Capítulo 7: Chapter 6
In the dimly lit room of the SHIELD base, the holographic displays flickered with streams of data, casting an eerie glow over the faces of the agents at work. At the center of this organized chaos stood Nick Fury, his presence commanding and intense.
Fury, a tall man with a dark complexion, wore his signature black trench coat and eyepatch, which only added to his formidable presence. His one good eye, sharp and calculating, focused intently on the series of blurry images projected before him. The lines on his face, marked by years of experience and countless battles, deepened as he scrutinized the footage.
"Sir, these are the best we could get," Agent Maria Hill said, her tone professional yet tinged with frustration. She stood beside Fury, her posture straight and alert. Hill's short, dark brown hair framed her face, and her piercing blue eyes reflected her sharp intellect and dedication. She wore the standard SHIELD tactical uniform, emphasizing her athletic build and readiness for action.
Fury grunted, his eyes fixed on the images without faltering. "Hill, this guy's as elusive as they come. And he's got some serious firepower."
He waved a hand, and the holographic display shifted to show footage of Decade's fight with Stane. Despite the blurry quality, it was clear that this newcomer had extraordinary abilities. Fury watched as Decade dodged Stane's attacks with uncanny precision, countering with energy blasts and swift strikes.
"Have we got any intel on this 'Kamen Rider Decade'?" Fury asked, his voice low and gravelly.
Hill shook her head, her frustration evident. "Nothing, sir. No fingerprints, no face recognition, no background. The armor prevents any clear identification. It's like he doesn't exist. We've combed through every database, every surveillance feed, and we've got nothing."
Fury leaned back, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "This is the first time we've come across any intel on him. A person with that kind of power and no trail... I don't like it. We need to find out who he is and what he wants."
"Every lead we've followed has gone cold," Hill continued. "No known associates, no pattern to his appearances. He's a complete enigma."
The display shifted again, showing the aftermath of the battle. The Iron Monger lay in ruins, and Tatsuya, or Decade, was nowhere to be seen. The footage cut to Tony Stark, barely holding himself together, and Pepper Potts, visibly shaken but safe. Fury sighed.
"At least Stark's still alive," he muttered. "We owe this Decade a debt, but I want eyes on him. If he shows up again, I want to know about it immediately."
"Understood, sir," Hill said, nodding.
Fury turned away from the display, his mind already working on contingency plans. He had seen many extraordinary things in his time, but this new player was something different. Something potentially dangerous.
"What about the tech he's using?" Fury asked, almost as an afterthought. "Anything on that?"
"Nothing we can identify," Hill replied. "The armor, the weapons, even his fighting style—none of it matches anything we've seen before. It's advanced, but there's no trace of where it came from or how it works."
Fury's frown deepened. "Keep digging, Hill. I want every piece of information we can get on Kamen Rider Decade. And if he shows up again, I want to be the first to know."
"Yes, sir," Hill responded, determination in her voice.
As Fury walked out of the room, the images of Decade lingered on the screen, a blurred enigma that only deepened the mystery surrounding him. Fury knew one thing for certain: the world was changing, and they needed to be ready for whatever came next.
He paused at the door, turning back to Hill. "Hill, make sure to schedule a meeting with Stark. We need to know everything he does about this Kamen Rider. And if anyone can give us insight into advanced tech, it's him."
Hill nodded, already considering the implications. "Understood, Director."
Fury left the room, the weight of the unknown pressing heavily on his shoulders. The game had changed, and SHIELD would need to adapt quickly to keep up with the new players on the field. As he walked down the corridor, his mind was already strategizing, planning the next moves. The encounter with Kamen Rider Decade was just the beginning, and Fury was determined to uncover the truth behind this enigmatic figure.
…
A day had passed since the chaotic events at Stark Industries, and Tatsuya found himself leaning nonchalantly against the back wall of the packed conference hall. Reporters, their equipment poised and ready, murmured amongst themselves, eagerly awaiting the statements that would unravel the mystery of the previous night. Tatsuya couldn't help but feel a sense of detachment from the buzz of excitement that filled the room.
Colonel James Rhodes, Tony Stark's close confidant, stepped up to the podium. His authoritative presence commanded attention as he delivered the carefully crafted official statement with a calm, measured tone.
Colonel James Rhodes stepped up to the podium, Tony Stark's close friend and spokesperson for the day. "Good morning, everyone. I'm sure you've all received the official statement regarding last night's incident at Stark Industries. There have been reports of a malfunction in a robotic prototype, which resulted in damages. Thankfully, a member of Mr. Stark's personal security team intervened."
As Rhodes continued to read the prepared statement, mentioning Iron Man as Stark's bodyguard, Tatsuya couldn't help but scoff inwardly. He was impressed by SHIELD's ability to concoct such a believable cover story.
"And now, Mr. Stark will provide a statement. There will be no questions, thank you," Rhodes concluded, stepping back as Tony Stark took the stage.
Tatsuya's thoughts drifted. He smirked at the polished narrative SHIELD had concocted to explain away the night's chaos. It was impressive, he had to admit, how effortlessly they could mold the truth to fit their needs.
Tony Stark himself took the stage, his charisma and charm in full display. Adjusting his notes with a casual flick of his hand, Tony addressed the gathered press with a mixture of wit and calculated composure.
"Uh, been a while since I was in front of you all," Tony quipped, drawing a light chuckle from the audience. Tatsuya observed Tony's ease with a hint of admiration. The man knew how to work a crowd.
"There's been talk that I had something to do with the freeway and parking lot drama," Tony began, trying to steer the conversation back on course.
A blonde-haired female reporter interrupted, "I'm sorry, Mr. Stark, but do you honestly expect us to believe it was a bodyguard in a suit that conveniently appeared, despite—"
"I know it's confusing," Tony interjected smoothly. "It's one thing to question the official story, and another to make wild accusations or insinuate that I'm a superhero."
Tatsuya couldn't help but smirk at Tony's banter. Despite the gravity of the situation, Tony maintained his trademark wit.
"I never said you were a superhero," the reporter clarified.
"Good, because that would be outlandish and fantastic," Tony quipped, psyching himself up. "I'm just not the hero type. Clearly, with this laundry list of character defects, all the mistakes I've made. Largely public."
Tatsuya observed Rhodes whispering something to Tony, prompting him to hold up his note card again.
"The truth is…" Tony paused, his gaze sweeping over the expectant faces of the reporters. Tatsuya sensed the weight of Tony's next words, the room holding its breath.
"I am Iron Man."
The declaration hung in the air, a bold proclamation that shifted the atmosphere in the room. Flashbulbs popped incessantly as reporters scrambled to capture every moment of Tony Stark's revelation. Amidst the frenzy, Tatsuya stood back, his expression unreadable yet tinged with a hint of amusement and respect for Tony's audacity.
"That guy actually did it," Tatsuya thought to himself, acknowledging Tony's unapologetic embrace of his alter ego and the ripple effect it would undoubtedly have on the world.
