Upgrading Stuff

When Henry heard that introduction, he was very surprised by the frankness of this man that he thought it was a prank. He looked around the whole room to see anyone with a camera before looking under the table expecting to see a hidden camera but no dice. He then looked at the man who introduced himself as Grant Warden like he was looking at an idiot.

"Are you been serious?" Henry asked him. Grant nodded.

"The last time we sent our men with hostile intentions it didn't end up too good on their part. That's why I am here, for a peaceful talk," Grant said with a gentle smile but Hnery was not buying that.

"How stupid do you think I am to think that you're alone, huh?"

"This is not a trick and we are really alone. I was sent to talk to you, no more no less," Grant reassured him. Henry calmed down a bit and went back to eating. Seeing this, Warden secretly sighed in relief. They didn't know how fast he can transform or how many forms he had but each for was more powerful than what they can currently handle.

"So, you have definitely heard of us but there's no mention of you. We have gone through every hidden files, hacked every site and removed every deleted documents in the whole country but there's nothing that mentions of you. Why is that?"

"When you can transform into a being that can make a toothbrush out of garbage that can put anything of modern science to appear to have been made in the stone era, everything becomes very assessable." That answer gave Grant and everyone else listening to it have chills, especially Dr. Zola. He was proud to be a scientist and an inventor but here was a person who was comparing everything great about science today to be comparable to the work of retards! "That must have triggered a lot of those eavesdroppers, huh?" Grant quickly stabalised himself when he heard that.

"It is quite surprising, that just makes us want you with us even more. Tell me, how much more can you do?"

"Sorry, that information is only reserved to my soon to be dead foes and I'm sure you are not one of them for now. But tell me something, Warden, are you currently infiltrating SHIELD?" Grant was taken back making Henry nod to himself. "A spy organization infiltrating another spy organization! Spies within spies!"

"Did you learn about that due to that transformation?" Grant asked, trying to bring the conversation back in control.

"How are you all handling the fact that Captain America is back? Are you readying a counter? A shocking secret that will make him waver in his hunt for you guys? Perhaps a thought dead child of his and Peggy or even his supposed to be dead friend?" Henry continued to trigger the eavesdroppers.

"Grant my boy, you have permission to execute target!" a man said in his comms. Grant did not even hesitate as he went for the knife on the table. When he grabbed it, he found that his arm could barely move because Henry got hold of it.

"Another benefit of having to transform into these creatures," Henry said before lifting him up and slamming him onto the net table with minimum effort. Grant coughed out blood as he squirmed in pain while Henry placed his foot on his chest. "Come in peace my ass!" The door to the hotel was kicked in and armed men got in. "Rath!" Henry immediately turned into the Apleplexian who growled at the men with resentment.

"Fire!" All of them opened fire at him without hesitation only, the bullets weren't even effective other than making Rath even madder.

"Let me tell you something, Hydra agents who I was promised were not here but it appears I was been lied to, when you shoot at Rath, it just makes Rath more MAD!" Rath roared before pouncing on them. His claws tore through two of them like they were sheets of paper before his mouth crushed another one's skull. The agents tried running but Rath was a predator, he enjoys the thrill of a hunt. He threw a whole table at the door, sealing all of them inside the McDonald's for his slaughter.

The agents did try to put up a fight but they were a threat just as much as a paper tiger. Rath tore through them, dying his mouth and claws red with their blood. In just five minutes, the whole place was bloody and the only one left was him and Grant was was standing at a corner, his pistol aimed at Rath's head. Rath growled at him as he came closer making Grant fire at him, trying to get his eyes but Rath shielded them with his left hand. His right hand made the single claw on his wrist to lengthen before impaling Grant right in his chest and lifted him above his eye level.

"You just killed an entire unit of SHIELD agents. The Avengers will be coming for you!" Grant said to him with a victorious grin which made him spit out more blood.

"Rath is aware. But, SHIELD is already aware that Hydra is trying to contact Rath so Rath not very worried about himself right now. You just chewed off an eye that's too big to get revenge on!" Rath said, making Grant frown.

"That doesn't make sense!" he said with his laat breath only to be tore apart by Rath with his other claw.

"I KNOW!" Rath roared as Grant's blood splashed everywhere. Rath shook his body, shaking all the blood off his fur then walked out of the McDonald's only to receive a sniper bullet right on his nogging. He growled in pain before looking at where the shot came from. His feline eyes restricted in anger and he was about to go over when Iron Man landed in front of him, aiming his repulsors at him.

"Angry kitties get taken to the pound!" he said making Rath growl angrily at him before he changed back to Henry.

"Just like you guys to arrive when the timing is wrong," he chuckled humorlessly as the Quinjet hovered above them. Captain America and Hulk jumped down making Henry frown even more, especially when he saw the look on Hulk's face.

"Come back with us, we have a lot of questions you need to answer," Captain America said at him.

"No can do, Cap. You see, the kind of information I have is so valuable that a certain group will kill in order to make sure I do not spill. I can take them by myself so why do I need you and SHIELD?"

"Son. the path you are heading to is not a path that will give you a clear conscience. We are offering a better alternative," Steve tried to convince him. Henry looked at all of them for a little bit before sighing in disappointment.

"You are all quite gullible now. When the times get tough and you all feel that you are losing, call me. For now, you are just lap dogs listening to SHIELD and its corrupt ideologies," Henry said before his whole body turned into a black goo with green lines on it. He then latched himself onto Tony's armor.

"Sir, the whole system is been taken over!" JARVIS exclaimed in shock as his control over the suit ceased then it opened up and Tony was thrown out then it closed itself up. Tony looked up indignantly, ready to start throwing insults when he saw the most amazing thing to ever happen in his whole life. The black goo covered all of the suit, making it turn black before the suit started changing. Its body became smooth that it looked nothing like a robot but like a body. Its size changed to be larger and even mean looking and the light from the ark reactor changed to black.

"What did you do to my suit!" Tony asked in fascination rather than anger.

"I improved it to fight Hulk at the same pedestal," Upgrade answered via the suit. Hulk roared back when he heard that then charged at him. They both threw a punch towards each other and when they met, they produced a shockwave that sent everyone flying away from them but the two were in a complete stand still. Even Hulk was shocked by the outcome. "Outcome calculated, adapting to target's strength!" The suit suddenly became larger as two energy canons appeared on the shoulders which he used to fire at Hulk, blasting him away.

"Natasha, take the Quinjet away from here. If he can transform Tony's suit into a Hulkbuster in seconds he can do a lot worse with the Quinjet!" Steve said to Natasha through the comms but Upgrade was way ahead of them. He flew towards the Quinjet making Natasha pullback, turn around and start fleeing.

Upgrade made aimed a canon at the thrusters and fired, only to have Natasha dodge them with skill. She then took a sharp climb, making Upgrade follow up as he fired more shots at her, making her do rolls in the air before she suddenly stopped, making Upgrade fly past her. She grinned vengefully as she took after him, firing all she shad on the ship at him. Upgrade calculated the course of the missiles before releasing flares at their path, detonating them in the air and making Natasha fly away from the fire, giving him a chance to sneak behind the jet and give it a crippling blow to a thruster.

"Shit, guys, I'm going down!" she cried out in worry for unlike everyone else but Barton, she didn't have anything that can help her survive this fall.

"Natasha, he has control of the Qui..." Steve's voice was cut off as the whole ship suddenly stopped falling. She tried to move the stick but it didn't even creak.

"Can you stop touching my special place?" Upgrade joked, using a shy anime girl voice that scared the crap out of Natasha that she jumped away, gun aimed at it. A single eye appeared on the windscreen, making her aim at it instead. "Now you're inside me! How naughty!" Natasha could not believe she was inside a living being and it was making fun of her. She was about to fire at the eye when the Jet suddenly dropped, making her hit the roof with an oof before it stopped and she was thrown to the floor, her breath taken away. Before she could breath in relief, she was thrown out of the ship by a sudden hole on the floor she was lying on and she could have screamed if she did not feel that she had just hit the ground.

"Bye, have a beautiful day!" Upgrade said to them and flew away, breaking the speed limit in an instant!
