Queenie: Hello, dears, I just wanted to remind all of you that I wanted to change up two of my Harry Potter crossovers. Like my HP/True Blood crossover and HP/Twilight crossovers. And I have an idea for at least one of them. I'm thinking of taking my HP/TB crossover and making it a HP/DC (comics/universe) crossover. I mean, I have this PJO/Marvels crossover, so I thought since DC has all these movies coming out that I can do a story with them. So this is what I kind of have planned right now.

Isadora Malfoy is now going to be living in Smallville where she'll meet the Kents. She and Clark are who I'm going to pair with, but there's going to be a bit more drama in their relationship than some of the others pairings I've done. Like, Lois Lane slightly getting in between Isadora and Clark in the future. And it's going to be a bit darker than my other stories. I just thought it'd be something new to try, and I hope you like where I go with it once I get to truly start it.

As for the HP/Twilight crossover, I'm not sure what I'll change to it yet, but I'm open to suggestions, so please send them. Thank-you.

Now, on with the chapter. I hope you like it.

TWO YEARS LATER:

"Will someone tell me how I ended up in Brazil again?" I asked.

I then swatted away another mosquito off my neck. It's been two years since I've joined the Strategic Homeland International Enforcement Linguistic Division, which was now shortened to S.H.I.E.L.D. I became a field agent not long after I joined, and was assigned Phil as my handler. Of course, that got him the nickname of Momma Phil, which he doesn't like, but has accepted since I refuse to drop it.

I've also been taken under the wing of Clint Barton who I know saw as almost like the father figure that I guess I've needed for a while. Natasha had taken awhile to get close to me, but now we were like sisters. Then Fury is like that uncle that seems really rough around the edges, but everyone respects him at the same time. Then Maria Hill is like that snooty cousin that I never ever wanted, but got stuck with anyway. She's way better than Annabeth at least.

Over the few months I've been an agent, it came out what I was when the damn Minotaur attacked during a mission. I took it out, but then I had a lot of explaining to do. And that explaining took place in an interrogation room, go figure. I think Fury likes putting me in those kinds of rooms. Not sure though. But I finally came clean while expecting them to freak out or something. However, Fury and my new friends took it better than I thought, and Fury decided not to report to the council what he found out about me. He hadn't even put that information in an official file in the S.H.I.E.L.D, which I was grateful for.

The missions continued after that incident with some monsters popping in here and there, but it was easier to handle them though since I was more prepared. And now I'm on another mission that wasn't exactly something I was liking so far.

"You're there for recon, Agent Cortez." Sitwell reminded me through the comm. "We need to confirm that Bruce Banner is in the area, understand?"

I sighed wishing Bruce Banner had chosen a less bug infested location to keep a low profile.

"Yeah, I understand." I said. "I'll see if that tip of him being here is true. Once I do that, I'm to return to base."

"That's right." Sitwell replied. "Now, it's best to maintain radio silence for now. Banner knows how to look for people speaking on a comm."

"Well, if it means I don't have to listen to you in my ear all day then I'm all for it." I said. "I mean, hate to break it to you, Sitwell, but you don't have the type of voice that a lady wants being whispered into her ear with sweet nothings."

I could practically hear Sitwell rolling his eyes, which brought a grin to my face.

"We'll be in touch once your mission is over, Agent Cortez." He said before cutting off communication.

I chuckled sure that I had annoyed him. He'd probably tell Phil all about it later. I then looked around trying to see if I could find this Bruce Banner. Honestly, I didn't see why Fury wanted to find this guy. I knew it was for this General Ross guy who apparently was part of the project that altered Banner's D.N.A to turn him into the large hulk like beast. I also heard he wanted to try and make more like Banner…just more controlled. Like a super soldier or something.

I didn't think it was a good idea for S.H.I.E.L.D to be involved with someone like Ross. He was bad news for sure. I was able to tell the moment I set eyes on the guy when Coulson introduced me to the man to let him know I'd be the agent on this task. They just needed confirmation that Banner was here before Ross took over. I didn't like the thought of Ross getting near Banner. If Ross got what he wanted, who knew what might happen.

I merged in with the people of Brazil while keeping as casual as possible. I was good at blending in, which is probably why I was chosen for this assignment. I worked my way towards the factory where I heard Bruce Banner was supposedly sighted. It was around time that people were clocking in, so hopefully I'd get there in time to see if Banner was just getting in. Once I got near the factory, I ducked into a narrow passageway between buildings. I found a way to climb up to the top, so to look down at the people below.

I sat down on the edge of the building much like I do on every building I ever climb up on. I got the habit from Clint who always liked to perch on the edge of buildings no matter how high they were. As I was looking down at the people below, I saw a man wearing a hat going by, and he quickly gained my interest. I tilted my head wishing he was facing me, so I could get a good look at his face. Luck was one my side as it usually was because the man happened to turn his head towards my direction. He didn't appear to see me, but I got a good look at his face. He was definitely Bruce Banner.

"That was much easier than I believed it would be." I said. "Well, this mission is over."

I tapped my comm to open a connection to Sitwell and his team, which was set up in the town over.

"Sitwell, I have eyes on Banner." I said. "Tell Ross that the information he got was correct. He…He can move in if he wishes."

I still didn't feel right about Ross going after Banner. He was too obsessed with all of this. Too focused on getting Banner, and I'm sure it wasn't out of the goodness of his heart. I knew he had suffered a big hit to his career when Banner's experiment failed the first time. I knew Ross would do anything to make himself look good. Even if that meant dissecting Banner on a lab table to get whatever made him change out of him to put into some other poor bastard.

Humans shouldn't try to enhance themselves in my opinion. They were born human for a reason. Leave the inhuman strength and agility to those who are born with it. Besides, Banner didn't seem to be much of a threat as long as he was left alone. He was obviously trying to be a good person. Why not just let him try to live life as normally as he can? I sighed knowing that'd never happen because S.H.I.E.L.D and the army don't see someone with a life and emotions if they think that person could be a possible threat or asset.

"Roger that, Cortez, your mission is complete." Sitwell said. "Return to base camp, and we'll then return to the HQ."

"Understood." I said.

I cut the connection as I stood up on the roof. I was still unsure how I felt about letting Ross go after Banner. I didn't trust that man as far as I can throw him. But who was I to question orders? I humorlessly chuckled. I used to question, or ignore orders all the time. Now I'm playing it safe—most of the time anyway—and all it took was a war to get me to behave. I shook my head deciding I better just leave before I can talk myself into doing something stupid. I then frowned while slapping the side of my neck when another bug bit me.

I let out a yawn as I walked through the New York HQ. I had been sleeping in at my apartment when I got the call to come in from Coulson. I started wondering if this was about the Bruce Banner thing. It's been over two weeks since I was in Brazil, and I heard about how Ross lost his chance of getting his hands on Banner. I hadn't been too upset to hear about it. It was best someone like Ross was nowhere near someone like Banner. The power this guy supposedly had was not meant to be bottled and forced into others.

"Kaira, there you are."

I blinked before looking forward to see Coulson standing there and waiting for me.

"What's going on?" I asked. "Why did I need to be called in so early?"

It was barely before six after all. I mean, I usually start my mornings at six in the morning for an early run and some exercise, but I had had a late night after coming in from a small mission that I didn't finish until midnight. I didn't get home until 2:00am, so I'm a little tired.

"Sorry, we had to wake you." Coulson said honestly as he started leading me away from the lobby. "But the issue with Banner as you know isn't resolved."

I nodded because I had been informed of Banner's disappearance from Ross the second it happened. I had still been on the quinjet ride home when it happened. Sitwell thought we might need to turn around to offer assistance, but I shot that idea down fast. Not only would it be unsafe to track Banner while he was in whatever state he had been in, but I didn't want to find him.

"Do I need to go after him now?" I asked frowning.

I'd rather not have to track him down then hand him right over to Ross. It wouldn't set well with me at all.

"Ross has requested more help." Phil said nodding.

I didn't find my displeasure as I scoffed rolling my eyes. I still don't see why we're helping this guy.

"You don't approve, Agent Cortez?"

Phil and I came to halt to turn and look at Fury as he was walking our way with Maria right behind him like a shadow as always.

"I don't trust, Ross, sir." I said honestly. "He's too obsessed with Bruce Banner and what's inside of him. Too obsessed to prove the idea he had when he recruited Banner can work once the military has their hands on it to put it to use. If a scientist like Banner couldn't get it to work, I highly doubt a group of military scientist who only have half the brain of Banner can make it work. We might have more men like Banner running around, but they might not feel too inclined to try and keep that power to themselves even if it dangers others."

Fury listened as I spoke with an unreadable expression on his face as there always is.

"Bruce Banner…he obviously doesn't want this." I said. "He's been trying to be good, but with Ross in the picture there will be more incidents. More people will be hurt."

It was silent for a moment longer before Fury nodded his head with a slight hum leaving his lips.

"I understand your concerns, Agent Cortez." Fury said. "I have them myself, which is why your mission is to make sure Ross doesn't get his hands on Dr. Banner. Just in subtle ways make sure Banner gets away because we don't need the council who support General Ross knowing what we're doing exactly. Once it seems that Ross has given up, I will pull you out, and put other agents on the mission to make sure any other interested parties don't find Banner."

"While also making sure he doesn't get away from us." I finished knowing his game.

Fury nodded his head not trying to hide that fact like most people would if called out on it. I then grinned.

"Well, as long as I get to keep Ross away from what he wants." I said. "I'm all for it."

"Good, Agent Cortez." Fury said. "I'll leave finding Bruce Banner to you. I believe there are friends here in S.H.I.E.L.D that can help you in this endeavor."

I grinned with someone already coming to my mind, and I'm sure he's still here in the building. He barely leaves the place unless forced to.

"It's time to visit my old pal Galen." I said.

NO POV:

Galen Parker let out a yawn as he looked at the computer screen in front of him. He was pulling another late night in the S.H.I.E.L.D's communication room as he was making sure the comms that would be used in the next few missions were operational and hooked into the computer system. He peeked up from his computer screen to see it was nearing six in the morning. It wasn't even a late night anymore since night was now over. He just pulled another all-nighter, which was something else he does often.

"Oh, Son of Iris~"

Galen winced at the purposely high-pitched, loud crooning voice before turning to see Kaira heading his way. Kaira was a fellow half-blood like him, and even got him started in S.H.I.E.L.D about three months ago. Galen, who is a son of the goddess Iris, was just working communication circuits for some small time business when in strolled Kaira—a face from his past when he was as a camper of Camp Half-Blood.

Galen and Kaira had shared the Hermes Cabin together with many Half-Bloods. They bonded rather quickly since both came from minor goddesses who had very few children. They hadn't actually had any brothers and sisters at the time of their meeting, which had brought them close together. Though after the war they had separated to do their own thing. Or more like Kaira was taken into custody with no one at camp really knowing what to do at the time. Galen, who is horrible with physical confrontations, had even suggested going after her, but Chiron forbid it. Soon after there was world that Kaira was okay and willingly decided to join the people who took her in.

After that the two barely had any contact until Kaira found him in his new job. She told him she had a better job for him where he didn't have to completely hide his abilities. A job that paid more and came with many government benefits. It hadn't taken Galen long to agree, so here he was three months later in the S.H.I.E.L.D.'s communication offices making it where communication during missions was always possible with his gifts, which has actually saved a few agents' lives. Though he had to be careful with using his gifts since not everyone was allowed to be in the know about them.

"Kaira, it's too early in the morning for you to be so peppy." He groaned as she practically jumped him from behind to wrap her arms around his neck.

"And I've missed you too, Galen." Kaira said as she leaned over to kiss his cheek.

Galen blushed at her actions before rolling his eyes since he knew she meant nothing by them. It was just a platonic kiss on the cheek between siblings really.

"You never come to work this early unless ordered to." Galen said. "Or unless you want something from yours truly."

Kaira chuckled before moving to plop down in the office chair behind one of the desks. She rolled it over close to Galen as if she didn't want to be overheard.

"I need you to find someone for me." Kaira said grinning.

Galen looked at her with a quirked brow wondering who this person was, and how Kaira expected him to find this person.

"Everyone uses some kind of technological communication now." Kaira said. "And you are a communications expert, which means you can most likely track someone through any communications they've ever made as long as it's in some kind of database, right?"

Galen nodded his head because that was true. He could find anyone as long as there was just a shredded inch left of any communications they had with the outside world.

"Good." Kaira said with her grin growing. "I need you to find me a man named Bruce Banner."

Galen's eyes widened while knowing exactly who Bruce Banner was. He was the man that Fury was helping some general track down. Kaira had been assigned to help track him down about two weeks ago, but he managed to escape the general's clutches. Now he was nowhere to be found.

"Why do you want to find him?" Galen asked.

"Let's just say Director Fury wants to play his own little game concerning Bruce Banner." Kaira said. "As in certain people do not need to know of it."

Galen frowned because he didn't like this slightly double agent stuff. Like having missions within missions that go against the higher ups. He likes this new job. He'd like to keep it. However, he trusted Fury's judgement more than he did the Council's judgement. And Fury is the one who gave him the job in the first place.

"Alright, I'll see what I can pull up." Galen said. "Might take me an hour or two."

"Thanks, Gal." Kaira said. "I'll be sure to bring a fresh large cup of coffee and some donuts when I come back."

Kaira stood up with Galen sighing. Of course, she wasn't going to stick around for the "boring stuff" as she calls it.

"Oh, don't sigh." Kaira said. "I have to go get ready to move out as soon as you think you've found a location on Banner. And don't look so worried because this is going to be fun."

She grinned widely as she said this before practically skipping away to go get ready.

"If I don't get my coffee for this, I'll never do her another favor again." Galen grumbled to himself though knew he was lying to himself.

KAIRA'S POV:

Kaira hummed to herself as she was finishing up backing her mission bag. As she was zipping it up, there was a knock on the door to the prep-room. She looked up while seeing Clint standing there.

"Birdie." Kaira said a bit surprised to see him. "I thought you were away on a mission."

Clint smiled at me while not at all bothered by the Birdie nickname since I've been calling him that for a while now.

"I just got back, and heard you were sent on one." Clint said. "Dealing with the illusive Bruce Banner."

Even though he spoke casually I could see the worry in his eyes. He always worried when I was sent on missions alone if they had the slightest chance of leading to a fight of any kind, which most of them did.

"I'm going to be fine, Clint." I said reassuringly. "I probably won't even have to engage anyone in a fight. I'm just working from the shadows to make sure Ross doesn't get his hands on Bruce Banner and the gama radiation in side of him that could lead to an army of green monsters. It's an easy-peasy mission."

Clint gave me an you-are-joking-right?-look, which had me snorting at him in amusement.

"It'll be easier than Budapest at least." I said shrugging.

"It might be easier than Budapest." Clint retorted. "If something goes wrong, and you somehow end up face to face with Banner while he's all…hulked out, you could end up hurt."

I smiled feeling touched that he cared about my safety. Many humans never really cared about me before. Especially if they knew I wasn't quite human myself. I walked around the table to hug Clint, and he hugged me in return.

"I'm going to be fine, Papa Bird." I assured him again. "Chiron taught me how to survive in the world, and you taught me how to survive in this line of work. With two such great mentors how could I fail?"

Clint just sighed as he tightened his arms around me. I knew he'd be worried until I came back safe and sound, but hopefully he wouldn't pull out all his hair due to stressing during that time.

"Just please come home safe, Baby Bird." Clint said the chuckled. "I'd hate to explain to Momma Bird why we're one birdie short."

I pulled back laughing slightly was sure Laura would rip Clint a new one if anything too drastic happened to me. She kind of took me in as one of her kids too even if I'm kind of too old to be her and Clint's child. Both of them have treated me like a daughter the second Clint took me to the farm a year and a half ago to meet his family.

"I'd hate for you to be maimed in any sort of way, so I'll be sure to come back in one piece." I said grinning.

Clint shook his head at me while playfully cuffing me on top of my head. The door to the prep-room opened again with Galen poking his head.

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything, Agent Barton." Galen said hesitantly.

I wanted to snort at his behavior, but knew Galen was just shy and unsure around others. He's always been a pretty shy guy. However, once he warmed up to you, his personality came out more and more.

"Nah, we're done here, Parker." Clint said. "Be sure to keep Kaira's comm working while she's out, okay?"

"Y-yes, sir." Galen said nodding.

Clint chuckled at his behavior before walking past the younger man while patting him on the shoulder. Galen held back a flinch before slightly shaking his head as he cleared his throat.

"Um, well, I managed to find some communications of Bruce Banner's, but I had to use some of my powers since Banner was very careful when communicating online." Galen said. "He used an alias, and this hardware meant to dump and erase any communications he had with this other person who was also using an alias. However, once I managed to find the communication thread between them, I was able to pull up all conversations they've ever had."

I nodded my head thinking this was all sounding good in my opinion. Maybe we'll find out what Banner's been doing, and where he might be heading.

"What were the conversations about?" I asked.

"They were mostly about plant life and how certain plants are known to cure certain illnesses like radiation sickness for example." Galen said. "After shifting through so many conversations, I believe that Dr. Banner has been trying to cure himself, and this person he's speaking with—a man who goes by Mr. Blue—is helping him."

I hummed as I leaned against the table behind me. So Bruce has had communication with others during his years of being AWOL.

"Anything that suggests this person is someone of Banner's past?" I asked.

Galen shook his head then moved over to the table I was at to lay down his laptop. I turned around to see what was on the screen.

"It seemed these two met each other by chance." Galen said. "Or rather Dr. Banner went looking for Mr. Blue to get help, which leads me to believe Mr. Blue might be some kind of fellow scientist that might work in a similar field to Dr. Banner. Though their last conversation leads me to believe that Dr. Banner is heading back to where this all happened to him."

"What makes you think that?" I asked with a quirked brow.

Galen pulled up another window that had a conversation between someone named Mr. Green, who had to be Bruce, and someone named Mr. Blue, which is the mystery dude helping Bruce.

"Check out what Dr. Banner last sent to the mysterious Mr. Blue." Galen said.

I looked down to the last words typed seeing Bruce had sent the word home to Mr. Blue.

"So he's heading home." I murmured. "And what is home to Dr. Bruce Banner?"

"Well, you might not like the answer." Galen said honestly.

I looked over at Galen with a frown on my face as I wondered where the heck I'd be going.

"Ugh, I don't even attend this place, and I already hate it." I said to myself.

I looked around the university while wondering why I even agreed to this again. I hate schooling of any kind. I might just be posing as a student here until Bruce turns up, but I'm still not happy about it. I let out a sigh as I plopped down on a bench under a tree. Where the heck was Bruce? I hope Galen wasn't wrong about his hunch of Bruce showing up here. Just as I was thinking about calling the Son of Iris to ask him if Bruce has spoken to Mr. Blue again, my comm went off.

"Hey, Kaira," Galen's voice appeared in my ear. "Dr. Banner just opened another communication thread to Mr. Blue. It's coming from within the campus as we speak."

This had me sitting up straighter, so Bruce here. Well, looks like Galen's hunch had been right. How lucky.

"I need a more specific location, Gal." I said as I quickly got up from my seat. "Give me coordinates."

Galen quickly told me which direction to go, which had me quickly yet calmly going in that direction. I made it to one of the science buildings on campus while knowing I needed to set eyes on Bruce as soon as possible. This guy was an expert at the disappearing acts, so I need to set my sights on him and keep on him before he vanishes to only the gods know where. I made it to where the security guard was stationed, which had me coming to a stop. I didn't need to get in trouble with him since it might cause a scene. Something I didn't need at the moment since it might make Bruce bolt.

"Excuse me." I said smiling at the man in a friendly manner.

The security guy, who was stuffing his face with pizza, looked up at me with a quirked brow. He swallowed his bite of pizza before giving me his full attention.

"Can I help you?" He asked.

"I'm looking for a friend of mine." I said then pulled out my cellphone, which had no calling features whatsoever since that was just begging for a monster attack. "He looks like this."

I showed him a picture of Bruce that Galen had sent me from an old school newspaper that was wrote about Bruce.

"Oh, that guy." The security guard said grinning. "He, uh, just left. He made his delivery and went."

"Delivery?" I asked in slight confusion.

"Yeah, he delivered some pizza to someone on the fifth floor." The guy said. "Even gave me this pizza for free."

He gestured to the nearly gone pizza as I wondered why Bruce was delivering pizzas. I mean, he probably used the pizza delivery ruse to get up to the fifth floor for some reason. But how'd he end up with the pizza in the first place? He didn't seem like the time to mug a pizza delivery guy to take his pizzas and his uniform. That could only mean he knew someone who made pizza, right?

"And where did this pizza come from?" I asked while needing to know quickly.

I might not have caught up to Bruce here, but it seems as if luck hasn't completely abandoned me. If I can find him at this pizza joint, I could still make the mission succeed. The guy showed me the front of the box, and I quickly committed the name of the pizza joint to memory. Looks like I'm going out for a bite to eat.
