- Tony Stark -
When that girl lunged at Romanoff, I didn't hesitate to go after her and shoot her, but it didn't do the slightest damage. I had to hit her, she fell on the other side of the building while she was getting up I managed to hit her in the face. By force she turned her head, then she turned it and spit on the side, growling at me. Big mistake.
- "..sorry." - She roars at me and hits me with her tail, making me fly away.
I fell on the other side of the building and she got on top of me, she roared in my face and some drops of blood came out of her mouth
- "But what bad breath you have." - She was going to take off my helmet, but Romanoff shot a missile at her from the quinjet, making her retreat to the edge of the building. - "Jarvis, a tranquilizer dart. but let it be to take down an elephant."-
- "Yes sir." - The girl when she realized who had shot the missile at her, went to her. I aimed at her neck and shot the dart at her, when I hit the target, she started walking with what strength she had left. Finally, she falls to the ground, she de-transforms and we approach her aiming at her in case she gets up and attacks us again, then she falls unconscious.
- "She's asleep, right?" - Jarvis scans her from top to bottom.
- "The results of the analysis are positive." -
- "Thank goodness. We have to inform Fury that we found her." - Said the Cap.
- "Don't take all the credit, because I was the one who found her first... well,
rather, she found me."-
The Cap took the girl in his arms, and the four of us entered the quinjet to go to the helicarrier.
- Half an hour later -
After a long time of travel, well, it seemed long to me; we arrived at the helicarrier.
The Cap still had the unconscious girl in his arms.
- "When is she going to wake up?" - Romanoff asks, looking at the girl as we walk.
- "The dart was to put an elephant to sleep, so I estimate about ... 30 more minutes." - We entered and the captain left her in a room. Then we went to the command room and the patch was already waiting for us.
- "Did you find her?"-
- "Or rather, she found Tony." - Said Romanoff sitting at the table.
- "It's almost always the other way around." - I said sitting down.
- "What happened?" - Said a person entering, it was Dr. Banner.
- "The girl followed Tony and ended up fighting against the three of them. She easily took down Tony and I." - Rogers tells Fury.
- "I almost went to the other world for her wanting to eat me. Who was it that provoked her?"-
- "She got upset when she heard Nat say that she could help us." - I gave a light laugh and then said:
- "So Romanoff provoked her. And she said not to provoke her."-
- "Enough, she must have some trauma to act like that. Besides, it wasn't just her, do you remember?"-
- "No, I don't remember, could you remind me?"-
- "She had some kind of animal in her. It must be what gives her the strength and abilities that she used against us."-
- "It must also be what forces her to resort to cannibalism, it seems. She was going to take off my helmet and EAT my head. And as you know, my head is too valuable for a teenager to take it off my body."-
- "She must be in a state of starvation or cannibalism if she almost ate Tony."- comments Banner.
- "The girl, where is she?" - Asks Maria Hill, arriving with us.
- "She's in a room, asleep." - Answered Cap.
- "From how they describe her I don't think she can be held here for long."-
- "In about 20 minutes, she'll wake up so we don't have to–" - An explosion was heard from afar, followed by a roar.
- "You were saying, Stark?" - Romanoff asks me rhetorically
- "She woke up earlier than expected."-
- "No way. I just heard her, Rogers." - Everyone leaves the room and I go get my suit.
- Writer -
Blake was unconscious. Grid tried hard to wake her up but she didn't react. So Grid decided to take control and knocked down the door by lunging.
She roars, warning that she is free.
Several agents go to the scene and point their weapons at him. The Captain, Natasha, and Iron Man make an appearance.
- "Don't do something you'll regret later." - Said the Captain
- "The person you want to talk to is not available at the moment. Please call back later."- Answered the symbiote.
- "It's obvious that she doesn't like you." - Comments Iron Man.
- "Stark, that's not helping. We have to knock her out."-
- "HEY!"- Grid turns around, meeting Fury.- "My name is Nickolas Joseph Fury, leader of S.H.I.E.L.D. We just want to talk to you in the most civil way possible. So de-transform and we'll talk." - Grid analyzed it well, he didn't want to do that, but he didn't want to be put to sleep again.
- "AGH! FINE! You win. Only under a few conditions."-
- "Which ones?"- Fury and the others pay attention to him.
- "Wake up my friend, and after talking to you, we will help you... we leave here peacefully." - Fury stays silent for a few moments and looks at the agents.
- "Put them down. I accept. Go with Banner so he can wake up your friend." - The aforementioned got nervous when Grid positioned himself next to him. Natasha accompanied them for anything, while the Captain and Stark remained silent.
- "Did you really accept his conditions?" - The Captain asked somewhat indignantly.
- "He set the conditions. Not the girl. Maybe they can come to an agreement and help us with another problem."-
- With Grid, Banner and Natasha -
Grid was on a large stretcher, not looking at Natasha.
- "What are you?" - Natasha asked seriously. But Grid just turned a deaf ear. - "I asked you something."-
- "That's none of your business, For now." - Answers the symbiote.
- "Okay, here's something to wake up your friend." - Grid lies down and then de-transforms so Banner can wake Blake, who suddenly wakes up because of the strong smell.
- "What happened? Where are we?" - Asks Blake, disoriented and looking around until she sees the symbiote.
- "On the Helicarrier. I met Nick Fury in person." - Grid answers her. - "I said that after they wake you up, talk to us and we help them, we're leaving."-
- "That sounds good to me." - She sits on the stretcher. 'I just want to know what they want and that they leave us alone.'
- "Not without first telling us your name and what he is." - Romanoff stood in front of the two; Blake just glared at her and turned around to get off the stretcher and head for the exit.
- "Don't try to get information out of us. They're not ready to know." - Blake opened the door and left; Natasha just stood there with an incredulous expression at her attitude.
- "You must not like him, from what I heard." - Says Banner.
- "No way."-
- Blake -
I headed to wherever Nick Fury was; along the way, several agents looked at me in surprise. After a while, I ran into Stark, who had two cups of coffee. It was like 10 or 11 in the morning, so it's normal for someone to drink coffee at this time. But two is already an exaggeration.
- "Oh, there you are. The Capipaleta was going to pick you up, but I see you got rid of Romanoff."-
- "I manage to get out of any trouble."-
- "Well, um... Do you want one?" - He said, inviting me to a cup of coffee, to be honest, I hadn't had any. - "Take it; it won't bite you or poison you."- he said jokingly; I could barely smile; how could he be like this after almost killing him? I took the cup of coffee, still undecided. I thank him with my head and take a sip of the coffee.
- "B-Blake."- I said in a whisper.
- "What?"-
- "My name is Blake, Blake Fixgard." - I say, already audible to his ears.
-"Nice to meet you, Blake."-
-"My body friend is called Grid." - The aforementioned comes out from behind me and nods his head, as a greeting - "We regret how we treated you earlier."-
-"It doesn't matter, let's just forget about it, okay?"-
-"If you say so, Stark…"-
-"Please, just call me Tony."- He said, starting to walk, we hurried to keep up with him.
-"It 's okay... Tony.-
-"Hey, you seem to be more sociable."-
-"I'm barely trying to be. Being missing and in prison for four years has taken away my sociability and confidence. It's like a kind of trauma, what we lived through."-
-"I see, that explains why you didn't want to tell us your name. You didn't trust us because of that."- Did they imagine us as people with a syringe in their hands, with whips or something like that?
-"No need to exaggerate. But something like that. But it is one of the reasons why we behave like that."- Tony looks at me with intrigue.
-"And what is it?" - I feel a tear running down my cheek, I wipe it away and continue.
-"A week ago, we left there, with some bullet wounds, but alive. The first thing I did was go home, hoping to see my family again. But when I arrived, I saw the harsh reality; my family had died. I don't know how it happened, but it had been a year since they died. My hopes fell apart, I felt empty inside, I didn't have what made me happy today when I was only 11 years old since I disappeared." - Tony remained silent, he couldn't articulate a word because of what I said. But after walking for a few seconds he encouraged himself to speak.
-"I'm sorry for your loss. I didn't know, and I shouldn't have started this."-
-"I know it wasn't on purpose, I just wanted to let off steam."-
-"Are you 15 years old?"- he asks curiously.
-"I'm going to turn 15 soon."-
-"So 14 years old. You're still very young. When do you turn 15?"-
-"In a month."-
-"So... if you change your mind... I'll throw you a birthday party. What do you think?"- he said and asked, looking at us.
-"I don't understand what you mean, can you explain it to me?"- I let out a giggle at what Grid said and told him I'll explain it to him later.
-"Sounds good to me."- I took another sip of coffee, and Tony patted me on the shoulder in support.
-"Keep going." - Grid cleared his throat, and Tony corrected. - "Ah, yes, right. Keep going."- we arrived at a room where Rogers, Banner, and Natasha were sitting at a table, and a black man who had a patch on his left eye.
-"They're finally here."- says Natasha, looking at us.
-"Grid…"-
-"You don't need to say it."- with that said, he hides and I wait for something that makes me react.
-"You can sit next to me."- I looked at Tony who was sitting, then I sat next to him.
-"I'm surprised she listens to you."- says Rogers looking at me out of the corner of his eye.
-"Calm down, Cap, she's okay, right?"- he says and asks me; I just nod - "See It's okay."
-"Miss…"- the man with the eyepatch started talking to me as if he was expecting my name.
-"Blake Fixgard."- I answer with a little confidence.
-"Well, Blake, my name is Nickolas Fury, but just call me Fury. The reason she's here is so she can help us with a recent problem. With his experience maybe we have a chance."-
-"Our help in... What?"-
-"I'll give you some context: a few days ago, an object called the Tesseract was being tested. Something that was found years ago from space, and after that a guy called Loki arrived, who took it along with one of my best agents. This caused me to call these people. But then, it appeared on the news that there was something or someone who was taking care of criminals. Then we found out that you were here, and I had asked the Captain,"- he pointed at Rogers - "to go find you. But I see that you followed Stark, and they ended up making a mess."- I tensed up when he said the last thing, I felt Rogers' gaze on me. I don't know how to react.
-"Yes, we have to forget that detail because... That was what provoked her."-
-"She's right in what she says."- I murmur.
-"With the anecdotes of Stark, Romanoff, and Rogers, you were able to defeat them without problems…"-
-"Rather, WE were the ones who were able to take them down with ease."- I said referring to Grid.
-"I feel like a weakling with you."- I laughed under my breath at what Tony said.
-"I just want to know why she was difficult with the three of them. You could have done it in a good way."- damn, what do I say now? I was nervous, Tony noticed it and answered for me.
-"She refused because she saw us as the people who mistreated her when she was 11."- he said and he looked at me discreetly and winked, sketched a half smile and erased it instantly. I'm starting to think that he's not entirely arrogant and self-centered.
-"And by any chance did she tell you who those people were?"- Damn, Rogers. I barely trust Tony and you think I'm going to tell him everything at once.
-"EHHH we're barely making progress, for now I don't know. Until she has more confidence, she'll tell us."-
-"Well, what happened to your parents? Do they know about this?"- when he said that, I lowered my head sadly, holding back the urge to cry.
-"OH, you touched on a very sensitive subject for her."- he said trying to calm me down, Natasha, Banner and Rogers remained silent at the revelation. It was more than obvious.
-"She lost her parents... right?"- until you realize it, Rogers. I just nodded, still with my head down.
-"My most sincere condolences. In this case... Someone will have to take care of her."- Fury says, to which Tony intervenes.
-"I will"- I look at him incredulously. - "I will take care of her as if she were my daughter. Besides, she has a little more confidence in me than in the others."-
-"Fine, Stark. You will take care of her."- I smiled to myself, my happiness was immense. I finally have something I will have again, what I once called…
Family.
