.8.

"What are you doing Mr. Stark?" Fury asked, storming into the room.

"Uh-oh pirate man is angry~" Sang Wade, seemingly happy.

"You little-" Tony was interrupted by a shoe being thrown at his face by none other than Nova.

"Shut up you man whore." Said Nova.

"Uh, kind of been wondering the same thing about you." Tony retaliated.

"you're supposed to be locating the Tesseract." Fury glared.

"We are. The model's locked and we're sweeping for the signature now. When we get a hit, we'll have the location within half a mile." Bruce pointed over at a screen.

"Yeah, you get your cube back. No muss, no fuss. What is 'phase 2'?" Tony quizzed.

A slam echoed through the room as Steve entered, placing a large gun on the table. Nova looked up at the gun and her eyes widened in shock before they glared at Fury.

"Dang he's hot." Whispered Wade to a fellow Hufflepuff.

"Not the time to be gay Wade."

"Bitch I'm Bi."

"Shhhhh."

"Phase 2 is S.H.I.E.L.D. uses the cube to make weapons. Sorry, computer was moving a little slow for me." Steve apologize.

"Hot."

"We get it Wade shut the fuck up."

"ERIC!!"

"Sorry Minnie!!"

"Rogers, we gathered everything related to the Tesseract. This does not mean that we're making-" Fury began.

"I'm sorry, Nick what were you lying?" Tony asked spinning the screen he was using. "I'd also like to know who I'm working with."

"I was wrong, director." Steve began, though Tony's comment confused him. "The world hasn't change a bit."

"Did you know about this?" Bruce question Natasha as her and Thor entered the room.

"You want to think about removing yourself from this environment, Doctor? You too, Nova?" Natasha asked.

"Poison Onyx, more like." Tony mumbled as Nova stiffened.

Harry glared at Tony. How dare he say that and make his sister uncomfortable. He need to figure out how to get his sister to talk to him, then he'll convince her to come back to him.

"Yeah, I'll do that" He mumbled, nodding to himself.

Meanwhile Sirius Black has been sitting in his seat, quietly thinking to himself. He didn't know what to think about these people that is currently sitting with his niece, millions of thoughts cross his mind all at once. He think about how his niece will be in a lot of danger, how she could die from doing these things, but the one thought that stayed on his mind like an unwavering piece of flower standing all alone is,

"As long as she's happy." Sirius mumbled to himself, while Remus smile knowingly.

"I was in Calcutta. I was pretty well removed." Bruce chuckled.

"Loki is manipulating you both." Natasha states as she moved towards Nova and Bruce.

"And you've been doing what, exactly? Huh, doll face?" Nova rose her eyebrows, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Please she's so hot." Said Ginny. Nova rose her eyebrows in surprise, at the same time as Harry.

"Neither of you came here because I bat my eyelashes at you." Natasha argued.

"Yes, and we're not leaving because suddenly you get all twitchy." Bruce stated.

"I'd like to know why S.H.I.E.L.D. is using the Tesseract to build weapons of mass destruction." Nova pointed at the screen.

"Because of him." Fury pointed at Thor.

"Me?" Thor asked.

"Last year, earth had a visitor from another planet who had a grudge match that levelled a small town. We learned that not only are we not alone, but we are hopelessly, hilariously, outgunned. As well as Venom, don't even get me started." Fury explained as Nova looked down.

"My people want nothing but peace with your planet." Thor defended.

"But you're not the only people out there, are you?" Fury quizzed. "And you're not the only threat. The world's filling up with people that can't be matched, that can't be controlled."

"Like you control the cube?" Steve question.

"You forced our hand. We had to come up with something-" Fury began.

"A nuclear deterrent. Because that always calms everything right down." Tony butted in.

"What's a nuclear?" asked a Slytherin prefect. 

A muggle born from Hufflepuff that was seated in the Slytherin table from the beginning of the movie starts to explained to the purebloods, on what is a nuclear. Safe to say the purebloods are horrified.

"Remind me again how you made your fortune, Stark." Fury argued.

"I'm sure if he still made weapons, Stark would be neck-deep-" Steve began.

"Hold on. How is this now about me?" Tony question.

"I'm sorry, isn't everything?" Steve quipped.

"I thought humans were more evolved than this." Thor stated smugly.

"Sadly, no."

"Excuse me, did we come to your planet and blow stuff up?" Fury turned to the blonde.

"You treat your champions with such mistrust." Thor raised his voice.

"Are you  boys really that naive?" Natasha joined the argument. "S.H.I.E.L.D. monitors potential threats."

"Earth mightiest heroes everyone." Nova muttered.

"Captain America's on threat watch?" Bruce raised an eyebrow.

"We all are." Natasha stated.

"Wait, you're on that list? Are you above or below angry bees? What about you Poison Onyx?" Tony turned to Nova.

"Call me that one more time and I swear to Go-" Nova began.

"What? you'll assassinate me?" Tony question, smugly.

"Fury, what's Stark talking about?" Natasha quizzed, standing next to the taller woman.

"We kept Nova's files a secret from everyone else since we didn't know if she would flip out and eat everyone if we exposed her." Fury answered as everyone grew quiet.

"Asshole."

"Shithead."

"KIDS!!"

"I am very happy to eat Nick Fury." Venom hissed stretching from Nova's shoulder.

"No. Not yet" Nova gritted as everyone argument started again.

No one in the room noticed that Loki's sceptre was glowing brightly as they continued to argued. Venom shrunk back into Nova's body as Natasha looked up at the woman with an unknown emotion on her face.

"You speak of control, yet you court chaos." Thor argued.

"That's his M.O, isn't it?" Bruce asked as everyone turned to him. "I mean, what are we, a team? No, we're a chemical mixture that makes chaos. We're time bomb."

"You need to step away." Fury ordered.

"Why shouldn't the guy let off a little steam?" Tony asked.

"You know damn well why. Back off!" Steve shouted, pushing off Tony's hand when he went to place it on his shoulder.

"I'm starting to want you to make me." Tony stated.

"That's what she said." Venom laugh in Nova's head while she pinch her nose.

"That's what she said." Nova and Sirius said at the same time as her counter part on the screen. They stared at each other not moving their gaze anywhere else, until the argument on the screen continued.

"Yeah. Big man in a suit of armour. Take that off what are you?" Steve questioned, moving in front of the man. 

"Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist." Tony answered while Natasha and Nova nodded in agreement.

this cause some of the people in the great hall chuckled. They had to admit this guy is funny.

Hermione scoffed. This is not a place to make jokes.

"I know guys with none of that worth ten of you." Steve quipped. "I've seen the footage. The only thing you really fight for is yourself."

"I don't think that's fair." Nova mumbled in thought.

"You're not the guy to make the sacrifice play, to lay down a wire and let the other guy crawl over you." Steve continued.

"I think I would just cut the wire." Tony argued.

"Always a way out." Steve smirked, glancing around the tense room. "You may not be a threat, but you better stop pretending to be a hero."

"A hero? Like you? You're a laboratory experiment, Rogers. Everything special about you came out of a bottle. no offence Nova." Tony spared a glance at the women.

"None taken." The woman sigh.

"Put on the suit. Let's go a few rounds." Steve threatened.

"You people are so petty and tiny." Thor laugh.

"Shut the fuck up, Goldielocks." Nova groaned,

"yeah, this is a team." Bruce mumbled.

"Agent Romanoff, would you escort Dr. banner and nova to their-" Fury began.

"Where? You rented our room." Nova scoffed, crossing her arms over her chest.

"The cell was just in case-" Fury tried.

"In case you needed to kill me, but you can't. I know, I tried." Bruce argued as everyone went silent. Nova looked at the man with sympathy in her eyes that he returned. "I got low. I didn't see an end. So, I put a bullet in my mouth, and the other guy spit it out. So I moved on. I focus on helping other people. I was good. Until you dragged me back into this freak show and put everyone here at risk. Agent Romanoff? You wanna know how I stay calm?"

Bruce looked down he didn't want people to hear about his suicide attempt. The Avengers looked at him with concern.

Bruce didn't realized he had picked up the spear. Nova moved and stood next to Natasha, Pulling a knife from her pocket while Natasha and Fury places their hands over their gun.

Harry frowned, his sister shouldn't be with these people.

"Bruce put down the sceptre." Nova said, softly.

Bruce looked down in realization as a computer beeped in the lab making everyone turn to  it. Nova slipped the knife back into her pocket and glance to Natasha who was still holding her gun.

"Got it." Fury stated.

"Sorry kids, You don't get to see my party trick after all." Bruce mumbled, placing the sceptre down as he and Nova walked towards the computer.

"You located the Tesseract?" Thor asked.

"I could get there the fastest." Tony said.

"The Tesseract belongs on Asgard. No human is match for it." Thor stated.

"You're not going alone." Steve grabbed Tony's arm.

"Put on the suit, let's find out." Steve threatened.

"I'm not afraid to hit an old man." Tony said. 

"Put on the suit." Steve growled.

The computer in front of Bruce and Nova began beeping again as Bruce took off his glasses in shock.

"Oh, my God." Bruce mumbled before a large explosion erupted.

"Oh, my god." people grew worried for the Avengers. Sirius looked horrified, worried sick for his niece. Remus was sitting there comforting Sirius, even though he feels the same.
