Chapter Twenty-Four: Duplicate

"Hey Thor, can I ask you a question?"

Thor turned from the TV and smiled, "Of course friend. What's your question?"

"Can Loki manipulate people's minds?"

Thor shook his head, "No. He can create illusions, but my brother can not manipulate people."

My shoulders fell in disappointment, "Do you know of anyone who can?"

Another shake of the head, "Okay, well thank you anyway. I'll catch up with you later." I walked away and towards the elevator.

The doors slid open and a smile stretched across my face, "Maria!" I tackled Agent Hill into a hug, "It's so good to see you."

She laughed and hugged me back, "It's good to see you too, Aurora."

I pulled back, "So what are you doing here?"

Maria waved a file, "Fury wants Steve and Tony to see these." The elevator doors opened to the conference floor, "I'll talk to you later Aurora."

I waved as the doors closed. I didn't exactly know what to do.

"You need to figure out who messed with our mind." Chaos appeared in the reflection of the elevator doors.

"I think I may have an idea." This time when I smiled, it was my own reflection smiling back at me.

"Isis, it's wonderful to see you again!"

I smiled, "Hey Justice, I need a favor."

She stopped short and gave me a tight lipped smile when she noticed I was in total work mode, "What is it?"

I had her sit down, "Justice, when I left how did Gabriel take it?"

Justice looked flustered, "Well, he was in this depressed state at first, but then he seemed to be getting better. He sometimes had angered outbursts."

I nodded, "Was there any possible way that Gabriel was experimented on as well?"

She shook her head, "What are you getting at Isis?"

I sighed, "You know that enemy guy who's been trying to kill me? Well, it's Gabriel. He's angry that I left him for the Avengers and he's trying to take away my abilities because then I can come back. The thing is, he has powers too." I looked Justice dead in the eye, "I need all the files on Gabriel that you can get your hands on. I'll get Tony on the rest."

"So wait, Gabriel is Anglos?" I nodded. She fell back into the chair, "Oh my god. You can't let him know about your Chthonic Magic, he'll use it to tear you apart and the entire world."

I laid my hand on top of hers, "I know. I can't promise it won't happen because he's working with Loki and Loki knows, but I can promise that I'll try my best to make sure he doesn't find out along with the Avengers."

Justice looked at me with her green eyes, sadness lining them, "Be careful Isis. I can't lose you too."

I gave her a sad smile, "I know." I helped her up, "Now, how about those files?"

>>>/<<<

"Tony, I need a favor?"

"Shoot."

I pressed the bluetooth earpiece and slipped my phone back into my pocket, "I need you to get everything you possibly can on Gabriel Dawson."

"Okay, JARVIS is searching. May I ask why you're looking up things on Anglos?"

"Because I believe that he was also experimented on or he somehow made himself this way. He couldn't have just obtained those powers. There had to be a helping factor." I shifted through files and stopped at an interesting one, "Tony, look up a lab accident in New Jersey 2011."

"JARVIS found a government file on..."

"On what?"

"On you Aurora. The Isis Project. It's an article about you."

"What does it say?"

Tony sighed, "It talks about the scientific marvel that the Super Soldier Serum worked again and you were a complete success, but when a doctor got near you, you brought the lab nearly completely down. The samples of your blood were stolen by the scientist's partner. Gabriel Krum."
