(Back at the hive)

The other groups Hornet Queen had sent out to retrieve Mystique, Firestar, and Tigra had returned. She finished re-writing the minds of them. She had also decided to just have female clones of Dr. Strange, Cap, and Punisher. After she got their DNA for cloning, she had them sent back to where to earth, and erased their memory about what had happened. Later she was waiting for Yellowjacket to finish creating the female clones of the 3 men, Maria walked into the room.

"M..my queen. Can.....can we talk. Th....there is...something i need to tell you." Maria said nervously, her face a deep shade of red.

"What is it?"

"You see your highness." Maria said trying not to look at Hornet Queen. Maria fell to her knees. "I can't hide it anymore. I have fallen in love with you my queen." She said as she as tears started to form. "I can't go on not knowing how you feel about me anymore. I need to know. I am sorry if I am acting weak right now, but....I can't hide it anymore. I love you, your highness. I need to know how you feel about me."

(At the SHIELD Hellicarrier)

"Come on!" Fury said. "We are not yet fully aware of everyone she has enslaved so far but here is who we do know of." Fury said and starting bringing up info on the people enslaved so far.

"When I had Maria infiltrating her hive, I had found out that at that point she had Elektra, Psylocke, Jubilee, She-Hulk, Red She-Hulk, Pepper Potts, Scarlet Witch, and Black Widow. Then when I was going to take Janet down, and that traitor Maria turned against me, and she willingly joined Janet."

He then brought up a security clip.

"From this footage at the Baxter Building, we can clearly see that she also has enslaved Valkyrie and Sif. When Janet was there, she took Susan, and there is no doubt that she has become one of Hornet Queen's slaves by now."

Reed was furious. He could not believe Johnny had gotten him to agree to a 'Dude Day' and leave Sue by herself.

"Also, Hank Pym is missing, and knowing his history with Janet, It is safe to assume she has enslaved him as well."

"So does anyone have an ideas of what what we should do about the Hornet Queen?"
