《Science-Bros: the really long and twisty tale of Tony and Bruce.》It hit the fan now...

Tony groaned, and tried to sit up. "Did someone try to kill me... again?" Thor went to one side of Tony, and helped him sit up.
"Aye. Dr. Banner saw whoever it was, right?" Thor looked at Bruce, waiting for an answer.
The scientist nodded a little and said "Yeah....we saw him, attacked him, and yet the bastard got away..."
Steve finally got into the room, panting slightly. "You know... it would have been nice... to wait for me... I can't really fly... and couldn't grab the back of Thor's cape."
Bruce turned back to where Steve was and sighed a little. "Tony's fine.....but I couldn't stop the enemy..."
"Did you see who it was? Any description we can use to find them?" Steve asked, standing like the leader he was born and trained to be.
Bruce shook his head and ran his hand through his hair, frustrated. "I didn't.....I was too angry..."
'It clocked itself in a shadow. But I did see something.' Hulk spoke up, getting mad (when was he not mad?) at the thing that hurt Tony.
"Hey Bruce, see if the Jolly Green Giant saw what went after me." Tony smirked, sitting up in his bed a bit.
Steve sighed. "Tony, the Hulk is fuelled by rage, I don't think we're going to get an accurate description from him."
Bruce glared at the super soldier and said sternly "Actually, Rogers, the Other Guy did see something."
"Ha! Told you!" Tony stuck his tongue out at Steve. He turned back to Bruce. "So what did Hulkie see?"
'First, tell Tony I don't like being called Hulkie. And second, he had on green, but wasn't the puny god. His face looked like Iron Man's.' Hulk told Bruce.

"Okay first thing, the Other Guy doesn't like it when you call him Hulkie, Tony.....sorry. Secondly, he had green on, but it wasn't Loki. And he was wearing a mask that looked like the Iron Man's mask." Bruce relayed to them.
"Green, and looks like Iron Man?" Fury walked in at that moment. "Are you talking about Dr. Doom?"
Bruce looked over at Fury and nodded. "I guess. Did Natasha gave you the second poison?"
"Same chemical make up as the first. And there was more than the first three I said." Fury looked over at Tony. "How Stark is still alive is beyond me."
"Why? What was the poison?" Tony still had that smirk on his face, not knowing how bad it truly was.
"You had almost everything that could of killed a normal human being." Bruce explained to his friend.
"There was snake venom, arsenic, belladonna, to name a few." Fury listed, keeping a prefect poker face, as is the norm.
Tony whistled low. "Man... I'm a lucky bastard."
Bruce sighed heavy and said "We need to keep you safe. And we'll need to talk to Reeds. He might know why Doom wants Tony dead."
"I sent the Fantastic Four a message. There was no answer." The news was a shock.
Tony frowned, and turned to Pepper. "Is JARVIS hooked up to this place?"
"Uh, yes. He is. We'll check on the Four again." Pepper told him. Bruce went over to sit down and sighed heavy, wanting nothing more than to hunt down Doom as soon as possible.
'You're getting mad.' Hulk said, feeing his pulse start to go up.
'Yeah...thank for the warning...' Bruce said to the Hulk. "Try Pyms and his wife. They might know something about this." Bruce suggested.

"Sir, there is no one at the Fantastic Four tower, nor an answer from Dr. Pym. I checked over at the Xavier mansion. No one was there either."
Steve frowned. "None of the x-men? Or any mutants?"
"None Captain Rogers." JARVIS said.
This was insane. How could they not get a hold of anyone? Now even the X-Men? Was this Doom's doing? Bruce bit his lips hard as he thinks to himself on who could help them on this. Maybe if he called Logan, or Strange could work.
"Call everyone you can JARVIS." Tony ordered. Suddenly, a bright flash of light could be seen down the hall, and a thud followed it. Steve whipped out his shield, while Thor started swinging Mjolnir.
Bruce quickly got up and went over to Tony's side of the bed, this time protecting him from whatever comes there way.
Loki stumbled into the doorway, a massive amount of blood running down his arm. He looked up at Thor, one eye swelled shut from a giant bruise, and spoke three words. "Asgard has fallen." The eye that wasn't injured rolled into the back of Loki's head, and he fell unconscious.

The Dawn of Blood
As the saying goes, "Ignorance is bliss." That is a good way to describe us. We are constantly seeking to improve, to evolve. Coming up with laws and theories to better understand the world around us. But what if it was all for naught. What if what we think is truth is nothing more than the actions of higher beings, far beyond our reach. Upon the discovery of an entire new reality, remaining ignorant is certain death. The only way to live is to grow, to evolve, to adapt. This is my first novel so any feedback and criticism is greatly appreciated. I hope that I'm able to grow as a writer through this and hope that people enjoy my work. Credit for the cover image goes to Richard Luong. Check him out at https://tentaclesandteeth.deviantart.com.

HEfTY
What if everyone in the world gave you $1? That’s what Hefty, a fat and cocky 14-year-old computer hacker tries to do. He bets on Bitcoin, and becomes a millionaire. Nevertheless, it’s short lived because Hefty is under the beck and call of his BPD mom. Hefty’s mom has leukemia. After seeing his mom’s hospital bill, he goes full tilt on the internet, selling crazy things on the Dark Web, like drones, drugs, and guns. And under his nose, someone’s been watching Hefty. Before he knows it, he’s abducted by ISIS and transported to Syria. ISIS’s chief tech officer was blown apart in an airstrike. All of ISIS’s money freshly minted into Cryptocurrencies. The passcodes in his mind blew up with the airstrike. The King of ISIS, forces Hefty to find the passcodes. At gunpoint, Hefty can’t say no, but tricks the King. The King makes a deal with him: If Hefty gets the money off the server, he gets to keep his life (and 10%). Hefty agrees and sees the amount from his 10%: $1.1 Billion in BTC. Drunk with money, Hefty joins the King and naively agrees to help ISIS, and starts buying everything he’s always wanted. He still misses home though, and after a google search brings up his mom, he throws bread crumbs through the internet. He creates digital trails throughout the back end of sites he hacks so people can find him. Even though his lifestyle is fun and exciting, ISIS starts to look less inspiring. Hefty sees the cruelty of ISIS’s cause and it disillusions him from thinking the Caliphate is noble. After some ISIS friends start dying, Hefty sees that war is dumb. Hefty tells his dying friend, on his last breaths, that he is going to take down ISIS. Mistake. With his last yells, his friend tattles on Hefty. Overnight, he goes from Multimillionaire to POW. The King gives him 2 options: blow up his favorite team on a game day of the Cleveland Browns, or his mother dies. Hefty chooses his mother. Within weeks, Hefty covertly writes software to defeat ISIS, leaving enough breadcrumbs to attract the Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army, General Tarvish. Acting quickly, General Tarvish works to find Hefty and uncover the Brown’s Stadium plot. Hefty finds a way to bomb the stadium, using an order that the president enacted putting all combat planes: no matter where over the US, had to be fully loaded and ready for war. Tarvish didn’t plan this into his counter measure. Hefty has set up ambushes against the Caliphate of ISIS… but the joke turns on him when he forgets to delete his code, and his terror attack on Brown’s Stadium goes off. Hefty’s location goes live, and an air campaign against the Caliphate starts. The US President angrily tries to drop a nuclear bomb on Hefty and the Caliphate. Tarvish kills the President before he can order the attack. The King flees by truck into the desert, but brings his cyber weapon: Hefty. Fed up, unafraid, and frankly pissed off, Hefty grows some balls and kills everyone in the car, giving the King his just reward, and careening down a mountain in the process.
