the fight doesn't go on for long. the captain comes down and breaks it up. they recapture me and Loki and quickly deposit us with SHIELD. they walk us down a hallway, a half dozen guards each. my father looks into the lab where the monster waits, smirking. I just continue to stare ahead. suddenly, I get pulled to the right. they turn me down a hallway, and keep my father going straight. they obviously deem him the bigger threat. the guards force me into a room with what looks to be a mirror on the other side, but its obviously a one way window. there is a chair and a table in the room. the guards push me into the chair, and place multiple metal cuffs around my body. not a moment after they left, Thor comes in. I smirk at him.

"Miss me uncle." I say.

"Natt why are you doing this." he asks, his face full of sorrow.

"I have nothing to lose, everything to gain." I answer. a lie, but it will do.

"Natt your father as poisoned your mind, please, cant you see the folly of your actions."

"what folly, the humans are beneath us. the loss of several of their lives is not a big price."

"my little night star, do you not hear what you are saying." My uncle pleads. "this isn't you!"

"That was before I had my mind broadened.  before my eyes were opened to the universe. things are much bigger, then just you or I, uncle. no this is me, the real me." my uncle listens to this before he walks out of the room. I decide to use my magic to see how my father is doing.

I am in a large room, a giant container in the middle, which my father is walking around in.  agent fury walks around to a control consol.

"in case it's unclear," he says. "if you try to escape, if you so much as scratch that glass" he opens a hatch underneath the cage. my father walks over and looks down. "it's 30,000 feet straight down in a steel trap. you get how that works?" the director yells. He then closes the hatch. "Ant" he says motioning to Loki, "Boot." he says pointing to the consol. my father just chuckles.

"it's an impressive cage."  my father says, walking around a little bit. "not built, I think, for me."

"built for something a lot stronger than you."

"oh I've heard." Loki says, his voice low. he then looks over at the camera. "a Mindless beast makes play he's still a man. how desperate are you, that you call on such lost creatures to defend you?"

"How desperate am I?" the director restates the question. "you threaten my world with war, you steal a force you can't hope to control. you talk about peace, and you kill because it's fun. you have made me very desperate. and you might not be glad that you did."

"ooh. it burns you to have come so close. to have the tesseract, to have power. unlimited power, and for what?" my father says. he smiles at chuckles a bit. "a warm light for all mankind to share. and then to be reminded what real power is." the director then turns.

"well let me know if 'real power' wants a magazine or something." he says before walking away."

I break out of my magic just in time, for fury to come into my room. I smile at him.

"now i'm going to assume, you have some sort of  relation to Loki." he says.

"wow, you didn't know Thor was an uncle." I say. he nods like he was expecting that.

"now, I think you are the more sane of the two of you, so i'm going to ask once. where is the tesseract."

"why would you assume I'm the sane one." I ask.

"you haven't said a word until now, you work in the background. and females in general tend to be more realistic." he says, walking around behind me. "so I'm going to give you a chance to save you and your fathers skins. you tell me where the cube is, I let you go with Thor, where I'm sure that you'll receive better treatment." I laugh out loud.

"I don't know." I say. he looks at me somewhat confused. "I don't know where the cube is."

"your father didn't share that info with you" I laugh again.

"you think he knows where it is either. he sent it off with Selvig and Barton to who knows where." I can see he is not liking me a lot right now, but he decides to leave me alone. he leaves the room quickly to go and talk to his team of freaks.  I start working my magic. lets start the fighting. my magic snakes through the ship. I decide to go and see what my father is doing.

I find him pacing around. he then stops and turns around.

"There's not many people who can sneak up on me." he says to the assassin.

"but you figured I'd come." she retorts.

"after." he says. walking towards her. "after whatever tortures Fury can concoct, you would appear as a friend, as a balm. and I would cooperate.

"I want to know what you've done to agent Barton."

"I would say I've expanded his mind." my father says. there is silence for a few moments.

"and once you've won, once your king of the mountain" she says, walking forward to the glass cage.  "what happens to his mind?"

"oh, is this love agent Romanoff."

"Love is for children. I owe him a debt" my father walks backwards and  sits down on the bench.

"tell me."

"Before I worked for SHIELD I, uh, well I made a name for myself." she says, sitting down in a chair. " I have a very specific skill set. I didn't care who I used it for, or on. I got on SHIELD's radar in a bad way. Agent Barton was sent to kill me. He made a different call."

"and what will you do if I vow to spare him?" my father asks.

"not let you out."

"no, but I like this. your world in the balance, and you bargain for one man."

"regimes fall every day. I tend not to weep over that. I'm Russian. I was."

"and what are you now?"

"it's really not that complicated. I got red in my ledger, I'd like to wipe it out." Romanoff says, standing up.

"can you. can you wipe out that much red. Dreykov's daughter, Sao Paulo, the hospital fire?  Barton told me everything. your ledger is dripping. it's gushing red, and you think saving a man no more virtues then yourself will change anything?" my father is yelling by the end. I watch as the Russians face gets tighter and tighter. "This is the basest sentimentality. this is a child at prayer. Pathetic!  you lie and kill in the service of liars and killers. you pretend to be separate, to have your own code. something that makes up for the horrors but they're part of you, and they will never go away." my father says. he bangs his hand on the glass hard. "I wont touch Barton, Not until I make him kill you. slowly, intimately, in every way he knows you fear. and then he'll wake just long enough to see his good work, and when he screams, I'll split his skull. this is my bargain, you mewling quim" my father growls  out. the Russian turns around and fake cry's.

"you're a monster." she says. my father chuckles.

"oh, no. you brought the monster." my father says. I quickly recoil, he just leaked, hopefully by now though, it will be to late.

"so banner, that's your play."

"what?" my father says confused.

"Loki means to unleash the hulk. keep banner in the lab, I'm on my way." the assassin says into her earpiece as she walks away.

but I have secured my magic, there is no stopping what is coming.
