True Form (Avengers x Reader)

-14-

We went to the kitchen island in the common room and saw the rest of the team, who prepared breakfast. Their faces faltered slightly at the sight of Steve and send questioning glances at us.

"Don't-" Wanda warned, but I quickly said, "no, it's fine, Wanda." I turned to Thor, Loki, Bruce, Pietro and Peter and explained, "I was training and Steve startled me, so I accidentally punched him in the face."

Loki's eyes lit up and he smiled mischievously. "I like her."

Thor rolled his eyes. "Of course, brother."

After breakfast, everyone minded their own business, but suddenly JARVIS announced, that I was requested by director Fury immediately.

Everyone's eyes widened and they turned to me with concerned faces. I just shrugged it off and got into the elevator, Yelena following me as always.

This time, I just greeted shortly and sat down as the director, agent Hill and another agent observed me.

"Before we start, this is agent Coulson, you only met once, when you outran his team," Fury said, then took out a manila folder.

"Now to the point of this meeting. We want to offer you a place in the Avengers initiative. Over the last weeks, we kept a close eye on you and we believe you would be a very valuable asset to the team."

I just stared at him for a moment. Did they really want me on the team? I always thought they were just being nice to get information about HYDRA.

"I.. Wait? I don't even know how to fight," was the first thing I answered.

"We watched every footage of you. You may not be the best in hand to hand combat, but you're very good at planing and strategizing how to succeed with what you want. You've proven that when you escaped and in the game a few days ago as well," agent Coulson explained.

"And if I don't want? I mean, maybe you forgot about it, but you guys kinda put like a shock collar on me," I stated. Of course I wanted to be an official member, especially since they all seemed to like me, but I also wanted an apology. At least.

"Well, we hoped you would accept. We can't let you run free, since HYDRA would take you at the first opportunity, so we would have to keep you at a SHIELD base, save but confined," agent Hill said. "And we are sorry about the methods we used to keep you from running, but I hope you can understand why we did it."

I did understand it, but they could have kept me from running without it. However, I got my apology, so I decided I would just let it be before I would get into trouble for being annoying.

"Yeah okay, that's not much of a choice, is it," I stated. "Guess I go with the first option then."

"Just sign this. And welcome to the Avengers initiative, miss l/n," Fury said when I signed everything.

Suddenly, a certain guy with bow and arrow crashed down onto the table, making agent Hill and Yelena pull out a gun and everyone else jumping back.

"Congratulations y/n!" He shrieked.

"What the fuck! Why were you spying on us?!" I exclaimed.

"Not my idea," he shrugged. "The others wanted to make sure you're okay."

"Whatever, go clarify that outside. You're dismissed," Fury rolled his eyes, well eye because, yeah..

I quickly made my way into the common room and saw Tony frantically turning off a screen. Yelena and I crossed our arms over the chest and narrowed our eyes at them.

"It's not what it looks like," Sam quickly said.

"Looks like spying on us to me."

"Okay it is what it looks like.. but we needed to make sure you're okay," Pietro defended.
