Nick Fury and Phil Coulson walked through SHIELD's New York headquarters, their steps echoing in the corridor as they approached the elevator.
Coulson pressed the button for the lowest floor, his expression uneasy.
"Are you sure about this, sir? You should think about your decision again."
Fury's eye was steady, his thoughts resolute.
"He's more in control than Hulk. Trained, disciplined, a soldier through and through. And we've got someone who can stop him if things go south. He would be a el to follow orders and if we are to recruit banner, we need to know what we are dealing with."
Coulson's brow furrowed, "You sure about giving Hound the responsibility of such a big taskforce, sir?"
Fury's voice was firm, his mind made up. "That shithead might be lazy as hell, a bit arrogant, and the biggest pervert out there, reading smut in public and in front of women, but he's capable."
"He's been a mercenary, Coulson. I'm sure he's handled jobs like this for years even before we got to know about him. He has been in this profession for some time now. He has handled different tasks in such a way as if he had done each of them hundreds of times."
"He's got political acumen, knows when to push or pull back, has leadership skills, and can fight anything—spying, investigating, taking down super-powered threats of the highest level."
Coulson nodded, his thoughts settling. 'Director is right. Hound's a one-man army.'
"Sounds like you've made up your mind, sir."
"Yes, Coulson," Fury said, his voice unwavering as the elevator doors opened. "Hound—no, Kakashi Hatake—will lead the Avengers as it's leader."
"If there is a man who would be able to control Hulk and Abomination and stop them if they go on a rampage, if there as a man that could deal with Tony Stark and his playboy personality, it's him. And we need a leader just like that."
They stepped out of the elevator, heading to a high-security cell where Emil Blonsky sat in his Abomination form, his massive frame hunched behind reinforced bars.
Blonsky's yellow eyes glared, his voice a low growl. "What do you want now?"
Fury's smirk was sharp, 'Time to reel him in.'
"Want to be released?"
Blonsky's eyes narrowed, his thoughts wary. 'Nothing's free with SHIELD.'
"I know it won't be free. But it doesn't matter. I've realized I liked my humanity. I'm not this… thing."
Fury leaned closer, his voice smooth. "We might know ways to turn you back, let you switch to this form like Hulk. What do you say, Blonsky?"
Blonsky's surprise was clear, his thoughts racing. 'Turn back? Control this?'
"What methods?"
Fury's smirk widened. "One involves the guy who kicked your ass. He says he might be able to help."
Blonsky's mind flashed to the masked man, the blur of speed and power that sent him in this prison cell.
The man who without any effort, without any scratch managed to subdue hulk first and then him in his monster form. A form where he had so much strength that he could crush a building.
"Can I ask something? Just who is he? No… what is he?"
Fury sighed, he spoke honestly, "Truth is, Blonsky, I don't know who he really is."
"Let's hope we find out soon," he said, his mind on Natasha's mission with Kakashi. 'She'll crack him, one way or another.'
"And how is he gonna help me?" Blonsky asked
"I don't know but he said he could try some methods. He said he has some experience with raging monsters. Don't know what that meant." Fury replied
"You said that you have methods? What other methods are there?"
"We would have research team working on it then. But I believe that Hound's method would work. He has not failed me or any of his missions yet." Fury said with a smirk
"And what do you want in return?" Blonsky asked knowing all of this would come with strings attached.
"I am giving you a chance to redeem yourself. A second chance. I am putting together a team with Hound as the leader and you would be joining it." Fury said looking straight into Blonsky's eyes.

An armored SHIELD van rumbled through a secure convoy, the Tesseract secured in a reinforced case.
Kakashi sat in the back, flipping through a new romance novel. Twelve other vans flanked them, a squad of Level 4 and 5 agents spread across the vehicles.
Natasha Romanoff sat across from him.
"Are you a virgin?" she asked, her voice sudden and teasing.
Kakashi's eye snapped up, his expression stunned. 'What the—?'
"What gave you that idea?" 'She's really not holding back with her words huh.'
Natasha leaned forward, "I've licked my lips twice looking at you, bit my lip once, showed you my cleavage seven times on purpose, crossed my legs a dozen times to flash my thighs, and even gave you a view of my butt when we got in this van."
Her smirk widened. "If I made these moves on any other man, they'd be in bed with me by now. I'm insulted."
Kakashi's thoughts were dry. 'She didn't mention that any guy trying would be dead with crushed balls.'
"I have hormones like any other man," he said, his voice deadpan. "And no, I'm not a virgin. I'm just trained to ignore irrelevant distractions."
