(I can't believe I'm actually updating this but I've added a little here and there over the past two years and I just thought I might as well post it. It's not much but I figure it's better than nothing. I might continue updating this story or I might not.)

"Put Fury through now!" Logan yelled into his phone. The X-Men just got back to the Mansion to find Xavier in a coma. Using his telepathy on those two really took its toll on him. The Brotherhood must have woken up because they were long gone. Logan had been trying to get in touch with Nick Fury for the past hour but as usual, he was getting the run around.

"Hello Logan." said Fury's voice on the other end, catching Logan by surprise. "What did you do with Banner and Toad?" Wolverine demanded. "Let's get one thing straight Logan. Just the fact that I'm talking with you at all is a courtesy. Those two are going into cryo-freeze permanently." said Fury.

"You expect me to believe that you're just going to lock them up and throw away the key? Don't make me laugh Fury, I know you've got people experimenting on them right now." said Logan. "This conversation is over." Fury said before hanging up.

Emil Blonsky stood looking at the two subjects in cryo-freeze. Banner and Toad were finally contained, at least for the moment. The Cube was designed to contain gamma radiation meta humans but Emil doubted it could hold these two if they broke free. No matter though, Blonsky finally had what he wanted. Sterns was going over test results on their DNA, hopefully he would find the key to their power.

"Bruce Banner's transformation was a fluke, a once in a lifetime accident. But Toad wasn't. His DNA is able to absorb the DNA and RNA sequences of viruses and bacteria. That gives him an incredibly efficient immune system, he's probably never been sick a day in his life. But I found traces of Banner's DNA inside of him. Tolensky must have ingested some of it and his immune system absorbed it thinking it was a disease. Banner's DNA and radiation became a part of Toad's own and hence that explains how the boy became what he is today." said Sterns.

"That's very interesting Doctor but how does it help us?" Blonsky asked impatiently. "By using a retrovirus with Toad's DNA and mix in Banner's as well, I can repeat the same process on anyone. Now, it won't exactly be safe. My guess is that only a small percentage of test subjects would be able to survive but…" said Sterns. "How long before you can work something up?" said Blonsky, not patient. "I already created a retrovirus to this situation. The problem was that Banner's DNA wasn't compatible with human DNA anymore. But with Toad's DNA acting as a carrier, I can finally make it work." said Sterns.

"Agent Blonsky, Director Fury is on line 4. He's demanding to speak with you." came a voice on the overhead. Blonsky walked over to a nearby wall phone and picked it up. "Director, what can I do for you?" asked Blonsky. "I understand you only have Sterns working on Banner and Tolensky." said Fury. Blonsky cringed, he was hoping that the man wouldn't have found out about that just yet. Clearly not every man in the Cube was completely loyal to Emil.

"They're just preliminary tests sir…" Emil started to say. "Save it. I don't know what you're up to Blonsky but it ends now. I'm having Banner and Toad transferred to the Raft." interrupted Fury. "What? But the Cube is more the sufficient for contain them." protested Blonsky. "Agent Blonsky, let me give you some career advice. If you want to continue working for SHIELD, don't ever question my orders again. I want the two prepped for transport immediately." Fury said before the line went dead.

Blonsky threw the phone into the wall, shattering it. He was so close to immortality, he wasn't going to let that one-eyed old fossil stop him now. "Prep your retrovirus immediately." Blonsky told Sterns. "Are you crazy? I haven't even tested it yet. For all we know, it could kill you." protested Sterns. "This is my one chance to become a god. I'm not going to waste it. Get it ready and fast." said Blonsky.

"The only way to make it faster is to accelerate the virus with a Gamma ray blast. We have no idea what that could do to you." said Sterns. Blonsky grabbed him by the neck, slamming into the wall. "Ok ok. I just thought you should be warned." choked Sterns

The X-Men sat around in the living room, all silent and unsure what to do next. Bayville had become a ghost town, everyone inside mostly moved to emergency shelters. Rebuilding the city would cost several trillions of dollars or it could become like the areas around Chernobyl, abandoned. Logan came running into the room, suited up. "Fury just called me. He says they have a problem." he said.

Nick Fury was going to kill Blonsky for this. A few minutes after he gave that man the transfer orders, the entire Cube went dark. As a matter of protocol, SHIELD quarantined the area around the facility and waited for the Director to arrive. Tanks and choppers along with Hulkbusters surrounded the large facility, ready to blast anything that came out.

"Director Fury." the Commander said, saluting him. "Report." ordered Fury. "The scouting team we sent in has gone dark. We haven't been able to reach them for ten minutes." replied the Commander.

Three choppers landed nearby. One contained the X-Men. Another contained Betsy, Leo, Talbet, and Ross. The final one contained Fury's two best agents: Hawkeye and Black Widow. After everyone got off their rides, Fury waited no time in getting to the point.

"Two hours ago, all communications with this facility was lost. For those of you who don't know what the Cube is, it's a prison designed to contain gamma related mutations like the Hulk. And whatever is going on in there isn't mechanical failure." said Fury. "Let me guess, Agent Blonsky is playing his own angle." said Ross. "I could have told you that just from seeing him with Sterns." said Leo. "So what do you need us for?" asked Scott. "In case things go bad and I have a feeling that they will." said Fury.

The top of the Cube exploded as an object came flying out. It came crashing down on top of a tank, crushing it like a beer can. The green creature was enormous, at least twice the size of the Hulk and Bane. It had reptilian and amphibian features like scales and webbed appendages. Instantly, every military vehicle aimed and opened fire on him. It laughed as every bullet, missile, and grenade did little more then amuse him.

It clapped its hand together, sending a shockwave into the air that knocked down every helicopter. The Hulkbusters begin firing their railguns but even those do nothing against him. It lifted up its arms and slammed them down, creating a fissure that swallowed up the Hulkbusters. Bullets and explosions continued to bounce off his skin but the creature clearly was in no pain.

It eyed Fury, stepping forward towards him. Hawkeye and Widow aimed their weapons at it but realistically, they weren't going to do much. "Director, let me give you some career advice. Don't ever stir up the wrath of a god." it said with Blonsky's voice. It leaped into the air, disappearing over the horizon.

"What was that thing?!" screamed Bobby. "It was like some kind of abomination." said Talbet. "That was Blonsky. No wonder he wanted Bruce and Toad so bad." said Leo. "This is your fault Fury! If you had just let my people handle the situation, this would have never happened!" yelled Ross.

"Can we all kill each other later? There's a big green thing running around and just talking here isn't going to stop him." said Kitty.

"One phone call from me to the Pentagon and I will hit him with the entire United States Armed Force." said Ross.

"I have a funny feeling that won't be enough." said Betsy.
