Young Avengers Initiative: Series 1-Chapter 1

Young Avengers, assembled!
They had answered the call, a call their parents had once answered to. Yet, the gathering couldn't be more tense. It was so tense someone could cut it with a knife, or expect lightning to be shot across the room. Unfortunately, Maria Hill herself wasn't there to brief them on the complete situation, but this task fell to Lucas Rodgers, son of Captain America and Black Widow. Not that he was utterly thrilled at this either as debriefing wasn't exactly his best area of skill. But it had to be done.

"Well, since we're all here finally, let's get to the point shall we?" Lucas spoke, clearing his throat a bit as the others shifted and became more alert since regardless of their first impressions of one another this was something that had to be done. Not to mention, they really had little choice in the matter. "All of you know what we're up against, what's expected to be done to this long time threat going about our planet. Only problem is, we haven't made much ground in the last twenty years and still are at a stale mate now." Lucas began, meeting every gaze in the room as they were at least listening intently. "Our first step towards victory is taking out their own major spots. Which means, we'll be hitting several major landmarks around this planet if we have to, and that's generally where a majority of the Skrull bases here on Earth have come to operate."

It seemed on cue though the young man known as Jaden Stark, the heir to Stark Industries and only known son of Tony Stark aka Ironman, quickly came in. "Glad you bring this up Rodgers because I've been compiling a holographic image of those locations based on the information and limited schematics available at this time." Jaden said as he rested his hand on the circle table serving as their main place in the old Avengers meeting room, which triggered a touch screen keyboard to show. Pressing a few buttons, Jaden watched as the holographic projectors projected a model of Earth, showing where the Earth Resistance was and the known Skrull force bases. Unfortunately, many of the primary cities around the globe and some natural wonders of the world had become places for the Skrull to operate and proved to be quite an insult to injury to the remaining humans. "Have to admit Stark, this actually might prove to be quite useful." Lucas commented, now a bit more confident they could end up tracking their progress.
