Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Terrific Technology

[Michael Secret Base/Lab]

Sitting at one of the many work stations in his secret lair, Michael had an extreme look of concentration on his face.

Various tools, schematics, and circuitry laid out before him he worked tirelessly and with precision to complete the task he was currently engaged in.

That is to complete what he has decided to call his Terrific Technology.

Which at the moment included his very own super suit, his own version of the T-Mask, and his own version of the T-Spheres.

The last of which he was creating a prototype for right now.

"Okay, and now the final touches." Micheal said to himself. "And done." He said.

After he did Michael leaned back in his chair and let out a breathe he didn't even know he'd been holding in.

He also felt tension release from his body.

"Man, people who say science isn't tiring don't know what they're talking about." He muttered.

Micheal then stood up from his seat and lightly stretched before heading over to the fridge he had installed to get himself a bottled water to drink.

Finishing it he threw it away.

Right after he did he returned to work station and stared at the T-,Sphere.

He then put on some safety goggles a moment later, picked up a remote, and then took a few steps back. "ADAM begin recording now, also engage all safety countermeasures." He instructed his AI.

"I have done so." ADAM replied.

Hearing this Michael began his testing.

"Alright. T-Sphere prototype test number #1 commencing." He said.

Michael then pressed the red button on the remote in his hand.

A second after he did he saw his prototype T-Sphere begin to power up and he heard a low humming eminating from it.

"Power levels are stable and rising." ADAM informed Michael a few seconds after the T-Spheres activation.

Then a few seconds later ADAM spoke again.

"The T-Sphere is now at full power and its levels are holding." He spoke.

"Understood." Michael replied.

The pair continuing to monitor the power levels of the T-Sphere for five more minutes before Michael finally decided to power it down.

Breathing a sigh of relief that his invention didn't blow up in his face.

"Test #1 is complete. In five minutes we'll run test #2." He instructed ADAM.

For as a scientist Michael was going to walk before he ran with his Terrific Technology.

Meaning rigorous testing.

But that only made him excited.

For once the testing was complete the real fun could begin.

Though before Michael continued he decided to help himself by putting on some music.

"ADAM play Come and Get Your Love By Redbone." He said.

Michael then got back to work.

[Test #5]

"Power looks to be holding steady. Okay then, onto the next phase of testing." Micheal said.

***

[Test #10]

Watching as his T-Sphere flew uncontrollably through the air Michael waited for the moment it came toward them, and then caught it.

Finding himself dragged through the air until he could use the manual override and deactivate the sphere.

As he landed on the ground he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay. Flight systems need more fine tuning." He said.

***

[Test #36]

Hiding behind a barrier Michael watched as his T-Sphere generated uncontrolled bolts of electrical energy.

Until the T-Sphere began smoking before it stopped working all together.

When it did Michael peaked his head out from behind the barrier.

"It seems the T-Sphere internal circuitry wasn't insulated well enough for the electrical power generation systems." ADAM spoke. Do to his own analysis.

"Yeah, thanks for that ADAM. Compensate for it in the designs." He instructed.

[Test #50]

"Fly, fly, fly." Michael spoke to his T-Sphere. Hoping to use voice commands to activate it.

Only for the Sphere to remain where it was on the pedestal on the work station.

"Okay. Voice controls require further testing." Michael said.

***

[Test #62]

"Testing one, two, three." Micheal said.

Hearing his voice rebounded between his first and newly built second T-Sphere.

Telling him the communication system was functioning.

Leading him to smile.

[Test #69]

Spell circles surrounding his T-Sphere Michael was working to engrave magic into his creation.

For he had decided to take a page out Doctor Doom book.

Who thankfully didn't exist in this reality.

The same with the Fantastic Four.

Though that also meant the Future Foundation didn't exist.

'Hm, should I create my own version of the Future Foundation?' Michael thought.

Realizing he was getting off task.

So he focused back on the matter at hand.

His attempt to combine magic and technology, creating what he has already dubbed magitech.

As he finished casting magic on the T-Sphere Michael dissipated his spell circles.

He then tried using a small attack spell on the T-Sphere, only for the enchancements he placed on it to completely deflect his attack.

Telling him he has just taken his first steps towards creating magitech.

***

"Finally, it's complete." Michael happily spoke.

After three long months, and rigorous trial and error testing, he had completed the first item in his Terrific Technology arsenal.

A fully functioning T-Sphere.

So with that Michael decided it was time to move onto the next phase of his T-Sphere project.

Creating multiple units out of the Adamantium and Vibranium he had on hand.

Since he certainly wasn't going to use either rare metal in the sphere preliminary creation phase.

For he didn't have enough of either to replace any he might've lost.

That's why he did things this way.

So with that Michael, with ADAM assistance, quickly began producing Vibranium and Adamantium T-Spheres.

Which actually only took him a week to make.

Once this was done Michael created his super suit out of the same composite.

Leaving only one item currently on his to-do-list, his very own T-Mask.

Which was going to take some time, given that it involved nanotechnology.

Making the project all the more tantalizing to Michael scientific appetite.

Though before he began working on it ADAM reminded him of the upcoming quarterly board meeting he needed to attend.

"Oh right, it is that time now." Micheal mused.

"Yes, it is." ADAM reminded him.

"Alright then." Michael replied.

He then left his lab/base and headed home to rest and prepare for said meeting.

***

While Micheal was getting ready to deal with his company politics on almost the other side of the United States, in the state of Mississippi a young girl with brown, filled with distinctive white streaks was in her bedroom.

Doing some heavy kissing with a boy.

That is until black vein marks appeared on the boys body.

Leading the brown and white haired girl to break their kiss, and get a look of utter horror and shock on her face.

"What have I done?" The girl asked.

Her name being Anna Marie Carlyle.

But most people just call her Rogue.

[Insert Image of Anna Marie Carlyle/Rogue Here]

A/N: Yes people, one of Michael love Interests, Rogue has arrived on the scene.

Also her last name isn't made up. Carlyle is Rogue last name in the Ultimate Comics.

I just decided to use it here for my fanfic.

Anyway until next Chapter.
