Chapter 84

“An aircraft carrier? Wasn't the mission top secret?” I questioned as the X-jet flew to an aircraft carrier which obviously belonged to the SHIELD considering the logo it had on it.

“Director Nick Fury himself will brief you on this mission and he is here. Your teammates for this mission are also here.” Agent Phil explained.

“Land it there!” Agent Phil instructed as we landed on the aircraft carrier.

“You are finally here, Phil.” A red haired beauty greeted us as we departed from the X-jet.

“Ah! Hello, Natasha!” Agent Phil returned the greeting, revealing the woman's name, Natasha.

“Who is this new guy? I recognise Storm and Wolverine but not him.” Natasha asked who I was.

I had thought she would recognise me considering that I was rather famous. But it looks like she could not recognise me even when I was wearing my iconic suit.

“He is Albion. You may recognise him by the name he has been given, Red Lightning.” Agent Phil said, introducing me.

“But isn't he just a kid from what I know about him?” Natasha questioned.

“He is. But Director Fury decided to have him on the team even if only for backup. We can't just ignore his firepower after all.” Agent Phil explained the reason for my presence.

“Who is she?” I asked as Agent Phil was answering her every question without any hesitation.

“Oh! This is Agent Natasha Romanov, also known as Black Widow. She is one of our top agents and would be a part of the team we are creating.” Agent Phil introduced Agent Natasha as our future teammate.

“That is enough talk, Phil. Now, you must go. Director Fury is waiting for you in the control room.” Natasha gave Agent Phil his orders.

“Looks like I must go, everyone. I will leave you in the hands of Natasha.” Saying these words, Agent Phil departed for the control room.

We were about to continue our conversation when a man suddenly came running towards us. With the help of my Dragon Sense, I could clearly sense that his body was a lot more powerful compared to an ordinary human.

He was clearly a superhuman. For some reason, I felt like I had seen his face before but I could not remember where.

“James! I can't believe that you are still alive. As soon as I saw you with those claws, I knew that it was you.” The man said with pure happiness on his face as he moved to hug Mr. Logan.

Mr. Logan surprisingly didn't resist his hug for some reason. It was clear that the man recognised Mr. Logan even though he was in his suit. Perhaps he was someone from Mr. Logan’s past.

“Did I know you before? I am sorry but I have lost my memories.” Mr. Logan replied apologetically.

“What! You can't remember me, James. It’s me, Steve Rogers. We fought together in the Second World War.” The man introducing himself as Steve Rogers tried to remind Mr. Logan of the past times.

Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

As he said this words however, I suddenly realised who he was. Steve Rogers and these second World War, this two clues made me remember who he was.

“You are Captain America!” I couldn't believe that I was before a living legend. I had been a big fan of him since I was a kid.

“Yes, I am indeed Captain America.” He admitted with a shy smile.

“But how is that possible?” Ms. Ororo asked, surprised by his presence since he should not be alive.

“We had found him sealed in ice several metres deep inside a glacier. Honestly, we still can't believe that the Super Soldier Serum allowed him to survive inside the ice for 70 years.

Actually, we wanted Captain here to enjoy his life but we had to call him for this mission.”

Agent Natasha explain the reason why Captain America was still alive. However, we still knew nothing about the mission even now. It seems that Director Fury will be the one who will tell us.

“Look, this picture really shows both of us.” Captain America took out a picture which clearly depicted both him and Mr. Logan in a military camp.

“Gentlemen, you will have time to talk about the past later. For now, we must move.” Agent Natasha said, reminding us why we were here.

As we started moving, we came across a person who clearly didn't seem to be a staff.

“Hello, Natasha!” The man greeted Natasha, clearly knowing her.

“You must be Dr. Bruce Banner.” Captain America said, recognising him.

“You are Dr. Banner! I am a big fan of yours, sir. I was greatly impressed by your research on Gamma rays.” I said as I excitedly shaked his hand. I can't believe I met two people I deeply admired today.

Although I knew what kind of monster Dr. Banner could transform into, I still admired the scientist in him.

“Didn't know that I still had fans after what had happened?” Dr. Banner replied. However, it seems that he was happy to receive such admiration from me.

“Dr. Banner, I hope that you will be able to find Tesseract.” Captain America said.

“I will see what I can do.” Dr. Banner replied.

“Tessaract?” Could it be the same artefact that I knew about or was it just something with the same name?

“Since you are going to know about it in a few minutes anyways, let me tell you about it.” Agent Natasha said, finally allowing us to get some information.

“This is Tesseract.” Agent Natasha said, showing us the picture of a blue glowing cube.

“It has been stolen and our mission is to retrieve it. It contains enough energy to completely change this world. So, you understand how important this mission is. The rest, Director will tell you.”

Damn it! This Tessaract looked just like how Ancient One had described it to me. But shouldn’t it be on Asgard and not on Earth? I must tell this to Ancient One as soon as I get the chance.

“Agent Romanov!” A staff member came and murmured something to Agent Natasha.

“It seems that we must now enter the carrier. The air is going to be sparse in a while.” Agent Natasha said to all of us.

“Is this a submarine?” Captain America questioned.

“How about I show you all?” Agent Natasha said as she took us to the railing.

Soon after we reached it, the waters started churning and then a freaking jet engine appeared out of water.

Looking around, it seems that there were jet engines on both sides of the carrier.

“Is this carrier going to fly?” Ms. Ororo asked, amazed by the phenomenon before her eyes.

“Yes, it is. There is a reason it is called a Helicarrier.” Agent Natasha said with a smirk.

“So, worse than a submarine, huh!” Captain America commented.

“I think not, Captain. Now, follow me.” Agent Natasha asked for us to follow her inside the Helicarrier.

As we started moving inside, I saw the opportunity.

I immediately activated the Chameleon mode of the suit which created optical illusions around my suit. This mode would be more than enough to mask any spell I casted.

I then casted a communication spell, sending information about Tessaract to Ancient One that it was on Earth.

“Tessaract is on Earth and the world knows about it. I don't have the whole information but it seems to have been stolen.”

Looks like Ancient One understood how important this information was since she replied in just a minute.

“Keep an eye around and send me any information you find as soon as possible. I will see what I can do on my side.”
