Before I can even have a moment to myself the two avengers join me in the corridor. Bucky slams the door shut before giving me a concerned look. In fact they both do.

"Sorry. I didn't mean for him to get to me." I apologise not meeting their gaze.

"Brook it's fine, it happens to the best of us." Steve reassures with a smile.

We went silent for a time not really sure what else to say until a breeze past over us. I jumped not expecting it whereas the other two weren't phased by the breeze. The breeze stops and Pietro appears beside me with wind swept hair.

"Are you alright? Did he hurt you?" The speedster questions quickly.

"I'm fine Pietro just wasn't expecting him to do that." I reassure.

"What did he say? We could hear him but then he moved in front of you making the feed go silent?" Pietro asks making Steve and Bucky look at me. I sigh remembering what he said to me.

"He's planning something. I don't know what but he's definitely got a plan on how to escape." I warn.

"Did he say anything else about how he plans on escaping?" Bucky asked.

"He... he said his time will come when he gets out of that cell." I pause pointing to the detention room door. "And there will be nothing you lot can do because you'll... you'll be fighting me." I explain becoming worried.

The three of them held the same expression as me but tried not to show it. However if Thompson uses me like I have a feeling he will I know for a fact that Bucky is the only person who knows and can stop me. So that's a positive I guess.

Before any of them could say anything I spoke. "I need to see dad." I comment before running off without warning.

Steve and Bucky call for me to wait as they run after me. But next thing I know someone picks me up and in a heartbeat I was in front of dad and the rest of the Avengers.

"What the?" I mutter confused and kinda dizzy. Holding my head I look around to see Pietro grinning at me.

"I hate you." I playfully glare at him making him laugh.

"Seriously you didn't see that coming?" He remarks. I laugh and playfully punch his arm.

Moments later Steve and Bucky run in out of breath. They look at us as we shrug back.

"Brook what happened down there? Why did you loose control?" Dad asks concerned but the way he worded it made it sound it's my fault. I had all intention of telling dad about hearing mom's voice but when he said those words it just pissed me off.

"Hey! I didn't loose control, I nearly did there's a difference." I sassed back feeling personally attack. I noticed Sam and Clint trying their hardest not to laugh. Pietro just stood by me as if he understands what I'm feeling.

"She does have a point there, Tony." Sam comments earning a glare from the billionaire but waves it off.

"Brook you should of been more careful! What were you thinking, you could of-" Dad scolds angrily but before he could finish I stepped in.

"I could of what? Hurt you guys? Dont you think I know that? Ever since Hydra gave me these powers I've lived in fear of what I can do with them so dont you dare tell me to be more careful because that's all I am doing. That's why I left the room before my powers had the chance of doing anything else!" I shouted at him. All of them were taken back by my sudden outburst.

Giving him a hurtful glare I shook my head before storming off. I heard dad sigh but I didn't stop I just continued to where ever my feet are taking me.

"What else happened down there?" Loki asked mentally knowing I'm holding something back.

"I heard mom's voice." I sigh leaving the room.

I know for a fact Loki will follow me to which ever room I end up in as will Pietro.

By the time I knew it I was standing in the middle of the library. Laughing to myself I grabbed a random book off one of the shelves and sat down where I did yesterday.

I was alone for five minutes before as predicted two people came in.

"What do you mean you heard your mother's voice." He asked slightly confused.

Loki took the seat opposite me as Pietro sat beside me reading the page I'm on over my shoulder.

"I mean before I was about to do something I'd regret with my powers I heard her voice in the back of my head. To start off with I genuinely thought it was you because your voices sound similar but the way she said it made me realise it was mom." I explain.

"I thought Hydra, you know?" Pietro asks not wanting to finish the sentence.

"They did." I answer sadly.

"I think I know why you were able to hear her voice." He pauses gaining our attention. "I believe that when you lost control-" He stopped seeing the glare I was giving him. "Fine. When you nearly lost control. Better?" He questions sarcastically to which I nod. Loki on the other hand just rolls his eyes before continuing.

"...you're powers unlocked a memory from before Luna was taken and before Hydra took you which is why your heard her voice. Think of it like a fail safe for when you yourself cannot calm down." He finishes. I didn't know what else to say so I just sat there.
