The next morning, Fury walks in surprised to see Tony and Banner stop working on the scepter.

Nick: (Angry) What are you doing, Mr. Stark?

Tony: Uh...kind of been wondering the same thing about you.

Nick: You're supposed to be locating the Tesseract.

Bruce: We are. The model's locked and we're sweeping for the signature now. When we get a hit, we'll have the location within half a mile.

Tony: And you'll get your cube back, no muss, no fuss. (suddenly his monitor shows a collection of Secret Files) What is phase 2?

Suddenly, Steve drops a HYDRA assault rifle on the table causing Fury, Banner and Tony to turn around. Cap looks pissed. Right behind him Y/n walks in eating some chips

Steve: Phase 2 is SHIELD uses the cube to make weapons. (TO Tony) Sorry, the computer was moving a little slow.

Nick: (trying to explain) Rogers, we gathered everything related to the Tesseract. This does not mean that we're...

Tony: I'm sorry, Nick.

[Tony moves the computer screen towards Fury which shows plans of THE WEAPONS.]

Tony: What were you lying?

Steve: I was wrong, director. The world hasn't changed a bit.

[At that moment, Thor and Natasha walk into the lab. Natasha keeps her eyes right on Banner. Banner looks at her, Pissed.]

Bruce: Did you know about this?

Natasha: You wanna think about removing yourself from this environment, doctor?

Bruce: I was in Calcutta, I was pretty well removed.

Natasha: Loki's manipulating you.

Bruce: And you've been doing what exactly?

Natasha: You didn't come here because I bat my eyelashes at you.

Bruce: Yes, and I'm not leaving because suddenly you get a little twitchy. I'd like to know why SHIELD is using the Tesseract to build weapons of mass destruction.

Nick: Because of them. (pointing at Thor)

Thor: (Stunned) Me?

Y/n: The fuck did I do?

Nick: Last year, Earth had a visitor from another planet who had a grudge match that leveled a small town. We learned that not only are we not alone, but we are hopelessly, hilariously, outgunned.(Looks at Y/n) And you've been on this planet centuries, and you don't even know who or what you are, what if there's more of you.

Y/n: According to Rogers and those files I'm a war hero, in every single one of them

Thor: My people want nothing but peace with your planet.

Nick: But you're not the only people out there, are you? And, you're not the only threat. The world's filling up with people who can't be matched, they can't be controlled.

Steve: Like you controlled the cube?

Thor: Your work with the Tesseract is what drew Loki to it, and his allies. It is the signal to all the realms that the earth is ready for a higher form of war.

Steve: A higher form?

Nick: You forced our hand. We had to come up with something.

Tony: Nuclear deterrent. 'Cause that always calms everything right down.

Nick: Remind me again how you made your fortune, Stark?

Steve: I'm sure if he still made weapons, Stark would be neck deep...
