Shield's Liaison

In Stark tower the Avengers were all together, all of them were wearing regular clothes instead of their armour and outfits. They were all sat down apart from Tony who was stood up and pacing near the bar.

"Is Grim going to come or what?" Tony asked, more than a bit annoyed that one of the more interesting members wasn't here.

"I don't know." Natasha shrugged. "Harry's not really a...'party' sort of guy. He's more of the 'I'd rather spend a night watching TV then going to sleep' kind of guy."

"That sounds horribly boring for a wizard." Tony frowned as he picked up a glass cup and filled it with alcohol. "Well I guess he will just have to miss out on all the fun and alcohol." Tony shrugged, he was about to raise the glass when he heard a bark. Padfoot had somehow gotten into the room, Padfoot quickly made his way to Natasha and sat down by her feet.

"Hi boy." Natasha smiled at him.

"So if the wonder dog is here then we should assume that his owner isn't far behind." Tony commented. Any further words were cut off by the sound of wings, everyone looked up to see a big bird flying above them, not just any bird, a falcon. The bird circled around the room before descending, as it neared the ground it transformed back into Harry who had landed in front of an awestruck Tony Stark. Harry casually took the drink from his hand and took a sip.

"Hmm, not bad." Harry commented as he walked over to the others and sat down between Natasha and Clint. "So...am I late?" Harry asked as he drank a bit more from the glass.

"Yep." Natasha nodded. "Definitely late."

"Fashionably?" Harry asked in a mock worried voice.

"Just about." Natasha replied.

"Wonderful." Harry replied, breathing out a sigh of relief.

"We was starting to think that you weren't going to show." Steve commented as Stark finally sat down with the group.

"Yeah," Clint nodded. "you're not really a part guy."

"Fury badgered me into coming." Harry shrugged.

"So...you can turn into animals?" Stark asked in an excited voice. "Can you turn into any animal?" He asked.

"Kind of." Harry replied.

"What do you mean?"

"The only animal I can safely transform myself into is the form you had just seen me take, if I wanted to I could take my wand and aim it at myself before trying to force myself to take another animal form but I wouldn't do that as it's dangerous and could easily go wrong in a multitude of different ways."

"Could you safely turn me or anyone else into an animal?" Stark asked.

"Yeah." Harry nodded. "But it's easier to do it with inanimate objects."

"Why is that?"

"Because they have no will of their own, if I tried it on a human then they would not want to turn into an animal, even if they think they did then their subconscious mind will not want to as it's dangerous to have your whole body changed."

"Your wand, how does it work?" Tony asked in a curious voice.

"It simply is a focus that helps me use my magic."

"So it's help channel your magic, can anyone use it?" Tony asked in a hopeful voice.

"No."

"Why?"

"What are you? A news reporter? What the hell is up with all these questions?"

"It's not everyday you meet an actual wizard." Tony said defensively. "Oh is Merlin real?"

"Tony, stop bothering him." A red headed woman said, Harry recognized her as Pepper Potts, Tony Stark's girlfriend.

"Oh this is Pepper," Tony said to Harry as he introduced Pepper. "she's my girlfriend."

"And babysitter." Pepper added with a small smirk.

"I know who she is," Harry replied before noticing the only other non-Avenger in the room. "and you would be Colonel James Rhodes."

"That's correct." Rhodey nodded. "How did you know?" He asked.

"I had to do my research on Stark a few years ago during the whole rescue him from the dessert and Obadiah Stane shit, you and Miss Potts were the closest people to him." Harry shrugged.

"Makes sense," Tony hummed. "by the way, your magic, how does that work? Is it a form of energy you are born with? Can anyone get it?"

"Tony." Pepper said in a warning tone.

"Fine, fine," Tony rolled his eyes. "I promise I will stop bothering him, but before I do can I ask that he just shows us one bit of magic?"

"I am not a performing dog." Harry said in an irritated voice.

"Woof." Padfoot barked.

"No, you're not either." Harry replied.

"You can understand him?" Pepper blinked.

"Either that or I'm crazy, probably a bit of both." Harry shrugged.

"So about that magic?" Tony persisted.

"Fine." Harry sighed, his wand appeared in his hand. "Expecto patronum." Harry said under his breath, his wand tip glowed brightly before he waved his wand and a his patronus shot out in the form of a wispy, large, blue-white, transparent dog that looked exactly like Padfoot, the patronus dog ran around the air before stopping in front of Harry. Harry petted it for a moment before he let it disappear.

"Wow." Thor breathed out, everyone else clearly shared a similar opinion as they also had amazed looks on their faces. "That is impressive magic." He complimented.

"What was that?" Steve asked.

"It's a spell designed to fight off dementors." Harry answered.

"Fight off what?"

"Basically soul and emotion sucking demons." Harry shrugged.

"There are soul and emotion sucking demons?!" Pepper gasped.

"I don't know what would give you that idea." Harry said in a dry voice. "Perhaps the fact that I just said it." He said, pretending to guess.

"Don't be grouchy." Natasha said, earning an eyeroll from Harry.

"Sir." Jarvis's voice echoed throughout the room.

"What is that?" Thor asked as he jumped to his feet. "A ghost?"

"No, that's just Jarvis, something I created." Tony explained as he got up and gently pushed Thor back into his seat. "What is it Jarvis?"

"Sir, an agent from Shield has arrived." Jarvis said, everyone looked at Barton, Natasha and Harry, all three shrugged as if to say 'don't ask us, we don't know'.

"Well we're busy, so send them to Shield or tell them to come back another time." Tony replied.

"Sir, I'm afraid my protocols are being overwritten." Jarvis said in an apologetic voice just before the elevator doors opened.

"Damn it Pepper." Tony said as he gave her a look that made it clear he was blaming her for this.

A woman exited out of the elevator, wearing civilian clothes like everyone else. Harry stood up upon seeing her. The woman had an athletic looking body, blue eyes, a pretty face and blonde hair with face framing bangs, her hair descended down to her shoulders.

"Wait a sec," Harry said, "I know you, I've seen you before."

"I'm glad you haven't completely forgotten me." She smiled. "I suppose I should thank you for saving my life yesterday."

"What do you mean?" Natasha asked.

"He saved my life during the whole alien invasion, I was thrown out of a building and he caught me. Oh sorry, I should probably introduce myself, I am the liaison between Shield and the Avengers. My name is Gwen, Gwen Stacy."
