Chapter 28 Calida Pov

"Thank you Stark for finally bringing us in on an investigation that we've personally been building and working on for the last 10 years." Fury says very sarcastically. Tony salutes him with a condescending smirk, then Fury turns to me and says, "May I remind you; you can be put under arrest for divulging sensitive information."

Shocked I say, "I was already under arrest and being held captive when they obtained the usb."

Fury narrows his eye at me and says, "and you expect me to believe that they were able to get past the encryption on their own?"

"pfft... yea... I mean, Bruce and Tony are geniuses." I chuckle nervously. I never was very good at lying and fury knows this. he turns away from me, giving up.

Once we got back from Germany, and we were able to go through the evidence found, Steve and Nat thought it would be best to call in Fury and tell him everything we know. at this point, things are getting out of hand, were no closer to catching Kai and his associate and the explosion that happened at the gala a few days ago killed 3 people and injure 8.

Fury is not happy with me telling them everything, but if we were ever going to catch Kai and put a stop to this program, we need all hands-on deck. A few moments after Rumlow, Maria and Desiree walks in and take a seat, the meeting can now officially start. it doesn't go unnoticed that Desiree seats herself next to Bucky.

I try my best not to glare at the two and fail miserably. But when I do happen to look up at Bucky, he is already glaring at me and Loki, who has conveniently taken the seat next to mine. I roll my eyes and turn back to fury, who is going over what he knows about Kai and this Dr. Khaleed, which isn't much. As Bruce told us, this doctor like to keep a low profile. fury says he doesn't even have a speeding ticket. He tells us how he volunteers and donates to the children shelter every year which is scary. Wanda raises her hand and ask, "could this be where he is recruiting girls?"

Fury says, "I don't think so. Have you ever heard the term, 'never shit where you eat?' if he has worked to keep his nose clean this long, I doubt he will choose children right in his own backyard."

Nat says, "it makes sense. I mean, who would suspect a man that "lives" to protect children. It's the perfect cover."

I say, "all of this is great, but without real proof, were still no closer to catching, him, Dreykov, the Contessa or even kai. And their looking for him too."

Desiree says, "you two use to date right? it was pretty serious... you should know better than all of us how his mind work. what do you think his next move would be?"

I almost jump over the table and punched the bitch. I stare at her as she places a hand on Buckys arm. I can feel my powers rising in me. my face begin to grow hot and just as I'm about to set this bitch on fire a cold hand is placed on my thigh. For a second I'm distracted as I look down and see a blue hand griping me. I look up at Loki who is watching Tony defend me.

I turn to look towards the front as Tony remind Desiree that I was undercover and any information I could give, ive already done it. then Loki breath is in my ear as he whispers, "your eyes are glowing darling."

I flinch and close my eyes tightly as I get a grip on my powers. The last thing I want is for fury to think I'm losing control and he has me locked up for safety precautions. It takes me a few minutes to calm myself down and when I do finally open my eyes and take a look around, I see bucky still glaring at Loki and Wanda watching me closely. When we make eye contact she mouths, 'are you ok?'

I just nod and turn my attention back to the front where Tony, Steve, maria, Rumlow and Fury are arguing about what the best move should be at this point. Fury thinks that it would be best to send a team to Louisiana. He believes that the Haitians down there might know more than they are letting on. he says, "plus this would be a good time to connect with some of the Contessa's team."
