[Livingroom]

Susan Storm and I are having a serious conversation. May excused herself and left us alone to talk.

"Let me get this straight, you want to provide me with facility, manpower, and everything needed to complete my project and you won't interrupt my research as long as it maintains human rights?" I asked looking at Susan Storm, who just decided to show up at my doorsteps after I rejected their letters and offers with another offer and in person no less.

"That is correct," Sue replied with a calm expression.

"What is the catch? What do you gain from that? Do you really expect me to believe that your organization just wants to make the world a better place out of the kindness of its heart? I'm just a newbie in the field, what if you guys use your power and influence to take over my work, and worse, you try to cut off funds and shut down my work? Just like how Dr. Connors got abandoned by everyone after OsCorp's fall," I questioned, raising my voice, "You guys think I'm dumb enough to walk into the same trap? I might not have been in this type of situation for long, but I have learned the lesson of how people treat others."

"Dr. Connors's experiments were unethical. He broke the law and violated the accords, we couldn't let such actions continue, but your projects are different and we have the legal backing to let you continue," she said, "The reason why I am making this offer is that we are short on hands, especially talented minds like yours, we would prefer if you join us instead of being an independent contractor, and we can provide you the environment to develop your ideas and the funding to complete them."

"Nah, I'm good. I got a place, equipment, and my own money for research, you aren't getting even a percentage of my profits or access to my products. Neuron Prosthetics and cybernetic implants are my research. I'm the first to put out a working theory, at least a part of it..." I noticed how she flinched as soon as she heard that the theory was incomplete. It would seem, they have already tried to put it to work, but couldn't complete it without the other half...

The reason they accepted that my half-released theory works is simply that it works theoretically speaking, but to make it work on humans, they will need the other half which is inside my brain. And which sane person will release 100% of their hard work, just for others to take advantage of it? Even if it's Reed Richards or Tony Stark, even they will have a hard time figuring it out.

Yeah, with their IQ and resources, heck, Tony has AIs, they can figure it out in time, but right now, I'm in the spotlight and that research belongs to me. If they try to develop it and release it as their own, they'll be in a shit ton of problems, which again, I'm 100% sure, they are capable enough to escape.

But public image?

What about their reputation? Their scientific reputation? That is hard to salvage. I can and will play that card, I've already predicted that and prepared plans based on multiple outcomes for different scenarios and ways.

But alas, even then, I'm far inferior compared to them and their connection, I know that very well. But, I can't just let them have my work. Nope. I've spent nights without sleep doing this work and having my mind frying it out at work and in battles for this theory, it is my life-changing creation and they can't have it.

It's as simple as that. I'll just eliminate anyone who gets in my way. I'm pretty sure they already know my identity as Spiderman and I doubt they would do anything like that, but still, there's that small probability. People get jealous of other's success and in this case, the world's two greatest minds are involved, so, it would be fun to see who gets out as a winner in the end.

I shifted my attention to Sue.

She looked back at me for a second with an uncertain gaze, "Reed created a multi-dimensional travel tunnel, but the machine malfunctioned and Reed and Johnny went into a comatose state. Last week, Johnny woke up, but he was unable to walk or talk. But from his body language, we concluded that they saw something on the other side and I believe it is a new threat from another dimension. Right now, we don't have the technology to make his body move so that he can write down the dangers he saw on the other side."

After a brief pause, she continued, "We have tried everything, but couldn't heal his injuries. Wakanda was our last hope, but the recent political tension with them made that impossible, and it was at that moment your theories caught our attention. Luckily, Reed uploaded his mind into an AI, and with its help, we were able to build up your work, but sadly, it didn't work... As you said, it's incomplete. This is why I came here seeking your help. But I guess, I messed it all up, huh?"

I switched on the stream again.

"Well, then, I apologize for my behavior. It would seem both of us started on the wrong foot..."

I tried to make up a story to clear the heat off her back. I explained the situation to them that Sue was just trying to help the people who were caught up in an accident, by hiding the facts about that dimensional threat and all that shit. It took hours of talking and exchanges to diffuse the situation. Sue continued to keep her calm and played along with my story and she apologized for doing the experiments behind my back. We also cleared the confusion about human experiments.

Yeah, they used some criminals rapists, and murderers to perform the experiment, so I had to put up a good show to diffuse the situation.

Man, let me tell you, it was fucking exhausting. But, in the end, it paid off.

Now, I've successfully got my golden ticket to get on the good side of the Fantastic Four. Plan 1 completed. Next, get a power source equal to that of an Arc Reactor from them for my fabricator. In return, I'll help those two.
