Chapter 44

"To be honest, I'm not sure anymore. I thought I once knew. But now," Harry paused as he takes time to look at Coulson. "now I'm not so sure anymore. I've lost so much of myself I've almost forgotten who I was underneath. I guess I never knew who I was in the first place. However, I can tell you this," Harry said as he gives Coulson a strong look. "When the fighting starts, when the war begins, when the blood hits the ground, I'll be there. Whether or not you support me is up to you. But I'll be there, I'll be an Avenger. Perhaps that what I was meant to be in the first place."

Coulson analyzed at him as he folds his hands together on top of the table.

"Let me ask you this, why do you have all these secrets. You do a good job at keeping them hidden." Coulson said.

"The truth, I've learn, can be a terrible thing. Because once you learn something, once you understand what it really is, you can't unlearn it, it's there until the end. The truth can destroy a person. One day, you'll understand why I keep secrets. That day is not this day."

"You know I really wish you would open up. I get the feeling you're never going to say anything." Coulson joked lightly, though there was an undercurrent of seriousness in his words.

"Perhaps your right. All you need to know is I keep my secrets secret for good reason. Because if you knew what I did, you would hide as well." Harry stated.

"I trust you understand, that we're the good guys. Our job is to keep the world safe from the threats of those that seek to destroy it."

Harry smiles as he looks at Coulson. "One day, I'm going to quote that. Then you'll learn, when the truth is revealed, you're nothing but a hypocrite." Harry in amusement.

"I'm sure when that day comes, we're going to prove you wrong." Coulson said smiling confidently.

"We'll see." Harry said.

"Before you go, I want you to look at this." Coulson said handing the folder over.

"What's this?" Harry said as he takes it.

"It's everything we have on you. You said trust isn't a one-way street. Well this is everything we got on you. I hope you can understand, if you are trustworthy, then you have nothing to fear from us."

Harry picks up the folder before looking back at Coulson. "I'm going to go over this, and if I find S.H.I.E.L.D. trustworthy, I'll tell you who I really am." Harry said as he gets up to leave.

"I hope you can trust us." Coulson said. "You would be a great S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent." He added.

Harry walks past Coulson before standing before the door. "Sadly, for you at least, I have no desire to work for S.H.I.E.L.D." Harry said as the door opens and he walks out.

Harry returned to his room and sat down on the bed. He looks at the folder and takes note of how thin it was. He opens it and reads.

It appeared depositing the large sum of gold caused red flags to be raised and S.H.I.E.L.D. was notified immediately. They backtrack his location using satellites and every CCTV cam they could get access to. Taking note that his first real appearance was at a London Internet Café. Harry scans further and was pleased to see they didn't know he was from a parallel universe. He still remembers the warnings Hermione gave him about keeping that part hidden and a secret. It might not end well for him if it was revealed he was from another dimension.

Harry continues to read and took note of how S.H.I.E.L.D. sent agents to keep an eye on him and keep tabs on him as he travelled for two years around the globe. Apparently, they took note of how he was able to bypass customs and travel without a passport. They never got his name until he told Nick Fury. They weren't even sure it was his real name as they put it down as 'alias'. They didn't even have his birthday. Something, he also took note, Nick Fury really wanted.

The rest were things he already knew. His meeting with Sharon Carter, what was said with her meeting with the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. as well as Coulson's assumption on him being an enhanced. Reading through it more, it seemed Nick Fury wanted to meet him after his actions in Los Angeles. Believing he could be a great asset to have. However, they weren't sure on his abilities. Weren't sure if it was enhanced capabilities or technology. It seems right now, they were playing it safe. Trying to get information, yet also trying not to aggravate him. It seems they feared he was also like Banner.

Harry sat the folder down and decided to check in on Stark and Banner. See what they were doing.

Harry arrived inside Banner's lab to see, Nick Fury, Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanoff, Bruce Banner and Thor all at each other's throats.
