Marvel: The Convergence Of Souls
Chapter 67 - Finding Victor
"Just doing the final touches and... BOOM! All done!" Reed said happily.
Sue flashed a small smile but quickly hid it when Reed smiled at her for being able to make her smile. She scowled at him instead.
It had been a few days, and we already finished on the project with the help of a true heavy lifter named Ben. He was so strong he moved bits that we would usually need cranes for. I didn't do anything though because it was fun to watch Ben labor while sitting back and just typing on a computer. Plus as I have said before, I would rather keep my strength secret from as many people as I can. The element of surprise is often what leads to a win.
The tension here though had been... rough. Ben and Sue refused to talk to Reed any more than necessary while Reed kept desperately trying to do nice things to make them forgive him. It sort of looked like a dog trying to please its owner. My opinion anyway but I did not voice it because Reed brought me ice cream on many occasions. But he never bought enough! His excuse was that [if I carry any more Ice cream, my spine will break from the weight! I already got a nearly broken toe from four tubs landing on it, and if it wasn't for my stretchiness as you like to call it then it would have broke!] He made up so many dumb excuses. Who cares if he breaks his spine? My ice cream was much more important.
"Ok, everyone suit up!" I said with a grin at being able to say that.
"Us? No, I have been in that dimension enough thank you!" Jonny said and tried to walk away.
The key point in that was the word [tried]. Ben blocked him with one of his big arms.
"We were part of the reason he got trapped in there. We owe it to him to try and get him out!" Ben says sternly not taking no for an answer.
After we finished dragging a kicking and screaming Jonny into one of the pods and Reed got a bandaid for his burn we started the initiation sequence for our second trip to Planet Zero.
"Are you guys ready?" I ask with a grin. This thrill is what life was about! Am I becoming a thrill seeker? I will have to jump out of a plane with no parachute. If I get a thrill from it, then I am. Hehe, I am going to new levels of extreme sports. Wonder if I can convince Thor to go bungee jumping with me? An idea for another time.
"If we die, I blame all of you!" Jonny cries out.
"Stop being such a baby." Sue reprimands her little brother in a stern voice. Then switching to a sweet and loving one, she says, "Babe be careful, okay?" In the past few days, we had gotten closer and made our relationship known to the others.
"Of course," I said an even broader smile adorning my face.
"HERE, WE GO!" Bens naturally loud voice rang over the speaker in my suit.
Everything goes black.
I wake up an unknown period of time later staring up at a sky filled only with black clouds. I look out to see that I was in what seemed like a wasteland with jagged rocks sticking out everywhere and red channels of what looked like lava flowing between cracks in the ground.
"Damn I hate how this place looks." Jonny's voice rang over the microphone. I guess he must be up to then?
"Suck it up buŧŧercup," Sue says again then turns to the direction she knew I was.
"Are you alright, babe?" She asks with worry in her voice.
"HEY! Why do you sound so sweet and worried when you talk to him but not me? So unfair!" Jonny complains.
Sue jerks her head, angrily over towards Jonny's direction again. "Man up. Life isn't fair, so stop your pity party and get over it." She says with no remorse in her voice.
Jonny makes shuffling noises, which I ȧssume was him making himself seem small and makes scared and sad noises. I chuckle at there antics. "I am fine Sue, thanks for asking. And you?" I ask reciprocating her worry.
"Fine. Ben you ok?" Sue asks out to Ben.
"YEAH." Bens deep voice rumbles through my cabin. I open up the lid and step out into the barren wasteland.
"Come out guys it's safe. We are not over a cliff or anything." I said and chuckled at the thought of Jonny screaming as he opens his door and falls down screaming. He is smart, but under pressure, he becomes an idiot. He would probably forget he could fly.
Everyone got out of there cabins and stood next to me, observing the landscape.
"Where do you think he is? And how on earth did he survive here?" Sue asks what I was thinking.
"I suppose... He must have gotten a power that allowed him too. Or..." I said, thinking about the other possibility.
"You don't actually think there are any here?" Ben asks as he opens his eyes wide.
"As scientists, we can't discount any possibility unless proven that it is not possible," I said, thinking it over. I did not remember there being any mention of them here in the movies, but Reed must have gotten nutrients from somewhere! Pure energy wasn't enough to survive on. Not with the powers, Victor had at least.
"You really think aliens could live here?" Jonny asks.
"It is possible." I thought. Victor could manipulate energy after all, but he could not become self-sustaining. He needed some sort of nutrient source, and I did not see any.
"I knew you would come sooner or later. You cannot stay away, huh? But you came sooner than I thought you would." A voice rang out from behind a boulder, and a stumbling and cloaked figure came out.
"Victor?"
