Chapter 1
Kellen awoke to a blaring alarm in her small Probationary Agent quarters. She hit the snooze button but knew she couldn't sleep one more minute it was her big day, the day she would join the S.H.I.E.L.D varsity team of not just the top agents but superheroes. She took one last look at the small room that she called home for almost three years. This room is where she dealt with some of her biggest accomplishments and her lowest of life's tragedies. Her hand gently grazed over a fist size dent in her door as she remembered the night Coulson told her the details of her parents deaths. It had been over two years and the murder/home invasion case was still unsolved. The murders were on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list but didn't rank anywhere on S.H.I.E.L.D's priority list. Well the official S.H.I.E.L.D priority list she smirked to herself, closed her door and headed to S.H.I.E.l.D's main conference room.
"Jules' welcome to the big leagues" A loud excited yell came from Clint as she entered the conference room, followed by a slap on the back.
Natasha walked up and gave Kellen a reassuring hug and adjusted her collar. "Thanks mom Kellen whispered and winked.
" Natasha and Clint were like proud parents of Kellen. They had been assigned as her Agent Training mentors and were very fond of their work. It was an assignment Natasha and Clint enjoyed because for one they got to spend loads of time together without questions and two the duty of passing on their skills to the next S.H.I.E.L.D generation was a light to all of their mostly dark assignments. Kellen was their living, breathing legacy and they were looking forward to this day with very un-spy like anticipation.
Kellen looked around the huge conference room and felt a rush of nerves. 'I hope I'm really ready for the "big leagues!"she thought as she made a dash for the coffee. Kellen had spent the last year training and learning from the Avenger members but now her training was over she was expected to hold her own among them.
The responsibility of her work was suddenly overwhelming her and only came to a halt when someone grabbed her coffee. "Thank you, sweet buns" A smile spread across her face and she said "Your welcome, hot lips". Her dear sexually harassing technology, science and everything else she did and didn't want to know teacher Tony Stark stood drinking her coffee. Tony displayed a smile as big as hers and then he proceeded to inform her that they no longer need to heed the student/teacher no touchy rules.
Kellen was laughing at Tony's sick comments when the gentleman of ALL gentlemen walked in.
"Good morning all and congratulations Jules, These are for you." Steve hands Kellen a large bouquet of mixed fresh-cut flowers.
Kellen blushed as she took the flowers "Thank you Steve, They are beautiful."
"Well I guess Steve knows that the student/teacher no touchy rules are over as well. Too late spangles, I called dibs." Tony mocked as he kicked his feet up on the table.
Steve lowered his brow at Tony even if he didn't know what Stark was talking about he was sure it was an insult to him in some way.
Hoping to stop the Rogers/Stark first fight of the day Kellen quickly interrupted the two "Steve would you like some coffee?"
"Yeah that would be great, thank you."
Kellen handed Steve his coffee while shoving Tony's feet off the table. "Fury told you he next time your feet were on anything but the floor you would lose them." Kellen reminded Tony.
Tony shifted in his seat and nodded as he remembered that Fury looked scary and serious when he made that threat.
Just as everyone was getting situated at the table Thor and Loki walked in.
"Good Morning Princes of Asgard." Kellen said as she jump up to get her daily bear hug from Thor and her nod from Loki. "Would you boy's like some coffee?"
After Kellen served Thor and Loki she sat back down, Natasha leaned over to whisper "You are an Avenger now, not a servant. Stop with the coffee serving already."
Kellen obediently nodded and felt Natasha's glare lift.
Banner walked in the room with his eyes focused on Starks new DidyaRead tablet and he instinctively made his way to the coffee pot. He only addressed that there were others in the room when he realized all the coffee was gone. "Hey who drank all the coffee?"
Kellen started to move but felt Natasha's glare of 'don't even think about it' burn into her. A look Kellen had come to heed, since she spent three days in the infirmary the last time she chose to ignored it.
"Ahh umm!" Was the noise Tony made while he drew Banner's attention to Thor's extra large mug of coffee.
Loki smirked because his brother was so oblivious to Stark's pointing and insinuations.
Banner just shrugged and began making a new pot. Everyone just silently sat waiting for Fury to arrive. Today was not just a new day for Kellen but for all of them. The training and teaching period was over, now new assignments were coming their way. Fury had pushed up Kellen's completion date by two weeks for a reason and they all seemed to know it wasn't because Kellen earned early completion. It meant he couldn't allow her anymore time. Whatever the assignment was it couldn't wait.
"Well, well everyone is here on time, will wonders never cease." Fury stated as he grabbed the cup of coffee Banner had just poured himself. "Okay kids here we go." Fury slid file folders across the table to everyone and turned on the large screen monitor.
Banner turned back from grabbing the sugar just in time to see his coffee walking away in Fury's hand. The scientist sighed and poured another cup.
Everyone flipped through the files with the same horrified looks on their faces.
"This guys is a monster" Steve blurted out when he reached the pictures in the file.
