章 51: Chapter 51

I grabbed him and pulled him out. I was right, the shattered glass had cut his cheek. I looked him over and growled, "who the hell payed you?"

"I-I don't know what you mean!"

"You're not smart enough to steal tech like this, let alone use it. Who. Payed. YOU?!"

"I-I don't know! I swear!" the man cried out.

"You see this?" I pointed at the sewer cover now bent in half and the shattered Rhino armour, "that glass is supposed to handle a missile fire. I broke it and a bent sewer cower in half while doing so. What do you think I can do to you if I tried?"

"I don't know! Please don't hurt me! I didn't' do anything!"

"You didn't do anything?!" I roared turning him around, "look at what you did! Look at the people you hurt!"

A block of the city roads were destroyed. Car flipped over, people hurt, I wanted to help, but this man came first.

"I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean-"

"I'm giving you one chance, tell me everything, or I will make sure that every person here who you hurt will get a pound of your flesh to hang on their wall. And if I run out I'll use your bones."

"H-his name was Gentle, that's all I know! He told me his client wanted to hire me and my guys to steal a few things! He gave me everything! Cash, the truck, everything! He's the guy you want!"

I narrowed my eyes, "who hired him?"

"He didn't say! He just told me the guy was powerful and smart! He got us things we have never even seen before! Tech so advanced it was like we were dealing with alien shit!"

I narrowed my eyes, "where is it now?"

"In out hideout! I swear that's all I know! Please don't hurt me!"

I growled, "give me a location," he blabbered it out. I grabbed him by the collar and threw him into the air. I waited until the last moment to catch him with my webbing and strick him up like a fly caught in a spider's web.

I quickly got of the Rhino armour and ran to the injured people.

"It hurts!" a man pinned under a car cried out as people tried to lift it off him.

"Here let me," I walked up to them and grabbed the car and lifted with my legs, "pull him out! Quick!"

"Grab him!" Someone said as the people pulled the pinned man out.

I dropped the car with a huff, the man said his thanks, but I didn't respond, already on my way to another crisis.

A car had been flipped over and set on fire. It looked like it was about to explode and people couldn't get near it to save the unconscious people trapped inside. I quickly threw my webs onto the flame suffocating it. I then grabbed the car doors and ripped it off it's hinges, grabbing the mother and son and pulling them to safety.

It was longer to clean up the mess Rhino made than to actually stop him. It was so much easier to break than fix, people were hurt, the fight lasted for only a minute or so but so many people were hurt.

I did what I could, used my webbing to stop people from bleeding out, swung the really hurt ones to the nearest hospital, so on and so forth.

I noticed several Ambulances had arrived, but I didn't' stop. There were still people to save. It took nearly an hour for everything to be handles properly. I helped where I could and soon I realised people were staring at me. They were snapping pictures, whispering. I even saw a few news stations pointing their cameras at me.

"Spidey! Can we have a word?!" a news reporter asked.

"Sorry, no time," I told her, swinging away quickly. I quickly grabbed my school bag and swung my way towards Manhattan, their hideout was there. I found it quickly, found it hidden away in one corner, but it was easy to spot if you knew what to look for.

I snuck in through the window and crawled in. It looked like a gang of raccoons lived here, covered with trash and pornos. I moved past all that though and looked inside, finding a room that was cleaner than the rest.

It had a board with details of the heist put up. The truck to be used, what was to be stolen, the time and location of when to best make the heist. Everything. Sadly though didn't tell me why they suit was being stolen or for who.

I took out a mini SA out of my pocket and enlarged it to scan the entire board in one go. Never know when these things might be useful. I then looked around and found a table filled with the most advanced weaponry I have ever seen.

Night vision goggles, stun guns and sub-machine guns. Magnetic shoes, laser cutters, there was even a decoder box, something used to open high end safes. I figured the thieves had moe tools on hand and these were just the ones they didn't use.

I grabbed the night vision goggles and the decoder box, I can use the former when I'm going out in the dark and the latter could provide me with a clue.

Sneaking out the way I came in I swung towards the Baxter building and quickly went into my lab. I put the goggles aside and began to experiment on the decoder box, trying to figure out it's programing and what made it tick.

Just then Reed walked up in, he was surprised I was in costume but didn't comment on it. He looked at my table and blinked, "is that a decoder?"

I whistled, "you figured that out with one look?"

"Yes, what are you doing with it?" Reed asked.

"Did you see the NEWS?"

"You mean you taking on that armoured thief? Yes, I saw it. Sue was worried sick to be honest, Johnny however didn't seem to care, said you knew what you were doing. It looks impressive, I would love to get a good look at that thing. It's hydraulics are amazing, to allow something that heavy to jump so high? They're probably suing some sort of superposition liquid to…." I stared at him blankly, he blushed and rubbed his neck, "sorry for nerding out there."
