Chapter 10: Harlem Mayhem and a Prankster's Dilemma
The news from Harlem was grim. Emil Blonsky, now a grotesque, bone-spiked monstrosity known as the Abomination, was tearing through the city. Buildings crumbled, cars flew, and the collective scream of a terrified populace echoed through the airwaves. Bruce Banner, finally pushed too far, had transformed into the Hulk, and the two giants were locked in a brutal, destructive dance.
May watched the reports, her face pale. "Oh, Adam, this is terrible! All those people… the destruction…"
Adam squeezed her hand. "I know, May. It's… a lot. But the big green guy's on our side, mostly. And I'm going to do what I can to make sure it doesn't get too out of hand."
"This is where it gets tricky," Adam thought, his mind racing. "I need to help Hulk, minimize civilian casualties, and ensure Blonsky gets his butt kicked, but I can't stop the fight entirely. It's a crucial character beat for Bruce. And for Tony, later. So, subtle chaos it is."
[DAILY WISH DAYS ACCUMULATION: +1]
Suddenly, a loud CRASH! from the TV. A piece of falling debris, a massive chunk of concrete, was hurtling towards a group of fleeing civilians.
[DANGER DETECTED FOR HOST! INITIATING RANDOMIZED LIFE-SAVING PROTOCOL.]
Before Adam could even react, his hand, holding his remote, slipped. The remote flew from his grasp, arcing through the air, and landed with a soft thwack directly onto a stack of pillows, which had inexplicably appeared on the floor beside him. He stumbled forward, narrowly avoiding a collision with the coffee table, and landed face-first into a giant pile of overturned garbage cans that had materialized out of thin air. He emerged, covered in old coffee grounds and a discarded banana peel, looking utterly ridiculous.
[HOST SAVED! CURRENT STATUS: ACCIDENTALLY FELL INTO A PILE OF OVERTURNED GARBAGE CANS, UNHARMED. COST: 30 WISH DAYS.]
Adam spat out a piece of lint. "Seriously, System? Garbage cans? You're really leaning into the 'humiliating' aspect of 'funny save,' aren't you?" He sighed, dusting himself off, as the civilians on screen, having inexplicably swerved to avoid the falling debris (which had also seemingly bounced off a conveniently placed street vendor's cart), ran to safety.
He refocused. Hulk was grappling with Abomination, who was about to deliver a devastating kick.
"Let's give him a little… cramp."
[WISH GRANTED: ABOMINATION'S LEFT LEG MOMENTARILY CRAMPS UP. COST: 80 WISH DAYS.]
Abomination's kick, mid-swing, suddenly faltered. A pained groan escaped the monster, and his leg buckled, sending him off-balance. Hulk, seizing the advantage, delivered a thunderous punch.
"What was that?! My leg! It seized!" Abomination roared, flailing.
Adam grinned. "Just a little muscle spasm, big fella. Happens to the best of us."
The battle raged. Hulk, for all his raw power, was struggling against Blonsky's sheer brutality.
"Time for a little boost, big guy. You've earned it."
[WISH GRANTED: HULK EXPERIENCES TEMPORARY STRENGTH SURGE. COST: 60 WISH DAYS.]
Hulk, who had been pushed back, suddenly roared, a visible surge of green energy rippling through his form. His eyes glowed brighter, and he slammed his fists together, creating a shockwave that sent Abomination reeling. The tide of the battle began to turn.
Finally, with a series of earth-shattering blows, Hulk defeated Abomination, leaving him a broken, whimpering mess. The destruction was immense, but the threat was neutralized. Bruce Banner, exhausted, melted back into the shadows, disappearing once more.
May let out a shaky breath. "It's over. Thank goodness."
Adam nodded, pulling her close. "Yeah, May. It's over. For now." He checked his System.
[MISSION COMPLETE: BRUCE BANNER AVOIDED PREMATURE CAPTURE. REWARD: 600 WISH DAYS ADDED TO WISH BANK.]
His wish bank was looking very healthy indeed. He had navigated the chaos, kept May safe, and subtly guided a major MCU event, all while maintaining his signature brand of sarcastic, chaotic intervention.
"Well, that was a ride," he thought, looking out the window at the distant, smoking skyline. "Harlem's going to need a lot of duct tape. And I'm going to need a long shower. And maybe a new banana peel."
