You, Sev, Bucky and Thor headed towards the main meeting room once you were all finished. You texted Steve to rally up the rest of the avengers so you could tell them all what you discovered at the party. Stephen had informed Fury who had told everyone small snippets including the fact that he was now in possession of a dark object which you had used at the party. Walking in, you handed Seven over to Thor and made your way to the head of the table as everyone started walking in.

"Thanks Steve." You said earning a smile from him as he sat down.

"Right so let's get started" you exhaled looking at everyone. "So, as you all know, the party mission went—"

"Where's reindeer games?" Tony asked looking around at everyone.

"Sleeping" you replied before opening your mouth to carry on with what you were saying.

"Busy night was it?" He chuckled nudging Steve.

"Let's just focus on the matter at hand." You smiled politely, remaining calm.

"He's probably really tired." Steve added.

"Can we just focus" you snapped making everyone's eyes fall back onto you "thank yo—"

"Someone woke up on the wrong side of bed this morning" Tony muttered.

"I'm surprised she woke up at all, she asked me to babysit last night." Nat teased.

"I walked past her room last night and from what I heard they—"

Everyone's voices blended into one as you tried to just keep your breathing even. It felt overwhelming. You felt as if you couldn't breathe. You placed the palms of your hands on the table before everything became too much.

"CAN EVERYONE SHUT THE F UP, you're all being so effing grotesque." You shouted, halting all the laughter.

"I like how you're keeping it PG" Bruce remarked making everyone start laughing again as you tried to take deeper breaths.

"The next person who talks over y/n will get this dagger" Loki warned, stepping into the room as he conjured a dagger "through the heart." The room fell silent as he confidently strode in, commanding the room as always. He gave you a tight lipped smile prompting you to continue talking as he sat next to Thor and took Seven from him, conjuring a colouring book and some pens to distract her with whilst you spoke.

"Thank you Loki" you said nonchalantly with a quick smile before speaking again. "The mission didn't go according to plan as you all know. On the bright side, Stephen and I managed to find out the name of the ring leader who likely is the one targeting us as he has the most access to all the dark objects and is the one that distributes them. He goes by the name Scar."

Tony put his hand up before speaking. "Why the name?"

"He's got a scar on his face, apparently he's self conscious of it." You replied.

"How did the mission turn sideways?" Steve asked.

"During the auction, Stephen and I noticed some of the guards looking at us and whispering amongst themselves. Somehow they must have recognised us or realised we weren't the real Quinn's, either way, a confrontation occurred and I seized a dark object which was a sword from the front of the room and we fought before SHIELD finally turned up and took the remaining guards into custody." You explained.

"Meaning that anyone who got away could have access to this Scar and could have told them what happened which means they could either be moving out or planning another attack knowing that we're onto them." Steve concluded.

"Exactly, the possible scenarios are endless which is why we need to stay vigilant and ensure we're the ones going to them before they come to us. This means that I'm going to need a SHEILD team dedicated to locating Scar and any known associates. I understand that there are other things going on in the world including the fact that there was a literal alien in London, we can't all just focus on this all the time but I will also need a couple of you." You added.

"Whatever you need." Tony nodded.

"If this gets out of hand, which I'm hoping it won't, we may need to call some reinforcements." You commented.

"They are both in Scotland y/n, a phone call away." Nat added.

"Do we still have eyes on the Falcon Steve?" You asked.
"Yes." He nodded.

"What about the man who's with Pym's daughter? Didn't he help you all out once or something?"

"How do you even know about these people?" Bruce asked.

"I kept my tabs whilst I was away" you smiled "let's hope reinforcements wont be needed, wouldn't want to drag anyone else into this mess.
