Loving Marianna

Chapter Forty

Warning: slavery, violence

"So what have you found?" I question Fury about the USB from the other night plopping down next to Coulson holding my hand out to him.

"Marianna Yanis, sorry I couldn't give a proper introduction when we met."

"Phil Coulson, don't worry about it. Thanks for getting me out of there." He smiles shaking my hand.

"So the USB?" I raise an eyebrow looking to Fury.

He smirks before saying, "ready to get some slavers, Huntress?"

Time skip

We pull up to a large building secluded and surrounded by trees. There are no other buildings around for at least 50 miles.

We step out of the car and I turn to Fury, "you're sure there are no innocent people in there?"

"In a minute there won't be." He beckons towards a door and a woman runs out. I pull out my gun and go to aim it but Fury stops me.

"Shes an agent Yanis, stand down. She made sure this building has no innocents. Just slavers. So why don't you show us what you're made of?"

I wait for the agent to get to us before stepping forward and taking a deep breath before directing my scream at the building. I keep screaming watching the building crumble before me. Hearing the screams of all the people inside I can't help but feel a sense of justice. I don't stop until there is nothing left but rubble and dust taking a huge gasp of air when I do.

"Nice work." Fury nods his head approvingly.

"Impressive." The woman looks in awe.

"I already knew you were deadly." Coulson laughs.

"Thanks. I'm Marianna." I hold out my hand to the woman.

"Melinda." The woman shakes my hand with a small smile. We get into the car and head to our next target.

There are innocent people inside of this building so we do exactly what we did the first time, Fury shows me someone I shift into them, free the enslaved aliens and have Stephen bring everyone home after. We do this all day until we pull up in front of the biggest fanciest building.

"This is the last one. This is where the heads of the slavers meet. There's no innocent people so all you have to do is bring it down Yanis." I step out of the car and am immediately shot at. I deflect the bullets with a scream waiting for the shooting to stop before I step up take a deep breath and obliterate the building without hesitation.

"Mort aux esclavagistes." I say spitting on the ground and turning around with a jump when I see Fury.

"Shit I didn't think you came out of the car."

"What did you say?" He questions.

"Death to the slavers." I slightly smirk.

"A bit morbid no?" He raises an amused eyebrow.

"No." I answer immediately.

"If it were a bunch of innocent people, that'd be a completely different story. If you let scum like this live they'll only spread their greed, ignorance, and hate."

"Agreed." He smirks before ducking back into the car. I would have Stephen come and get me but I surprisingly enjoy Fury's company and after driving around with them all day I think I'm going to like Melinda and Coulson too.

"Thanks for the ride!" I smile as we get to the tower. I get all my stuff but pause before closing the door.

"Thanks for everything Fury." I close the door not waiting for a response. Once I step off the elevator I'm immediately greeted being scooped into the air by my handsome Blonde God.

"Welcome home beautiful!" Thor booms with the biggest smile.

"Hello my love I missed you." I say before kissing his cheek. He puts me down and crosses his arms.

"You know I'm going to need more then that." He pouts. I laugh and pull him to me gripping his hair and kiss him fully.

"Mm thanks." He says licking his lip.

"Anytime handsome." I wink.

I go and take a quick shower absolutely exhausted. I smile at my sleeping mates as I climb into bed in between Pietro and Tony.

I wake up to a very faint sound of yelling voices. I shoot up out of bed and rush to the noise. None of my mates were in bed and it's not like it's late. On normal days Bruce has never woken up before me, I pick up the speed my thoughts making me anxious.

I breathe a sigh of relief when I see it's just my mates arguing. As soon as someone spots me the arguing dies down and everyone turns to look at me. Those who are not apt at concealing their emotions look guilty.

I look to Peter (P) he's the easiest to break.

"What were you guys fighting about?"

"N-nothing." He looks over to Loki. I look over to Loki.

"Is there something wrong?" I raise an eyebrow.

"Just a squabble about time spent with you darling." He smiles obviously lying.

"That's one shitty lie. Will someone just tell me what the fuck is going on?"

"Loki asked us our opinions on proposing to you." Natasha rolls her eyes. Loki immediately makes copies and surrounds Natasha, Nat pulls out her weapons in defense. I rush to the real Loki and put my hand to his chest, "stop." And he does.

"Why would you tell her?!" He screams.

"Because it's not happening anyways so it doesn't matter." She answers simply.

"Notice how you said I asked your opinions. Not I asked you to tell me what I can or cannot do." He bites back.

"You're just selfish." Tony speaks up angrily.

Loki laughs, "that's Gold. Stark calling me selfish."

"You are. You didn't consider for a second that Marianna hasn't even had the chance to be with everyone intimately yet. You didn't consider the fact that maybe those of us with limited time aka those of us who don't get to live past approximately 85 and that's generous for me, might want a crack at it first! You didn't consider the fact that Marianna has said she's not ready for children. What makes you think she's up to bat for marriage yet?! You are selfish Loki. You came and asked us our opinions but let's be honest. You were going to propose whether we liked it or not if she hadn't just walked in."

"Yes Stark you are right I would've. And I still am." He drops down on one knee.

"Marianna Anastasia Yanis, this is not at all how I pictured myself doing this, but I've known since even before the day I met you that my heart would belong to you forever. You are my guiding light, my best friend, my life. Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?"
