1: …No I was asking who are what Peter should join with…you didn't specify…
INeedAUsernam8: Ok. To your questions then…I guess they'd be 17-18 maybe…and just because they didn't use protection, doesn't mean he impregnated her (which he didn't, also it was the end of that story).
Chapter 8: The All Seeing Eye
(30 minutes earlier, in the meeting room)
The raining session had ended with Spidey defeating the four Avengers, who Nick had called to spar with the group. Nick expected the Avengers to wipe the floor with the young heroes. He knew that it would've been a developing lesson in combat and teamwork. They actually lasted longer and fought harder than expected. But then Spider-Man came in and beat them…well…actually he humiliated them in a way. Some time ago, Cap had beaten Spider-Man and the original team single-handedly. This time, the wall crawler beat him and three of his comrades/friends. The Avengers stood around the room, shame faced. Nick was silent; he didn't even face them (both the young heroes and the Avengers).
"Well that was interesting." Fury said. "Don't start Fury." Tony grunted. "Oh I will start cowboy. I've always known Spider-Man was a good fighter…but he kicked you around like a bunch of rookies. You're supposed to be Earth's Mightiest Heroes, heroes who lost to a former recruit of yours. You defeated the others, but not as fast as I expected." Fury growled.
Tony and Hawkeye frowned. They weren't happy with being beat by the web-slinger. Tony and Clint had taken it harder than Cap and Hulk did.
"It's over Tony, we lost. We couldn't work together well enough." Steve sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. "Yeah, bug man beat us pretty good." Hulk added. "Sp…just forget it…" Peter sighed in a growling voice.
Fury turned and locked his one good eye on him. Peter looked at him, his expression blank.
"You fought well out there Spider-Man…by yourself…"Fury hissed. "What's that supposed to mean?" Spidey hissed back. "It's true, you pulled it off: you defeated the Avengers…well…some of them…but not with your team." The Director replied.
Luke cleared his throat.
"Sir, with all due respect, he did something incredible! Can't you let him have somewhat of a break on this?" Power Man stated. "Not when it comes to letting those under one's command to be defeated and helpless before the enemy. He left you all high and dry. He just wanted to them all to himself and take out his frustration on his sparring opponents." Fury grunted.
Luke's face turned into an expression of confusion, but quickly turned into one of understanding. Some of the other young heroes nodded. Three of the Avengers had confused expressions.
"Just over her…" Tony sighed. "What?" Clint asked. "Remember how T'Challa said he had to leave to go back to Wakanda?" Iron Man replied. "You mean after you…" Hawkeye started to say. But Iron Man interrupted by quickly saying, "He took Spidey's teammate, White Tiger, with him."
The other Avengers' had curious looks but then nodded. Unknown to the others, but under his mask, Peter was blushing like crazy. Clint then grinned at the young hero.
"I see why, hehe…" The archer chuckled. "It's not…" Peter grunted, his anger unable to allow him to finish his retort.
Fury made a sound like a snort of a bull. The others turned to look at the Director of SHIELD.
"You think you can fool me? You see this here." Fury said, pointing to his one good eye. "Yeah…what's that…" Peter couldn't finish his sentence. "This is the all seeing eye! It sees everything! It misses nothing! It saw your temper tantrum after she left with the king! It saw your teammates being beat by veteran heroes while you sat back and watched the show! It saw each of those four being beat by your brutal rage! It saw Iron Man checking himself out in the mirrors of his own making before the sessions started!" Fury growled. "Got you there Tony." Clint chuckled as he elbowed the Iron Knight.
Tony frowned at his teammate. Spidey's expression is unreadable, but anyone could tell he was truly listening to Fury.
"How else do you think I'm in this position?! I don't miss any details! I keep myself targeted on the mission at hand! You just had a selfish impulse to fix!" Fury snarled. "Fury, be easy on the kid. He obviously misses the girl. Anyone can see that." Cap interrupted. "That's the problem Rogers. He's so fixated on something that isn't immediately important that it's keeping him from focusing." Fury replied.
(I'm not fixated on Ava's absence! I'm not! It's just…AHHHH!)
The tension in the room is still boiling. The anger rose between Peter and Nick. They continued to stare at one another. Peter had admitted to himself that he missed Ava, they were good friends. Of course they didn't always get along…but their connection was strong. Ever since they had defeated Kraven, they were close. He had even picked her to be on his team to fight the Grandmaster himself those many months ago.
"Look kid, it isn't easy for any of us…" Fury sighed, his anger finally subsiding.
Nick got a sudden, emergency call over his communicator. The others looked at one another confused. Then something shocked them that it even sent Hulk jumping from where he stood.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY MOTHERFUCKER?! HE FUCKING ESCAPED! HE WAS BEING WATCHED BY PROFESSIONALS! HE WHAT?! AND YOU ALL FELL FOR IT! YOU HAD THE CHANCE TO CALL ME EARLIER AND YOU DIDN'T?! LISTEN YOU STUPID SON OF A BITCH! YIU HUNT HIM DONE AND LOCK HIM BACK UP IN THE CELL OR I WILL PERSONALLY COME DOWN THERE AND PUT A CAP IN YOUR ASS!" Fury screamed to high heaven.
His roaring could put the bellowing of the Hulk when he's mad to shame.
"Who escaped?" Nova gasped. "KRAVEN, THAT"S WHO! SON OF A FUCKING BITCH!" Fury roared, not even turning to look at Sam.
(No….)
"So much for the all seeing eye, right Fury?" Iron Man chuckled.
A bullet flew past his face. Tony's face turned pale white. Fury's face was the face of rage itself.
"YOU FUCKING SAY ONE MORE DAMN THING, AND I WON'T MISS NEXT TIME! YOU GOT THAT PRETTY BOY!" Fury bellowed. "G-Got it…" Tony gulped.
Fury turned to look at Spidey, his face turned from rage to worry.
"Follow me Spider-Man…I have to explain something to you…"Fury sighed.
To be continued…
