Chapter 12: Brooklynn Bridge is falling down
Peter slept soundly, despite Ava occasionally nipping at him in her sleep, he awoke fully recharged and completely balanced. Last night seemed like a vivid nightmare, hey morning web head came Sam's bubbly greeting along with the lifting aroma of his Sam cakes, breakfast in bed? Did you suffer severe head trauma recently Peter joked reaching to grab the plate from Sam's hands. These aren't for you! Sam said pulling the plate away from Peter's reach, they're for Ava, She's still out like a light Peter replied softly turning his head to the beautiful women sleeping next to him. Any word on Harry? He asked rounding back to Sam sounding slightly aggravated, not yet but take it easy Parker you keep pushing yourself and you'll burn out Sam replied when he shows himself we'll take him out. Peter fell back into bed sighing irritably I don't like waiting around knowing he's out there putting people in danger to get to me, mhmmm will two shut up I'm trying to sleep here Ava groaned rolling over away from Peter and Sam's voices, maybe we should take this conversation away from here Sam whispered because if she wakes up she will kill us he said his voice slightly wavering in fear. That's a safe idea Peter agreed, I swear to god you two if you make me get out of this bed I'll wring your heads together and scratch your eyes out Ava growled, (chibi tiger repeatedly slams chibi spidey and Nova's heads together) Peter scurried out of bed and took off running with Sam neither wanted to press their luck with Ava this morning.
Look who decided to wake up finally Luke laughed sarcastically as Sam and Peter walked into the lounge, he and Eddie were sitting at the table munching down everything in sight. You guy's leave any food for the rest of us? Peter asked, Eddie slid a bowl of Reese puffs towards him chow down bro he said stuffing his face, so are we going to discuss what Parker did to Fury last night? Asked Sam trying to hold back a snicker, Peter looked from Sam to Luke and back then shrugged he got what he deserved nothing more to say Peter stated, Luke's eyes nearly jumped out of his head when he heard Peter say that, dude you pretty much broke Fury last night Sam interjected, he brought it on himself Peter replied showing no remorse of his actions, same as carnage did, as will Goblin he finished, Speaking of Carnage questioned Luke did anyone else notice that venom referred to itself as we but Carnage said I? He asked, yeah I did Sam replied that was weird. I think I figured that one out Peter said everyone else the symbiotes possessed have all been sound of mind right? Well Rafter is insane and can't process the second beings thought waves, he believed it was just him in a suit.
The guys all looked at Peter with blank stares, just a thought Peter added resuming eating his cereal, morning everybody sang M.J happily as she walked in, everybody sleep ok she cooed shooting Sam a quick glance, not greatly said Eddie, I was good laughed Luke watching Sam turn red, Peter? M.J asked, I slept fine M.J Peter replied with smile, so how long has Ava been pregnant? And how come I wasn't told, we've been friends forever Peter and you couldn't even tell me you were going to be a dad! She snapped at him, whoa, hey now I didn't find out until a few days ago when we were in japan he snapped back defensively, and even then you couldn't tell us? Demanded Sam jumping in on the argument, are you freaking kidding me! Peter growled we were a bit pretty occupied with the whole demons and twisted Koga situation! Oh right Sam replied dumbly.
Marry Jane was about to voice another opinion when the alarm rang throughout the tri-carrier, Parker assemble your team and report to the briefing room came Coulson's voice over the speakers, they're playing our song said Peter whipping out of the room, he's pretty quick isn't he Eddie laughed.
Peter entered the briefing room dressed as Spiderman, please tell me you found Goblin he asked enthusiastically, Coulson nodded he's released a video, there's no sound but the video makes his point pretty clear, The Hob Goblin was terrorizing innocent people on the Brooklynn Bridge, the camera was shaky but stable enough to make out several bombs planted along the support columns, he's going to blow Brooklynn bridge? Choked Nova, that's a lot of innocent lives Power-man added I mean how are we supposed to stop him save the people and defuse the bombs? We're not Spiderman replied Nova's going to rescue the people, you're going to stop the bombs and I'll take harry he finished, no way! Nova snapped last time he nearly drowned you at the bottom of the Hudson you're not taking him on alone again! I won't be alone Spiderman growled once you're done with the civilians and bombs you come and back me up he finished.
The guys took off across the city Spiderman on his spider cycle, power-man on his power bike and Nova flying overhead, web head is there even areal plan here? Or are you just making this up as you go along as usual? Asked Nova, were winging it bucket head Spiderman said, we always wing it man groaned Power-man, we're going to die today Nova sobbed sarcastically, where's the faith Spiderman pleaded, back in japan where you left your rational thinking! Nova snapped, ouch Spiderman protested but fair enough.
The guys sped up as Brooklynn Bridge came into view, Goblin was standing on the highest cross member overlooking the bridge, and people were still trapped in their cars, Nova get them out! Spiderman ordered, on it! Nova shot back flying down the street level, Power-man get those bombs and drown them! Power-man nodded and zoomed of for the columns under the bridge.
Spiderman catapulted himself from his bike and upwards to Goblins position, Harry! He roared flying directly at him, Hob Goblin turned to the source of the scream and was met by a devastating right cross from the flying Spiderman, Goblin sailed through the air ricocheting off the support cable face planting into the ground. Nice of you to show up Pete he growled pushing himself upright, I knew you couldn't resist playing the hero he snickered.
Give yourself up now Harry and maybe SHEILD will show leniency he growled his temper starting to flare, nah killing you sounds like a better plan to me Goblin retorted. Have it your way Spiderman said charging the Hob Goblin.
The two began battling it out, Spiderman throwing a barrage of punches and the odd timed round house kick, launching Goblin backwards, Goblin rose back up wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, ha-ha-ha you're not pulling your punches this time Peter have I done something to upset you so badly? He mocked, oh wait by now you would have learned my new venoms name he scoffed how is Eddie? Spiderman thrusted his knee into Goblins ribs, a lot better than your father Spiderman retorted scornfully, Goblins eyes sunk into his head and a chilling scowl cracked his face, his lips began twitching in anger I'll kill you! He roared charging Spiderman the two free fell from the cross member down to the street level. They landed with an earth shaking crash Spiderman was sprawled out over the roof of a taxi, Goblin was sunk in a deep crater no less than a foot away from him, Spiderman called for his partners desperately hoping they were coming to help him soon, guys progress report he groaned in pain,
12 people saved 8 more left came Nova's response, having some trouble with these bombs Power-man panicked.
Spiderman rolled off the crushed taxi dropping to the asphalt, great nothing's going our way today he groaned standing up, you slippery bastard Goblin hissed climbing out of his crater, Spiderman felt his spirit drop you just won't stay down will you! Spiderman whined, Goblin leapt at him but missed as Spiderman jumped over him zipping up off the street and on to the support cables.
Maybe if I stay away long enough the guys can finish up and help out quicker he said out loud to himself, He took off running leading Goblin farther away from Nova and the civilians he ran as fast as could with hob goblin on his heels, What's the matter Pete to scared to fight me without your team? Goblin taunted, Spiderman whipped around as he jumped off the cable shooting his impact webs back at Goblin distracting him long enough for Spiderman to stick a web to him and pull him down towards the water. But Goblin didn't fall, instead he called his glider in to catch him, Goblin came flying back after him blades springing out from the front of his glider, not good! Spiderman gasped taking off a full swing, goblin began throwing his pumpkin bombs and blades as a means to bring Spiderman down.
(You know what, I really hate those things) Spiderman began launching himself into a series of acrobatic maneuvers trying to dodge the pumpkin weapons, GUYS! I could use some good news right about now! He yelled. Civilians are safe Nova said, GET OFF THE BRIDGE! Power-man screamed the one bomb had a failsafe as soon as I touched it the timer jumped down to seconds! Really not going my way today Spiderman pouted zip lining his way off the bridge, Goblin slammed into him and the two began a chaotic spin towards a vacant roof top as the bomb blew and the bridge began collapsing.
Power-man and Nova ended up scattered across the road, Power-man was covered in asphalt dust and gravel but he was still ok, Nova you alive buddy? He called over, Nova began shifting around uh I'm feeling pretty banged up but I'm ok he choked oh man dude I dented my helmet he complained feeling the concaved part of his helmet, hey where's web head and goblin? He asked as he franticly looking around the destruction, webs come in buddy Power-man called into his communicator but he got was a screen of static, webs status report! He cried, silence set in as the two exchanged worried glances, guys? guys come in came a cracking call from their communicators, dude where the hell are you? Asked Nova, Harry and crash landed somewhere in… I think its china town Spiderman said, how did he end up in china town? Asked a confused Nova, I could use some back up here guys! Their communicators screamed, we better go after him Power-man suggested.
Spiderman searched high and low for Harry with poor results, I don't think I'm lucky enough for that crash to have knocked him out he said out loud, he felt pulsing pain throbbing along the side of his body with each step the pain seemed to worsen, ( I don't know about you guys but I'm getting sick of aerial crashes). Come on Harry show yourself he growled leaning over the edge of the roof top to see Goblins glider broken into multiple pieces, (chibi spidey dropped on to Spidermans shoulder, is that a good or bad sign? He asked) "Spidey Sense" Spiderman back flipped as a giant green fist swung through the air where he was standing. Guess you're ready to go again Goblin taunted turning back to face him. Spiderman secured his footing as he readied himself for the next round.
