Chapter 55 - Chapter 55 - Search For Bruce Banner

Fury led the girl from the room she had greeted him into a briefing room, yet another room that was on the same floor.

Upon entering the room, the first thing she did was glance around it, scanning for possible threats or things that could be used if something happened.

This was not only her instincts at play but also the training she received from the Agents amplifying it, making her more refined in the way she worked; her movements were purposeful.

The room was largely metallic looking in nature, with screens decorating most of the walls, computers with people working on them on the lower levels, and the main level containing a large table that was used to brief Agents.

With multiple screens on and in front of it to explain the missions.

As she glanced over at the table, her eyes fell on the two people already sitting there, one male and one female.

The male had blond hair, hazel eyes, and a rather muscular build, but he didn't look like anything special. He even had the buzz cut.

The female also had blond hair, but unlike the man, she had blue eyes, a slim build, and rather average curves. She wasn't very outstanding, but she could be called pretty.

As Lily and Fury approached the table, he spoke.

"Agent Peterson and Agent Johnson, this is Agent Lily. You three will be the main operatives for this mission."

Lily greeted them with a slight nod, taking notes of their names for the time being.

The male was called Peterson, while the female was Johnson.

They both greeted her, but she could see they were surprised by her youthful look. However, they didn't say anything about it as they were properly trained Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

After everyone took a seat, Fury pulled up a screen, showing a person that Lily was very familiar with. How could she not be, he was a major player within the MCU.

Bruce Banner.

He looked much younger than he did in Avengers, but that was once again because of the timeline.

His looks were almost identical to his actor's appearance, with minor differences.

He had short black hair, dark brown eyes, and a face that was slightly leaner than how it was in the films. He also had his glasses on in the picture.

"Doctor Robert Bruce Banner."

Fury said as he introduced the man they were all looking at, causing Lily to shift her attention toward paying attention to him.

"Former Professor at Culver University and a researcher that worked on a secret government project that ended in failure. Or so we assumed."

He clicked a button and shifted the screens around them to show images and reports about Bruce all around the stats, with some even having images of him in his Hulk form, but they were far too blurry.

"Reports have it that he succeeded in the project and has been used on himself; however, due to the fact that he is on the run, we have no way of confirming it."

'I see, so this mission is the one where they went looking for Bruce Banner.'

She had vague information about the first time S.H.I.E.L.D. actually went looking for Bruce, but she didn't know much about it since she had never read those comics, and it wasn't mentioned in the movies.

She didn't know when it happened, so she was pleased that it happened when she was an Agent.

"We have recently pinpointed the location he has been staying at for the last few days, our mission today is to investigate him and deem if he is a threat or someone to bring in."

After he finished explaining the mission in more detail, giving each of them their assignment and temporary fake identities, he ordered them to move out so they could make it as quickly as possible.

While on an aircraft to the location, Lily thought over the plan.

The male and female Agents would act as a couple on vacation, and she would pretend to be their kid.

They would stay in the area while Fury, who would also be undercover, would approach Bruce and try to feel him out by speaking to him.

They would get involved if he deemed anything out of place or necessary.

It was a simple plan, but it was the best they could come up with their limited information. They literally had no information about what happened after the project suddenly failed, so they had no information about his capabilities.

They made the best out of what they had.

Eventually, they arrived at the location, landing the aircraft outside the range of the city to avoid being spotted, and used a car to drive to the location he was last seen.

It was around Noon by now, and from the Agents that were tasked to monitor him from a distance, he was currently in a bar.

They arrived at the front of the building, a run-down place that was made out of stone and wood. It wasn't very fancy or even well built, which was to be expected from a small bar in a small place outside the major cities.

'Kirby's.'

Was the name on the board of the bar either because it was owned by Kirby or because the name of the place was Kirby's. But they didn't pay much attention to that; instead, they began their act.

Walking in first, Lily and the two other Agents played the part of a family arriving for the start of their vacation. As for Fury, he would enter a while after, so it didn't seem like they were together.
