Within seconds, a bright green flash of light engulfed him, and when it faded, the group found themselves staring at a hulking alien form unlike anything they'd ever seen before. Standing before them was Gravattack, a living planetoid with a rocky, molten surface that seemed to pulsate with cosmic energy. His body was rough and jagged, resembling a miniature planet with craggy continents and glowing green fissures running along his massive frame. His eyes glowed with an otherworldly energy, and the Omnitrix symbol on his chest was embedded like a core, radiating a soft green light.

With his oversized, muscular arms and a mischievous grin splitting his rock-like face, Gravattack exuded a confidence that matched his size. "Now we're talking gravity versus gravity!" he bellowed, his deep, gravelly voice echoing like distant tectonic plates grinding together. As he clenched his massive fists, the very air around him seemed to distort slightly, as though the sheer weight of his presence was bending the fabric of reality.

Thor raised an eyebrow at the transformation. "By the gods, what manner of creature is this?"

"Let's just say I'm Gravattack," the alien said, his voice laced with humor, "and gravity's kind of my thing. Let's see how he likes being on the receiving end for a change!"

...

"My~ my~ Looks like you have gotten smarter since we last met." Albedo muttered with a sinister grin in his face. "That's good to know."

...

"Let's end this!" Gravattack bellowed, his voice rumbling like a seismic quake. He thrust his massive hand outward, the fissures along his rocky arm glowing brighter with each passing second. The air around him rippled and distorted as if the very laws of physics were bending under his command.

Graviton's glowing eyes narrowed as he noticed his gravitational field falter slightly. "You think you can match my power, you insignificant pile of rubble?" he sneered, raising both hands to amplify his gravitational onslaught.

Gravattack grinned, his jagged teeth glinting like shards of molten rock. "Match it? I am it." The Omnitrix emblem on his chest pulsed with energy, emitting a steady glow that intensified with every passing second. Gravattack extended his hands outward, his rocky fingers curling as if gripping the very fabric of gravity itself. The air around him became heavy, vibrating with an unseen force, as he unleashed a counterforce that rippled through the battlefield like a tidal wave.

The ground beneath them groaned in protest, cracks spiderwebbing outward as if the earth itself was being torn apart by the opposing gravitational forces. Splinters of asphalt and chunks of debris were ripped from the ground, hovering in midair before being caught in the chaotic push-and-pull of their cosmic tug-of-war. Shipping containers groaned under the strain, some floating weightlessly, others crushed into mangled heaps by the surging pressure.

Graviton hovered above the chaos, his dark cloak billowing in the swirling winds of their clash. His glowing eyes flickered with irritation as he felt the equilibrium of his gravitational field begin to falter. "You dare challenge me?" he spat, his voice laced with venom. He raised both hands, palms outstretched, and the gravitational field surrounding him surged outward in a violent wave. The pressure was suffocating, forcing the Avengers to stagger backward, bracing themselves against the sheer force of it.

But Gravattack didn't flinch. He stood firm, his planetary surface glowing brighter with the power of his cosmic core. His cracks and fissures, illuminated by molten energy, radiated an intense light that cut through the swirling dust and debris. "You're not the only one who can manipulate the weight of the world!" Gravattack bellowed, his voice rumbling like a tectonic shift.

He planted his feet firmly on the fractured ground, his stance unyielding as he drew more power from within. His core pulsed, a rhythmic thrum like the heartbeat of a living planet, as he focused his energy. The gravitational field around him grew stronger, creating a localized singularity that began to disrupt Graviton's attacks. The sheer force of Gravattack's countermeasure caused Graviton to falter mid-air, his previously unshakable control over gravity beginning to waver.

"Impossible!" Graviton growled, his tone dripping with disbelief. He clenched his fists, pouring more energy into his assault, but the balance of power was shifting. Gravattack's gravitational pull grew stronger, wresting control away from the self-proclaimed master of gravity.

The debris caught in the tug-of-war began to shift toward Gravattack's side, as if drawn to him by an irresistible force. Chunks of asphalt, twisted metal, and shattered glass orbited him like satellites around a planet, creating a swirling halo of destruction. Gravattack grinned wider, his jagged teeth glinting menacingly. "Looks like your little gravity act isn't as impressive as you thought," he quipped, his voice dripping with confidence.

Graviton's expression twisted into a snarl. "You insignificant pile of rocks! I will crush you under the weight of a thousand suns!" He unleashed a massive surge of gravitational energy, a shimmering pulse that distorted the air around it, bending light as it hurtled toward Gravattack.

But Gravattack was ready. He slammed his fists together, generating a shockwave of gravitational force that collided with Graviton's attack. The impact sent a massive ripple through the battlefield, shaking the earth and creating a thunderous boom that echoed for miles.

Graviton was pushed backward, struggling to maintain his balance in mid-air. His cloak flapped wildly in the turbulence, and for the first time, there was a hint of uncertainty in his glowing eyes. Gravattack, on the other hand, stood tall and resolute, his glowing fissures pulsating like veins of molten magma.

"This is your last chance, Graviton," Gravattack said, his tone calm but firm. "Stand down, or I'll show you just how small you really are in the grand scheme of the universe."

Graviton hesitated, his glowing eyes flicking between Gravattack and the wreckage surrounding them. The battlefield was a testament to the power of their clash, but it was clear who was gaining the upper hand. Gravattack's grin widened as he watched the realization dawn on his opponent's face.

...

"Remind me to never get on that guy's bad side," Tony muttered, his voice crackling slightly through his suit's comm system. Despite the sarcasm in his words, there was a hint of genuine awe behind them. The readouts on his HUD were struggling to make sense of the gravitational distortions flooding the battlefield. Numbers blinked red, graphs spiked erratically, and every sensor in the suit screamed that the situation was teetering on the brink of catastrophe. "Seriously, I think my suit's about to throw in the towel. It's like the laws of physics don't even matter anymore."

The group stood on the edge of the chaos, the violent winds from the gravitational clash tugging at their bodies and kicking up debris all around them. Wasp buzzed in mid-air, her wings struggling against the turbulent forces as she kept her distance. Her wide eyes were glued to the scene unfolding before them. "Shouldn't we be... I don't know... helping him?" she asked, her voice rising an octave with worry as she gestured toward Gravattack.

"Oh, don't worry about that," Rex said, flashing a confident grin as he gestured with his thumb toward something-or rather, someone-looming behind Graviton. "I'm sure the big guy would be happy to lend a hand."

Graviton, his focus still locked on Gravattack, initially paid no mind to the comment. But then the faint sound of deep, guttural breathing reached his ears, followed by a low growl that rumbled through the air like an oncoming storm. His head turned slowly, the smug expression on his face evaporating in an instant.

Standing there, barely restrained fury etched into every muscle of his massive frame, was the Hulk. His towering figure cast a long shadow across the battlefield, his emerald skin glistening with sweat and the remnants of battle. His chest heaved with barely-contained rage, and his glowing green eyes locked onto Graviton with a feral intensity that could freeze blood.

The Hulk cracked his knuckles, the sound echoing like gunshots as he took a single, deliberate step forward. Each footfall left a crater in the concrete, and the ground beneath them trembled in protest. He tilted his head slightly, regarding Graviton as if sizing him up, before finally breaking the silence with a deep, guttural snarl.

"Gravity man talk too much," Hulk growled, his voice low and menacing, like thunder rolling through the air. "Hulk smash now."

Graviton visibly faltered, the oppressive confidence he had exuded moments ago now replaced with an unmistakable flicker of fear. "You think brute strength will stop me? I am the master of-"

He didn't get the chance to finish his sentence.

With a deafening roar, Hulk launched himself forward like a cannonball, the sheer force of his leap sending debris flying in all directions. He closed the distance in an instant, his massive fist swinging in a devastating arc. Graviton barely managed to raise his gravitational shield, but it did little to soften the impact. Hulk's punch connected with an earth-shattering force, sending Graviton hurtling backward like a ragdoll.

The villain smashed into a cluster of shipping containers with enough force to reduce them to twisted metal and rubble. As the dust settled, Graviton staggered to his feet, his once-pristine suit now torn and dirty, his face etched with frustration and panic.

Meanwhile, Hulk landed with a thundering crash, rising to his full height as he glared at his opponent. "Hulk not impressed," he snarled, pounding his fists together in a display of raw power.

Rex leaned casually against a battered shipping container, arms crossed and a confident smirk plastered across his face as he watched the battlefield unfold. The air was thick with tension and the distant crackle of energy, but Rex seemed unfazed, his gaze fixed on the sheer chaos before him.

"See? Told you the big guy had it covered," he said, his voice dripping with smug satisfaction as if this entire scenario had gone exactly according to some plan he'd written in his head.

Not far above him, Tony Stark hovered in his gleaming suit of armor, the repulsors in his boots letting out a low, steady hum. From his elevated vantage point, Tony surveyed the scene with a mix of disbelief and resignation. His HUD flickered with streams of data: seismic activity from Hulk's ground-shaking charges, gravitational distortions radiating from Graviton's erratic power surges, and even a faint cosmic energy signature emanating from Gravattack. It was like trying to monitor a natural disaster in real-time-and Hulk was the eye of the storm.

Tony let out a weary sigh, leaning forward slightly as if that would make any of it make more sense. He raised a gauntleted hand to his helmet, the gesture half-instinctive as though trying to soothe an impending headache.

"Okay," he muttered to himself, his voice carrying the dry sarcasm only Stark could deliver. "Note to self: never tick off Hulk. That's just asking for trouble."

Below, Hulk was making good on that observation. With an earth-shaking roar, the green behemoth snatched up a jagged piece of a broken shipping container, his massive hands gripping it like it was a toy. Tony could practically hear the metal groaning in protest as Hulk's fingers dug into it.

In one smooth, terrifying motion, Hulk hurled the container toward Graviton. The massive projectile cut through the air like a missile, slamming into the villain's gravitational barrier with a deafening clang. Sparks flew as the force of the impact sent shockwaves rippling outward, knocking loose debris and forcing even the most stable structures in the area to tremble. Graviton, for all his power, visibly staggered under the assault, his face contorting in frustration as he struggled to maintain his grip on his gravitational field.

Tony winced, partly in sympathy and partly because the seismic feedback was making his sensors scream in protest. He adjusted his altitude slightly, trying to stay clear of any more improvised missiles Hulk might decide to throw.

Switching back to the open comms, Tony's voice came through clear and sharp. "Seriously, can we all agree to keep him happy? Cookies? Yoga? Whatever it takes. Because if he ever gets mad at us..."

He trailed off deliberately, letting the sight of Hulk-roaring like some ancient titan of destruction and charging Graviton with the raw, unrelenting force of nature-finish the thought for him.

Rex chuckled from his perch, clearly enjoying the spectacle. "You're not wrong, Tin Man. But hey, at least he's on our side, right?"

Tony snorted softly, his repulsors flaring slightly as he stabilized himself against another shockwave. "For now," he quipped, his voice laced with mock optimism. "Let's just keep it that way."

Wasp's voice crackled over the comms, her usual playful tone tinged with a hint of nervousness. "Not to interrupt your little bonding moment, but does anyone else feel like we're just... extras in this fight?"

Tony smirked under his helmet, his gaze still on Hulk, who was now tearing through another pile of debris like it was made of paper. "Extras? Nah. Think of us as... the support team. Moral support. From a very safe distance."

The faint sound of Hulk's bellowing echoed across the battlefield, punctuated by the metallic clang of something else being smashed to bits. Tony adjusted his position once more, making sure he stayed well out of Hulk's path.

"Yeah," he added quietly, mostly to himself. "Definitely not getting on his bad side anytime soon."
_______________________________________________
And scene! A massive improvement over the previous chapters while still keeping to the same writing style for the story. Thank God, I was kind of worried that this chapter would come out the same length as the previous versions and barely push past a thousand words.

It's not perfect but hey it's a step into the right direction. Hopefully I can do the same thing for Aliens of Justice...

Happy New Year everyone!

See you guys next time!
