The Sage of the Mind: Chapter 84 [November 2010]
Manhattan
–Random Beautiful Agent–
Well, this was scary. And also odd.
Oddly scary, actually.
She was currently clad in the skintight jumpsuit given to her as standard SHIELD gear, with enough pockets to fit in the entire contents of her purse, which was a true achievement but it also meant that it was supremely…displaying.
Now, don't get her wrong. She loves the attention her body gets but only when she demands it. Consent was a big thing.
Unfortunately, the suit was also one of the few things capable of protecting her from any fucker who had the guts to take on a SHIELD agent. Now granted, she was not the highest ranked SHIELD agent around but she would like to think that her training, however brief it might have been in the SHIELD academy, was not in vain.
She tried to get some sparring partners but due to her near permanent posting up here in Manhattan, she did not get any interaction with the rest of the SHIELD agents. Oh, she knew that it was just an excuse.
In the beginning, the higher ups might have tried it as a honey pot exercise but seeing that it had failed utterly, mostly because of her own inability to stop herself from fainting at the slightest shock, but also because the Invisible Man had shown no interest in her.
Also, what were they thinking? He was THE Invisible Man. The man could have any girl he wanted in the entire country, or even the world, so long as he demanded it.
She knew her friends would jump at the chance, even the Mormon ones, just so they could have the clout of sleeping with a godlike entity.
Later on, once it was established that the Invisible Man had no interest in her, she was only given to stay here because they had all thought she was compromised. So, this was just a long experiment to see what would happen to an individual who spent a long time under the Invisible Man.
That is why the SHIELD HQ had to be moved, because of the man's influence potentially tampering with SHIELD agents.
That was weeks ago, when SHIELD wasn't even sure if the man was even a human or not.
Now? After the Tentacle fiasco, they knew for certain that it was a man. And quite a powerful one at that too.
She shivered as she could still feel the energy from that night, the overwhelming white and orange still made her tingle.
While the official wait time for him to recover from his injuries was given to be a week, all SHIELD agents along with most of the law enforcement of the city were warned beforehand to be ready, in case he doesn't show up.
Crime was already up drastically but still manageable, atleast the ones that could be traced. But if the criminals came to know that the Invisible Man was not coming, it would be pandemonium.
For one, most of the rich people lived in the city. They also loved the fact that they could roam out and about at three in the morning with no security in sight and with all the freedom they could want for themselves, without ever having to worry about their kids and families.
And now that same safety was taken away from them, even temporary as it was.
As a result, private security companies were having their own windfall as thousands of security personnel flooded the city to create a security detail for all the VVIPs of the city.
The crime hit the stores the hardest. Now, the stores themselves were more than secure financially, perks of being in Manhattan before the Invisible Man began his operations, but their security was not upto the mark.
It would have been an issue before but with the greatest surveillance system in the world guarding them at all times, people had grown complacent with their security, allowing even a single slightly armed thief to rob mid sized stores.
With the NYPD already stretched thin, it was only a matter of time before SHIELD had to move in to secure the high priority assets in the city.
She was currently on her break, as she was allowed to patrol the city along with her seniors from the academy under the garb of US Homeland Security, helping bolster the safety net of the NYPD.
The members of NYPD themselves were working very hard, to the bones actually, because the higher ups of NYPD were pressuring everyone to prove that NYPD was the actual protector of the city.
Oh yeah, she was sure that it had nothing to do with the consecutively falling budgets for the NYPD, for every quarter since the Invisible Man came on the scene.
"*Sigh* That's the stuff," She sighed in relief as the hot cocoa hit her, warding off the sleep that was threatening to creep in after a grueling 4 hour patrol.
What? It might not sound much but for the past year or so, all she had done was some light cardio in the safehouse, and ordered all the food she wanted from any restaurant, all paid for by SHIELD, ofcourse.
Her next patrol was scheduled in less than 2 hours.
Well…"Time for a nap then," She muttered to herself as she shed off the uncomfortable uniform, on top of which she had to wear the Homeland Security suit as well, and then sunk into the comfy bed that she had ordered for herself from the SHIELD canteen.
It was ridiculously cheap in that store and she had not wasted a single moment as she splurged her entire monthly salary on a mattress.
Well, she had not used a penny from her salary for years now, courtesy of SHIELD paying for everything.
Her eyes grew heavy as she thought of the city and what would happen to it if the Invisible Man didn't come back.
Sure, the rich and the powerful would be more than alright. It was the little people she was worried about, like herself.
She was not super spy agent material. She was just some lateral hire, who managed to be both beautiful enough for the honey pot trap, and also athletic and morally flexible enough that she could pass the rigorous training course of the SHIELD academy.
____xx___
When she woke up, it was already dark.
"Shit!" She swore as she sat upright and then immediately regretted it. Damn her iron deficiency.
She looked outside and saw that it was completely dark, took her phone and sighed as she realised that it had been 2 hours since the patrolling had already begun.
Why did she have to oversleep at such a critical moment?
Her job was in jeopardy, if anybody had not been clued in on that yet.
If the Invisible Man did not return on schedule, she gave herself a week, maybe two before she was transferred somewhere else but she knew she would not survive that.
So, the moment SHIELD tried to transfer her, she would quit. Now, she had substantial savings but that did not mean that she was not afraid to lose her current job.
She unlocked her phone as a barrage of notifications hit her phone all at once, as soon as it was removed from aeroplane mode.
Her eyes widened as she saw a series of Instagram posts about the events that transpired while she was asleep.
"YES!" She cheered as she threw herself back into the mattress as she began reading through the series of articles that had since been published.
The Invisible Man was back!
She wouldn't have to move now!
She squealed into the pillow as she felt an invisible load finally lift from her shoulders.
"Oh crap." She muttered as she saw her immediate supervisor calling her.
She was so busted…..

The Sage of the Mind: Chapter 85 [November 2010]
Manhattan
–Axle Riddle–
Alright, it was the last week of November.
Things had almost totally spiraled out of control but somehow, this wild train had been brought back on track. He had never expected his powers to fail him that day, even against a foe like the Guy Below.
In his defense, he had simply never expected the guy to be able to influence the material plane so drastically, but that was just his folly as he expected one of the strongest beings of the Marvel Multiverse to not have a way past all the defenses that must have been created in his name.
After his announcement of return yesterday, in the form of a crime free Manhattan, the general public had gathered for a short speech by the Mayor who had been over the moon that the Invisible Man was back, on time as well. People gathered for the short speech that the Mayor gave about fighting crime, rising incomes as well as prosperity for all of New York, as the economic benefits of Manhattan continued to spread to other boroughs as well.
Well, that was pretty much the truth. Manhattan these days was filled with millionaires, multi millionaires, hundred millionaires and billionaires.
These people were not going to work in shops, or as cooks, or as waiters, or do any work really. The millionaires were mostly because of their property rates shooting up, but many of them had also emigrated to Manhattan because it was the number one safest country in the world, especially with the generous Immigration policy that the country had.
New York's tax coffers had never been full. But that came at a cost, as he had his congregation hackers (yes, they also hackers between them) make sure that every penny was accounted for, as he did the same for the account books of the soup kitchens. Then, whenever he found an anomaly, he went to the Mayor, who immediately sweated buckets and fired someone.
This back and forth went on for a while before the Mayor himself stopped any such attempts happening on his side, at which point, he gave the Mayor a body tune up, cleared his blockages, reoriented his muscles and bones, cleaned out the tar from his lungs, the standard clean up.
That, along with the stick in the form of an uber powerful person chasing after you, had been enough to ensure the Mayor's cooperation in making sure that the vision he had for the city was fulfilled.
It was ridiculously easy to lay down infrastructure for the city, for him anyway but he had never really expected to take the jobs from the blue collar workers. No, nowadays, he just made their jobs easier.
Safety was paramount and he had seen some of the workers joke around on skyscraper cranes because they knew that the Invisible Man would catch them, even if they fell down from such fatal heights. He made sure to only grab them at the last moment so that they knew the value of precautionary safety.
The same abilities also made sure that Manhattan also had a vibrant Warehousing zoning section. It was just a large empty space with large warehouses with nothing in it. He had made sure that all the warehouses were connected, the space was clean, and companies came pouring in to store their stuff so that their rich clientele in MAnhattan could get everything they wanted as soon as possible.
That was also where the Warehouse housing the experiment was.
Betty and Bruce also used to live here, until the day before when he just licked them up and deposited them back into their, now cleaned, apartment, along with some Chinese takeout.
The couple had been very thankful, and it looked as if an invisible load from Bruce's shoulders was lifted as both of them snuggled to sleep.
Ofcourse, this was only done after he had received confirmation from the Ancient One about the seal's total closure and the loophole that the Guy Below used to enter the material world was closed up, courtesy of the Vishanti.
Also, according to the Vishanti, the Guy Below was unlikely to try again so soon but they would have to maintain a certain level of vigil even after Baby Banner was born.
Also, regarding the experiment, he could see that they had some sort of breakthrough because he was getting confused about the testing that Dr.Cho was doing.
So, he made his trusty paper avatar and had it manifest right outside the Warehouse doors. THe much more reinforced warehouse doors. Hmm, they must have improved security in the week he was gone.
But to be honest, it might as well not exist in the face of someone as powerful as the Guy Below but it was okay if the extra perceived security made them feel safer inside the office.
The doors beeped and then opened up, revealing three layers of doors, all reinforced, as Tony stood in front of his paper avatar with a smirk on his face.
"What are you laughing at? You couldn't even join the fight because your girlfriend didn't let you come." He laughed his ass off as he saw the smirk being wiped off Tony's face in real time.
"Alright, someone is grumpy. Mood swings?" Tony mumbled as they entered the warehouse, the sounds of the heavy door closing up behind him as Jarvis was probably coordinating everything in the warehouse.
"I am surprised SHIELD allowed you and Jarvis anywhere near their classified and probably stolen technology." That drew odd looks from the nearby SHIELD agents as well as scientists but that was true and he didn't really care about their opinions all that much.
"Yeah, they were reluctant at first but then, in a surprising turn of events, Bruce actually put his foot down and made them see that it was beneficial to listen to someone who could curp stomp buildings." Tony's face was so happy at the mention of the aforementioned curb stomping that Bruce did on SHIELD's security protocols.
Fury must have been pissed.
Ah, Chaos, he could just smell it.
"That's great. I was just wondering what the hell Dr.Cho is doing. I don't remember testing anything on animals being scheduled." He wondered out loud and if it was even possible, Tony's smirk widened even further.
"Ah! Let me show you." Tony said mysteriously before leading his paper avatar to the lab where Dr.Cho was currently slicing off a tail of a mouse before inserting the Vibranium fibres inside the mouse.
"Dr.Cho, the boss is here to check on your work." Tony obnoxiously announced before making a mocking bow at the paper avatar that followed him inside.
"Ah, the Invisible Man, I am glad to see that you have recovered in time. We will be commencing the operation soon enough. I suppose you want to see the test results. Just a moment." Dr.Cho said before she took another pair of fibers and inserted them right above the stump of a three legged dog.
That poor thing.
Atleast he knew that Dr.CHo did not cutoff that limb, otherwise they would be having some real problems in the lab, especially with what he knew about South Korea and their choice of meats.
Then, as if a spell had been cast, and the dog had suddenly gained a healing factor, he could see the stump bursting apart in real time. It was obviously painful but he could see the healing process happening, beginning from the area where the fibre was inserted.
"How did that happen?"
"Oh, so your lady friend didn't tell you? Huh, wonder why." Tony commented from the side.
Obviously, he realised that the Bald headed Sorcerer did something but didn't tell him about it.
"Yes, the fibres now possess life giving properties. This is revolutionary. With just these fibres, we could upend the entire healthcare system. Imagine the amount of lives you could save if you just distributed these.."
"Whoa. Whoa. Whoa! Slow down there, Doctor. Firstly, it is made of VIbranium, that stuff is as rare as I am. Also, we are not going to go around trying to upend the US healthcare system. That is a fast track way to get yourself killed." Tony warned her darkly, and it was true.
Unless you had someone backing you with the power of an entire nation behind you, US conglomerates could not be fought. Not in their own game though.
He realised that it had something to do with CHI. Also, the Ancient One had already told him that the delivery would be successful.
Was it because of this?
"Also, how did your friend know what the baby's position will be at the exact moment of the delivery? It is as if she can see the future." Dr.Cho continued to gush about the marvellous abilities of the Ancient One.
Ofcourse, she would be awesome because she was the bloody Sorcerer Supreme.
The silence in the wake of Dr.Cho's statement was deafening as Tony immediately whirled around on him.
"What! She can see the future? What. THE. FUCK!" Tony swore as he immediately dissolved into fits of babbling scientific terms that he had no knowledge of.
He could just imagine that old woman, sipping tea, and enjoying his misery, not with a full blown out laughter but a subtle smirk on her lips.
