Hulk Pt. 2.
”My time in captivity taught me something.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
”What?” Bruce Banner yelled out as he heard what Major Talbot accused him of.
”Don’t play that game, Doctor. We both know you’re smart enough to know what you’ve been working on in your spare time.” Talbot quickly retorted. Bruce Banner thought back to what he was doing before he got here.
”The serum?” Banner replies.
”Do you understand the repercussions your actions will have? Not only on your life, but also the families of the dozens of people you killed and injured? The incredible amount of hospital bills all the funeral bills you’ve just created in one night. All the pain and suffering you caused in just a few hours. Do you realize the impact you’ve made?” Banner dropped his head as Talbot said these words.
He’s right. From his words, my simple want and need to become stronger caused hurt and pain that I’ll never be able to ever forgive myself of.
”I’m glad you’re sitting there in silence. It lets me know you’re truly sorry. Though that doesn’t explain why you did such a thing?”
”I… I don’t remember anything…” As Banner answered, the static of the intercom quickly silenced. Moments passed and the door to the left of Banner unlocked and the light from inside flooded the dimly lit room. The light swiftly faded away as the door was slammed shut from a man outside the room. This left only two men in the room, Banner and a man that Banner did not recognize. The man quickly walked over to Banner and grabbed a picture out of his pant pocket. He put it right in front of Banner’s face.
”Do you see her?” The man said and Banner quickly recognized it as the man who was just talking to him on the intercom. Before Bruce could talk, Talbot pulled the picture away from his face and placed it back in his pocket. ”Do you know who that was?”
”N… No… I’m sorry.”
”That’s my daughter. She is… was six years old…”
”Was?”
”You’re incessant rampage last night carried through downtown New York. There my daughter and wife were getting ready for bed. My wife was reading my daughter a bedtime story when all of the sudden…” Talbot stops and wipes a tear from his eye. He then grabs a small phone from his pocket and quickly pulls up a news article. He presses the video on the article and turns the phone to Banner. ”When all of the sudden, an eight foot, green man jumped through the floor. The rubble and debris were catastrophic. My daughter and wife were pinned to the ground and the building tumbled to the ground.”
Banner again dropped his head. He felt tears falling down his face. That was him. That was him tearing though buildings and leaving a trail of terror in his tracks. It was all his fault and he still didn’t know how much damage he actually did. Was the whole city of New York destroyed or just a couple blocks? How many are dead? How many were injured? All these thoughts and more fluttered through his mind as he lifted his head back up to Talbot.
”I’m sorry, I don’t remember anything…” Banner said, trying to somehow help his situation. For a moment Banner thought his words had somehow helped, but to his surprise, Talbot quickly turned around and punched him in the jaw. Blood and spit flew from Banner’s mouth as Talbot quickly punched the other side of Bruce’s face. ”I’m sorry…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
”Is that sometimes… No matter how sorry you are, they will always, always be angry with your actions. It doesn’t matter if you can’t remember your actions. It doesn’t matter if you try to tell them that you had no control over the matter. You’re still the face of their suffering and you’re the one that they’ll see and remember that they’ve lost something valuable. I do not blame these people for thinking that way. I understand the reasoning. It’s my fault and I know it…”
