"It starts with this thing... a glowing, blue cube. It seems harmless at first, but it's so much more than that."
"It's... powerful. I can't explain it, but there's so much about it. I don't even know what it really is, but someone wants it. I hear this voice... this nasly, creepy voice."
"The Tesseract has awakened."
"It is on a little world – a human world."
"They would wield its power... but our ally knows its workings as they never will."
"He is ready to lead and our force – our Chitauri – will follow."
"A world will be his – the universe, yours."
"And the humans, what can they do... but burn."
"And what do you think they want to do with it?"
"I honestly don't know at all. But with all the nightmares... It's very bad."
New York, 2012 --- Four years later.
Amara Rosas slid a coffee to her brother, who caught it in his hands to better wake himself up. It had been four years since they moved back to New York. Four years since he became a hero, four years since he joined S.H.I.E.L.D, four years since Stane & Vanko. He had been leading a relatively peaceful life now, surrounded by his older sister, and his now-six-year-old nephew.
But ever since the nightmares, Zach found himself jolting awake. Everyday, he heard the same distorted voice in his sleep. Every time this creature snarled, Zach always woke up, and tried going back to sleep.
Sometimes it worked. Sometimes it didn't.
"Haven't seen you this restless since the times Natasha came to visit," Amara noted. "At least you both didn't wake up either me or Jayden." In the four years that followed Vanko's defeat, Zach had immediately become an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D, and as she had said, Natasha Romanoff became his Supervising Officer.
