Nala was wheeled away by Wanda into her closet, after many hours of convincing Nala that she need some help to shower and change, Nala gave in. After Nala put on a blue sweater with some black sweatpants. Then they made their way to the living room where Captain wanted everyone.

As Nala was pushed into the room her eyes locked onto the man she hated seeing. Throwing her head back and making a loud groan she was wheeled by Sam and Bruce. The man gave her a death glare which was quickly four off by some protective growls.

Ross backed downed and crossed his arms, "You broke protocol miss Herandez."

"Protocol? What level of shit are you on? I didn't break anything, I didn't agree to your fucking terms. And you don't own me. So if I want to leave the fucking tower, I will leave the fucking tower. Don't think because you wave around a little badge that I will simply give up my life to comply for yours." Ross simply looked at her and gave an unreadable expression.

"Your lucky I am not throwing you into a cell right now. If it weren't for your mates."

"What the fuck do you want?!?!" Nala snapped at the man. She was absolutely done with his bullshit.

"Well, since you were in a coma for two weeks the deal on your living conditions have been on hold. Now it is time to give your final word before you are either thrown in a cell, an Avenger, or simply living in protection. Choose." Honestly, if murder wasn't illegal, this guy would be first on Nala's hit list. Nala gave the man an unreadable expression. The others allowed her to think, Natasha had already called the girls, Pepper is finishing up some work in the office before she comes down.

"I'll stay here. Not as an Avenger." Ross simply beamed up at the idea and clasped his hands together, standing up and motioning for the guards to follow him.

"I know I always get what I want. Now, I'll check on you guys in a couple of months. Have a good day." He gave Nala a cheeky grin, she barley even made his presence known, she simply looked ahead of her with this emotionless face. Ignoring the broken girl he turned to walk away. But before the elevators closed he called out, "Oh and Tony," Tony glared daggers at the man. "Be sure to make her a file." And the doors closed shut.

Wanda and Natasha were waiting for Pepper to come down before they left. They could see why the boys were so concerned for her. She looked so gone, so broken. They both felt a very strong pull towards her. It wasn't romantic or anything, it was more of a protective family bond. Even Maria felt the same for the younger girl. Maria was sitting on the end of the couch next to Clint and T'challa.

The sound of the elevators opening caught everyone's attention but Nala's, they all see Pepper step out of the elevators, she gave them a all warm smile. They men all tried their hardest to give the smile back, but their worry for their mate was so much they couldn't at the moment. They were also exhausted from the endless nights and days, they had no sleep for weeks. They lived off coffee and sugar, trying to stay awake for when their girl got out of her coma.

The girls knew that they wanted to talk to Nala privately, so after the nod from Vision they all stood up and left. After the elevator doors closed, everyone looked at the female who sat in the chair. She was staring at the distance not paying anyone any attention.

"Nala?" Steve asked wearily. She didn't respond.

"Nala?" Bruce lightly shook her shoulder. Nala moved her eyes to Steve acknowledging that she heard him. Steve gave a concerning look.

"Are you okay?"

"Why wouldn't I be?" She looks back to the distance.

"Nala, we need to talk about what happened in the-"

"NOTHING HAPPENED!" Purple mist hits the air around them, the lights go out, Sam and Bruce both jump out of the way to avoid the purple mist. The othgers grab onto one another pull them down, trying to avoid the glass that has fallen from the ceiling, along with trying to avoid the mist. Nala unclenches her fist and leans back into the chair, tears fall out of her eyes. She didn't want to hurt them.

The others stayed down for a good minute before hesitantly getting up. Nala's head was leaned back and tears were falling out of her eyes, soft little cries were coming from her, she was trying to not cry in front of them so little strangled cries came instead.

The Avengers all got up and and looked at her, noticing that they were up she tilted her head down, shoulders shaking, and took a deep breathe. "Can you please let me go to sleep." No one moved or spoke, analysing their mate. "Please." She whimpered out. Her hair was shielding her face but they could hear the pain in her eyes.

Nala wanted to tell them, she wanted to so bad. She wanted help but she isn't strong enough. She's afraid of the rejection that will follow after she tells them everything. Or like how Kadance said, 'you're overreacting' or 'it wasn't a big deal.'

The only reason why she is still with Kadance is because she has no one else. Of courses she meets lots of people from parties and shit but half the time she either can't remember them the next morning, they only want sex, or they only hanged out with her for the drugs. Not because they cared, they were all a bunch of drug addicts who wanted someone to pay for everything whole they live the life.

All through out life she has been used and abused. It's a never ending cycle of hurt and disappointment. She can't seam to catch a break. And mentally it was tiring her out. She just wanted to end it, end all of her problems. But she created more instead, broken body parts, and very questionable soulmates.

Taking a shaky deep breath Nala speaks up, "I'm sorry Nick, none of this was your fault." She lifts her head up to look him in the eyes. "It was mine." Nick shakes his head repeatedly and fast.

"Nala no, it want your fault. There's no way you would have known the car was coming-"

"I saw the car lights from a mile away." The room was silent, everyone allowed their two mates to talk without interrupting them.

"I had two choices." She says in a montone voice while looking the director in the eyes. "Life or death."

"Nala, what are you saying?" It's was quite for a moment. Some were piecing it together. Some were still confused.

"I'm saying I ran out in front of the car on purpose."

"I wanted to die."
