Chapter 13 – Director of SHIELD

As Tony was watching Jarvis trying to use the Mind Stone on Magneto, he thought about quickly learning it’s structure and said.

“It’s Time…..Wanda!”

Wanda could control Mind Stone to overpower Vision and this is exactly what Tony needed.

“Jarvis….”

In Comics, after the events of Civil War, The President himself appoints Tony Stark as the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D with Agent Hill as his acting Deputy.

So Stark was obviously on his way to the S.H.I.E.L.D’s Headquarter to claim that title.

This position can increase Tony’s influence and could give him a legal right to do a certain things which otherwise would be labeled as Illegal.

As Tony’s car reached the S.H.I.E.L.D, many security officers saluted him as he was the Head of Avengers and incarcerated almost all of them. They also respected him greatly as he was the lone protector of The U.S.A from the attacks of supernatural.

“Welcome Sir” Said an officer in black suit who came to receive him at the gates of S.H.I.E.L.D.

“Hey! Is Fury around?”

“Uhm No Sir, Director S.H.I.E.L.D was in an accident this morning. He’s been hospitalized in the Unit 235.”

“What? How did this happened?” Asked Tony with a surprised expression as they walked inside the The S.H.I.E.L.D’s headquarters.

“His car went out of control and mysteriously blew up. We are still investigating.”

“This is quite big. Is the Pentagon notified?”

“Yes Sir, A representative from Pentagon is about to arrive.”

Suddenly, 4 giant helicopters with missiles and guns all around landed at the helipads inside S.H.I.E.L.D and a seemingly old lady in a white office suit came out with six bodyguards.

Maria Hill, who was close to the Helipads, rushed towards her and greeted the lady while Tony started walking towards them.

“Welcome Lady Viceroy” Said Maria as she greeted the lady.

“Agent Hill, I presume”

“Tony Stark” Came a voice from behind Maria and as their eyes went in the direction of the voice, Both of them were surprised to find Tony coming towards them.

“Mr. Stark! What are you doing here?” Asked Lady Viceroy who was from the Pentagon.

“I came here to talk to Fury about a very urgent matter, but found out that he himself was on a medical bed.”

“Urgent Matter? Is everything okay, Mr. Stark?”

“Not exactly! Yesterday I intercepted a cargo of weapons made from Chitauri technology! The same alien race which attacked US 8 years ago. Apparently a guy named Toomes, who was contracted by the mayor to clean up the mess before D.O.D.C took over, smuggled a large amount of the alien rubble and mass produced them in weapons. I already have a death count of over fifty thousand in just US but before I could find anything more about it, he killed himself.”

“What!” Shouted both Lady Viceroy and Agent Hill as they were told about alien weapons being shipped all over the world from U.S.A. This was a major threat towards the citizens and needed to be solved immediately.

“Come with me Stark, we need to discuss this inside.” Said Agent Hill as she lead the way and Lady Viceroy and Tony followed.

Tony then made a beautiful story about how he encountered Adrian Toomes alias Vulture and how he killed himself before Tony could find out anything else.

Tony had actually already raided their base and extracted all the Chitauri technology while Jarvis located all the dealers by tracing the wire transfers. Tony although didn’t touch them and just let them smuggle the said alien weapons.

“See this. I retrieved this gun from that guy before he turned into a puddle of sewer water.” Said Tony as he took out a gun which he retrieved from Toomes’s base and showed it to Maria, Viceroy and some other officers of S.H.I.E.L.D.

“This weapon can easily evaporate your normal metal firearms.” Continued Tony as he pointed the gun towards everyone and then turned around to shoot a chair.

A purple energy shot out from the gun which immediately struck the leg of the chair and made it disappear.

Actually, Chitauri weapons which Toomes was smuggling weren’t this powerful, Tony just used some energy manipulation to make it look like that gun was indeed this powerful.

The color of all the people watching this turned white as they were thinking about the destruction these kinds of weapons can do at the hands of terrorists.

“We need to deal with it now.” was the only thing Lady Viceroy could say as she flipped out her phone and called someone.

Tony looking at how his plan had worked, smirked a little before saying

“Actually I have already tracked a large number of dealers but I don’t have enough Manpower to intercept them. Many are even out of the US soil.”

“What!? Mr. Stark you should’ve said it first. S.H.I.E.L.D was established just for this purpose, to safeguard our citizens.” Responded Maria with surprise.

“And that’s why I came to find Fury today.”

Soon, Tony, Maria, Viceroy and some other people were waiting in front of a room when suddenly the gate opened and a woman in secretary’s uniform came out and said

“The President will see you all now.”

Everyone quickly got up and rushed in the room to find President sitting with some of the advisors from CIA and Whitehouse.

“Lady President! We have a situation.”

Viceroy then went on to tell the President about what Tony had told her and about Nick Fury’s situation too. Tony then took out the Chitauri gun and showed them it’s destructive powers which surprised the president greatly.

“Dr. Stark. I believe you have already tracked many of the people who have these weapons in a large quantity, Right?”

“Yes Lady President. But we can’t do anything about it since local authorities are no match for them and only S.H.I.E.L.D’s Director Fury can mobilize the number of agents which will be needed for the extraction of these weapons.” Replied Tony with a look of helplessness.

After President had thought and argued a little with her advisers, she turned to Maria and said

“Agent Maria, aren’t you the Deputy of Nick?”

“Yes I am, Lady President”

“Then what do you think about taking the mantle of Nick and becoming S.H.I.E.L.D’s new director?”

Hill was stunned at this suggestion from President and after contemplating a little, she said with a determined voice.

“I am sorry Lady President but I don’t think I am cut out for it. I can’t take the responsibility of so many lives. I am good at what I do and would like to keep it.”

President, after listening her reply sighed to herself before turning towards Tony and asking the same question

“What do you think about it, Dr. Stark? Can you take the responsibility of becoming The S.H.I.E.L.D’s Director?”

Tony was speechless at President’s question and looking that he was considering the President’s words, Hill said

Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.

“I second the motion. I think Stark will be the best choice for this position, Lady President”

Tony looked towards the direction of Maria with a confused expression before ultimately nodding and saying.

“Sure. If you want me as a S.H.I.E.L.D’s director then I will be sure to not disappoint you, Lady President.”

“Good, Then Dr. Tony Stark, you are the new Director of S.H.I.E.L.D effective immediately.”

Tony then signed some papers while President gave him a Card. After exiting the room, Tony immediately mobilized 80% of the S.H.I.E.L.D’s agent and went out on a hunt for the people who were in the possession of Chitauri weapons. Because of Jarvis, who was by now in every cell phone and computer around the world, Tony was easily able to detect the locations of the said weapons and within 2 days, he wiped the floor with almost all of them.

Tony then took all the extracted weapons and assigned them to the top agents of S.H.I.E.L.D after some modifications. This feat was remarkable and made everyone respect him even more as President herself honored Tony with a Medal of Honor.

Inside of Raft prison, Steve was being fed by Sam while Bucky, Wanda, and Clint were just staring at the wall.

No one was talking as they all thought about what had happened at the Airport. A shiver went down everyone’s spine as they remembered Tony, that day, his eyes were shining with red lights as a silvery black suit with repulsars the same colors as his eyes covered his skin and killed Natasha in one look.

“Looks like everyone’s doing fine”
