Agents of SHIELD:

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Director Nick Fury. Director Fury was shot last night, and succumbed to his wounds at 01:03 EST.

It is impossible to imagine SHIELD over the past four decades without also imagining Nick Fury. Director Fury was a principled man of unparalleled talent for espionage. Reinhard Gehlen of the BND once said that if Nick Fury had been born ten years earlier, the Cold War would have ended 25 years sooner and it's believable. Director Fury stood as a titan over the field of modern intelligence. But Director Fury liked to say that a man could only accomplish great things when he realized he was a part of something bigger than himself. Director Fury took an active role in the recruitment, education, and personal mentoring of countless agents and played a personal hand in the development and maturation of many of SHIELD's successes in recent years, including publicly, the Avengers Initiative.

He will be impossible to ever truly replace.

However, SHIELD must move forward. The World Security Council and SHIELD leadership have named Secretary of Defense, Alexander Pierce of the Triskelion as Interim Director of SHIELD pending appointment of a permanent Director.

For further details, and a brief biography of Secretary Pierce, please refer to memo A643-22. As always, consider this communication to be privileged information until such time that a public announcement of a new Director has been made.

FILTERED TO SHIELD AGENTS & LADY SIF:

I need four agents who do not have any sexual or romantic interest in females to report to me immediately. We have a very delicate situation that needs swift resolution. This team is temporary, and you must be available for immediate launch.

[From the calendar. There were only two sign-ups originally.]

SHIELD L8+:

We've received word from Lady Sif that one of Asgard's prisoners has escaped and is here on Earth. She goes by Lorelai, and she's a powerful enchantress with a particular fondness for enchanting men. We have every reason to believe she is currently amassing an army of men under her control. She currently has one of ours, Agent Ward.

Agent Hand, we'll need some back-up stopping her. Agents not attracted to women preferred.

COULSON'S TEAM & SIF:

I've alerted SHIELD. Hopefully we'll have back-up on the way soon. In the meantime, we'll concentrate on trying to track them down.

[Filtered to SHIELD L8+]

So I just caught wind of this update.

But you know how All Things Considered was covering the Rising Tide and some of the Potts Tower residents? We got the recording and Pierce decided he's calling in with a rebuttal.

93.9 has it at 16:00 or 19:00. I think we're about 22 minutes in.

You know that "unless something comes up" clause? That's SHIELD for you.

How's tomorrow look?

FILTERED TO ESPIONAGE 1 (SEPARATE FILTER FOR L8 SHIELD AND ABOVE):

Refugee #869 - Joruus C'Baoth - escaped basic quarantine procedures and has entered the city unchecked. Report to the Hub for immediate briefing and deployment for recon and tracking.

Anyone with specific knowledge of this refugee should see me immediately.

VOICE COMMS - COULSON'S TEAM

The storm that Donnie and Seth created is growing stronger by the minute. We need to find a way to stop it, and fast.

Ward, what's your status?

[Filtered to SHIELD L8+]

I've got some business out of town, but make sure the Retrieval sets aside and seals all of Agent Foucault's personal effects. Particularly written and electronic sources. JS.

I'm rescheduling everyone I've not yet met to the end of the week. My calendar's at the same link.

Comms Post

[If you are running Comms today during the attack on the helicarrier, please use this post as a base of operations so that we don't have millions of posts. It will be very similar to the post that was running during the Dark World attack on London which is here for reference. Filters can be used to specific groups and anything unfiltered will be general comm chatter. Updates will be throughout the day. So have fun guys :D

Sample Filters being (Air Support) (Jail Break Crew) (Team Iron) Ectect Everything on here is comms chatter not a network post]

Be on alert, HYDRA's got the tip off. Sitwell is go on security crash.

Anyone still in need of transport patch through to me. We've TARDIS in the air and flyers bringing in.

Our soldiers are forfeit as bait with the tip off. X-men, Titans. Follow Widow to the brig. We need our people sprung. Anyone else who wants in on the jail break join now.

Air support. Bring them down. But keep the bird in the air as long as you can.

OOC:UPDATE: For extra fun some villains will be making reappearances. I wonder how HYDRA got those. This will be updated throughout the day.

Heard you had trouble. Everything ok?

VICTORIA HAND:

Our new boss just said she's going to shoot me out of the sky.

SHIELD. if you're currently at-large or in a safehouse, you're not on this filter
There are many of you confused, and unsure of your path within this storied old organisation. There are many of you who question allegiances and entertain thoughts of rebellion. And still yet there are a great many of you who understand that SHIELD's goals have been bastardised by those loyal to Nick Fury. There are a great many of you who realise the world is no safer than the moment after the portal was closed in New York.

Why? Because of weakness, because of disunity and because of an uncommunicated message to you, the hands and the feet of SHIELD. So allow me to tell you, SHIELD. Allow me to fully introduce to to these are desires. SHIELD's goals are:

Expand upon - and further strengthen - our offensive technology and our weapons systems.

Subdue and eliminate security risks; be that the Tesseract and its many fluctuations, or the traitorous agents turned by Nicholas Fury.

Reclaim stolen property including any R&D technology taken by Agent Philip Coulson as well as the Tesseract itself.

PHIL COULSON.
Agent Coulson, you missed your deadline.

VICTORIA HAND.
Be advised that Agent Phil Coulson is now a wanted man. I might also offer you some small congratulations regarding coming to a greater completion of your operative goals. I should think that you will have information for me shortly? If you haven't the stomach to do what needs doing, I will myself.

Who: SHIELD Fugitives (All/Any Hawkhouse + Sithouse Agents)
When: March 25th
Where: Sitwell's Safehouse
What: -- Furyco tips off SHIELD as to their (Sithouse) location, sacrificing a few agents and one safehouse to better secure the tesseract. Hawkhouse agents arrive at Sithouse and prepare for a raid. As planned Sharon Carter, Maya, and Mordecai are taken into custody by SHIELD-loyal agents.

Alright. So everyone should be settled from the move and if you've missed that we're guarding the Tesseract I've got nothing.

But because we have the Tesseract, we have a few more rules in place.

• We are splitting up into pairs and taking 8 hour shifts. Hansen and Kaidanovsky 2200 to 0600. Jones, you're with me 0600 to 1400, Harkness and Gaige 1400 to 2200. I'll try to have a pot going at shift change.
• People arrive. We calm them down, give them a pamphlet, escort them to holding. We keep up our schedule on drops. If we get a surge of people, flag me and I'll set up a special one but it takes about two hours and is a pain in the ass.
• Weapons are available and I want everyone wearing appropriate protective and masking gear. Gaige and Kaidanovsky. We are going to have a long talk before I can clear you for any of them. Everyone who is cleared armed at all times.
• If a threat comes through, Hit the horn, deal with it. The rest of you: that horn goes off, get your ass to the Tesseract. Take any measures necessary to contain. We do not want something getting out and being a danger to the public or giving away our location.
• If we have a breach, the Tesseract is priority. Whoever's on duty, grab the Tesseract, escape into the sewer and Don't get caught. Please review alternate exits. Everyone else, slows progress. If we manage to escape, meet up is room 37 of the JFK Inn by LaGuardia. You should all have keys.
• Computers are second priority. If escape seems unlikely, we have a kill switch located by the blue button.

If you need anything that's not a dumbass request, I'll see what I can manage. Everyone get all that?

Four hours. Four hours and they bring home a stray. We picked up Sasha Kaidonovsky.

Also, hey Hill.

We're experiencing technical delays. I'm afraid we won't be able to take off for at least a day, possibly longer. I'm trying to get the comm back up to inform HQ but there's an awful lot of static currently. The satellite must be blocked at the moment.

[Filtered to Hill]

Couldn't bring the helicarrier with you?

[Filtered to the Safeshouse bazillion]

Welcome to the life of a wanted traitor. I hope it's everything you've imagined it would be.

I have four safehouses that we are running active right now. One of which is holding the tesseract. If you're at that one, congratulations your location is a high priority target and you get to deal with refugees as they backsass the pamphlet that Sitwell spent an entire afternoon making. And I know how much all of you loved tesseract duty back at SHIELD.

Lead officers for the houses are as follows. Sitwell, Barton, Hill, or myself. One of us is at each location. You need something and it's not a stupid request, contact your lead officer because they know my network better than you do I can promise you that.

Now that the introduction is over. How about we work on getting SHIELD back.
