The music continued to blare through the mall drawing everyone's attention…
"Guess who's back, back again, Shady's back, tell a friend."
…and while everyone was distracted it happened.
"Guess who's back"
*Thwip*
A round red ball stuck to the floor in the middle of a pack of Hydra goons. The new noise drew attention as a few looked over.
"Guess who's back"
*Thwip*
Shocker suddenly felt something stick to his back and pull him away while no one was looking.
*Thwack*
And then he knew no more.
"Guess who's back"
*Thwip*
Scorpion looked back in shock and denial as he saw his stinger get tapered to the floor, before he could yell out though, *Thwip*, something else covered his mouth and hit with enough force that it flung his head back.
The whiplash was too much for the super villain as he was knocked out before he even hit the ground. Rogue looked in shock as her opponent was taken out in a second, Iron Man too busy trying to fix his systems.
"Guess who's back"
*Thwip*
Though everyone else had been distracted, Kraven knew better than to take his eyes off a predator. Laura had already rushed in while the others were distracted and they were both trading blows again. With his speed and strength plus experience Kraven was just keeping ahead of Laura's natural agility.
But that all changed when a web line caught his knife hand. Shocked and disrupted, he couldn't stop Laura's attack and grunted in pain as her blades tore right into his shoulder, his Kevlar weaved jacket doing squat to protect him.
But he recovered fast, switching the knife to his other hand while elbowing Laura in the face, before cutting the offending line, eyes snapping up searching for the Ultimate prey. But that was his final mistake, as Laura's healing worked overtime.
As he was distracted he didn't see the fist coming for his face until it was too late. Thankfully Laura had retracted her claws at the last second as the metal coated fist slammed into his head, knocking him out instantly.
"Guess who's back"
*Thwip*
A barrage of webs rained down on Mysterio's position missing both Jean and Felicia, the former looking in shock, while Felicia just smirked, 'he finally got here'.
"Guess who's back"
*Thwip*
The finale line raced towards Electro as he noticed his downed comrades. "Spider!" Releasing a blast of electricity outwards, Max Dillion was shocked as the web didn't disintegrate upon touching his lightning and could only watch as the line connected to his chest.
Amping the power up, he sent electricity down the line as his eyes locked onto the quickly approaching red blur. Grounding his feet at the strong pull he gnashed his teeth in anger. "Die Bug!" Everyone finally caught sight of 'him' as he flew towards Electro, his electric shock doing nothing as it seemed to get absorbed by his suit.
Two feet planted firmly into Electro's stomach as he was sent flying back into the ground, creating a few cracks as the figure sprung board off his body doing a small flip in the air before landing on one of the struts above.
Electro let out a small groan as he felt his consciousness start to leave him. But no one cared as their eyes traveled up the still connected web line leading off his body.
"Guess who's back"
*Boom*
The speakers stopped abruptly as the red ball from the start exploded in a shower of webs, all the close Hydra members were instantly covered in webs and blow back. Some of the lucky ones were knocked out instantly, while the rest found themselves stuck to the floor or anything else they happened to hit before then.
Some struggled helplessly, but none could escape the concrete like webbing. Everyone's eyes slowly rose following the web lines to the balcony looking above them. Crouched on the second floor railing, his head cocked to the side in amusement was none other than Spider-man himself.
The Grimm Reaper frowned as he spotted his target, he wasn't supposed to be this tough, even without the Avengers he was starting to think they may not have been able to capture the arachnid. Scratch that, looking around at the already downed Super Villain's that thought was more fact.
Unlike him though the Avengers were all smiles as they took in the image of New York's hero, this was the first time any of them, except Felicia, had seen Spider Man and after what he just pulled off in so few seconds, sufficient to say they were impressed.
All those still standing, which only included the Avengers, The Grimm reaper and a small few of the Hydra agents noticed the difference from his old suit instantly, the silver spider in the middle along with the sleek and metallic look giving away the new threads. Finally with everyone looking his way, Peter raised his hands in greeting.
"Hello BOYS! I'mmmmmm Baaaaaack." Of course his Villains didn't reply as all of them were knocked out, no one else said a word as the few hydra agents not webbed up held their guns towards their new target.
Tension filled the air as the Grimm reaper started to look for ways out, the fight was lost today, but he couldn't be captured, especially not by the Avengers.
Peter rolled his eyes under the mask as he saw the silent crowd. "Seriously? No one got the reference?" A little snort of laughter left Steve at the comical situation that the Avengers suddenly found themselves in. He had also recently watched the movie, he liked the action and message that was portrayed.
"Aha!" Peter pointed to the symbol of America. "At least the beacon of independence himself understands! Brings a tear to the eye it does." Wiping away a fake tear over the mask Peter finally stood to his full height and looked at all those gathered.
'Still seeing that no one is making a move, I guess it's up to this guy' "Well I don't want to be hit for copy right so I guess I'll have to stop the music there, but thanks for the music DJ!" Shooting a finger gun towards Tony he swan dived off the second floor towards the remaining goons, while Tony was cursing inside his suit trying to free his systems once again.
"Bloody son of a…"
The battle started up again as the Hydra agents fired at their primary target, all bullets being dodged, somehow mid-air. Or rather they were just really bad shots. *Ping* 'At least one of them has aim.'
It didn't matter though as all the kinetic energy of the bullet was absorbed by his new suit as he fell. Taking no damage at all, some of the Agents that noticed this fact stood back in fear, knowing a losing battle when they saw one.
It was too late the Avengers shot back into action as they started to take down the rest of Hydra quickly. Grim Reaper tried to back off, but was caught between a rock and a hard place, when he turned around.
Rogue and Jean flew in the air, their eyes shooting fire after being interrupted in their mall shopping as well as him trying to capture and experiment on them, Felicia on the ground below them, while Captain America and Laura, who dragged and then threw Kraven's unconscious body on the ground, were in front of him.
He just knew this was going to hurt. But he would go down swinging. Arming his scythe he rushed back towards Captain America, not wanting to take his chances with the super powered women behind him.
30 seconds later the final Hydra goon got clotheslined to the ground as the battle wrapped up. Dusting his hands off in mock tiredness, Peter grew a small smirk underneath his mask as Natasha silently walked beside him.
She threw him a small brow raise at his finishing move but said nothing and turned to the final bout between the Grimm reaper and Steve. With one final shield bash to the face, the Hydra commander was knocked out.
Peter just heard the sound of Clint landing a bit away from them, having dropped down from his perch as they moved over to the others. *Thwip* With a quick flick of the wrist he wouldn't be going anywhere soon.
Giving a small appreciative nod Steve went to greet the hero of New York. Both men's eyes locked on each other, or rather Steve's eyes locked onto Spider Man's mask as they sized each other up for a short second.
What peter didn't see in the background was Laura's tilt of the head as she narrowed her eyes, her nose twitched a familiar smell making itself known. Furrowing her brows she sent a side glance towards Felicia who she could see had a dazzling smile on, something she only showed to…
Just reaching the ground themselves, both Jean and Rogue went to meet up with the avengers. Though they had a rocky start, well mainly Jean when they met, they were both super hero teams working to save people.
Jean's own eyes flashed red for a second as she felt the compulsion to read Spider-Man's mind. It was the same compulsion which got her into trouble before, but once again she couldn't stop herself as she reached out.
It came as a shock to her though when she couldn't feel anything, once again something was blocking her. She mentally added Spider man to the small list of people that had somehow found a way to block telepathy. She had thought only Peter had cracked that.
Finally reaching each other Captain America stuck his hand out as a small smile came to his lips. "It is nice to finally meet you Spider-Man. I've heard good things about your work." Peter stuck his own right back and they clasped hands strongly.
"Same here Cap, nice to meet a living legend."
*Hmph*
Felicia snorted from the side. "Some would also call you a living legend Spidey." Peter shook his head in amusement with his own smirk. "I didn't forget about you either cat." She flashed a twinkling smile back.
Before she could say anything else though the tell-tale sign of motors whirling filled the air as Tony dropped from the sky right next to Spider-Man and gripped his shoulders. "How did you do it?! How the hell did you get into my system again!!!"
Tony almost sounded desperate as he shook his shoulders back and forth. From the corner of his eye Peter could just see the twitch of Natasha's face as she held back a smile and he thought to himself.
'How am I going to make this even funnier.'
Ahem.....
"SO, JJJ won't let me be
Or let me be me, so let me see
They try to shut me down in NYC
But it feels so empty, without me!"
I hope I didn't make the fighting climactic, but really Spidey has been fighting these guys for years, he knows all their tricks. He took them by surprise and finally his suit is pretty damn OP. With Mysterio already sort of down, it was an easy and quick clean up.
Either way hope you guys enjoyed the chapter.
Zevren out!
