Marvel: A New God’s Reign

<(Omniscient POV)>

"Do we really need to rob this place like a bunch of lowly thieves? I am a trained assassin, not a cat burglar... *Sigh* The things one has to do for love... and mind-blowing sex." Elizabeth Braddock, aka, Psylocke muttered a complaint as she stood on a high building in front of the warehouse where Kingpin had reportedly stored his illegal antiques and gold. 

"Stop acting like you don't enjoy raiding these warehouses. All of us here know how much of a sadist you are when it comes to dealing with gangs. Also, it's common knowledge that you requested Atem to let you keep a few of those antiques we stole in our last mission as a memento of our heists." Lorna Dane, aka, Polaris snorted at her shameless lie. 

"Hey, that is not true. I am not a sadist; I just don't like bullies... especially those who have made "daddy" his enemies." Psylocke defended herself with a mischievous smirk. "Kingpin is really unfortunate to have once Vanessa by killing off her parents all those years ago. Normally, Atem would have just freed the man from his miserable life to take over his criminal empire but now that Vanessa wants revenge against the crime lord, Atem won't shy away from making that man's life a living hell just to show how much he values her as his lover."

"Okay, both of you need to stop your banter. We are on a serious mission, not a casual stroll in the neighborhood. This is my first big mission and I NEED to excel in it with flying colors to win Atem's trust. No offense, but if you two continue to bicker with each other, that would become increasingly difficult." Wanda Maximoff, aka, Scarlet Witch interrupted their "conversation" while giving them both an annoyed look which silenced them. "Now tell me, what do you guys think? Should we do this stealthily or do we go in guns blazing?"

"Well, going by all the Hand ninjas hiding in the warehouse, lying in wait for us, it should be pretty clear that this is a trap. So, the question is do we walk into the trap knowingly or do we postpone the mission for now and come back when we are more prepared later." Lorna wondered aloud, giving all her companions a meaningful gaze, already knowing what her friends would choose. 

"Today is supposed to be Kingpin's last day on Earth, with our endeavors, as per Vanessa's desires aimed at bankrupting him before his imminent death. She wants to strip away every single bit of the New York crime lord's wealth and power before delivering the final blow. Hence, doing this mission today is pivotal if we are to realize this ambition," Elizabeth answered with a thoughtful nod. 

Of course, Atem could have used the New York police department or other federal organizations to seize the antiques and gold away from Kingpin's secret warehouses, but if any law enforcement or investigative agencies were the ones to discover this, then they would undoubtedly make sure to seize the majority of this wealth as government property despite how influential Atem was, something that Atem didn't want happening especially because of the rumored possible presence of "mystical" items among Kingpin's antique hoard. 

"So, I guess clashing with them head-on it is then." Wanda shrugged. 

"Hey, you guys do know that I am also here, right? For some reason, I feel like you guys are ignoring me. I am also a part of this team, you know." Pietro Maximoff, aka, Quick Silver in his silver jacket and silver-colored athletic clothing awkwardly raised his hand from the side, trying his best to prove himself relevant in the conversation.

"No, of course, we are not ignoring you. How can Lorna and I forget about our dear brother?" Wanda chuckled along with Lorna and Elizabeth while the group prepared to infiltrate the warehouse.

"Oh, it seems that I am just in time to see their performance. Lucky me, I'll get to grade them and give them my expert reviews." I muttered before activating my Rinnegan and focusing my gaze on Wanda, Pietro, Lorna, and Elizabeth making their way toward the warehouse. Elizabeth was supposed to take care of 

The people guarding the warehouse seemed to have already detected them... Wait, aren't those red clowns... Hand ninjas? Interesting, so that they are still operating within the country. Also, this bunch seemed to be even more skilled than the ones they sent to kill me. I am almost insulted... Well, whatever. I guess I'll completely wipe the organization out after this.

The moment Wanda, Lorna, and Elizabeth came near the warehouse, everyone that Kingpin had hired became alarmed and took a fighting stance after noticing their sudden appearance near the warehouse. "Look at that. Kingpin was right. His wealth was indeed in danger of being stolen by burglars." The woman among the guards guarding the place, whom I recognized as Typhoid Mary began to chuckle exaggeratedly while staring hungrily at Wanda. "I told you I was going to have fun tonight, didn't I? HAHAHA, I was right." 

"So, you are the thieves that were stupid enough to steal from the biggest crime lord of New York? A bunch of children and a... ninja rip-off. And to think, Fisk hired so many of us for you guys. Such a pathetic waste of money." A man wearing a spandex suit and a mask with a big bullseye mark on it mocked while sneering.

I have no idea who that man is but if I had to make an educated guess from his choice of costume, then I would say that he is Bullseye, one of Kingpin's most famous hired muscles and probably his favorite one too. He is supposed to be just an ordinary human without any sort of supernatural powers but him being a villain in the world of Marvel, he is not as ordinary as one would expect. Instead, he has peak human conditioning like most other heroes and villains in this universe while also being the deadliest marksman in the world. 

"You can fight whoever you want but I want the redhead. I feel like I am better suited to fight against her." Mary made her intentions clear in front of everyone before moving towards Wanda leaving both sides confused at her weird demeanor.

'I guess the inner psionic in her instinctively wanted to test her powers against the psionic abilities of the Scarlet Witch. 

"You are weird you know that, Mary," Bullseye stated as a matter of fact before advancing toward Elizabeth while the rest of the Hand ninjas circled around Lorna and Pietro.

"The sweet little Mary is not here anymore, darling. However, you can call me Bloody Mary." She snickered before telekinetically manipulating scrap metal close to her, forming a slightly bulky metallic armor around her with sharp edges sticking out of the various corners of the armor like needles. "Something seems missing from my new attire... Oh, of course, I am missing a gun." She giggled sadistically while she telekinetically controlled a dozen assault rifles to float around her, all of their muzzles aimed at Wanda. 

"Such a showoff," Bullseye muttered from his own corner as he took out his handgun and a couple of sharp darts from his belt. "You all were seriously unlucky to face us. Anyone else and you could have lived but unfortunately, we are not known for our mercy but for our efficiency and loyalty to our employer." He finished before throwing the first dart toward Psylocke, half expecting it to be enough to take care of the ninja assassin.

Conversely, the Hand ninjas had also quickly surrounded Pietro and Lorna, hoping to end them without much fanfare but again, they had no idea just who they were up against.
