"They've been experimented on, it's possible for them to have other powers than what we know about." Harry replied. "As for the girl her powers are more varied than the boy's, she can blast you and mess with your mind. Look at me, my powers are labelled under 'magic' but what that basically means is a wide variety of powers under the term of 'reality shifting'."
"Well, they're probably going to turn up again." Steve said as they stopped at an elevator door.
"True," Gwen agreed just as Steve got in the elevator. "the file says they volunteered for Strucker's experiments."
"That tells me they either didn't know what they were volunteering for, the information is wrong and they didn't volunteer or they did know what they were volunteering for and didn't care." Harry replied.

Harry found himself standing in Avenger's tower, wearing a black suit with a white shirt. Standing next to him was Sif, who was wearing a blue knee length dress and a small purple jacket. Her hair which was usually straight or in a pony tail, had been styled so it fell to one side of her face and was more curly than before.
The reason they were both dressed up was because they were both currently attending a celebration party hosted by Tony who had invited all the Avengers. The rest of the party population was made up of various different rich and/or famous people. Harry admittedly would have preferred to spend a quiet night at home but between all of the Avenger's wanting him to come, Nat included, and Sif wanting to attend a Midgardian party with him, he reluctantly came. Part of the reason why he came was simply because he knew he needed to spend some time outside of his home that isn't spent on missions.
Sif had chosen to stay near Harry and the other Avenger's for the night, she wasn't yet completely comfortable with interacting with other people. She mostly worried about embarrassing herself or the others by not knowing something that would be considered common knowledge by everyone else.
At the moment Sif had joined Harry, Tony and Thor as they were stood listening to a story that Rhodey was telling. Gwen was also with them, wearing a silver knee length dress.
"So I take the tank, fly it right up to the general's palace, drop it at his feet and I'm like 'boom, are you looking for this?'" Rhodey smiled, only for it to fade away when Tony looked amused while Thor and the others looked unimpressed. "I dropped it at his feet and I said 'boom are you…', why do I even talk to you guys? Everywhere else that story kills."
"That's the whole story?" Thor asked.
"Yeah, it's a War Machine story." Rhodey nodded.
"It's very good then." Thor said quickly, "very impressive."
"Quality save." Rhodey rolled his eyes.
"Rhodey," Harry spoke. "there was once a giant snake about sixty feet long with venom that could kill even Thor over here and would kill a regular person in less than a minute, it also had a pair of magical eyes that could kill you if you looked at them. I killed it with a sword… when I was twelve years old. And that was the year before I fought off soul sucking demons. Your story might sound nice but what you are basically doing is telling a bunch of doctors about the one time you put on a band aid." Rhodey gaped at him slightly before Tony's amused snort shot him back to reality.
"Shut up," Rhodey said to Tony, though not harshly. "so… no Pepper?" She's not coming?"
"No." Tony shook his head. "Miss Potts has a company to run." Tony shrugged.
"What about Jane?" Gwen asked Thor. "You didn't invite her?"
"She was unable to attend." Thor said sadly. "I'm not even sure what country she's in, her work on the convergence has made her the world's foremost astronomer."
"And the company that Pepper runs is the largest tech conglomerate on Earth, it's pretty exciting." Tony replied.
"There's even talk of Jane getting a… what's it called… Nobel prize."
"Yes, yes, we get it." Harry rolled his eyes. "Your girlfriends are smart and brilliant."
"Jane's better." Thor commented before taking a sip of his drink.
"What about you?" Gwen asked Harry. "You're not going to talk about how your girls are better?"
"I don't need to," Harry shrugged. "besides, these two can brag all they want. I'm the one with the sexiest spy in the world and the prettiest Asgardian in the world." Harry said, giving Sif a small lopsided grin, something that did not really help her as the poor woman was blushing so bad that it looked like she might melt.
"Oh that is adorable." Thor grinned.
"Shut up." Sif said as she slapped his arm.
"Come on, let's go before you two end up destroying the tower." Harry said as he offered Sif an arm, she slid her own arm in his and walked off with him.
"Thank you for the compliment." Sif said once they had separated from the others.
"I was just being honest, you are pretty." Harry replied.
"Thank you, it's just nice to hear it." Sif smiled.
"Has nobody ever told you that you were pretty?" Harry asked in a surprised voice.
"Fandral has, but he tells all women that. My friends, Thor included, have also said so. But they're my friends. It's just nice to hear it from you." Sif said just as they ran into Steve, who had two people with him.
"Ah Harry, this is Sam Wilson." Steve said as he gestured to a black skinned man who was standing next to him. "Sam, this this is Sif and and Harry, Harry is also known as…"
"Grim." Sam said, finishing Steve's sentence. "It's a pleasure to meet you." He said, extending his hand.
"Thanks, I suppose." Harry replied as he shook Sam's hand. "Have we met before?" Harry asked.
"No, I… just met Steve over here a small while ago. I'm a former member of the United States Air Force, I was also a test pilot for an advanced suit. There was apparently some mission that you were unavailable for and they needed another guy. One day I was going for a run when Steve over here flexes on me, then shows up a short while later asking for my help."
"That sounds like him." The second person with Steve snorted softly. The person had a brown beard and shoulder length hair, his left hand was covered in a glove.
"Bucky Barnes." Harry said, recognizing him.
"That's me," Bucky spoke in a soft voice. "apparently you're who I have to thank for getting me out of that ice."
"I just do what I think is right." Harry shrugged.
"You train him, Steve?" Bucky joked as he glanced between Harry and Steve.
"No," Steve chuckled. "actually Harry's older than I am."
"Better looking too." Harry commented before nodding at all three of them. "Alright, you gentlemen enjoy your day, and if possible try to get Steve laid." Harry said before he and Sif walked towards the bar.
"Has he been behaving?" Natasha's voice asked as they reached the bar. Natasha was standing behind the bar, making drinks. She was wearing a black knee length skirt, white shirt and had put some effort into her hair and wore earrings along with some red lipstick. He was pretty sure that she had other make up on but he wasn't sure, she began pouring a glass for Harry and Sif.
"He's been behaving perfectly." Sif smiled.
