Chapter 1: The Bodyguard.
It was the beginning of an exciting summer. The Portland School for Girls has ended it's semester as all of the female students went out to go spend summertime elsewhere for the summer.
One particular female student was a 16-years-old girl with silver hair, pink skin, blue eyes, and wears her blue jacket with a white shirt, and blue short skirt, white long socks, and blue shoes stands to wait for her limosuine. Her name was Rose Wilson, daughter of her secretive father, Slade Wilson.
The limosuine stops at where Rose is as her butler, Wintergreen, opens the door for her. "Ready for the summer, Ms. Wilson?"
"Yes, Wintergreen." Rose replied as she gets inside the limo as her butler drives towards her home. Rose has never seen her father for a while, nor is she aware of what her father's business practice was. As long as she gets good grades and good school life, she couldn't care less.
"Have any thoughts of what you're gonna do for the summer, Rosaline?" Wintergreen asked her as he looks at the road.
"Nothing much." Rose replied as she looks out their window. 'Maybe I can take a trip to New York? I've always wanted to go there.' She thought. Rose always wanted to go to New York since it attracts a lot of attention because it's considered the capital superhero community of the world. 'Batman, Spider-Man, and the Avengers are an interesting group.'
It was her dream to visit New York one day. It all started with her last trip when she was a little girl. Her father first brought her there along with her brothers, Joey and Grant, as they see the sights. That was before New York had to suffer alien invasions, giant spiders, and time wars.
"We're home, Ms. Wilson." Wintergreen told her as Rose opens the limo door for herself as she enters the large, white mansion.
But what she saw when she entered the house surprised and caused her to blush before fear set in. On the stairs before her sat a blond boy around her age, wearing a black tank top and cargo jeans, but what caused her to feel fear was the guns and knifes she saw on his person and set out beside him. She froze as the the front door was closed behind her by her trusted uncle/butler Wintergreen. With Wintergreen in the room the silver haired girl felt loads better and didn't fear because the strongly built butler kept a couple hand guns on his person as well.
Hearing the door close and the familiar scent of the butler he met earlier the blond looked up to see his stone cold green eyes on a blond girl who he assumed was the girl he was hired to protect and the butler behind him.
"Good afternoon, Hunter." Wintergreen greeted the young man.
"Afternoon, Winter." Hunter greeted in return and the shy girl almost fainted when her blue eyes and his green ones locked for half a second.
"Wintergreen... w-who is that?" Rose asked the butler as she forced her eyes to her shoes.
"This is your father's new employee and your new bodyguard, Ms. Wilson." Wintergreen answered as he kept his face blank and so did the blond boy.
"B-Bodyguard? I don't need a bodyguard." Rose objected but was ignored.
"It is too late for that Ms. Wilson." The blond stood up and put his weapons away. "Your father already made the contract and I won't leave until fired, the job is complete or the contract is cancelled by your father. Your father made some dangerous business rivals."
"My father is a big game hunter! What kind of rival could he possibly have!?" Rose franticly demanded from the blond who looked unphased.
"People can do anything Ms. Wilson, names the Jade Hunter for your information." Hunter replied as he ignored the question.
"Answer the question!" Rose demands as she marches towards this so-called bodyguard. "Tell me who are the rivals!?"
"It's none of your concern as long as I'm around, Ms. Wilson." Hunter told her just as Rose guts him with her knee, causing him to wince in pain.
"Tsh, some bodyguard you turn out to be!" Rose sneered. "You can't even beat me! A twelve-times champion of martial arts, 6th degree black belt! Daddy needs to choose to someone else to protect me, but I have Wintergreen to do that job."
"Thank you, Ms. Wilson." Wintergreen replied as he watch the young Mistress march up to her room. "I am so sorry, Mr. Hunter. She takes it from her father's side."
"I hear." Hunter replied as he rubs his stomach. "But I'm sure in due time, she'll learn to like me. I'm a cool guy to hang after all."
"I suppose so." Wintergreen replied with a shrug.
/
"Dumb bodyguard." Rose grumbles as she lay on her bed of her room, as she opens her cellphone to check up any text. "What reason does my father have for hiring some chump?"
"To protect you, of course." said Hunter as he appeared out of nowhere as her close the window. "You shouldn't have your windows open like that. Potential assassins will either snipe, break-in, or jump in to kill you."
"Gah!" Rose screams in surprised as she glares at the blond. "What the hell are you doing here!?"
"Doing my job, keep you safe from any harm." Hunter replied as he notice the closet as he walks towards it and opens it. He checks inside which makes Rose angry as he comments. "Yep, all clear. Nothing but dresses and clothes."
"GET OUT OF MY CLOSET!" Rose shouts as she hits Hunter in the head as he fell onto the floor. "What kind of mercenary checks inside a girl's closet!?"
"To make sure there aren't any bad guys." he states as he sense the anger coming from the girl.
Rose attacked but she suddenly found herself face first on her carpet and her bodyguard sitting on her back with a sly grin on his face. The girl couldn't even fathom how he did it but somehow he moved with such speed that she never even saw it coming, his counterattack. It was then that she saw the claws on his hands that were by her face.
'Claws? What is he?' Rose thought in dread as she was able to turn her head enough to see his grin and what looked like fangs in his smile. 'How didn't I notice those before?'
"You want to try that again?" Hunter smugly asked as he allowed just that emotion to show. "I wouldn't mind getting you on your back this time."
Rose blushed heavily and silently cursed the boy as she mumbled something that she was sure that he couldn't hear. "Fucker."
"That wasn't polite." Hunter pointed out as he got off and handed the girl his hand.
"I can pick myself up, you know." Rose retorts as she gets herself up and walks out of her room. "If you need me, I'm going to the kitchen to make me a snack."
"Don't you have a butler for that?" he asked sarcastically, knowing that Wintergreen would make her one.
"I'm fine on making stuff on my own." she told him as she walks out from him.
'What a strange girl.' he thought as he notice a magazine page laying on the floor as he picks it up as it shows a catelog of New York's heroes, Iron-Man and Spiderman fighting Living Laser. 'New York, takes me way back.'
He then sense a rush from outside of the window as he turns around and spots a shadowy figure mid second before it disappeared. 'So it begins.'
/
Rose makes herself a PB&J sandwich as she grumbles to herself in getting herself to lose by Hunter.
'Who does he think he is? Thinking he can boss me around? He got lucky pinning me down.' she rants in her mind as she remembers the claws he has. 'Still, why does he have claws? Did he let them grow or something? There's no possibility that someone like him has claws.'
"Penny for your thoughts, Ms. Wilson?" asked Wintergreen as he steps forward towards the kitchen. "You should've asked me to make you a snack, Ms. Wilson."
"That's okay, Wintergreen. I didn't want to make you do things for me all the time." she replied. "I don't get why dad would send in some bodyguard for me, when I have you."
"Regardless of your father's decision, the Jade Hunter is the best there is." Wintergreen states. "From what I hear, he would never fail, and always get the job done. Why, I've heard that when he was hired by an organization, he took down 50 criminal organization members, without using any his weapons."
"Why would he need to with claws like those. And that speed." Rose mumbled in destain for her bodyguard. "What kind of freak is he."
"Rosaline I will not tolorate such behavor!" Wintergreen scolded the young lady. "He may have claws but that does not make him a freak."
"Yes Wintergreen." Rose respond in shame of her actions.

"Hehehehe, target is inside the home." said a sinister man in the shadows observes the girl. "Soon, you'll be in my grasp."
/
After eating her lunch, Rose decides to go outside for a while. She went to the backyard as she spots Hunter holding his binoculars to look around.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
"Checking for any threat detecting." he replied while not looking at the girl. "You can't trust anyone and anything that'll be after you."
"Like what, the birds?" Rose asked sarcastically as she roll her eyes.
"Some birds are trained to kill, ever heard of Oswald Copplebot, aka the Penguin? Well known bird trainer trained to steal and kill." he states.
"Whatever." Rose said as she notice the alarming expression Hunter has on his face, as he brings out his kunai knife and throws it at the target.
The knife hits, right between the legs of a terrified squirrel carrying it's nuts. The horrified squirrel grabs it's nuts and climb up the tree.
"Damn, I was aiming for the nuts." he comments.
"You could've killed that poor squirrel!" Rose barked in baffled at her bodyguard. 'Is this guy insane!?'
"Yeah, so?" he asked in a no-nonsense tone. "That squirrel could've been mind controlled to attack you."
"And who would do something that crazy!?" Rose questions.
"Dr. Octopus, Dr. Psycho, AIM, Ultra-Humanite, Toyman..." he listed.
'Correction, he's double insane.' Rose thought as she walks away from him.
"Hey, where are you going?" he asked.
"None of your business." Rose snarled as she turns her back from him.
"It's my business to know where you go." Hunter said as he cross his arms. "You can't just go out without your bodyguard."
"I'm fine on my own." Rose told him. "Besides, I don't need you to protect me."
"Why, ya don't want to be seen hanging out with a freak." Hunter comments which got Rose to stop walking. "You know, your father has reasons to hire me to protect you. You have no idea what kind of enemies lurk around here gunning for you."
'Great, he heard what I was said earlier.' Rose thought as she felt regretful on what she said.
"But then again, acting like a total spoiled rich kid makes you think you're better than everybody." Hunter rants as he was met with a smack across the face. He looks at the girl and notice how angry she is.
"Shut up! I don't need you, or anyone else to protect me!" Rose declared. "I can take a hint, if you don't like me, fine! Tell dad that you can't do a good job on protecting me!" as she yelled, she rush back into the house as Hunter is left with a red slap mark on his face.
/
"Idiot!" Rose shouts as she grabs her purse and wears her boots. "What does that creep know? I bet he's only protecting me for the money! Calling me a rich spoiled brat, who does he thinks he is!?" she yelled as she kicks the wall, unknown of the villain watching her is about to ambush her.
A mechanical tentacle sneaks up behind her as Rose saw the shadow of it as before she could scream, the metal arm wraps around her mouth, as she struggles to get it off of her.
"It's no use, missy." said a man with black greasy hair, goggles, sickening skin, and wears a hazmat bodysuit with four mechanical long arms appears out of the window as he looks at the girl. "Rose Wilson, what a pleasant surprise to meet you."
"Who are you!?" Rose demands as she struggles to get free from the psychotic man.
"Dr. Octopus, the man who fought Spiderman?" Dr. Octopus answered. "How can you not have heard of me!? I'm a world class dangerous criminal!"
"Rosaline!" Shout Wintergreen as he burst in the room with the gun. "Unhand her, Octavious!" He demands as he has been swatted away by the mechanical arms.
"Haha! Fool! I won't give up on the daughter of Slade!" Dr. Ock states.
'Father?' Rose thought as she manage to speak. "What are you saying, tentacle-freak!?"
"Oh, looks like this little girl doesn't know about her father's work." Dr. Octopus cruelly chuckled as he hears someone spoke.
"Hey." Hunter spoke as the villain turns to Hunter. "Drop the girl, and no one gets hurt, squid face."
"Squid face!? Don't play hero with me, ingrate!" Dr. Octopus shouts angrily as he orders one tentacle arm to charge towards the bodyguard, pushing him out of the way.
"Hunter!" Rose cried out as she's being dragged out of the house as she gave the seemingly unconscious blond a look 'I'm sorry.'
/
At an abandon warehouse where no one around, Dr. Octopus comes in as he throws the tied up Rose to the cold floor. "Welcome to my warehouse."
"Let me go!" Rose demands as she looks around and spots other five rich girls tied and unconscious. "W-what is this?"
"Oh, I believe an answer is in order." Doc Ock replied as he grins evilly. "You see, I've been having a low budget and I need some ransom money, and what good is ransom money is to kidnap daughters of well known businessmen! That way, they'll see their daughters with me, they'll give me money."
"You...you bastard!" Rose barks as she kicks the doctor which makes him angry.
"You little bitch." Dr. Octopus sneered as one of his mechanical arms charges at Rose, wrapping around her waist and picks her up. "You damn bitch, I was gonna let you live if you learn to behave, but now you lost your chance!"
"Typical Ock." A voice rang out through the building. "Can't get any on his own so he has to ransom little princesses."
"Who's there!?" Ock barked as he held one of his dagger arms up to the throat of the girl.
"Me! Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!" The voice responded in a steriotypical fashion. "Here to save the day!"
"Spider-Man doesn't sound like that! And besides he would already be in the open and acting like a fool!" Ock objected in irritation.
"What, ain't you ever heard of a cold before?" The voice asksd before a unknown force broke of the of arms that was threatening the girl and kicked his back and he was sent to the floor.
The frighten Rose looks up to her savior. It was Hunter, holding her in his arms as he sets her on her feet. "You okay, Rose?" he asked as she nodded yes. "Good. Free the other girls, Wintergreen has already called reinforcements to pick them up."
"You...you think you can stop me!? I am Dr. Otto Octavious! The smartest man of the world!" Dr. Octopus states as he has his mechanical arms to charge at Hunter, as he grabs two of them as he holds them reaching from his face as the claws spins like fans. "I'll chop you up to bits for trying to play hero."
"Funny thing to say, but I'm not a hero." Hunter states as he smirk as he shows his fangs. "I'm more than you ever think what I am."
'Fangs? Why is he showing his fangs?' Rose asked himself as she notice the mercenary's ears starting to point up. 'His ears!'
Dr. Octopus suddenly felt something odd about his opponent, as his tendrils soon is being pulled by Hunter as the bodyguard unleash his claws and scratch the doctor across the face. "AAAAHHH! My face!"
"It will be more than just your face, Otto." Hunter growled as he dodges one of Dr. Octopus's metal arms. "I wonder how on Earth did Spider-Man get a pathetic excuse of an enemy like you."
"SHUT UP, I AM SUPERIOR THAN YOU!" Dr. Ock shouts as he sees Hunter jumps up in the air and gives Octavious a kick in the face. "Alright, you gave me no choice!" he said as his tendrils starts charging electricity. "Thanks to some upgrades from my old pal Dr. Light, my extra arms will shock you until you're fried!"
'Then it looks like I'll have to finish him off.' he thought as a green aura surrounds him. Something animalistic inside of him emerges as the electric arms charges towards him. There was a huge static electricity spark as Dr. Octopus grins that he thought he had finished him off, just as Rose stared in horror.
"Finally, he's dead!" Dr. Ock shouts as he laughs evilly as he is over confident of his work. He did not notice that Hunter was behind him as his appearance looks different. Furry arms and legs, dog-like ears, a tail, and a black nose.
His skin is also noticeably green.
'Time to show Rose why I'm called the Jaded Hunter.' Hunter thought as he taps onto Otto's shoulder as the doctor turns around and saw the green, furry man grinning at him. "You're really not so cut out on this, are you Otto?"
"Do not speak, insect." Ock snarled as he shot two arms at the man, but he caught them and broke them with ease. "No!"
"Canine." Hunter smirked before pouncing on the man and pinning him to the floor. "But I understand how you didn't know that. All these years ole Spidy hitting that nead must have had some side affects."
"Did you just insult my intelligence?" Ock growled as he used his last arm to kill the man, but only suceeded in having it broken before his eyes.
Getting off the man the green skin bodyguard turned back to his tanned complexion and walked over to his client. "You did attack me with one arm when I can clearly destroy two at the same time with superior speed and strength so... yeah I guess you can say that." He told the villian before reaching the girl and looked at her with his cold eyes. "Need help?"
"Shouldn't you finish him?" Rose asked as she took the hand.
"He lost his arms so there is no reason to. Nothing but a mere human." Hunter dismissed.

The SWAT team came later as they arrested Dr. Octopus for kidnappings, and for not paying his hotel bills. Turns out the doctor was on vacation from New York and has been skipping out payment from hotels, restaurants, and movie theaters that played foreign movies. Now Otto will be sentence to SHIELD imprisonment.
Rose, wearing a blanket around her, watch as she sees the girls reuniting with their parents. This made the girl a little jealous inside seeing all of those girls with their wealthy parents as she starts to miss seeing her father, and her mother.
It was then she felt a cold metal can on her face as she turns and see Hunter holding a can of soda to her. "Wintergreen said that you like Dr. Pepper." he states as Rose grabs it from his hand.
"Thank you." Rose replied as she opens the top and drinks her soda. She notice how Hunter has been giving her a cold stare as she recalls for what she said. "Hey, Hunter."
"Yeah?" he asked as he lit his cigarette.
"I'm...sorry for what I said before." she replied as she looks down in shame.
"What, about the freak comment you said? I'm over it." he replied, though it was a lie.
Rose stiffens as she stands up and face him. "Well...I suppose that there should be some gratitude for rescuing me. Don't get me wrong, I still don't want you around. I know a good restaurant with delicious food we can get."
"Well no matter what, you're stuck with me." Hunter told her as he roll his eyes. "But I'll accept your offer, but I'm paying."
"No, I'm paying for the food." Rose insist. "It's the least to award my bodyguard."
"But I can pay for my own food." He retorts. "I don't need some kid to pay for me."
"Who are you calling a kid!? We're practically the same age!" Rose rants as the two continues to argue just as Wintergreen came and watch them argue.
'Just like children.' Wintergreen thought as he wonders where his master is.
/
Watching the scene from afar, a black haired girl in a green kimono watch the snow haired girl arguing with the blond man that she knew too well.
"So, the Jade Hunter is protecting some rich girl." She snarled as she breaks her binoculars. "I'll make sure that you and I are truly meant to be."

Hope you like the first chapter. So yeah, this will start with Hunter and Rose having a rocky start. For those who can guess who is this mystery girl at the end, internet cookies for you.
