"Hey, Nick, wake up."
Opening her eyes and sitting up, the girl spoke through a yawn. "Natalie?"
"Come on, let's go." Natalie pulled the girl to sit up, as Nick saw that it was still dark out, she guessed she had been passed out on the couch for maybe two or three hours. The girl got to her feet, still in her uniform, but it looked disgruntled as her hair was a mess and one of her socks was to her knee while the other was stopped at her boots.
Nick grabbed her backpack and followed Natalie passed all the destruction, rubbing her eyes and yawning again as they headed outside. "Nat, just know that if this is a kidnapping, I'll beat your ass." When the red head gave her a look, Nick then shrugged. "Or I'd thank you, don't know yet."
Natalie shook her head a bit amused, getting into the passenger seat of a vehicle Nick didn't recognize, as the girl got into the back, closing the door and bucking before looking up at the skinned man in the driver's seat that had an eyepatch covering one eye. "Nice eyepatch. And who are you?"
"Director Fury." He responded with a glance towards Natasha, who then added. "We're gonna get Tony, Nick."
Nick groaned, leaning her head back and closing her eyes. "Ugh, do we have to? He's tiring and I'm already... tired."
Natasha held back a grin before turning in her seat to hand Nick a pair of black sunglasses, "Here. The sun's gonna be up soon."
Nick takes the glasses and puts them on before bringing up her legs onto the seat and leaning her head against the window, closing her eyes.
Maybe three to four hours later, Fury was waking the girl up as Natasha went to go change and check the perimeter of the place. "Come on, little girl."
"My name isn't 'little girl', one eye." Nick grumbled as she got out of the vehicle but as they walked towards the building and Nick pushed the dark sunglasses up her nose, she suddenly saw him. "Oh, you've gotta be kidding."
After Fury saw what she was talking about, the two made their way over to look up at where Tony was in a giant donut with a box of donuts that he was eating, still in his Iron Man suit except for the helmet.
"Sir!" Fury calls up to him, "I'm gonna have to ask you to exit the donut!"
Tony looks down, lifting up his sunglasses, but then Nick spoke up while shaking her head and placing her hands on her hips with attitude. "No, what he meant is, get your hungover ass the hell down here before I go up and get you, maldito idiota." [freaking idiot]
Fury looked at the kid with a raised eyebrow, before looking up at Tony. "I'd listen to little Nick if I were you. She's had total of three hours of sleep."

A bit later and the three of them were inside the little donut shop, Fury sitting at a booth across from Tony, and the little girl sitting on the outside of the bench Fury was in because she refused to sit next to Tony, while she still had the sunglasses on.
