Classroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman standing in front of the class was not Ms. Juliet. Nor was she Mystique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent's Hydro-Kinesis scanned her biology. It was alien.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skrull? Or D'Bari?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The D'Bari (from Dark Phoenix) could shapeshift, but they were tree-people and mostly extinct. The timeline didn't match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had to be a Skrull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent recalled the plot of Secret Invasion. Nick Fury had been harboring Skrull refugees on Earth since the 90s. They were his secret spy network.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They copy memories, too,\" Vincent thought, disgusted. \"Nick Fury, you old fox. You sent an alien to spy on me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hated Skrulls. Invaders masquerading as humans, replacing people... it was a violation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The cold front from the Atlantic is coming early for you, Fury,\" Vincent muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Skrull harmed the real Ms. Juliet, Vincent would wipe their entire species off the planet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Vincent, please come to my office,\" Ms. Juliet called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gwen paused, looking back with concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take my car keys,\" Vincent whispered, leaning close to her ear. \"Wait for me in my bed tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gwen blushed furiously, snatching the keys. \"I'm not waiting for you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stormed off, but Vincent knew she would be there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teacher's Office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ms. Juliet smiled warmly. \"Vincent, have you decided on a university? I can write you a recommendation letter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a perfect act. But Vincent knew better. The real Juliet was a bit haughty; she wouldn't be this sisterly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent sat down, putting his feet on her desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is the real Ms. Juliet safe?\" he asked bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Vincent! Put your feet down! What are you talking about?\" The Skrull feigned outrage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I hate being threatened,\" Vincent said, his voice dropping an octave. \"And I hate spies. Reveal your true face, alien.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frost began to creep up the walls. The temperature in the office plummeted to freezing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Skrull started sweating. The pressure was immense. The Ice Demon's aura was suffocating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ms. Juliet's skin rippled and turned green. A male Skrull—Talos—sat in the chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is she?\" Vincent demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ring, ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talos's phone rang. He answered it, trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nick... I'm blown.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How?\" Fury's voice was calm but tight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He sees through the disguise. My biology... he can sense it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury cursed silently. His ace in the hole had failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Put him on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talos handed the phone to Vincent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Hall,\" Fury began. \"This is a misunderstanding. Talos meant no harm. He's a refugee I'm protecting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Protecting invaders?\" Vincent sneered. \"You play a dangerous game, Fury. Sleeping with tigers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We are not alone in the universe,\" Fury argued. \"We need allies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you think disgusting shape-shifters are allies?\" Vincent laughed coldly. \"Here's the deal. Talos lives if you pay the price. If not, I wipe out every Skrull on Earth. And trust me, I can find them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury went silent. He knew Vincent wasn't bluffing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oscorp,\" Vincent said. \"I want the names of every shareholder. And I want their dirty laundry. Every crime, every affair, every bribe. I want enough blackmail to make them sell their shares for pennies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oscorp?\" Fury was surprised. \"Fine. Consider it done. But let Talos go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One more thing,\" Vincent added. \"Tell your Skrulls to stay in their lane. If I see another green face in my life, I'm calling down an Ice Age.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent flicked a drop of water onto Talos's forehead. It sank into his skin, forming a magical rune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's a tracking mark. I can find you anywhere,\" Vincent warned. \"Now get out. And bring Ms. Juliet back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talos scrambled out of the office, terrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subway Ride Home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent took the subway, blending in with the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury would deliver the blackmail material. With that, taking over Oscorp would be child's play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought about Peter Parker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new Peter was cold. Calculating. A killer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why is Connors covering for him?\" Vincent wondered. \"Is Peter a pawn? Or a partner?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking over Oscorp would give him the answers. He would control the resources they needed for their \"God Gene\" project.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent's Apartment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vincent walked in to the smell of lemon sea bass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gwen was cooking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tracy's recipe,\" Vincent smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SHIELD HQ.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nick Fury stared at his old pager. The Captain Marvel pager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't press it. Not yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talos called back. \"I'm safe. But he marked me. He said he'll kill us all if we cross him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We'll get you the Oscorp files,\" Fury sighed. \"Stay low, Talos.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury rubbed his temple. The Ice Demon was becoming a major player. And now he wanted a corporate empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oscorp... what is he planning?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Get The FULL NOVEL at Once!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Get 40% OFF for limited time only.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>@patreon.com\u002FAuthorizz\u002Fshop\u003C\u002Fp>",787,"2026-06-06T16:16:52.860Z",1,"novelbin.me","6b1269d695dc6c685cab485792e105b7d4a0c5f262df6ac8f089a75c1ac02ed5","marvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-chapter-59","marvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-chapter-57",116,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-starting-with-the-ice-ice-fruit-cover.jpg"]
