Chapter 8: Meanwhile

SHIELD'S DC BASE

"Bring it in, I want you to tell no one about this you understand." A man could be seen sitting in a black office, his seat a large office type recliner coloured black. The room had no bugs according to his knowledge as he had combed through it every ten minutes as well as after every visit, and for those he might have missed he had a small earring in the shape of an N on his left ear. Most people believe he wears it in memory of his father whom he was named after, in reality it was a neat piece of tech with anti-surveillance capabilities.

The man was Bald and had a black eyepatch on his right eye and a clean well-kept mustache on his upper lip. He had dark skin and wore a black trench coat and semi-casual black military like clothes that worked better than almost any body armour out there, probably a proverbial fuck you to his father who loved to wear actual body armour more than anything else.

This man suddenly touches his eye patch. "A cat you say," after getting his reply he cuts the line and stands up. "This motherfucker!" he shouts, throwing the stuff in his office around. "Who does he think he is calling me junior, mother fucking biomechanical… He even a mentioned sending me a damn cat, fucking …" He throws a table among other poor objects in the room.

This man raging at being called junior and the cat is the current and new One-Eyed Eagle, Nick Fury jr. If this was Ultimate Spiderman, his anger meter would be already broken as you can see through his actions.

Afghanistan

A man could be seen working on a suit of armour. This armour would come to be known as the mark 0 or prototype Iron Man armour in a short while. The man had a dirty goatee covered in dust and he wore a black shirt soaked in sweat. On his chest was a bulky circular disk with a glowing blue light. "Hurry up Tony," his companion an old man who looked to be close to half a step into his grave tells him.

The Collectors Ship

"What are you doing Groot," a racoon wearing leather clothes could be seen saying telling the giant walking tree. "What are we looking for in the first place?" a brown-haired man asked. He had a trim semi-neat beard that sort of put together his whole rugged look, blue eyes and a silly flirtatious grin as always.

He was wearing a red leather jacket and greyish-brown pants that had features of cargo pants, i.e the giant pockets. Next to him was a green skinned woman with silvery marks on her face, she had dark green, really dark green bordering black coloured hair, her eyes were yellow, and she also wore what seemed to be leather as well.

Suddenly the man tripped on something, his hand hit a console at just the right angle and it short circuited. One of the 'statues' start to defrost. "Quill what did you do?" the woman asks the man in an irritated tone. "Nothing Gamora, I swear it was an accident," the man replied.

The man that fell out of this defrosted statue looked exactly like Steel, the only markings on his body a tattoo in the likeness of an Omega Ultralink taking an M shape on his chest. The man had no beard and his hair had a sky-blue colour with hints of green. He gasps for air and opens his eyes "Where am I, and who the fuck are you guys?" was the first thing out of his mouth.

Manhattan

On the giant tv on the Daily Bugle's building a man with neat brown hair greying on the sides and a greying mustache could be seen. This man was wearing a dress shirt with a tie and a sweater vest on top of it. He also had a scowl that made him seem angry although those that knew him know that's just his resting face.

This man is J. Jonah Simpson and currently he was doing what he does best. "Spiderman is a menace! ..." looking at the ranting man from a couple buildings across was the spectacular, the amazing spiderman, in a prototype suit of course.

"Why can't you complement me for once Jonah," he mutters under his breath. He hears a siren about five blocks away and jumps of the building and starts swinging in the direction the sound was moving towards.

N-Tek base

"Hurry up Cindy we're moving," a short old looking man says. He had messy hair and a rugged appearance with a square jaw. He wore a long-sleeved shirt that was a yellowish cream and crumpled. "Why?" asks Cindy Moon. "Because it's safer," was the reply she got.

As they moved through the corridors, they run into another group consisting of Forge in his usual body armour, Molly in a ninja like body armour and "Jake! What are you doing here," Cindy asks the moment she sees the group. "I have no idea," he replies.

"Hurry up and head to the submarine, those bastards from HYDRA discovered this place," Forge says opening up a secret path in the wall. Jake looks at him before pulling Cindy into the tunnel.

"Molly you should leave through here too there are lots of exits down here you know," Forge tells his sister. She nods and walks in followed by Ezekiel Sims and Forge. Not long after the secret tunnel closes, the Winter Soldier walks into the room.
