Fury was once more rubbing his head, watching the video of two super-powered brutes slugging it out, this time though it was Harlem. Hulk and the now named Abomination had decided to have a fistfight in a crowded area while General Ross and the military watched and recorded.

If anyone thought Norman Osborn had a hard-on for the super-soldier serum they never met Ross, the man must dream about the damn stuff, Fury thought as he watched over and over the two "men'' smash and destroy anything that came into the path.

Even Banner's blood proved to be toxic. The cleanup crew he'd sent picked up Samuel Sterns falling foul of its irradiated nature. It had taken them a further week to find Sterns. The man's head was massively mutated and before they'd managed to get a bead on his powers, he'd convinced a man to kill himself and another to let him go.

He was now calling himself The Leader, and after a heated exchange, Natasha had been close to putting a bullet in the man's extended skull when Fury stopped her. Now he and Blonskey sat in cryostasis in the Freezer. A high-security prison they had started to build once Spider-man, Venom, and the rest appeared.

Sterns had a lab full of mutated gamma creatures and Blonksy had gone off mission, choosing to become a creature to fight rather than capture Banner. Fury knew with the noise Ross was making, that he'd pull some Washington bullshit and grab them both. Alexander Pierce, the director of the Shield International division, was pushing for Shield, and the international community, to start sharing information about the enhanced around the world.

Fury was brought out of his thoughts by a knock at the door. "Yeah, come" and walked one of his favourite agents. She'd been recruited when they had an ‘incident’ a long time ago, and she'd saved their asses from an invasion, laughingly enough, of not so little green men.

The woman, tall, muscular, even under the uniform. Since he'd seen her last she'd cut her hair, the normally long blonde locks now shorter, in a pixie cut. "Carol? You're back on Earth?" Fury was surprised. Carol was supposed to be out touring the galaxy, only coming back in an emergency and he hadn't used the pager he gave her.

She scowled and nodded, "Yup, gotta problem. Two Asgardians are on Earth and the Nova Corp and few others are looking for them. I'm back just in case it turns bad."

"Turns bad how?"

Carol sighed, "So, they kinda committed genocide, and while normally we don't touch the Asgardians this time, the Prince of Asgard destroyed a planet, one with life, so-" Carol stopped and stared at Fury's desk, "is that? No, who's that?" and she jabbed a finger down on the file Fury was just reading.

Fury shook his head, "another headache, a super-powered asshole called Venom." and before he could stop her Carol grabbed the file, flipped to where Peter's address was, dropped the file and flew out the window.

"Well, that might work too." If Carol went and just attacked Peter for whatever was in the file, at least he'd have an answer. Peter had been hesitant to come clean about the full extent of his powers, and if the others were enhanced. It was all still mainly guesswork and Fury was looking for an excuse to drag him in and stick them all under the microscope.

Carol flew at high speeds through the airspace of New York, if she was right this could stop a war raging on Earth as the allied forces of the galaxy tried to arrest Thor for his actions. The Klyntar were thought to be gone, and while some celebrated some lamented. Noone had the right to destroy another species, no matter what their crimes were, and landing on the roof of the warehouse, Carol weighed her options. Through the roof hatch or through the front door. No, she would try diplomacy first, and only if the boy's mind had been destroyed would she resort to less civil methods.

Carol landed at the gate and pushed the buzzer, eventually it sounded and a young man's voice, "Hello?"

"uh, I'm here for Parker, Peter Parker, I'm from," shit, thought Carol, am I from Shield? "uh, a friend sent me, a," crap, I didn't think of an excuse, and as she sighed. "I'm an alien and I want to know about yours," and the gate clicked as the buzzer released the lock.

As she approached the warehouse, the door slowly opened and a rather handsome man stood there, his picture had not done him justice.

"So, explain or leave," his face however was not an amused one. Stupid stupid, Carol thought to herself. She should have prepared better.

"Your species was wiped out, and I'm here to make sure someone doesn't finish the job. Can I please come in? No fighting, I promise."

The young man sighed and opened the door, waving her in.

"Wow, nice place," Carol said. She'd mostly been in spaceships or rough camps as she toured various planets. Sure it lacked the technology she was used to but she could see it was a home, not a place to live.

"Thanks," Peter said, but shook his head, "now, sit and explain." His reply was brusk and he had to be honest, Alien was not exactly what he expected when he found out the origins of the symbiotes.

"Uh, coffee?" Carol asked and Peter shook his head and produced a clean cup and poured her a cup, nudging over sugar and creamer.

"This isn't a social call. If you know what I am then you know that I'm not going to sit back and let someone take things from me." shit, Carol thought, I really should have read the file before flying off. The Klyntar was violent and prone to acts of aggression when bonded, this one was no different than the other reports.

"No, that’s not why I'm here. Look, your home planet was destroyed, the Asgardians took it out and now two of them are here. I'll stay to make sure they don't finish the job and make sure you're safe." Carol explained, but Peter shook his head.

"I don't need a bodyguard, thanks, but uh, what planet? I'm human," Peter explained, so far this had not been productive. "so, why not start at the beginning miss uh?"

"oh, Danvers, Carol Danvers. Sorry, I uh, kinda rushed over." Carol took a breath. "So, your species is Klyntar, originally made as a weapon they freed themselves and set up a homeworld. From there they bonded with, and then stole the technology of other races, waging war on the galaxy. The Asgardians wiped them out and drove them back home, destroying any means to escape off-world until the two princes of Asgard destroyed the planet, wiping out the species."

Shit, take a breath lady, Peter thought, "uh, okay, but I'm not a Klynter or whatever, I'm not bonded with anything, how would that work anyway, if they were all killed?"

"One escaped, the last one and now that's you, so by the authority of the Nova Corps, and by galactic law, I am declaring you an endangered species with full protection and rights." Carol stood and placed her hands on her hips, letting her powers leak out, the glow covering her body and making her hair flicker and dance in the invisible wind.

"uh yeah, no." Peter stood. "Intergalactic space law? Does that even apply on Earth? I mean, I just found out aliens exist, and now I'm expected to follow their laws too? not happening." Peter let Venom flow out, thicking the plates over his body, he towered over Carol now, his muscles bulged with power and his maw split as he grinned at her.

oh shit, Carol thought, that's different.

"Doesn't matter, powers or not, the Asgardians are strong, Strong enough to take out whatever that is," and she motioned to his new form.

Venom shrugged, "we disagree"

"Fine, I'll agree if, and that's a big if, you can go against me. I'm pretty high up on the power scale, and I'm pretty sure I can take both Thor and Loki, so let's dance, or is that package just for show?"

Peter looked down and his symbskin retracted, "uh, what?"

"The muscles thing. The whole package deal with your suit and powers?" Carol looked confused, "Is that not a saying anymore, it's been a while since I was on Earth," and Peter shook his head.

"Oh, it's a saying all right," and as he grew back into Venom, "it just means you were checking out my dick," and he leapt for her.

Carol and Venom rolled along the ground together as Peter grabbed her in a bear hug, squeezing her tightly. Carol was still reeling that she'd said that, and was momentarily stunned as he headbutted her. Unfazed she floated them both up into the rafters.

"You won't win," she stretched her arms and pushed Venoms arms apart. "I'm empowered by a force you can't even comprehend," and once they were far enough apart she pushed Venom back and flew away from him. "I'm too strong," and as Venom landed on a girder, he leapt again and then at her, trying to connect with a punch. Carol sighed and grabbed him, wrapping her arms around him and squeezed him as he had done to her. 

Venom now knew he had bitten off more than he could chew as she crushed him to her, nice boobs though, he thought as the air was crushed from his lungs.

Carol lifted them both up, flying up to the ceiling. "You aren't strong enough to defeat Thor, Venom. You've barely lasted a minute against me and I'm not even trying," and as Venom tried to headbutt her again, she took the blow full on and then smirked at him as it did nothing to her.

"Just, please, stop." Carol thought about just letting go but changed her mind, she wanted to protect him, not smash him.

She lowered them to the ground and letting him go pushed him away from her. "Peter, stop, you can't win and I'm not an enemy." Venom paced back and forth in front of her.

Fuck, Venom thought to himself, she was way stronger than anything he'd fought before and she was right, her heart rate, breathing was steady. She hadn't sweated or was warmer from exertion, and he let the symbskin slip back and turn back into clothes. Sitting dejected he huffed as he grabbed a coffee.

Shit, Carol thought, male ego in need of first aid, but nope, not a babysitter. "Look, on Earth, sure, you're a big badass but in the great beyond, sorry but no. The Klyntar were a threat in groups but on their own, they enhance, not grant huge cosmic powers. You won't win, not every fight." She didn't have time to coddle a crying manchild.

Peter was deep in thought though. She was right and as the Goblin armour was too trashed to use, he needed the protection. "Nah, I just missed feeling your boobs squished up against me," and he smirked. If he couldn't win fairly, then he would fight dirty.

Carol snorted. "Military. You think I've never had some asshole make comments about my boobs? Dream on Parker if you think that'll phase me," and she grinned at him as she drank her coffee. He was a cheeky little shit though, good tactics, powerful. Just not at her or the Asgardians level.

"So, this place yours? And can I snag one while I'm here?" but surprisingly, Peter shook his head.

"Sorry, no room at the inn," he was reluctant to add another housemate, especially a super-powered one. There was also the problem of his pheromone. Carol was cute, muscular, and powerful. He had taken a few liberties while they fought and with his arms around her got a good feeling for her physique. Ticking every single box on Peters 'hot or not table', the blood was already flowing, just somewhere he was trying to stop it from flowing too. Having her around was a temptation he knew he would have problems resisting. Damn, she's amazing though, he thought trying not to stare.

Peters phone dinged as he got a text message through the official Shield app.

Carol Danvers, full Agent of Shield, and now your boss. Kiss her ass, wash her feet, give the woman any damn thing she wants – Fury

A set of orders and a contract was sent and as Peter read it his face fell. As a provisional agent, Fury had placed him under the command of Carol, and he really had to do whatever she wanted. He'd be paid of course but he shook his head and sighed. "so, that one's mine and that one's Livs. MJ lives there, and Gwen and Felicia live there. So, uh, I guess you can take mine and I'll move," and Carol shook her head, four women lived here, never a good thing and she wondered exactly what she's signed up for.

Across New York, Fury laughed as he sent Parker that text, killing two birds with one stone, a pain in his ass was now under surveillance and a superpower was now locatable anytime he wanted. It had been a good day today.
