Completely enveloped by Reed's elongated body, the Hulk fought hard against the constriction. In his struggle, he lost balance and fell to the ground with a loud thud. Flexing muscles and using all the force he muster, the Hulk actually managed to stretch Reed out of shape a little as he pushed, but could not yet disentangle himself.
"LET! HULK! GO!"
Reed's face dangled in front of the Hulk, but in his rage, he could not recognize his friend. At first. Tossing his head back and forth in his struggle to get free, but then something in Reed's voice got through.

The Hulk stopped struggling and stared at Reed's face, teeth clenched, breathing heavy. But then something clicked, and the burning fire in the Hulk's eyes was slowly extinguished, showing the glint of recognition.
