“Incredible” Chapter 7 The Hulk Library (www.hulklibrary.com) determined by our profilers. Both Banner and The Hulk are perhaps more dangerous now than they’ve ever been before. Our psychologists and profilers have advised that we throw out the book on everything we thought we knew about both Bruce Banner and The Hulk. There is now simply no way of predicting what either of them will do in any given situation." An American voice full of the richness of the south spoke from the second row: "Why don’t we just abandon our plans to use The Hulk? You’ve done some mighty extraordinary work on your own, Professor." Again a ripple of respectful applause filled the hall. Professor Ban held up a metal hand that flashed in the light as she smiled. "Thank you, thank you. And yes, my work has been remarkable. As of now we have twelve subjects who have survived the various procedures and surgeries that I have developed to safely induce gamma-irradiated mutation. But we could do so much more if we had Bruce Banner and The Hulk. No matter how much I have done I could labor another twenty years and still never have half of the knowledge that Bruce Banner has when it comes to gamma radiation. Even after all this time, being a man on the run with no access to proper equipment or time to research, Bruce Banner is still regarded as the world’s leading expert on gamma radiation. As for The Hulk…what more needs to be said that if there’s such a thing as a living gamma bomb, then The Hulk is it. The Hulk has beaten just about every superhuman being on the planet he’s ever fought and survived the attacks of entire armies. He’s been hit with every type of weaponry this planet has from a peashooter to a nuclear warhead and he’s still alive. Ladies and gentlemen, in my professional opinion I don’t even think that it IS possible to kill The Hulk." Professor Ban leaned on the podium and her eyes sparkled as she continued: "And that’s why we need them. Somewhere in the DNA of Bruce Banner there’s the answer we need. And there’s somebody here who has set his own plan in motion for locating The Hulk and getting what we need and he’s going to speak to you now." Professor Ban stepped back from the podium and added her applause to that of the others as The Vice-President Of The United States stood up and walked grandly to the stage. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Slowly the world came back into focus as Woodgod’s great lungs deeply drew life-enriching oxygen into them. He looked up at his enemy, surprised to find himself still alive. The Hulk had removed his enormous hands from Woodgod and had raised his crushing weight up off from Woodgod’s chest. The Hulk’s head was cocked to one side as if he were listening intently to someone standing - Page 6 of 15 -
“Incredible” Chapter 7 The Hulk Library (www.hulklibrary.com) at his shoulder but Woodgod could neither see or smell anyone there. Still, The Hulk’s body language was unmistakably that of listening very carefully to something important that was being said to him. Woodgod scrambled clear and stood up, massaging his sore neck. The Hulk kept a wary eye on him while he was apparently still listening to whatever unseen voice was talking to him. Finally, The Hulk grunted and that seemed to end whatever inner conversation he was having. "You know me, don’t’cha?" Woodgod nodded. "It was shortly after my birth. My parents were killed by ignorant townspeople and that resulted in my existence being discovered by the military. You and another showed up in the town of Liberty, which had been quarantined. The other was garbed in a strange costume of red and blue." "Yeah, I know him. Annoying li'l bug calls himself Spider-Man. Okay, so far yer story checks." "Can I ask why you stopped choking me to death?" "Because a little voice told me I was making a mistake and you better thank whatever god a freak like you worships that it did ‘cause you were about four heartbeats away from goin’ up yonder. You shouldn’t have jumped Banner. He never did anything to you." "This Banner or you killed my friends!" The Hulk frowned in confusion and once again he cocked his head. This time, to the other side and once again it was as if he was listening to someone speaking urgently into his ear. "Y’mean them people back at the cabin? Banner didn’t kill ‘em. When he found ‘em they were already dead. Looked like the man plugged both the woman and li'l boy in the backs of their heads when they wasn’t lookin’." Woodgod’s nostrils flared. His nose was packed with olfactory membranes and just by smelling the changes in a person’s body chemistry he could tell if someone were hostile, afraid or lying. Now admittedly, The Hulk’s body chemistry was radically different from anything Woodgod had ever smelled in his life but still, there was no significant change as he spoke and Woodgod decided to trust his instincts. He relaxed and said; "I believe you speak the truth." - Page 7 of 15 -
