The Avengers were all chilling in the lounge room deciding what film to watch and preparing snacks when tony came running in. This was the first time they had seem Tony run for something other than food. They were worried

"Guys, we have a BIG PROBLEM! Ok..so i was just looking through some things in my computer and I've found out that some Red Room documents from somewhere, which we also have were opened by a connection in the tower. Now. It's save you the hassle of thinking. It was Emma. I just know it is. No one in the company would have any idea or the time to do something like this.

This isn't even the worst thing about it. She managed to find a photo of her mum and Nat talking after her supposed death!

Now i don't know about you, but i can imagine that she's going to be pissed about the breach of trust, which is why I'll let you deal with it whilst i try and find out how this photo was captured"

And then he was gone again before anyone could fully process the information and stop him he was gone.

Plus if tony wanted to stay in his lab, he could. You could do nothing against it. He was gone for the time being.

But that's not what mattered right now. Emma had managed to find something it which they were trying to explain to her in the worst way possible. Everyone was worried. They hadn't even began they're team building exercises yet.

Nat was worried how Emma would react to her. Honestly, it seemed that everything with them was going downhill. She couldn't stop it. It was if the world was against her in all the good she wanted to do. The rest of the team knew that this would make her hate them even more and what probably cause them to drift. All they wanted was to help her. Bruce even wanted her as an intern. They wanted her to go back and have fun in her normal life. It's what she deserved.

Everyone knew that Emma was already struggling with the weight of being trapped in the tower. They couldn't imagine how she felt right now. They assumed she would be sulking, and upset about the situation which was not technically a lie.

That's the thing about assumption. It doesn't mean you're correct and can make you underestimate people

I woke up yet again but with a new mentality. I was sick of playing the damsel in distress card. I knew I still had my powers from being struck by that weird gun whilst on patrol as the Menace, which I hid in the red room. I need an escape and there's no better time than the present than to test these powers.

I'm not stupid enough to attempt to use my powers openly in my room as these people probable have cameras. So I went into the bathroom and shut the door.

As I faced myself in the mirror, I realised I needed to fix my appearance. That's step 1 of helping myself.

I shouldn't be dwelling on the past. What's done is done, I can't change that easily but what I can do is change what I do in the future. I need to earn trust whilst also getting a grip on my powers so when the time comes I'll be able to escape. It's not like I'll want to stay here even if they are nicer to me.

I need the Stark-band on my ankle off or these powers will be worth nothing if I can't even leave the building.

Once I've fixed my appearance in order to think more positively, and start. And oh my god this might have been the worst decision of my life.

——————————————————————

First I need to be able to summon my powers by will. Fortunately I've had no outbreaks since the last time I tried using them which is a miracle.

I could pull some strands of whatever this power is for a couple of second before it fizzled away unlike last time.

I tried this for at least 30 minutes with no improvement. I mean come on I wasn't going to master this in 30 minutes was I?

I'd like to state that I'm not a very patient person, so there was a fair share of screams involved.

Finally after having a sweat starting to form on my forehead, I slammed my hands down on the counter in frustration. Aghhhhhh!

"This is too hard!"

Of course due to my luck that's when my powers started to work. In a flash my blue powers headed straight towards my mirror and smashed it. Well it kinda just stayed in its place and shattered. Through the cracks I could see my eyes glowing as well as my fingertips.

So anger is what causes it? I mean it would make sense since last time I used them I was thinking about my mom being absent.

Is anger and magical powers a good mix? It's gotta be if that's what works, right?

Things happen for a reason.

Now i just need to gain their trust in order to try and escape.

I've managed to get my officers off my case. I went on my mission as usual. It wasn't a long one but of course it was in New York. Sometimes these people are idiots.

Did they think I wouldn't look for Emma, and be the heartless monster they ant me to be?

After working for many years, you come up for many ways in which you can kill someone, or at least fake their death. I have many ways. The best way you ask? A fire. If I'm caught in a fire and can't get out and my body is completely burned how will they recognise me?

So here i am in a room where a computer mainframe is. All it takes is one slip up which they'll never know about to set this thing alight. So, thats what i do. I watch as plastic and metal catch on fire and start creating these magnificent flames.

I think I might be a pyromaniac.

And no, i am not sacrificing another person as my decoy. I managed to nab a skull from another room in this place. They had one of those biology ones. I set it in the middle of the computers whilst also taking all the teeth out as that is the only way they could prove the body does not belong to me. I then use the rest of the skeleton and put it under 2 big , computers where the leg is only hanging out. It makes it look like i was sabotaged. I also rip some fabric from my discreet public clothes to add effect.

Sure, this plan might not work but it will set them back for a while.

Long enough for me to get back to Emma.

All i need to do now is get the attention of the Avengers. I want to be with Emma.

And so, I sneak out of the building, hiding my ripped clothes under my hoodie to look less suspicious and start making my way to the huge Avengers tower in the middle of the city. Visible from anywhere.

You may think, if it's so visible why hasn't Hydra attacked? Well that's because there is a force field above the 2nd floor to stoop unknown guests from crashing into the building. What? I looked at their blueprints. The only way someone would get inside is through the front door.

And thats what I'll do.

I'm extra worried for Emma. First she had a bad start here and now she finds out a big secret. I know everyone is worried for her reaction. I know everyone wants her to be happy. They somehow all just liked her from the first day, even though some didn't even talk to her. Also it might be because she could be a new agent in our team, as soon as she recovers from her time in the red room.

I also know that Nat was insistent on ending her due to her being a threat, but her good nature even in this bad time proved her wring. I don't think anyone sees her as a threat. She's done nothing out of the ordinary for someone in this situation. I hope nat stays the same way. I know she feels terrible for everything thats happened because lets be real, it kinda is her fault, but we'll support her none the less. We all make mistakes, and i know that Nat needs facts straight away. She doesn't like being in the unknown.

Okay....maybe she does see her as a bit of a threat.

The whole team was in the lounge wondering if we should call Emma down to watch the film with us. We haven't started it yet. Despite the drama i still have our snacks ready and have left a seat for her next to me if she decides to come.

Steve was about to ask whether she was coming, whilst i was also thinking of going for a swing to clear my mind when Emma came in. It's like at that moment in time everyone had super hearing because they all turned too her.

Gee guys, way to make her uncomfortable. I raise my hand and make and pat the seat next to me indicating that we should sit together.

She tilts her head in a really cute way as if deciding what she's going to do. Eventual;lay she does and sits on my left. We look at each other and smile.

She seems to be doing ok, i think? There are some marks on her face that indicate that she was crying, and some redness and puffiness but she looks quite content. Not angry or upset. As i look into her eyes, i think to myself, have her eyes always been this vibrant blue? Because they're so pretty.

I'm knocked out of my trance when she asks if she can have some snacks. I say of course whilst the rest of the team slowly turns to each other to ask what's going on.

I give them all "the look" as if to tell them, 'guys look away, you're making things awkward'. I also give Nat a look of reassurance. Me and Emma don't talk, we just nibble on our snacks. It's not awkward though, as i feel content here with her. The team then choose a film for us to watch. It's only around 3ish so we could watch a couple. We choose Fast and Furious 7.

Me and Emma try and get comfortable on the couch. I hand her the snacks and grab a blanket for me and her. Emma doesn't look at anyone else except me. As i sot back down with the blanket Emma smiles and scoots a bit closer to me.

I don't know what changed her opinion of me but right now I don't care. I'm closer to her than i have been in years.

——————————————————

After around 50 minutes of the film and Emma smiling each time she eats a different snack, that i so expertly hand picked i feel a weight starting to settle on my shoulder. I don't want to turn and look as i don't want to ruin the possible moment I'm in.

I wait 5 minutes before i sneak a peek. Omg! I was right! She's fallen asleep with her head on my shoulder! This is the cutest and best thing in my life. It's obvious i love Emma and i know all of our moments wont be like this but if we can because closer friends even by doing things like this then maybe my fantasy of our relationship could become real. But my main priority is helping Emma recover although this moment is one i will never forget.

I don't want to question why she's so close to me i just savour the moment.

I hope Peter doesn't think I'm forgiving him, this is all part of my plan. I still despise the kid. Trust must be earnt, and since he broke it last time it will take longer this time.

You might think I'm over exaggerating but I'm not. Imagine your only friend, your best friend leaving you because he didnt want to tell you something when you literally share everything with each other. And then you have to go to school feeling alone as no one else likes you.

Plus i just need to rest my eyes. There's nothing wrong with that!
