Third POV
Cheshire leads the way into the bridge of the ship. Dozens of agents sit in front of their viewing screens. Cheshire points Banner and Rodgers towards Fury before stalking towards Phil, who was reading something from his tablet. She quietly slips behind him and quickly grabs the set of cards within the depths of his jacket before slipping them in her own pocket and walking back towards Fury.
"Good, let's vanish." Steve and Banner walk through the glorious, gleaming bridge, standing near the large console. "Gentlemen." Fury greets. Cheshire's eyebrows raise as Steve gives Fury 10 bucks. Smirking she slinks behind Fury, eyes gleaming. Fury walks over Banner and extends his hand. Banner, reluctantly shaking it. "Doctor, thank you for coming."

"Thanks for asking nicely. So, uh... how long am I staying?" Banner asks awkwardly.

"Once we get our hands on the Tesseract, you're in the clear." Cheshire replies, causing the three of them to turn and look at her.

"Where are you with that?" Fury glances at Phil to explain, while Cheshire and Natasha eye an image of on several computer screens.

"We're sweeping every wirelessly accessible camera on the planet. Cellphones, laptops. If it's connected to a satellite, it's eyes and ears for us." He replies. Cheshire sneaks closer towards Fury's back but casually fiddles with one of the screens as he glances back at her.

"That's still not gonna find them in time." Natasha says suddenly.

"You have to narrow the field. How many spectrometers do you have access to?" Banner asks.

"How many are there?" Cheshire inquires.

"Call every lab you know, tell them to put the spectrometers on the roof and calibrate them for gamma rays. I'll rough out a tracking algorithm based on cluster recognition. At least we could rule out a few places. Do you have somewhere for me to work?" While Fury turns towards Natasha, Cheshire discreetly grabs the 10 dollars and nonchalantly wraps her arm around Banner's leading him towards the door.

"Let's go Doc, I'll show you all the toys." She says excitedly. As they walk towards the door, she whispers in Banner's ear, causing him to turn bright red. The group watches as the two of them turn the corner, Cheshire's laughter echoing throughout the hallway.



Timeskip~


As they are waiting to locate Loki using satellite facial recognition, Coulson and Steve stand side by side.

"I mean, if it's not too much trouble."

"No, no. It's fine." Cheshire watches as Phil reaches into his jacket pocket, and smirks as the shock ripples across his features.

"It's a vintage se-"

"We got a hit. Sixty-seven percent match. Weight, cross match, seventy-nine percent.

"Location?" Cheshire asks suddenly, her face blank. Phil quickly turns to glare at her in suspicion before looking at the agent speaking.

"Stuttgart, Germany. 28, Konigstrasse. He's not exactly hiding." Fury turned to look at Steve before facing Cheshire.

"You'll head there first, take Simmons." He stated, motioning for an agent to hand her a clothing bag. Cheshire raises an eyebrow before tuning to look at Simmons.

"Captain, you'll be up for some extra protection." Steve smiles at Cheshire and she grins in return.


GERMANY



casually glance up at the museum, my long train flowing behind me. Its stony walls stretched up towards the night sky, ivy slowly creeping up its side. Letting out a puff of air, I lift up the front of my dress and began to climb the stairs. On one of the last steps, my heel gets caught on part of my dress and I began to fall backwards towards the street.

"Son of a-"A hand quickly gripped my own and hauled me up and into a hard chest.

Glancing up, my eyes met his. He was dressed a slightly casual attire for a gala. The tip of his cane glowed a familiar blue.
"Are you all right?" He asked. My eyes narrowed slightly at his friendly tone. Why didn't he recognize me? I thought to myself.

"Yes, thank you." He stared at me almost curiously as I straightened my dress and flicked my hair back. Once again, I stared into his eyes before giving him a smile. "I'm...Angelica. And you are?"

His eyes gleamed for a second before stepping closer to me and offering his arm. "I am Alexander, and it seems as if a lady such as yourself needs assistance walking up the stairs. If I may?"

I fidget slightly and barely contain the smirk itching to stretch across my cheeks as I place my arm within his own and allow him to escort me into the Gala. We begin to chat as we enter the building and he helps me shrug off my jacket. Handing our jackets to a man, "Alexander" leads me into the Gala, the orchestra music filling my ears and sending tingles down my spine. Or were the tingles from his hand slowly moving towards my waist? Oh well. A smirk slowly grew upon the God's face as we descended into the ballroom. I glanced at my partner before looking down at the head doctor. I could feel his gaze on me and I turned to look back at him.

"What?" I asked, tilting my head. He stared a bit further before leaning in towards my ear.

"" I inhaled sharply and began to reach for one of my knives but he stopped me with the cane. It glowed even brighter and I exhaled raggedly as I lost feeling in my legs. Loki caught my limp body as I began to fall forward, pulling me closer to him. "Don't worry my queen, I just don't want you to get in the way." And then he was gone. My body hit the ground with a soft THUNK and the last thing I heard was the screams of the men and women downstairs before the blackness took over.


Yeah, it's short I'm sorry! But I'm finally on break and I wanted to give you all something. Let me know what you think!!
