Callies POV
I must have fallen asleep after I rolled back over in my hospital bed. I also conclude that someone has moved me from that bed. Still semi asleep, I keep my eyes closed but listen to what is around me to understand what's going on. It appeared as though I was on a plane because I could hear, with my heightened senses, the blow of the jets and sounds of forceful wind outside. Then I focus on the voices inside."Ummm... Mr.Stark? Is she supposed to be floating like that?" A young male voice asked hesitantly. Must be the spiderling.
" How am I supposed to know, kid? Do I look like an expert on mythical creatures?" Replied the Tin Can from farther away, probably piloting the jet.
"What should we do?"
"I don't know? Secure her down?"
" I could place Mjolnir on her. That would keep her down" said a deeper voice not too far from where I am positioned.
"No Thor. You would crush her and probably wake her." Replied Spangles. "It's better if she remains asleep. That way she can't cause trouble on the way to the tower. That cuff must have really taken a lot out of her. But it seems her powers are recovering since she is floating while asleep."
"I could try webbing her down?" The innocent voice of Peter asked.
"Sure kid. Go for it" replied Tin Can, sounding tired and exasperated.
After that I felt a pressure on my waist that pulled me down to the ground and seemed to have stuck me to it. Concluding that I was moderately safe and still recovering, I succumbed to sleep again.
I'm rudely awaken by a short but sharp zap of electricity that has me shooting off the couch I seemed to have been lying on before. With a quick glance around me it appears we are in the living room of what I assume is Stark tower. The decor is plain but modern. Notably I am surrounded by the entire team of avengers. The widow, of course, was the one who woke me by means of a small dose of one of her widow bites.
" We need to discuss rules if you are to live in the tower with us" begins Captain Spangles. Nonchalantly glancing around I stretch and crack my joints similar to how a cat stretches after a nap I suppose. I'm in no real rush to have this conversation though it seems my nonchalance is really grinding the gears out of a few impatient heroes. Once I'm satisfied I return to the couch where I decide to levitate myself about a foot into the air while sitting cross legged. Then I manifest some tea in a pot and a tea cup before promptly pouring myself some tea.
"Proceed," I state in a posh English accent, as if I'm the queen of England giving them permission to speak. I get a few odd glances for that and a snicker from the spider boy.
Captain Tight Ass rolls his eyes before starting, " It's been decided that you will be staying with me and Bucky on our floor of the tower. You are not allowed to leave this tower. You are to be almost constantly supervised. We will also have Jarvis monitoring to make sure you don't teleport outside of the building. He will watch your energy levels since it takes a larger buildup of energy for you to teleport long distances, he will be watching for that. We request that you respect our privacy and stay out of our rooms. Is there anything that anyone else would like to add?"
As he glances around the room at his fellow teammates, I raise my hand. When he finally acknowledges my raised hand, he rolls his eyes but gestures for me to go ahead.
" So what exactly do you hope to gain from keeping me here, huh? Cause I've got plans elsewhere and bad guys to stop if you don't mind. If you guys aren't gonna do it, someone has to." I state almost smugly as I begin leisurely floating around the group seated and standing in the living area.
"Well the main goal is to find out more about you and to keep you from causing insanity in anymore people." The black widow herself pipes in.
" Ah but how many people are going to suffer if you take me off the streets. Truly ask yourselves what is worse: me saving innocents while causing insanity in a few criminals or you taking me off the streets thus allowing these innocents to suffer and the criminals to go free?" I ask the group, making eye contact with each member. " I'll let you ponder this for awhile. Which floor is the one I'll be staying on?"
" It's the 24th. Yours will be the undecorated room. Be down for dinner around 5. It'll be on this floor." Steve says, effectively breaking the tense silence that followed after my question.
I salute then faze straight through the ceiling counting as I go before I reach the correct floor. It wasn't hard to find my rather plain room. It won't be plain for long, not if I'm to be staying here. I decide to take a nice warm shower before curling up in bed for a good cat nap.Third person POV
A couple floors below Cheshire, the team are still seated in the communal living area." I thought we weren't allowed to faze through walls anymore. Every time I do it I get reprimanded." States Vision, almost as if he is pouting.
Everyone turns to look at him as Wanda rubs his back to make him feel better."That's because the last time you did that you entered Tony's room without announcing yourself and got an eye full of his bare behind as he was getting it on with his lady friend." Clint points out with a slight smirk. This makes those in the room chuckle. Well, everyone except Tony.
"It's not funny! I had to pay for that girls counseling because she thought a red devil had entered the room as a result of her sinning. Wonder how she's doing..." Tony exasperates with a shake of his head.
They don't linger much after that. Everyone going their separate ways. Tony and Bruce going down to the lab to tinker with their projects. Steve and Bucky going to the gym. Pietro closely behind them wanting to run on his special treadmill to get his excess energy out as a result of the long flight home. Wanda heading into the kitchen to find something to cook for dinner. Vision follows to hopefully learn something. Clint and Natasha go back to their shared floor to do whatever two highly trained agents do on their days off. Loki heads to the private library, while Thor leaves to FaceTime with his love Jane. Peter suddenly realizing he is now alone in the living area quickly scrambles up and down to the lab to watch Tony work and tinker with his webbing a bit more.
