Lillie hadn't been in school for almost a month now. She had no intention of wanting to go back to school. She didn't see a point in it. Surely, Marshall would have heard about what happened or thought her dead.

While Lillie didn't care much, Catherine did not feel the same. She worried about her daughter's education.

Fury came into check on her one day but also taunt her some. "Well, Catherine how are you enjoying your last few weeks," Catherine looks up at him with a glare. Fury drops the tray of food and shoves it some causing it to glide across the prison ground to Catherine. She shoves the disgusting food away from her. Fury smirks some and starts to walk out.

"Fury wait!!" shouted Catherine. Fury turns back around. "I know Lillie hasn't been in school. Why have you kept her from school?"

"Well, why would we let her out into the world with her abilities? Can't have her threatening to control the city and kill innocent citizens. Sound familiar?" Fury asked with cruel tone at the end of his claim.

"Judging a child by lineage, how caring of you." She shoots back at him

"When they lineage is only corrupt and tainted with killing, betrayal, lies...shall I go on?" Catherine huffs looking down before standing and walking to the bars.

"I don't want to start a fight. Only wanting to know, you won't let her go to real school. Then you must have a form of schooling here for her," Fury stares at her. Catherine watched him intently.

"Catherine, we actually do. Your daughter will have the best teachers that know even more than you and Loki combined."

40 minutes later

"You want us to do what now?!?!" asked Tony.

"Look Catherine wants her daughter to get an education. Fine... but not out there where she is a danger to everyone. We watched Catherine and Lillie for some time before their capture. Lillie cannot control her powers completely. She's caused great damage and even almost killed someone. So, she will be taught by the best teachers we have," everyone looks at Fury like he has lost his mind. But they all agreed to it. Tony walks over to the fridge and pulls out a few drinks.


A few hours pass. Lillie gets a knock at her door. She slowly gets up and the door swishes opens. Thor walks in with a big smile on his face. "Good morning Lillie," Lillie looks at the clock.

"It's almost 11 in the morning.What's this about?" asked Lillie skeptically.

"Come out and see," Lillie gets out of bed. She quickly changes into a t-shirt and jeans. Thor leads her to a room. In there was a single desk and a board. Lillie looks up at Thor confused. She looks over to see coming into the room was a partially drunk Tony Stark with a briefcase. He pulls out a small remote and turns on a holographic projector. A picture of mathematical equation pops up.

"Welcome to math class. Please sit," said Tony.

"What?!" Lillie looks up at Thor.

"Your mother wanted you to keep having an education. We didn't think you would want to return to school. So, welcome to your first class," Lillie looks shocked at Thor.

"No.." she turns and starts marching out. Thor grabs her arm, keeping her from leaving.

"Lillie," she looks up at him, annoyed with this. "Give it a chance. I believe...you may like this more than regular school."

"How? Being taught by Iron Man and other Avengers that put my Father where he is now?!" Tony pushes his sunglasses down staring at Lillie.

"Oh. I'm sorry!" he cuts in. "Next time we will allow a crazed maniac to destroy the world and become our overlord," Lillie turns her head to him with an all too familiar glare.

"My Father wasn't a crazed maniac!" She starts to lunge at him before Thor stopping her and looking at Tony.

"There is no need for that Stark. Please.." Tony scoffs and pushes back up his shades. Thor turns back to Lillie, kneeling down to her height of five foot two inches. "Please, try this for me," Lillie looks down. She didn't want to admit it, but she did appreciate having Thor there for her. He's been helping her to see her Father and letting her know about her Mother.

"Fine...." Thor smiles and stands straight.

"Thank you..." Thor leaves giving Lillie a notebook with plenty of paper and pencils.

"Go ahead Tony." Lillie says slumping in the desk.

"In here you will call me Mr. Stark," Tony says with slight malice in his voice. After the door swishes shut, Tony sits in his chair and lays back. Lillie stares at him, blinking in confusion.

"Excuse me 'Mr. Stark' aren't you supposed to be teaching math?" Lillie asked sarcastically. Tony looks up.

"What's two plus two?"

"Four."

"Congratulations you know the basis of math. Class dismissed," Tony kicks his feet up in his desk and gets comfortable in the chair. Lillie rolls her eyes, gets up with her notebook, and leaves the room. Thor sees her leave early and walks over to her.

"Already done with mathematics?"

"Yap, Mr. Stark said I know the basis," Thor excorts her to her classes.

She is taught history by Steve Rogers. She actually enjoyed his class. Steve didn't seem to care about her origins and treated her like she was just a child with amazing abilities.

Science is taught by Bruce Banner. Lillie usually enjoyed science, mostly the chemistry aspect of it, but she didn't seemed focused on the lessons. Time to time she would ask or mention gamma radiation to mess with him but also understand. As the Hulk, he did give Loki quite the beating so that added her mischief against him. But, she also knew of troubles he had on control while being the Hulk so...she couldn't help but to feel some pity for the scientist.

She had P.E. with Clint Barton and Natasha Romanov. Lillie absolutely hated this. Natasha and Clint were making her go through these obstacles. Training her speed and reflexes. She felt so exhausted by the end of it. Even if Clint was controlled by Loki for a time, he didn't treat Lillie any different. He treated her like he would his own children. Natasha was the same way. Unknown to Lillie, Natasha was actually good friends with Catherine. It is possible she felt sorry for Lillie and tries to be a good role model for her as, she doesn't know what else to really do.

Finally, Thor taught her about the nine realms and the history behind them. By far, this was Lillie's favorite. She knew most of everything already from her readings of Norse Mythology. But, hearing it from Thor on how real it was, fascinated her more. How bad she now longed to see the rainbow bridge and city of gold.

Lillie got to visit her father after her classes. She seemed to be exhausted mostly from Natasha and Clint. But, also some gleaming curiosity in her eyes. Loki sees this and frowns softly.

"Have a hard day?" Loki asked jokingly.

"You have no idea." Lillie says slumping down by him.

"What happened?"

"School."
