in a pair of faded blue jeans and a dark green button-up shirt. I slipped in some black ballet flats and slipped out of my room.
          I had experience sneaking around so I slipped down the hall from one shadow to the next. I knew exactly where I was going. The one place that nobody wanted me to go. The place everyone steered me away from.
          It wasn’t that they didn’t want me to go there but they seemed to think that I didn’t want to go there. I never said anything because as far as I was concerned, he could stay there.
          But tonight was different. I didn’t know why, but it was. I couldn’t go any longer without him. It was time to forgive. When I arrived at my destination I looked into the room. There were two Shield agents on guard.
          Great, I thought to myself. Now what Adalynn? I had never used my powers on purpose before and I was kind of afraid to. But I knew that this was what I needed, so I looked back in the large room and focused on the guards.
Go to sleep and stay asleep till I say to wake up.
      The guards lay down on the floor and promptly fell asleep. I grinned like a little kid in a candy store. Of course I was sure any little kid that had this kind of power would have a reason to grin if they were in a candy store.
          I slipped into the room and looked to the glass cage in the middle of the room. I saw a large, green body sitting in the middle of the cage. I took a deep breath and walked around the cage to the control panel and hit the open button.
          If they didn’t want the door to opened easily why did they do something as stupid as putting a large green OPEN button on the control panel. I snickered at the stupidity of it. The door opened and the large body jumped upward, a snarl escaping his mouth.
          My heart was pounding as I walked slowly into the cage, my pale green eyes never leaving his bright green ones.
          He growled at me again, so lost in his pain that he didn’t even recognize me. I came here for a reason and knew what I had to do.
          “If you make too much noise,” I whispered to him softly, “They will come and take me away.”
          I slowly lowered myself to the floor and crossed my legs. I began to meditate. After some time the big green body sat on the floor in front of me and joined me. I worked hard at radiating calm and good feelings. I could feel someone’s eyes on us. They were making no move so I ignored them.
          After a while I opened my eyes and was relieved to see my Uncle Bruce sitting across from me his eyes closed in meditation.
          “I spoke to harshly when I said I hated you. I was hurt that you believed the lie. I was scared and like before I was alone. I was wrong and I am truly and deeply sorry.” I said in a small voice. His eyes snapped open. They were full of tears.
          He reached out to me and I crawled into his lap and let him hold me close. I needed it as much as he did.
          “I love you Adalynn!” He whispered.
          “I love you to Uncle Bruce!” I whispered back.
