New York. The epicienter of the USA some would say. With many people living in this time and place, its not like unexpected things go un noticed. Then again, when you had super powered indivisauls damaging your property, you can't help but notice.
Its not like Spider-Man meant to go through the window, destroying that shopkeeper's antiques. It wasn't his fault that damn symbiote and that damn octopus were already recking store, looking for some ancient artifact. Spidey did ask nicely if they were on a scavenger hunt and if he could help. Needless to say, their response was less than enthutastic
"Honestly, who knew Venom kept octopuses as pets?" Spidey asked himself. So, in the process of trying to save the shopkeeper and his employees, he still got blamed. It made matter worse when Octavius launched him into a young woman 's apartment: in her shower. Sure, he apologied but that didnt stop her from calling him every bad name associated with spiders...and his anatomy...and stuffing soap into his mouth.
What could those two look for in a regular shop?
I swung back down to the shopkeeper, apologizing once agian for the damage to the store.
"Did you know how much all these anttiques cost?" the shopkeeper barked at me..
"Uh..." I scratched my head. "A buck?" I joked. The shopkeeper's face turned redder than before. "Nothing but trouble!" He said "All you so called "Heroes" are nothing but trouble!!"
Only The Avengers and Fantastic Four could be let off the hook, Never Spider-Man.
A cop walked up to the two of them. "Your lucky sir,if he didnt show up when he did, you might have lost more than your antiqutes." He said.
Wow, a cop actually coming to my defense, interesting.
As the paramedics tended to the wounded, cops and firefighters doing their reports. I swung off in search of Venom and Doc Ock.
Is my life always shafted? I didn't need any added problems concidering me and MJ had planned a lunch together this afternoon. Now I had to tell her I was going to be late, very late...
"Bingo!" I spotted Venom and Doc Ock, running. Apparently one was holding up the other, both indivisually would have been long gone by now. They didnt get what they were looking for at the shop, because I could hear them arguing. Doc Ock turned around, for the sake of Spider-Man showing up. "Spider-Man! ggrrrr..." He said.
Spidey chuckled under his mask.
Oh, wow.
"Grrrrrr??? come on Doc Ock, even you can do better than 'gggrrr...'" I positioned myself to tie up Ock's tentatcles.
-BAM-
Ow...oh wait...
I forgot about Venom. "Spider, why must you always interfere?" He asked as we hit the streets of brooklyn below.I landed a kick on him. "Come on, twinkle toes, its a superhero thing." I said trying to web Venom up.
-RIPP-
"Time and time agian you annoy and bother us!" The symboite said ripping off the webbing and, swipping at Me. I ducked out of Venom's way, only to be knocked silly by Ock's tentacle across his back. "Say.." I said gauging his two opponents. "Did you two meet on a local hookup date line, 'cause you two make one ugly couple!"
Enraged, Venom and Doc Ock then used their repective tentacles. Whipping them out, as I used every muscle in his body to avoid them. -WHAM!-
A fist, connected with my jaw, sending him reeling into another window. This time, a clothing store. I flew into one the clothing racks, With Doc Ock lifting me into the air, then tossing me arond like handball.
-WHAM!, WHAM!, WHAM!, WHAM!-
"Uggghhh..." I moaned as panic erupted around me. Blood dripped from his mouth onto his chin.
Crap, internal bleeding.
The store wasn't evacuated as customers and staff ran around, not out in terror. Venom was all to happy to add to the chaos. "RRRROOOOOAAAR!" Venom roared to the frightned people. They ran began falling and stepping on each other, while Doc Ock was smiling. "I've waited so long this moment.."
He said hoisting me in the air. His tentacles wrapped around my battered ribs, squeezing me as, I felt my bones creaking.
"AAAHHHH!"
Yep, it hurt like hell..
Like to music to Doc Ock's ears as the pressure increased.
"What's that?" I painfully said to Ock.
"What's what?" Doc Ock asked in mild confusion.
"This!" I said, using my avalible arms and legs, connecting the cash register with Doc Ock's chin.
"Ahhhh!" He screamed as his grip on Spidey was broken.
Coughing and gagging as my lungs filled with blood, I regained my groundings enough with a swift kick to Doc Ock's ribs.
Hang on a sec...
"Where's Venom?" I asked.
-BOOM- Against my skull
You had to ask....
It sounded like a canon going off, as Venom's foot connected with my back.
"Octavius, we didnt come here to fight with the Spider." Venom said, carrying out Doc Ock.
Honestly?...
-THWIP-
"Really, you could have fooled me!" I webbed Venom's feet, falling on his face. Doc Ock's head connected with the floor.
"We don't have time for this!" Venom siad, shredding the web bound on his feet.
I landed on Venom's chest and fired webbing again, tying him up. "And just in case.." Spidey said webbing Doc Ock's feet, arms, hands and tentacles.
"Now you do..." I said to Venom. "Talk."
Venom's tongue shot out, trying to wrap itself around my throat.
Close one... why isnt he with KISS???
"Oops...your breath..." I said grabbing it. "Forgot about that but, please continue"
