Earth-838, Negative Zone, Susan Storm

Earth-838, Alternate Reality,

While Noah and Wanda were still speculating on how to act with their unexpected new visitor from an alternate reality, the people affiliated with Franklin Richards weren't having an easy time.

It was pure chaos, madness, and immense worry for The Richards family.

The Richards family consisted of Reed Richards, Susan Storm, and Franklin Richards.

Reed Richards was a monstrous genius, one of the smartest people in the Marvel Multiverse.

Reed could be put on the same list with the likes of Tony Stark, Hank Pym, Victor Von Doom, and Thanos.

He was a godly inventor, capable of creating powerful weapons and technology that could affect the entire multiverse such as the Anti-matter Injection System.

He was better known as Mr. Fantastic by everyone.

Sue Storm, also known as Invisible Woman, was his wife.

Well, the history behind their meeting and relationship was way before they had the chance to encounter the Cosmic rays.

Anyway, Sue was a sweetheart and together with Reed, they managed to give rise to the third member of the family, their son, Franklin Richards.

Currently, the Richards couple could be seen on high alert in a kind of futuristic white lab holding complicated technology and machines that are outrightly capable of altering the laws of physics.

[SUE'S POV]

I am Susan Storm or better known by humanity as Invisible Woman, a member of the Fantastic Four.

Our love, Reed's and mine led me to carry an unborn soul in my womb.

I became pregnant, in short.

I was happy, truly happy.

I was really going to become a mother and I loved it.

I had already started making plans in my mind on how I will spoil my little boy, well, don't be surprised, I just knew it would have been a boy.

A mother's intuition, sixth sense maybe? Or was it just my powers at work?

To be honest, it didn't matter to me.

I was an expectant mother, that's all that had mattered.

My joy wasn't meant to stay for long when Reed told me about the complications that may plague the birth of my son due to my own physiology and unforeseen circumstances brought by the cosmic radiations.

I, for one, was also at risk.

I didn't want to lose my son so I had Reed use his big-ass brain to think up the perfect solution to stabilize our child's powers.

I believed in him, just as I had the belief that my son would eventually make it.

Reed didn't disappoint but the key to the solution was something troubling.

To visit the unknown, a different continuum from our Earth's space-time.

It was a place better known as the Negative Zone, a realm that was immensely opposite to ours.

It had the name "Negative" for a reason since it lacked the most basic things that you could find on Earth like water.

They say the universe is always expanding infinitely, but surprisingly the negative zone undergoes contraction instead.

We had to assemble the Fantastic Four once again together with the Illuminati, an organization founded by this Universe's Sorcerer Supreme.

Due to my circumstances, I didn't take part in the expedition.

I had been extremely worried as I awaited the good news from my husband and his team.

Good Lord, they had indeed succeeded.

With the power of the Cosmic Rod, a powerful object of the Negative Realm and something that I didn't care to know how they managed to bring into their custody, Franklin Richards was born.

His name, Franklin, was in memory of my father, Franklin Storm.

How I had missed that old fox!

Franklin was the apple of my eye, more so than Reed who was always into research and experimentation.

Franklin was more intelligent than normal kids, and well, as expected he was a mutant.

Reed and I were mutates due to the cosmic radiations, so the probability of Franklin becoming a mutant was extremely high.

What I hadn't anticipated was that my boy was actually a very powerful mutant to boot.

His powers started manifesting when he was one year old!

Now that brings us to the current problematic situation...

"Reed, you better find my son or else..." I don't know why I was angry and acting all grumpy toward Reed.

"Calm down Sue!" Reed frowned while operating on a newly invented machine to help alleviate our situation.

"You know better than anyone that I wouldn't wish for anything bad to happen to our boy."

"Like hell I know," I shouted while pacing around the room.

Gosh, were my periods finally catching up at a time like this?

"Spatial coordinates have been gauged."

"Earth-616 has been marked."

"The Entity "Franklin Richards" has been found."

"Connecting "The Bridge" to the hyperspace..."

"Universal Travel can now be initiated at any moment!"

A robotic voice was heard when Reed finished typing on the computer.

His newly invented model "The Bridge" was now on board.

It looked like a circular metallic gate whose materials were extremely durable to withstand the force of lightspeed traveling.

"Yesss... finally I have finished it. Phew, it's good that the prototype was more than enough on my first try."

Reed inhaled deeply and looked at me with a reassuring smile.

"Honey, you don't have to worry anymore. We are bringing our boy back home."

"Then what are we waiting for, idiot?!" I scolded him with a serious expression on my face but on the inside, I was smiling like crazy.

Finally, I will be able to find that little troublemaker and spank him good for making trouble for his mother.

"Sue, you seem pretty edgy today. Are you maybe on y-" Reed chuckled nervously while ruffling his messy hair.

"Don't." The nerve of him.

I looked at him with a deadly expression.

Some things shouldn't be mentioned directly to a lady.

"Open the portal!" Reed commanded and "The Bridge starred to spin at extreme speeds and a wormhole started to form before it stabilized into a passage.

I didn't waste even a second before I started moving toward the portal connected to another alternate plane of existence.

Reed followed behind obediently.

Well, he could be pretty submissive sometimes.

It wasn't my first dimensional-traveling but this time... I had a feeling, an inkling that something was going to happen when we land in the new reality.

A change.

Maybe a new beginning, as if fate was leading me on.

With Franklin's situation unknown on the other side, I just prayed that he would be safe.

And whoever wanted to harm him would have to kiss my fists first!
