[2 Weeks later]
Norman gathered twenty scientists into his office. Most of them worked in OsCorp's bioengineering division.
"You may wonder why I called you here today," He addressed the group sitting in front of him. Everyone remained silent, listening carefully to him. "Well, I have some good news and some bad. Good news is that I forgive you all for the loss of 0X-Serum. Bad news is that you are going to help me fix it," He explained calmly. Everyone exchanged glances wondering what he meant by that.
Osborn took out a folder containing documents and handed each scientist one copy of the document.
"These documents say that twenty of you are now officially going to become the test subjects for Project SSS," He announced causing gasps of shock among the scientists.
"W-what do you mean test subjects, sir?" One scientist raised his hand nervously, asking the question everyone was thinking about right now.
"Since you destroyed something more worth than all of your and this entire company combined, I need replacements," Norman answered coldly without giving a damn about the consequences of his decision.
"B-but, sir. Your formula will kill us if it doesn't work," Another scientist protested, but Osborn just ignored him and continued explaining the details of Project SSS.
"So, die... You should have thought about it before losing the serum, right? So, it's only fair for you all to pay for your mistakes by becoming human test subjects for Project SSS," He declared leaving no room for negotiation.
Everyone sat there frozen in place unable to believe what was happening.
"Three days should be enough," Norman gave each scientist three days to prepare themselves mentally and physically for the procedure. And if they decide to act smart or try to run away, then he will hunt them down personally and force them to participate in Project SSS whether they like it or not. If that's not sufficient, he will drag their family members into this mess too making sure none of them escapes his wrath.
"Now get the fuck out of my office. I don't have time to waste on worthless trash like yourselves," He dismissed the scientists. Everyone immediately stood up and left him alone in his office.
Once they left, Osborn poured himself another glass of whiskey before heading downstairs to the lab where Project SSS will take place. It's located in an underground level below the main building. There are several rooms used specifically for conducting experiments on humans including the observation room where Norman can observe everything from above via CCTV cameras installed throughout the whole level.
As soon as he arrived, OsCorp scientists greeted him and escorted him into the observation room where Project SSS will commence in three days.
"How's the preparation going?" Norman asked one scientist standing next to him watching everything through the CCTV screens. "Almost ready, sir. We just need to finish installing equipment and calibrate them accordingly," The scientist answered nervously while avoiding eye contact with him afraid that he might notice his fear. "We are working as fast as we can."
Osborn noticed this behavior but decided not to comment on it knowing how terrified these scientists must be after hearing what happened to Subject 0x four years ago.
After he left, Pietro slammed his fist on the wall making another dent appear, trying desperately to break free. Wanda watched silently as he kept banging on those walls, cracking them ever so slowly while she stood there feeling powerless not knowing how to comfort her twin brother who lost hope long ago...
"You think we should accept his offer?" Wanda finally broke her silence causing Pietro to stop what he was doing and face her directly, staring straight into her eyes without blinking.
"Why are you saying that? You think we should go with him? You know very well it isn't Stark who was responsible for our parent's deaths, sister," His tone changed abruptly, anger creeping into his voice.
She didn't respond immediately afraid of getting angry back because she understands where he gets such feelings coming from.
"But that doesn't change the fact that it was the Stark weapons that caused our suffering," Her voice trembled slightly when she answered back without looking away from him. "We need to survive if we were to have a chance to take our revenge on Stark and Osborn. He is the one who captured us so it is only right that he suffers along with his creations!" She added sharply making her point crystal clear to him.
Her brother seems hesitant to follow up with what she suggested, unsure how far will they succeed once released from this prison where both of them are imprisoned like caged animals. But he realizes they really have no choice but to do what Osborn commands, so he reluctantly agrees to work under Osborn's command. "Alright, I'm in."
