CHAPTER 2

3 days later, Moscow, Russia.

In a hotel room Liam and Natasha were talking about their next mission.

"You need to infiltrate the gala and let them detect and catch you. When they take you in for questioning, I'll be around the whole time so don't worry" Liam said with a smile.

"You say that as if they could do anything to me" Natasha said laughing.

As they continued to discuss their mission, Liam heard a familiar but distant sound.

…

Somewhere in the U.S. in one of SHIELD's secret bases. Nick Fury and Hawkeye were watching as the tesseract was going out of control, suddenly it emitted a bluish light that opened a portal and out of it came Loki.

…

Back to Liam.

Beep.

[Defeat Loki and his army of Chitauri.]

[Rewards]

- Defeat Loki: 500 Stat Points

- Defeat 1000 Chitauri: 100 stat points

- Defeat 4000 Chitauri: 400 stat points

- Completing all of the above requests will regenerate any imperfections in Natasha Romanoff's body.

Reading the rewards, Liam's eyes widened as if he saw what he wanted most in the world, which was to be able to heal Natasha.

'Finally, the system gave me something to heal her. Too bad if it was just defeating Loki I could go and defeat him right away, but I have to let the portal open and let the Chitauri in.' (Liam)

While Liam debated about the system mission. Natasha was already getting ready to leave for the gala.

"Liam what are you doing stunned we have to go" Natasha said with a look of bewilderment.

Liam snapped out of his euphoric state and looked at Natasha with an end-to-end grin that unnerved the woman even more.

"What are you smiling like that for?" Natasha asked.

"Nothing, nothing, let's go we're late" Liam said waving his hands as he walked out of the room.

Natasha didn't speculate anymore and walked out with him.

…

At midnight in an abandoned hangar in Moscow near the railroad tracks, three Russians were interrogating a Russian woman. Liam who was nearby received a call that it was from Captain America Fan #1 and picked up. Liam got a little excited as he was getting started and was closer to healing Natasha.

"What's up Coulson" (Liam).

"It's an emergency Avengers plan is activated" (Coulson).

"I see then where do we have to go?" (Liam)

"I'll go with Tony; you guys go with the beefy one since you're the only one who can give him a fight if he gets out of control" (Coulson).

"That's fine, I don't have a problem with that" (Liam).

"Now I'm sending you the location of where you're going to find him and good luck" Coulson said and cut the call.

Liam put his phone away and came out of his hiding place and started walking to Natasha. He pulled out his pistol with silencer and shot the three Russians in the head.

[A/N: if you were expecting him to beat them with his fists there is no need].

Natasha looked at him puzzled, before she could say anything, Liam spoke.

"We have another mission the Avengers initiative" (Liam).

Hearing that Natasha cleared any complaints in her head and focused.

"We're going with the beefy one, right?" (Natasha)

"Wow how did you guess" said Liam trying to put on a straight face.

With that Natasha snorted and spoke. "Ha, with you here they would send us straight to Asgard if they needed to".

"hahaha that's true, Fury is very shameless when he needs to ask me for things" (Liam).

Finished talking they grabbed all their stuff and left to meet the beefy guy.

[A/N: Banner and the protagonist do not know each other because when he did the Hulk mission, he was too weak to fight Abomination and helped the Hulk behind the scenes].

…

Somewhere in India. Liam and Natasha could be seen in a hut outside a town.

"It seems to have arrived" (Liam).

Just as Liam spoke, a girl entered the hut, walked past him and out the window, and behind her came a black-haired man who at first glance seemed harmless, but inside him lurked one of the strongest creatures on earth.

While Banner thought he had been fooled, and indeed he had. Behind him appeared Liam and Natasha.

"Doctor Banner for someone who wants to avoid stress moved to a not so convenient place" (Natasha).

Bruce turned around and saw two people, a man and a woman.

"Avoiding stress is not the secret" (Bruce).

"And what is yoga?" said Liam laughing.

Natasha frowned and looked at Liam who had stolen her line.

"Very clever we are outside the city and we sure are surrounded by soldiers" said Bruce with a straight face.

"We're alone doctor there's no one else" (Liam).

Bruce looked at them as if he didn't believe them and said "Who are they?"

"Liam Smith and next to me this beautiful woman Natasha Romanoff."

Bruce sized them up and suddenly said "You want to assassinate me? Because that's not convenient for everyone."

"Calm down doctor we are not here to assassinate anyone. We're from SHIELD" (Liam).

"SHIELD eh, how did they find me?" (Bruce)

"We never let you out of our sight doctor and we drove any group with other purposes away from you" (Natasha).

"Why?" (Bruce)

"It looks like Fury trusts you Doctor" (Natasha).

"We need you to come with us" (Liam).

"And if I refuse?"

Liam snorted and threw some documents on the table that said [TOP SECRET].

"That right there is why we are looking for you, nothing else" (Liam).

Bruce looked at the document and took out his lens and inspected it and said "Tesseract."

"Yes, that cube has the potential to destroy the planet and it was stolen. It emits gamma rays too weak to track and you are the best scientist in that area or am I wrong Doctor" (Liam).

"So, Fury doesn't need the other guy" (Bruce).

"That's not what he told me" (Natasha).

"Doctor, we just need your help" (Liam).

"They need me in a cage" (Bruce).

"They don't want you in..." before Natasha could finish, banner slammed the table and spoke.

"Stop telling lies!" Banner retorted angrily.

And with that Natasha pulled out her gun that was under the table and pointed it at Banner. Liam just looked sideways with a serious look on his face.

"I'm sorry I just wanted to see how you would react" said Banner as if his earlier outburst was just a bad joke.

Liam seeing this laughed and put his hand on Natasha's hand to lower the gun.

"Well doctor you tried everything you wanted now if we can go" Liam said walking to the door pulling Natasha.

Bruce looked at them with a puzzled look on his face and spoke.

"So, there aren't any soldiers"

"We don't need them doctor that's what I'm here for." (Liam)

Bruce was stunned for a while until he came out of it and followed them.
