A/N-THIS IS FOR LADYLAUFEYSON :)

Thor watched Fury step into the chamber where Loki's cell was over a video camera.

"What, here to threaten me with a new toy?" Loki asked.

"Not exactly." Fury clicked a button on the control panel and a projection showed up on the glass of Loki's cell.

Loki's eyes widened slightly at the sight of the image. "Erin. . ." He said under his breath.

"What is this?" Thor said in a low voice.

Erin was trapped in a room with small cracks in the walls through which beams of light shot through and hit her. Normal human weapons shouldn't hurt her like it was.

Fury took his finger off of a button and the lights receded. "Where is the tesseract?" He asked.

Loki pursed his lips and shook his head. "I don't know." He said quietly.

"I'm sure you don't." Fury said angrily, pressing the button. Erin screamed. "Gamma radiation. Very harmful when not prepared." Dr. Banner, who had been chewing on his fingernail, lowered his hands and stared, dumbfounded, at the screen.

"Fury!" Thor shouted, standing. Agent Hill blocked the doorway.

"What happened to the agreement?!" Thor yelled. Agent Hill shrugged.

"It's not broken. No one has laid a hand on her." She said.

"You are harming her!" Thor said, attempting to get past Hill.

"I wouldn't." She said, raising a hand to her ear. Thor faltered.

"Don't." Bruce said. Thor stepped back.

Looking back at the screen, Thor clenched his fists. Loki's eyes flashed with pain.

Erin stared at the cracks, her skin sparkling a faint blue. Thor saw this.

"You do not know what you have done." Thor said, glancing at Hill, who was watching a monitor intently.

"Oh, yes. Well, as you can see, your plans to get information out of me are backfiring." Loki said.

It seemed that no one but the two Asgardians could see the anger and betrayal flaring in Erin's ice colored eyes. She clenched her fists and looked straight at the camera.

Her skin flashed blue and her eyes turned red. She raised her hands and the walls froze over. A ball of ice grew in her hand and she threw it directly at the camera, cutting off the connection.

There was a slam that rang out through the entire ship.

"Well. This is going to be quite the show." Loki said, sitting on the bench in his cell.

Thor cursed and ran out the door. Banner crossed his arms.

"Well, doctor. Seems you're not the only one with anger problems." Stark said, a smirk in his voice.

Banner didn't reply. He just watched the screen closely as Erin entered the room, her skin flashing from pale to blue.

"That's right, sister. Let it happen." Loki muttered. Erin stepped towards Fury, who took out a handgun and shot at her.

Erin yelled as she leapt towards Fury, wrestling with him and creating an ice dagger.

Thor made his way to where Fury was. It was obvious that's where she would go.

"Erin!" Thor yelled. A blast of wind opened the door in front of him and he walked through.

He saw Erin standing with a blade of ice at Fury's throat. Loki watched from his cell silently.

"Erin. Put him down." Thor said quietly. Erin blinked, her eyes clouded. She said nothing as she dropped the dagger, which melted before it moved an inch.

Erin's eyes cleared and she dropped Fury. She looked around at the frost that thinly coated everything.

"Damn it!" She clenched her fists and ran from the room, sending one glance back at Loki, who stood watching, a hand flat on the glass.

Thor followed her out and put a hand on her shoulder. "Erin-"

"Do not touch me!" She screamed, wrenching away from Thor's grip, breathing heavily. "I am a monster . . ."

Thor shook his head but came no closer. "No you are not, sister. You are simply-"

"There is nothing simple about me, Thor. There never has been. You should not have brought me here." Erin said. Thor shrugged.

"You are here now. And you might be able to help us." He said. Erin sighed and nodded. Thor led her to where the other Avengers were waiting.
