Understanding Me

Lab Tests

After the meeting, Bruce, once he had collected himself, walked over to me. "I'm going to need you to come down to the lab some time today. I need to take a blood test from you, so we can start looking at the mutations in your blood and get an understanding as to what is happening." He explained. I nodded my head accordingly before questioning.

"Anytime in particular?"

"Any time in the next couple hours would be great." He smiled before following others out of the room. I decided that firstly, I would go back to the room and study up on the mission. Again, I wasn't sure what my role in the group was, leading to the bigger picture of why I was even here.

The files were focused on this guy, he didn't have a name, nor did they have any form of proper facial recognition. He was a blur on the system who was stealing radioactive radiation from the burial sites around the country. Apparently, he had also been stealing waste products from S.H.I.E.L.D for years. On each page there was a list of memos that we as a team needed to complete, each task catering to one specific person. Except throughout all of it, I couldn't find one thing I could do or help with. My mind leading again to the same question.

Once I had finished reading through the information, I decided to make my way to the lad, leading to another question... where is the lab? I was in Stark tower and I had no clue where anything was. I thought my best option would be to try and navigate around somehow. Either I would by chance find the lab or find someone who knows their way to the lab.

After about ten minutes of walking, I bumped into a large, strong, chest, and as I heard the familiar soft breathing, I wouldn't will myself to look up to the person. "Looking for something?" Asked Steve in front of me. I shook my head and backed away nervous before realising how stupid I looked and ran back around to him.

"Actually yes! I'm looking for the lab, if you know where that is of course." He seemed surprised before nodding and smiling.

"I'll take you." He said, placing his had on my lower back and guiding me around the hallways which reminded me of the Helicarrier. As we walked, I couldn't help but picture his hands all over my body and him holding me close. And just when the inappropriate images entered my mind, I vigorously shook them from my head. Upon seeing my frustration, he looked down to me concerned. I smiled back in response.

A couple of minutes later, we stopped in front of a glass door saying 'Laboratory'. Steve's hand left my back, to my dismay, and he looked to me once more, his eyes tracing my body, before stalking back down the hall as if nothing happened. Shaking out the remerging images, I knocked twice on the door before it swung open to see a concentrated Banner. He gestured for me to come in and sit down before pulling a needle from the side of the desk.

"Right, so I'm just going to take a small amount of blood, you've had blood test before, haven't you?" I nodded my head before looking away from Banner and the needle pinching my skin. He slowly pulled out the syringe and placed it on the side, so once I leave he can start analysing my blood. "Okay, great! The results should come back in about a week. Until then you can just relax, look more into the mission and start practicing your powers." He added kindly. I jumped off on the medical bed and on to the floor below. I turned, nodded my head towards Banner before looking swiftly to head back to my room.

I could just about remember the way there, and so getting back to the room wasn't that hard. Once seeing the door, I entered the room, only to find Steve sitting at the desk where I was previously. He looked concentrated on the information, but still looked in my direction when I walked in.

"Hey Steve, I have a couple of questions."
