IM/DC Chapter 20
🕑 Added 2024-03-26 04:41:18 +0000 UTC“So two years. You’ve let a skrull agent lead SHIELD for two years to gather information.”
Nick looked at Hawkeye who just asked an obvious question. The second Nick stopped the Avengers initiative he should have known he was a fake. I met him twice and I knew he wasn’t the real Fury. I guess you just don’t think your boss can be a secret alien doubleagent.
“Yes, and the jizzard wizard here killing the skrull me let them know we’re on to them.” I almost yell. “No fucking way the jizzard wizard be my hero name. Don’t even joke about that until I get my hero name or I go to Times square and yell out your social security number.”
“You don’t ha-.” I cut him off. “299-45-” “Alright then no to jizzard wizard but you’ll owe me one.” I let him know. “If you decide to hire me.” He pulled at a box from his pocket before saying. “You’re already hired. I’ll grab your credit card once I get this cigar lit.” He flicked a classic zippo lighter and puffed a quarter of a stogie in one go before breathing out a huge smoke cloud.
I couldn’t help but smile when Nick smoked again. He didn’t because of people petitioning the removal of most smoking and they wouldn’t let him in the marvel movies. It was a huge part of his character in the classics and it just suited him. After the war a large number of people started smoking again to cope so it sort of rolled back the outcries a little.
“You don’t mind if I smoke in here?” He asked, having almost finished his cigar. “Not at all but.” I floated a little candy dish over to him. “Can you not ash on my floor please, it's new. I don’t want it to lose that new skrull blood smell.”
Unceremoniously Black Widow entered the house. Nick pulled out my credit card and handed it over. We all sat back down and I was pretty much done with the day. I asked. “Why am I still here?” Nick ashed his cigar and waved Natasha at my fridge. She grabbed two beers before he said to grab the rest of the six pack.
“What do you mean? You’re a big part of this. You met the skrull twice and knew it wasn’t me even though you never met me. I guess you’ve got a good sniffer for this kind of shit so figure it as your job interview for SHIELD.” I laugh internally. Even now he’s trying to pinch pennies.
“I want a million now to help with this. I also want to be just a consultant. I’m too busy to be sent on missions. I’ll make a bunch of magical equipment and tell your guys how to make and use it then maybe steal some for myself for protection. I mean you can’t have the head of your magical department running around unarmed right?”
“The million we can do but I also want you to go over that updated list you were talking about with skroll me. I need information on who to poach for the avenger’s initiative.” I rolled it around in my head.
“You should call in every single member of SHIELD and have them cut themselves in front of you while having a telepath read their memories when you mention HYDRA. If all else fails I think my method would work for weeding out the mind controlled HYDRA agents at least. If you honestly want to cripple HYDRA you should cut off their money sources and slander them.”
“What do you mean by that?” Natasha asked as she popped the can of beer open. I explain more. “Well HYDRA is a german organization tied to Hitler. Do you know who joins HYDRA? People who don’t know shit about HYDRA. You publicly link them to the nazi party and the people who would go in for the HYDRA interview and get brainwashed now might call and report their recruitment agency. Also getting a bill passed that any businesses linked with supporting HYDRA will have their assets seized will stop most of the income.”
I think about it more. “Actually putting your two enemies against each other should be the way to go. They both probably know about each other. If you plant some false evidence that HYDRA was the one who killed their man and pretend like you’re a secret HYDRA they might end up fighting each other. We can also kill Alexander Pierce and blame it on the skrull so they start fighting each other.”
Nick stopped drinking beer mid gulp when I said the last part. I mentioned. “Oh yea Alexander Pierce is like ninety percent HYDRA. Also one of the presidential candidates and most top brass in the military and branches of government… Most large companies have HYDRA agents as CEO’s… You guys really fucked up not squashing them like bugs in WW2.”
