The two pickup trucks moved slowly along the snow-covered highway. The heavy snowfall made the journey slow and difficult. Leon, who was driving the lead truck, frowned.
"Isn't this inconvenient with just a car?" he muttered.
"Definitely inconvenient," Natasha quipped from the back seat. "A private jet would be better for country-hopping, but I doubt that's in your budget."
Leon chuckled, thinking about his wallet. Private jets were definitely out of his league for now. But that didn't stop him from dreaming.
He thought about the Quinjet used by S.H.I.E.L.D. or Professor X's Blackbird. Both were versatile, global aircraft with radar shielding and optical invisibility, meaning no need for flight clearance. Or better yet, the Ancient One's portal—now that would be a handy mode of travel.
Leon even considered the possibility of a sign-in system granting him teleportation powers. But given the randomness, there was no telling when that would happen. In the meantime, he'd make do with what he had and focus on what he could control.
As they drove, Natasha was busy in the backseat, setting up the communication system. A jack-of-all-trades, Natasha's technical expertise proved valuable as she ensured everyone's headsets were connected.
