10 A women's intuition

Triskelion base, SHIELD Headquarters, Washington DC.

The one-eyed director Nick Fury wearing his signature black trench coat and black eye patch, was looking at the virtual screen in front of him. The video on screen was of Arthur fighting with John. Nick Fury pressed the remote to pause the video and then held the documents about Arthur.

There was a 'list' at SHIELD. This list recorded most people who have super powers. Of course, it was also a monitoring list. After Arthur appeared, his information was already entered in to the list.

"Come in, Agent Hill."

A knock on door sounded and a woman came in, Maria Hill. SHIELD Level 9 Agent, one of the commander's of SHIELD at Helicarrier and also Nick Fury's assistant.

"What is the progress of the 'plan'?" Nick Fury asked.

"Everything is going according to the steps, it shouldn't take too long to assemble them." Maria Hill hesitated for a moment but still asked: "You have really decided? I think this is a very risky move."

"How are the candidates?" Nick Fury did not

answer her, but continued to ask.

Mary Hill knowing that his decisions won't change, handed over the documents she brought with her.

Nick Fury opened it and looked at them.

There were several people's records on it.

Melinda May, nickname 'The Cavalry'.

Leo Fitz, a high-tech weapons expert and scientist.

Jemma Simmons, an biological expert.

Grant Ward, a Master Combatant and a Level 7 Agent.

And the last person was Skye, a super hacker and a member of the Rising tide organization!

Looking at the list, Nick Fury hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Add another name, Arthur."

"But..."

Maria Hill's words had not even been finished yet and Nick Fury waved his hands and interrupted: "His ability is a bit special and unseen till now and his identity is also very mysterious. It's just that his intentions are not known. It will be easy for us to judge him if he joins the team. What's more, he is now with Skye, I'm afraid it will not be possible to separate them. So just put his name on the list, then give the list to 'him' and let him handle this."

"Yes Sir."

...

"She seems to be very familiar with you?" Skye asked suddenly.

Arthur said dumbly: "I thought you would ask about what happened. I didn't expect you to ask this first."

"A woman's intuition is very accurate. I noticed the look in her eyes when she was talking with you." Skye said.

"I think it was an alert and watchful look in her eye. She came to invite us to SHIELD, but I don't think they invited us for a friendly chat, so I refused. But she knows who you are working for." Arthur explained. "But it doesn't seem to be a big problem, so you can ignore it for now. You just need to know, no matter what, if someone wants to deal with you, they must step on my dead body. Because you are my girlfriend!"

"Yes I Know, dear." Skyee smiled sweetly, and the little jealousy she was feeling disappeared. "But dear, you are so amazing. Pyro John was a powerfull guy. I didn't expect him to not even be your opponent, and… you absorbed his ability? So, can you control fire now?"

"Of course, if you want to, I will show you some fireworks at night." Arthur said with a smile.

"Okay then" Skye said with anticipation.

As a man with the ambition for a large harem, communication and eloquent speaking is the most basic requirement.

So at night, Arthur took Skye to the roof of a building, letting her enjoy very dazzling fireworks, especially watching the flame manipulation ability write 'I love you, Skye! ' in the night sky, Skye definitely felt that this was perhaps the happiest time of her life.

"Dear, am I more pretty or Black Widow?" Lying in Arthur's arms, Skye suddenly asked. Arthur couldn't help but smile. It seems that all women in love are the same, even Skye is not an exception. He didn't answer, just lifted her chin and let her look up to his face, then kissed her down fiercely.

After almost a dozen or so minutes, the two lovers separated.

Skye looked at Arthur with a bewitched look, leaning hard on him, even wanting to be able to blend the two of them into one!

"Its cold out here, let's go back."

Arthur whispered.

"Okay, but you have to carry me." Skye said in a spoiled manner.

"It's my honor, princess."

Arthur picked up Skye in a princess carry and led themselves away.

Back in the car, Skye thought that Arthur might do something more physical with this Romantic atmosphere. Who knows why Arthur just put her down very gently.

"You… don't you want to do anything?" Skye whispered.

Arthur said with a smile : "Of course I really want to, very very much, you have to know that every day with you is a test of my willpower for me, but… I don't think we should do it here. Some things should be made memorable and done in a place befitting of such, so naturally we want to leave the best memories!"

"Dear, you are so kind to me, I… I love you!"

Skye muttered, and at this moment she decided that she would have no more reservations about Arthur and trust him completely.

"Dear, actually, I have a secret that I have never told you, I… I didn't mean to hide it from you, but I don't know whether to say or not, because this may be dangerous for you."

"What is it?" asked Arthur to Skye who was suddenly revealing a secret which he already knew.

"Actually, the reason why I become a hacker and leart those techniques was to be able to investigate my life. I want to know who my parents are. The best place to investigate about this was SHIELD. I joined the Rising tide organization which is against SHIELD, on one hand because I feel it is not fair to conceal so many things from public who have a right to know, and on the other hand, I hope to join SHIELD so I may have an easier access about my parents information." Skye said slowly: "Just… if I join SHIELD, you ..."

"I will also join." Arthur said without the slightest hesitation: "Where you are going, I will also follow you there. Not to mention, you don't have to worry about how SHIELD will treat me. Maybe they even want me to join so that can help them monitor me more easily!"

"But..."

"No, you don't have to think that I will be embarrassed due just rejecting their offer, or it may be dangerous for me. In fact, it is not so bad to join SHIELD. Anyway, there is nothing to do now for me, so acting as a Superhero is also not that bad to experience."

Arthur then said to her with a firm tone. "Okay then, If there is a chance, I will also join SHIELD with you."

"Thank you!" Skye said softly.

"Stupid, sleep now."

Glancing gently on Skye's face Arthur smiled, not just for his own purposes, even for Skye , Arthur was willing to join SHIELD..
