Nick nodded. "The sooner that you talk, the better. And depending on what type of information you give will determine the punishment that I give. I won't be telling Stark, as you requested, but I assume you would also like to be getting this done sooner rather than later.

" I would. " Anne said" Can Phil , Captain Rogers, Clint and The Doctor be present? " She asked knowing that the more heard what she had to say was better. Also she had information that help SHEILD fight HYDRA.

"I do not see why not," Nick said. "Before anything else though...it's good to have you back Anne."

" Thank you Nick. It's good to be finally back. " Anne said and went into the room. She took a deep breath and told them about the day of the bombing. " I had to open my watch, since it wad telling me it was time. Things were hard to focus on but I knew my visions were stronger. I knew then Wang was really working for HYDRA and had no intention of telling us where Red Skull was." Anne said. " The reason I ran was because I changed form and didn't know at the time how to explain it. I shot Wang so he wouldn't get in the way and found one of my old contacts. You remember The Dragon don't you Nick? After I met the man in the alley I went to him and Dragon helped me build a new life. I used what resources I had to find Roger and get dirt on HYDRA. And let me tell you I have a ton. " She said holding up a hard drive.

Nick and the others listened to Anne's story. "I remember him, he's saved even my ass a couple times once or twice...sorry," he replied when seeing the glare on Anne's face. Even though Skye and Andrea didn't need their mother anymore, she still was a mother after all. "You do realize that will only work the first few times though, right?" He asked as he was taking about the glare. "Now then...what exactly is on this puppy?" he asked, completely curious.

" I know that. That's what Dragon told me. He has his men inside HYDRA gathering information. He hates them as much we all do. The hard drive contains locations to HYDRA research facilities that also may be their bases. Where their main base is I haven't been to find. It also has where HYDRA has sent Roger over the last 8 years and possibly where he's headed ." Anne said knowing that soon she might have have to fight her own husband.

"Interesting..." Steve said when he heard the news. "So...when are we going down the rabbit hole, sir?" He asked Nick. And while the director told him that he didn't have to call him that, Steve just responded that old habits were hard to break.

"Soon. Anne can you contact your men? I don't want them to be caught in the crossfire unless they want to help us take down these bases."

"I'll contact them Nick. No doubt they'll want to help SHIELD out once they know I'm working with you. They trust my judgement on these sort of things." Anne said. " Though first we need to prepare for a battle here. I received word that HYDRA was sending a team this way and I know Roger is with them." She said and hung her head. " I still don't think HYDRA is our main concern right now." Anne said knowing that there had been rumors of a powerful man on the Earth.

"Could it be this Loki?" The Doctor asked having a feeling the artifact was in danger. "May I see the artifact ? I may know which one was given to Odin." He said since the self he tried to forget had coincided using it to end the Time War , before deciding on The Moment.

"Clint, could you go get the artifact in question please?" Nick asked once everything was said and done. The Director of SHIELD was curious as to what the Doctor thought it was. Once Hawkeye retrieved the artifact, then they could understand just what exactly it was they were handling.

The Doctor paled when he saw the crystalline artifact and knew what it could do. " This is called The Oracle and was created by Rassilon. To those who don't know, Rassilon is an important figure in Gallfreyen history. He was basically the one who invented the TARDIS. This artifact can control a large population of people in doing the will of the holder. I know an old friend of mine and one time companion was the one who gave this to Odin for safe keeping. She feared someone more fearsome than the Daleks would use it on the universe. " He said wishing he knew who that person was.

"Can it be destroyed?" Nick asked.

" Maybe. It's a dangerous task though. This was made with a neutron star much like Thor's hammer Mjolnir. But I can seal it in a hidden void in a black hole so it will never be found." The Doctor said hoping that would work.

"That might be for the best, unless the TARDIS can be used even within a black hole. It sounds like one of those Apples of Eden from that Assassin's Creed game series. What?" He asked once everyone stared at him for playing a video game.

" It can, but is risky. I am sure I will be able to seal it. " The Doctor said and was glad he could help.He did wonder more about Anne but had a feeling his future self would be the one to find that information out.

Loki had heard about the new artifact that the Avengers had and had been trying to find several ways to retrieve it. He had heard that it could control anyone or anything to do his bidding.

" Sir we have been picking up some unusual activity in the air. From our readings we assume it's Thor. " An agent from the observation tower said.

" This will quite interesting. " The Doctor said wondering if Odin had ever mentioned him. They had met in Norway many centuries ago and he had been there to see Vikings.

"Agent, make sure that it's Thor. For all we know it could be Loki trying one of his infamous disguises on us again," Nick Fury said in a commanding voice. He didn't want be fooled by the Trickster God again, not after the events that cost Phil his life...at least seven minutes of his life.

"Doctor, if this is indeed Loki, I need you to be prepared to fight if needed. Perhaps you should get a second weapon to compliment that of your Sonic Screwdriver?" he asked, knowing how versitle the Doctor's device was.

" Perhaps I will. I usually am a pacifist but I have been pretty good with a sword or a gun. " The Doctor said knowing this artifact needed to be protected.

" I have a katana you can use Doctor. " Anne said.

"I can help as well," Leana replied and wanted to fight in any way possible.

" I can too. " Andrea said wanting to be of help.

"You two shouldn't have to though, you as well Skye," Anne said, obviously worried for the three. Two were her biological daughters, and one was a person that she considered her daughter due to the fact that she had risked so much for her firstborn daughter.

" Ladies would you like to work the system in case there is an attack.We don't want to risk a system shutdown like we did during the Battle of New York and more than likely Stark will be here to help us." Fury said and messaged Banner to fly out here just in case." I'm dispatching Doctor Banner in case we need the Other Guy." He said and saw the confused look on The Doctor's face." I'll have Stark fill you in about Doctor Banner. His description is quite accurate." Fury said with a grin and trusted Bruce would be here soon.

"That should probably be for the best girls," Anne said as she held up a hand signifying that she wasn't done yet. "I know you girls are training to be full Agents, and that you're a good fighter Leana, but it would put my mind at ease to know that you all are safe," she added knowing that Leana would protect the two if necessary.

" Anne we need to bring in the others and fill them in on what happening. The Avengers can handle this." Clint said knowing Fury agreed with him.

" Who is this Other Guy actually?" The Doctor asked having an odd feeling all of a sudden.

"Let's just say you'll find out," Natasha said, remembering her run ins with The Hulk.
