The Girl With Six Marks
Brotherhood
Chapter One

It's been two years since the Battle of New York City.

Life with the Avengers proved to have its challenges, however Alyanna wouldn't trade it for the world.

Thor was still gone, and everyday Alyanna spent a few moments sitting on the balcony looking up at the stars, wondering when she would be seeing her demigod. Tony and her had been planning their wedding which was growing near.

Her best friend Annie had moved to New York City, and was the first secretary to Tony. She had been excited at first, but after spending a few months running around for the man, she was spent.

Alyanna was currently lounging on the balcony when Annie walked through the glass sliding door.

"This man has me running all around town! My feet are killing me! I've lost twenty pounds since I've started working here!" She whines, plopping down next to her best friend.

Alyanna looks up from her phone, giving Annie a warm smile. "Why do you think I rejected the position? Tony's demands can be ridiculous. I'm amazed you've stuck with it for so long," she tells her honestly.

Annie huffs, flicking her hair before leaning back against the chair. She gives a long sigh before turning to Alyanna. "So what have you been up too? Where is everyone?"

Alyanna shrugs. "Tony and Bruce are down in the lab. Steve is at the gym. Natasha and Clint are on a mission," she replies.

"I thought you and Nat were partners?" Annie inquires, raising an eyebrow.

Alyanna waves her hand. "They were specially requested. Besides, I'm enjoying some down time."

Annie nods in understanding. She opens her mouth to speak when suddenly an alarm rings on Alyanna's phone. She jumps and looks down, noticing the notification blaring at her.

"Crap, sorry Annie I have to go," she says, standing to her feet.

Her friend waves as she grabs Alyanna's drink. "That's fine, I'll finish this for you."

Alyanna shakes her head before hurrying to the Avenger's conference center. It was where the government or S.H.I.E.L.D contacted them when in need.

She walks through the door and sees Tony, Bruce, and Steve already there. Director Fury was on the big screen.

"Hey I'm here, what's going on?" She says, taking a seat in the front.

"Good Afternoon all, we have a situation that needs to be taken care of."

"What is it?" Steve asks, his eyes holding concern.

"I need Rogers and Jones to report to headquarters by tomorrow morning."

"Woah woah there, you haven't told us what is going on?" Tony says, his arms crossing.

Director Fury looks at him with disinterest. "If you've watched the current news, you would have seen that there has been a series of killings in the past few months."

"A serial killer? Isn't this the FBI's job?" Tony challenges. "Unless this is threatening the world, I don't see how this concerns us."

The Avengers look towards the S.H.I.E.L.D director for answers.

The bald man with the eye patch glared through the holograph. "It has been speculated that these killings are the responsibility of a new terrorist organization. They are targeting high officials and important public figures."
