Marvelous Angel
Chapter Twenty-six
Part Two: Return of the Battle Angel
AN: Hey, it's another chapter and this one will have a special surprise regarding a certain character, with the events of the movie as well and this will be set in 1998.
New York City, New York, USA
New York exerts a significant impact upon global commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education and entertainment. The home of the United Nations Headquarters New York is an important center for international affairs and is widely deemed the cultural capital of the world.
As many as 800 languages are spoken in New York, making it the most linguistically diverse city in the world. Indeed this city would put ancient Babylon to shame in regards to how many people live here. With roughly over 8 million people living here.
A man in his sixties sitting in his car and waiting for his nephew to show up. Suddenly a shadow looms over him, and he turned to see a man pointing a gun at him.
"Get out of the car and give me the keys." Said the robber
"Okay I will get out." Said the man
The man was about to get out of the car, suddenly the robber is pounced on by someone wearing a cloak and with one right cross to the jaw the robber is knocked out cold on the ground. People who had seen this watched in amazement and the cops came to get the robber.
"Thanks for the help." Said the man
"No problem." Nodded the woman
Then after that the man's nephew came and wondered what had happened. He looked worried and noticed his uncle is talking to a cloaked figure.
"What happened" asked the nephew?
"Yeah I'm fine, thank to her." Said the uncle
"Thank you," smiled the nephew "Who are you."
The figure pulled the cloak back to show who it is and everyone gasped to know who it is. The legendary Battle angel Alita from the history books.
"And, whom might you be young man? Said Alita
"I," stutters the nephew "I'm...Pee"
"Right, nice to meet you Mister Pee." Said Alita "Well take care and stay safe."
The Battle angel nodded and walked away into the crowd of people. The uncle and the nephew looked at each other for a moment, only then the nephew got in the car.
"See Peter," said the uncle "She knows great power, comes great responsibility."
"I understand, uncle Ben" said Peter "I really do."
Uncle Ben starts up the car and then driving away, while Peter is thinking if Alita wasn't there to save uncle Ben. He would have been killed, and the words of his uncle still echoed in his mind. Yes, perhaps he will be a hero like Alita and not some wrestler. His resolved hardened to the point he will be a man, a spider-man.
The daily bugle
"What's your name again kid," asked the man?
"Peter Mister Jameson," said Parker
"Whatever," said Jameson,"What do you think of the headline Spider-man hero or menace, I'd say menace."
"He's just doing what is best for the city." Said Peter
"Then why does he wear a mask, he is hiding something. I don't trust people with masks."Said Jameson
"I believe he protects the identity of the ones he loves, that makes him a hero." Said Parker
"Ah, that's horseshit," said Jameson "Spider-man and the Battle angel are menaces."
"Johan, that is crossing the line," said Robertson "She fought side by side with Captain America during WW2, and done a number of heroic deeds,"
"Mister Jameson," said Peter "The Atlanta accords have kept the ocean waters clean and..."
"Blah, blah, blah," said Jameson "where does she go, who does she see, I smell scandal."
What about the pictures" asked Peter?
"The pictures are crap, give me something better like Alita kissing a guy." Said Jameson "I want to know what she is hiding like Spider-man."Then he paused "Wait I know the headlines read Alita and Spider-man criminal masterminds."
Johan Jameson turned to look out the window.
"I smell a great story in that headline." Said Jameson
"Uh, Joana," said Robertson
"The people see her as a hero, but she doesn't fool me. She is a con artist and a lair."Said Jameson
"Joana, uh," said Robertson
"Not now Robbie," said Jameson "If Alita was here right now, I'd give her a piece of my mind and..."
Suddenly there is a hard wack that sliced the desk of Jameson. He turned around to see the Battle angel standing there, with her eyes glaring at him coldly and she withdraws her sword, only for her to stand in front of Jameson.
"Make me wonder if your using yellow journalism as an excuse of how much a coward you really are." Said Alita
"Now look Missy," shudders Jameson. "It's freedom of the press."
"So what are you hiding J Joana Jameson," said Alita "I know it must be your Adolf Hiter mustache? Make people wonder what is behind it."
Alita grabbed Jameson's mustache and ripped it off of his upper lip and she tosses it out of the window.
"Now," said Alita "You will pay the man his money and a bonus for working hard. Unless you rather have your balls ripped out next."
"I" sighed Jameson "Of course."
"Any more bad press about me or Spider-man," said Alita "I might convince my God son to buy this two-bit paper."
"Right," nodded Jameson
"Come along Mister Parker," said Alita
"Sure," nodded Parker
They both walk out of the room as Jameson muttered I should change my pants I just soiled myself.
"Thanks again." Said Parker
"It's no problem," said Alita "I was planning on coming here anyway, take care."
Later on
The Goblin strikes, holding Mary Jane and a tram car full of children hostage on top the Queensboro Bridge. The Goblin tells Spider-Man to choose who he wants to save, and when Spider-Man refuses to choose, the Goblin drops his hostages. Spider-Man manages to save the people on the tram, but he missed in saving MJ.
Only for Mary Jane to be saved by Alita which she used her super sonic speed to run on the water and leap up to grab the woman, then to put her on the walkway of the bridge. Alita gave Spider-man the thumbs up.
"Oh, so the Battle angel is here," said Goblin "Join me and we can rule the world together"
"No," said Alita
Gobin was about to throw pumpkin bombs at Alita, but Spider-man used a web blast to blind him. The pumpkin bomb accidentally exploded causing the green goblin to be thrown back in mid-air, only for him to rush at Spider-man.
"I'll handle the people on the tram, you go get him." Said Alita
The Goblin then grabs Spider-Man and throws him into an abandoned building. Upon the rocky arrival, Green Goblin throws a pumpkin bomb into the building, crossing near Spider-Man and eventually exploding, thus subsequently injuring him and weakening his spider senses.
The Goblin then taunts him about how he denied their partnership before brutally beating on Spider-Man. Goblin savagely beats on him, despite his efforts to strike back.
Gobin gives extremely powerful punches to Spider-Man's mouth and cheek, giving him a jaw-jacking upper cut on the chin that sends him flying into the air and crashing into the ground, followed by more brutal punches to the face and a massive kick on the chest that sends Spider-Man flying into a wall.
However, the tables turn as the Goblin boasts of how he will later kill Mary Jane slowly, and an enraged Spider-Man clobbers him to the point of taking off his mask, revealing his true identity. Then one final blow to Goblins head ended it.
Bones fractured and shattered the skull of Norman Osborn. He lies dead where he is and Peter does some hard breathing before calming himself down. He is horrified at what he had done and Alita came in to check on them. She can see blood on his hands and tears rolling down his eyes.
"It's okay Peter," said Alita "You allowed your anger to get the best of you."
"Is this power a curse." Cried Peter
"No, it's what you have." Said Alita "Come let's go."
Peter couldn't stop sobbing, so Alita embraced him to calm himself down. However, he won't forget this anytime soon.
Two days later: Central park
Peter felt alone right now and has his costume in a bag, it's night time outside and he walks towards a trash can to simply do this. Throw the costume away for good and which he did.
The cover story was that Norman Osborn was killed by the Gobin, which Spider-man had a massive fight against the Gobin and won. Harry didn't hate Spider-man as he blamed the goblin for his father's death.
After the funeral Peter told uncle Ben what had happened and was given a lesson in a form of talk. Peter is still deciding to give up being Spider-man or continue to be him. As for him and Mary Jane they started dating.
Peter went to sit down at a park bench. Only he wasn't alone as a black male, wearing a trenchcoat and sporting an eye patch sat next to him.
"So, you're just going to give up." Said Fury
"I don't know what you mean." Said Parker
"Being Spider-man," said Fury "You feel sad in taking a life, because you let your anger get the best of you."
"Who are you," asked Parker?
"Nick Fury," said Fury "I knew your parents Peter, very good shield agents they were."
"Really," said Parker
"They died saving my life," said Fury "As responsible people."
"Like Uncle Ben says," said Parker "With great power, comes great responsibility."
"Got that right." Said Fury "Now get off your ass and go be Spider-man." He hands Peter the bag with the costume inside.
Watching in the background is Alita who then turned to walk away.
AN: Yeah, I made a change or two to the Spider-man film of 2002 and instead had it set in 1998. This Peter Parker is not the likeness of Tobie Magurie.
