Summary
Nick Fury was a foster parent and a principal, so it was safe to say he knew kids. Nick Fury was also a skilled and experienced ex-soldier and a retired spy, and he knew that if there was a child’s picture in a redacted S.H.I.E.L.D. file than everything had already gone to hell.
Note
So, so much backstory. Bear with me, there was a lot of world building to set up this AU, things get better once the ball starts rolling. I actually started writing this about halfway through season two, stopped working on it, and decided to brush it off because I wrote so much for it already.
