Phil “Miss Storm, I can’t imagine what you’ve gone through.  I can only imagine how tough the past few months have been.  And I know you want to make a difference.  The problem is that somebody out there is trying to do the same and not in a good way.  And we need to find out who those people are.  The shooter responsible for attempting to kill you and did wind up killing a war veteran, perhaps by accident also shot at May.  We believe that you have been targeted by someone wanting to harness your powers.  The only way to know for sure is to keep you under supervision until this mystery is solved.”

Sue “No.  I want gone from you people.  Ever since the accident…I have had to deal with one S.H.I.E.L.D. agent after another.  I’m tired of it.  I haven’t had enough time to mourn.  And now I’m up in the air flying toward a possible catastrophe.  If someone tries to shoot me, I can literally disappear!  I don’t…want to be here!”

Phil “I know.  And we want this over with as soon as possible.  For now though…you’re not only someone we want to protect…you’re also an asset.  Besides, your friends will be meeting us.”

Sue “My friends?”

Somewhere in Texas.

The two of them fly side-by-side in formation.  They are in their own battle suits.  They have been thoroughly tested and today comes the first major chance to see how well the suits hold up in battle.  Natasha Stark and Pepper Potts are ready to save the day with their chosen identities.

Natasha “Ready Rescue?”

Pepper “When you are, Iron Woman.”

Natasha “Looks like we’ve got the Army coming from the West.”

Pepper “I see S.H.I.E.L.D. heading in from the East.  I hope Sue’s okay in there.”

Natasha “White van speeding on the highway.”

Pepper “Wait, you think X-Factor could be involved in this?”

Natasha “Check for a scan.”

Information emerges on a screen inside Natasha’s helmet with an indication of scanning occurring of the suspicious vehicle.

Natasha “Six people…and power level readings…yep I think that’s them.”

Pepper “Always wanted to meet those guys.  Not quite what I had in mind though.”

Back at the motel.

Betty rushes back inside after going out to retrieve breakfast.

Betty “Jen!  Jen, wake up.  They’re setting up checkpoints a few blocks from here.”

Jen’s eyes open.  She is felt with a mixture of tiredness and guilt.

Jen “All those people.  All those soldiers…”

Betty “Hey.”

Betty reaches down and kisses Jen on the lips.

Betty “You were protecting yourself.  You were protecting me.  If it was me, I’d do the same thing for you.”

Jen forces a smile, knowing Betty is sincere.  All of that destruction however does not make her feel any better about the situation.  Betty hands Jen some purple pants.

Betty “Here, try these on.  If something happens and you suddenly transform back into…”

Jen “The monster?  The She-Hulk?”

Betty “…In case you transform…these pants should be able to hold a little better.  It’s more of a stretch fabric.”

Jen “Well that’s pretty handy.”

As Jen slips into the pants, Betty takes another look outside.  Her jaw drops as she sees a white van pull up to the parking lot with six costumed individuals emerging from it, only for them to be distracted by two people in armored flying suits landing in front of them.  Suddenly the eight of them are surrounded by a pair of tanks and a bevy of soldiers, all with their firearms drawn, ready to fire.  All of them are then distracted by the sound of a plane flying low overhead with four S.H.I.E.L.D. agents riding in on modified motorcycles, one of which has a passenger riding along in a blue jumpsuit with a “4.”  Betty’s voice begins to shake.

Betty “Jen?  Jen…they’re all outside.”

She turns around and Jen is no longer there.  Just pure, green rage ready to let loose.

She-Hulk “Stand back, honey.  I’m about to smash.”

She walks toward, ready to kick it down and begin a massive wave of violence.

Somewhere in Texas.
