[It isn't very often that Nick Fury could say he was worried. Not very often at all. But in this case he can honestly and legitimately say he is very worried.

All the technology in the world and the coffee on the Helicarrier still has no flavor whatsoever. Or maybe he's just that tired. It's probably been 3 nights since he's had more than a couple hours of sleep between status updates. He runs a hand over his head and picks up his earpiece, fitting it back over his ear. As if anyone could get a good night's sleep while the world was in as much danger as it is.
He presses a button and calls Coulson. He doesn't even wait for pleasantries. As soon as he hears the line connect he starts speaking]
