Bab 55: The Gathering Storm
Eventually everyone had got inside where Director Fury was waiting for them, Fury did not say anything and instead waited for Steve and Bruce to finish looking around. Bruce looked very nervous, even if he hid it decently well, it was clear he was worried about what would happen if Fury decided to not keep his word. Steve on the other hand was clearly impressed by what he was seeing. For some reason or the other he walked up to Fury and handed him ten bucks, more than likely the result of some bet. Harry glanced towards Hill and saw an unhappy expression on her face as she looked between Bruce and Steve, he saw her glance at him but she tried to play it off, Harry decided to ask her about it later.
"Doctor, thank you for coming." Fury said to Bruce as the two shook hands.
"Well...thank you for asking nicely," Bruce replied. "so how long am I staying?"
"Once we get our hands on the tesseract, you're in the wind."
"Okay, and how's that going?" Bruce asked.
"We're sweeping every wirelessly accessible camera on the planet," Coulson answered. "cell phones, laptops, etc. If it's connected to a satellite then it's just another eye and ear for us."
"That's still not going to find them in time." Natasha frowned.
"You need to narrow down your field," Bruce said. "how many spectrometers do you have access to?" He asked.
"How many are there?" Fury asked.
"Call every lab you know," Bruce said. "tell them to put the spectrometers on the roof and have them calibrate them for gamma rays. I'll rough out a tracking algorithm, basic cluster recognition, that way we can at least rule out a few places. Is there somewhere I can work?" Bruce asked.
"Agent Romanoff," Fury called. "can you escort Doctor Banner to his laboratory please?" Natasha nodded before gesturing Bruce to follow her.
"You're going to love it doc," She said as the two walked away. "we got all the toys."
"Really?" Bruce asked. "You have a Commodore 64?"
"Uh...I'm not sure..."
"Oh you're very young." Bruce chuckled.
"Agent Hill," Fury said to Hill once he saw Steve follow Coulson out of the room. "did you tell the council that Barton had been compromised?"
"Was that not procedure?" She raised an eyebrow at him, Fury didn't respond. "Did you tell them who exactly is on your 'response team'?"
"It doesn't appear that I have to," Fury said with a false smile before turning back to Harry. "Mr Potter, I need you on standby."
"I sense that there is something here that you don't really want to talk about." Harry commented as he gestured between Hill and Fury. "Response team? Council? I assume the 'World Security Council', something you want to tell me Fury?" Harry asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Later," Fury sighed. "I promise." He added when Harry looked like he was about to protest.
"Fine," Harry replied. "by the way, what about operation RS-3?" Harry asked.
"I've been working on it," Fury nodded. "however now is not the time for it, as soon as Loki is dealt with for good, we can act on it."
"Fine, call me when I am needed." Harry said before he walked out of the room, he found an abandoned room before he teleported back home, half an hour later Harry got a call. "Yeah?" Harry answered the call.
"You're needed." Fury's voice responded.
.....
In Germany Loki was stood, preaching to a group of people that he had captured, enjoying the looks of fear that they were giving him as he talked. Loki was wearing dressed in black but he had various bits of gold armour on, including a gold helmet with two big horns.
"Not to men like you." An old man said to Loki when Loki told them to kneel, standing up against him, he was the only one as the rest of the crowd had kneeled to Loki, too afraid to do anything.
"There are no men like me." Loki laughed at the very idea.
"There are always men like you." The man glared at him, not backing down.
"Look to your elder people," Loki smiled as he pointed his scepter at the old man. "let him be an example." Loki shot a blue blast at the old man from his scepter, the old man's eyes widened as it shot towards him. He thought it was his end when suddenly Captain America dropped in front of the old man, his shield blocked the blast and sent it back to Loki, knocking him to his feet, Loki looked up to see Captain America standing in front of him. The Captain was wearing a full blue body suit made of Nomex and Kevlar fiber, there was white and red stripes on his midsection, a star on his chest and an 'A' on the blue helmet he wore, the helmet also had white wings drawn on the side. The suit had also came with a red belt plus red gloves and shoes, it was clearly made based off of his old costume from World War 2.
"You know," Cap said as he walked forward as the crowd began running away. "the last time I was in Germany and saw a man standing above everyone else, we ended up disagreeing."
"The soldier, the man out of time." Loki chuckled, speaking in a voice that was somewhere between amused and irritated.
"I'm not the one who is out of time." Cap replied as a jet flew on scene and hovered above them.
"Loki, stand down." Natasha's voice said from the jet's speaker system as a gun came out of the bottom of the jet and threateningly aimed towards Loki. Loki raised his scepter, he was about to fire but somebody took action before he could. That somebody was Grim, who was currently invisible and standing next behind Loki, Grim took his wand into his hand and shot a stunner at Loki's back, but instead of knocking him out it merely pushed him ever so slightly forward.
"Who's there?" Loki said as he turned around, he smirked at the failed attack. "Show yourself coward." A second later Grim became visible, his green eyes locked onto Loki, his cloak ending at the back of his thighs. "Ah, the wizard." Loki's smirk grew bigger. "Yes, Barton's told me about you." Loki said.
