Chapter 11- Updates on Demon Blood
Avengers compound
One week ago
Barry eyes were starting to slowly open as the sun's rays are hitting Barry's face, shining a blinding light. As he slowly starts to wake up, he could immediately feel someone's leg being on top of his with a comforting feeling pressed on his chest. But that wasn't all. He could also feel his arm being wrapped around someone and someone's arm on his chest.
That's when the memories of last night comes rushing into Barry's head in a flash. It was the beautiful brunette: Wanda Maximoff. Wanda was practically radiating warmth. It was like he was being showered in Heat Wave's flamethrower-except it wasn't trying to kill him like multiple times.
He's got to say this-Barry never knew Wanda was this good at cuddling. She made him feel like he was sleeping on clouds with extra layers of comfort just by her legs on top of his.
He could practically feel Wanda's entire body pressed against him, including her breasts. Barry can feel his cheeks heat up by all this snuggling and just doesn't want to make a single move or this moment will end, so he decides to just try and go back to sleep, ignoring the time he needs to get up to go to Oscorp.
In a about two hours later, the sun was fully up and could hear birds chirping from outside. Inside, the sounds of heavy foot steps can be heard rushing down to the lounge area where Wanda is still cuddled up with the Scarlet Speedster: Barry Allen.
Sam has finally entered in the lounge, rubbing his eye. As his vision becomes a little bit more clearer, he walks to the counter, passing by the snuggle fest that was happening right there on the couch. But Sam noticed from the corner of his peripherals and slowly walks backwards before coming to a stop.
His eyes widen with a mouth wide open with a silent chuckle as he examines the scene before him. What was weird was the fact that Barry's snoring wasn't as heavy as they were most nights, usually they would sound like a lion roaring but today he is just snoring lightly, barely could hear anything.
Knowing this moment might not happen again, Sam pulls out his phone, goes to the camera and aims it at Barry and Wanda. Getting a clear shot in 4K, Sam takes the picture and whispers, "'Don't like Wanda' my ass"
A couple of weeks ago, Sam confronted Barry about Wanda and if they are ever gonna go out but Barry made it clear that he didn't like her but obviously that as lie. Them sleeping together proves it. Luckily they both had their clothes on so Sam didn't feel awkward about it.
Unknowingly to Barry, but Sam and Tony are the ones who mostly wants Barry and Wanda to get together. Ever since what happened the first month Barry lived here, Wanda's been way more open then before is it was all because of a certain guy who got stuck by lightning.
And from that day, Tony and Sam knew that Barry was the right one for her and have been hoping for them to at least share a kiss.
Moments later, Steve and Natasha come walking in talking about Oscorp, Demons blood, and a comment from Natasha about Steve's day as a soldier.
When Natasha sees Sam leaning down by the couch, She says out loud, "Morning Sam!" But what Natasha got in response was a loud shush noise, causing Wanda to moan and move around a bit before stopping, and snuggles up to Barry even more, this time she had an arm around Barry's muscles with her head buried in his chest.
After she stops moving and goes back to sleep, Sam sighs out of relief and glances back at Steve and Natasha who had a confused expression on their faces.
Sam raises his hands and motions them to come to where he was. Confused, Natasha looks at Steve before walking to Sam. She later has the same expression Sam had when he first came down.
"I told you Warry was gonna happen." Natasha smugly whispered.
Sam shakes his head with a grin. "Did you seriously just make a ship name for them?" Sam says with disbelief. Natasha shrugs.
"Do we let them sleep?" Sam asks.
Natasha sighs, looking at Wanda who was all snuggling up to Barry who had an arm around her waist. "As much as I want this to keep going, Barry has a job to do. And if we're ever gonna find out about the file that man took from Oscorp we need Allen 100% focused." She says with a low voice.
Sam sadly nods. "Hopefully more moments like this happens along the way." Sam mutters.
"God your such a fan girl." Natasha comments and Sam looks at her weirdly.
"Says the one who just made a ship name." Sam fires back.
Present time
It's been about a two weeks of Barry being at Oscorp and he's already learned so much, more than what he already knew. Norman Osborn treats Barry with the utmost respect along side Felicia Hardy who had grown quite fond of Mr. Allen now from when he first arrived.
And on top of that, Scientist: Jim Neutron has grown quite close with Barry-even gone out to lunch with him. Usually they would go to Leo's right across the street for lunch break where Barry would order a just a regular cheese pizza.
That bothered Jim since in New York, The pizzas are always better with toppings and here comes this man who puts nothing on it. That's what he liked to call; a monstrosity.
After learning about New York's ways of Pizza, Barry is now always putting some Oregano, red peppers, garlic, black peppers, and some Parmesan cheese on his pizza.
Jim would get himself any different type of pizza that wasn't plane cheese. Sometimes they would walk to Time Square and go to either McDonald's, Subway, hell there even was a Panda Express.
Downside was since Barry is from another Earth and doesn't have those places in Central City, he didn't know what to order so it was quite difficult for him to get this whole New Yorkian vibe down. But after a week with Jim and going out, he got this whole being in New York thing down pat.
Even when he would have free time, Barry would ask Felicia out for lunch to try get her out of that boring desk. Barry still hasn't told anyone about Felicia since it might cause a bit of an issue with the Avengers cause recently they told Barry to not get in too deep or it might just might escalate things. And Steve couldn't be more right.
Barry is in his lab working on a few chemicals accompanied by Jim who is on his computer, typing as Barry is mixing chemicals and giving him things to write down.
Through out the whole week, Barry has managed to find some interesting things about FS-53 or Demons Blood. And was ready to tell the avengers about it all but first he needs to finish his work.
After Barry finished on his work in the lab, it was time for him to tell the Avengers on what he found out.
Avengers compound
Night
"Okay," Steve said, his hands crossed while standing in front of The Avengers, including Tony and Clint in the conference room where everyone is sitting-besides Barry, who has his hands on the chairs top, "You've been in Oscorp for about two weeks now,"
"Yeah I still don't understand why we had to wait a two weeks with no way to contact Allen for this conversation to happen." Tony comments, interrupting Steve.
"Obviously so the kid doesn't look too suspicious, are you supposed to be the genius around these parts, Stark." Clint smirked, playing around with a small ball.
"Shut the fuck up Barton!" Tony grumbled.
"Language, Tony." Steve complaints.
"Oh your still doing this. Alright well how about this-" Tony then goes off saying swear words that made it sound smart and personal at the same time all the Avengers and Barry are taken back while some try not to laugh.
"Jesus man! You kiss your mother with that mouth." Sam says with a grin on his face.
"What the hell is a *?" Barry asks, repeating what Tony had just said.
"Yeah that was very specific and weird even for me," Wanda adds and Barry chuckles at her.
"Those words sounded so environmentally challenging not to mention with the precise definition in your tone, it made it sound even more vulgar." Vision comments earning another light chuckle from Barry.
"Yeah man, it was like you literally didn't give two flying craps on what you said. If you said that to me tho, you would be on the floor crying for your girl." Clint smugly says. Tony rolls his eyes and leans back in his chair.
Then, everyone turns their attention back to Steve. "As I was saying," Steve continued as if he was never interrupted. He looks at Barry from across the room. "You've been at Oscorp for a week. What have you learned from your time there?" He asks. Everyone then turns their attention to the speedster from another earth.
Barry breathed, putting his Oscorp lab coat on the chair. "Uh quite a lot. Yeah there are so many things to talk about, I even learned about a secret that no one was supposed to know-not even Mr. Osborn." Barry began.
Tony sighs exasperated. "Ugh Norman. He's always trying to One up me. If I didn't know any better I'd say he's jealous of me." Tony arrogantly says.
"Oh yeah who wouldn't be jealous of the famous Tony Stark." Rhodey sarcastically says. Clint laughs and throws the ball at Tony, hitting him on the head.
"Barton I swear to god I'm going to sell your farm house to a crack head if you do that again." Tony glares at Clint.
"Do what?" Clint asked innocently. Steve clears his throat and the two then turn their gaze back at Barry, who was hiding a laugh.
"Allen." Natasha warned and Barry looks up, professionally hiding his laugh.
"Right uh okay, let's see: When I first walked in the building I was greeted by this woman-she was about I don't know maybe in her 20's and had this menacing, devious raven haired color. She did not like me at all! It was the first day and I already had an enemy." Barry begins.
"Well yeah not everyone is gonna like the famous Speedster from another Earth: Bartholomew Henry Allen." Rhodey adds and Barry shoots a menacing look telling him to shut up since he hates it when someone says his full name.
"Anyway, Felicia told me where to go and that's how I ended up in Norman's office where he was talking to his son: Harry Osborn on the phone. After, we started talking about my life-my fake life. Sebastian Smythe. Told him I grew up in Minneapolis, dad left, graduated in ESU, then...he tested me." Barry explains and Clint flinches.
"Wait huh? He tested you? What like with a lie detector, or a urine sample?" Clint asks.
"No he tested my brain. Kept asking me scientific questions and luckily I knew the answer or that would have gone bad." Barry says.
"What's biomass?" Tony calls out from across the room.
Barry smirks. "The mass of an living organism." He says simply.
"Why is the sky blue?" He asks.
Barry straightened up with narrow eyes. "It depends on the wave lengths. Since the color blue is the shortest wave length, it collides with everything in its path-including the sky." Barry explains and in the process earned intrigued looks from the Avengers-beside Vision who already knew that answer.
"Okay, Flash. What sorts of signals does the brain use to communicate sensations, thoughts and actions?" Tony challenges and everyone-Including Steve, all glance at Barry who is looking at Tony with narrow eyes.
"Electronical and chemical signals." Barry says with his arms now folded.
Tony starts to grin. "What is it that makes diseases caused by viruses and bacteria hard to treat?" He questioned.
"Mutations." Barry simply says.
"Which of Newton's Laws state that 'for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction?'" Tony asks.
"The third law of motion." Barry says and everyone just looks so intrigued that they want to keep them to keep going.
Tony starts to smile a bit. "How many elements are in the periodic table?" He asks.
"There are 118 elements-that includes lightzinium." Barry says and Tony smirks.
"What name is given for the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom?" Tony asks.
Barry takes a second, then says, "Atomic number."
Tony grins and says in a tone, "I knew your were smart kid but I didn't think you were this smart."
"We'll look at that, Stark. You finally met your match. Only thing is that Allen doesn't have an enormous ego like you do." Clint inquired, Tony gets frustrated, grabs the ball and throws it at Clint. Luckily, Clint caught it and smirks.
"Guys can we please get back on topic." Steve orders, getting rather annoyed of the billionaire and archer. "Barry go on. What did you find out about Demon Blood?" He asks, returning his gaze back at him.
"Right. After Norman hired me, we were walking past some hallways and windows where some labs are located. In one of the labs, I saw this scientist with a machine and a vial with a red liquid inside."
Natasha cuts in and says, "It's got to be the serum."
Barry nods. "The next day, I was in my lab with my partner: Jim Nuetron. He's a fellow scientist from New Orleans but anyway, when it was night, I was struggling about this problem I was having that's when Norman came in and volunteered to help. It was the perfect time to ask about Demons Blood." Barry explains and Steve nods.
"And what did you find out?" Steve asks.
"It's a bio serum that is using CRISPR to mutate DNA so that It can defeat any chronic and virus damage and turns out the CRISPR isn't the only thing it's using. They're using a bio agent called: Sevex. Thankfully from a fellow scientist, Sevex is a type of atom that is changing the way the molecules that make a DNA, mutating the way blood cells enter the body." Barry noted and Steve nods.
"So Sevex is what is able to change the way the Demon blood functions?" Steve said, after a moment.
Barry nods. "But that's not all. I was able to sneak into Norman's office to try and find more. With my speed I was able to vibrate my molecules faster than the naked eye can follow, making me invisible. So, I went on Normans computer and found something that Mr. Osborn himself didn't know. Apparently, his wife has Oshtoran syndrome but...so does his son." Barry explains.
"Yeah it make sense, Mother genes tend to be the offsprings main one that they get when they're born." Tony confirms.
"No guys...his other son." Barry slowly says, making it clearer on what he's trying to say. That's when the avengers all knew what he meant and nod, some just lightly scoffs.
"Norman Osborn had another kid who knew?" Rhodey softly says.
"Yeah, he didn't even know." Barry adds and Natasha speaks up.
"Well this just gives us a whole new perspective on everything." Natasha says.
The team kinda sits there for a moment. Then, Steve nods, mainly to himself, and says, "Alright team this is what we're going to do: Stark. I want you and Vision to get started on how to make a cure for the Demons Blood-you guys are the smartest ones here. You guys have a brain. Use it. Sam, Rhodey and Wanda I want you to follow Norman Osborn-anything you guys can find out about his secret kid I want to know about it. Barry, I need you at Oscorp. Even though you got us enough, we still need more information about Demon Blood and Osborn. Natasha, Clint and I are gonna stay here for back up and we'll be on standby alert, ready to go at a moment's notice at the first sign off.
Steve looks around at the team and says, "Alright. Everyone understand their jobs?" Everyone nods. He nods in return, then simply says, "Let's get to work."
And that's the end of this one. I hope me explaining the science wasn't bad. I don't really know about any of half things I said so I kinda made it up lmaooo! But hopefully it turned out good.
Alright next chapter is where it really starts to get going. And I kinda like how I did this one ngl but anyway see you next time!
