After delivering the dead body of the Don and receiving the reward, Vi was back in her apartment. She also saw the numerous newspapers of her in her hulk form all over the place, people having mixed thoughts about her gamma counterpart.

As Vi plops on the couch, the news blares up with J. Jonah Jameson doing his usual, snarky and mean spirited rants.

J. Jonah Jameson: Another catastrophic extreme of events has hit our city of New York with this special bulletin! (Shows an imagery of Gray She hulk Vi) If you thought Spider-Man was bad, check out this She-goliath of terror! One of the dangerous modern criminals is killed by this Gray She hulk, while I'm not defending the Don Arron & his criminal scum empire, this She-hulk has no right to doing whatever she wants, what happens when this monster runs out of criminals to murder?! Will she come after the innocent people like myself?!

Vi: (in her mind; narrowed eyes) Tch. Innocent my ass.

J. Jonah Jameson: Or worse! She and Spider-Man would team up and cause more problems for our fair city! Someone needs to stop this She-hulk of gray and fast before chaos ensures at the hands of these menaces!

Vi throws the remote through the TV, breaking it. She cursed under her breath in annoyance at Jameson's crappy podcasts to make her look bad and she's seen how Spider-Man and Hulk were treated. The pink haired brawler would want nothing more than leave her apartment, march up to the Daily Bugle, rips Jameson's mustache off his face, feed it to him and give him a brutal beating but it took some self control to not do it as Vi was trying to not draw attention to herself.

Vi: I'll get a new TV later.

Vi got a text from Deadpool, bizarre emojis followed "found some recruits! Will meet up at your place, see you soon pinky!"

Vi shook her head with a light chuckle.

Vi: As annoying and crazy as he is, Wade sure comes through.

Vi then sees another text that said, hashtag: DPxVI 4-life!! Hearts, fists and bombs emoji.

Vi: (deadpan) And there's the annoyance...

At the Leader's hideout...

Jinx was seen in her personal workstation lab, tinkering with her inventory, she was not in the best of moods since her encounter with the hulk and his team. She had him, she had him and was ready to finish the Hulk once and for all but... it wasn't her mission to do so.

Jinx snarled with a left eye twitch as she heard the voices.

Congratulations, you screwed up again.

Another failed job.

Way to "Jinx" it!

Jinx: No, Shut up! Shut up! I didn't fail, it wasn't my mission to kill him yet! A mistake!

She clutches her head, seeing terrifying hallucinations of wailing souls and monsters of her once loved ones and tormenters.

The only mistake we see is YOU!

You couldn't even avenge your own father! It's no wonder your sister left you, you're a disappointment!

You're a freak!

You're a weakling!

Worthless!

You don't deserve the power you have!

You're a monster!

JINX!!!

Jinx was breathing rapidly with dilated, insane and angry eyes, looking up at the mirror and immediately punched a hole through it, shattering the mirror in the process. She started to chuckle eerily and crazily, not caring about the bleeding wound in her fist, it would heal. She then heard a voice behind her.
