Chapter 22: Fury III
Natasha came out of her stupor as she moved to mount the jet.
"The hell is the steel bird?" one of the demons muttered.
"Probably what puny humans use to fly around..." the other replied.
"Shut the hell up before I shove you both in a donkey ass," Dave snapped, finally tired of the constant chatter between the two demons.
'Now I understand why Dante demanded their silence as a condition to accept them,' Dave thought, glancing at the anklets on Natasha's hands. They fell silent upon hearing his warning.
Natasha looked down at her wrists and then back at Dave. "Thank you," she said softly, deciding she'd deal with it once she returned to S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Y'know, Dave did mention that Trish is a devil," Clint said, as Maria focused on the anklets.
"I've heard that," Fury nodded, once again thinking, 'Maybe demons or devils are just aliens. Those Skrulls do seem like the doppelgangers from myths.' He made a mental note to label Trish as a potential alien.
