Chapter Nine

Colonel Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., was working on getting the collective knowledge and resources of his organization ready for a future merging by the order of the nation of the world. Especially the United States. Along with him was his seconds in command, Phil Coulson and Maria Hill, finishing up this work and on to their next.

"What are you working on, sir?" asked the middle age man, unassuming even with his skills. The one eyed colonel turned so his one good eye was looking at him.

"Working on advisory assessments for the government for the superhuman management organization which is going to replace us. Both in structure and membership." he answered as he typed and move on his data pad.

"You're trying for the top job, sir?" asked the one woman with this as she wonder what her bosses plans were.

"Of course, but I'm also preparing recommendations for others. From Alpha, Beta and Gamma. Anyone but Waller." he mentioned to them, his comment having more effect on Hill then Coulson.

"Why not? I find her views on the superhuman pro... issue convincing." answered Hill, nearly spilling how she viewed those superhumans. As a problem to be solved and controlled. Much like Waller. Pointing out the flaws in that position would be hard to Hill to come to herself. Fortunately, Fury had been thinking on this.

"I realize you and Waller share a belief supers need to be controlled and managed, or otherwise imprisoned as criminals. I share more the a little with Amanda as well, being an overly controlling leader who wants results. Waller is an ends justifies the means woman, using whatever method she can think of to ensure a world of peace and safety. The problem is, as much as a manipulator and political animals she is, she can't deal with people. She has the people skills of Henry Peter Gyrich. As she only trusts herself, she is blind to this defect.

Which is why she's going to be a nightmare if left to deal with people who will not deal with her baggage. She would be better put to use with a new Thunderbolts or Suicide Squad. Or as part of a think tank for tactical planning. If we could make her see it would be a better use for her skills enough for her to swallow her pride. Fortunately I don't see the powers that be making a person who could start world war three in the top seat. Not unless they're going throw a stupid phase again."

Phil took this moment to speak up, "So will you be applying for the position, sir?"

"Yes, but mostly because it is expected. Everyone thinks they know me, so they absolutely know I will be fighting for this position. Focusing on me. Not my other suggestions given to the president and world leaders. We'll need someone who can plan for the worse case scenario, adapt when things get worse then that, and can get along with most of the potential assets when needed to lead us. I can do that. So can everyone on my list. From Universe Alpha, Beta and Gamma. Men and women. Gifted and not-gifted. Any one of them will work for the best possible results. That's not what I'm afraid of.

What I am afraid of are those who do not have those qualities being put in charge. Or worse, someone working actively to sabotage our efforts. Any number of the underworld would want our resources, especially our information. It would also be the perfect position to alienate heroes and the government from each other. If the sides of the angels are fighting,.who do you think will be the ones to benefit most from it?

Which is why I have a plan. A wild card no one will see. Already dealed into the game when no one was watching. Hopefully it will be enough to prevent trouble from brewing. Till then we set up the cards to get the hand we need to play."

On the Planet Oa, in the Centre of the Universe...

The Guardians of the Universe were in conference. The topic, the universal fusion and the reaction in regard to the Green Lantern Corps.

"The new recruit class is the largest that has ever been given the enlargement and shifting of the universe. Alien species unknown to the Guardians or the Corps have been included. Many with powers and abilities beyond those of the normal corps. However, we face greater threats then ever before." spoke one of the Guardians as they pointed to holographic images of those threats.

They continued, "The other Corps benefit from the alien fusion from the other two universes, putting their strengths close to ours again. We also have the introduction of other law enforcement groups in space. from the Nova Corps to the Plumbers to the Guardians of the Galaxy. It would make things much easier if they bowed to our superior authority, but they do not accept the obvious. There are cosmic threats like that of the World Devourer known as Galactus and his heralds. Or the Elders of the Universe with their twisted obsessions.

Then the reality manipulators. The Cosmic Cubes, the Infinity Gems, the Celestialsapians. Those who can remake reality and existence with a single whim. Potentially, the greatest threats to our organization. Save for..."

He brings up a picture of small frog-like grey aliens, "...The Galvan. A threat due to their intellect and their mechanical skills. Their First Thinker Azmuth had created many powerful items, include the Omnitrix which he hands over to an undisciplined child. In all likelihood, Azmuth has figure out much of the basics of the power rings and lantern batteries, to understand the basics of the Emotional Spectrum. Mixed with their influence with the Plumbers, they could be the most dangerous non-reality warping species.

The simplest answer is the Galvan must be made to heel before the Guardians and seize the Omnitrix from this Ben Tennyson into our hands."

Another Guardian began to speak, "Except Appa, that would be the quickest way to a war between us and the Galvan. One we may not have the ability to win, even if Mr. Tennyson is not involved. With the potential to bring in others into this war. Especially if they think we are doing this to take power from others.

You are also stressing the threat when there may not be any. Again Tennyson has saved time and space multiple times, yet you see him as a current threat. The truth is unless there is severe force to alter Mr. Tennyson, he should be seen as a non-threat or even an asset. Even if it's not one which we have comeplete control of.

A greater threat is the being who seems to be hunting power rings and their users. Already rumours of missing Red, Yellow, Orange and Indigo rings. We are keeping track of our Green rings, and listening for Blue and Violet rings going missing. Something is after those rings and we should be asking why."

"Perhaps a compromise is in order, Ganthet. Your return has allowed a counterview we needed. The Ring Thief is someone which we are going to have to hunt for. I suggest a team to hunt them, and to improve our relationship and knowledge of other organizations, we should include them even if it's just with reports.

With the Galvan, perhaps we should look into allowing one to enter the Corps or at least work with them or the Plumbers they support? To see what kind of people they truly are before judging.

The final issue with Mr. Tennyson. Perhaps sending a Lantern or Lantern representive to observe him might be the best plan we can have at the moment. He does have a team on his homeworld, a Green Lantern joining would be a potential asset due to power and influence in our universe. Perhaps one which would be more acceptible for the constant observation till we know the potential of this unique young man. Lantern Rrab can be reassigned, or we can allow the Artifical Intelligence known as Aya to go. Earth may allow for the test and study of her developing emotional matrix which was formed from Ion." mentioned another Guardian as to help smooth things over and further a more peaceful solution.

The Guardian known as Appa said, "Your points are logical and efficient. I agree in their use. Do we have any other objects?"

There was no objection and the missions were tabled for later activation.

On Vilgaxia...

Psyphon was working hard on the project his master had given him. Intergrating the AMAZMO, Super-Adaptoid and Bioriods into one series of artifical beings was part of it. So was the building of powers database, starting with aliens on universe Beta. The next steps were the harder part.

"Partical assimilation is proceeding well. The extra time were are taking to update the unknown technologies into the armor's systems has caused no major delay to the project, my master. The Malware Mechmorphic Armor Mark 2.0 will be delivered on time. The only delay of importances is the gathering and analyzing of the power rings and lantern batteries. However, I might have a work around for that." said the black and white stripped being to his green squid headed leader.

"What do you have for me dealing with the Lantern Corps technology?"

"It is quite advance, Omnitrix advance. But more plentiful. Best of all, the rings and batteries are in fact all based on the same technology. Merely the energy it harnesses is what separates it from other devices of the same type. Therefore, we just have to reverse engineer the energy harness power and then discover the differences of frequency between the different lights. Then we could only use the rings we have already harnessed.

The power duplications devices from the Androids and their database of powers has already been assimilated. We are working with samples of the advance technologies of Universes Alpha and Gamma. The Reach Scarb for example." continued the servant as he listed the problems and successes with the project.

"Once you have managed to upgrade the armor, I will be able to use it to conqueror the universe and place it under my heel. Starting with my greatest enemy... Ben Tennyson. And his homeworld, the only world which seems to exist in all three universes. Not random chance if I am right. Earth seems to be the key to the Multiverse, my next great empire. Nor would I be the only one to notice this. Which means I would need to gain control of the planet as soon as possible. This doesn't mean I can use those who wish to control the planet for my own gain.

Perhaps it is time for me to use some of my poltical power as ruler of Vilgaxia, free from bias of our home universe. The fact humans in the other universe had managed to step on so many toes, as they say, will be to my benefit. Convincing many of the great powers of the new Delta Universe that Earth is a threat which needs to be managed should be easy." Thought the Conqueror of Ten Worlds, hoping he could ruin Earth's rep while removing the marks on his own rep.

He summoned a screen which revealed both the upgrading bar of his armor and the poltical environment of this new universe. He also summoned a screen of criminals, mercenaries and others he could use for his goals. While he worked on his power and on his manipulation of empires, the mercenaries he hired would be hunting for the Omnitrix as well as other objects of great power. He considered the idea of using what he had gathered to upgrade those minions, to make them greater threats to his enemies. He began give commands to his computer to make his nightmarish dreams come true.

All across the universe, a number of soldiers of fortune were getting a number of job requests.

Back on Earth...

Waller looked over the members of Task Force X she had already gathered, plus the new recruits she had managed to get out of the various prisons she had access to. Each one of the prisoners had been given an offer. Total pardon for the crimes they had commited if they fulfilled the contracted service under her... or if they tried to escape or defy her, the nano-explosive in their mind would activate. Blowing their heads clear off. Which is how Task Force X got it's other name... The Suicide Squad.

Looking at the force she had gather, she began.

"You have been gathered due to the skills you have being needed for the missions you have been chosen for. At the moment, we need to collect information for the betterment of the country. We need databases hack into and harvested,. we schematics acquired without knowledge and returned, we need more knowledge of the other two universes which have fused into our own. We need it for our own protection, but they are not willing to share. So we must make them share.

We have marked targets for you to hit. We will help you plot out the infiltration of these targets. We are even willing to upgrade or enhance your abilities if it will help. But if you fail in your mission, you will be considered prison escapees who are attacking of your own free will. You will return to prison and the deal will be over. It is vital these missions are kept quiet. We do not need a war between our country and it's different universal counterparts.

The missions have been rated for difficulty, time-sentivities, and value to our government. The higher on each of these points, the more rewards there will be. We hope it will inspire you to perform you missions as quickly and successfully as possible.

We will get the missions done. We will get the information we need. We will be successful. Or else. Do you understand what is required of you? Good. Because as of now, Task Force X is on the job. No screw ups or else!"

She then handed the criminals and villains the lists of who she wanted them to hit. Lists of Plumber bases, SHIELD bases, companies like Stark and Billions, countries like Wakanda and Latvaria, and the bases of superheroes and supervillains. Lists of things she wanted collected like alien technology, super-science created by humans, magical items and spells, items of power and so on. As well as individuals she figured could be removed to her control. Mostly more criminals in the last case, with some non-criminals they would need to be careful with.

All of which would place her in a better position when they need came.

Author's Notes:

A bad case of Writers's and Reality's Block has kept me from working. As well as a need to follow my whimsy. Right now instead of splicing plot hooks, I am working on a major plot. Not to say that I might not use a couple of stand alones or hints at other plot hooks.

I am adding for the moment, a lantern to the team. Memberships of the different teams have been known to rotate, including founding member of the Avenger Hulk leaving after one or two issues. Or how characters on teams might appear on some missions and disappear in others, as the plot needs. The question of who the lantern should be is up to suggestion and debate. Arisia Rrab, or Aya from the cartoon, or another canon/semi-canon is possible. So are non-canon choices or even original characters. I am curious on what you might like or suggest.

I am adding a lantern due to certain elements, as you can guess.

Some of the plot hooks might not involve Ben and friends in the beginning... but it can and will have affects on the world, which affects them. Just wait and see...

If you have any suggestions or comments, please feel free to leave them as long as you are polite and helpful. It goes a long way to getting what you might like then if you just say, "It Sucks".

Thank you and enjoy,
