"So how does my power work?" I asked. I was in a gray-walled room with a window made of one-way glass. I was alone, but the rest of the Avengers were watching on the other side of the glass.
"I have no idea," Stark sounded over the intercom.
"What?! How am I supposed to know what to do?!" I yelled, starring down at the dead rabbit on the table. Looking at it made my stomach churn.
"Feel it," He said sarcastically over the speaker. I rolled my eyes and placed my hand gently over the rabbit. I closed my eyes and wished really hard. Nothing happened. I opened my eyes and sighed deeply.
"This is ridiculous! What am I supposed to do?! Click my heels three times and say 'There's no place like life'?" I yelled.
"Look just, try, okay?" He said. I sighed. I placed my hand back on it. I stayed quiet for a long time with my eyes closed. Suddenly I felt something. Something like an emotion in the darkness of my eyelids. Fear. Fear of death. It was the rabbit's... The rabbit was afraid before it died. I suddenly had the urge to yank on that feeling. Yank it back to reality. And that's just what I did. I amplified the feeling until it made the rabbit's heart beat. It jumped to life and my eyes shot open. I stumbled backwards as the now alive and well rabbit scrambled to the corner of the room. I yelped in joy. Stark came on the speaker immediately.
"WAY TO GO, KID!" He shouted. I smiled, but soon my eyelids felt heavy and fatigue took over my body. I leaned against the wall panting, my eyes closed. "And there's the sugar crash."
In an instant they were in the room. Widow and Hawkeye supported me to help me stand, while Bruce coached the rabbit into his arms with Cap's help. Thor was still with Loki somewhere on the ship. Stark stood in front of me with Fury next to him.
"I told you so," Stark said simply. I nodded weakly.
"Agent Romanoff, please take her to her room so she can rest," Fury said. She nodded and helped me back to the bright room I woke up in.

After she left I starred up at the ceiling. What the hell did I just do? I just played God, that's what. I don't want this to be my life. The dead should stay dead. But then think of all the people that could be saved. Children. Woman. Men. But there would be an unbalance, right? A life for a life or something? Maybe I'm reading to much into this. Maybe I'm just a miracle. Why have I never knew about this before? Everything's all twisted. I felt that poor animal's fear. It made me feel strange.
As I thought, I curled up into a fetal position on my bed. Realizing there was no way I could rest now and that my body was close enough to fine now, I stood and wandered. It was dark out by now and everyone was asleep. I found myself in some sort of living room. Loki was sitting there, still in binds, letting his head rest against the couch.
"Hi," I said, sitting down at the end of the three seated couch. He sat up and looked at me.
"Thor told me of what you did. Quite impressive, I must say," He said, smirking like this amused him.
"Thanks. Where is Thor? I mean, isn't he supposed to be watching you?" I asked. He rolled his eyes at the mention of his brother's name.
"He is believed to have 'snuck out'," He said, obviously irritated.
"Snuck out? What for?"
"For his 'beloved', Jane," He sounded uninterested.
"Thor has a beloved?!" I whispered as if I was gossiping.
"Why does that surprise you? Perhaps you had your gaze on him," He inquired.
"What? No! I'm just surprised that someone could handle his... Boldness," I said, raising my eyebrows. That earned a small chuckle from Loki.
"Quite, I must give Jane respect for that, at least," He said leaning his head back again and smiling at me. Butterflies bloomed in my stomach. 'Sh*t...' I thought automatically. I ignored the feeling and continued talking to him.
"Then again, I guess you have the same skill."
"I could never handle my brother's idiotic volume, I just got quite good at tuning it out," He explained. "My fear is that one day I am forced to listen to it," He joked.
"My greatest fear is atomic bombs," I said naturally.
"Atomic bombs?" He asked, surprisingly curious.
"Well not just atomic bombs, any bomb that creates a mushroom cloud," I said looking forward. "Kind of weird I know, but more rational than a fear of ghosts... Which I slightly have as well."
"You are very forward about your weaknesses," He said, smirking.
"I guess. I just don't see the point in hiding things like that. Your enemies are bound to find them out eventually anyway, so might as well tell your friends and the people close to you. There's no way to know who is actually your enemy, so I see no point in stooping to their level and being dishonest." He starred at me for a few moments.
"Your morals are quite extraordinary," He said finally. Butterflies. 'Sh*t.'
"Yeah well, I wish they were as clear to me as they are to you," I sighed leaning back.
That's when Thor came stomping back in. He saw me next to Loki, obviously unguarded, and gave me a questioning look. I stood, feeling slightly guilty, but not knowing why.
"I'm just going to go sleep, now," I said, looking in between them then walking back to my room.

A/N: OMIGOD GOT SOME LOKI STARTER ACTION GOIN ON! WHAT WHAT! About the whole "fear of atomic bombs" thing. I know that's probably not your guys' fear, but it's mine so I just kinda put it in :/ you can change it in your imagination if you like :P. In the next chapter I may or may not censor cuss words. I probably will just so everyone can enjoy my story, but just be prepared to possibly skip a chapter in the future because it had sexual content if you have a soft stomach when it comes to that sort of thing. PEACE.
