Tony's POV

"That's the guy my dad never shut up about? Wondering if they shouldn't have kept him on ice." I said. "Someone has daddy issues" Tyra said. I ignored her.

"The guy's not wrong about Loki. He does have the jump on us." Bruce commented. Tyra sat on the desk he was working on, trying to understand what he was doing.

"What he's got is an ACME dynamite kit. It's gonna blow up in his face, and I'm gonna be there when it does." I said. Tyra suddenly looked up at me and growled. "And I'll break your nose for it " she replied.

"And I'll read all about it." Bruce muttered continuing to work.

"Uh-huh. Or you'll be suiting up like the rest of us." I commented.

"Ah, see. I don't get a suit of armor. I'm exposed, like a nerve. It's a nightmare." Bruce said. Tyra rubbed his back.

"You know, I've got a cluster of shrapnel, trying every second to crawl its way into my heart." I said pointing at the mini arc reactor in my chest. "This stops it. This little circle of light. It's part of me now, not just armour. It's a... terrible privilege." I said.

"And I don't even know what I am Bruce. There must be something wrong with me because everyone on this ship except for you two, my brothers, Natasha and Steve look at me like a freak.." Tyra commented. Holding her own hands as they shook slightly.

"But you can control it." Bruce told me. "Because I learned how." I replied. "It's different.." Bruce replied as he tried to read the computer screen. I slide the data aside with my finger so we can see face-to-face.

"Hey, I've read all about your accident. That much gamma exposure should have killed you." I told him. "Tony shut u-" Tyra tries to say but Bruce raised his hand signalling for her to stop.

"So you're saying that the Hulk... the other guy... saved my life?" Bruce asked. I nodded.

"That's nice. It's a nice sentiment. Saved it for what?" Bruce asked. Tyra got off his desk and left the room.

"I guess we'll find out." I replied. As we get back to work at our respective computers.

"You might not like that." Bruce replied. I smirked. "You just might." I said.

No ones' POV

As night sets in and darkens the inside of the ship Steve, with all his might, slides the heavy iron door of the storage open and stealthily walks in. Secure storage 10-C is written above the door. It was a large warehouse, filled with metal crates stacked.

Steve looks up, seeing another level. He leaps up high and holds onto the catwalk railing. He continues to move forward.

Meanwhile in the main room of the ship, a shield monitor displays a photo and record of Jane Foster. Thor looks at her, remembering, as his younger sister enters the room. Agent Coulson stands beside him.

"As soon as Loki took the doctor we moved Jane Foster. We've got an excellent observatory in Traunsee. She was asked to consult there very suddenly yesterday. Handsome fee, private plane, very remote. She'll be safe." He said.

"Thank you. It's no accident Loki taking Erik Selvig. I dread what he plans for him once he's done. Erik is a good man." Thor replied. Tyra walked over to the monitor and read the information.

"He talks about you a lot. You changed his life. You changed everything around here. Your the reason we found her" Phil replied ruffling tyra's hair. She growled and pulled her hood up.

"They were better as they were. We pretend on Asgard that we're more advanced, but we...we come here battling like bilchsteim." Thor said. Tyra couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Like what?" Phil asked. Bilchsteim? You know; huge, scaly, big antlers. You don't have those?" Thor asked.

"That sounds like some sort of ungodly hybrid of a rabbit and a stag" Tyra commented.

"Don't think so." Phil replied.

"They are repulsive, and they trample everything in their path." Thor said as he walks over to the side of the ship and looks out the
window, lamenting about what has happened and what may come.

"Oh dear god he's acting like Tony..." Tyra said.

"When I first came to earth, Loki's rage followed me here and your people paid the price. And now again. In my youth I courted war." Thor commented. Tyra snickered slightly.

"Thor and war sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G~!" She sung happily yet low enough for only Phil to hear.

"War hasn't started yet" nick commented as he entered the room. "You think you can make Loki tell us what the Tesseract is?" He asked Thor. "I can" Tyra said, but fury glared at her, basically saying no.

"I do not know. Loki's mind is far afield, it's not just power he craves, it's vengeance upon me. There's no pain that would prize his need from him." Thor said.

"Shut up Shakespeare.." Tyra muttered. "A lot of guys think that, until the pain stops." Fury said. Thor raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"What are you asking me to do?" He asked. "I'm asking. What are you prepared to do?" Fury replied. "Loki is a prisoner"'thor said.

"Then why do I feel like he's the only person on this boat that wants to be here?" Fury asked. "Baldy does have a point" Tyra replied. Thor doesn't answer.

Tyra saw the room with the security camera's were empty. She walked over to it and locked the door behind her. She turned on the screen for where loki was.

Loki walks back and forth inside his glass cell. Suddenly, he stops.

"There's not many people that can sneak up on me." He commented. Tyra moves the camera slightly to see Natasha. "But you figured I'd come." She commented.

"After. After whatever tortures Fury can concoct, you would appear as a friend, as a balm. And I would cooperate." Loki replied, smiling.

"I wanna know what you've done to Agent Barton." She asked. Tyra turned up the volume. "I'd say I've expanded his mind." Loki replied.

A sharp pain suddenly entered tyra's mind.

Flash back

Tyra was strapped down on a surgical table. She pulled on her restraints desperately to escape as various needles were stabbed into her arms.

She screamed in pain as one of the hydra scientists chuckled. "Stop screaming. We're only expanding you mind to our way of thinking" he said

End of flashback

Tyra covered her mouth as she felt like she was going to be sick.

"And once you've won. Once you're king of the mountain. What happens to his mind?" Natasha asked. "Is this love, Agent Romanoff?" Loki asked. "Love is for children. I owe him a debt." Natasha replied.

Loki sat down, seeming to be intrigued by her worlds. "Tell me." He said. Natasha pulled up a chair and sat down. "Before I worked for SHIELD, I uh...well, I made a name for myself. I have a very specific skillset. 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." She replied.

"And what will you do if I vow to spare him?" He asked.

"What?.. but he already swore to me he would spare Clint.." Tyra muttered to herself, continuing to watch.

"Not let you out." Natasha replied. Loki laughed. "Ah, no. But I like this. Your world in the balance, and you bargain for one man?" He asked. "Regimes fall every day. I tend not to weep over that, I'm Russian... or was." Natasha replied.

"What is it you want?" Loki asked. "It's really not that complicated. I've got red in my ledger, I'd like to wipe it out." She replied.

"Can you? Can you wipe out that much red? Drakov's daughter? São Paulo? The Hospital fire? Barton told me everything. Your ledger is dripping, it's gushing red, and you think saving a man no more virtuous than yourself will change anything?" Loki suddenly stood up looking furious. "This is the basest sentimentality. This is a child at prayer... pathetic!" He yelled.

While Loki yells other dilemmas are happened on the ship. Tony and Bruce continuously work at their monitors.

"You lie and kill in the service of liars and killers."

Agent Hill checks every view screen in the bridge. Fury oversees.

"You pretend to be separate, to have your own code, something that makes up for the horrors. But they are a part of you, and they will never go away!"

Steve opens a steel crate. Angry, he looks behind him and looks back into the crate. The crate is filled with an array of hydra weapons and a file with tyra's name on it.

Loki slams his cell, making Natasha and Tyra flinch. Tyra backed away from the screen slightly

"I won't touch Barton. Not until I make him kill you! Slowly. Intimately. In every way he knows you fear! And when 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!" Loki screamed at her. Natasha turns around, walks away from Loki, disgusted.

Tyra sunk into one of the chairs and tears streamed down her cheeks and she felt as if she were about to throw up.

"You're a monster..." she muttered. Loki laughed again. "No, you brought the monster." He said. Suddenly Natasha turned around. She was fine. "So, Banner... that's your play?" Natasha said. Loki was shocked. "What?" He asked.

Natasha pressed the communication button on her earpiece. "Loki means to unleash the Hulk. Keep Banner in the lab, I'm on my way. Send Thor as well." She said. She then turned it off and turned to Loki. "Thank you for your cooperation." She said before quickly walking out, leaving Loki frozen.

Tyra turned off the screen before shaking getting up and going back to Bruce and Tony
