"So my friends, this is the future of performance enhancers" Norman Osborne said flashing his trademark smile to the awaiting potential buyers and journalists, he grabbed the red velvet cloth which was hanging loosely over the great apparatus and yanked it off revealing his greatest work much to the thunderous applause of the baying public. Jack stood towards the back of the stage loosening his tie delicately, he was felt sweat gushing from his pours as he watched the showman Norman unveil his great device, Jack took another stick of nicotine gum from his blazer pocket and placed into his mouth, he began to chew vigorously to calm his nerves. Jack Napier was co owner of Oscorp, he was the brains of the outfit while Norman was the public's poster boy, he despised Osborne but bit his lip so he could make the company he had forged from scratch a transnational empire to rival Stark Industries. Jack watched as Norman talked the public through Oscorps latest device, a performance enhancing drug that made people stronger, faster and more agile, in all but three of the animal tests it had been successful, in those three it caused increased aggression and near insanity. Jack had told Norman on countless occasions that the device wasn't ready, he wanted to carry out hundreds of more tests until they had a hundred percent success rate, but Norman was so concerned about business rather than the science side of things he pushed the announcement and demonstration of the device forward so Oscorp didn't lose out to Stark yet again.
The test subject was one of Oscorps factory floor workers, Bruce Wayne, he stepped out onto the stage shirtless and prepared for the experiment, Norman talked the crowd through some technical information about the machine, what the crowd didn't know is that he was reading it from cards on his podium, Jack sighed he knew Norman barely understood any of the science he was spewing. Bruce Wayne ran his hands through his short black hair, Norman gestured for him to step forward and he did, he walked into the huge glass chamber standing on the stage. Norman strolled confidently over to the control panel and typed in a series of commands, the clasps closed around Bruces ankles, wrists and waist, the factory worker looked calm but inside he was panicking wishing he had never signed up for this experiment, Norman hit a final command on the control panel and eriee green gases began to seep into the glass compartment and shroud Bruce from view. "Scientists, journalists, shareholders and people of the military, I give you the future of human performance" Norman said raising his hands to the sky and basking in the applause of the public, he looked over at Napier who was racked with the nerves and gave him a smile and thumbs up, but that didn't calm Jack in the slightest. Norman asked for any questions while Bruce inside was irradiated with untested performance enhancers, the flurry of mad questions was deafening, but the room was silenced by the sound of shattering glass. Bruce Wayne had punched straight through the glass door of the chamber, smashing his way through onto the stage looking focused, Norman waved the sign for the extractor fans to come on the clear the green mist that had been released for the chamber and began to applaud as Wayne walked towards the podium, Jack felt relief watch over him, no obvious side effects.
"Please give our brave test subject a hand folks" Norman said, he quickly turned to Bruce and scowled, he then whispered to him "That damage is coming out of you wages, you should have waited for us to open the machine you idiot" Bruce smiled with an insane look and stared at Norman, before Osborne could say anything he was sent flying across the room with a huge right hand, he impacted hard with the wall and fell to the ground, a woman in the audience screamed. Bruce picked up the podium and through it into the audience, a security guard ran onto the stage with a taser but he received a spinning kick delivered with such force he was killed instantly. Bruce leapt with immense force into the air landing in the audience; he lashed out with punches and kicks, attacking anyone and everyone.
Jack spat out his nicotine gum and took a walkie-talkie he had hidden from his blazer pocket.
"Code red" He said into it "I repeat code red, experiment has failed, mobilize all units, use of lethal force permitted" Moments afterwards streaming into the demonstration hall were armed guards from the lobby, each wearing body armor and an Oscorp cap, they mobilized in the hall funneling all civilians out of the room through the emergency exits, Napier had planned for this.
"Shoot him!" Napier shouted at the top of his lungs, he saw Bruce lay blows into the Oscorp guards "Shoot him!" Another guard was brutally murdered "SHOOT HIM!"
