* Roooar! *
"This is incredible ... I have seen many strange things in my life, but this one by far is the strangest of them." Leona commented while looking at the computer screen that was showing a video of a camera image of a green giant destroying everything
Natasha didn’t comment, she just waited patiently for the video to end.
While Leona was watching the video curiously. Adrian who was sleeping, woke up with his stomach roaring with hunger.
Adrian POV.
I'm hungry! That's my first thought when I wake up, I look around my room lazily and slowly walked towards the kitchen, in the middle of the hall I see the clock ticking 13:45 PM.
This is late! I am grateful for sleeping so much, but at least I wish there was food in my room! I envy those beings who don't need to eat or have physical needs! They just sleep and live as long as they want! How happy would such a life be?
When I was about to go down the stairs, I hear a voice screaming.
Hmm, what is that? does that sound like the sounds that bears make when they are very close to them, if I'm not mistaken it was a roar? But why does it seem strange?
Curious, I take the steps down slowly and overhear a conversation from Aunt Nat and my mother.
"What is the point of showing me this?" My mother asks in a questioning voice.
“The target name is Robert Bruce Banner, he is a highly respected genius for his work on biochemistry, nuclear physics, and gamma radiation. He was hired by General Thaddeus Ross to recreate the Super Soldier Serum that created Captain America. As you can see from the images, the experiment did not end up working, an accident occurred that turned it into that. He became a creature that we kindly call ourselves the Hulk and ran away somewhere in South America.” Aunt Nat responds in an extremely serious voice. Where did the relaxed, playful woman go? Is that your true personality?
Super Soldier Serum? It's that thing that was in Steve Rogers' biography, right? It is a serum that they used to elevate Steve Rogers to the top of human capacity.
* Roarrr! *
Where is that noise coming from? Damn it! This curiosity is killing me!
"And? This creature is not my problem, why are you showing me this? I already retired from SHIELD, I don't work with you anymore.” My mother responds in a serious voice.
SHIELD? What is it? It's food? Wait ... My mom worked with Aunt Nat?! And I thought she never worked in her life, after all, she is always resting or acting lazily, I think I took my laziness from her ...
Nat: “I didn't bring this recording to you for that purpose ...”
Leona: “What is the point of showing me that then?”
Nat: “It's a warning ...”
Leona: “Warning?”
Nat: “Yes, it is a warning that the world is changing. In fact, the world is starting to wake up, since the time Steve Rogers became Captain America, the seed of 'Super Beings with abilities beyond human capacity' has been planted, and that seed is about to bear fruit.”
Leona: “I still don't understand the purpose of showing this video, I understand very well that beings of strange abilities are starting to appear, but Adrian and I have nothing to do with it.”
My mom and Aunt Nat argue in a serious voice. I feel like I shouldn't be listening to this conversation ... They seem to be talking about something important, I better get out of here.
When I'm about to walk back to my room I hear that roar again! Damn it! I'm curious what kind of animal does that sound?!
No longer holding on to my curiosity, I put my head a little off the stairs to try to see what they are seeing, but when I put my head out a little, I see Aunt Nat looking at me with a 'gentle' smile on face.
I was discovered, huh? If she knows that I'm here, she won't mind if I watch the 'video' they talk about so much, right?
Regardless of the consequences, I run towards the kitchen and climb on top of the chair that was next to my mother, I take this strange machine that is showing images and start watching with curiosity. What is this green animal? He looks like a human, but that strength is not something that a human would be able to do.
"Adrian, wait-" My mom tries to say something to me, but she is interrupted by Aunt Nat.
Nat: “Leona, let him see the video, I want to know his opinion.”
Leona: “Aren't you taking a child's opinion very seriously?”
Nat: “You know very well that he is not a normal child.”
Leona: “Tsk, just because we found him in that place, does not mean that he is not normal.”
I totally ignore what they are talking about, even if they are talking about me, I don't care, after all, the images I am seeing are quite interesting. How can a being lift a car and play like a toy?! Is that even possible?
* Roooar! *
So it was he who was making that noise ... Hmm?
"This creature is strange." I mumble to myself in a low voice.
"What do you mean, 'this strange creature'?"
“HAAA! What a fright! When did you get to my side?!” I tell Aunt Nat that she suddenly appeared beside me. Seriously, when did she get to my side? Wasn't she far away?
"Answer my question." She responded by looking at me seriously while sitting on the chair next to me. She totally ignored my question, huh?
"Although this creature is violent and aggressive, does it appear to be a child in a giant body to me?" I answer honestly a little confused too.
Aunt Nat looks confused at me, she looks at the strange machine that is showing the image of the green giant destroying everything while roaring and then looks at me, she repeats this movement three times, apparently, giving up something she asks me with a sigh . "You can explain better?"
"Hmm ... Do you remember when we trained and sometimes, we met small animals on the way to the race?" I said after thinking about my words for a while. Sometimes Aunt Nat and I trained, we came across puppies of stray animals, usually, these puppies were extremely aggressive towards people they don't know.
"Yes, I recall." She replied when a look of accomplishment flashed in her eyes.
“I think this creature is the same as these animals, he is just a puppy that has an absurd strength and that is confused by the whole situation he is going through, after all, when he was born, he was received with aggression, of course, that he will be angry ... He is just a big, strong baby animal that has just been born.”
Apparently, Aunt Nat was shocked by what she just heard, not only she, my mother as well, the proof of that is the face of them with their mouths open as if they had heard something absurd.
"It's an absurd thought, but ... That thought makes sense." Aunt Nat said with a sigh.
