Astra leaned on a wall watching her brother talk to Fury.

Dying. That word is so cold. No one likes it. Astra thinks of death quite often and it's bitter feeling. At age 6 both her parents, Howard and Maria Stark, where killed in a car accident.

Leaving only Tony and Astra. No, Tony wasn't too concerned with his sister. But those times they did spend together where great for her. Their stupid fights and when they would play SuperMario together. The best memories were when they would stargaze. But the older she got the less involved he was and the more stupid fights there where. Until Tony got back from Afganistán, and the holes in their relationship where patched up.

He's going to figure out a way to save himself. Astra told herself. But, she also wondered if he always knew he would die.

Natasha and Coulson walked past the worried sibling, she soon followed them. "Okay, you're good, right?" Fury repeatedly asked while Tony protested. "You got this? Right? Right?"

"Got what? I don't even know what I'm supposed to get."

"Natasha will remain a floater at Stark with her cover intact. And you remember Agent Coulson, right?"

"Yeah." Tony answered, not looking to excited.

"And Tony," Fury added. "remember, I got my eye on you."

"We've disabled all communications." Nat informed. "No contact with the outside world. Good luck." She then left, leaving only Tony, Astra, and Coulson.

"Please." Tony started, turning to face Coulson. "First thing, I need a little bodywork. I'll put in a little time in the lab. If we could send one of your goon squad down to The Coffee Bean, Cross Creek, for a Starbucks run, or something like that, that'd be nice."

"I'm not here for that." Coulson shook his head. "I've been authorized by Director Fury to use any means necessary to keep you on premises. If you attempt to leave, or play any games, I will tase you and watch Supernanny while you drool into the carpet. Okay?"

"I think I got it, yeah." Tony said, hiding his intimidation.

"Enjoy your evenings entertainment." He finished then walked off.

"And then there were two." Astra mumbled and looked down at the box.

"He always like that?" Tony referred to Coulson.

"Eh." She shrugged. "You know I've always suspected that he would be one to watch Supernanny." She chuckled.

"You wanna help me with this?" He pointed to the box.

"Even if you you didn't want my help, it wouldn't matter." The female stated, then picked up the case with ease and carried it down to the lab.

Setting the case down, Tony then opened the box. Astra's eyes widen at the objects in the box. "Is that the original arc reactor blueprints?" She awed, examining it and then setting it aside. They continued to look through the case and Tony grabbed some tapes. "Haven't seen one of those in a while."
