“I need additional security for the upcoming Sterling/Stark Expo and I would like to officially hire you, Barton and maybe another. I cannot allow this to slow the wheels of progress because if I drop out, they win and I’ve been looking forward to this for two years. In fact there are a number of new projects I’m undertaking both myself and in collaboration with the Avengers. And speaking of the Avengers, at some point soon I would like to appoint you as my liaison to them, it’d be a paid assignment of course, with a number of additional assets I would be providing you, of course. In fact I will be showing you said asset today when we leave before your training session.” Vic was looking forward to the look on Whitman’s face when he saw his new toy.
Price knew Dane was concerned but he put a hand on his shoulder. “I’m searching while we speak. I’ve deployed cloaked seeker drones to look for clues and to survey in and around my other facilities. As soon as they make a move, I’ll know.” Price detected Iron Legionnaires landing on site along with a Quinjet he’d called for. “Our ride is here, let’s go. We have a lot to do today.” Walking out to the aircraft with his armor shifting back into place, he walked into the back and up to the pilot’s seat passing a squad of Sterling security he’d had flown in to reinforce the site. FRIDAY, deploy all available security drones at all sites and double the security detail at all sites. If anything happens I want to be informed immediately.
Looking back to talk to Dane he waved for him to hurry up. We’re going to Yonkers, it's about an eight and a half minute flight but I think you’ll like what’s waiting there.
