Y/N's POV:

I turned the cloaking on for the quinjet just in case Scorpion had another air craft to try and take us down, but it didn't seem likely.

Director Fury sat in one of the seats in the body of the quinjet while Iron Fist joined me in the cockpit, taking off his mask, "I'm surprised Scorpion didn't show up, himself".

"Really?", I asked, "From what we have on him, he's egotistical but doesn't like doing these jobs himself anymore, he prefers sending out his inexperienced brotherhood to do all the actual work. Plus, I'm pretty sure he's breached the helicarrier himself".

"I thought you said he doesn't like doing the dirty work", he grinned.

I rolled my eyes, "For kidnappings, sure, but taking over a highly advanced aircraft from a powerful and secretive organisation, who wouldn't want that little ego boost?"

He smiled at me and I rolled my eyes, unable to stop myself from smiling back.

Flicking a switch, I put the quinjet on autopilot back to the base before leaving the cockpit and talking to Director Fury.

"Has Agent Coulson filled you in on the details of Scorpion's brotherhood?", I asked him.

He nodded, sighing, "Scorpion's goal was to take over a helicarrier for himself, he could do a lot with that firepower. He wanted to kidnap me for intel and clearance codes, which makes unearthing bigger problems a difficult task.

"Something bigger than a super villain with a brotherhood of ninja taking over a helicarrier for some elaborate plan?", I asked, curiously,

He nodded.

"I assume it's classified", I sighed, stretching before grabbing a bottle of water.

"It is, but I'll tell you this", he said, "I'm sure you've assumed there's a mole in SHIELD and that's how Scorpion breached the helicarrier. What I can say, is don't trust just any agent of SHIELD that's Level 5 or under".

"Is now a bad time to mention I'm Level 5?", I asked.

He looked at me in slight surprise, "Coulson said he was sending some of his best agents to haul my ass out of Sokovia and considering you're working with the Iron Fist, I assumed you'd be at least a Level 6!"

"I'm technically, officially working for Iron Fist", I said, scratching the back of my neck awkwardly.

"Well, Coulson trusts you and I trust him, I'll look into getting you Level 6 clearance, but make sure you only tell less experienced agents things what they need to know for missions, nothing extra or we could end up with more leaks and sabotages", Director Fury told me.

"Thank you, Director Fury", I said, trying to hide my grin, offering him a bottle of water before rejoining Danny in the cockpit.

I dropped down onto my seat, "That was an.. interesting conversation", I said.

Danny looked at me, his emerald eyes looking at me curiously.

"Fury said he'd look into me getting Level 6 clearance and that we shouldn't trust any SHIELD agents Level 5 or under".

"Oh", he grinned, before playfully adding, "Does that mean I shouldn't trust you just yet? You were Level 5 a few seconds ago".

I laughed, rolling my eyes.

"You have a nice laugh", Danny said, smiling at me.

"Uh, thanks", I replied, blushing intensely. I'm a SHIELD agent talented in multiple things, including espionage, why am I so embarrassed around him?

"And congrats on getting to Level 6", he continued to smile, putting his hand on my shoulder.

Trying to regain control of myself and the situation, I joked around, saying, "In a couple months, I may just be ordering you around".

He laughed, his hand still lingering on my shoulder, "Sorry", he blushed lightly, realising I had definitely noticed his hand still on me.

"Hey, Danny?", I started, his piercing eyes staring down into mine.

"Yes?", he responded.

"What's K'un Lun like?"

"It's... beautiful", Danny replied, "A monastery in the mountains, masked with mist to prevent anyone entering if they shouldn't be there. It's- I'm not sure I can fully describe it to you, maybe I could take you there one day".

"That'd be amazing", I smiled at him, it was nice talking with someone so... genuine.

"I'd like to show it to you", Danny said.

"How are you two holding up?", Director Fury asked us, walking in the cock pit.

We looked at each other, "We're doing alright, and you?", Danny responded.

"I'm damn fine", Fury replied, "We'll need to reroute so we can get to the breached helicarrier, SHIELD could use your help taking it back under control".

"Alright, I'll reroute now", I said, changing the destination.

He looked at Iron Fist, realising he had his mask off while we were talking, "I guess you're quick to trust, you two seem to have been a great match so far".

I smiled and looked over as Danny blushed lightly.

The travel to the breached helicarrier was a lot shorter than to the helicarrier Danny and I came from, so the flight was only four hours long.

"We're entering the hangar now", I reported as we docked.

I looked around, ready to have to fight Scorpion off and take back the helicarrier.

Danny put his mask back on while Fury and I prepared our weapons. I think I'm going to have to bring up making my own personalised weapon for SHIELD operations, it'd be heaps better than the stun batons, which aren't all that helpful.

The quinjet opened and the three of us walked out, ready to join the fight.
