Alright, time to see if I can juggle two fanfics at the same time. Hi Guys! I said I was making a Marvel Variation of Goliath and here it is! Long time fans already know I currently am writing a DC Story about the same character. For those who are new… Welcome to The Great Goliath! Meet Grim Deathly… Or as he will soon be known: The Goliath. Let's just dive down into the Origin story.
We come to New York, underground in an abandoned subway filled with criminals of the worst sort. Drug dealers, mobsters, pickpockets, murderers, the whole shebang. They were all gathered around a boxing ring with two men standing and staring each other down inside.
One was huge and bulky with tattoos and scars covering him. He was bald and wore jeans, a black shirt, boots, and gloves. He was glaring down at the slightly smaller man in front of him.
The other person had no shirt or shoes and was only wearing some old orange athletic pants. He had muscles bulging from his body as he crossed his arms and smiled up at the man above him. He had curly short hair and a chinstrap beard grown. He appeared to be just around sixteen years old but could still hold his own judging by the champion belt around his waist. He had blue eyes that stared into the dark eyes of the larger man as a bell rang and the fight began.
"Take him out Snake!" Yelled someone from the crowd and the larger man ran forwards and tried to grab the boy in a bear hug.
"That it? Grab him and win?" Asked the kid as the man approached.
The kid ducked and sighed and swept the legs out from under the large man. He grabbed the shirt of the man as he was falling and rolled backwards, tossing the man across the ring.
"Ow!" Yelled the man as he got back up and ran at the kid once more.
"Oh no! He's running at me! What will I do?" Asked the boy in mock surprise. He sidestepped the man and tripped him with an outstretched foot as people laughed.
"Stop moving!" Yelled the man and he threw a punch towards the boy who weaved around the fist and arm and slammed a fist into the large man's face, causing a spurt of blood and the large man crumpled to his knees.
"Night Night." Said the boy as he kneed him across the face and the man slumped over.
"Ladies and gentlemen! To nobody's surprise he has done it again! Goliath has defeated another for his final match! We are all sorry to see him go!" Said a voice through speakers.
There was around of booing around and the boy skilled and jumped out of the ring and people parted around him.
"That's right Asshats! I'm out! Watch somebody else beat the snot out of people." Said the boy as he left the large area and went into a small room where he found a bald man in a suit and sunglasses waiting for him.
"Grim! My boy! Quick, brutal, and jokes around! We're gonna miss you around here." Said the man.
"Yeah, just get me my money and I'll be out of your lack of hair Freddy." Said Grim and Freddy grinned.
"See… that's the problem. I made a deal with this big group, they want you, and they're gonna get you." Said Freddy as he clasped his arms behind his back.
"What?" Began Grim when a man in a yellow hazmat like suit walked in and shot him with a blast of electric energy.
Grim crumpled to the ground, and everything began to fade to black, but not before he heard one thing.
"MODOK will be happy with this Freddy." Said a voice… and then all was dark.
Later, he jolted awake and found himself in a pod of some sort with the giant leering face of a creature he had heard about… the creature that was the floating head of MODOK, enemy of Iron Man.
"Good, you are awake. Now we can begin." Said the head and Grim found himself clamped into position in the pod with a black crystal laid on top of him.
"What is this!?" Yelled Grim.
"You are about to become AIM's greatest creation yet. I almost envy you." Said the Mechanized voice of MODOK as a loud crash was heard and a wall was ripped apart far in front of Grim.
A series of colors entered the room and he saw the unmistakable forms of the Avengers, blowing up AIM men and women and their equipment. MODOK rose to engage them but not before he activated the machine that Grim was locked inside of.
A vibration began to shake his body as the battle raged outside and it grew more and more intense by the second. Every second the intensity increased tenfold, soon he could feel his bones begin to fracture and shatter. He would have screamed but the air was sucked out of his lungs. The crystal on top of him was vibrating too and it exploded into dust that coated him and stuck to him like a film. His skin was starting to tear when outside Thor saw the horror that was unfolding inside of the pod.
He spun his hammer and lighting blasted and pierced the pod and Grim, but that was when it happened. Everything began to slow down and Grim's pain ended in one moment as the lighting corkscrewed around him and connected with the Crystal that covered him. It melted and the Crystal began to bond with his skin while the lighting entered his body.
Then he began to grow. He felt what was left of his body stretch and reform, bones linked back together, skin hardened, and he felt a prickly sensation all over his body. Everything felt almost the same as before… but then he caught sight of his reflection in the glass of the pod.
A visage of a monster was all he saw. A face made of black crystal with two glowing red rectangles staring back into his very soul. He yelled in fear but it wasn't his voice he heard, it was a deep gravelly roar of a beast.
MODOK reared up in front of Grim with a gleeful expression of success.
"Yes! It worked!" He said and Grim knew one thing… and one thing only. MODOK was the reason this happened… and now he was pissed… No, not pissed. He was enraged. And the rage kept building until finally…
Grim ripped his arms free from their binds and smashed open the pod and slammed a fist into MODOK's giant face and sending him pinballing away.
"WHAT DID YOU DO!?" Roared the gravelly voice.
All action stopped and Avengers and AIM both turned to look at the new combatant.
Standing at nine feet tall with skin completely made of black plated crystal was a monster. Small spikes dotted his body on the shoulders, back, legs, head, and along his chin like a chinstrap beard. He had rectangular glowing red eyes that seethed with rage. His open mouth revealed small drill like teeth arranged in rows like a shark. He wore only stretched out orang athletic pants.
MODOK halted his body and glared down at the giant.
"You have been given the physical properties of Galagmite, the strongest material known in the cosmos! Nothing can pierce your skin!" Said MODOK gleefully as the giant roared and clutched his head.
"Turn. Me. Back." He growled.
"Impossible! You were created with an alien bonding agent that hadn't been fully studied. Nobody in the known universe could reverse it." Said MODOK.
Everyone stood in silence as shadows covered the giant's eyes and he clenched his fists. He looked up suddenly and grit his teeth together.
"You abducted me." He said as an AIM agent ran towards him and he backhanded him away through a wall.
"You mutated my body." He began stomping towards MODOK and lines of AIM agents stood in his way. He ripped a machine out of the ground and knocked away the men and continued on his way.
"And now you're saying that there is no way to turn me back!?" He roared as he jumped and grabbed MODOK and they both slammed into the ground.
Lasers fired and struck Grim in the back, he ignored the heat on his back and threw MODOK into a wall where he jammed and was left stuck. He turned towards the men that were blasting him and he snarled at them.
He ran forwards and grabbed one of the men and knocked other back. He threw the man in his hand at others and by now the Avengers started to fight again.
Grim cleared waves of men while the Avengers did the same. Eventually the agents retreated and started to escape. Grim sat down on a mangled piece of metal and sighed as he stared at his hands.
Eventually the Avengers made their way to him and he looked up at them and sighed.
"I don't suppose this is all a bad dream?" He asked.
"Probably not." Said Iron Man as he started scanning him.
"Any hope of me getting back to normal?" Asked Grim.
"Not from my scans… I… We can take you back to my lab and I can-" Started Toby but Grim raised his hand.
"I'm fine. No more experiments… I just wanna get back home." He said as he walked to a nearby hole in the wall.
"Where are we?" Asked Grim.
"Jersey." Said Captain America.
"Of course we are!" Yelled Grim as he sighed.
"What's your name?" Asked Hawkeye.
"Well, guess I need a new name to fit the face… Let's go with Goliath." Said Grim and he turned and jumped out of the hole in the wall and that was the last anybody saw of Goliath… Until three weeks later when he was revealed to the world.
END
