I own only Jen.

Jen's POV-

Much to my displeasure I was forced to stay behind. It was a simple retrieval mission so Loki and Bruce stayed back with with me. We went waiting on top of the roof when I snapped. They kept staring at me and I couldn't take it anymore. "What do you want?" I hissed furiously. "Why do you both keep staring at me?"

"Calm down, Jen," Loki said. "You're drunk."

"I'm fine," I snapped. "My metabolism is too fast to get drunk with only a dozen or so bottles of vodka. Why are you staring at me?" I snarled once more.

Bruce and Loki stared at each other nervously. "Well," Bruce began hesitantly, "why didn't you tell or show anyone?" he asked, motioning to my scars.

I sighed, "It's bad enough that I have fighting skills, how would they react if they found out that I was an assassin as well?" I confessed to them.

They both shrugged. "That's true," Loki admitted.

"But when will you tell them?" Bruce asked.

I shook my head and slumped my shoulders. "When they return with the Chitauri, I fear they will realize. After all," I grinned ruefully, "I think that it will raise some question that I will understand what that thing says," I confide to them.

"You can speak Chitaurian!?" Loki gasped, astonished. "How is that possible?" he wondered.

"I speak every language known to man and beast. After all, I was required to go everywhere and how can I find out the information needed to kill if I didn't know what they were saying," I responded.

Before they could say anything, the sound of the Quin jet grew louder. It appeared in the sky and landed. I strolled to them and awaited as the rest of the Avengers came forward. Just as they were about to talk, I held up a hand. "Tony, is there an interrogation or holding cell somewhere in the building?" I asked.

"Yeah," he told me. "On the one of the sub-levels."

"Bring it there," I told Thor and Clint. They both nodded and left.

"May I ask why you are doing thing?" Tony spoke up.

"I have to speak to it. I need to find out his numbers and his battle plans. He is a scout. They are tasked with finding out weaknesses. He will know the exact amount of soldiers and the plans and if not that," I turned to face them, "at least a rough estimate."

"What will you do when you get the information?" Nat asked. "And how do you plan to receive this information?"

I gave them a grim smile. "Any means necessary. Oh, and Tony and Loki, you two probably shoudln't watch this," I told them softly. "PTSD is a bitch."

I left the rooftop and the Avengers and Loki in complete confusion. I walked to the elevators. "Could you take me to the sub-level with the Chitauri scout?" I asked JARVIS.

"Right away," he replied.

Natasha's POV-

We all watched as the girl left the rooftop. We all formed a circle. "What do you think she means?" I asked everyone. "What did she mean by 'any means?'"

Everyone but Loki and Bruce shook their heads. I wasn't the only one who saw them. "Do you know something?" Steve asked them.

"She is very determined in this cause," Loki said, avoiding the question.

"How determined? And why would she ask us to not be there?" Tony asked to him.

Bruce and Loki looked at each other. "What is the one thing we have in common?" he asked Tony softly. "You were held captive for months and what did they do to you?"

Before Tony could say anything, Bruce said, "And don't you think that Loki wasn't in the best shape when he came here, right? And what did she say to Thor when she first came? That he doesn't know the eye color of his brother."

"What's your point?" I snapped.

"Clint's eyes were a different color when he was put under the Tesseract's mind control," Bruce reminded us. "Jen may have-"

"Shut up!" Loki hissed. He sighed. 'I have to go. I suggest you come before you open your big mouth. We made a deal, don't break it."

I watched as Bruce and Loki both left. They were talking as they walked away and at one point, Loki turned to face him. He gabbed at him and motioned with his hands furiously. "Looks like they're having a domestic," I chuckled.

"Hardly," Tony said. "Loki is so in love with Jen. I mean, he was a wreck when she was gone and he stayed with her through the night," he pointed out. Steve and I both nodded in agreement. "Now, come on," he skipped away. "Let's see what she means."

A/N-This next chapter will get really graphic. Just a warning.
