Tony Stark's Sister

Demoted

Katherine POV
I sat handcuffed at the interrogation table occasionally glancing at the two armed guards that stood on either side of me.

"So is this like the British guard thing or do you guys actually talk?", that comment earned me a glare from one of the guards and the other didn't even react. "Can one of you at least explain what's going on here? Like, I get I'm arrested and what not but this isn't what I thought prison would be like" just then I heard the door swing open and and in walked a tall man dressed all in black with an eyepatch over one eye.

"Who the hell is that?" I question the guards, who instead of answering me haul me up out of my seat by my armpits. The eyepatch man walks past me to the other side of the table and nods at me "you may be seated" in an instant the security officers drop me back into my chair. I fall roughly onto my chair, "sorry, it's protocol to stand when a higher ranking official enters the room, I'm director Fury" eyepatch states matter a factly. "Was that really necessary?" I shoot back, he smiles teasingly "maybe not but it was fun to annoy you".

I cross my arms and glare at him, actually scratch that I try to cross my arms but it's impossible to do in handcuffs. I hear him chuckle as he watches me struggle to figure it out. "Something funny cyclops?" I snap at him getting more annoyed by the second "no need for the sass Ms. Stark" he calmly states while taking out a file from a drawer in the desk.

My stomach drops at that name, instantly all sarcasm and jokes are off and the only thing I'm concerned about is that name.

"Who told you that was my name?" I demand "don't play coy with me Katherine-" "Kat" I correct "right, Kat, we both know who you are, no matter how hard you try to hide it". "I have no idea what you're talking about, my last name is Sanchez, that's what it says on my birth certificate" "I don't give a damn about the birth certificate you obviously forged". He reveals two certificates from the file one with the name Sanchez and the other that is labeled Stark. He looks at me waiting for a response.

"So?" I shrug "it's a misprint" "is the missing persons report matching your exact description a misprint too?" He asks picking through the file not even looking at me. "I guess so" I try to cover but know he can see right through me. He looks down at me completely unbothered "you've got the attitude of a Stark that's for sure" "shut your mouth!" I yell standing up but am quickly shoved back down into my seat by the guards.

"Calm down Ms. Stark...." He notices my look of anger "Ms. 'Sanchez'. Look, the reason you're here and not in a cell at a maximum security prison for the multitude of high level crimes you've committed is because I've got an offer for you". "What kind of offer?" "Community service of sorts, you've heard of the avengers?", I nod "well they could use your skill set of hacking and technology manipulation". "No. Way." I say immediately "alright" the director replies cooly and shuts the file and heads for the door "set up transport to The Raft and have her on the next chopper there."

He leans in as he passes me "I'll visit you in a 20 years to see if you regret your decision".

"Wait!" I shout, he pauses at the door and turns around "yes?" I sigh in defeat knowing I have no other option "I'll join the team" I grumble.

"I knew you'd come around" he walks over to me smiling triumphantly "although you won't be a full fledged member of the team" "I'm sorry, what?" I blurt out. He raises an eyebrow "you didn't think I'd let a criminal with your track record just join a team of heroes without some sort of training period did you?" "No I guess not" "good, so you'll have an SO who's command you'll be under and in your case he will also have full custody of you".

"Did you just say custody? I'm 18! In the eyes of the law I'm an adult" I tell him seriously "not anymore Katherine, as of right now you have the same rights as a minor with your acting legal guardians being either a high enough level official of SHEILD or your SO". "I can't believe this!!" I shout in protest "you can't do this!!"

"Would you rather be in prison?". That shuts me up and I look at the ground moodily "fine" i mutter and hastily sign the contract he slides over to me. "Who's going to be my SO anyway?" A grin crosses the directors face that I know doesn't bode well for me "Well Natasha Romanoff is a high enough ranking agent to act as your guardian, but your SO and main guardian will be, Tony Stark, or as you know him, your older brother".

"NO!!" I shriek jumping forward and getting held back by the guards. "You can't do this!! I choose prison!! Take me to jail!!" I scream at him. Fury doesn't look phased and simply waves his hand signaling to the guards to take me away. "It's too late you've made your decision Ms. Stark, no turning back now". I'd escaped my brother for 2 years, TWO YEARS!! And now I was being forced back into his control?! How did my life turn into this! I kick and fight the guards desperate to get away, I should've known it would've only made things worse.

"Oh and Ms. Stark since I see you're very intent on running away and I can't trust you to not make a run for it I'm going to have a tracker placed on you and you are not aloud out of avengers tower without adult-", he emphasizes the word adult to make sure I know he doesn't recognize me as one "supervision". "And by that I mean someone on the team or another agent, understood?". My anger takes ahold of me and I begin my fit of rage once again but I'm dragged out of the room and placed into a helicopter to be transported to my own personal hell before I can even get a word out against Fury.
