Damn it! A freaking speedster... This fight could take a while.
My senses are tingling in every direction. I have never faced an opponent so fast before. But what surprised me the most was his face. He looks exactly like Pietro from MCU. The only difference was his suit. But more importantly, why the fuck is he working with OsCorp? And if he's here, what about Wanda? Where is she? Because if she gets ticked off, she might just kill us all in a heartbeat.
For a moment, it was as if the time froze around me. My body felt sluggish, but my senses were going insane! And in that slowed state, the kid came to stand right in front of me.
"Sorry, not that sorry," He hit me right on my jaw, followed by a barrage of punches and kicks, all over my body. "You shouldn't have stuck your nose in the first place, Spidey." Pietro's final punch sent me flying across the room. I quickly webbed to the ceiling and tried to recover, ignoring the burning pain, but he appeared before me. "Here's a piece of advice. Give up. You can not win." Once again, that sluggish feeling. I can see his movements, I can hear his voice. but my body was just frozen in a single spot. Pietro released another flurry of punches and kicks, then he picked up the gun from the floor and shot the web line.
"Ugggg." I fell hard and flat on my back. My body ached all over. This fucker and his speed, not giving a chance for me to breathe or counterattack.
"Ready to give up?" Pietro taunted as he swung his fists like a boxer.
"Pietro, I guess? Where is your sister, Wanda?" I shook off the pain and grunted as I stood back up on my feet. "And why the fuck are you two working for Osborn?"
"How do you know our names?" He frowned in curiosity. "Wait, you know us, but I have never seen your face and we just got out of that fucking place last week, so there isn't any way anyone can know us yet. So, how do you know about us?" He stared at me.
"It doesn't matter. But seeing how you are here, she must be here, somewhere, keeping an eye on the situation. But there's one question I am curious to know. How come Osborn is not affected by her mental manipulation and managed to subdue you two?" I dusted the dust from my shoulder, getting ready for the second time. I need to wrap this up quickly.
"Mental manipulation? What the hell are you talking about? Do you know anything about Wanda? If yes, tell me. Who are you? Why do you know us?" He narrowed his eyes as he bombarded me with questions.
I did not answer and dashed toward him while covering my body with my organic webbing. This time, he also charged at me. He was fast as usual. I know I can't avoid his punch. Well, if I can't avoid it, I'll just let him punch me.
A hard punch on my right cheek, followed by another punch on my left cheek...
"Gotcha!" The webbing around my suit, stuck to his fists, throwing him off as he tried to pull his arm back for the next punch. My custom web shooter was already in web bomb mode. I quickly aimed at his head and shot the web bomb, covering his head in a thick layer of web.
"What the hell?!" He jumped back in shock, but his fists were still stuck to my cheeks.
I quickly webbed him into a big cocoon, and finally, webbed him to the ground, "Sorry, kiddo. I ain't got time to waste on you. I don't know why you are working with Osborn or whatever lies he had fed to you, I don't care. But I won't allow you or anyone to hurt these innocent people. Next time you get in my way, I promise, I'll kill you."
I tore open some of the webs and took out the remote from his pocket, then unlocked their collars.
"If you choose to continue working for Osborn, you will both die sooner or later. I'm sure you know that once I expose him, the Avengers and the government will take down Osborn and they will capture anyone related to him. So, use your head and think. Why must you work for criminals when you can do better with your powers and prevent others from facing the same fate you two have faced? You can save people while living your life to the fullest, but instead, you are working for a mad scientist who experiments on people for profit?" I stood up and turned toward the baffled people who just regained their freedom. "Find me, if you siblings want to do some good..."
Seeing how Wanda didn't show up... She might be on the other side of the tunnel.
[Ring!] A text from Frank. He has secured the harbor with Daredevil and Jessica Jones's help. And he captured a teenage girl who was throwing red energy blasts. I texted back, telling him not to hurt her and that we were on our way.
Now, we just have to get these people out of here safely.
"Come on, everyone. Let's go." I gestured toward the tunnel.
****
It took us almost 30 minutes to walk through the dark tunnel to reach the other side. As soon as we reached the exit, Frank and others were already there, waiting for us.
"How did it go in there?" Frank asked as he walked up to me.
"Well, you know, the usual, zero casualties and plenty of dead baddies. Anyway, I can't stay here. I'm sure those two have already alerted the cops and all. So, mind giving me a lift? After all that fight, my entire body is aching." I stretched my back.
"Sure," Frank chuckled. Well, so, the big bad Punisher can smile after all. "I'll be in the car." He walked toward one of the cars parked at the entrance.
"So, you are Spiderman, huh?" Daredevil came up to me. "We are going to have a long talk once this is all over."
"Yeah, I guess. If things go south, I'm gonna need a good lawyer after all," I smirked under the mask and walked up to Wanda. She looked at me as if I had just asked for her kidneys.
"What about him? Did you...?" Wanda asked with a hint of anger in her voice.
"Nope. He's alright. Don't worry. Anyway, ask Dr. Strange for help. He will help you master your power," I said and walked toward the group of people we had just saved. As much as I would like to take her with me... Well, given her unstable power and unstable mental condition, it's better to leave her with them for now.
Ah! There she is, the reason why I am here in the first place.
"Hey, can I talk to you for a second?" I walked up to one of the ladies from the group, wearing a white jumpsuit. "Sarah? Your name is Sarah, right? Your father's name, Joshua? His friends call him Josh?"
"Y-You know my father? Is he...? He is alive?" Sarah stuttered. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying.
"He's safe and sound. He's been worried about you. So, if it's okay with you, I'd like you to come with me. I'll take you to him," I said in a soft voice.
"T-Thank you," She muttered softly and looked up at me, tears streaming down her face.
****
On our way back to Queens...
"Is she the one?" Frank asked as he glanced at the girl sitting next to me in the back seat.
"Yup! I owe her dad and made a promise to him. Now, I'm finally going to fulfill that promise," I said as I leaned back in my seat.
"Hmm... You put your life on the line to keep a promise?" Frank asked curiously.
"Well, yeah. I don't know why, but I just did my best to keep it." I shrugged.
"Well, if you want to keep saving lives, I could use some help to clean up the streets of this city," Frank glanced at me through the rearview mirror. "If you want, that is."
"Buy that safehouse and everything from that list, and if you need money, let me know. We have a long road ahead because I doubt Osborn gonna just lay low after this blow," I said, massaging my forehead. I can feel a headache coming.
"He's running for president this time, so, he will be busy cleaning his mess rather than come after us at the moment. That should give us enough time to prepare for what's to come," Frank added.
"We will see," I said, looking outside the window.
