"when is it going to be done," asked chief as he sat in a chair started playing pin finger with an army knife while having a smile on his face.

"do not worry sir the schematics should be up and running in two minutes," said hank pym as he left the room with LS and hank McCoy.

He had begun he's work shortly after the subjugation of the watcher, he was mentally sterilised ( forgot about all familial bonds that could have hindered his progress) and given the general dose of hallucinogen.

it was strict orders from jax after his return to bring him up because he had found out that pym had solved the formula for pym particles, although they had yet to figure out the kinks relative that was why they had him come to base to continue his research to make a fresh new batch which he had been working on for the last 2 years

"begin slide show," said chief as he stopped playing and returned the knife to a pocket in his calf

"so" began LS," after numerous tests done on the specimen raven better known as mystique,"

"several tests were done on clones of her flesh and blood and we were able to extract a substance that seemed to activate her molecular transformation and after realising this we then went ahead and extracted eight ounces of the substance daily, we then purified the substance and created an agent that sped up molecular activity but we could not control it without a host so we began moving towards bio engineering and began to infuse genetically enhanced bio soldiers fit with an adamantium exoskeleton but ultimately failed because the bonding process with the host was inadequate with the substance." said LS as he showed pictures of dead people with plastic looking foam exploding out of their innards

"we at first thought it was the substance itself not finding a suitable host so we then scrapped the human experiments and moved to AI but we then ended up going through several prototypes and it was thanks to the primes return that we began to make a lot of progress although it took a lot of time we were able to use human bodies as the canvas and some of his Mystical codex's which enabled us to revolutionise robotic engineering and went a step beyond cyborgs and created a metallic life form however it was missing a conscious so we then patched together several AI and created a mainframe like conscious and it will only take orders from the higher brass which is either you or the prime." said LS with a tired yet excited smile on his face as he lifted the covers

chief looked on in slight amazement, it looked like a large grey human

"Here it is a metallic alloy based life form it is 12 ft and weighs as much as a double Decker and is  fitted with 3 inch thick adamantium skin acting as an exoskeleton also with tungsten alloy muscle fibres, titanium constructed cartilage and chromium built skeleton made up of adamantium laced arteries and is pumped with condensed Geo-thermal energy extracted from the core of this moon and some of the radioactive materials found deep in the outer core that could last it for the next couple millennia, this specimen could possibly take on an omega level mutant even without the substance." said LS

"but then what about the substance?" asked chief quite curiously as he inspected the being while it remained in Cryostasis

"as for the substance we obviously could not inject it into the fluid streams of the specimen so we re-engineered the substance to allow it to function within this being however we also had to replace some of the characteristics to fit its new host, for example it can now directly copy a mutant ability and thanks to the AI it can slightly improve it, we sent it down to ground control and had shaw use it in several training training sessions and send video feedback and it seems to work well with the elemental and psyonic users and some of the physical enhancers but it still needs improvement in the abstract areas such as gravity and teleportation so we brought it back up to update its AI...and before you say to be careful we have programmed an impregnable codex that was designed and taught to us by the prime to cage its conscious and if it begins to build even a speck of free will it would go through and almost reboot like phase," said LS as he stroked his goatee and marvelled and the specimen.

"hmmmm, this thing really is a monster huh," said chief as he took out a plasma gun and aimed at it's chest he then shot and a pinkish blue beam hit the life form directly on the chest but even after getting hit it did not even change colour.

"we constructed Nano-optic nervous system that covers both its central and peripheral nervous system and it has full connection to the AI so it can easily funnel the heat through its adamantium and feed it to the Geo-thermal core within," said LS with a proud smile

"alright..alright it's a monster but what i want to know is how many more can you make?" asked chief seriously

"well judging by how long we took to make this one i do believe... around a year and a half tops," replied LS

"so in three years we'll have two more of these beasts hehehe," he snickered in excitement

"~little eyeball little eyeball on the wall~ who gave you the gall ~the tenacity and the gall~ to attack my people with a head that big and a body that small~" sang jax as he walked into he's room pulled open a draw and took out a jar containing a slightly glowing eye he then began to play with the floating eye in the jar.

"hehehe your my little lucky ticket y'know, i know you left a piece of your conscious in there old guy

and i made sure to rip out everything you thought was gonna keep me out but don't worry i know you won't do anything stupid anymore cos if you could you would have already tried it but don't worry i won't hurt your eye cos this thing is my lucky ticket in this crazy world,"

"t'days the day and you know it," he smiled

"pl....ple..pleas..," whispered a pained voice in the air

jax simply smiled and started whistling as he cast some chains on the eyeball

"even the dead tell stories hehehe," giggled jax

"and i know you got a lot in there," he smiled

"so lets get ready to see one...ooh ooh and you know what make it a ghost story hahahahahahahahah," he laughed madly as a blinding light flashed across the room
