15 missed calls from the wife can't be good

I stand corrected.

Things  can get pretty bad pretty quick.

Here I was, in the middle of upstate New York, with a tracker on my back and a mini microphone in my pulled up hoodie, trying to put out a fire with sewer water.

Fury mde me wear a hoodie and sunglasses and Natasha put makeup on so that I looked like I had a huge scar across my face so that nobody would recocnise me up close. He also gave me a switch that I can use to call backup and a comm.

I wrinkled my nose. The water stunk. As much as I hated this, I liked the fact that I could still be in contact with my greek side. My immortality didn't do anything that special. Sure, I would still be looking like a twenty year old by the time I'm fifty, but still, I would live to see my kids grow up and their kids.

And by the time I'm a great grampa, I'd still look like a twenty year old.

Oh man, that's very depressing.

Anyway, the fire was finally out and I turned around to leave, but then I saw the familiar lady in the flower dress, a small smile dancing on her lips and in her big eyes.

Raina.

I gave her a small smile.

"What are you doing here, Mr. Jackson? I thought you wanted nothing to do with these things anymore." She said with a peep voice.

"I heard you were experimenting on normal people now. So I did what a normal human being would do and I tried to distract you and tell you to stop. " I said.

She giggled. " Oh Mr. Jackson, you should know that you can't say anything that would influence my decision. "

"Yeah I know. "

"Then why do you bother trying when you know you are going to fail?" She asked.

"Because I know that if I try talking to you, there might be enough time for someone else to infiltrate the organisation." I said.

"Well, I hope that's working out for you, because while you were speaking so freely, Centipede has surrounded you." She said, a small smile displaying on her lips.

I felt a small prick in the back of my neck and I already knew that it was a paralysing dart. I gasped.

"Not cool."I croaked before hitting the switch Fury gave me and then faceplanting. The last thing I was aware of was my bloody nose and hands grabbing me underneath my arms and dragging me away.

I thought f stopping it right there, but I realised that is was a bit too short so I'm gonna be nice and continue. Cuz I love you.
Gh0stwr1t3r out!

When I woke up, I was surprised.

I was in a simple infirmary bed with white walls and a few faces that I recocnise. 

My nose was cleaned up, but still sore.

I looked at the people. They had navy or black jackets on with badges that said, SHIELD.

But then I looked up and was so startled I cursed. Director Fury was staring down at me with an unreadable face expression. 

Creepy.

"What are you looking at?" I asked,  arching my eyebrows.

"I'm gonna say something I never say." He said.

"And that is..." I waited for him to finish the sentence.

"You almost got yourself compromised today. It was a stupid move to let yourself get so close to being captured. But, you didn't,  so I would just have to say it and get it over with. Good job. You won't be hearing those two words again soon." He said and started walking.

"Oh, and before I forget, you have a few missed calls from your wife."

I stood up off the bed and headed to my office. The nurses lectured me about being more careful and that they didn't want to see me again in there soon. I just shrugged it off and walked on.

I saw five files on my desk and my computer was on. Then I checked my phone.

The blue light sparked  ith notifications.

I turned it on and saw.....

Shit.

15 missed calls from Annabeth.

This can't be good.
