He knew that he didn't have much ti to think before he had to act since there were 5 people closing in on his location quickly.
Making a quick decision, Alex took control of the dead body of his temporary vessel and made him stand up. He had to take control of the person's body and couldn't morph into him since the caras might recognize that he was not the sa person as before.
As the guy stood up, Alex tried to act normal and say that he was fine but those guards kept approaching him.
"I'm telling you, I'm fine!" He showed so panic as five guards surrounded him with what seed like stun batons in their hands.
"Stand down, sir. Do not resist." One of the people approached him with a threatening voice and tried to get him to surrender. They were probably going to take him for a psych evaluation.
Alex understood the situation and felt like this would be the perfect opportunity to infiltrate the facility. He raised his hands behind his head and surrendered while grumbling.
"Fine, fine… I was just tired. I didn't get any dinner yesterday…" He made an excuse that no one would believe. As he grumbled to them, one of the people approached him and cuffed his hands behind his back.
'Now's my chance.' He thought as he took the opportunity that the person was touching him to move his body and go into the other guard's body.
He left a tiny part within the dead person too since he didn't want to make the situation suspicious. Without him, the dead body would instantly fall. He was going to abandon the guy when they bring him to an interrogation room so that it doesn't trace back to the person that Alex was in.
And for the symbiote part within the guy, Alex would terminate that clone while disintegrating the part left within the dead guy. He wasn't going to risk any parts of his body getting into the hands of these people. Especially since they might already have so information about the Venom symbiote and end up tracing him through that information.
They called soone who seed to be their superior and explained the situation to him. He agreed to take the person that Alex was impersonating for a psych evaluation as per their usual practices. The conversation gave Alex all the confirmation that he needed to confirm that they were against the X-n and mutants in general.
This was because this psychic defense was a precaution against Charles Xavier aka Professor X.
The squad of guards along with the leader escorted their new prisoner to the entrance of the building while Alex paid full attention to what was going on. He was mapping out whatever parts of the building he was seeing and looking for blind spots where he might be able to hide.
The leader approached the entrance and scanned his eyes in what seed like a retina scanner before the doors to the building opened.
'The facility isn't completely accessible to these guards, at least not without valid reasoning.' Alex deduced as he saw the situation.
'I really wish I could read these guys' mories and get it done with…' Alex realized that not being able to read people's mories was very inconvenient. He'd tried to prevent the fail-safe from activating but he wasn't able to do anything as the guy's entire brain was fried within re monts. It was designed to counter Charles Xavier— one of the most renowned telepaths within the superhero community. It wasn't going to be possible for Alex to get rid of that fail-safe any ti soon.
His ntal manipulation wasn't that good yet, though he was going to practice it with Wanda since Chaos Magic would be a very good dium to work these abilities. Wanda also has quite a few ntal manipulation abilities and their training would help her out too.
*Beep*
The huge tallic door slid open to the side and it allowed everyone to enter. It led to a lobby area with what seed like an in-depth monitoring device that one would have to pass to move into the building. Alex was a little nervous about the situation but he was also confident in his hiding abilities.
He was perfectly emulating the dead guy's brain waves so it should be very difficult for that machine to detect him.
'It's probably made as a defense chanism against shapeshifters like Mystique… How deep does their conflict with the mutants go?' Alex was a little weirded out about this situation. They had so many precautions specifically against mutants.
'Whatever…' Alex stopped thinking about unnecessary things and focused his efforts on suppressing his presence within the current temporary vessel while emulating the guy he'd killed as well as possible so that they could get entry into the facility.
Soon, it was the turn of Alex's current temporary vessel.
*Beep*
'Hah… Thank fuck…' Alex let out the taphorical breath that he'd been holding. The dead guy also ended up getting through the detector since Alex's emulation of the guy's actions was perfectly within the acceptable range.
He finally got the ti to observe his surroundings at this point in ti.
'This isn't a holding facility… Far from it actually… It's a research facility.' Alex realized that appearances could be pretty deceiving. The inside of the place was like a huge lab that had all kinds of equipnt.
He assud that this facility was restricted from the public since this facility was probably where the most sensitive and classified items were developed. One of those items was the Extremis formula, it was sothing that Alex desperately wanted so that he could mitigate his weakness against sound and heat. At the very least he wanted to understand how Extremis works so that he could apply it and gain so semblance of heat and sound resistance.
He also wanted to know who or what was behind the supply of the regeneration dicines. He wanted to devour the source of those potions since he knew that it would be a potent source of biological energy or EP.
Though, after entering the building, the new leader of the party went to the elevators as the rest of the squad followed behind him while keeping the dead guy that Alex was puppeteering restrained.
Then, inside the elevator, the button that he pressed wasn't for an upper floor as Alex thought, but for a lower floor. They were going underground.
Finally, everyone stopped in front of a glass office, the naplate on the door said Dr. Hall. The person inside seed like he was in his 50s with so grayed-out hair and slightly wrinkled skin. It was clear that he didn't use the Extremis de-aging technology. It was also possible that he hadn't used it in a while. He was typing sothing out on a holographic keyboard in classic Tony Stark style. It showed that the technology in this city was much more advanced and accessible.
"I'll take him from here. You all should stay outside." The leader gripped the arm of their prisoner and pulled him into the office of Dr. Hall.
Alex took the opportunity to transfer so biomass into the body that was controlling the dead person and split most of the newly added biomass from the body to go into the new leader. He repeated the process that he'd done with the other guy, leaving a tiny sliver puppeteering the dead guy. He knew that using the leader as a vessel would be more beneficial for him since the guy seed to have higher authority.
"Oh? Hello, Douglas. Who is this unfamiliar face?" Dr. Hall looked over and called out the leader who'd brought everyone into the facility. Apparently, the leader's na was Douglas.
"Dr. Hall," He greeted with a nod and continued, "We have a potential mind-invaded person. It's possible that he's been influenced by so sort of psychic interference. As per contingency number 68 against psychic defenses, I have brought him here for a psych evaluation." Douglas reported to Dr. Hall with a tone that conveyed that he wasn't officially below the doctor in rank, but the doctor was more valued by the people. Or maybe he was in the doctor's political faction.
Such a huge organization within the city would definitely have massive political undercurrents going on.
The doctor's phone rang.
"I see. Give a mont. Take a seat with our friend here. I'll get back to you in a minute." The doctor told Douglas and answered the call, "Yes, Isiah?"
"Is that so?" The doctor's face developed a frown after hearing what Isiah said.
"These incompetent fucks…" He mumbled as he hung up the call.
"Douglas, I'll take care of your friend's psych eval, I need you to do sothing for ."
"Don't say it." Douglas had an irritating frown on his face. It seed like this wasn't a novel situation to either of them.
"I'm afraid that I must. Isiah's team needs more samples, I need you to bring the subject to them." The doctor had a tone of finality in his words.
"Damn it, Hall. Every single day for the past two weeks." Douglas had an extrely annoyed look on his face.
"The usual guy was injured, Doug. He'll be back to work next week. I need you to do this for now." It seed that Dr. Hall was used to this sort of outburst.
"Fine whatever…" He sighed since he knew that he would have to do this.
"I'll take care of the psych eval. And for god's sake, send those guards outside. I don't want soone touching sothing dangerous and turning into a fire monster this ti." He told Douglas.
"That Electric guy's still not normalized?" Doug asked with a gossipy tone.
"He's serving as a nice battery for us, so it's fine." Dr. Hall didn't seem to care much, "Now get to it. You know how cranky Isiah can get." The doctor hurried him away.
"Fine." He got up and left the office.
After telling the guards that were waiting outside the office to leave the building and guiding them away, Douglas went back to the elevator and pressed the button to the lowest floor.
"Why does it have to be …" He was mumbling all sorts of complaints as the elevator lowered.
*Ding*
The elevator door slid open at the lowest up to a large dimly lit open area with a glass box in the center of the room. There were caras pointing at every single angle within the room with automatic weapons also pointing at the glass cage in the center. So of them are visible and so of them are hidden.
In the cage, there was a person who was sitting while curled up into a ball. Realizing that soone had arrived, she looked up.
'Laura Kinney?!'
