“This is impossible! Holander has gone mad!”
In Vought’s office, Madelyn spat out the coffee she had just sipped. She could not believe what she had just heard, Holander, in front of live caras, had said sothing utterly absurd!
The Norse god Thor? The God of Thunder from Asgard?
Such nonsense, only fit for children, and Holander was actually saying it on cara! Was he insane, or did he have so ulterior motive?
Madelyn didn’t believe Holander had lost his mind, so she was more inclined to think that he had so hidden agenda behind this bizarre statent, perhaps trying to manipulate public opinion for his own goals.
Madelyn wasn’t the only one who didn’t believe it. No one else did either.
Even Tek Knight, who was currently at Supe Entertainnt’s base, preparing for an alien tech brain tumor surgery, didn’t believe what Roger had said.
He turned to the Winter Soldier with his tal arm and asked, “So, what's your plan? So sort of god-making project?”
“No, this may sound hard to believe…” the Winter Soldier replied, “but Roger is telling the truth. That man really is Thor, the Asgardian god who’s lived for over five thousand years.”
Before the Winter Soldier finished speaking, Ant-Man, who was wearing regular clothes and a layer of synthetic skin, chid in.
“Although, he shouldn’t be called the God of Thunder anymore. He’s the All-Father now. I don’t know all the details, but I heard that Odin, the forr king, passed the throne to him before he died. Then there was sothing about Ragnarok… Anyway, I don’t know the full story. You’d have to ask him when he gets back.”
Ant-Man had initially planned to ramble on and on, but seeing the cold glare from the Winter Soldier, he decided to summarize it as briefly as possible.
Tek Knight stood there, mouth agape, staring at Ant-Man like he was hearing gibberish. After a long pause, he finally said.
“…Either I’ve lost my mind or you all have… Oh, right, I’m the one with a brain tumor… Damn, now everything sounds like crazy talk to …”
“…Dude, I’m serious,” Ant-Man added helplessly, seeing Tek Knight’s disbelief.
Natasha, who had been silently organizing so files, suddenly joined the conversation: “If you tell them Thor is a god, they won’t believe you. You’d have better luck explaining that he’s an alien. That might be easier for them to grasp.”
“No!” Tek Knight interrupted. “Actually, god works better for . I think the idea of aliens would freak out even more!… Ugh, whatever, I’ll just go ahead with the surgery.”
Tek Knight felt like he was dreaming, or maybe Roger’s companions were all a little off. Even Roger himself was far from normal!
He had disappeared suddenly, then reappeared just as abruptly, and now he’d brought back people who clearly didn’t seem like they were from Earth. After all, Earthlings don’t have the technology to shrink and grow at will!
Yet, his rational mind refused to accept that these people were aliens. Sohow, the notion of gods seed more palatable to him.
Natasha shrugged, indicating that Tek Knight could believe whatever he wanted. Then she turned to Banner and asked, “Banner, have you found anything?”
“Hm…” Banner, using the tablet he had brought from the Marvel universe and connected to The Boys world’s network, replied, “Most of it aligns with what Roger said.
The technology in this world is sowhat behind, and we can understand nearly all of it, except for this Compound V…”
“The one that turns people into superpowered beings? Roger ntioned it before. Do you think if I injected Compound V, I could shrink without needing my suit?” Ant-Man asked, suddenly intrigued.
The Winter Soldier imdiately threw cold water on that idea: “That’s assuming your chanically enhanced body can even handle the injection.”
“…Oh, now I’m heartbroken,” Ant-Man sighed dramatically, while Hope, standing next to him, shook her head, clearly used to Scott’s habit of getting off-topic at the worst tis.
While they were chatting, the broadcast of Roger’s performance on TV continued.
Roger knew no one would believe his claims, so he didn’t bother trying to prove anything.
He simply announced to the world that the god Thor from Asgard would be staying on Earth for a few days, helping to deal with the issue of supercriminals.
The public had no idea what Roger’s true intentions were. They just assud he was introducing a new hero for Super Entertainnt.
Even Vought thought the sa.
After watching Roger’s broadcast, Natasha turned to Tek Knight and said, “Mr. Knight, right? Roger ntioned that you have most of Vought’s dirty secrets?”
“Yes… and the scandals involving their Supes. Why do you ask? Do you need them?”
Natasha smiled. “Yes. I think it’s ti we released all of them.”
“…All of them?”
“Yes, everything, including Roger’s.”
Tek Knight’s eyes widened as he looked from Natasha to the others in the room, asking incredulously, “Aren’t you here to help him?”
Banner stepped forward to explain, “We are here to help him, but that doesn’t an we’ll ignore what Holander has done.
His scandals will eventually co out, one way or another. Better we control that narrative than let Vought do it.”
“…I see,” Tek Knight said, now understanding. He rembered an ancient Chinese proverb: “Put yourself in danger to seek survival.”
It seed this was Dr. Banner’s strategy. Tek Knight also realized that if they were willing to take this step, they probably had a plan in place to handle the fallout.
And Tek Knight had an idea of what that plan might be, it was likely they would claim that the current Holander had a split personality or, more radically, that he was an imposter, a decoy created to take the fall for all of Holander’s misdeeds.
Whatever their plan was, Tek Knight knew they would ensure that events unfolded according to their design. So, he didn’t argue further and simply followed their lead.
“Shall I start with Vought’s secrets, then?” Tek Knight asked.
Natasha nodded. “Release part of it first. As for the rest…”
Scott and Hope exchanged glances before chiming in, “We’ll head to Vought to gather more intel. When we’re done, we can release the remaining information along with what we find.”
With that, Scott activated his suit, shrinking down instantly, while Hope, already suited up, did the sa. Together, they left the Supe Entertainnt building.
Once Scott and Hope had departed, Roger returned, walking in with Thor, who had a person slung over his shoulder. Behind them trailed Kimiko and Starlight.
“Hm? Why hasn’t the surgery started yet?” Roger asked, noticing that Tek Knight was still standing there.
Natasha turned around with a smile. “We were just verifying the information about this world and finalizing our next steps.”
“Any leads?”
“If all goes as planned, we’ll take down Vought in three days. Honestly, I’m surprised your biggest problem is… well, a company like this.”
Natasha wasn’t implying that Vought was strong. On the contrary, she found it surprisingly weak.
It was nowhere near the level of Thanos and his forces, not even as formidable as HYDRA, which had torn apart S.H.I.E.L.D. It didn’t even match up to Hamr Industries, which had once been a rival to Stark Industries.
The only noteworthy things about Vought were Compound V and their influence in the entertainnt industry, but those shouldn’t have been much of a challenge for Roger.
So Natasha was genuinely curious as to why Roger considered Vought such a headache.
