"Do you know who I am?" Harry asked, intently looking at the African prince.
"Harry Potter." The prince said through bloody lips then looked at Jack. "Jack Daniels and Jenny Summers."
"Uhm, curious. I am glad you are cooperating." Harry said and with a wave of his hand, he healed the man's wounds on the face and got rid of the blood though he left the broken bones. "Why did you attack my family."
"It wasn't my intention. I just...lost myself there during the fight." The prince sighed. "I wanted to capture Ombra and find out why he was looking for Wakanda."
"You nearly tore my throat out." Jack hissed.
"I knew I wouldn't have succeeded from what I know of your skill." the prince replied without missing a beat.
"And just how much do you know about us?"
"Enough to know that you two are more dangerous than you let the world believe."
"But even knowing that..." Harry said as he took a glance at the man's surface thoughts. "...you felt it was a good idea to attack him?"
"I have had problems handling my temper recently thanks to my father's pressuring as well as the effects of the ritual and I keep making stupid decisions while try to prove myself to my father. Why did I just tell you that?"
"A simple spell to lower your inhibitions so you trust us more while encouraging you to be as truthful as possible." Harry stated like it was nothing. "In any case, you attacked my family and that is not something forgiven easily."
"What would you have of me."
"Little Jenny here is obsessed with Wakanda, probably why they ran into you in the first place." Harry said giving the girl a pointed look who blushed and suddenly found the floor interesting. "I want you to give her a tour, nothing much, just show her some interesting things."
"And?"
"What?"
"What else, surely that is not all you are going to ask?"
"That's it really." Harry said as he enjoyed the look on the young Prince's face. "I don't think there is anything you can give me, and you seem like a good fellow so I don't want us to part on bad terms. Hopefully, we can develop something in time but for now, that is all."
The Prince kept looking at him skeptically and Harry just shook his head.
"Obviously, she will be coming with someone to look after her and unfortunately, I have a date so Jack here will have to tag along."
Harry didn't give the younger man a chance to protest as he turned to the other two.
"And you two better behave, I will not have you ruining a beneficial partnership before it even begins."
They gave him a salute and Harry disappeared startling the African Prince. He glanced at the place Harry had just vacated before he looked back the other two, he didn't like their grins a little bit.

"Where are you going? I mean...it's none of my business but I just_"
"It's fine Crystal." Harry laughed lightly. "I am going for a dinner that Jack arranged for me before he left yesterday."
"Oh...uhm have fun I guess."
"There is no fun where I'm going, unfortunately." Harry sighed. "Just a bunch of human peakocks prancing around trying to show that one is richer than the other."
"Why are you going then?"
"You remember our former PA who was also a spy..."
"Yeah, the one you fumbled with."
"I_ Jenny is becoming a bad influence on you." Harry sighed but there was a smile on his face. "Anyway, we are trying to make sure SHIELD doesn't get too nosy in our affairs so we try feed them something to keep them busy while trying to show that we are cooperating."
"What does that have to do with tonight?"
"She is investigating someone who will be at this party and couldn't just go there so she tricked Jack into getting an invitation and the idiot readilly agreed as he knew that he would be going to Africa."
"Oh."
"And speaking of, I was thinking that maybe I drop you there, I am sure Jenny would be delighted to see you."
"I...wouldn't I be imposing on their time?" Crystal asked hesitantly though Harry could see that she was interested.
"Not anymore, they somehow got themselves into a situation and will be visiting some country." Harry assured her. "Now thinking about it, I think you will like it a lot as you will be able to see more of Earth from there than you have before."
He could see that she was hooked with that thought. Not even giving her time to change, he grabbed her arm and concentrating on Jack, he teleported to the tent and immediately left but not before hearing Jenny's squeal of happiness.

"Harry Potter, Co-founder of J-Corp." Someone announced as Harry entered through the double doors leading to the ballroom where most of the guests were standing.
"Well, at least you won't be bored." Natasha commented from his arm glancing at a group of ladies that were grinning at Harry.
"What can I say, I am an excellent specimen." Harry easily replied giving the ladies a charming smile.
"Well, at least you are not going for the modest act."
"It's hard to pull of when I have the most sexy redhead on the planet on my arm." Harry shrugged unrepentantly. "And a natural one at that."
"Are you trying to make me blush Mr. Potter?"
"Only stating facts, love." By this point they had reached the other guests and Natasha was steering him towards someone he wasn't looking forward to meeting. "Surely you know me well enough to know that I don't speak out if turn."
Natasha laughed while shaking her head good naturedly.
"Well, at least someone is having a good time." Harry commented as they reached their destination. "You have yet to tell me why you insisted on me coming."
"All in good time." Natasha replied. "A good evening to you Mr. Stark."
Tonny Stark turned to them and raised his eyebrows before he turned to the men he had been speaking with.
"If you would excuse me gentlemen, allow to have a moment with some more enjoyable company." He turned without waiting for a reply. "A good evening to you too.. uhm how am I supposed to refer to you as again?"
"Doesn't matter, just wanted to introduce you to my former employer."
"A pleasure, Mr. Stark." Harry said shaking the billionaire's hand.
"I can imagine. I have to say you look nothing like your name, Harry Potter."
"Well, you seem to be in one piece, Tonny Stark. You must get that comment alot."
"Not as much as you would think." Stark replied. "I try my best to live up to my name."
"Can't be too hard with you flying all over the place in a shinny tin of metal."
"Can we please leave any shinny possessions out of this conversation!"
"But of course." Harry smiled, liking the man. Natasha had disappeared some time without either knowing. "So, how long did it take you to figure out she was a SHIELD spy?"
"That's ahhh, one embarrassing conversation I would rather not have." Stark replied. "Mind you it wasn't that hard, just embarrassing."
"Understandable, though for someone of your... talents I would have expected more. To think it took you that long, is indeed embarrassing if I do say so myself."
"Your people skills are quite lacking, Harry. I can call you Harry right, and please call me Mr. Stark." Tonny continued. "I think I would prefer to deal with your psychotic friend."
"My who now?"
"Your killer friend? the one who runs around in a creepy suit murdering off highly protected individuals."
"Oh, well he prefers to be called a Hero. A childhood fantasy or something like that. We never got around to discussing his inspiration."
"Fury would like to have a few words with him, and probably you as well." Stark said as he grabbed a glass of wine from a passing Waiter. He took a sip of the wine before he spat it right out. "Where do they buy this... Anyway, my job is to get you two to join SHIELD that is why the sexy redhead over there decided to bring you for this party."
"And here I was, thinking she had missed my company." Harry mock sighed as he saw the woman in question openly flirting with some fat man who seemed to be hanging off every word of hers.
"I don't think they do those, feelings I mean." Stark replied. "You will believe me when you meet Fury."
"Yeah, that is not going to happen any time soon."
"It will." Tony Stark replied seriously. "It is up to you whether it will be as a friend or enemy and take it from me, you don't want SHIELD as your enemy it is not a pretty experience."
Harry appraised the billionaire infront of him for a moment.
"I have no issues with SHIELD." Harry told him. "And I am not looking for enemies, if they let me be, so will I. If they insist on having me as an enemy, well I will have no choice but to be one."
"That is all well and good when you are simply speaking of yourself. Fury is not some goodie two shoes and fighting with him can be quite challenging when you have people you care about."
Harry pinned the man with a stare and Tonny found himself taking an unconscious step back. He hadn't felt like this in a very long time.
"I am told I am a very pleasant person, Mr. Stark." Harry said in a cold emotionless voice. "I can be very unpleasant when someone I care about is threatened. It is an ugly experience."
Harry spun and stalked away from him. Tonny took deep breaths and wiped the sweat on his brow.
"Tonny you're okay?" Pepper appeared next to him looking concerned. "What was that about?"
"That my dear Miss Potts was something I don't want to experience any time soon. Preferrebly never."
Taking deep breaths, Harry enjoyed the wind on his face as he thought of the last time he had been on such a party, back in Italy when they did their last mission. They had been having big plans then, even Jack with his amazing plan of travelled ng around the world and fucking the most beautiful woman in each country.
"Party not to your liking?" Natasha asked as she stood next to him.
"Been some time since I've been on one of these." He answered. "Brings back old memories."
There was a moment of comfortable silence and the slow music filtered from the ballroom to the balcony.
"We were going to retire you know. We were tired of being sent to kill like some dogs given that the targets were no longer what we had been after in the beginning." Harry started. "Me, I was going to spend the rest of my life in some jungle in Wales, Jack wanted to travel around the world and Jake...it was all his idea, the tech company I mean."
"Didn't work well, did it?"
"No, far from it." Harry sighed. "Somehow, they caught wind of our retirement plans and they decided we were no longer useful. Killed Jake on his wedding day and almost got us as well."
"Sorry to hear about that."
"We were like brothers." Harry continued like he hadn't heard her. "A family that none of us ever got the chance to have before and we swore to always be no matter what happened. Jack, Claire and Jenny, that is my family, Agent Romanoff."
The woman startled, clearly surprised that he had figured her out despite the hints he had been dropping since the moment he picked her up from her apartment. Harry turned and dark emeralds met light green eyes.
"Keep my family out of whatever game SHIELD is trying to play with me. I am a very dangerous person, Natasha." Harry told her. "If Fury wants me that bad, let him come and talk to me himself. However, if my family is threatened in anyway..."
With that ominous statement hanging in the air, Harry gave her a nod and walked out of the hotel, he got into his car and soon was speeding his way back to the J-mansion in Queens.
"Wow, that was scary."
"Tell me about it." Clint sighed from Natasha's earpiece. "I had no idea the he could do scary. I thought it was more of Daniels' area of expertise."
"Shows how much we actually know about him." Fury's voice replied. "I think we should back off for now, untill we have got more about him. It would be better if we dealt with Daniels for now."
"I couldn't agree more."
"Agent Romanoff, where are you going!"
"Queens."

Harry sat in the living room of Jack's mansion watching the news feed on the fight between Bruce Banner or the Hulk as they were calling him and another they were calling the Abomination.
It never stopped to amaze him just how much science was capable of. Taking a look at Bruce Banner's profile, he could see that the man was quite accomplished in his field and was probably one of the brightest minds on the planet, right up to there with the likes of Stark.
If that mind was to work in harmony with the being that was the Hulk, he could be a force to be reckoned with. However, from what he could figure out from the reports on the news, the two seemed to be two completely different people. How that happened, he couldn't be sure unless he met the man himself in person and did his prodding.
He was interrupted from his musings when the door bell rang. Putting aside the glass of milk, he walked to the door and raised his eyebrows at the person standing before him.
"Agent Romanoff?"
"Nope, just an ordinary girl trying to make sure that her night isn't wasted completely."
"There is nothing ordinary about you." Harry said as he pointedly let his eyes sweep across her figure.
"Oh, well my ego is suffering right now after you dumped me at the party like that. It could use some stroking."
"Well, come on in then, I am sure I can do more than mere stroking."
The moment the door closed, Harry grabbed her by her slim waist and slammed her onto the door, prodding his body onto her soft but firm one. He wasted no time kissing her pouty lips that had been tempting him from the very moment moment he had seen her that night.
Natasha's arms slithered along his back and gripped his butt pulling him even closer as she ground her core with his swiftly hardening manhood. Even as he deepened the kiss, his tongue exploring the depth of her mouth, he pulled up her dress enough that he could lift her legs and she swiftly wrapped them around his torso.
With a mental command, the zip on the back of her dress lowered as he stumbled his way back to the couch. He threw her when they were almost there and she landed with a slight bounce. He landed on top of her, her legs on either side of him and attacked her mouth once again, this time while one of his hand was caressing her thighs the other was full of a firm breast.
Her right hand slithered in-between their bodies and easily passed the waist band of his sweater pants and grabbed his pulsing hardness. His answering growl seemed to encourage her as she gripped it tighter while she tried to push her breast harder into his hand.
"Someone is frisky tonight." Harry growled in her neck even as he pressed her breast harder.
"And what are you gonna do about it, Mr. Potter?"
"Is that a challenge?"
"Are you up for it?"
Oh Harry was up for it alright and soon enough, Natasha found out that provoking Harry Potter was never a good thing. Then again, it wasn't the first time she had done this as their first round usually happened along those lines and she had to admit that if anything, she had missing what the emerald-eyed man was capable of.

"Are you telekinetic?" Natasha asked propping herself on her elbow as she watched Harry dry his hair with a towel.
"Something like that." Harry replied not even pausing. "How did you come to that conclusion?"
"I have seen you move things without touching them though there had always been an explanation after I had thought of it." Natasha said and Harry sat back on the bed with only the towel on his shoulders on him. "And then last night, you took off my dress without you touching it as quite remember how occupied they had been."
Harry observed her and she glanced away from his unsettling gaze, unfortunately her eyes landed on his physic and she let her self enjoy the moment as her eyes travelled from his chest to his toned stomach and landed on his manhood.
"I wasn't trying to hide it that much really." Harry said not noticing her observations. "It was bound to come out sometime though I must admit I am quite disappointed it took you this long to notice."
Natasha felt her cheeks start to flush and she suppressed it easily from years of practice. Harry had a tendency of making her fell like a little girl if he wished.
"I can't blame you though." Natasha squashed the relief she felt at hearing his voice. She started when she realised his face was right before hers. "I am pretty distracting, at least people keep telling me that."
And he was kissing her. She eagerly reciprocated, leaning back on the bed as he easily settled on top of her. She let out a moan of disappointment when he released her lips only to gasp in excitement when she glimpsed his eyes. She knew that look, he always had it when he was just about to do something no man had ever managed to do to her. She could feel her center becoming very wet in anticipation.
Harry grinned at her and his tongue flickered out in a manner that reminded her of a snake. He let it pass over her hardened nub and Natasha arched her back trying to push it into his mouth but the idiot just pulled back. She made to push his head onto her chest but some invisible force seemed to grip them together and pinned them above her head. Her hips buckled in excitement but the moment was broken when her cell vibrated on the stool next to the bed.
Harry laughed at her groan of annoyance as he got off of her. "You may want to answer that, I doubt Fury would have let us have another amazing moment."
"Shut up!" Natasha growled as she glanced at the caller ID. "Romanoff."
"Where the hell are you, we have been trying to reach you for over an hour!" Fury barked and she winced at the loud voice.
"Er..."
"That was enlightening, get your ass in New Mexico ASAP! We have a situation." And with that, her boss hung up.
Harry snickered at her and she threw the phone at his little smug face. The cell stopped mere inches from his face and without him touching it, it floated back to the stool and settled down.
"Wow." Natasha breathed thinking of how useful an ability like that could be. "You I will have to tell Fury about this right?"
"That I turned you into a mewling mess for the whole of last night."
Natasha rolled her eyes at his snickering even as a single passed through her abused center.
"About your abilities, I mean."
"That's your job." Harry shrugged carelessly even as he pulled on a pair of trousers. "If I hadn't wanted SHIELD to know, I wouldn't have let you find out."
"This will make them want you even more." Natasha said as she got up as well, enjoying the way Harry eyed her figure.
"I don't really care what SHIELD wants, so long as they keep my family out of it." Harry told her. "What you have seen so far is nothing compared to what I am truly capable of. And while I prefer to keep my abilities to myself, I won't hesitate to use them if I am pushed."

THREE DAYS LATER
"So he is a God?"
"Something like that."
"I hate it when you say 'something like that' it feels like you don't want to answer my questions." Jack huffed and Harry smiled to himself.
"Not all the time, I assure you." Harry said and Jack rolled his eyes. "Anyway, in my world we knew that Asgard was one of the first settlements of magicals, right after the age of elementals. We knew that magic kept evolving with time."
Harry paused, unconsciously slipping into his teaching persona.
"We are not sure what was there before the elementals but those were the first magicals in recorded history. Elementals were powerful, unbelievably so that those who lived around them thought them gods."
"You mean, like you?"
"I am no god, Jack." Harry said seriously. "However, I know for a fact that an elemental would wipe the floor with me without lifting a finger."
"Wow." Jack breathed in surprise. He knew Harry was capable of doing anything, that was a fact. He had no doubt that if someone hurt Jenny, he could obliterate the entire planet just to get to them because he was capable of doing that. Imagining someone who could beat up Harry was impossible.
"The problem with them was that they became greedy for power and tried to conquer the world, led by two of the most powerful ones who also happened to be twin brothers. They collected quite a following, both in the magical and mudane settlements, followers who worshiped them and later came to be referred to as Zeus and Poseidon."
Jack gaped. "You mean... they were just wizards?"
"Ridiculously powerful wizards but yes, the Greek gods were wizards."
"And how about Asgard, where does it fit in?"
"I am not sure about this world, but clearly it is different because in my world, Asgard was extinct." Harry stated as he stared at the object on the tab. "It was destroyed by some monster due to a prophecy referring to Ragnarok. Like all prophecies, the more Odin did to try and avoid it, the faster he made it to arrive."
He had just given Jack the full history of Asgard from the reign of Odin to Harry's favorite Norse god Loki, to Odin's daughter and finally to it's destruction as it was documented. Harry had been fascinated by the Asgardians during his travels with Luna as the girl seemed to have an instinctual grasp at anything Norse related. Reading up on the two brothers he easily found that Loki was definitely his favorite as he reminded him so much of his father.
If James Potter was a Slytherin, that is.
"There is no mention of Asgard or Odin, or even his kids." Jack stated. "As far as anyone is concerned, there were never any Norse gods in the history of Earth."
"It's very curious indeed." Harry said zooming in the live feed on the tab as a figure seemed to detach itself from the shadows and appareached the center of the clearing. "Which makes the appearance of Mjölnir quite... worrying."

AN: Hey guys, it's been quite some time. This one is quite brief and rushed, hopefully it's good enough.
So, I am as good at romance as J. K Rowling, which means not at all. This is not a romance fic so if you want Harry and Natasha dancing around each other as they slowly fall in love, well you are reading the wrong fic. I haven't written a sex scene, ever. I decided to try my hand here and will be progressing a bit further for every scene I write. Hopefully you like it.
