Since their fight with the Masters of Evil, Kalypso had been feeling antsy. She had patrolled the streets a bit and broke up small crimes where she could, but she wanted something more. She liked being part of a team when the Avengers and Thunderbolts had fought the Masters of Evil. It had been thrilling and exhilarating and it was what she wanted on a full time basis. At least for now. She had plenty of time to do other things.

She had decided that after her birthday she would go to the Avengers and see about full time membership. Her birthday had come and went by quietly and it was time to act.

Kalypso arrived at the Avengers' mansion and went to see who was around.

One moment she was in a front yard in the middle of nowhere Missouri getting ready to kick the ass of captain von weirdo.  The next she was in more pain than she'd ever felt before--which was saying something given the last three missions--and then...nothing.  How long the nothing lasted she wasn't sure.  Time was the last thing she was thinking about because instead of being a nice, comfortable fall day it was suddenly ridiculously hot.  There were also guys wearing what looked like togas standing around her where she lay semi-face down on the ground.  And they were yelling at her in....Latin?

Oh shit.

"Um...hi."

Tina suddenly wished she'd been paying closer attention reading that book on Ancient Rome.  Or that she'd managed to finish it.  She made a mental note that if she ever got home, she was buying a Kindle.
