His secrets have secrets
TO A NORMAL PERSON, HAVING THE BRUCE BANNER AND TONY STARK IN THE SAME ROOM WOULD BE EXCITING. To Anne? Not so much. Bruce Banner was her hero. Tony Stark? He makes her want to vomit. And it doesn't help with his, let's say exciting personality. It doesn't make it better. Especially when he knows he is very smart, yet his ego takes it to the next level. And it tickled Anne even more to know that Nick Fury put him on the job knowing full well that she was already searching with Banner and how much she hated Stark.
She tried to not dwell on that matter much. She had a job to do: find the tesseract. The blue cube that everyone was obsessed with all because everyone thinks they are gods. Anne wanted it for a different reason though, to help mankind. And thankfully, no one knew of her plans just yet.
"The Gamma readings are definitely consistent with Selvig's reports on the Tesseract. But it's gonna take weeks to process." The Doctor Banner scanned the scepter laid out in front of him.
Meanwhile, Tony was in another corner tapping away on another screen. All of them were concentrating on the task on hand. "If we bypass their mainframe and direct route to the Homer cluster we can clock this at around six hundred teraflops." He grumbled.
The doctor chuckled aloud. "All I packed was a toothbrush." Banner joked.
Anne watched as Stark made his way over to the other doctor. She still stood frozen by her part of lab by most of the screens. Her job? Was to continue tracking for gamma radiations that the tesseract emitted. Not the most exciting job- like one that Banner or Stark had- but it was still something to keep her busy until they did find the tesseract. At least it was an easy task. All she had to do was keep her eyes on the screen and occasionally tap it. Not to demanding.
Tony looked over to Anne with a smug smile. She grimaced at the man, her eyes gazing dead straight at the man. "You know," He turned to Banner. "you should come by Stark Tower some time. Top ten floors-all R and D. You'd love it, it's a candy land."
"Thanks." Banner grumbled as he glanced down to the scepter and then to the screen over and over again. "But last time I was in New York I kind of broke Harlem."
Tony made his way over to the other side of Banner. Anne didn't think anything of it until he winked obnoxiously. She kept her eyes glued on the man, knowing that something was about to happen whether it was good or not. "Well, I promise a stress free environment. No tension, no surprises."
"Ow!"
"Tony!" Anne yelled aloud. She stepped out of her little corner to get closer to the doctor. "Are you kidding me?"
