"5 billion?"
"No deal!"
"7 billion?"
"No deal!"
"9 billion?"
"No deal!"
Seeing Coulson's hopeless expression, Jay, though a little pleased internally, shook his head. It seemed they didn't fully trust him despite his knowledge of past events. He thought about how to reach a compromise.
"5 billion up front and 5 billion after the incident?"
Coulson hesitated a bit before nodding in agreement. He could only accept his fate. He couldn't be too hard on Jay, who wondered what Jay could do when threatened. Making an enemy out of someone with his strength would be a disadvantage for SHIELD.
"So, what do you want to know?"
"Everything you can tell me."
Jay thought for a moment, choosing some pieces of information before starting with Thor.
"Well, where should I start? Hmm, about a thousand years ago, Earth was invaded by the Frost Giants from Jotunheim..."
Coulson quickly took note of the important terms and bits of information.
'Frost Giants, Jotunheim, invade...'
"...but they were stopped by the Allfather Odin Borson of Asgard. He is also the protector of the Nine Realms, which include our Earth, or Midgard to them."
Jay paused to leisurely drink his coffee, much to Coulson's annoyance, before continuing.
"And recently, during his crowning as king of Asgard, Thor was attacked by the Frost Giants who crashed the party. In retaliation, Thor attacked them, causing Odin to be enraged by his son waging war and thus decided to banish Thor to New Mexico."
Jay finished and let Coulson digest all the new information. The details about Odin, Thor, and the Frost Giants had turned Coulson's worldview upside down. After a moment, he looked up at Jay with a serious expression.
"Is... Is what you said true?"
"You'll find out soon enough, Agent Coulson. I do advise you to read up more on Norse mythology, though."
Jay said, indifferent to Coulson's nervous look, and began to consider what to do with his money.
'Should I get something new or more bodyguards?'
However, before he could think further, a call rang out from Coulson's phone. Picking it up, Fury's voice boomed.
"Coulson, I thought you had the Hulk under surveillance?!"
Coulson's face turned puzzled. He hurriedly ran out of the room to check on Banner's room.
"He's still here, sir?"
"If he's there, then what am I seeing wrecking everything on the streets of Harlem?!"
Coulson rushed to the command room and saw the scene on the large screen. A giant yellow humanoid monster was destroying everything in its path. Deployed troops used machine guns to hold it back, but the monster shrugged off the bullets and continued rampaging. It grabbed a nearby car and threw it at the firing troops. It then charged forward, tossing several soldiers like ragdolls and let out a beastly roar.
"Where are you, Hulk?! Come out and face me, you coward!!!"
The monster continued its path of destruction. Coulson then checked the camera in Banner's room, seeing him sitting inside, drinking water and looking a bit impatient. Coulson wanted to shout in frustration.
'Where did this other Hulk come from?!?'
Thinking hard about how to handle the situation, he turned to look at Jay and Charlotte, who had tagged along when he ran out of the room. Seeing Coulson's pleading eyes, Jay shrugged and smiled.
"Why are you looking at me? He's looking for the Hulk. What do you want me to do, rip off my shirt and take a dip in a barrel of green paint?"
Coulson: "..."
Coulson wanted to say more but, given the emergency, had no choice but to run off to ask Dr. Banner for help.
Charlotte, looking at the screen, gripped Jay's hand and hesitated to speak. Seeing this, Jay sighed and held her hand gently.
"If you want me to go, I will, you know?"
Charlotte, still somewhat hesitant due to the danger, looked at him. Jay, as if reading her mind, scoffed slightly.
"Hmp, believe in me a little, will you? I'll show you myself!"
He then hugged her and teleported with a shadow, much to her surprise and mix of relief and joy.
In a chopper hovering over Harlem, a man in military attire held a tablet showing the yellow monster, code-named by the troops as Abomination, wreaking havoc in the city, unhindered by the countless troops firing at him.
The more General Ross looked at the monster, the uglier his face grew. Stomping his feet in frustration, he recalled how Emil Blonsky, after being injected with Hulk gamma-infected blood, had transformed into the monster now rampaging in Harlem. Ross had lost the Hulk and Jay to SHIELD and turned to investigate what had attracted Banner to take such a risk.
What he found was a man with a high level of understanding of the Hulk and his transformation. This man was likely the one who understood the Hulk best, maybe even more than Banner himself. Ross had sent Blonsky to capture him to help with his super soldier plans.
All seemed good until the team entered and apprehended the man. Blonsky, through the camera, shocked everyone by suddenly opening fire on his teammates and killing everyone except the scientists. He then forced the scientists to inject him with Hulk gamma-infected blood.
Under the threat of guns, the scientists reluctantly complied. With the administration of Hulk blood, Blonsky, who had already been injected with the super soldier serum, began to mutate, growing to Hulk's size with additional bone spurs on his spine, arms, and legs.
After killing the scientists, he proceeded to test his strength and rampage to attract the Hulk's attention, hoping for a fight.
Watching Blonsky turn into a monster, killing innocent people and troops sent to stop him, Ross felt like someone had stabbed him with a knife and twisted it like a blender.
He picked up his phone and, as soon as the other side picked up, yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Fury, where the hell is your reinforcement?!"
Fury, sitting in his office with a cold expression, calmly responded.
"Coulson is on the way by Quinjet along with the Hulk."
"What about the other guy? Can he come? Isn't he coming?! He was able to even beat the Hulk!"
Mentioning Jay, Fury's face turned awkward. Unsure of what to say, he decided to push it off.
"He is currently unavailable."
Although Ross knew Fury was avoiding the topic, he had no other option and could only shout "Damn it" before hanging up.
Looking at the situation on the ground, the Abomination was still in a rampage. Suddenly, a red and gold figure appeared in the sky.
On his shoulder, several mini-missiles fired off, hitting Abomination in the face and causing him to take a few steps back from the blast.
Tony, looking at his target being showered with the newly invented mini version of his Jericho missile, had a proud look on his face.
"Seems like big ugly here can't handle the heat."
But as he prepared to launch more missiles to turn the monster into charcoal, a bunch of debris and a huge ball of concrete broke through the smoke screen and flew straight at him.
Tony tried to dodge, and while he avoided most of it, a large piece of concrete hit his arm, causing him to lose balance and crash into a nearby building. Pushing off the rubble, Tony spoke to his suit AI.
"Jarvis, report."
"Armor value has been reduced by 37%, and the left arm blast cannon has been partially destroyed. The back thruster has been slightly damaged, sir."
"Well, at least we have his attention."
As he looked at the roaring Abomination, Tony felt a chill down his spine. One hit and his armor was almost half destroyed.
Lucky for him, while he was busy thinking about how to deal with the charging Abomination, a big green figure dropped from the sky and slammed Abomination to the ground.
The Hulk had arrived!
