Reunion with brokeharlem

It was a long trip, almost six hours before she was in New York. Betty hadn't driven much in big city like this so she was grateful for the turn by turn directions of her GPS. Stark tower loomed in the center of town, the glowing sign lighting up the dark. It was still a wreck here, she had to avoid multiple construction sites, passing huge holes in the road and businesses smashed to pieces.

She parked in a lot a short distance away from the tower, who's sign was reduced to just a single A glowing overhead. Betty got out of the car and started walking, thumbing her phone as she posted on twitter, to make sure Bruce knew she was there.

@drbanner I'm here, walking towards the tower.

"I haven't been able to work out what it is, exactly, either," he admits, squinting down at the screen. He could probably take a moment to look for his own glasses, but he has the sneaking suspicion he left them upstairs, in one of Tony's labs.

"But yeah. The arc reactor this place runs on sort of gave their setup a jump, and the Tesseract -- that cube in the middle? -- took over from there. From what I figured out before ... " Before everything had gone to hell on the helicarrier. " ... it was self-sustaining by the time we got there."

loop the next one around?

"Incredible..." Betty says, watching the glowing cube and the aliens streaming out of the hole in space. They looked terrifying, there wasn't any sense of size until you looked at the Stark tower and compared to the ships coming through.

"Self sustaining energy." She sighs, taking off her glasses to put them away. Pity they couldn't have kept it, but it sounded like it was more trouble than it was worth.

Out of curiosity, she touches another square below the screen and is suddenly greeted with another video, one of the Hulk smashing his way through main street in high definition.

Betty is a little startled but quiet while watching. He was helping the others, that was something new.
