Tony and Astra started breaking the walls, connecting wires and setting up pipes.
"Coulson!" Astra greeted, looking up from the bolt she just finished placing.
"Agent Stark." He greeted back. "I heard you broke perimeter." He got to business, referring to Tony.
"Yeah. That was like three years ago. Where have you been?"
"I was doing some stuff."
"Yeah, well, me too. And it worked." Tony informed, motioning to the state the garage was in. "Hey, I'm playing for the home team, Coulson. You and all your Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers and Sisters. Now, are you gonna let me work or break my balls?"
"What's this doing here." Coulson questioned, holding the prototype for Captain America's shield from the 40's. Of course Howard would have kept that. He always told Astra stories of the great Captain America. Howard would even show he all the little movies and comic books.
"That's it." Tony realized. "Bring that to me."
"You know what this is?" Coulson wondered.
"It's exactly what I need to make this work." He took the shield and examined it. "Lift the coil." Coulson attempted to lift the coil, struggling too. "Go, go. Put your knees into it. There you go and... drop it. Drop it." Tony then set the tubular spirit leveler onto the coil. "Perfectly level. I'm busy. What do you want?"
"Nothing. Goodbye. I've been reassigned. Directory Fury wants me in New Mexico, and Astra as well." Coulson informed. Astra looked up at the sound of her name and took of her goggles.
"No, no. You can't have her. I need her brain." Her brother protested.
"You will be fine, okay." She moved over to stand beside Coulson. "I'll call when I get there."
"Well, have fun. It's the land of enchantment." He accepted.
"So I'm told." Coulson agreed.
"Secret stuff?"
"Something like that."
"Good Luck."
"Bye." They reached to shake hands. "Thanks."
"We need you."
"Yea, more than you know."
"Not that much." Coulson denied.
"Bye, big bro." Astra hugged her brother, He gave her a kiss on her temple and she left with Coulson.
"Is this an 0-8-4, by any chance?" She asked curiously while they walked on the jet.
"Yep." He answered and a smile grew on her face.
