------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I opened a portal to the Antarctica, where I found Captain Marvel walking aimlessly into the nowhere, cursing like a sailor as she did so. "Ready to talk? Or you will try to punch me again?" I said, announcing my presence to her from above.

Hearing my voice, Captain Marvel halted, turning around baring her teeth like a wolf ready to attack its prey. "Try? I got a pretty good hit last time." she hissed.

"While I was saying hi, congratulations, you punched a guy saying hi, want a medal?" I shot back, frowning at her.

"Your tears would be enough, I need no medal." Captain Marvel sneered, her eyes on me as she did so. Her fists glowing in a dim yet threatening amber color, letting me know she was getting ready to fight.

"Look, I don't like you, the punch pretty much sealed that. But, I know something you don't, something you want to know, and need to know, like why are you having those dreams, about that person." I stated, my eyes cold as I stare at her. "I also have the power to trap you here, forever if need be, so how about we have a civilized talk."

Captain Marvel tensed, as if weighing her options. "We can talk." she said after a few seconds of consideration, her mouth forming a thin line as she did so.

"Good." I nodded.

Now quests gave stats? Well, that's new. Though I am worried about the crazy night reward. "Ok, I'll start the only way I know, from the beginning, your name is not Vers, is Carol Denvers." I chuckled, realizing something. "Den-vers, see what the Kree did there?"

Carol stared at me, her gaze unreadable, for a moment I even thought she was about to attack me, jump at me, ready to break my spine Bane style, but she did not, instead she looked at me in the eye, and commanded. "Speak." 

And so I did, after all, there were commands I had no problem following.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

[Nick Fury POV]

Being friends with Alex meant you were bound to do weird shit, the motherfucker was crazy, but boy was he efficient, so I was glad to assist him, after all, he brought the results I wanted, and was careful enough not to leave any trails that could implicate him in anything.

Finding information about Carol Denvers, easy enough, finding her best friend, easy as well.

"Why am I here?" Maria Rambeau asked.

"A colleague of mine needs you, Ms. Rambeau." I replied, as I dialed to call Alex.

"That doesn't answer anything. All I know is that you basically kidnapped me because a man I don't know, asked for me. Which is seriously troubling." Maria said, staring at me.

"It has something to do with Carol Denvers, who according to our records was close friends with you." I replied, cursing Alex for not answering his motherfuckering phone. I bought the bastard a satellite phone just for this shit, and he still doesn't answer.

"Carol died a long time ago." Maria hissed, her eyes telling me enough.

"That's what her file said, but then again, when was anything according to file." I replied, showing her the pic the cameras of Radio Shack had caught. "Does she look like your friend?"

Maria stared at the pic, her eyes going wide. "Impossible…" she mumbled.

"Meh, improbable maybe. But impossible? In the world we live in? Haha, no." I replied, calling Alex again, that bitch was about to get a slap, nobody ghosts Nick Motherfucking Fury.

"Sir, do we even know where he is?" Coulson asked, god Alex was right, Coulson was invisible at times.

"Oh god, I had forgotten all about you." I chuckled. "Yes we know, he is talking with a woman in the Antarctica."

"Is that woman… carol?" Maria asked, not daring to hope.

"Chances are, she is. Otherwise, why would Alex ask for you?" I replied.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

[Alex Walker POV]

Our conversation started pretty civilized, but soon turned into a brawl. Let's just say she didn't agree or believe some of the stuff I had shared with her, and was now trying to… well, kill me?

"You think I will believe that?" Carol hissed, punching me in the face, as I whipped the bitch to an iceberg with a magical whip.

"If only you could wait, you would see I am telling the truth!" I shot back.

"You want me to believe I… that all my life was a lie?" Carol asked, her voice sounding tired.

"Not all of it, just the last decade." I replied.

"What proof do you even have?!" Carol growled.

"If you let me answer my phone, I can get you that proof!" I growled back.

"You have thirty seconds!" Carol roared.

"Eat a dick!" I roared back, calling Fury, who answered immediately.

"Finally, bitch! I have been--" Before he could finish that sentence, I cut him off.

"Fury, I do not have the time. Do you have what I asked for?!" If he didn't I was about to punch Carol amnesic, fuck the quest.

"I do." Fury replied.

"Good, then buckle up."

"Buckle up for whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?" Why did he scream like a little girl? Well, I opened a portal in front of his car, and well… he went right through it, and now was falling into an iceberg. Of course before he did, I stopped the car with my telekinesis. 

"Is that your proof?" Carol said, glaring at me.

"It is." I replied as dryly as possible.

Slamming the door of his car open, Fury came out, as white as the Antarctica itself. "You… crazy… bitch!"

"Enough about that, where are the files, and Maria Rambeau?" I asked, only to hear a woman mutter.

"Carol…"

[Yon-Rogg POV]

Vers was not replying, and in her mind there were already doubts about our people. Doubts the Skrull had reawoken within her, with their mind probing machines, releasing dreams and memories into her head that should have never been released to begin with.

She was our greatest weapon, our nuclear deterrent, our key to conquest, and now she was in doubt.

Our mission was clear now. We needed to retrieve her from Earth, and connect her to the Supreme Intelligence for reconditioning. 

Or kill her, both paths were okay. For if we couldn't have her, no one would.

"The Supreme Intelligence summons you." 

I turned around to see a soldier standing at the door with the summons of our great leader. "Understood." I replied, for whatever the supreme intelligence wanted, I would provide.

Walking out of my station, on my way to the supreme intelligence, I started to contemplate about what path I would actually have to take, killing Vers would certainly prove to be difficult, and wasteful, but if it was what the Kree empire needed, then I would.

But, without her. We had no weapon against the Mad Titan. So and all and all, it was a complicated affair altogether.

Sighing, I opened the door to the Supreme Intelligence and connected myself to the matrix.

"Yon-Rogg…" The Supreme Intelligence said, appearing as the person I admired and loved the most, me. "You lost her."

"She will return, doubts she might have, but… I trust in our training. I trust she will believe us, over those inferior beings called humans." I replied, if not, she would die.

"Naive, as always, Yon-Rogg." The Supreme Intelligence sighed. "Humans are emotional beings, fragile creatures, weak… but is that weakness that will make her our enemy, she will believe, and she will come to us, as our enemy."

"Then, I will kill her." I declared, which made the Supreme Intelligence laugh.

"No, we need her alive, for now. We need to extract the source of her power, once that is done, once we successfully extract the core from her, then we will kill her." The Supreme Intelligence said. 

"Understood." I nodded.

"Good, now go… and bring me the girl." 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Carol Denvers POV]

Years living a lie, years serving what Alex described as an authoritarian regime whose sole objective was conquering the known universe, for years I thought I was fighting on the right side of this war, but in reality, I was nothing but a fool, being used by others.

"So, now what?" Fury inquired.

"I don't know." I replied, for I really didn't know what to do right now. Well, I did, but I just didn't want to say it out loud, not yet.

"So where is the guy that almost gave me a heart attack?" Maria asked, looking at Fury.

After showing me all the proof I needed to believe him, he teleported us to Maria's house, and left, no one knew where he was, or what he was doing, which had us on edge.

"Don't look at me, that guy is impossible to keep tabs on." Fury chuckled. "But wherever he is, he is planning something."

"How did he know about me though?" I asked, getting Fury's and Maria's attention. "I mean, I remember you Maria, I remember Mar Vell, but… him, I don't."

"I don't know him either." Maria added.

"I doubt you girls knew him." Fury replied. "He is a mystery, one that happens to work with us, but all I know about him, is at best on a surface level, he has no prints on this planet, no documents connected to him, what he has, what little paper trail he has, is because of me. But in truth, he is a ghost by human standards in terms of information."

"Maybe he's an alien?" I offered, I mean, humans didn't have power according to Kree files, then again, I had powers, so perhaps he was like me? An enhanced individual.

"Hmm, it is a possibility. But, I highly doubt that's the case." Fury replied, opening a can of pepsi from Maria's fridge.

"Well, as long as he's an ally, nothing to worry about right?" I chuckled.

"He is more than an ally, he is earth's mightiest hero but that's just my opinion." Fury chuckled.

Before I could ask Fury to elaborate on that, the bell on Maria's house rang.

"Get ready." I said, ready to break some bones if need be.

"Calm down, lantern girl." Fury chuckled, seeing my fist glow. "I know who's outside." At this he opened the door, letting in a man with a metal arm come inside. 

"Alex told me you guys needed my help." The unknown man said, looking at everyone around the house, with a look I was all too familiar with, a look soldiers, trained soldiers had. He was assessing who was the biggest threat in the room, and he did so spectacularly, for his eyes eventually locked on me.

"I am your ally." I said with a smile, ready to fight if he was.

"Alex would beg to differ." The man replied with a cold tone.

"I suppose Alex has his reason, but for now, we are allies." Fury said with a smile. "So for now, don't start anything. James."

"I won't start anything." James replied, his eyes on me. "But if push comes to shove, I will finish things."

"Don't mind him, he's a little protective of Alex, and Emily." Fury chuckled.

"I owe him my life, it's the least I can do." James replied, without missing a beat.

"He saved mine as well, I think." I replied.

"Brainwash?" James inquired.

"Apparently." I nodded.

"I get the feeling then." James said, his tone getting colder.

"Adorable, but where the fuck is Alex?" Fury asked, getting everyone's attention.

"He said he had something to do, he didn't elaborate on what, and I didn't ask." James replied.

"Ok… I guess we wait then." Fury said.

"Is that a Hello Kitty sticker?" I snorted, pointing at James' metal arm.

"It is, any problem with that?" James challenged with a cold gaze.

"None." I replied, with a small chuckle.

"Emily did that to my gun last week." Fury chuckled. "All agents on district seven were laughing at my ass for it."
