Chapter 5: Fury
Commander Nick Fury, leader of the government organization S.H.E.I.L.D had traveled to royal woods in search of a very dangerous and powerful anomaly.
The alien parasite known as Venom.
He didn't want to blow things out of proportion and cause a panic. So, he brought with him a small team of elite soldiers. As well as one of the strongest of the Avengers
A blond woman in a red and blue jump suit named Carol Danvers A.K.A Captain Marvel.
Of, course Fury knew what Venom was capable of, so he warned his men not to underestimate Venom.
"And that means you too Danvers." Nick said.
"With all due respect sir." Captain Marvel replied. "I'm not too worried about a living ball of slime."
"Maybe you should be." Nick Fury said looking at the mangled disembodied legs on the floor of Gus' Games and Grub.
"Oh my gosh it's Captain Marvel!" an onlooker shrieked. "Can I get your autograph?"
"You think this is going to be a problem?" Captain Marvel motioned to the crowd.
"That's why I chose not to take Stark on this mission." Nick Fury said. "There is no way he can keep focused through all this fanfare."
"Plus, I'm a much better hero than that pig could ever dream of being." Captain Marvel smirked.
"We're not here to discuss politics Mrs. Danvers," Fury said. "We're here to protect this mother fucking town."
"Don't you think I'm a little overqualified?" Marvel asked. "I mean I'm used to taking on villains with godlike powers and entire armadas. And you have me down here hunting a glorified tapeworm."
"You should keep that ego in check Captain Marvel." Fury said. "And keep your eyes peeled. Venom has a new host, and it could be anybody."
...
Lincoln woke in the morning. He had an empty feeling, but it was not hunger.
He walked out into the hallway. Suddenly he smelled something delicious. He fallowed the smell and found it was coming from Lucy and Lynn's room.
Inside the room he saw his siter Lynn doing pull ups from the doorframe. The smell was coming from her.
"Morning Stincoln." Lynn said, sweat dripping down her face. "Lucy didn't come home last night, you know what happened to her?"
"She uh... is staying at Haiku's for the weekend." Lincoln said. "Are you wearing a knew perfume?"
"Oh, come one bro, you know I don't were perfume." Lynn said.
Lincoln recognized the smell. It was body odor, but for some reason Lincoln found himself liking, even loving the smell.
Lincoln rushed back into his room.
"Ok talk to me Venom." Lincoln said. "Why am I suddenly enjoying the smell of Lynn's BO."
"We are a predator now." Venom responded. "To a predator, the smell of sweat means that food is nearby."
"Ok, I guess that makes sense. I'm not going to start liking the smell of Lily's dirty diapers now am I?" Lincoln said.
"Of course not, even I have my limits." Venom replied.
"Side note, we cannot eat Lynn." Lincoln whispered.
"Why not?" Venom said. "We ate Lucy."
"That's different, she was threatening to expose us." Lincoln said. He held his stomach. "Oh Lucy... What am I becoming?"
He pulled out his cell phone and called his best friend Clyde. He needed some guidance.
"Hey buddy what's up?" Clyde answered his phone.
"Oh, I don't know I..." Lincoln said. "Things are pretty crazy right now."
"How so?" Clyde asked.
"Oh just... Clyde I need advice. What would you do if you really hurt someone you care about?" Lincoln asked. "In a way you can't take back."
"Did you try apologizing to them?" Clyde asked.
"Uh... that's not an option." Lincoln replied.
"Well, you won't know unless you try." Clyde said. "They may seem like they don't wanna listen, but doctor Lopez says that..."
"Trust me, Clyde." Lincoln said. "Any contact with this person is very very impossible."
"Oh well... I don't know what to tell you." Clyde said. "But in lighter news, Rusty just told me that the Avengers are in town?"
"The Avengers?" Lincoln's heart sank.
"Well not all of them. Just Captain Marvel, and possibly Nick Fury." Clyde said. "But still, isn't that exciting?"
"Captain Marvel is here?" Lincoln gulped.
"Yeah, apparently there was some sort of robbery at Gus's Games and Grub." Clyde replied. "And some sort of supervillain was involved."
Lincoln was breaking into a nervous sweat.
"Wow, that's very interesting Clyde. I have to go now." Lincoln hung up the phone.
"So Fury has found me." Venom said. "And he brought his girlfriend with him."
"This is bad." Lincoln said. "This is really bad. Think Lincoln, what do you know about Captain Marvel? She can fly, she's really strong."
"And she can shoot fire out of her fingertips." Venom said. "I hate fire."
"We cannot let Fury and Marvel find us." Lincoln said. "If they do, we are toast."
"Now we haven't lost yet" Venom explained. "Contrary to what the media may tell you. Captain Marvel is not indestructible."
"She's not?"
"Her powers can run out eventually." Venom said. "She is also weak to psychic and magic attacks. Too bad we had to kill Lucy. But she is still human, technically and she can be killed."
...
Nick Fury sat in a dark room watching the security footage he obtained from the arcade.
Integration of the witness, a cashier at Gus's Games and Grub had confirmed that Venom was present.
Captain Marvel sat next to him as they watched.
"Right there." Nick said. Pointing at the lower left-hand corner of the screen.
Everyone on the video was focused on the robbers with guns and didn't see it, but the cameras did. A small child with white hair. Just moments after the first shots were fired, the little white-haired boy got out of his seat and transformed. In just a few short frames, the white-haired boy was gone and in his place was the big black mass known as Venom.
"Got you motherfucker." Nick said.
"That's Venom's new host?" Marvel laughed. "That scrawny little kid."
"Don't let this kid fool you, Carol." Nick said. "This kid may look innocent, but he's got a powerful monster inside of him."
"Oh, trust me, I have no problems killing that little brat." Marvel said. "It's for the greater good right? I'll make it quick. Blast the kid to oblivion and you guys can come up with whatever cover story you want to tell his family."
"That's cold Carol." Nick said.
"Like I said, I regularly fight in galaxy spanning wars." Marvel said. "Sometimes you have to sacrifice the few to save the many. Killing this kid could save an entire town of kids just like him. And I've heard plenty about this monster of yours. He's just a living booger, stop overselling him."
"If that helps you sleep at night." Nick said. "But this isn't going to be easy. Venom's first host was spider-man, and the symbiote was able to retain some of Spider-man's abilities when it was separated from him. Including his spider sense which..."
"Ok boomer, whatever." Marvel cut Nick off. "Let's go squish this bug and get it over with, so I can move on to more important matters."
"Well, just be glad it's not the other one." Nick Fury said.
"Other one?"
"Trust Me Carol." Nick said. "The less I say about THAT motherfucker, the batter."
...
Lincoln had made his way back to his hideout in the woods.
"We need to clean up any blood left over from Carol Pingrey." Venom said.
...
Lori Loud answered a knock on the front door. She opened the door to see Nick Fury and Captain Marvel on the other side.
"Can I help you?" Lori asked.
"Yes, we're looking for a Lincoln Loud, does he live here? We have some questions for him." Nick said. "He was a witness to a bank robbery last night and we would like to get any information he might have on the suspect."
"Yeah, he's my little brother. Hey, aren't you Captain Marvel?" Lori said, noticing Captain Marvel.
"I sure am." Captain Marvel explained.
"Great! Lincoln just loves superheroes. He is going to be so happy to see you." Lori said.
"I bet he will." Captain Marvel smirked.
"So, he's out in this stupid hideout thing he has in Royal Woods." Lori said. "That's Royal Woods the forest surrounding the town, not the actual town itself. I can tell you exactly where it is if you'd like."
"That would be very helpful ma'am thanks." Nick said.
"Do you need me to come with you?" Lori asked.
"No that won't be necessary but thanks." Nick said.
Then Lori gave them directions to Lincoln's hideout.
"Hey remember," Captain Marvel said before her and Nick Fury left. "Women can do anything, don't let anyone tell you otherwise."
"Right on sister!" Lori responded.
Once Lori closed the door she couldn't help but feel something wasn't right.
...
Lincoln scrubbed every bit of Blood from the floor of his hideout.
Once the job was done, he stood up and whipped the sweat from his forehead.
"We can't take any chances of S.H.E.I.L.D finding this DNA." Venom explained. "If they catch us it will be very bad. Very bad for the both of us."
Lincoln's heart nearly stopped as he got out of the cave to see Nick fury standing just outside with Captain Marvel by his side.
"Lincoln Loud..." Nick Fury Said. "Or should I say Venom?"
"So uh... you wouldn't happen to be here to talk to me about the Avengers initiative would you?" Lincoln said.
"Unfortunately, no." Nick said. "This is Carol Danvers, or as you may know her Captain Marvel. And she's here, to kick your little alien ass back to Mars."
"Venom's not from Mars." Lincoln said.
"Motherfucker, you know what I mean." Nick said.
"Oh, please no!" Lincoln begged, getting down on his knees. "I'm just a kid. There are so many things I Haven't done yet."
"Sorry kid." Captain Marvel said. "But your life ends here." Then she shot a blast of energy from her hands at Lincoln's face.
Lincoln quickly rolled out of the way before the energy could hit him.
"What the hell?" Captain Marvel said in disbelief.
"I was trying to tell he's fucking fast!" Nick said. "Oh look at me, I'm Captain Marvel, the strongest hero in the universe. I don't need to listen to old Nick Fury, this Venom guy is just a ball of slime inside a scared little child."
Then Nick took out a handgun and fired four or five rounds at Lincoln, who managed to dodge them with ease like he was from the Matrix.
"See." Nick said. "The Mother fucker can even dodge my bullets like he was fucking Neo or agent fuckin' Smith."
Then Lincoln transformed into Venom and gave a menacing roar.
"Oh yeah, just a glorified tapeworm, isn't he?" Nick mocked.
"Get ready Lincoln. This is going to be the fight of our lives." Venom said.
"Wait you said she can run out of power, right?" Lincoln asked.
"Yes, yes she can." Venom said.
"Uh, is this creep talking to himself?" Marvel asked.
"The host and the parasite can communicate with one another." Nick Fury explained. "Yet another thing that makes this motherfucker way more deadly than some living booger. Two heads are better than one as they say."
Then to Fury and Marvel's surprise Venom turned back into Lincoln.
"Uh... Fury? What's he doing now?" Marvel asked.
"I have no fucking idea." Nick Fury said.
Then Lincoln ran away as fast as he could. He started to shoot out webs and swing through the trees to gain speed.
Captain Marvel took off after him like a rocket.
"Oh, mother fucker!" Nick said as he started to realize what Lincoln was doing. "He's heading for town. CAROL WAIT!!!!"
...
Channel 5 news anchor Catherine Mulligan and her news crew were stationed outside Royal Woods Park.
"Alright team. We've received word that Captain Marvel, yes THE Captain Marvel is right here in Royal Woods." Catherin said. "Now all we need to do is find her and interview her. Imagine how many views we'll get interviewing an actual Avenger."
Just then someone came running out of the woods.
"Is that that Lincoln Loud kid?" Catherin said.
"Somebody help! She's trying to kill me!" Lincoln screamed as he ran toward the news team.
"Well, this is interesting." Catherin said. "Roll the cameras. Let's go live with this."
Just then Captain Marvel rose from the tree line, her body engulphed in cosmic energy.
She shot huge blasts of energy at Lincoln who managed to jump out of the way.
"Oh my god!" Catherin said as the scene unfolded.
"Everybody look. Captain Marvel is attacking that innocent child!" a civilian called out.
"Oh my gosh. That's Lincoln!" said a girl, Leni's friend Fiona.
Then Nick Fury came running out of the woods. "Carol no! it's a trap!" he slowed down as he noticed a massive crowd beginning to form. "A trap that you fell for, hook line and sinker."
"Breaking news. A hero gone made!" Catherine said into the camera. "I'm Catherine Mulligan live from this heartbreaking scene."
Behind her Lincoln ran around in circles as Captain Marvel circled above him and blasted beams of energy trying to hit the white-haired boy.
"It seams that once beloved hero and Avenger, Captain Marvel has shockingly opened fire on local 12-year-old Lincoln Loud." Catherine said. "What prompted the universes strongest hero to open fire on a defenseless child? As of yet we have no answers, but it is disturbing to say the least."
Nick Fury made his way to the news team. "Could you please turn off these fucking cameras."
"I don't think so pal." Catherine said. "The people have a right to know what's going on here. Freedom of the press is a constitutional right."
Nick Fury sighed. "I suppose it is, isn't it?"
"So, Director Fury, what can you tell us about this sudden outburst from Captain Marvel?" Catherine asked.
Nick could have told them the truth, That Lincoln was a monster. But he had no guarantee the public would believe him. Nick Fury was at a huge disadvantage here. He knew nothing about this town, and they didn't know him. But the town did know Lincoln, the real Lincoln, who he was before Venom. And for all Nick new, before getting infected by Venom, Lincoln was probably a good kid who was well liked by his community. If Nick Fury were to defend Captain Marvel at this point, he would be running a risk of making himself and the entirety of S.H.E.I.L.D look like a corrupt organization. And if the people's faith in S.H.E.I.L.D was lost, they'd risk an uprising from the very people they aimed to protect.
Nick Fury had no choice but to condemn Captain Marvel.
"Look, I cannot give you all the details." Nick said. "But what I can say is this. Captain Marvel, Myself, And a select team of S.H.E.I.L.D agents came here to Royal Woods on a very important and sensitive mission. And as you can see Captain Marvel disobeyed a direct order and refused to listen to highly important information."
Lincoln ran toward the news van. Captain Marvel landed on the ground.
"GRAH! It should not be this hard to kill a little boy!" Captain Marvel Yelled as the Crowd gasped.
"I would like the record to show, that neither I, nor S.H.E.L.D condone Captain Marvel's actions here today." Nick Fury said to the press.
"Hold still you little runt!" Captain Marvel said before shooting another blast at Lincoln.
Lincoln dodged the energy blast and it hit Catherine's new van, blowing it up in a ball of fire.
"THAT WAS MY VAN YOU BITCH!!!!" Catherine yelled. "I am so taking you guys to court for this!"
"Get down!" Lincoln yelled as another energy blast was shot toward the crowd. He tackled Catherine to the ground just in time before the energy blast hit. Instead, the blast hit the camera man and blew him to pieces, sending his blood and guts scattering over the field.
"AND MY CAMERA!" Catherine roared. "Oh... and the camera man too."
"Captain Marvel I order you to stand down." Nick Fury ordered.
Captain Marvel started to calm down.
"Seriously you call yourself a hero?" Lincoln said.
"I am a hero." Captain Marvel said. "I'm the greatest hero in the universe you little monster!"
"Really? Because you just blew up a news van and killed an innocent man." Lincoln pointed out. "All in the pursuit of trying to kill me, a 12-year-old boy. You're the monster here."
"Are you guys really going to believe this kid over me?" Captain Marvel said. "I'm an Avenger, THE Avenger. The damn team is named after me! This kid is not what he looks like. He's a little monster and has you all fooled! Open your eyes people!"
Catherine got up and brushed the dirt off of her yellow suit and skirt. "Look lady. I've been working in this town since before Lincoln was even born. And while he and his family may have a few flaws, from what I can tell they've always been model citizens, especially Lincoln."
"I don't know what kind of weird space drugs you're on," Fiona said, joining the group. "But Lincoln Loud is a saint. His sister Leni happens to be one of my best friends. And Lincoln may make a few mistakes here and there, but he's always looking out for his friends and family."
"This is exactly what I was afraid would happen." Nick fury sighed.
"Oh my gosh Lincoln!" Lori came running into the crowd, tears in her eyes. "Are you ok?"
She gave her brother a hug once she reached him.
"I saw what was happening on the news and literally rushed over right away." Lori said.
"Captain Marvel was trying to hurt me." Lincoln cried. "And now she... she's calling me a monster."
Lori glared at Captain Marvel. "What is wrong with you? Lincoln is literally just a child!"
"But... I'm an Avenger." Captain Marvel said.
"Yeah, until Nick Fury fires you for what you did today." Lincoln said.
"Fury?" Captain Marvel looked at her commanding officer.
"Well, you know," Fury said awkwardly. "This is really bad for publicity."
Captain Marvel growled in rage and her eyes lit up like fire. Then she shot blasts of energy from her eyes at Lincoln and Lori.
Lincoln was quick enough to get both himself and Lori out of the way. Unfortunately, an old lady standing behind them was turned into hamburger from Captain Marvel's energy blast.
"She just killed an old lady." Someone in the crowd yelled.
Lincoln ran further into town and Captain Marvel fallowed him, now full of rage.
"Soldiers, we have a new priority target." Nick said into his radio. "Captain Marvel should now be considered hostile and extremely dangerous. She is the new priority target. I repeat Captain Marvel is priority target."
This was no longer a fight, it was a game of chess. And Nick Fury would have to plan his next move very carefully.
Lincoln made his way to the arcade.
"Hey, Stincoln what's going on?" Lynn said as Lincoln burst through the doors.
Lynn and her friends were playing in the arcade and did not know of the events unfolding in town.
"Yeah, we heard some explosions." Lynn's best friend Margo added.
"No time to explain. But you guys gotta run!' Lincoln said.
Then Captain Marvel burst through the front door, blasting a massive hole in the building.
"Alright you little monster, this ends here." Captain Marvel said.
"Hey! Leave my little brother alone." Lynn called out.
"Are you fucking serious?" Captain Marvel said turning her attention to Lynn. "How many sisters can one kid have?"
Then Lincoln threw a plate at Captain Marvel's head, regaining her attention.
"It's me you want Danvers, remember?" Lincoln said.
While keeping her eyes trained on Lincoln, Captain Marvel shot an energy blast to her left side, directly at Lynn and her friends.
The blast hit Margo directly in the center of her body. Margo exploded and her blood splattered all over Lynn's face.
"Margo NNNOOOOOO!!!!" Lynn yelled. Lynn's other friends pulled her out of the arcade as she screamed and cried in anger.
Lincoln noticed a 50s style juke box next to him. He hit it with his fist, and it started to play "U Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer.
"My my my. Music hits me, so hard. Makes me say oh my Lord."
Lincoln started twirling and dancing to the music while effortlessly dodging Captain Marvel's energy blasts.
He back flipped and cartwheeled around the room narrowly dodging energy blasts that lay waste to the walls, tables, and machines in the arcade like they were made of Legos.
Soon a crowd of bystanders gathered, filming the entire scene with their phones.
Lincoln dodged a blast that shot through the front windows of the arcade and into Don Juan's French Mex Buffet across the street, causing the entire restaurant to erupt in a ball of flames. Dozens of people ran out screaming as they were engulphed in flames.
The juke box continued playing as Lincoln kept Dodging Marvel's strikes.
"Yo, let me bust the funky Iyrics
You can't touch this
Fresh new kicks and pants
You got it like that
Now you know you wanna dance
So, move outta your seat "
Captain Marvel paused for a moment. She was growing out of breath and starting to hyperventilate.
"It's working, she's losing power!" Venom said inside Lincoln's head.
"Carol Danvers!" Nick Fury yelled. He stood outside the arcade, joined by a squad of S.H.E.I.L.D soldiers with assault rifles aimed at Captain Marvel. As well as a mother fucking tank.
"Help!" Lincoln ran out of the building and hid behind Nick Fury.
"Get out of my way Fury." Captain Marvel panted.
"I'm gonna need you to stand down Danvers." Nick warned. "This is your last chance. The weapons these men are holding, as well as this tank behind me are powered by one of the infinity stones. That means they are more than capable of hurting, and even killing you at your strongest. And as I can see, your batteries are running low."
"Oh, you mother fucker!" Captain Marvel growled. Then she shot a blast of energy at Nick Fury, hoping to kill both Nick Fury and Lincoln who was hiding behind him.
However, Lincoln was able to tackle Nick out of the way before they got hit with the energy blast.
Nick looked up at Lincoln standing over him, realizing that the boy had saved his life.
"You... you saved me." Fury choked out.
Lincoln knelt down to whisper in Nick Fury's ear.
"And the whole world saw." Lincoln whispered.
Realizing Lincoln's play Nick fury sighed. "Fuck." Nick stood to his feet. "OPEN FIRE!!!!!"
"It was just a ball of slime." Captain Marvel whimpered in disbelief. "A glorified tape worm, inside a small child. A living booger."
Then the former Avenger was struck with a barrage of blue energy blasts. She twisted and jerked as splats of blood erupted from her body.
Finally, the tank finished her off hitting her with an explosive blast, ripping her body apart. Captain Marvel's disembodied head slammed into the juke box finally turning it off.
Then the entire arcade collapsed.
"Goodbye, old friend." Nick Fury let out a mournful sigh.
A helicopter descended into the streets.
Nick turned his attention to Lincoln. "This may be check kid, but it ain't mate." He headed for the chopper. Just before he got on board, he looked back at Lincoln one last time.
"And believe me, Venom." Nick called out. "My next move will come very soon."
Nick and the S.H.E.I.L.D agents took off.
...
Later that night, Lincoln had returned to his hideout.
He stood in front of a table and started coughing.
He hacked a slime covered human skull that landed on the table with a splat.
The skull still had a bit of Lucy's skin stuck to it, as well as a few clumps of black hair.
Venom's face materialized from Lincoln's body to talk to him face to face.
"Well, that whole thing it was..." Venom said. "Like nothing I had ever seen. You are a very clever young boy Lincoln Loud."
"Thanks." Lincoln said. "They, say the pen is mightier than the sword. I wasn't about to enter a fight I knew I couldn't win. Instead, it's better to turn the public against one's enemy. From now on, to the rest of the world, Captain Marvel is a monster. After seeing the destruction she caused, even in death she will be a pariah. And as far as the rest of the world is concerned, I am simply a sweet innocent child. And once the public saw Marvel attacking what hey believe to be an innocent victim, it would have been a P.R nightmare for S.H.E.L.D not to turn on Captain Marvel and deal with her for us."
"So why exactly are we coughing up our lunch?" Venom asked. "You know you can't bring your sister back from the dead."
"No, but I can still use her remains to throw suspicion off of myself for the murders we've committed so far." Lincoln said, taking a rag and whipping the spit off of Lucy's skull. "We'll just sneak the remains of our victims into the wreckage, and it will be assumed they're just more victims of a fallen hero gone mad."
Lincoln opened the cooler next to the table to reveal the remains of Chandler, and two of the eight graders Venom had killed.
...
That Monday when Lincoln walked into school, the hallways erupted with the sounds of all his classmates cheering him on.
"Way to go, Lincoln!" one kid cheered.
"You're my new hero!" another cheered.
"Are you seeing anyone?" Girl Jordan asked.
"Lincoln!" Clyde ran up to Lincoln. "Footage of your fight with Captain Marvel went viral. You're a total celebrity!"
"Way to stick it to that crazy bitch Lincoln!" Another kid cheered.
Stella joined Lincoln and Clyde in the hallway. "Man, I can't believe Captain Marvel, an avenger would try to hurt you like that. You've never even hurt a fly."
"They should officially make you an honorary Avenger!' Another kid called out.
"Well Lincoln." Venom said. "I told you I'd make you the most popular kid in school. And boy did I deliver."
"Oh, I know." Lincoln said with a cocky half smile and a bounce of his eyebrows. "I know."
Can't touch this...
