So it's a bit shorter than normal but I hope you still enjoy it.


"So are you going to tell me where she is?" Tony Stark demands as he glares at Nick Fury. They were at a S.H.I.E.L.D base, Peter and Natasha were secretly trying to find Crystal whilst Tony distracted Fury.

"She is a dangerous criminal in our custody, she killed all those people Tony. I thought that you would understand, besides what does she mean to you?" Fury calmly replies, trying to ignore the cold feeling running down his back. He thought this girl meant nothing to the avengers, well except Peter but the kid isn't exactly threatening.

"She means everything to me" Tony says before he can realise what he is saying and he masks his shock at his own words whilst Fury just stares at him.

"Here's the CCTV of her, look she's fine" Fury shows him live footage of Crystal on a tablet and a low growl escapes Tony.

"She is covered in blood and is wearing a collar I've seen those mutants wear. That is not fine" Tony says, anger making his body shake slightly.

"Yes Fitz-Simmons developed the collar to contain her powers as she was using them to harm our agents"

"Well get it off her"


****


*Crystal's pov*

I groan slightly as I finally manage to get the collar off after enduring shocks after shocks, I'm not in a good mood and I'm out for blood.

Specifically, Grant Ward's blood, the slimy bastard.

I get up, leaning heavily against the wall, my hand waving erratically in the air to rip the door off its hinges. I walk, well shuffle out, hitting any agent I see with a frying pan that appears in my hands. I manage to make my way to a room with computers in and I quickly hack into the system to delete all the files on Loki. I don't know why I did this but it's what I felt I needed to do.

"I suggest you don't do that" A familiar mans voice says and I turn around as I feel the barrel of the gun on the back of my head. "Answer my questions and I won't kill you"

"It's cute how you think I'll comply Agent Ward" I say quietly as I stare into the eyes of the sleeper Hydra agent.

"How do you know?" He asks, no emotion on his face or in his tone.

"I know everything about you Ward, everything. Your death, your family drama....your feelings for Sky" I smirk and he presses the gun harder into my head. "She's the unknown factor, sound familiar?"

"Hydra will need you" He says quietly as he takes my chin roughly into his hand, he turns my head from side to side despite my struggles. "We'll use you"

"I'll never work for Hydra, never" I snarl at him and he just laughs.

"You don't have a choice sweetheart" He smirks at me and I supress a shiver at his nickname.

"Release her"

I stare past Ward in to see Tony in his suit, aiming a blaster at his head. I'm shocked to see the famous billionaire and part of me is relieved to see him.

"Of course, Mr Stark" Ward says emotionlessly as he stares at me in the eyes, want in his eyes.

I'm officially creeped out.

Ward lowers his gun and steps away, Tony's suit arms immediately wrapping around me. He tells someone he has me and then we leave, blowing a hole in the ceiling.

"I'm sorry for being asshole" Tony speaks up after a few minutes of silence, his arms tighten around me as he carries me bridal style.

"It's okay, I'm pretty sure we're even after this" I laugh quietly and I hear him chuckle in the suit.

"Peter, Nat and T'challa are waiting for you back at the tower. They were worried about you, especially your...boyfriend" His voice goes uneven when he mentions Peter but I brush it aside to me mishearing him.

"Don't they think I killed those people? Well I know Peter doesn't but what about Natasha and T'challa?" I asked confused.

"We know you're innocent" Is all he says before we land just outside the tower.

"Crystal!!" Peter yells out as he comes running out and wraps me in his arms.

"Peter" I sigh in relief, happy to be back in my boyfriends' arms.

"I think we have a lot to talk about" Nat says firmly and I peek over Peter's shoulder to see her looking at me with a mix of emotions.

"I guess we do"
