You are in the lab, getting prepped for a review. They bring in a box and start the procedure by hooking up an IV to your arm. You follow the cord and see its connected to the box. Suddenly you feel an overwhelming surge of power shoot through your body.

You start feeling pain where the needle is in your arm. You start screaming, this is unlike any other torture they have done to you.

"Take it out!" You yell at the doctors surrounding you, but they ignore you.

You yank at the chains; you try to break free but whatever is in the box is preventing you using your powers.

Meanwhile in the hallway:

"What are we doing here?" One of the Colonels asked as him and two other men walked amongst the hall in confusion.

"Where is this weapon you have been talking so highly about?" The other man asked in curiosity.

The men continued to walk down a dark narrow hall; the Hydra Leader walked in front of them leading the way.

"Gentlemen, I assure you, this will change Hydra forever."

They turn right and come face to face with a metal door, as they do a scream echo from within.

"Is that screaming?" The first man asks, confused by what he just heard.

The leader stops and turns around slowly to look at the two colonels before him. He does not say anything for a few seconds.

"The weapon is a human?! A girl?! Have you lost your mind?" The second Colonel is astonished by this information and stands in front of the man who oversees this, wanting a reasonable explanation.

"Gentlemen, she is quite special, we have enhanced her." The Hydra Leader simply states as he turns back around and opens the door.

In the lab:

You look up to see two men walk in with the Hydra Leader, you feel the anger growing. This is the day you will break free. The power you feel from the box grows and you suddenly feel stronger.

"Do we know her name?" One of the men asks as he looks your way. You simply stare at them in anger.

"Yes, Y/N, we found her under building rubble from the bomb, very much alive with her wounds." The leader says as he walks towards the machine that you are connected to.

"We brought her back, healed her, I let the good doctor do what he does best." The leader continues as he walks to a cabinet behind him.

You manage to get free of your restraints, thanks to the good doctor who is hiding behind a wall.

"What are you doing?" One of the men yells as he sees you getting free of the cuffs.

The Hydra leader turns back around to see you staring at him and yells, "What are you doing!?"

You feel the power radiating inside of you and focus it on one of the men and you let your anger out. As you let the fire escape your hand, you notice something. The fire you aimed was blue.

You pass out in the chair, but you can still hear everything. You think to yourself, what the hell was that?

"Quickly, take the Tesseract out of the box. We need to begin." You could hear the the nervousness in the Good Doctor's voice.

"Doctor, do not make me regret not killing you." The Hydra Leader said sternly.

The Good Doctor places the Tesseract in a machine that you are connected to, as he does another round of energy surge through your body. Your eyes shoot open.

"Enough!" You scream as you feel yourself regain energy and let out what you feel. As you did this, the entire room becomes lit with bright blue electricity.

"She's activated it!" The Good Doctor exclaims as he looks at the room filled with the brightness of the blue.

"I said enough." You say as you jump off the chair, you think to yourself, 'I can get away now'. But before you could take another step an explosion happens in the building and knocks you out.

Hydra Compound

The Hydra Leader is walking through all the debris after the explosion that dismantled everything.

"The Avengers did this. They have destroyed everything!" He says angrily.

"N-not entirely sir." The Good Doctor says quietly. The leader looks at the doctor confused, it was obvious the Avengers destroyed every, including taking you back with them.

"What do you mean Doctor?"

"The girl, she carries the power of the Tesseract itself within her. We need only to get her back."

QUINJET

You're aboard the Quinjet with the Avengers, you regain consciousness, but you don't open your eyes you merely listen.

"I'll be right back." A woman says.

"Okay, I'll set course for home." A man says. You hear the woman come closer to you.

"How she looking?" she says, her voice is calm, but caring in a way.

"She should awake soon. What was Hydra doing with her?" says another man.

"She barely has a scratch on her, she looks perfectly fine." You could hear the question floating in his voice as he talked.

You stay quiet, unsure of whether or not you can trust them. You listen to the conversation they continue to have about you."

"Do we know her name?" The same man who spoke earlier to the woman says.

You make a fist, knowing they have no clue who you are, afraid they may chain you up for being with Hydra. You want to say, 'My name is Y/N', but you can't seem to find the words to speak. A single thought echoes through your head. They know of Hydra?

"She looks young, what do you think they wanted with her?"

"Well, the intel from SHIELD said Hydra was creating a weapon of some sort. She doesn't have a scratch on her, what are the odds?" You could hear the concern in his voice.

"She's not on SHIELD's database." The woman says, you hear typing.

"So we don't know her name?" He sounds closer to you now.

"Maybe she's Asgardian."

"I think I would know if she was Asgardian." Asgard?

"So you think this girl is the weapon?"

You fade into unconsciousness again.
