Cosmic Collision (Percy Jackson / Marvel)

Chapter 12

Agent 007

My head was pounding  as I woke up. I tried opening my eyes, buy a painful flash of white heat closed them shut again.  Ugh, what happened to me?

'...and the bosss wants him ready as sssoon as posssible.' a reptilian voice was speaking slowly. Another voice chimed in, ' Masster will be ssoo proud of uss.'

I opened my eyes by a fraction having heard the eerie conversation happening around me. I was in a warehouse of sorts, with my arms bound tightly around my back. They had propped me against a chair, with my legs bound too and I was in the center of the room.

Suddenly a cold feeling crept through my spine, spreading from my back to the nape of my head. The pounding increased to a maximum and the weird sensation was hot or cold any longer. But then something strange happened. 

As soon as the cold reached my temple, I felt a sharp shock in my head, and the a stretching sensation that my brains were being pulled apart and then back together like rubber or gum. The sensation quickly stopped and as replaced with one I had even less experience with.

 Total Blankness.

'Loookk. The human age-ent hass awaken from hiss sssleep.'

The person, no- creature who drawled this out was a lady who had huge serpent like trunks in place of each of her legs. She had long greenish hair and was playing with a ancient looking knife between her fingers. She looked like a hot model warrior creature.

The creature next to her slither-walked towards the door, probably to inform someone that I had woken up. That whole thing looked like she was walking on air.

I was simply taking in all the sights before me as if they were of no consequence- as if I had known all of this before, and simply forgotten about it.

Did I? Was I hallucinating or maybe, maybe I was hooked onto a machine somewhere. Maybe I crashed my car and I was in a coma. Maybe the-

'AAAAHHHHH!!!!'

I heard someone scream, and tried to find the person, until I realized that I was the person who had been screaming.

The blankness quickly disappeared and my head erupted into another painful stretching and pounding sensation. This sensation was again pushed aside. My mind was blank again.

My brows began to relax and the tension lessened. I let out a shaky exhale, feeling my parched mouth and throat. The snake lady had walked right behind me to the side and was observing me closely. She took her knife and and held it against the back of my neck, trailing it down my back, and then to my arms. She quickly slit the ropes drawing a fair amount of blood in the process.

'No funny busssiness Age-ent. I'm fasster than you thinkk.' She tossed over half a bottle of water to my lap. 'Drinkk.'

I wanted to refuse, I really did. The bottle could have poison for all I knew! Just as I was about to open my mouth and tell her, I stopped confused.

What... Then suddenly I realized. I must have gotten lost in my thoughts.  I had been so happy and grateful. You see, I had been given water. The serpent lady had given me, a mangy cur, some precious water. I would be forever grateful to her. She was considerate and I was forever ind-

'AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!AAA-'

The stretching and the pounding quickly stopped again and my mind was blank once more. With absolutely no thoughts in my head, I felt myself being slowly pulled towards the dark.

Agent Phillip

This was bad. This was really really bad. 

First a device that has not been used in a long time, and for good reason was used recently.

Then the agent who had to respond to the call of distress went missing. An agent from the European Division, and supposedly one of the best, went missing during the first mission. His GPS signals were off the charts- it was as if he was off the face of the Earth.

And then, I was told that between in between all this madness, Captain America woke up!

Areyoufreackingkiddingme? After 70 years of sleeping he freaking woke up! 

I have yet to meet him, but he probably needs some peace right now. Maybe my trading cards can show him how much of a hero he is, and how huge a legacy he left behind when he went in the ice. 

I tried bringing my mind back to focus, rather reluctantly too. There were more pressing matters at hand right now. I rack my brain to figure out how to solve the two issues. Having made a decision, I pick up my phone and call the first person I can think of.

Natasha Romanoff.

' Sup Coulson.'

'Hey Nat. There's a new mission for you. This one's a bit different. Where are you today?'

'I'm in Canada. There was some issue with a drug cartel owner and a CEO. All sorted. I'm on my way back right now.'

'Perfect. I'll send the mission statement to you. '

'That works Phil' I could practically see her smiling on the phone.

'And Nat? Be careful for this one. I might send another agent for this. The Hapterstrus device is in use again.'

'Shit. Yeah Coulson, I'll remember. Bye'

'Bye'

As I cut the call and dialed another number. Melinda May. Agent may was a short Asian woman who was one of the best agents SHIELD had to offer. She had a mean punch and I had seen the damage she could do in combat.  The phone stopped ringing as she picked the call.

'Hey Coulson. What's the report this time?'

'Right to the chase as always, Hey May.' I laugh lightly. 'The mission is a search and rescue one. A prominent European agent has is missing, and he is dealing with the Hapterstrus devices. I've put Agent Romanoff along with you, this might be dangerous.'

'The Hapterstrus Devices? Phil, how does it still exist? I thought that SHIELD had destroyed it.'

'Yeaahh no. Director Fury thought it was best not to directly interfere with it and left it with SAXA. Anyways I'll send the mission statement to you.'

'That works Phil, catch you when this is all done.' Saying that she cut the call. Still the same May.

I now had a choice. I could either wait for the Natasha and May to find Agent 007 and then think about the device, or I could send an agent separately to get the device immediately. But what if the Agent 007 was targeted because of his connection with the Hapterstrus device? 

I think that it would be a better idea to wait for some more information before I make another decision. Fury had taken a silent day- no one knew where he was, but I was pretty sure that it had to do with the whole Captain America issue. 

Well I couldn't imagine being the director of such a powerful organization like SHIELD for even a single day. 

My thoughts were cut short by a ping notification on my phone. 

Phil, we have an issue. Come to the director's room immediately. - M. Hill
