In the corridors and hallways of the third floor of Pym Technologies, the server had gone haywire. The lights went out, plunging the area into darkness, with only a handful of special bulbs casting a dim glow.
When the security personnel, who were searching for intruders, collided with the drones pursuing and besieging Ant-Man, both parties hesitated for a mont.
"Those are the intruders' drones! Shoot them down!"
A voice suddenly rang out among the security team. Without a second thought, the other guards quickly raised their weapons and fired at the flying drones, killing several of them instantly.
"Self-defense mode activated. Priority target: Enemies."
The drones were not to be outdone. Their flashing green lights turned red and they turned to fire back at the guards below.
In less than ten seconds, the battle between man and machine had erupted. Inside Pym Technologies, the situation quickly descended into chaos, turning the building into a battlefield of gunfire and explosions.
"I'm a genius."
Scott, in his Ant-Man form, panted slightly as he looked back at the chaotic battle raging behind him. After managing to shake off the drones, he sprinted and leaped toward the second floor.
Scott quickly changed the frequency of his communicator. After a short delay filled with static, Hank Pym's worried voice ca through: "Scott? How are you two doing? Did you complete the mission?"
"It's all fake!" Scott yelled as he ran. "Everything is fake! Not just the Wasp suit - even the person in charge of Pym Technologies isn't Cross. It's an unknown enemy who's been impersonating him and orchestrating this whole thing. Their target is the original Ant-Man suit I'm wearing!"
"What did you say?"
Hank was stunned on the other end of the line. But as the first Ant-Man, he quickly regained his composure and asked urgently, "Are you two okay?"
"I sent Antony to get Hope out of the building. You can et her. I'm on the stairs inside the building, almost to the first floor."
Scott reached the last step of the second floor and took a powerful leap. Although the stairs seed like a steep drop to his shrunken form, the unique properties of the Pym Particle allowed him to retain the strength and agility of his full-sized self, enabling him to clear the large drop in a single bound.
Just as he landed on the first floor stairs, a massive shadow lood over him. Scott quickly glanced to the side and saw that a huge Earth Elental was waiting for him in the lobby. Seeing him, the earth elental imdiately raised its hand to strike.
"Again? I won't fall for the sa projection trick twice."
Scott's first instinct was to ignore the Earth Elental's attack, but as the massive hand descended upon him, an alarm bell rang in his mind - a feeling that sothing terrible would happen if he didn't dodge.
Without hesitation, Scott followed his instincts and jumped off the side of the stairs. But he was a mont too late. The Earth Elental's giant hand grazed him, sending him flying through the air. As he soared, his body returned to normal human size.
The Earth Elental's hand continued down, smashing into the reinforced glass staircase, shattering it into countless pieces that scattered everywhere.
A few shards landed near Scott, who lay on the ground clutching his injured left shoulder. His pupils constricted in shock as he stared at the roaring, angry earth elental.
This ti it was for real!
The Earth Elental was no false projection!
"Are you okay, Scott?" Hank's worried voice ca through the communicator after hearing the loud crash.
"I'm okay for now, but that might change soon."
Scott smiled bitterly as he struggled to his feet, keeping his eyes on the approaching earth elental. He reached into his pocket and pulled out two capsules - secret weapons he had prepared during his Ant-Man training specifically for dealing with Earth elentals.
"Co on, co on! If it's just one of them, and it's earth-based, I should be able to win..."
Scott took quick, shallow breaths to calm himself. The earth elental didn't care about his nerves. Its five ter tall body, made of solid rock and sand, took a step forward and raised its massive fists to smash down on him.
The mont the fists ca down, Scott moved. He dove forward, dodging the blow and slipping between the Earth Elental's legs. As he did so, he threw one of the capsules at the creature's sandy lower body.
The tiny capsule struck the earth elental's foot, and with a loud "boom," it expanded into a massive capsule with a radius of three ters. The thin outer shell of the capsule shattered, releasing the water inside like a deep sea bomb that exploded outward.
Water counters Earth!
The torrent of water crashed into the Earth Elental, causing it to howl in pain. Its stone and sand limbs crumbled, and the giant's massive body fell to the ground.
"It's working!" Scott's eyes lit up. After his previous escape from the police station, he had designed the water ball capsules specifically as a weapon against Earth elentals. He hadn't expected them to be so effective.
One after another, the water ball capsules rained down like bombs, continuously hitting the Earth Elental and causing the sand and stones that made up its body to erode and disintegrate.
When Scott threw the last globe, the water destroyed the Elental's core. As a hidden red energy within it dissipated, the Earth Elental completely disintegrated into a pile of wet sand.
"Phew, good thing I had enough of those," Scott sighed in relief. But as he watched, the water in the lobby suddenly began to gather and coalesce, just as the sand had before, forming limbs and facial features.
A water elental...
"Seriously, not again," Scott's smile froze on his face. Feeling a chill at the back of his neck, he turned around to see a gust of wind whipping into a tornado, sweeping up sand and shards of glass in its path.
A wind elental...
"This is trouble," Scott muttered. He hadn't prepared any special tools to deal with wind and water elentals.
Maybe he should run?
Just as the thought crossed Scott's mind, a heavy thud ca from above, from the roof of the company building.
'Crack-'
A crack appeared in the ceiling of the fifth floor, quickly expanding until the ceiling gave way and collapsed. Two figures, one black and one red, fell through the hole.
"I told you to stop following and get back to your howork, kid!"
"No way! Take it back!"
As if realizing they were about to hit the ground, the two intertwined figures released each other in unison. One of them landed directly on the ground, cracking it from the force of the impact, while the other shot out a web mid-fall, using it to swing and slow his descent.
"Who are you guys?" Scott asked, completely confused as he looked at the two newcors who had fallen from the sky.
One was a tall, muscular figure in a black suit covered in white fla-like patterns. The other was shorter, clad in a blue and red suit with spider-like markings, but his tight uniform still accentuated a well-toned physique.
They were none other than Agent Venom, Eddie, and Spider-Man, Peter.
