Meanwhile

Deanna/Coral lay silently on her back, her eyes trained on the ceiling above her. Her ankles were crossed right over left and her hands were interlinked and resting on her stomach. The girls breathing was even and often, her eye lids fluttering once in a while before blinking.

"If you're here to question me you might as well leave." The blonde spoke just as the door slid open, her eyes never leaving the white above her. The person entering never murmured a word, placed something on the end of the bed before leaving once again and locking the door.

Frowning Deanna/Coral sat up and looked towards where the package was lying. On the end of the bed lay a photo album. Gingerly the curious blonde picked up the album and shuffled back so her back was against the wall. On the front of the album lay the words 'Deanna aka Mockingbird'.

Slowly, the girl opened to the first page where a few quotes were written (A/N: Some are going to be ones you've read others one you haven't. They aren't in a particular order either):

"Hawkward!"- Deanna, first time we met.

"It's like follow the yellow brick road!"- Deanna, escaping from Asgard.

"People need to learn to keep their mouths shut or I'll sow them together."- Deanna, after finding all of S.H.E.I.L.D knew something that was supposed to be between the Avengers, Angel, Mockingbird and Maria Hill.

"Adrenaline, it feels amazing."- Deanna, during a high speed car chase.

Frowning slightly the blonde turned the page again to be greeted with a group photo. She along with Bethany/Peggy stood in the centre with the Avengers surrounding them, all smiling at the camera. Fury and Agent Ingley also stood in the photo, the youngest blonde and brunette looking fairly young.

With another turn of the page Deanna/Coral was greeted with another group photo, but not all of the Avengers were present. Instead it was a photo of Deanna/Coral, Bethany/Peggy, Jamelah Ingely and Natasha Romanoff. They see all smiling it's their arms around one another.

Another page turn and the blonde was greeted with two single photos. One of herself dressed differently with the caption 'Mockingbird' underneath it; the second of Bethnay/Peggy in a different outfit with the caption 'Angel' under it, both captions surrounded by a cloud like shape.

Another flick over the page and the pictures changed to several pictures of weapons and cars, each with their own little captions. The final page was a picture of the Avengers with small noted surrounding it.

"Baby bird."- Tony Stark aka Ironman.

"You're like a sister to me."- Clint Barton aka Haweye.

"Language."- Steve Rodgers aka Captain America.

"Lady Chalmers."- Thor Odinson.

"Fighting is getting us no where."- Bruce Banner aka The Hulk.

"An assassin in training."- Natasha Romanoff aha Black Widow.

"You're a good Agent."- Director Nick Fury.

Slamming the book shut Deanna/Coral gasped as a sharp sudden pain made its way into her head. The blonde cried out, threw the book to one side of the room before scrambling off the bed and goths opposite side of the small contained room. Her eyes screwed closed as she held her head between her hands.

Clint jogged into the room and grabbed the girls wrists as she cried. "Hey, hey, hey." He cooed quietly. "It's okay, you're okay."

"Clint?"

"Yeah it's me." The older archer sighed in relief. "Open your eyes, we need to get you to your room."

"What, what happened?" Deanna asked. "Why am I in here?"

"We'll explain when you wake up."
