Cosplaying Icarus as a threat

A few days later

Steve and Natasha kicked a guy off the roof but he was caught by a dude with metal wings.

They started questioning the guy, who was Jasper Sitwell, a SHIELD- Oh, no, it should be HYDRA agent…

Sitwell said quickly "Zola's algorithm is a program! For choosing… Insight's targets…"

Steve asked directly "What targets?" Sitwell replied "You! A TV anchor in Cairo, the Under Secretary of Defense, a highschool Valedictorian in Iowa City, Bruce Banner, Stephen Strange, Viktor Gardens, anyone who's a threat to HYDRA. Now, or in the future."

Natasha's eyes widened and she kicked Sitwell in the stomach, shouting "Viktor Gardens? And his family!?" Sitwell sucked in air frantically, squeezing out "Collateral damage…"

Natasha took out her phone and turned away as Steve continued interrogating.

Unfortunately for Natasha, the call never went through, making her extremely anxious.

Currently, in the Gardens backyard.

Viktor was grabbing a man by the throat as the rest of the attack squad was floating in the air with blue veins all over their bodies, bones creaking and cracking under the pressure of gravity.

The man in Viktor's hands stared at him and shouted "You're a monster! You're not a normal person at all!" Viktor sneered and said "Who told you I was? Did your boss tell you why he sent you to kill me?"

The guy grit his teeth and stayed silent.

Viktor suddenly grinned widely and said "I like this game. How many people will survive when it's over?" he turned the guy's head and the agent he saw was slowly crushed to death, emitting horrible screams until he finally turned into a meatball covered in blood.

Viktor chuckled and licked his lips saying "Isn't that fun? Don't worry, I can make different shapes too, look at that one!"

Another agent was slowly crushed amidst horrified screams, he turned into a meat cube with an eye on the only side the man could see.

The man in Viktor's hands shouted in fear and terror "Crazy! You're crazy! You're a demon!" Viktor shook him and said "Wake up, you disgusting ant. Are you from Kingpin or what!?"

The man shouted crazily "Insane! You're insane!" apparently seeing his comrades crushed into various shapes collapsed his mind.

Viktor pinched the bridge of his nose in irritation and sighed "Pal, you're making this very hard for me, okay? I just want to know who sent you, I'll let you leave after, okay?" The man was completely hysterical and shouted all sorts of crazy things.

Viktor shouted "Enough!" The man's pals were all crushed to floating meat paste and Viktor turned the man to him, snarling "Tell me who sent you and I'll kill you painlessly, if not I'll make you wish you were dead for life!"

The man trembled in fear, perhaps because Viktor subconsciously used Conqueror's Haki and jolted his brain, or the man was pretending before but now was finally scared, he said "SHIELD! SHIELD sent me!"

Viktor frowned and said "SHIELD? So Pierce and Fury are finally starting their game, eh? I thought it was strange. Well, Fury can handle HYDRA, I don't have to do anything…"

The man heard Viktor's words and his eyes widened, he shouted "Who are you!? How did you know?! Nick Fury is dead!" Viktor looked at him and sneered "What do you know? Nick Fury is playing dead to draw the snake out of its hole. You retarded HYDRA agents are a prime example, just because Fury is dead, you're walking around the streets like peacocks, how moronic. Your project Insight, Alexander Pierce, and the rest are all going to be destroyed."

Viktor shook him and chuckled teasingly "Did you really think that you could succeed with your plan? Wipe out millions of humans at a time… hahaha! Let me tell you a secret, on this planet there's a Guardian of Earth. She's tens of thousands of times stronger than me! All your idiotic plans were doomed even before Zola thought of them."

The man shouted in craziness, "You're lying! It's impossible!" Viktor rolled his eyes and said "Why would I lie to a deadman? Who are you going to tell? What an idiot… By the way, have you ever been to Egypt?"

As soon as he finished speaking the man shouted in terror as he was crushed into a Pyramid shape.

Viktor looked at the flesh shapes and sneered, snapping his fingers as they were teleported into various alleys across New York city…

A poor homeless person was drenched in blood by accident.

Poor homeless guy…

Emma walked out and said "Is it fine?" Viktor nodded and smiled like a ray of sunshine, saying "Yep! Where's my little demon?" Emma pouted and held Lilith, who raised her hands at Viktor, grabbing the air and giggling.

Viktor teleported in front of Emma and picked up Lilith, holding her up in the air as he laughed "You like your daddy? You do, don't you~ Who's a little demon, it's you~ Yes you are~"

He lifted her little shirt and blew on her tummy, hearing her little giggles.

Emma watched him play with Lilith and felt monstrous waves of happiness and sweetness in her heart. Viktor let go of Lilith and floated her around him, saying "Oh no~ My little demon is flying away~"

Emma's telekinesis was surrounding Lilith's body just in case as a slight anxiety appeared in her heart whenever Viktor did this.

Viktor grabbed Lilith again and sat down on a chair under an umbrella, bouncing Lilith on his knee and holding her little hands.

Emma sat next to him and said angrily "How many times do I have to tell you to stop doing that! What if she falls?!" Viktor chuckled and replied "Don't worry, if she falls, I'll fly into the sun and kill myself."

He didn't even blink and continued playing with Lilith.

Emma was startled and said worriedly "You're not serious, right?" Viktor blinked and suddenly smiled "Of course, not… Just kidding, hehe~" as for what he thought, nevermind…

Emma let out a breath and joined him in playing with Lilith.

Another couple of days passed.
