Another Asgardian

Chapter Thirty Seven

Ellesmere's POV

Director Fury introduced us to some new recruits for SHIELD, three siblings from Argentina, Jacob Arrows, Brenda Adrian and Jose Banning. Brenda didn't speak English and was an expert in hand combat. The youngest girl, Jose, had a brain like a steel trap. She was good at technicalities, computer hacking, anything keys and wires except the piano. I really admired her.

Her brother, Jacob, was to die for. I could have sworn Wanda made googly eyes at him when Fury introduced him to us. I admitted to staring the first time we met, he had eyes like a transparent ocean, they were blue green, I couldn't even tell if they were actually blue or green. He had an angelic face, with a nose like a sloppy hill but more attractive. He was skilled at weapon handling and hand combat including Ju-Jitsu. Clint wouldn't drop the issue of me dating an agent of SHIELD since we got off the Quinjet four days after my initiation.

"As long as I said so, you have to do so! "He said as we walked side by side into the Tower. The others were still at SHIELD. I had training with Widow in a few hours and I needed to be ready, Clint had offered to help me practice-fight before my actual training so we'd both left.

"I seriously don't need a boyfriend. I mean, that's just a waste of time. "I defended as we headed to the weapons storage.

He faked a sad laugh, "Cause you've got Thor now? Believe me, he is not gonna marry you. You need to have another someone asides your father, you know! ."

"I know that. But as of right now I don't want to have a date. If I wanted to chill I'd hang out with you guys, that's why we're a team, right? And besides, y'all are the best dates I could have, you and Tony, Steve, Bruce, Rhodey,Peter and Vision. The girls are a drag on hangouts. "

He snickered and tucked a hand in his jeans pocket then placed his free hand on the scan bar, it flickered twice then Friday welcomed us in.

"Okay, I agree with you but we're not gonna marry you either. That's the ugly truth. " I laughed at that. Clint was always straight with words like Nat. I would've said they'd make a great couple but Nat was an independent Tigress who owned her territory.

He went to another door and turned the lock, it opened to reveal a large spacious room with metal walls and transparent floors. It was completely empty.

"How come I haven't seen this place yet? "I asked strolling into the room. I turned but he wasn't standing at the door anymore, "Clint? "

His answer came from the weapons storage then his head poked through the side of the wide door, "I'm getting some gear! "

I nodded then turned around to inspect the room. It was oddly cold but that was probably because it was empty and had been closed for a long time. He came back in with his bow and arrow and a long sword that had a golden hilt and some weird markings on its blade.

I raised an eyebrow, "Please don't tell me you stole Excalibur! ."

He threw the sword at me, I caught it and was surprised at how weightless it was. "Awesome! "

"It's not Excalibur. Something like that, but I got it from an old friend. No one has used it for the longest time but seems we have a skilled swordsman now so she'll be needing it. "

"So, I'll use a sword and you'll use a bow and arrows? " He nodded. "That doesn't make any sense."

"Why don't we just start training first! "He said then went to the control panel that I didn't really notice by the side of the door. He pushed a few buttons and the door jammed shut and immediately, the room became some kind of virtual reality show.

The spacious room began unfolding like a scrabble board, it became wider and then a globe appeared in front of me and Clint with several red dots on different parts of it. I looked up at Clint in confusion.
