Chapter 010: A Silver Problem.
Adrian, the one responsible for triggering at least 2 problems for Nick Fury, was in his new mansion that was kindly donated by his contributors who are excited to see his evolution.
With his god eyes, he can see exactly the psychic storm unleashed by the Phoenix, he can also see that Sue's prodigy son is creating in his bedroom.
"... Umu." He nodded solemnly. "This universe is doomed!" He is very panicked, but he knows that he cannot do anything now, therefore, he must speed up his projects!
If the universe ends, let it end!
"Speaking of which, why does that brat have black hair and dark skin? Wasn't he blond?" He narrowed his eyes while looking at Franklin who seemed much older, is he 8 years old?
"....." Adrian began to sweat coldly when he thought of a possibility.
"Don't tell me he is Namor and Sue Storm's son!?"
"Eh? Does that exist!? I have no knowledge at all about this alien!" No matter how much he forces his divine brain to work, he could not remember any son of Sue and Namor in the main canon!
"In other words, this is some aberration from an alternate timeline!?"
"Or is he the son of Sue and Doom? Either way, both options are HORRIBLE!"
"No, wait... If Sue Storm had a son with Namor, the son should be weak, after all, it was the combination of Reed and Sue's genes that created that mini jesus, but that child just created a miniature galaxy... In other words."
"DOOM!?"
"Damn it, Reed! Why can't you take care of your wife's libido! You are an elastic man for God's sake! I hate this universe!"
A son of Doom and Sue is even more horrible than the son of Reed and Sue, because Doom is very OP with his magic nonsense!
"Wait, and Valerie?"
He forced his eyes, and searched for any blonde in that building, and that was when he found a blonde who was 20 years old.
"At least Valerie looks like what I know, so she is Reed's daughter... Wait, is that Valerie!? Shouldn't she be the youngest!?" Adrian was honestly confused, he does not know what the hell is happening. "Valeria should be 4 years old, not 20 years old!"
"Wait, the age doesn't match, Sue Storm is not 40 years old, she must be in her early 30s to 35 years old. Even if she had Valerie at 15 years old, Valerie should be a teenager now, not an adult woman!"
2 seconds later the logical conclusion was that Valerie must have been abducted by some dimensional portal made by her father, and when she returned she was already an adult. A case extremely similar to Illyana Rasputin.
Adrian felt a chill down his spine, he was very wrong, this universe is not just a mix of animation, comics, and movies, it is a damn Eldritch monster where everything was messed up!
Events he knows may happen but in a weird way because of this absurd mix!
A good example is this aberration that is the son of Sue and Doom, and the case of Valerie, none of this was in the main canon! In other words, it is some nonsense from some timeline he does not know. Or it could be something original from this universe because of the mixtures.
"I have to get out of here as soon as possible, Bully Maguire, I will be your neighbor!!"
While Adrian was freaking out for knowing too much, Jeff was sitting on the couch with the remote in hand enjoying the 80-inch television, he grabbed a raw fish from his tray, threw it up, and swallowed it whole.
"Awo." He nodded satisfied, this was the life he wanted!
Suddenly, the program Jeff was watching stopped and a woman with a terrified appearance appeared.
"Breaking news, the ruler of Latveria is visiting New York on a diplomatic mission."
"Awo!" Jeff does not care! Back to the marine life program!
Adrian on the other hand. "... Doom is coming... That brat... My God! Sue, control your womb, woman!" With Doom's visit at this very specific moment it is obvious his objective, he came to pay child support!
"My God, I want to stay as far away as possible from this drama, just don't destroy the planet." At this moment, Adrian's genius mind remembered a small detail that he ignored.
"... Galactus."
In the comics, when Sue's son demonstrated extreme potential, he was visited by Galactus, the big guy wanted Sue's son to take his place as the balance of the universe.
In some versions, Galactus thought that Sue's son could end his hunger, no matter the reason, what matters is that there is a possibility that he is coming!
'The new Fantastic Four movie starring Pedro 'I am anxious' Pascal addressed this subject, didn't it?' Adrian did not watch that movie, he only saw shorts of the silver surfer's speech, but through his friends, he got spoilers, therefore, he knows that Galactus appears.
"...", Adrian sighed, he sat calmly in his fluffy armchair and lifted his face upward, soon his all-seeing eyes looked at the sky.
With his current physique, he does not run the risk of becoming debilitated by overusing these eyes, he has a lot of stamina now. Adrian began to search, and thanks to the efficiency of the eyes of God, he quickly found a silver comet.
A woman with long silver hair and a completely silver body on top of a surfboard coming in the direction of Earth...
Adrian closed his eyes, and for a long 2 minutes, he thought about nothing, he just felt the sun touching his face... Until:
"MY GOD IN HEAVEN! THIS SHITTY UNIVERSE!" Adrian freaked out. "Why is all of this happening because of some snot-nosed brat!? My God, I hate the Fantastic Four plot!"
"Awo!?" Jeff was startled by Adrian's sudden shout!
"Jeff, I am going to work, make yourself comfortable in the mansion, just don't bite the furniture!"
"AWO!" Jeff huffed saying that he would not do that! He is not a dog!
Going down to the basement, Adrian entered his muscular Venom form.
"Venom civil engineer is online, Baby! Let's make our cave! And if possible cover it with Proto-adamantium in the future because this universe is shit!"
BOOOM! PAT PAT! VROOOMM!
Sounds of extreme construction!
...
1 hour later, a very futuristic and technological Batman lair was created!
How did he do it!? He does not know, he just did it! He had the project in mind, he had the resources, and therefore he did it!
Dakka!
Gathering the remaining scrap, he began to work again, this time in human form.
Pat, Pat! Boom, Boom!
A cloud of white smoke formed around him.
10 minutes later.
10 short minions were standing inactive, they were construction robots that he built to help him.
"Wake up, Minions!!"
"Banana?"
"Abububu."
"Dakka!"
"Droy!"
"My servants listen to me! You serve only me! I am your creator!"
"OOOOOOHHHHH!" The minions' eyes shone.
"From today onward, you will be the pillars of my future Empire! You will work for the Emperium of Adrian! For the golden throne! For me! For my future wives! You are the pillars of everything! Take your work!"
Adrian gave a tome to the closest Minion, when the Minion opened the tome, the paper fell to the floor and rolled to the end of the laboratory.
The laboratory had more than 500 square meters.
Far from being horrified, the Minions became even more excited, they had work! A lot of work!
"Priority number 1! Always listen to me, your leader and Emperor! Priority number 2! Make more minions! All the resources I have obtained so far are at your disposal, go crazy my minions!"
"OHHHHH!"
"Priority number 3, you must work until finishing this list!"
"Aye!" The 10 minions assumed a salute position.
"To work!"
"OHHHHHH!"
…
While Adrian focused on making weapons, swords, and a motorcycle for himself.
A bizarre scene happened with the minions, 5 minions responsible for building more minions gathered together, discussed something, they nodded as if everything was in the plan, then pulled construction tools from somewhere, and started hitting the resources spread around.
A small white smoke covered them, seconds later… A new minion appeared!
"Banana!"
"Abubu!"
"Dakka!"
"Dakka!!" They high-fived each other, the new Minion went to help in the construction of the base and then the others repeated the process.
Moments later the base had more than 200 minions! And it did not stop growing!
It was pure non-scientific nonsense! If Tony Stark and Reed were here, they would have an aneurysm because nothing made sense!
The only logic here was that there was no logic! The more Minions there were, and the more available resources there were, the faster the projects were completed.
Finishing making his weapons, Adrian threw everything into Venom's biomass, and when he looked back, he shouted.
"Huh!? You multiplied!? The base became even bigger than before!"
"Dakka!!" They all answered at the same time with shining eyes.
Instead of questioning his reality, Adrian accepted it, and smiled while laughing like a caricature villain: "HAHAHAHA Very good, my Minions! You are the best!"
"Keep working! You can use all my money, I do not care! Finish all the plans! I want this base to be perfect and perfectly protected!"
"OHHHHH!"
With the approval of their favorite villain, they worked even faster and more efficiently! Before they realized it, more than 1000 minions were created until they thought they had enough and began to focus on the other projects!
If they need more manpower, they will make more minions! But for now, focus on the main job.
"Dakka!"
…
Adrian left his laboratory and headed toward the mansion, he was much lighter now that he did not have many heavy things in his biomass.
"Jeff, I am going out, I left your fish in the freezer! Do not forget to greet our new friends!"
"Awo!"
"Do not forget to train!!"
"Awo..."
"Do not be lazy! I will give you a whale to eat!"
"AWOO!!!!" Fire of determination shone in Jeff's eyes, he quickly got off the couch and walked toward the base to talk to the minions about training ideas!
About what Jeff's training was? He does not know! But he trusts his little brother! He knows that he must be the most lethal Jeff in the universe!
Venom's Biomass grew on the ground, and soon a motorcycle came out of it, it was a robust black motorcycle, Cloud Strife's motorcycle from the Final Fantasy Advent Children movie.
The specifications were not the same as Cloud's, after all, the material is different, but the motorcycle was practically identical, it was made with the best materials available that he has on hand!
The motorcycle easily reaches 500 KM! And even better, since it was made by him, it completely merges with the symbiote! He even had Cloud's swords! Greatsword is for men!
Venom also did not fall behind, he is now not just biological material, he has armor worthy! The material may be the same, but not even a bullet will tickle the armor.
With Venom's constant evolution it was only a matter of time before he could use metals to strengthen himself just like his children!
How did he do this in such a short time!? The answer is:
Dakka!
When sitting on the motorcycle, the motorcycle transformed and became even more demonic, very similar to what Ghost Rider did, but this is the Venom edition, the transformed motorcycle not only had Spider-Man's powers of climbing walls and shooting webs, it could create its own track in the air as long as there were buildings nearby:
"Let's roll, Venom!"
"Yeah!" The voice came from the motorcycle itself.
VROOOOMM!
...
Fantastic Four building.
A tense and awkward atmosphere fell over the group.
"Sis, I know it's in our blood to be chickens, but you exaggerated!" Johnny Storm spoke.
He did not even know that his nephew was Doom's son! He thought he was Reed's son!
"Johnny! This is not the time!" Sue blushed in shame. "And it only happened once!"
Ben Grimm just remained silent while drinking his Whisky, he decided that he would not get involved in this problem.
Reed's face was a neutral expression, he had a lot of time to come to terms that his eldest son... must be the youngest son now since Valerie returned from the dimensional portal.
Anyway, he had time to come to terms that his youngest son was not his but the man in front of him.
"Doom is satisfied, he has potential to be the best prince."
"He is not your son, Victor!" Sue growled.
"Blood does not lie. He is strong in magic." Doom declared as if it were a fact.
"Reed, say something."
"This is between you, and the father of your son."
"... Reed." Sue sighed, the relationship between her and Reed was not good, they were not even a couple properly anymore, they were just together because they got used to each other's presence, and because they were a group of heroes… And because this company belongs to her family.
The relationship between them now was closer to that of an employee and boss, with Reed being the employee who contributed the most to the company, but of course she does not see it that way, and she does not throw that in Reed's face either.
Reed turned his face and went back to looking at the data on his tablet, to be honest, he was fed up with everything, Sue's constant 'slips' between Namor, the Doom case was only once, the Black Panther case was also one, at least that is what she says.
And to be honest, he does not trust her word much now, this situation was very problematic. Therefore, he decided not to get involved anymore.
Reed is not stupid, he is the smartest man in the universe [in his arrogant opinion], when his son was born, he already knew that he was not his, after all, his son exploded in 'magic', and no one here in the Fantastic Four has magic, except for his rival.
His son is strong in magic, extremely strong, and this morning he discovered that he is not only strong in magic, but seems to have some kind of power that he has never seen, he created a small Galaxy for God's sake!
He does not even know how this is possible! Not yet.
Therefore, yes. Putting all these facts together, he was fed up!
Reed knows that he is not perfect, he has his flaws and often prioritizes his work more than his family, but at least he never cheated on anyone! He has moral superiority in this matter!
On this particular subject the Fantastic Four were divided, Johnny as her brother wanted to support his sister, after all, their personalities were similar, but he always took care not to get anyone pregnant, therefore, he remained silent.
Ben washed his hands of this a long time ago, and does not get involved anymore, as long as Doom does not start harming his friends, he will not move.
"Doom, can't you wait a bit, he is just a child." Johnny spoke. "Let him stay with his mother." He tried to help his sister.
"Johnny, you slept with my wife."
Johnny felt as if he had been slapped in the face: "... Damn it, it was only once!"
"It was 10 times during your entire stay in my country, the robots recorded everything." He spoke in a clinical tone, as if he did not care at all, which was true, he is more interested in his boy now, not in past matters.
Not to mention that he already had the satisfaction of his revenge, proof of that was the boy in front of him!
"Ugh."
"Doom already expelled her, do not worry." Of course his expulsion is a direct passage to hell, but Johnny does not need to know that.
"...." Johnny raised his hand to say something, but only sighed, he knows that he had no moral superiority to talk about this matter, after all, he slept with Doom's wife!
Ben and Reed looked at Johnny in shock, and then just shook their heads, brother and sister were the same.
Valerie who was sitting nearby just stared at the drama with a neutral look, logically speaking this situation is a mess, emotionally speaking, she does not want to deal with this drama! After all, it is not her problem!
She just promised herself not to be like her mother! She will not let her emotions get out of control, and if one day she dates and no longer wants to be with that guy, she will end it and move on, that way she avoids drama.
Doom suddenly moved with the majesty of a King. "Appear insect, I know you are there." He narrowed his eyes at the ceiling, the room before was without presence, but suddenly, his magic felt something, a visitor just arrived.
"!!?"
The Fantastic Four immediately sprang into action, Johnny burst into flames, Thing prepared himself, Sue covered her hands with force fields, and Reed spoke:
"Herbie? Find hostiles."
"Hostiles not found, Sir."
"Huh?"
"Do not try, he is using some kind of magic to interfere with the equipment, but he cannot deceive Doom." He looked at the broken window through which the intruder entered.
'Impressive abilities.' If it were not for his magic, he would not have noticed.
In the dark corner of the ceiling, two white eyes opened.
