He smirked. "I'd like to see you try.''

I rolled my eyes. "Sir, this is a life or death matter at hand. I'm going to need an answer now."

He frowned. "That was not a good persuasion."

I raised an eyebrow. "Would you rather my violent persuasion?" I growled.

His eyes got wide and he looked down. "I-I..er..no." I smirked as he answered my original question. "Yes, I'll join Fury's super secret boyband." He flashed a cheeky grin at me as I rolled my eyes.

"Good.." I mumbled as I turned on my heel and walked away.

"Wait." He said, I turned around.

"I want to know more about this."

Oh! I completely forgot why I brought the iPad. Ha.

"Right." I handed him the iPad. And he turned it on, the files immediately popping up.

"I have to go now." I said and awkwardly left, the jet waiting on the roof.

One thought raced through my head as I boarded.

That was freaking awkward.

I sighed happily as I walked out of my room with jeans and a "Fun." Tee shirt. I was also wearing my blue all-star converse, my acoustic guitar in hand.

I made my way down to the lab where Bruce was working.

"Hey Brucey." I smirked at my nickname for him that he hated.

"Hello, Sky." He mumbled, moving around beakers with weird-smelling liquids in them around and writing in his notebook.

I sat down on the chair and started tuning my guitar, asking Bruce, "Any requests?"

"Hmm.." He hummed, not looking up from his work. "Artist's choice."

I smiled. "Nice choice." And started strumming the tune to "Carry On" by Fun. that I learned off a computer tutorial. I didn't remember the exact lyrics, so I just jumped in at the parts I remembered.

"If you're lost and alone, or you're sickened by a stone, carry o-o-o-o-ooonn.." I started. "May your past be the sound, of your feet upon the ground, carry Oo-o-o-o-ooon.."

"Carry on, carry on!" Bruce and I sang together.

We sang the rest the most of the song together and chuckled, until a voice called out names over the intercom.

"Bruce Banner, Natasha Romanova and Skylar James to the control panel (idk if its called that but whatever xD) please I repeat Bruce Banner, Natasha Romanova and Skylar James to the control panel please."

Bruce frowned and I groaned. "Lets goo.." I whined as I slipped myself under the guitar strap and positioned it so the back was against my back and dragged myself out of the room, Bruce following, down to the control room.

Soon we entered a room where there was a big table where non-other than Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanova, and,-oh joy- Tony Stark.

Fury was at the head of the table.

"You took your sweet time, miss James." Fury rolled his..er..eye.

"Because, you're going to talk about something boring like always, whenever you call us down here its for some "important" meeting when it's really about someone not turning the lights off or something." I scoffed, sitting down and sipping from my water bottle I had gotten from the cafeteria on the way here.

"Actually, this is very important." Fury shot me a look and I held my hands up in defense before taking another sip of water.

"As you may have known, Barton's been compromised. Loki has him." At this point I had gasped mid-swallow and started choking. Bruce, who was sitting behind me had to pat my back for a minute before I could speak.

"What?!" I quickly said, "Thanks Bruce." Before continuing. "Why was I not told this?!"

"You just were." Fury said, obviously annoyed, before he told us how Loki had came in and stole the tesseract.

"Alright, this sounds like mission for them, why are the scientists here?" I asked, gesturing to me and Bruce. "And what if I- I-I mean /he/," I gestured to Bruce again. "Gets angry? No offense."

"None taken."

"Because, Skylar, we need your help. You, Bruce and Tony will help find the tesseract and fight using your abilities." Fury answered. "And if he gets angr-"

Suddenly, a voice cut him off.

"We got a hit!"

They found Loki.
