✵Cassandra
I flutter my eyes open. I see Fury sitting in the chair. I sit up and my tears started to flow. "I am sorry Fury! I am so sorry! I know I should have trust him! I am so sorry!" I cry.
Fury gets up and embraces me. "It is not your fault Cassandra," he comfort me but I shout, "It is my fault! I shouldn't trust him!" He shushes and say, "It is alright Cassandra. It's alright." I hug him tightly.
After I cool down, I ask, "Did he get away?" "He actual came back," Fury replies and I furry my brows. "He came back? But why?" I question. "He jump from the spaceship and immediately run to you. He was screaming your name before I tased him," Fury explains. He came back for me? Why did he? "He is now contained in a prison cell. Carol is coming in a few minutes. We will discuss on what to do with him," Fury says.
The door suddenly opens. "Cassandra!" Carol gasps as run to me. "Are you alright?" she asks and I reply, "I am fine." "What exactly happened?" she demands an answer.
"I trust him because he sacrifice his life for me in a mission," I begin the story. "In reward, I gave him a beeper. He said he wanted to call his father, so I give him." I look in Carol's eyes and squeak, "I trusted him." Carol hugs me and rubs my back. "It's okay. It's not your fault."
She lets go and asks, "Where is he?" "He is at a prison cell," Fury replies. "I suggest I bring him with me," Carol says. "No," I interrupt, "I started it. I will finish it." "Cassandra no," Fury protest. "I have to do it," I state. Fury goes to me with, shockingly, tears in his eyes. "I can't lose you Cassy. I can lose you again." I hold his hand and squeeze it. "Trust me Fury. I won't let you down this time," I say with determination.
"Cassandra you're are like a daughter to me," Fury tells me. I stiffen at shock. He likes me as his daughter. "Fury you are like a father to me," I admit to him. "Don't call me Fury... Call me Nick," he says which take me by shock.
Fury doesn't like to be called Nick. He only wants to be called Fury, only Fury. The only one who is close to him calls him Nick.
"I will Fury," I say as tears stream down my face. He give me a look, then I realized I called him Fury. "Sorry Nick," I apologise. He hugs me again.
Suddenly, I feel another pair of arms. I open my eyes and see Carol joining the hug. "You guys are like a sweet family. I want to join," she says which make me laugh.
"Can I call you Nick too?" she asks and Fury sighs, "Fine." Carol hug him again. "Thank you Nick." I laugh at the sight of them.
"Now, we have to discuss about Yon-Rogg," Carol goes back to the business. "Right," I remember, "I will still try to change him." "Fine. I will allow you Cassy. But be careful," Fury allows me.
"I always am."

"Agent Knights," I state my name to the guard. "Come in," the guard instructs me and I did so. He shows me the way to the cell.
"Yon-Rogg," I say his name in a firm tone. "Cass? Cass!" Yon stands up and goes to near me. "How-How are you?" he says nervously. I decided to ignore the question.
"Why'd you go back?" I go straight to my point. "I was worried about you. You got shot," he says. I look into his yellow eyes. My heart skips a beat, but I ignore it. I see nothing but the truth.
"You care about me?" I scoff. He narrow his eyes. "You used me Yon-Rogg. And now you care? How touching," I say in a sarcastic tone.
"Cassandra, I am sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just wanted to go home. I want to end the Kree and Skrull war," he shares with me.
"Can't you see the truth!" I exclaim. "The Skrulls just wanted a home. They don't want war!" I state what Carol has told me about it.
"They started it," he points out and I answer, "The started it, but it ended a thousand years ago. Now they just want a home to stay in."
"They also gotten into your head," he mumbles under his breath. "No one has gotten into my head Yon-Rogg. I know the truth. I just want you to see it!" I furiously say.
"I want you to see the truth Yon," I beg. "Carol wants you to change. I want you to change. Because that is my mission," I state.
"Did you care about me?" he asks and I stiffen. Tears start to stream down my face. "I did," I admit. "But now I don't. I just want to clear my mission. You are nothing to me now."
"Cassandra, I am sorry," he falls down my knees. "I beg you to forgive me. I didn't mean to hurt you. Please forgive me. Trust me, I won't hurt you again."
"Trust you? You broke your promise to me that no one can hurt me," I start to cry. "You where the one who actual hurt me. You were suppose to prevent it. Now I can never trust you again." I begin to walk away.
"I can't believe I trusted you..."
