At S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Joint Dark Energy Mission Facility in the Mojave Desert, everything was in chaos due to a bizarre phenomenal occurrence there. Some of the personnel were ordered to evacuate the facility. A helicopter carrying Nick Fury lands at the base. Fury's Second-in-Command Agent Maria Hill jumps of the helicopter, followed by Fury himself. Awaiting their arrival was Agent Coulson. Fury and Hill walked up to him.
"How bad is it?" Fury asked.
Coulson took off his shades before replying...
"That's the problem, sir. We don't know."
Coulson then leads Fury and Hill into the facility as he explains the situation.
"Doctor Selvig read an energy surge from the Tesseract four hours ago." Coulson said.
"NASA didn't authorize Selvig to go to test phase." Fury said.
"He wasn't testing it. He wasn't even in the room. Spontaneous event." Coulson said.
"It just turned itself on?" Hill asked.
"Where are the energy levels now?" Fury asked.
"Climbing. When Selvig couldn't shut it down, we ordered evac." Coulson replied.
"How long to get everyone out?" Fury asked.
"Campus should be cleared in the next half-hour." Coulson replied.
"Do better." Fury said before Coulson leaves to do the evac.
"Sir, evacuation may be futile." Hill said.
"We should tell them to go back to sleep?" Fury asked rhetorically.
"If we can't control the Tesseract's energy, there may not be a minimum safe distance." Hill said.
"I need you to make sure the Phase 2 prototypes are shipped out." Fury said.
"Sir, is that really a priority right now?" Hill asked with concern.
"Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on." Fury replied. "Clear out the tech below. Every piece of Phase 2 on a truck and gone."
"Yes, sir." Hill said before turning her attention to two S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. "With me."
Fury enters the lab where a group of S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists and Doctor Erik Selvig are monitoring the Tesseract, which is placed on a circular device.
"Talk to me. Doctor." Fury said, getting Selvig's attention.
"Director." Selvig greeted.
"Is there anything we know for certain?" Fury asked.
"The Tesseract is misbehaving." Selvig said as another scientist approach the Tesseract with a probe. The scientist poked the probe at the Tesseract, causing its energy to go off, causing him to move backwards.
"Is that supposed to be funny?" Fury asked.
"No, it's not funny at all. The Tesseract is not only active, she's behaving." Selvig replied.
"I assume you pulled the plug." Fury said.
"She's an energy source. We turn off the power, she turns it back on. If she reaches peak level-" Selvig said before Fury interrupts him.
"We prepared for this, Doctor. Harnessing energy from space." Fury said.
"But we don't have the harness. My calculations are far from complete. And she's throwing off interference, radiation. Nothing harmful, low levels of gamma radiation." Selvig said.
