Reviews:
ArtemisBAMF1218 - I'm glad the Peter chapter really tied things up. I wanted to add a little more Peter without him taking over. That's also another thing I wanted to address, how do the rest of the team react to finding out about these things that maybe they try to keep on the down-low. Anyway, enjoy, hope to hear from you soon.
TheImmortalDanny - Well, glad to know you are patient. Cuz it's been a while. Hm... Danny lose control? Maybe... we shall see... you might have just given me a little bit of an idea for something. Anyway, please enjoy.
Death Fury - Thanks! Enjoy!
Chapter 10: Sam
Training without court stinks.
We've had to get creative, and Coulson has left Spider-Man to do the creative thinking part.
I also don't like training out in the open, I don't think anyone else cares for it either.
At least Web-Brain is getting creative with the setting.
Being rusty and failing out in public, how fun…
"Take five!" Spider-Man called out to us as he raised his wrist to check him com. "It's Doc Connors."
"About time we get a break." I groan. "Anyone miss court? And Coulson giving us workouts?"
"I didn't expect that out of you." White Tiger crosses her arms.
"He's not wrong." Power-Man agrees. "But we're doing the best we can with what we have."
"Spider is doing well, also," Iron Fist adds. "He's adapting, and improving as a leader."
"Connors needs me but I don't know if he said 'come alone' or 'don't come alone.'" Spider-Man explains once his call is over, "You guys want to come?"
"And watch you two spew nerd all over each other? No thanks…" I wince as I start to levitate above the ground. I float out of the way and start hovering away from the group.
"Besides, I have major homework." White Tigers adds. "I barely had time for this training session."
"We got your back though." Power-Man offers. "Call us if you need us."
"Peace," Iron Fist offers up a half-hearted two finger salute as he walks after the rest of us.
Finally… time to get home and chill….
Ava flips on the news as she walks into the living room, hair wrapped up in a towel.
"Do you mind?" I ask looking up from my math homework to glare in her direction.
"Hey, I'm supposed to watch the news for homework." Ava looks over her shoulder. "You got a problem with that?"
"What class?"
"My Current Events elective." Ava answers. "Come one, we're…" she throws her hands up instead of saying 'hero.' "Besides, the world is changing."
"May's not home is she?" I ask.
"I don't think so, but still Ava, does it have to be JJJ?" Luke asks from across the table.
"No," Ava turns the volume down a little. "But don't you guys find it funny that Peter hasn't checked in yet? When he stays late to do lab work he's been pretty good about letting us know when he'll be back."
"Are you saying it's unlikely he forgot?" I ask.
"Yeah… pretty much." Ava agrees as she pulls out her binder from her backpack.
"Put some headphones in like Danny if it really is bothering you," Ava suggests.
I glare at her as I look back at my textbook propped up in front of me.
She's right. Parker usually does check in to let us know when he'll be getting home.
"Breaking News: Spider-Man and his frenemies are at it again!" JJJ shouts on the TV. "Destroying public property and endangering the lives of innocent people."
"Do you think he needs our assistance?" Danny asks, he sat beside me reading, he had pulled out his headphones to pay more attention to what was going on.
"I can't even tell who he's fighting," Ava comments as she sits up on the couch and moves her laptop to the side. "Let's not jump to conclusions."
"We cannot rest until this web-slinging delinquent is behind bars. When are the good people of New York City going to catch on?"
"Sound like the usual to me." Luke gets up from the table and walks over to lean on the back of the couch.
"Hey, I look good on the big screen." Peter's voice comes over the TV screen.
"See, he seems fine," I comment. "Perfectly fine."
"Hm… maybe this is a way to get a hold of my team." He says more to himself before looking right into the camera again. "Nova, White Tiger, Power-Man, and Iron Fist, this is your fearless leader coming at ya! I know you're thinking; I just like seeing myself on TV, but something's come up kitties. My communicator is scrap metal, so I hope you're seeing this; swinging over to meet my favorite lady, if you'll take the liberty to join me there, like, now."
"Ugh!" I groan leaning back in my chair. "Never getting this done!"
"Let's go, Sam." Ava orders as she runs upstairs to get out costumes.
"Add to his list of larcenies, hitching a ride on the private property of The Daily Dugle, interrupting my broadcast to give a shout out to his masked buddies. Get off my property, you arachnid pest!" JJJ's face pops up in the corner of the screen.
"You want me to get off your chopper?"
"Have you got webs in your ears? I said get off my chopper!"
"Whatever you say, broom lip."
"Does he know the camera picked that up?" I ask.
"Probably not," Luke sighs walking over to the windows to close the blinds.
"Do we really have to go help him?"
"Sam, he would not have done that if it were not necessary. Perhaps with our assistance was can end the fight quickly." Danny says as he closes his book and turns off his music.
Ava rushes down the stairs and tosses my helmet to me. "You're the fastest; go hold them off while we get there." She orders. "Or at least get Spidy out of trouble."
"Fine…" I grab my helmet out of the air. "Don't throw my helmet."
"Just go!" Ava orders. "Pull up the Bugle broadcast on your watch to keep an eye on his location, we will track you."
Luke had already closed the blind as I put my helmet on. "Aren't we being a little careless?"
"We've got to do what we can." Ava sighs handing Danny his folded costume. And then passing Luke his. "This is only temporary after all. Now, go out the attic, don't draw attention to yourself, we'll be right behind you."
I put my helmet on and feel the warmth of the Nova Force wash over me. "See you when you get there," I call as I fly up the stairs.
"Once again, Spider-Man has roped his masked maniacs into a battle that will undoubtedly cost the taxpayers of this city an arm and a leg." JJJ's voice echoes on my communicator.
"Guess again you weird old man," I shout as I fly by the chopper that is broadcasting the fight as it goes down. I hold out my arm and take only a second to aim as I shoot out only the camera attached to the bottom of the helicopter.
I swing down and hit Beetle and Doc Ock in one blast and Rhino in another, grabbing Spider-Man by the leg as I fly through the remaining villains to get us some space to maneuver.
"Wow, imagine a day where I actually say; 'Nova, and I glad to see you.'" Spider-Man comments from below me.
"Yeah, well you were on every TV in the city, hard to ignore, and I did try," I explain, looking down at him as I slow enough to drop him.
Power-Man easily sends Kraven to the ground as he rushes us.
"You ok?" Power-Man asks.
I honestly thought they were further behind me.
"Oh, you know, broken this, bruised that. But now it's just a simple matter of… defeating six of the deadliest villains in the world at the same time." Spider-man rubs his neck as he turns to look at the regrouping villains. "Not my most inspirational leader speech but…"
"Inspirational enough," Iron Fist cuts him off as he jumps off one of the large platforms of the Statue of Liberty and slams his fist into the ground, unbalancing everyone.
"We have the element of surprise," White Tiger lands beside us. "What's the plan?"
"You're asking me?" Spider-Man questions.
"You're in charge," I report. "Albert Webstien!"
"Right. Ok. First of all, they tend to fight alone." Spider-Man begins to break it down. "So, attack as a team. Use combo moves, and-"
"Destroy them!" Doc Ock shouts.
"New plan! Don't get destroyed!" Spider-Man quickly changes directions.
I hover for a minute and watch as Beatle shoots his mini-missiles after me.
This is going to be too easy. I can just blast them. Lead him away from everyone else and give them some space.
Well… I blast three more missiles, contorting myself to see them and taking my eyes off where I'm going.
Easy might be the wrong word.
I can keep him busy until someone else gets freed up.
Spider-Man's handling the two on one. They are talking; I can't get distracted by that.
"Idea formed! You guys listen to me!" Spider-Man shouts from the ground. "Switch opponents."
Tiger quickly moves and takes Electo by surprise. Iron Fist gets a running start and uses a nearby tree to push off and jump high enough to bring Beatle down to his level so he can fight him.
The second before Iron Fist connects I dodge Beatle's blast and hit Rhino with two beams, freeing up Power-Man to take care of Kraven.
Ok… Rhino's an unbalanced guy… he's not the brightest either. I fly around him quickly in circles; he spins in attempts to grab me.
I hit the brakes abruptly behind him and blast him straight in the face the minute he looks at me over his shoulder.
One more beam to the face.
Focus Nova.
When the light dies down I can see Rhino on the ground, not about to get up any time soon.
I look around to see the rest of the team have also finished their own baddies and are watching Spider-Man.
I cross my arms as Spider-Man pulls the mechanical arms from Doc Ock's suit.
"Not so sinister anymore, are you?" Spider-Man taunts.
The grunting takes us all off guard as we look over to see Lizard back on his feet.
I was certain he was knocked out already.
"I spoke too soon, huh?" Spider-Man asks.
Lizard rushes forward. Power-Man goes to grab him but get's shoved to the ground as Lizard turns to run the other way.
"Doc! Wait!" Spider-Man yells as we take off after him.
He's going for the sewer. He picks up the manhole cover and launches it at us to by himself some time.
"No watch them, call Fury and tell him what's up. I'm going after Connors." Spider-Man orders as he jumps down into the sewer.
"You know, he's very unhesitant to just go jumping into sewers, you'd think someone would notice." I cross my arms as we walk back over the downed villains.
"I'll call SHIELD." White Tiger says stepping off to the side.
Iron Fist just shakes his head. "He does what is necessary."
"But sewers?" I ask, contorting my face in disgust.
I look at as a SHEILD Transport circles the area as it lowers to land.
"I bet they were watching the JJJ broadcast and were waiting on us to finish up." I cross my arms as the Transport lands and agents rush out to take care of the knocked out bad guys.
"Well, it's their job." Ava sighs.
"Team, where's Spider-Man?" Coulson asked as he approached us.
"Sewers." I wrinkle my nose.
"He said he was going after the Lizard alone," White Tiger adds.
"He wanted us to make sure they stayed down." Iron Fist nods to the bad guys who were being restrained.
"So you let him go chasing after the Lizard with no tracker?" Coulson asks.
"It's not like he was going to give us much of a choice." Power-Man shrugged. "You know how he is when it comes to Connors."
Coulson let out a deep breath. "Nova, can you get down there and make sure Spider-Man gets back to base for debriefing?"
"Why me?"
"Because you can fly and don't have to walk thought sewer water." White Tiger reports.
"It's not a suggestion." Coulson rephrases. "Go get him."
"Yeah, sure, be right back." I sigh as I hover above the ground and fly head first into the sewer, illuminating the rotten pipes.
It's not silent down here, I can hear the splashing, yelling, and growling of what must be Web-Head and Connors, telling me exactly where to go.
"I won't stop trying to save you!" Web-Head's voice echoes
"Then you won't stop failing."
"Was that Connors?" I mutter to myself before bolting head and following where the voices had come from.
Only to arrive to see Spider-Man handing from a web, with another long web below him with nothing attached to the end.
