Who's gonna prove they're the Best in the World at what they do?
Spider-man was doing his usual patrols through New York City, checking for any crimes, from Bank Robberies, to Purse Snatching, even watching for a potential Supervillain.
"Wonder if this is gonna be a slow day? Less work for me and also good cause people are safe, though I could use a few snapshots of Spider-man in action for the Daily Bugle"
As he continued he saw a man moving around suspiciously.
"Hello what's this? he went down and went stealth mode to follow the guy.
The guy moved through New York, clutching something to his chest, Spider-man kept a distance but made sure to keep the guy in his sights.
He followed him for a few minutes until he went into an old house in a less busier part of New York.
Spider-man watched the guy go in from a nearby rooftop.
"Hm, what is he up to?"
At that moment, The Human Torch, Johnny Storm, arrived right near Spider-man, "Yo Pete, what's up?"
Spider-man turned to see Johnny, "Johnny? What brings you here?"
"I can ask you the same, you doing a stakeout?"
"Sorta, look", Spider-man pointed to the old house.
"What about it?"
"I saw a guy run in there, he looked kinda shady"
"Shady how?"
"He was running while holding something, he just seemed suspicious"
Johnny pondered a moment, "You know you could be overreacting"
"Come on, I've been at this long enough to know when some guy's being shady"
Johnny sighed, "Well if you really think that lets head in closer and listen in, maybe you're on to something, you do have a sixth sense for danger"
Both Spider-man & Johnny Storm moved in closer to listen in near the window.
"You got the stuff?" one guy asked.
"Yeah, here's the paperwork on the girl, though why her? I figured the boss wants stuff on that Wolverine guy?"
That got Spider-man & Johnny's attention.
"No, the boss just wants info on that girl, he needs her for some experiments, once he's done, that old man Wolverine won't be an issue anymore"
Little did the guy know, someone had appeared behind him, "You mention my name bub?"
Johnny and Spider-man then heard some fighting in the house and some gunshots, they looked through the window to see Wolverine taking out all the guys with no trouble.
He was shot several times but the bullet holes healed quickly as he broke the guns and knocked out the guys, he then went to the leader who had a gun aimed.
"Stay back!"
Wolverine destroyed the gun, and then grabbed the papers, "Where is she?"
"How should I know, I'm just a-"
Then they heard a voice through the radio, "Hey! You there!? We just grabbed the girl and Stryker needs her right now! Remember we're located at an old warehouse not too far off the coast of the George Washington Bridge, get here soon! We don't like waiting!"
Wolverine recognized that voice.
"Sabretooth", he looked to the guy, "You have outlived your usefulness"
"NO DO-!" Wolverine stabbed down, impaling the guy through his heart, with blood gushing out.
Spider-man & Johnny Storm looked appalled.
Wolverine wiped the blood off his claws then noticed Spider-man and Johnny at the window.
"What do those nimrods want?" he opened the door and looked outside, "You know it's weird to stare into people's houses"
The two shook their heads fast and pointed inside.
"You just killed that guy!" Spider-man shouted.
"Are you nuts or something!?" Johnny asked.
Wolverine snorted, "Big deal, son of a bitch had it coming"
"What's going on anyway!?" Spider-man asked.
"You remember X-23?"
The two nodded.
"She's that clone of yours", Johnny said.
"Whom I've dubbed, 'The Wolverette'", Spider-man said with a chuckle.
"Yeah she hates that by the way, anyway the Weapon X team, the ones responsible for my metal claws, have been looking for her lately, to finish what they started, to make her a perfect clone of me, so I've been tracking down lately to find where these bastards are hiding, now I know, and I intend to go there, stop the experiment, get Laura out of there and finish my business with Sabretooth & Weapon X in general"
"Um Logan, probably better if you didn't go in there alone, it could be dangerous", Johnny said.
Wolverine scoffed, "Think I care?"
"Well no but still, you need to think this through, I mean I'm sure you don't wanna deal with a load of them, suppose Sabretooth has allies", Spider-man said.
"Suppose? He does have allies, like that lady who really needs a manicure, or the Russian dude with the tentacles"
Peter chucked, "Tentacles, I've seen enough hentai to-"
"NO!" Johnny shouted.
"But yeah Logan, they've given you a run for your money before, this time may not be so different", Spider-man said.
Wolverine angrily growled, "Kid...have you forgotten than I'm the best in the world at what I do? I've been at this a long time! Hell you've teamed with me yourself, why would you say something so stupid as hell? I've fought them by myself before, what makes you think I can't do it again?" Wolverine asked.
"Ok I'm gonna get to the point...we'd like to join you", Spider-man said.
Wolverine just glared at them, "You wanna what?"
"This could be another opportunity to prove ourselves, I'll get the rest of the crew and we'll go find the Weapon X people and take them out", Spider-man said.
"Kid, this isn't something for you to try with your stupid group, now get out of my way", Wolverine said and walked right through them to the front door.
"Well that didn't go so well now did it?" Johnny said.
"Come on, we gotta go help Wolverine", Spider-man said.
Johnny stood there a moment before, "What!? He said he doesn't want help!"
"Well, we're gonna go help him anyway, it's our duty as heroes"
"Have you forgotten that this is Wolverine? He's a freaken lunatic! He might gut us, well screw 'might', he WILL gut us"
"Come on, this is Weapon X, don't you want to see how exactly they do things there?" Spider-man asked.
"Let me think about that um...Hell no!" Johnny said.
"Well you stay if you want, I'm going, I'm even gonna ask the others if they wanna come", Spider-man said.
"The others? Wait the rest of The Crew? Come on Wolverine barely wants two people, let alone 5 others, not to mention he doesn't fully trust Venom or Felicia, they WERE villains"
"Key word is 'were', besides if not for Wolverine, lets do this for Laura"
Johnny groaned, "You're so weird Parker"
"Hey if you don't wanna help you don't have to" Spider-man removed his mask to give a cheeky smile, "I'll just tell them you chickened out"
Johnny looked displeased, "Oh hell no Parker!"
Peter the did chicken moves and noises to Johnny until, "Alright fine! You win...dumbass"
Peter chuckled and put his mask back on, "Of course, now let's go, gotta get the group together" he swung off, leaving Johnny to shake his head, "Why do I hang out with him? Guys like me stuff guys like him in lockers" Johnny also then flew off.
Poor Johnny, oh well time for another faction war soon, just straight up fighting.
