When the dust had finally settled and the Hulk King & co had been brought to justice, there was just one mystery that remained unsolved: what had happened to the unused sample of Jennifer Walter's gamma-irradiated blood?
Well, amidst the chaos her good friend and paralegal Nikki Ramos had reached down and actually picked it up, placing the vial carefully into her pocket. She planned to give it back to Jen, knowing she'd find a way to destroy it safety; but the She-Hulk had already left with Daredevil, and the scene was now slowly emptying. As a result, Nikki just shrugged her shoulders and decided to wait until next time before handing it over.
Yet, as she spent a day or two at home she frequently found herself staring at the green fluid sloshing about the long, glass container. There was something alluring about it. All that power in every drop. An elixir that could change someone forever in the most profound way. When she caught herself thinking like this, however, her demeanour would change and she shook her head in disgust, putting the vial away again.
"No, it has to be destroyed," she'd quietly repeat like a chant.
Despite this noble mantra, she still found herself reaching for the green blood again just so she could stare at it once more, but kept swearing to herself that it was harmless curiosity on her part, and there wasn't anything more to it than that...
...until she, of course, witnessed Jennifer's mother being accidentally transformed into a Hulk herself, with both mother and daughter rampaging across San Fransisco. It was terrifying for Nikki to watch on televsion, and also incredibly exciting. They were seemingly unstoppable.
When she finally returned to the office after her short break, Nikki actually brought the vial in her suit pocket. She knew that Jen wasn't going to be working there anymore, so there was no reason to bring it along, but she couldn't help herself. However, she quickly became snowed under with all of the extra work she'd missed, and mostly from the cases relating to Mallory Book, the firm's very best lawyer. It was relentless, and by midday, Nikki was exhausted.
Looking at her watch and realizing that there was hours still to go, and this load would likely bleed into the coming days, she became a little depressed in herself. She wondered if there was a way to speed up the process and help her make short work of it all.
A wicked thought then popped into her head then, and a devilish smile creaked across her face. She, perhaps predictably, reached into her pocket and began to fondle the vial again, as if she were Bilbo Baggins caressing the One Ring. She pulled it out once more, yet, as she did so, more files were dropped down on the desk in front of her. Including some from Mallory herself aka "the face that never lost a case."
"Speaking of faces," she joked, "Why the long one?"
Nikki was startled and didn't respond at first, trying to catch hold of the small tower of files that was about to fall over onto the floor.
"Anyway," Mallory continued, "I need the files on the, eh, Jackson case. Do you have them?"
"It's there," said a flustered Nikki, pointing at a small stack of cream folders on the desk that she had just organised before placing the last one on top.
Mallory gave her a sarcastic smile and left for her office again, but as she lifted the stack of files, she cut her finger ever-so-slightly on an edge. She didn't let Nikki know though, not wanting to ever look weak, and returned back to her own desk. As she sat down, however, she instinctively placed the wounded finger into her mouth to stop the bleeding before shaking it around on the air in the hopes of drying it off. With her other hand she started opening the files.
Nikki, meanwhile, just got back to her own work, until realizing that she had misplaced the vial when Mallory had disturbed her. Panicked, she began throwing the files about and over her shoulder, desperate the find where the precious but dangerous item had gotten to. Yet, despite her furious hunt, there was no sign of it. Indeed, it wasn't even on the floor around the desk. A sinking feeling took hold then, and she stared down the busy hallway. It didn't take long before she pulled herself up from her seat and ran to Mallory's office.
But she would be too late.
As Mallory opened the third folder she noticed a long, green container and was left utterly bewildered. Had it come from Nikki? Was it a sample of a new perfume that she was trying out? She always wore the best. Without much more throught, she opened the top and innocently placed her finger with the paper cut inside so she could pull out a drop and smell it.
And it only took a single drop.
When Nikki finally threw the door open, she could see her colleague Mallory staring in disbelief at her finger and hand. The veins started to turn green, and said action started to travel up her arm, too. The usually cool-as-ice lawyer was hyperventilating now. In truth, there was nothing Nikki or anyone else could do. Mallory was about to become a hulk before their very eyes.
Even so, Nikki ran out to the main part of the office in an attempt to warn those close by to flee, but they, in turn, just laughed. It wasn't until they heard a deep, guttural roar coming from Mallory's office that they started to heed her advice. Indeed, as they ran, they risked a brief look over their shoulders and, through the glass of her office, could now see the company's best legal professional growing larger and larger, and greener and greener. Her hair started to grow out and became wild, and as she raised her increasingly bulging arms her stylish black and white checkered dress was increasingly becoming no more.
Nikki chose to remain, nervously deciding to confront her as this was all her fault. When the transformation was complete, she witnessed the new hyper-strong jade giant version of Mallory Book smash through the glass and crash through the rest of the now mostly empty office of the firm. Mallory herself was out of control for a moment, and, on some level, she liked it. Always having to be disciplined and bottled up in the office, she now decided to let loose on it.
Nikki was the first victim, and after being cut by some of the broken glass, she found herself hoisted up by the lapel of her suit jacket and easily lifted her off the ground by the gigantic Mallory.
"What have you done?!" she screamed in Nikki's face. "I feel...different."
"I-I g-get that!" replied a terrified Nikki. "But I can help you. You've become a hulk. So let me ring Jen, she can h-help-"
"I don't need any help now!" she cried back with a smile. She stared down and was overwhelmed by her new body. Nikki was shocked that unlike other hulks she wasn't completely overcome with rage. No, this "Mallory-Hulk" was more confident and sensual. She came to terms with the change much quicker than others, and actually seemed to like being a hulk.
"This will make things even easier for me now," she replied while flexing her other arm. "With this awesome power no one can stop me."
"T-that's just what I thought," Nikki responded as Mallory suddenly let her fall to the floor.
"So, you wanted to transform yourself instead, eh?" Mallory continued, flexing both biceps and kissing their respective peaks. "Well, hard luck I guess."
As she was admiring herself, moving her fingers up the middle of her abs and cupping her enlarged breasts amidst her ripped dress, Nikki took the chance to run into the office. She noticed the small cuts from the glass and thought if she could just find the rest of the blood and mix it into her open wounds, she could even the odds.
Mallory, however, snapped out of her reverie of self-exploration, and grunted. Getting wind of what her paralegal Nikki was up to, she quickly turned her huge muscular body and used her mighty hands to smash through the remaining thick wall as if it were nothing; but there was no sign of Nikki initially. So Mallory stomped over to the table and reached her long arm over, grabbing the hiding Nikki by the collar this time.
"Oh no you don't! I'm your boss and I didn't say you could become powerful like me!" declared Mallory.
But, as she slowly turned Nikki around to face her, she noticed her eyes had already turned green, and a small smirk suddenly appeared on her face.
"I'm afraid," started Nikki, "The vial spilled onto the floor, but there was just enough left-"
"Enough for what?!"
Nikki's body started to shudder then and her legs started to extend until she was no longer dangling above the ground. Then her head and shoulders rose upwards until she was the same height as Mallory. Then her body grew outwards in every direction, tearing her office suit to pieces. Mallory-Hulk watched on in amazement, but also a little envy. She had gotten to live out Nikki's fantasy, but now it was Nikki's turn herself, and she somehow seemed to be enjoying it even more.
The pain was quickly replaced with pleasure, and Nikki began moaning and then cackling at the very idea of becoming hulkish. She loved the idea of being bigger, hotter, faster, stronger and even more productive at work. She was becoming green and gorgeous now, too. When her transformation was done, she was a similar size and shape to Mallory. Almost immediately she, too, started to admire and explore her body before violently pushing her arms forward and pushing the unexpectant Mallory back out into the office floor.
"What was it that you said before?!" cried Nikki in a deeper voice, stomping towards her. "That you're the boss? Haha, let's see about that."
Mallory smiled upon hearing the challenge being laid down and threw an uppercut that shot Nikki straight through the ceiling of the next three floors. When she finally stopped ascending she laughed at how indestructible she had become.
"Being a hulk is awesome! Why did Jen worry so much about it?"
As she wondered this allowed, the mighty Mallory Book exploded through the floor and finally joined her. A massive fist fight ensued which nearly threatened to topple the building from within; both smashing through floor after floor, oblivious to the chaos they were causing and the people running for their lives.
Eventually, they both crashed through to the top floor and right in front of one of the partners of Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg & Holliway who was gobsmacked at what he saw.
"W-What are you two doing?!" he asked furiously. "I heard there a serious commotion going on downstairs but I couldn't have imagined in my wildest dreams that it would be you two."
Mallory tried to plead with him then but there was no point. Holliway merely waved away the huge green woman, walked round his desk, and then starred down the enourmous hole they had made.
"Do you know how much this will cost?" he asked. "No amount of overtime will ever make up for it. There's only one thing for it: you're both fired."
As soon as he said that, the two newest she-hulks stared at each other coldly and, without a word, moved in on him. They each grabbed him then and picked him off the floor.
"You can't do this!" he said. "I'm the boss!"
As he said this, they moved him slowly across the room until he floated above the hole they had made previously in the floor and threatened to drop him down the long shaft.
"If you don't make us the bosses of this firm..." started Mallory. "Make us partners..."
"...we're going to let go," Nikki finished.
He hesitated for a moment before finally accepting their terms, and, when they let him drop, he scurried out on all fours leaving the two green women inside of his office alone.
They then started to admire each other's body.
"We're different hulks to the others, eh?" said Mallory.
"Yeah, more horny than angry," Nikki joked. "I'm going to have a lot of fun with a lot of different people like this. It opens up infinity possibilities! But first thing's first..."
"What?" asked Mallory.
"Duh, we re-instating Jen! Our first duty as the new bosses is to give her her old job back, and a raise for good measure, because if there's anything better than two she-hulks, it's three!"
"I like that," replied the Mallory-Hulk. "In fact, Mallory, Ramos, and Walters," would make a good new name for our firm."
"Yeah, except it should be Ramos, Mallory, and Walters," replied Nikki-Hulk. "You got the names mixed up, silly."
With a single punch Mallory sent Nikki through the window of the office then, and she fell safely down onto a park car beneath. When Nikki looked up again she could see a raging Mallory falling down towards her, fists raised. Nikki smiled, knowing that a new fight was about to break out between the two, and they would enjoy every moment of it.
