The Asgaurdian Princess And The Soldier

Chapter Nine

*Steve's Point of View*

I looked just to see Dr. Banner and Cassandra fall through the hole in the floor.

"Put on the suit," I commanded Tony getting up.

"Yep," he said getting up as well.

*Cassandra's Point of View*

I felt a peice of metal fall in my leg. I almost screamed in agony but held it back and looked at Bruce he was becoming very angry.

"Bruce," I said calmly," it's gonna be alright. Shh. We will get out of this. I swear,"I urged

"YOU SWEAR," His voice came out un-human. A couple SHIELD agents came running in. I threw my hand up and an ice wall grew inbetween us and the agents. Bruce began to turn green. He was growing in size as well. I kept pulling my leg from the metal until it came free. I screamed as the I pulled it out it definitely had something wrong with it. I began to run from what is now the hulk. I turned to look at him. He looked back and he still had Bruce's eyes. The brown eyes had an apologetic look in them. I nodded and turned and ran. The hulk began smashing everything in its path. It nearly smashed me from time to time until Thor showed up swinging his hammer everywhere.

"Go to Loki," Thor commanded. I nodded and took off towards the detention level.

I got there only to find him running Coulson through.

"Loki," I screamed. He looked up at me and snarled. He used his power to throw me up against the wall next to Coulson.

"You're going to loose," Coulson said weakly.

Loki explained how he didn't see how he could occasionally stealing glances at me.

"You have a lack of conviction," soon after Coulson said that the giant gun he was holding went off. Loki disappeared. "So that's what it does," Coulson joked smiling weakly.

"Stay with me Phil. Come on please. The team needs you. They need someone to believe in them," I begged.

"They have you now your - Cassandra,"he said fading fast. Tears were streaming down my face. Over the past couple days we had become extremely close. His grip on the gun was soon no more. I saw the light leave his eyes. I began to cry even harder.

"Coulson. Coulson! No please come back. Please," I begged placing a hand on his face. I felt a calloused hand land on my shoulder. I looked behind me and saw Fury. He helped me up. I raced out of the room. I ran into my room and locked it. I slid down the locked door and slid my knees up to my face and continued crying. I couldn't believe that so much could happen in one day.

After a little while, someone knocked on the door.

"Ma'am? You in there?" It was Steve.

"Um yeah I am. Just a minute," I called feebly. Stading up and turning to face the door I unlocked it. I opened it and Steve stepped in. He looked as if he was trying to hide all emotion. His blue eyes gave away what he was feeling. Guilt, sadness, and pain. Just one look and I broke down all over again. He just took me up in his arms and held me tight. I stayed there feeling for the first time since I came here protected and safe from harm. I soon felt myself fall into a nightmare filled sleep.
