*Boom!*
The heavy isolation chamber crashed to the ground...
Under relentless hammering, the reinforced transparent walls shattered beneath fists like iron mallets. Emil Blonsky, with his muscles swollen and bulging like mountain ranges, strode out from within.
The maximum dose injection trial had transformed the once-compact soldier into a towering behemoth. His body radiated explosive and terrifying power.
However, the agonizing process had left his mental state unstable... his entire being now carried the aggression and brutality of a wild beast.
This was the serum's side effect. The extreme pain during the procedure amplified the subject's deepest emotions, exactly what Dr. Erskine, creator of the original Super-Soldier Serum, had described: "Good becomes better; bad becomes worse..."
Dr. Connors' modified formula had initially eliminated these side effects. By reducing dosage concentrations, it stabilized the subject's psyche, preventing dark personality shifts. But Blonsky had undergone the full two-stage trial, leaving him in a volatile, rage-fueled state.
*Crash!*
With no outlet for his fury, Blonsky kicked the one-ton isolation chamber like a discarded soda can. The alloy hull crumpled inward, stamped with the deep impression of his boot.
"Excellent enhancement. A perfected Super Soldier." Sean observed the roaring Blonsky from above, a satisfied smile curling his lips, "Release the Juggernaut. Let's see who's stronger... mutant or Super Soldier."
Dr. Connors nodded, then unlocked the lower-level steel gates.
A mountainous figure stormed out like a freight train... It was the Juggernaut...
He was clad in his signature crimson battle-suit, with his face hidden behind a thick iron helmet, only his eyes and snarling mouth were visible.
Cain Marko, the unstoppable force of the Brotherhood, stood nearly ten feet tall... He was a colossus of raw power.
Captured when Sean dismantled the Brotherhood, the Juggernaut had been imprisoned in Umbrella's high-security facility, guarded by a talking gorilla. Though unharmed, his freedom had been stripped away. Now however, he could finally stretch his limbs...
"You used to be a shrimp. Didn't know Super Soldiers came with a height boost," the Juggernaut rumbled, unimpressed by the hulking soldier before him.
Blonsky's eyes burned crimson as he fought to control his surging rage. The massive mutant before him was like a red flag to a bull... The sight of him ignited the fury simmering in his veins.
Yellow bone-like plating emerged across his skin, with jagged spikes erupting along his spine. He was no longer just a man... he was a monster... He was the Abomination...
With muscles coiling like steel springs, Blonsky shot forward like a bullet, crossing hundreds of feet in an instant.
His fist lashed out...
*Wham!*
"Tch. Too slo– UGH!" The Juggernaut barely dodged the first strike before a devastating knee slammed into his gut.
Even his nigh-invulnerable body convulsed from the impact. Blonsky roared with laughter, hammering his opponent to the ground with fists like piledrivers.
"Those punches feel like tickles. You some kinda sissy?" The Juggernaut spat dirt as he rose like an angered titan.
His tree-trunk like arms bulged as he locked onto his foe, "Let me show you real power!"
Blonsky's chest heaved like bellows as thunderous breaths echoed. He dragged a finger across his throat, and his face twisted into a bloodthirsty grin.
The Juggernaut charged...
The ground quaked as the unstoppable force barreled forward like a runaway train of pure destruction.
Blonsky stood his ground and roared, "There's a beast inside me! Its name is ABOMINATION!"
*BOOOM!*
The two titans collided.
Blonsky bent low, bracing against the Juggernaut's momentum. Veins throbbed like cables beneath his skin as he strained against the 1 900-pound behemoth. The reinforced floor cratered under their struggle.
A shockwave of sound erupted, visible ripples distorting the air.
*ROARRRR!*
Blonsky heaved, his muscles screaming, as he lifted the Juggernaut overhead before slamming him down in a brutal suplex!
Above, Sean and Dr. Connors observed the spectacle and analyzed the combat data.
So far, the Abomination dominated. Blonsky's military precision and sharpening focus outmaneuvered the Juggernaut's brute strength...
"I'll rip your head off!" The Juggernaut roared, stampeding like an enraged bull.
The battle escalated.
Dust clouds erupted with each earth-shaking step.
Blonsky dodged effortlessly. Despite his bulk, his movements remained fluid... He had a predator's grace. His fists became blurs, each strike cracking the air like gunshots.
The Juggernaut tanked the onslaught, retaliating with hammer-blows that could flatten tanks.
Flesh met flesh.
Bone met bone.
Two monsters brawled like beasts in a deathmatch... Within seconds, dozens of collisions erupted... fists pounded, and bodies slammed.
The Juggernaut absorbed most hits, but occasionally bulldozed through the barrage to land crushing counters.
*CRUNCH!*
Blonsky's head snapped back from an uppercut, blood trickling from his lip.
The Juggernaut fared no better... his crimson suit hung in tatters, and bruises mottled his skin.
"Magnificent," Sean remarked.
Blonsky's performance exceeded expectations. His stats hadn't peaked yet... there was room to grow. Soon, he'd be unleashed upon the Hulk.
A faint beep sounded from the Juggernaut's shock-collar. He glanced up, meeting Sean's infuriating smirk. Part of him longed to smash that face in, but an instinctive dread stayed his hand.
With a grunt, he retreated...
Panting, Blonsky's fury ebbed, and clarity returned. He grinned in satisfaction. such worthy opponents were rare.
As the dust settled, Sean descended to the platform...
"How do you feel?" he asked, locking eyes with the defiant soldier.
"Alive! Like I've been reborn– no, stronger than my prime!" Blonsky laughed, exhilaration coursing through him. Trusting this young man had been the right choice.
"Good." Sean's gaze darkened, "This was a transaction. Before reaping rewards, one must learn to give."
*SLAM!*
A hand clamped around Blonsky's throat, lifting him effortlessly. The Abomination strained to break free, however, even with his every muscle bulging, it was all useless against Sean's grip.
"Remember this feeling. Never forget it." Sean spoke calmly.
The beast within Blonsky quailed before those piercing eyes. His rage dimmed, and was replaced by reluctant submission.
In that moment, he sensed it... the terrifying energy radiating from Sean. An unassailable and unbreakable golden aura that was as blinding as the sun enveloped him..
The Abomination instinctively bowed his head...
