"No had claimed to be his brother's acts.I'm sure he had taken care of the situation on his hand with his,fellow vikings buddies from his world that he refered to as Asgard sir."
Fury closes the interface windows, "How's you and your men? Don't tell me anything about not being okay because I would hell to that and the Councils on the line!" He flips over the new files that he had received.
"I'm fine sir but on the other hand,some of my men needs medical attention but not to worry.I had Sitwell on the course before I left the base back in New Mexico."

They both spent their quality time together over the cafe',talking about the latest issues which bores Kori to the point that she can't though so,she always favors to see Coulson hype all the way like gazed at Coulson and literally smiled all way,nobody would ever witness Coulson's childlike attitude and reactions over a hero he fans over both chat all the time,enjoying their would be last tea time together.
Coulson broke into a kiss and Kori returned it 's already in love with him ever since they graduated their college days, gave her a hug and whispers a few words before they breaks off.

"He was murdered by our fugitive,Loki Laufeyson which happened to be Thor's brother and the one who caused the total mess to the entire city...He was dead before we could gave him the medical attention he needed...He died on the spot... He choose his own act which-

"Here...You might need it...I'm sorry for your lost...We all did mourn him...He's a good person and an agent back at S.H.I.E.L.D..." Hills handed out a piece of paper with an adress block and a time tentative on it to Kori. "You can come over and pay Phil your last respect...We'll be waiting for you..." She hugs her one more time and asked Hills to not to tell anybody that she'll will come over to Coulson's like to keep all by herself and only Hills knew about it.

She watches as some people pay their respects by putting flowers on the the grave,shoves dried leaves away from the tombstone and it's a surprise that it was Agent Barton who was busy working on that while on the other side,Agent Romanov cradle two bouquet of flower that might been then caught a glimpse of Stark and ,standing besides him with a gloomy somewhat adjust his shades and spoke with a few gentlemen,probably the agents who are working with Coulson during his living .Banner then approaches Agent Romanov and helps her to hold the other bouquet of the flowers.
"Strange..." Kori said. She turns around,hoping to find someone who she had expected of waited for the others to slowly wanted to have some time of her then,she can finally pay her fullest respect and visit Coulson for the last time.
She walks to Coulson's grave and literally kneels down a bit,touching the grave's tombstone."Hey...Sorry I'm late... I was here ever since in the morning...Just...Not fancy having people all around...It's a stuck-up.. And it'll be a trouble if I stumbled upon that rich bastard...You know that I never was adored him,right? -Perfect-Me...hehehe..." Kori smiled grimly. "Oh Phil..." She tilts her head down,holding back those tears in silence.
"Miss Greyson?" A gentle voice breaks the looks up and to finds Captain Steven Rogers was at the back,confusion all over his face. "I am Rogers," Steve offers a hand. "Steve Rogers."
Kori stands up and shakes it. "Kori, Kori ,it's been a while since I last heard from you..."
"Much to your knowings,I'm as well,Miss Greyson...Phil is a hero...Not us...His sacrifice pays off...All of us needs to pay our deepest respect but I'm ought to pay my respect even more..."
"That's because he keeps adoring you all the time, don't have to feel bad about yourself and so does the just...needs to leave that early... It can't be helped..." Kori replied straightly. "I believe that one day,he'll surely be a hero...and... How he surprisingly proves it... If only I could tell him how proud I am..." Kori's words trails away.
"We have a lot of things in common,Miss had told me about you. I might as well heard it since that you,are his most important person in this world where I'm actually second after yourself... I never thought he could spoken that out loud and that is why,I adores him as much as he adores me." Steve steps a bit and crouched over the slowly picked the dried leaves that were falling from the tree away.
Kori puts up her blackglasses and slowly crouched down besides hold his hands and smiled warmly over Steve's gaze. "I guess,some people doesn't know went to stop being a hero,right? Because when they do,they will leave great scars over the people that they felt precious of and when they ACTUALLY do,they will always remains as a hero to everyones' hearts and souls,as if they were watching us from the Heaven..." Kori stands back up and put her hands together on her chest,letting the smooth wind blows over her face gently,as if an invisible hands wipes away her overflowing tears where she never was saw that coming along.
Steve looked at her,with a determined look,he stands up besides her and said that Coulson are always with in him because,He lives.
Thank you Kori...For everything...For Everyone... Thank you...
A sudden breeze went by,leaving the two with a wide smile that will never be forgotten~
