Capítulo 54: Helicarrier
Bruce Banner sat on a jet with Agent Romanoff as they flew to the Shield hellicarrier, the only other person inside the jet was the pilot. 'Grim', as he was apparently called, had told Agent Romanoff that he would be making his own way back. That had made Bruce a bit curious but he decided not to think too much about that as he was already focusing on other things.
For example the tesseract, he was reading the information that Agent Romanoff had given him about it, it looked really interesting and Bruce was in fact very tempted to ask Nick Fury if he could study it after they found it, but he knew that that was unlikely. Bruce was really hoping that Fury would keep his word and let him go, because he really did not want to see what would happen if Fury suddenly decided to change his mind about putting the Hulk in a cage. Though Grim said he wouldn't do that, but then that brought up the problem of how much he he would be willing to put his faith in the hands of a man who goes by 'Grim'.
"I'm sorry about him by the way." Natasha commented, earning Bruce's attention, he looked up from the information he was reading about the tesseract and looked at her.
"I beg your pardon?" Bruce gave her a questioning look.
"Grim," Natasha said. "I hope he didn't bother you too much. He didn't mean anything bad, he is...just not really good around new people."
"I think the other guy might have had an affect on him." Bruce said in a dry voice.
"Without a doubt," Natasha replied. not even bothering to deny that Harry was thinking about the Hulk. "Grim's an enhanced like you, but he is also a former soldier who had fought plenty of other enhanced individual. He was testing you."
"Testing me?" Bruce frowned. "You mean my self-control?" Bruce asked.
"Exactly," Natasha nodded. "it was a test. How you reacted would decide how he would react, if you were easily provoked then he would probably be keeping a closer eye on you, if it makes you feel better then it's not really a personal thing, plus I think you passed." She finished with a small smile.
"Joy," Bruce rolled his eyes. "how strong is this guy supposed to be? You said he is an enhanced, what are his powers?"
"You'll have to ask him that," Natasha said with an apologetic voice. "I'm not really permitted to tell you. However, if you want my honest opinion, then I think that he is a good man underneath all the shadows and threats. Fury won't do anything to you, especially not with Grim making sure you're treated right."
Bruce looked like he really did not believe her, even if it was clear that he wanted to.

Natasha was on the hellicarrier, waiting for the second jet to arrive with Steve Rogers, AKA Captain America, and surprisingly Coulson was the one on the jet with him. Which to be honest wasn't that surprising since Coulson was a high level agent and a great friend of Nick Fury's, the question on most people's mind was did Fury place Coulson there for any reason beyond knowing that Coulson was a big Captain America fan? Natasha was brought out of her thoughts when the jet did finally arrive and Coulson exited along with Steve who was wearing some clothing that looked rather old fashioned clothing when compared to what most people that looked his age would wear.
"Agent Romanoff." Phil Coulson said in greeting upon seeing her. "Captain Rogers" He gestured with his head to Steve. "Captain Rogers, meet Agent Romanoff."
"Ma'am." Steve nodded to her.
"A pleasure." Natasha smiled at them both before turning to Coulson, she was about to speak when another voice suddenly spoke.
"They need you on the bridge," Harry said to Coulson as he walked up to the group. "they are about to start the face trace." Harry added in the form of an explanation.
"Fine, I will see you all there." Coulson said as he walked away.
"Harry." Steve nodded to Harry as he extended his hand.
"Steve." Harry nodded back as the two shook hands. "You look better."
"Feeling better," Steve replied. "still just trying to get used to everything."
"If I can I let you in on a secret, I am still trying to get used to everything.".
"It was quite the buzz around here, finding you in the ice" Natasha said to Steve as the trio began walking. "thought Coulson was going to swoon." Natasha added, earning a snort from Harry. "Did he ask you to sign his Captain America trading cards yet?"
"Trading cards?" Steve asked, he looked partly amused and partly as if he was wondering if those cards actually existed.
"They're vintage," Natasha said with a small smile. "he's very proud."
"You know, if you sign a photo for him he will probably sleep with it, if he doesn't frame it and place it above his bed." Harry said.
"Hey, be nice." Natasha said, though the smile was still on her face. "Coulson's just a big fan, at least he knows when to be professional."
"I suppose." Harry conceded, in that regard Coulson was a lot better than most of Harry's old fans.
"Doctor Banner." Steve said as he noticed Doctor Banner who was dressed like a teacher, he was looking very nervous as he looked around in all directions and was trying not to get in anyone's way.
"Oh yeah, hello." Bruce said as Steve shook his hand. "they told me you were coming." Bruce added.
"Word is you can find the cube?" Steve asked in a questioning voice.
"Is that the only word on me?" Bruce asked knowingly.
"It's the only word I care about." Steve said in an honest voice.
"And who are you?" Bruce asked Harry.
"Harry Potter." Harry said as he offered Bruce a hand, Bruce shook it and nodded in greeting.
"And what is it that you do?"
"Mr Potter is simply here to provide assistance if it's required." Natasha said.
"And what kind of assistance does he provide? If you don't mind me asking," Steve asked in a curious voice. "I know you're an ex-soldier," He said to Harry. "what exactly is it that you do?"
"A lot of things," Harry replied. "I..."
"Boy's you might want to step inside" Natasha said, interrupting whatever lie or half-truth that was about to come out of Harry's mouth. "it's about to get hard to breath." She nodded at Harry who gave a slight nod back in appreciation for bringing the attention off of himself.
"What is this thing?" Banner asked as he followed Steve towards the edge of the hellicarrier.
"Is this a submarine?" Steve asked as he look over.
"Really?" Bruce couldn't help but blurt out. "They want me in a submerged, pressurized metal container?" He said in a disbelieving tone. Any further words were cut off when Bruce and Steve saw something big rising out of the water, eventually they saw that it was a massive turbine. Soon the whole ship began to rise, the waters were batted away as air slapped against Bruce and Steve. "Oh no, this is much worse."
