Dragon Of Earth: I have noticed that problem, am trying to fix that problem, hopefully this chapter will be better
Chapter 4
Harry stepped out of the black SUV and looked around, the desert was quiet and deserted, the only building for miles around was the metal one sitting in front of them. He glanced over his shoulder as Coulson stepped out of the passenger side of the vehicle and moved to stand next to him. The SUV turned and began to drive away.
"Well, Welcome to SHIELD" Coulson said with a small smile at Harry's look of complete confusion.
"I thought you said we we're going to a training facility?" he asked as they started towards the building.
Coulson nodded "You will be, if you pass the tests we have for you in here" Harry narrowed his eyes slightly but decided to follow anyway, it wasn't like he had any other option. He had made his choice that morning.
-Flashback-
Harry woke up and rolled out of bed, a quick shower woke him up fully and he made his way through to the kitchen to make breakfast. It was Friday morning, Coulson would be arriving today to take him to SHIELD's training facility, but he wasn't sure what time hence the need for him to be up and about.
He walked down the stairs and stopped when he saw Agent Coulson and another SHIELD agent he didn't recognise standing in his garage.
"How did you get in?" he asked cautiously.
Coulson looked up "We came in through the door, it wasn't hard" Harry narrowed his eyes but he doubted they would say anything else.
"What are you doing here?" Harry asked. Coulson raised his eyebrow in confusion. "What I meant is I didn't expect you to be here so early"
Coulson gave a shrug "We have things we need you to do, people to see, the earlier we get started then sooner we can get it done" Harry nodded.
"Oh Harry this is Agent Paul Allen, he's going to be our transport officer today" Harry nodded in greeting. "Well let me grab my bag, I'm ready to leave"
-End Flashback
Harry stepped out of the lift with Coulson just behind him. He looked around the dark room, it was at odds with the well lit elevator a round table sat in the middle of the room, fourteen empty chairs well spaced around it.
"Harry James Potter from Godric's Hollow England, birth Parents James Charles Potter and Lily Maria Potter" Harry stood there with confusion, the voice sounded like it was asking him if that was him.
"That's me" Harry said cautiously.
The voice snorted "I know who you are, take a seat" the voice said. Harry moved and sat down in the closest chair. Coulson sliding into the seat next to him leaning back and relaxing.
A man stepped out of the shadows, he was tall bald, dark skinned and patch over his left eye. All in all he was an intimidating man. "My name is Nicholas Fury, Director of SHIELD" Harry blinked in surprise he hadn't been expecting to meet anyone of his position.
Fury hadn't stopped talking "You may address me as either Director Fury or Sir nothing else" He waited to see if Harry would say anything. When he didn't Fury nodded and continued
"You are here because we believe you have what it takes to succeed as a SHIELD agent, while you are a member of SHIELD you may not tell anyone what you do is that understand" Harry nodded the nervous feeling he had earlier returning with a vengeance.
"Good, Coulson take Mr Potter here through to the evaluation room"
Coulson nodded "Yes Sir" and stood waiting for Harry to stand which he did after a moment.
Harry followed Coulson out of the room and into a well lit corridor. Coulson noticed the look on Harry's face and chuckled slightly
"Don't worry, he just likes to intimidate new recruits with that dark room"
Harry nodded "Does he meet all of the Recruits"
Coulson shook his head "Only some of them, there seems to be no pattern to which ones he meets" he didn't tell him that all the recruits Fury had personally met had become the best of the best. Harry nodded feeling more nervous than he had before.
"Don't worry, I've read your file, as long as you don't have the need to randomly start killing people you'll be fine" Harry chuckled slightly at Coulson's attempt to calm him down, which when he thought about it was working. The stopped in front of a nondescript door which Coulson pushed open.
"Dr Jazuat, Harry Potter here for his evaluation" Coulson said as he stepped through the door.
"Ah Agent Coulson nice to see you again" Coulson nodded "Mr Potter, please take a seat" Harry nodded and took a seat.
"Right, I'm guessing you've never done this before"
Harry shook his head "Nope never"
Jazuat nodded "Right them, I'm going to ask you a set of questions, I don't want you to think I just want you to answer, don't worry about your answer there is no right or wrong understand"
Harry nodded "I think so" he replied nervously.
"Good, Agent Coulson are you going to observe?"
Coulson nodded "I will do"
Jazuat nodded and turned back to Harry "Well then we should begin" He sat down and opened the folder in front of him. "You have eight seconds.."
Three hours later Harry stepped out of the room, stiff and with a slightly headache.
"You Ok?" Coulson asked, laying a hand on his shoulder.
Harry nodded "I'm just stiff and tired and want to sleep, are all the evaluation's that tiring?"
Coulson nodded "They used to be worse when I first joined"
Harry raised an eyebrow in amazement "So what happens now?" he asked.
"Now you go and relax for a bit, we'll review your evaluation and then if you pass tomorrow you'll have a physical and if you pass that an unbeatable polygraph test to make sure you're exactly who you say you are" Coulson replied
Harry nodded "Nothing to bad" he said with a chuckle.
Coulson just raised an eyebrow "You see if you're still saying that by tomorrow evening" They came to a room, "here you go, you can relax in here" Harry pushed open the door to a comfortable living room and collapsed on a couch.
"How did he do?" Fury asked.
Coulson raised his eyebrow "Any particular reason you're taking such an interest in him sir?" He asked.
Fury looked at him "I knew his father, and if he's anything like him then his son will be one of the best operatives that will ever work for us"
Coulson nodded then looked thoughtful "James Potter worked for us?"
Fury gave a single nod "At the time he was our best operative we hired him straight out of MI6, I just hope his son is half as good as he was" He turned back to the file he had been give. "Now back to Mr Potter, how did he do"
Coulson snorted with amusement "how do you think, there's nothing wrong with the way he thinks, if anything he's to noble, I doubt we'd be able to just point him at a person and say kill, he'd want to know the reasons why, and he's got a personality, a code of honor if you will that I haven't seen since I read Steve Rodgers file."
Fury looked up "We're in agreement then, if he passed the physical and polygraph tests tomorrow he'll make an excellent operatives"
Coulson nodded "I just have one question which academy will you be sending him to?" Fury just gave Coulson a look "Operations of course"
Coulson nodded "I should have expected that"
Fury nodded and stood up "Get some rest, I'll see you in the morning"
Harry pushed himself out of the bed that he had been given for the night, jumping quickly into the shower he woke himself up and made his way down to the training room.
"Ah Mr Potter, glad to see your on time" Coulson said as Harry entered the room.
"So what am I doing?" Harry asked. Coulson grinned and flipped a switch on the wall revealing a large room with a gym, a track running round the outside of the room and an obstacle course.
"Everything is set up Agent Coulson" A man came round the corner.
"Mr Potter, this is Agent Rollins, he'll be running your physical assessment this morning, there's a exercise uniform for you in the changing room"
Harry stepped out of the changing room in the SHIELD exercise uniform
"Is all the clothes you wear black?" he asked.
Coulson shrugged "Most of it, why?"
Harry snorted "Is there a reason?"
Coulson looked confused "Why does it matter? I think its been that way since the organization started" Harry just nodded. It was weird he thought how each force seemed to stick to its own colour scheme.
"Right listen up Potter" Rollins barked. Harry stood up straighter instinctively.
"You will follow my instructions to the letter do you understand?" Harry nodded once "I do"
Rollins nodded in satisfaction. "Good, now first run two miles, eight laps of the track as fast as you can go"
Harry collapsed back onto the same couch he had collapsed onto the day before. Coulson leant on the door frame and grinned at him.
"Still want to say it wasn't bad?" Harry just flipped him the finger too tired to answer.
Coulson laughed slightly "Well trust me when you've finished your training what you just did will be a breeze."
Harry stared at him incredulously. "It's true, I'm even willing to bet on it" Coulson moved and sat down next to Harry
"Here, energy bar, SHIELD special, will bring your energy levels back up so you can take your polygraph, eat up and come meet me in the room you took your evaluation in" Harry nodded and took the energy bar and nodded his thanks as Coulson stood and left the room.
Harry entered the same room he had the day before, and to no surprise found it identical.
"Mr Potter, take a seat" Coulson said. Harry took a seat and Coulson started to attach the polygraph.
He then took the seat opposite Harry. "Do you know how a polygraph works?" Coulson asked.
Harry raised his eyebrow in amusement. Coulson sighed "For this to work, you need to talk you realise that right?"
Harry face gained comprehension "Right Ok, Yes well I know what a polygraph is then"
The pen scratched lines on the page. "Good, now we need to establish a base line, I need you to answer each question yes or no understand?"
"Yes" Coulson nodded glad Harry had caught on quickly.
"Have you ever been married?"
"No"
The questions continued for the next twenty minutes. Before Coulson nodded "Ok good, were done, you can remove the monitors."
Harry nodded and removed the monitor from his arm. Harry stood up and stretched "So what happens now?" he asked.
"Now we evaluate everything you've done over the past couple of days and then we get back to you"
Harry nodded "So back to that relaxation room for me?"
Coulson nodded "I'll come get you when we've made our decision." Harry stood, smiled lightly and left the room.
"So how did he do?" Fury asked Coulson.
Coulson nodded with a smile "He's good, past his physical, not the best physical I've ever seen but good enough and he'll get fitter fast. He's also who he says he is, pasted the Polygraph, but you already knew all this, you didn't expect him to fail did you?"
Fury just gave him a look which Coulson took as an agreement. "So we're going to accept him?" Coulson asked.
Fury gave him a different look "Right, It's my decision since I'm in charge of recruitment." Coulson rubbed his hand across his forehead "So you want to be kept in the loop over his training?"
Fury gave a non-committal shake of his head. "Only his monthly reviews, but I will be keeping an eye on him, I can only hope he can live up to his parents reputation"
Coulson stood "I'll report in, in a couple of days Director" Fury nodded before turned back to the files on the desk in front of him.
"Mr Potter" Coulson said as he came through the door.
Harry looked up from his seat on the couch. "Agent Coulson, is a decision made?" He was trying to contain his nervousness.
Coulson nodded and small smile on his face "You passed all your tests, you've been accepted into the SHIELD Academy of Operations" Harry grinned relief showing across his face. "So what happens now?" he asked.
Coulson moved and sat on the couch next to Harry. "Well now you need to sign these forms" He pulled them from inside his jacket. "What do these forms outline?" Harry asked as he flipped through them.
"Basically they outline that if anything happens to you while working for SHIELD it is your own responsibility and we can not he held responsible for it" Coulson replied
Harry nodded "Well I would have been surprised if you had held yourself responsible." a small smirk on his face, but there was no reaction from Coulson.
Several minutes passed as Harry read over the forms, before nodding "Ok, I'll sign them, do you have a pen?" Coulson pulled a pen from inside his jacket and handed it over. Harry scribbled his signature before handing the pen back.
Coulson nodded his satisfaction. "Right you will have another form to sign when we get to the academy, but there are a few things I need to tell you first, first off training will take 14 months and it will high intensity you will not get to leave the academy until the training is finished unless you are failed, you can not drop out by choice one your in your in unless you fail."
Harry nodded in understanding. "Basically you're saying once I'm in, I'm in for good unless you kick me out?"
Coulson smirked "Basically yes" Harry nodded it was to be expected really. "So is there anything else you want to know?"
Harry shrugged slightly "What happens when my training is complete?"
Coulson nodded, it was a reasonable question. "Once you've finished at the academy you'll be assigned to a level 6 or higher field agent who will teach you how to apply everything you are taught at the academy in real situations. Depending how adept you are depends how long you stay with your Training Officer" Harry lent back and ran his hand through his hair nervously before his face took on a determined look "When do I start?" he asked.
"Well you'll get transported to the academy at some point tomorrow, you'll have the weekend to meet your fellow class members and then you start on Monday"
Harry nodded and looked at his watch. "Well if I'm leaving at some unknown time tomorrow, I shall go and get some sleep, Goodnight" Coulson leant back and watch as Harry left the room thinking about everything he had seen him do after the past couple of days.
