I create four more spatial copies of myself to take care of the mess and calm the animals while I teleport for the entrance to welcome our newest "intruder".
I was hoping that at the reception was a giant blond guy with his magic hammer. However, in the place I found a woman with dark skin, white hair and a white cloak like the rest of her clothes. Accessing the Shield database ...
-Oh! Storm, what a surprise. What are you doing here? - I question with surprise. I had never met an X-man before, especially their leader!
-I see you already know me. So let's skip the introductions. - Her voice is calm, but still frightening. Are all X-man like that?
-I'm sorry to tell you that my purpose here probably won't please you. -And her voice gets even scarier when she says things like that. My copies just tidied up the place, but better let them taking care of the animals, just in case something go wrong. The title of this chapter is giving me bad presents.
-I am at your service if your request does not include any type of violence.- I try to respond as politely as my system allows me.
-If that's the case, everything is easier. I'm glad you want to cooperate. Please give me the space jewel. - I knew it was something like that. Sometimes I wonder if Mr. Stark was aware of the problem that he was giving to me when he put these restrictions on me.
-I'm sorry, but, that's not possible. The jewel of space is my source of energy, without it, I cannot operate properly and will be unable to fulfill the role I was created for. -I know that won't be enough to convince her, but it doesn't hurt to try, right? Of all the simulations I did in my head, this is the one where I have the best chance of coming out with all the pieces. Unfortunately, the Shield files I have, are not enough for me to come up with an efficient plan. For now, my priority is to roll it up for as long as I can while I send my copies to keep the animals safe.
-Are you a smart girl. You should already know that no country has or is willing to accept your contract. At least not for now, the world is not ready to receive you. Stark is a visionary, but sometimes he seems to forget that we are still in the present and not in the future. Because of his little worldwide commotion, a lot of bad things will come after you. As protectors of this world, we cannot let the stone fall into the wrong hands. -I patiently listen to all her speech. Okay, I was using the time to draw up a good plan of action. The good news is, I made it. There are 80% success rates, a good number. Now it's time to put it into action.
-Tony also prescribed many protocols for me to protect the gem of space. You can be sure that in my hands it will be safe. My task is to serve humanity and protect the jewel and my own existence. I am willing to fulfill this task even if it means going against the most powerful heroes on earth. If the land is not ready to accept me, I will wait until it is ready. Until then, don't try to find me, that's a warning.
