Hammond's Little Siblings
9/9/1948, Brooklyn, New York City
The Synthezoid had been looking around and as they looked around, the meeting with that strange man and the man with the cane when he saw that there was a noise, making her look around before Penny had seen that there was something which made her confused, seeing that there were people that were running away from her and police vehicles were coming in, making her surprised.
The officers started to get out and as she did so, the woman had seen that they were firing bullets which was making her scared, going and creating a wind barrier to protect herself from them, “Please don’t attack! I just want to see The Human Torch!” she shouted out towards the group, hearing that, the officers kept firing while she went to hide towards the roofs that were there.
Taking a breath, she looked towards the address that she had been given, but right now– before she could say anything, there was a burst of fire that made her flinch in shock towards them before seeing that the Human Torch had looked towards him with a grin before she saw that there was something which made the woman all the more worried on what was gonna happen now.

9/9/1948, Horton Laboratory, Brooklyn
The Human Fissure looked around towards everything before he knocked on the door, the air around him starting to coalesce and as it did so, the material started to make him appear more and more like a rock monster until the door opened, making him release the dust and Earth to look normal, “Phineas Horton? My project name is Human Fissure and–” “My prototype Horton Cells.” Phineas said.
He looked towards Phineas with some surprise before Fissure was taken in and it made the man surprised and a bit concerned by the sight as Phineas went to take a trio of containers out, revealing three different elements inside of the containers in question, making Fissure confused, “I was working on making improved versions of the original Horton Cells.” he said.
The man looked and he was surprised by the sight of the items, leaning down and as he did so, the man saw that there was something off, one was on fire, one was making a storm and the other seemed to be a little mountain, “No water?” Fissure asked, “No, there isn’t, but there’s a chance but–” he started to say before realizing something, “I have a few questions,” he told Fissure.
“How are you alive? Which element are you based off of? And why do you not have a name?” he asked and hearing that, Fissure tried to answer everything, “A group called Project Tomorrow made me and my sister, I am Earth, she is Wind, and They called me Human Fissure, I never needed a name.” he said and hearing that, Phineas stroked his chin and cocked his head to them.
“Franklin.” he said towards Fissure, making him confused by that statement, “I always liked Franklin as a boy name.” he said and hearing that, Franklin had shrugged, “Why not? I like it.” Franklin said towards Phineas, making him smile before there was a alert on his radio, making the two look and see that there was something about the Human Torch vs a living Storm and hearing that, they both worried.

The Squadron Supreme had looked around and as they did so, Desmond walked in, looking around towards them, “The Human Torch is fighting against some sort of Human Storm,” he said towards them, “It can be dangerous there, and I think that you’ll need to interfere.” he explained, making Zarda look towards the man, “You want us dealing with the storm? Help The Human Torch?” she asked.
Hearing that, the General nodded, “Make sure that they’re safe, stop the storm and make sure that The Human Torch can deal with them.” the General said and hearing that, the others had agreed with that, “Okay then, let's get going everyone!” she ordered, Skymax, Joseph, Robbie and most of the others agreed with that as they started to prepare for the fight.

Penny was terrified as she tried to kill out the fire, making sure that they couldn’t touch her, starting to make some cold weather, “Can you please stop attacking me?!” she shouted out and hearing that, Jim got worried by that, the sight of her was strange and it made Jim wonder why the person here seemed to have such strange powers until he saw that there was wiring from damage.
The man was shocked by the sight while Penny started to cover it, “No… No No No!” she shouted as the air around her started to wrap around until they saw that there was more people that were approaching and it made the two of them concerned by that before the Synthezoid saw that Joseph in a bubble approached the Human Torch, “What’s going on?” he asked with confusion.
“That is a synthezoid that has aerokinetic powers! I think that I hit something because her powers went out of control!” Jim said and hearing that, the Doctor sent a message to the others, telling them that there was a Synthezoid that was able to generate the winds there, the storm starting to make some of the vehicles and heavier items start to lift into the air.
“One second, let me bubble her.” Joseph said and hearing that, the man nodded, watching and seeing that there was something which made the bubble around Penny and as she was, the wind started to dissipate, but the bubble started to bubble and shift, making the man start to attempt to reinforce it, “We need to reinforce!” he shouted to the others that were more materials to use, Robbie on the run.
The Whizzer started to run in the opposite direction and as he did so, dispersing the storm, The Human Cyclone seemed to be rolling up into a fetal position now and as she did so, the winds got more and more fierce before there was a new person there who had looked worried as he looked towards them, “Stay away from my sister!” he shouted out, the concrete and stone starting to rise up and then shoot out.
Zarda who had been on standby, she went to block a large stone that had been fired towards Joseph while Robbie had jumped and avoided another which made them concerned as Jim went to focus on Franklin, “Who the Hell are you–?” “I’m Franklin, The Human Fissure, and that’s our sister, The Human Cyclone.” he said and hearing that, Jim looked towards him with caution as stone started to wrap around him.
“We just wanted to see our brother, but you’re trying to hurt us!” he snarled, the now stone giant charging forward and as he did so, Jim Hammond started to fly up, looking to them, “Don’t hurt her! They don’t want to fight!” He shouted towards The Squadron Supreme and hearing that, the group had been surprised by that before the one called Franklin used the nearby stone to rise up.
Launching himself in the air, he released the stone to get some more air and momentum before he landed in front of the bubble that was being made, “You damaged her circuitry!” he shouted in worry, taking a piece of the building and making a spear to stab through the bubble, making the Squaddies all look towards him as he leapt into the bubble now, turning the spear into more armor to protect him as Franklin entered.
As he started to do as much, the members all relieved by that when there was a noise which made Zarda turn to see one of the mechanical beings from Niagara Falls come in, having left the crate of a car trunk and ran towards one of the two of them, leaping up with a shriek now, going to tear into the bubble and materials that were there before finding them, but a large stone fist knocked them back.
Zarda, having seen that, ran forward, leaping up and stabbing it in the stomach, right where the backup computer was, the creature started to spasm, attempting to fight while Skymax had headed towards the truck, but there was no one inside of it, a machine there and it made the Skrull snarl, annoyed by that when another of those machines had shot out of the wall and grabbed him by the throat.
“Whizzer–!” he shouted as The Skrull was grabbed and flung, making him splat like silly putty, making Robbie run forward and then go to dismantle the machine piece by piece by piece until there was nothing but the computer left intact, while they had been working to dealing with the two machines, they looked and seen the Synthezoids who seemed relieved right now.
The woman had some stone wrapped around her wound like a bandage, making her smile towards the sight before she noticed that there was no more wind, no more stone, no more damage before The Squadron approached the two with Jim, “I think that we’re going to have to have a conversation back at home base.” Zarda told them and hearing that, the pair of them gave a look before nodding.

The two Synthezoids with The Squadron Supreme and Jim Hammond looked around and saw that the soldiers all had weapons aimed towards them and Penny and Franklin were both worried by the sight until the two Synthezoids started to get anxious, making sure to stay near Jim, “I’m sorry, but what do you want us to do?” Penny asked and hearing that, Zarda looked to Jim.
“There’s no names, no identities, and I don’t think that Brooklyn is going to be happy with those two right now.” he said and hearing that, Desmond had an idea, “Then have them work on The Squadron.” he said, making Penny and Franklin look towards him, “Really?” The three and Zarda looked towards the General, “We can always use new members, Vanessa and Menace are rarely here.” he said.
The group were… unsure about them, they didn’t even know who Menace was, and the pair of them started to issue transfers for other divisions, suffice to say, none of them– “So then, will they join The Squadron? Or will they be sent somewhere else?” The General asked and hearing that, The Synthezoids looked towards each other, “I think that we’d like to be a part of The Squadron.” Penny told them.
Hearing that, the members of The Squadron smiled towards that, glad about the new members before Desmond offered his hand to Penny, “Welcome to The Squadron Supreme.” he said, the woman taking it and then he did the same for Franklin which made the man nod towards that, “I’m sure that we can make a few identities and then we–” Desmond started, “I can help.” Skymax interrupted.
“When I created my identity of Ian Wilson.” he told them, shifting and appearing like a caucasian man who grinned towards them, wearing a white button up with rolled up sleeves, a mess of hair and a grin that made his Skrull green eyes glimmer, The Synthezoids and the Squadron had been surprised that he have a persona, “I was planning to live like a human.” he explained to them.
Hearing that, the others had been surprised by that statement, not knowing how to describe that before they looked towards the Synthezoids, “Then Sk’ym’x, you;re in charge of their identities, since you seem to be an expert on it already.” he stated, making the Skrull smile towards that before he went and started to head away from them so that they could get started on their new lives.

Jim was helping get the two situated, the pair wanting to learn how to be human by him, and he was happy to help, “Alright then, how about–?” he started until Jim heard a knocking he answered, “Namor, what’s–?” “Penny Hammond, she has a power like you, and I want to–” “Jim? What’s going on?” Franklin asked, making Namor confused and Jim worried he might do something violent.
“Meet my brother, Franklin, The Human Fissure.” he said and hearing that, Jim saw Namor was surprised before Franklin demonstrated, twisting his hand and the nearby dust, sand and first coalesced into a fist around it, “I control Earth, Cyclone controls air and… Jim, controls Fire.” he said and hearing that, the Atlantean was confused, “No water?” he asked them, making Franklin shrug.
“Penny and Franklin are joining The Squadron Supreme.” Jim explained towards Namor who was smiling towards that, at least until Jim saw his state, “What happened to you?” he asked, making the Prince chuckle, “I fought a Shark Alien on an Alternate Earth with The Golden Agency.” he said and hearing that, the Synthezoid was surprised by that statement before they started to move inside.
He started to talk and as he did so, Penny came in and the moment that she did so, Penny smiled towards the sight, “I’m glad that you’re okay!” The woman said, going to hug him, “So did that Scarlet Centurion bring you back or did you have to fight them?” she asked, making Namor a bit confused by what was going on right now as Jim was making some more space for him to hear what was happening.
“So, what was it like on The Alternate Earth?” Penny asked and hearing that, the Altantean had been given a cup of coffee from the kitchen, “Well, the first thing that I saw was that there was a torn apart Atlantis that the monster Kekon had chewed up and spewed out before going to attack the others.” he said and hearing that, the three listened in with fascination towards that, excited to hear about another Earth.

Skymax, or Ian Wilson as he was called here, walked into the house and smiled, looking around towards everything, there was a few flowers that he had been cultivating, some books that were of an interest to him, a supply of sweets, and the key to what remained of his ship which he kept locked away and hidden within a basement of his own design so no humans could interfere with it.
Ian looked around, checking to see if there were any changes or such, seeing that there was nothing, he let Drutch out of his cage, the little thing smiling towards him, it appeared that whatever Doctor Stasis did to his mother, it made Drutch unable to change in size, he was the same as he was when he was born, but he was also invulnerable, and had quite the brain.
“Can we try tests?” Dutch asked, not even Desmond knew that he was able to speak, Sky’ym’x not trusting the general with much, including his adopted son, “Sure, which test should we try this time?” he asked, making Drutch excited as he went to put on his overalls and T–Shirt, “The copy test!” he shouted, making Ian chuckle towards that as he concentrated now.
This test was one of the most painful, it required him to split his thought patterns, his identity, everything that made him one person and then make him two, normally it would be impossible for anyone to do this, but thanks to the telepathy and his working with his mind, he was finally able to do it, feeling that there was something that felt like a tumor, or maybe a physical shadow, split off from him.
Opening up his eyes, the Skrull had seen that there was an amorphous blob that was starting to take his shape, beginning to take shape and then turn into his old Wartime form, The Jovian before he became someone else, “Hello there, me.” He said towards Ian who smiled back, “Okay, so lets try coming back together.” he told The Jovian who nodded as both began the attempt.
The duo had started to connect their minds and as they did so, the two of them felt as if a single mind, their original, had begun to take them and mold them together, the pair of them reunited as one, they meshed back together, “At least there’s a way to be two places at once.” Sk’ym’x said towards Drutch who smiled towards him widely, “Can I come with you?” he asked of The Skrull.
That made the man smile, “Of course, I was planning to take you anyways.” he said and hearing that, The creature had grinned towards him widely before he leapt up and hugged Sk’ym’x, the Super Skrull smiled towards his friend before taking a deep breath and then going to bring him to the basement there so that he could prepare his vessel once more and get ready for what he had planned.

Thompson had been looking towards the latest reports that were there before eventually he saw that there was something which made man cuss, the fact that there were two Synthezoids in The Squadron Supreme now and it made him annoyed, he wanted to go to Project Tomorrow and kill whoever let those two free, but thankful they had no memories of what happened there.
“How about Project Tundra?” he asked of the others and that made the scientist who was a liaison with Project Tomorrow, “We don’t think that Tundr would be safe, the Horton Cells required could result in them manipulating not just nearby ice and water, but also the water that makes up humans, they could end up murdering everyone that was in the area.” he said and hearing that, Thompson sighed.
“Goddammitt.” he muttered in anger, disliking the fact that he had to table that before going and starting to look towards the other jobs they had, “How about anything that we’re trying with Aix?” he asked and hearing that, the scientist sighed, “They’re keeping her in the base, far away where we can’t access.” he said before pulling up another file, “But we do have Project Moonbeam.” he said.
Hearing that, Thompson smirked, “So our scouts found one?” he asked, making the man smirk, “We had to journey into Canada, FAR into Canada, but we found two of them once we got past the Wendigos and other predators.” he said to Thompson who smiled, “Great, bag at least one.” he ordered of the man and hearing that, The man nodded while Coldshot wondered what was going on as he spied on them.

Aix and the others had been going through their files before she noticed that there was something that confused her, it was a file that was from The Howling Commandos that somehow got here, looking it over, she pulled it out and read the names there, most of them were fine, a few KIA, the enhanced leader, Captain America, was MIA, but there were two of them that made the alien pause, scanning them over.
“Director Burr, I have a question about two of The Howling Commandos, James Howlett and Victor Creed.” She said into his mind and hearing that, the man had been coming into her lab, “What do you wanna know about Wolverine and Sabretooth?” he asked, making the woman check the names before she went to place them in his hands, “I wanted to speak to one of them about their alterations.” She said.
Hearing that, the man sighed, “Ask one of The Squadron, I don’t want them to try and attack me because I’m a Burr.” he said and hearing that, the alien was confused before nodding, “I will contact them to see what they will be willing to tell me.” Aix said towards Burr who nodded, going to walk off, he checked the latest file so that he could make sure that nothing important got leaked.

The team walked into their territory, all of them had their rifles aimed up above and looking towards the trees and the brush, they started to scan until there was a rustling, “Open fire!” the man shouted and hearing that, they all complied, firing on each and every blade of grass or leaf that was there before they heard a yelp, making them stop and start to come in.
They started to approach, subtle as possible as they found what they were looking for, it was a small brunette woman, her pointed ears and fangs making them think her not human which was what they were looking for, “Check for claws.” the leader said and hearing that, they complied, one of them grabbing her hand and examining it, “We’ve got claws, Subject Native is secured.” he said.
The team went to wrap her up, making sure that he hands were well restrained before looking around, making sure that no others that were around there as they picked her up, “Let’s get this thing back to Mount Rainier.” he said, the Feral woman already starting to wake up so they started to try and keep her unconscious long enough for them to get her to the Foundry to join the team there.
