"Mr. Fury. Would you like some lemonade?", I offered as I entered the kitchen of my palace. I had a very confused looking Bruce Banner by my side.

A bald African American male with an eye patch over his left eye which obviously he was missing was leaning to a corner of my kitchen. He had facial hair around his mouth and was wearing a black ensemble. Fun fact? I knew he would be coming personally. Why? I decided to ghost him. Though it was not only him I was ghosting.

Flashback

"Announcing the arrival of her highness the crown princess, Princess (Y/n) in the dining hall!"

I came down to have dinner with their majesties King (Y/f/n) Acharya and Queen (Y/m/n) of Assam. My parents. I myself was the crown princess of the state and a very pampered girl by my family. I have one more thing special about me. I am a superhero and an elemental. I am called Kaal. Another fact about me: I am the CEO of the biggest company which makes anything with an engine. Airplanes, Cars, Helicopters. A²H is the name of my company. My company is number one on the list of start ups. Stark Industries just one step below me.

"Mother, Father.", I said once and settled into my chair.

"Is Bruce coming anytime soon?", My father inquired. Just then the sound of footsteps was heard echoing and my best friend emerged from the huge double doors. "Ah! Bruce! We were awaiting your arrival. Please take a seat." The scientist came and sat next to me.

"Queen (Y/m/n), King (Y/f/n). Oh (Y/n/n)! Even you have decided to grace is with your presence.", He said bowing his head. My parents chuckled at this.

"Said the scientist who decided to stay in the lab for two whole days.", I replied.

"Okay, that was once!" The other argued.

"But logically it's still counted. You're a man of science, Banner. I thought you would know about numbers...", I replied. The other rotated his head side to side in order to express his inability to win a debate against me.

"(Y/n), a suggestion. When you find someone who can defeat you in a conversation, get down on one knee and propose to them. They are your perfect match...", Banner replied.

"And that's the main reason I am single as a Pringle till now Bruce. I always end up defeating the other person in a debate. I am too perfect for anyone!"

"Never one to shy away from self appreciation, eh your highness?"

"Never in my wildest dreams.", I replied. The both of us chuckled at this.
"So Bruce, how was your time in Kolkata?", Mother questioned.

"Rather satisfactory, my Queen.", He said smiling. "As satisfactory as it can get when you have the ability to turn into a huge green rage monster...", He stated in a low voice. I cringed at his disappointment with himself which he absolutely didn't deserve.

"Bruce, don't pull yourself down so much mate.", I commented. "You're an amazing person and an even amazing doctor, scientist and best friend.", I replied putting a hand on his arm. He gave me a solemn smile.

"Thanks Princess.", He replied.

"You're welcome, peasant." I replied jokingly.

"Jokes aside, she is right Bruce. You are no less than a son to us, always remember that.", My parents said.

"You guys are the best.", The other said. I smiled.

"So, (Y/n), how's things going in A²H?", Mom inquired.

"Ah, you know the usual mom. Now that year ending is approaching the work is just double.", I replied.

"And what about Stark? Still pestering you?", Bruce asked.

"To the limit where I want to use my fire on him. But thank God for my 5 assistants and my assistant managers. They have not let him get to me till date.", I replied.

I was actually developing eco friendly
transport facilities. For example my current project were solar powered cars, airplanes and helicopters so that we don't have a problem even if we run out of petroleum products. Tony Stark wanted to work with me as I was the only one whose company apparently can match up to his intelligence.

"Why don't you do a merger with him? It will be very profitable for your company.", Bruce suggested.

"It will be profitable for my company but what about my self respect, Bruce? Besides, Stark thinks he is the only person who can offer clean energy, doesn't he? I for a fact would like to prove him wrong.", I replied.

"Spoken like a true queen.", My father said proudly. I smiled at him. We continued having dinner talking about different topics when my phone, which was on the dining table next to me rang. I looked at the number and mentally rolled my eyes.

"Who is it, sweetheart?", My mom asked.

"S.H.I.E.L.D.", I replied cutting the piece of fish on my plate.

"He hasn't dropped the offer, has he? Mr. Fury?", My father asked.

"Nope. He keeps calling me and I know if I accept the call, Kaal will become a property of S.H.I.E.L.D and I don't want to have so many things on my plate at the moment.", I replied. Just when I said these words, a guard came inside the dining room.

"Greetings your highnesses and Dr. Banner. The Crown princess's assistant, Ms. Sri would like to have a word with her.", He said bowing low with his right hand on his heart.

"Can't it be delayed?", I asked.

"I'm afraid it can't, your grace.", He replied bowing again.

"Is it concerning the company?", I asked.

"It is concerning the security, your majesty. Actually the presence of Dr. Banner is required too.", I stopped eating and smirked.

Fury did exactly what I had suspected and expected him to do. He came to bargain with me in my own turf. I knew it was him for sure because Sri never disturbed me while I was with my family and moreover the codeword 'the security' was for S.H.I.E.L.D.

I had instructed my soldiers beforehand to be prepared.

"Where exactly?", I questioned.

"In the kitchen, ma'am.", He replied.

"The kitchen? Why would Sri want to meet you on the kitchen, (Y/n)?", My mom asked.

"Aah... You know Sri, don't you mum? She is unpredictable at times. Now I better get going. Bruce, I hope you will be coming." I said.

I walked out of the hall without looking back with Bruce who was pretty confused.

*Flashback End*

"No, your highness. Citric drinks don't suit me well. Nevertheless, I am gracious for your offer.", Fury said bowing as he came out of the corner, he was hiding in.

"Dr. Banner.", He greeted Bruce once he saw him.

"Yeah hi...", The refered doctor replied awkwardly. "(Y/n), what's going on here?", He continued.

"Dr. Banner you see the thing is we need your help, along with her majesty, Princess (Y/n)'s." Thankfully I had nothing in my mouth at that moment because if I did, I would spit it out because of the piece of information. But no, don't even think that I didn't embarrass myself because I most certainly did. I had a mini coughing fit which worried up both Fury and Bruce and making me miss their conversation.

"(Y/n), you okay right?", The brother I never had asked.

"Yup. In the pink of my health Green Bird. Don't worry.", I said using the nickname I had for him.

"You know I can't help myself, Black Bird. I am the only brother figure you've got after all and it's my duty to look out for your well being.", He said using my nickname. He then turned back towards Fury and a hurt look came up in the eyes behind his glasses. "Yeah, so back to why do you want me, a freak, to come aboard this Avengers initiative as you call it..." His tone matches the emotion in his eyes.

"Dr. Banner, let's make one thing very clear, I don't give shit---"

"Uh uh uh... Watch your profanity in my palace please, Mr. Fury. I understand it's your habit but it's also my habit to shoot the people who disturb me while I have my food and as you can see, I have kept my habit under control and I believe so should you. So please. Watch it.", I said in an authoritative voice which even took the director of S.H.I.E.L.D aback. He must have realized it would be vain to argue with me on my own turf so he agreed.

"As you wish your highness. So Dr. Banner, let's make one thing very clear, I don't care about your genetic dysfunction but only if you're useful or not and no one knows Gama radiation like you hence, making you useful for me.", The director said. The words ' Gama radiation ' caught my attention.

"Gama radiation? How's Gama radiation related to the problem we are facing?", I asked.

"You see, (Y/n) the tesseract emits Gama rays and unfortunately or fortunately... Half of me is Gama rays.", My best friend explained in a dejected voice. I walked over to him and put my hand on his shoulder, giving him a smile which said you are not a freak, Bruce.

"Thank you.", The other said and pulled me into a hug. I patted his back and pulled apart.

"Of course.", I replied. Then I got back to my usual self and regained my former expression on my face when I turned to back towards Fury.

"So Director, that explains why you would need the good doctor's assistance but the real question is, why do you need my assistance?", I questioned.

The man smiled and walked across the room towards me. Bruce shot me a look like should I hulk out? but I instructed him against it. Even though I forbade him for doing it, didn't mean that I wasn't ready to defend myself.

Being an elemental had it's perks. For example controlling 2 elements at the same time which I was doing right now. In my right hand I held a fireball while in my left I held water shot.

The older man noticed this and chuckled deeply.

"Don't worry your highness. I have no intentions to harm you. Just to tell you why we would require you aboard."

"Yet why do I feel the need to be safe than sorry in my own turf. Why is that, Director?", I ask with a straight and poker face. Nick Fury took a step back. I allowed myself to smirk an inch. I had the slightest of a doubt that there might be a few S.H.I.E.L.D. agents lurking around my palace, but I just wanted to confirm it.

The director looked down at his hands which he was rubbing and asked, "You know, don't you?"

"I had my suspicions.", I said confidence stirred with victory lacing my voice.

The director chuckled yet again and look at me with a smile. "I should have known what am I getting myself into." I just shrugged.

"Now that you have put all your cards on the table director, tell me, why do you require the assistance of an elemental?", I asked getting to the point.

"You're wrong your highness. I don't require an elemental but I require the elemental." I raised an eyebrow at the male's proclamation.

"Meaning?", I asked.

"You see, Kaal this is an all hands on deck situation. The thing we are dealing with, this Loki of Asgard has stolen..." Nick Fury stopped midway.

"Has stolen?", I asked narrowing my eyes at him. From the side I could see that Bruce too took out his glasses and was looking at the director, expectant of an answer.

"The tesseract.", Fury spit out after gulping. I gasped. I was unable to believe what I just heard. I looked at Bruce for confirmation and he nodded. "And few if our own have been compromised.", He confessed. Right now I was in a turmoil. I needed answers.

"Compromised as in?", I questioned.

"He has managed to telepathically control their thoughts and emotions with the help of his scepter." I have couldn't comprehend if what I heard was true or not. Then I started muttering

"It is impossible to have someone telepathically under control unless..." My head snapped towards the man in front of me. "He has the mind Stone inside his scepter!"

"You are correct (Y/n).", The director confirmed.

"Of course I am correct. As a matter of fact I am very seldom wrong or I very seldom stand corrected but that's not the question right now. The question is, do we have the scepter in S.H.I.E.L.D. in a secure position?", I questioned.

"Well I have had it placed in the protection of agent Hill.", The director said. I sighed and held my my head in my hand rubbing it. I saw Bruce chuckle from the side of my eye. I gave him a look like can you believe these people? He shrugged. I then spoke.

"You are in more need of me than I thought.", I said. Nick Fury gave the slightest of a satisfied smile and Bruce let out a sigh of relief.

"I will pick you up in my quin jet tomorrow morning then."

"No you won't.", I declared. Both, my best friend and the African American male in my presence looked confounded. I looked down and smirked. "Director you won't be sending your quin jet here..." I paused to lift my head up. Then I continued my statement. "I will be taking my own quin jet." Fury was at a kiss for words while Bruce let out a chuckle. Being with me for so many years he knew that I loved to bamboozle people.

"Y... You have a quin jet?", The director asked.

"Correction: I have 5 quin jets." The director was speechless for a while. "Fury, I am the CEO of A²H, a company which makes anything with an engine. You should be shocked if I don't have a quin jet! Am I right or am I right, Bruce?"

My scientist friend laughed and responded, "As always, you are right, Princess (Y/n)."

"Thank you. So Fury, I will there in my private quin jet, tomorrow morning. And under no circumstances will S.H.I.E.L.D be able to dictate Kaal. Do we have a deal Mr. Fury?", I said and waited for the director to reply. He surprisingly enough, just laughed and looked at me.

"You always have your own terms and conditions, don't you?", He asked me. I shrugged and nodded.

"Do we have a deal?", I asked boldly.

"Yes we do, your highness. I agree to your terms and conditions." I grinned when my offer was accepted and looked at my Green Bird.

His hands were folded and he had a smile playing on his lips, his eyes looking at the conversation unfold between Nick Fury and I with great interest, contaminated with sadistic pleasure.

By moving my eyes and eyebrows I asked him what he thought of the whole conversation and the other gave me a thumbs up. I winked at him and looked the man in front of me directly I the eye.

"Wonderful then. Dr. Banner and I will there tomorrow. Good night director. Come along Bruce.", I said and walked out, my heels clicking on the wooden flooring.

The director stood there gawking. My best friend of 10 years looked at our once adversary and now colleague and caught up to me. Soon the the both of us were walking out of the room when the director's amused voice made me halt at the door, my back still turned to him.

"Y'know there is a category for unsubmissive ladies like yourself, your highness.", He said.

I smirked. "Is it HBIC, director?", I asked.

"Yes. Exactly that.", The other replied.

"Well, happy realization day, then Fury.", Bruce said supporting me. I hit his arm playfully and walked out with my friend.

"Sometimes you over do it, Dr. Banner.", I commented.

"Well then, pardon me, your highness Crown Princess (Y/n).", He quipped. I laughed.

Nick Fury's P.O.V.

As soon as the heiress to the throne of the original land of the one horned rhino left the room, a voice flooded through my earpiece.

"How's she like, Sir?", Agent Maria Hill inquired.

"Did she find out about the coverage?", Asked agent Phil Coulson.
"Easy agents! Don't get your emotions so unstable. Agent Coulson, to answer your question, yes she did find out about the coverage and to answer your question, Agent Hill... Well, I would just like to say, Tony Stark better watch out for this one!" Agent Coulson laughed while Agent Hill snickered.
