Chapter 17
Earlier
In a formerly abandoned warehouse, workers move crates of tech into place to establish the temporary base of operations. Phineas Mason, also known as the Tinkerer, yells at some of the workers who just dropped a case.
"You idiots! Do you have any idea how sensitive this equipment is?"
"Sorry Tinkerer it slipped my hands." The gruff looking brute answers.
Phineas pinches the bridge of his nose, "I told Toomes we should've invested with thugs that actually have brain cells."
He continues to grumble as he gets to his work bench, a modified rifle carefully laid open with pulsing energy exposed. He grabs a tool and places the protective covering over the purple light and secures it in place. He then holds the rifle in hand, getting into firing position to see how it feels. He glances at the worker who ahd dropped the case from before and takes aim until the hum of an advanced aerial suit interrupts his attempt and the figure with expansive metal wings descends to a platform, slowing at the last minute before touching ground. The wings are placed in a holder that relieves the wearer of its weight as he steps out of the exoskeleton like suit. Green helmet still intact.
Adrian Toomes grimaces as he steps down the platform meeting Tinkerer at ground level. "How'd it go?"
"I don't like him. I don't like this."
"We already owe too much to Osborn we couldn't say no to—"
"You think I don't know that?!" He barks at his partner. "It was difficult enough to keep our operation under the radar with his help back in the states but here?! Someone is gonna go down regardless of how well the plan goes. IF it goes well at all. And after meeting with the guy Osborn has been so kind to loan to us," His voice dripping with sarcasm, " see this going belly up pretty quickly."
Phineas slams a wrench on the table, the resounding sound causing a pause in the work flow before continuing after one look at the piercing glare Toomes is famous for. "Look, I'm just as nervous as you are-"
"Oh really? Because last I remember, despite the small gap between our intellect I'm the only one with the brass to go out and do the hard labor." Adrian spat at his 'partner.'
Mason's eye twitches as the need to drop Adrian down a peg increases but he'll be the bigger man. "You know as well as I do that I do my best work here."
"Tch. Of course."
"Adrian, I'll admit, this is insanely risky. But isn't it always in our line of work? My intel says that the pro heroes have a small window between their shifts and territory that'll allow us to hit the convoy in the middle of the Rainbow Bridge. If we're quick enough, we'll be able to get in, get the goods, and get out before they're able to send a word out. And with the upgrades I've made, it's damn near a sure thing!"
Adrian crosses his arms, "What about the big guy? All Might? We all know that he can and will randomly appear just about anywhere!"
Mason scoffs, "Haven't you heard? There's been rumors. He isn't as active as he was before, I've even calculated through footage and news reports that through any given day, altogether he's only active for about 3 hours per day. Today already those 3 hours are up and from what I've heard through the grapevine, he's not as strong either. We can do this! And even better, we can embarrass Stark in the process."
A fire of anger burns brightly within Toomes chest as he hears the name of the billionaire, pure hatred fueling his being. "Fine. Tell the Enforcers to get ready."
Normally Toomes isn't one to attack any shipment this close to a major city, but if there's one thing he can trust, it's Phineas Mason's intel. He doesn't know how he does it, but the man can always get just the right information that'll allow them to get any job done, 9 times out of 10, without tipping off any pro hero. And even when they do, The Enforcers prove their worth by beating them down before they can have a chance to call for back up. Vulture is high in the sky at the moment, watching over the truck holding the rest of his team as they close in on their target. His thumb runs over the device on his belt that's jamming the comms and surveillance systems of the bridge and convoy holding all of Starks tech. He does so to comfort himself mostly, prideful of his creation for never failing.
"Vulture we're in position."
"Good." He glances to his right where the man, going only by The Beetle, silently flies next to him. He glares inside his mask. He doesn't trust this man, even less considering Norman deemed it necessary for him to be present. As if Adrian was incapable of succeeding! They're all the same, rich and powerful egoists who step on the throats of those who built the foundation of their empires! That was neither here nor there though. For now Stark is the one who deserves his Ire and Osborn is useful at the moment.
Deciding to focus on the mission, toomes gives them the orders. "get started."
The truck holding the team veers to the left and over takes the vehicles holding Stark tech. "What an asshole!" The driver curses as the Truck speedily cuts directly in front of him.
He gasps as the door is lifted open and a massive man in some type of armor leaps out and on top of his truck. The vehicle shakes from the crushing weight. Ox steps towards the center of the caboose and drops four cubes that position themselves into an rectangular shape. The glow bright orange and create a glowing portal through the roof. Ricochet leaps onto the truck as well and assists Ox in securing as much tech as possible to be lifted out by vulture.
Satisfied with the first batch they signal Adrian that it's ready. "Dropping down." He notifies them and rapidly plummets to the earth, his wings extending to slow his descent once he gets close enough for them to attach the gear to his suit.
Unbeknownst to him, The Beetle presses a button in his gauntlet that causes the jamming device used by Vulture to fry. Adrian curses as he watches the device suddenly combust and throws it off him. Inside the convoy, the Driver is frantically pressing the alert button that hasn't been responding until now.
"Finally!" He activates it.
"This is the emergency line, what's your situation?"
"The convoy is under attack!"
Adrian curses angrily, "Bad news gentlemen, jamming device is down. I suspect we'll have company soon!"
"What's the plan then boss?"
"We finish this, we already have a enough Tech to make this job worthwhile. We leave now and we'll have enough time to escape." He orders them.
Herman, who's driving their getaway vehicle notes, "Scanner says there's already cops at the end of this bridge on their way to meet us halfway!"
Ricochet slams his fists on the side of the caboose, "Dammit, isn't there anyway to slow them down?!"
Before Adrian has a chance to think of something, Beetle dives down from above and flies towards the police officers that are en route. The partner sees the flying armored man and bumps the driver lightly, "You see this?"
"Yea what the—"
Beetle blasts the wheels off the front of the cruiser, flipping the car into the air and into some of the on coming traffic. The cars on both sides begin screeching to a halt as Beetle fires randomly at the traffic. Adrian's blood pressure rises and the need to tear out his hair becomes too great, "What the fuck is he doing?!"
Herman cackles, "I don't know but I like his style!"
"Oh I'm glad you do, I wonder for how long though since now the entire city is probably aware of our presence and every Pro hero from here all the way to France is going to join in soon!"
"Come on boss, live a little, sides we still got time to escape. Just gotta help ol beetle slow em down."
Herman gets the thug sitting next to him to take over as a driver and he climbs onto the roof of his car. He has his helmet form over his face and charges his gauntlets, "Let's get the show goin!"
He fries a blast into the bridge ahead of them, shaking the entire structure and causing an oil tanker to crash and explode. "Idiots, I'm working with idiots!" Toomes curses but flies down anyway to salvage the situation however he can.
He lands on the caboose ordering Ox to start handing him the tech. Then he hears the familiar sound of the Ironman suit flying.
"Stark." He growls with venom.
But suddenly a glob of web attaches itself to the crate holding the stolen tech and is yanked out of Ox's hands and a kid wearing some type of red and blue onsie perches himself on a nearby vehicle. "Hey didn't your mother ever teach you that stealing is wrong?"
Vulture growls and starts flying at the teen but Ironman blasts him off course. "What's the plan Mr Stark?"
"Just hang back and let me deal with this kid, do what you can to escort anyone to safety!"
"But I can help!"
"You are, by staying out of the action for now. Got it? Good!"
Tony continues to battle with Vulture as well as taking on the rest of the enforcers, with Beetle hanging back on his own for now, allowing the battle to happen.
Peter grumbles to himself but does what he's told as he comes across a buss full of people that was pinned by a semi truck against the railing of the bridge. They're screaming for help and Peter immediately goes to their aid, pulling the semi truck away from the bus and ripping the door off its hinges, "Rush hour has always been a nightmare but this takes it to a whole new level, know what I mean?"
The civilians all clamber out the bus and starting heading towards the direction of safety but his Spider sense tingles and he grabs the last civilian and leaps out the way of a shock blast the knocks the bus off the bridge.
Peter gently drops the citizen on their feet before turning to his attacker, a man dressed in an advanced battle suit colored black and yellow with a mask that reminds Peter of a Hornet. "Oh a new villain! Wait wait wait don't tell me your super special code name let me think… is it yellowjacket?!"
"Names Shocker punk!" He dramatically activates his gauntlets.
Peter makes a sound of disappointment, "Shocker? Seriously? Dude I'm like making a mental list of so many better alternatives and yet Shocker is seriously the one you go with?"
Shocker uses his blasts to fling him forward in a similar manner to Bakugo and Peter flips out the way but Shocker has better reflexes than he anticipated as he throws his arm back and shoots Spider-man in the chest, painfully crashing him against another truck. Peter falls to the ground in pain. "Wow that hurt, color me shocked! Get it?"
"I'm gonna squash you like a bug!"
He points his gauntlet at Peter again but Peter is ready and web yanks himself out the way, the truck behind him being demolished by the force. Peter webs up a piece of debris in air next to him and spins with his momentum, throwing the piece directly into shocker who blasts it out the way but realizes too late it was only a means to distract him as Spider-Man appears behind it, clocking him in the mask with a hard punch but he rolls with the momentum and rears both arms back and shoots them forward. The double blasts was avoided by the web head as he jumps into a split, still feeling the vibrations in the air and he web yanks himself into the yellow suited villain but suddenly Ricochet appears and kicks Spider-Man off course, tumbling the kid into the ground. He rubs his head, "And what do they call you, Grasshopper?"
"Ricochet!" And he bounces off multiple surfaces to blitz Peter, who's ready.
"See now that's a good codename!"
Peter leaps over him and catches him by the collar but Ox appears and grabs Peter in his massive hand and smashes him to the ground repeatedly before throwing him into the crashed cars ahead. Peter groans. "Who are you guys?"
"We're the Enforcers bug." Shocker declares proudly, his gauntleted hands resting on his hips as the two stand on either side of him. "Last people you'll ever meet."
"Well, ahem, help?"
"Way ahead of ya kid!"
Ironman appears and blasts the villains apart. He lands next to Ricochet who immediately tries to put distance between the two but Ironman uses his suit to calculate his trajectory and shoots a disk at his predicted landing spot. Ricochet lands directly above it and wires explode out from the disk and wraps itself around the fast villain, immobilizing him. Ox tries to rush Ironman but he side steps hip and let's out a flash from his repulsor, blinding the massive man and then blasting him in the face with both feet, knocking him down.
"… He made that look so easy!"
"Called experience kid. I thought I told you to stay out of the fight?"
"They attacked me when I was helping people off the bus!" Peter says in his defense.
"Right, yea that does happen, sorry kid!"
Tony then turns and shoots his repulsors in a steady stream, meeting shockers blasts head on. "Shockwaves? That's cute." He then bumps up the energy output of his rays and knocks Shocker off his feet.
Shultz struggles to get back up and Ironman arms himself, pointing his weapons at the thief. "Ready to give up?"
"Not after having distracted you successfully."
Ironman's eyes widen as he's flung into the air by an explosion set off at his feet by The Beetle who tackles Ironman mid air and plant's a small EMP device onto his armor. Tony yells as his armor's systems are momentarily fried to which Beetle takes advantage of it by pummeling the Billionaire as his suit reboots. Vulture appears with a two handed device that captures cars in a green energy field and lifts them into the air like their nothing. He throws it to the Armored Avenger. But thankfully his suit reboots and he's able to dodge it. Peter sees a chance and webs up vulture. "I got him! I got him!"
"Kid don't grab onto fliers you can't fly!"
"Huh?"
"Let's go for a ride son!" Vulture yells and he blasts into the air, a screaming Peter dangling behind him for dear life.
"WHOOOOAAAAA!"
"You bit off more than you can chew youngster!" Vulture yells as he dives down to the bridge.
"'Youngster?' Geez how old ARE you?!"
"Old enough to have plenty of tricks to teach you!"
Peter quickly lets go of his webline and slides onto the bridge under a semi truck and leaps into the air directly in front of Vulture and he begins to punch his helmet, "Well I've got a trick to teach you! It's called how to get your ass kicked 101! A trick I'm well versed in!"
In between one of the punches, Peter attaches a small spider like device inside the collar of the Vultures suit, blinking red as he let's go before continuing with his assault.
Each punch causes Vulture to veer more and more uncontrollably, they pair end up crashing into a sign on the bridge and tumble and bounce off the cars on the street. Vultures anti gravity gun slides to the ground out of his grasp and Peter web yanks it towards him just before the villain can grab it. Vulture growls and hovers into the air and blitz Peter who webs his face and yanks him to the ground, kicking him just before he meets it but Vulture uses his wings to cut the line and actually shoots blades out from his wings. Peter yelps and dodges them as best he can then leaps into the air and webs one up and throws it back to Vulture who knocks it out the way and does a spin with his wings extended, knocking the wind out of Peter as he tried to close in.
Vulture drops down and grabs the anti gravity gun from the ground. "Time to end this!"
He charges the weapon but Peter yelps, "oh no you don't!"
And web zips towards Vulture. Ironman is nearby and his suit analyzes the weapon, his eyes widening as he sees the results and he tries to warn Peter, "Wait kid don't!"
But he's too late as Peter throws a punch, destroying the weapon, and the resulting blasts knocks the both of them back while the escaping energy burns through the bridge in multiple rays, comprising the structure of the entire landmark. The rays finally die down and moments of silence pass. Then the bridge starts to shake and some of the tensile wires begin to snap. "Oh god, Oh no!"
Vulture rises from where he landed and Peter looks at him helplessly. Vulture growls, "This was your doing!" And flies away.
Peter almost falls to his feet if it weren't for his adhesive capabilities as the bridge begins to destabilize more and more. Ironman has no choice but to abandon the battle and try to salvage the bridge as best he can. But large sections were already breaking apart and falling. Peter feels like crying as he sees civilians in the distance trying to escape, with cracks forming under their feet. This, this was all his fault!
Ironman flies below the bridge with multiple circular drones flying off his armor and attaching themselves to every structurally weak area and start blasting their thrusters with him, providing a relief of stress and slowly the bridges crumbling. Peter leaps into action, I gotta help these people get to safety!
A bus was slowly falling back as a big chunk of the bridge had broken off underneath its back wheels. Peter lands ahead of it and shoots a webline, halting its fall. "Everyone out of the bus now!"
The civilians quickly file but the bumper that's attached to the web breaks off just before the bus driver, who was last, could get out. Peter vaults forward, breaking through the glass and catching the bus driver in his arms. He then bursts out the other end and swings out the way and back to safety with the bus driver in hand.
"Thank you!"
But Peter has no time to reply. As the middle of the bridge begins to break apart and Peter quickly dives down and using his downward momentum, web swings up high into the air. "Come on Peter you got this! You got this you got this you got this!"
He fires off web globs after web globs that explode outward and attach themselves to both sides of the bridge. Swinging in between the separating bridge points he glides in the air on his back as he fires web line after web line, tumbling and weaving from one end to the other to attach more and more webs to connecting the severed sides as he dodges flames and falling vehicles. He continues until the web cartridges as both empty and are replaced with new ones on his web shooters carousel. Landing on one side of the bridge. He quickly scans the destruction and sees a woman trapped in her car. He leaps next to it and yelps as the ground destabilizes, cracking under the car and his feet. "Sorry about this!"
He grips the door and rips it off, throwing it behind him. The ground begins to break and fall and he quickly scoops her into his arms and starts leaping up, with the section of the bridge he was standing on falling and breaking. In a similar fashion as Ricochet, he bounces off the falling debris and cars until he finally gets to stable ground. Crying the woman scoops him into a tight hug, "Thank you! Thank you! You saved my life!"
Peter wants to deny it, it was his fault she even needed to be saved but the sounds of his webs snapping catches his attention. More and more threads snap. "oh no! No no no! Please NO!"
The bridge groans as it continues to break the hold the webs have on them and Peter leaps in the gap desperately, "NOOOOO!"
And catches two web strands that had snapped, using his mighty spider strength to hold the bridge together himself.
His arms are outstretched, pulling with all his might even as it feels like both arms are gonna be torn out from their sockets. I can't let anyone die! Blacks spots start to dance in his vision and his throat feels horse from his screaming. He tightens his grip as much as possible even more as He feels the webs begin to weaken, threatening to snap at any moment.
Almost like a miracle, the pressure stops. Peter dazily feels the bridge begin to come together and he hangs on the slackening webs. Ironman flies under and catches him as he lets go, lifting the both of them into the air. The two land on the now stable bridge, with Peter finding some Pro heroes at work, one of them being Cementoss who's using his quirk to fix the bridge's structure to prevent it from falling as well as making clear pathways for civilians and authorities alike to make it through. Peter sits on his butt and looks up to Tony guiltily. "Am I in trouble?"
A few hours later
Peter throws his mask to the ground as they enter Tony's lab, said Scientist locks the door behind him as he steps out of his armor. He scowls as he gazes at Peter.
Peter crosses his arms and tries to keep a brave face as he meets Tony's gaze, "So what, are you gonna tell me that I messed up? Cause I already know that!"
"Oh I do know you know that kid. I just hope you know just how badly!"
Peter grips his hair and makes a noise of frustration, "I do ok!? I do! I already know a lot of people almost died because of me and because of me you had to let them go!"
Tony runs a hand through his hair, "Kid I'm not angry with you I'm just disappointed ok."
"God I'd rather you just be disappointed with me."
"I can change that right now!" He warns. Wisely Peter stays quiet. "Kid the reason why I told you to just focus on helping civilians is because you're still not ready to fight villains on your own."
Offended Peter retorts, "I did that already at USJ and I handled myself good!"
"You almost died!" Tony yells.
Peter whispers back, "A-Almost."
Tony rubs his eyes roughly, "kid, this isn't a joke! 'Almost' shouldn't even be in the equation. I know that that wasn't your fault, it was a surprise all around but on the bridge, I know your mask has the same scanning capabilities as mine. You should've taken a chance to analyze his weapon before recklessly destroying it! It took me less than a second to realize that that anti gravity gun was using an unstable form anti graviton particles. Likely stolen from some other place that was supposed to be dumping it safely. Any rupture to its casing would cause devastation, you could've killed yourself by just attacking!"
"I'm sorry ok!? I wasn't thinking I was just doing what other heroes do! I… I was trying to do what you would do."
Tony recoils, seeing himself in Peter. He remembers that that was exactly how he reacted when he was harshly scolded by his own father in his younger days. Goddammit, I'm sounding too much like the old bastard for comfort. Gotta change this up.
"Peter… (sigh) you're not other heroes though. And you're definitely not me." He whispers to himself, "Thank god."
"Look kid. You made a mistake, pretty big one not gonna lie. So did I because I throw you in there with me I mean what else was gonna happen… But you did a great job fixing it afterwards. You saved a lot of people from dying and kept the bridge together long enough for me and others to fix it. But—I—You-God I'm really new to this whole mentoring thing!"
He rubs his head as he thinks of what to say, seeing that he's making Peter more and more upset. "Peter, I just want you to not be so reckless. Take it from a guy who's famous for it, it'll only make things worse for you and even worse for the people around you."
He curses himself as that wasn't what he wanted to say and it still didn't do anything to really help the teen. He sighs, desperately searching for some way to salvage the situation when he gets a call. He answers it, says a few words and ends the call. "Look I… gotta go. I'll have one of my assistants direct you to where you'll be sleeping. It's late get some rest alright?"
Peter nods glumly. Tony has so much more to say to Peter but with how it's all come out so far, he doesn't feel confident in that it'll turn anything positive. So he leaves after awkwardly saying goodbye.
Adrian Toomes stomps out of his suit and walks down the stairs to the platform, pacing angrily. "Idiots… Idiots!" He throws his helmet away, knocking a few things off the table it hits.
Tinkerer glances up from his work bench for a barely second before continuing on with his work. "Tonight's escapades wasn't fruitful I presume?"
"Are you really going to mock me right now?! It's a miracle any of us escaped at all today! It's only thanks to that blubbering insect that we managed to have an opportunity of escape!"
"ah yes, I saw it on the news. A Spider child I believe. He gave you quite the trouble." He smirks smugly.
Adrian snarls, "He's nothing. He's lucky I wasn't even trying!"
"Oh I'm sure." Phineas mumbles.
Adrian slams his hands down in the table, "Thanks to that Beetle, we ended up drawing the attention of Stark of all people and with Shultz riling things up it now brought too much heat to us! We have to lay low."
Phineas places the tools on his bench and leans his head on his interlaced fingers, "We still need to pull off a job. The big one is still on the table."
"What the Arc Reactors? There's no way we can pull it off! Forget it!"
Adrian stomps away while Mason calls out after him, "Options are limited and so is time, think on it friend!"
Mason gets no reply as Adrian leaves. A few moments pass before he says to the empty space. "There's no one else around, you don't have to hide."
The Beetle materializes in front of his work bench. His voice sounds digital and raspy as he finally speaks, "Will he still go for it?"
"I know Toomes, if there's one thing that will blind his intellect aside from his arrogance it's his hatred for Tony Stark. No matter how risky this job may be, if there's anyway for him to spit on the Stark name he'll take it."
"I'm surprised he doesn't suspect you had a hand in todays failure."
Tinkerer smiles as he places on his goggles, "Despite his cautiousness he did the one thing anyone in this business should never do."
"Which is?"
"he developed a trust for me. Don't worry, sooner or later he'll come around. And when he takes the big one, Stark will follow with the child not far behind. You'll get him then."
"And once he's in our grasp Osborn will wire you the rest of your pay."
Mason grins, "I do enjoy doing business with such colorful characters!"
The next day
Tony goes to Peter's room his fist ready to knock. What should he say? Is Peter still upset? Who am I kidding of course he is. Why wouldn't he? I flipped out and blew up on him when he least needed it. What kinda mentor am i? Should I leave him alone for a while? No I should help him through this. OR will I be suffocating him? OR or or or, GAH! Kids are so complicated! Maybe I should give him some space, that's what worked for me, I guess.
He knocks on the door, and after a few sounds of shuffling Peter opens it. He has bags under his eyes, either from a lack of sleep or crying Tony can't tell. "hey kid, Look I'm really sorry about last night alright? I should've handled that better."
"It's not your fault Mr Stark." The teen answers quietly.
"Yea it is. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know I have a few meetings to get to today. Tonight, we'll do things again, small scale this time though. Training wheels if you will."
Peter nods half heartedly. Tony tries to say something else but nothing comes out. He sighs in defeat, "See ya in a bit kid. I'll call you when it's time."
"yea." Peter whispers and closes the door.
He sinks to the ground and hangs his head in between his knees. He spent most of the night wallowing in self pity. He wanted to do things right, make Tony proud but he ended up making things worse. Some hero I'm turning out to be. His phone vibrates and e checks the caller ID. Aunt May. She's been calling him non stop. He's felt too ashamed to answer her though, only sending a text to say that he's ok but nothing after. I can't push her away, not Aunt May.
He steels him self with a calming breath in and answers the phone, "Hey Aunt May."
"PETER! Oh my god I've been trying to get a hold of you since yesterday! Why haven't you answered!? I was worried sick! You were in the middle of a battle and the bridge was collapsing and you were holding it together by yourself?!—"
"It was my fault."
She stops her rant, hearing the sad tone of her nephew. "Peter what?"
"It was my fault, I damaged the wing guys weapon and it tore apart the bridge. Those people were in danger because of me." He explains, his eyes watering because of his guilt.
"oh Peter."
"I wanted to help May I did! But, all I did was make everything worse. I might've even screwed things up with Tony."
"Was he angry?"
"No but he was disappointed. I could tell. (Scoff) who wouldn't be? First day on my internship and I screw up this bad. Bet you're disappointed in me too."
"Peter." She says seriously, "There is nothing you could do that would ever make me disappointed in you, or stop loving you. Nothing. Sure you can be reckless sometimes and sometimes you make me worry. But you always make me proud."
"Even when I fail?"
"Even then."
"I tried May, I tired to be like Ironman like All Might!"
"Peter you'll never make it in life if all you do is try to be like someone else. The only way you can make it, is if you succeed in being who you are."
Peter smiles ruefully, "What if I fail with that too?"
"Do what you always do, try again. That's one of your best traits Peter. You always keep trying and believe it or not, that's what your Uncle believed made a hero. Someone who doesn't give up."
And like that, it felt like something opened up in Peter, like he could breath again. He can't stay in his room afraid to face the world, he has to go out and try. "I really love you Aunt May."
"I love you too baby boy." She sends him a kiss through the phone and ends the call.
Peter stands determined to make up for his mistake when his phone pings. Huh? My spider tracer, it's on! He remembers he had planted it on Vulture during the fight, even though he has yet to test it out for more than 20 feet, it seems to be working well, telling him exactly where Vulture is hiding. I should call Mr stark And let him know!
He does so, multiple times but each time the call goes to voice mail. Dammit what should I do?... Maybe… No! No! Think this through! You can't just go in and try to take them all on by yourself! That's stupid and really reckless!... But what if I sneak in? Get some intel, maybe I can find out what they're gonna do next? Yea! I can slip in and out no problem and just tell Tony what I found out! Satisfied, he opens his bag and takes out the suit he wore yesterday… that's pretty much shredded. "I can't go out like this!... Hmm, wonder if I still have access to the fabrication machine?"
Authors Note: And there's the beginning of Peter's internship! This vulture PErsonality is based on Spectacular spiderman vulture but with some influence from MCU vulture. It'll be explored more in the next chapter. But their costumes are based on Spiderman PS4 designs. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed the update and Peter will be getting his rematch with the enforcers soon enough! Also i hope it wasn't too jarring to see Tony react this way. I wanted to show how his parental instincts kicked in pretty strongly and, for a guy who's emotionally constipated and was raised by an equally emotionally constipated man that basically left him without a proper template for raising a child. He's gonna have trouble with the mentoring thing too but, like PEter will grow as well.
InterfaceLoading: Thank you and thanks for the heads up i fixed it as soon as i could!
superjoeyf721: I know i already answered you before but i'll answer again fro anyone else who's curious, but i had already stated that the Fantastic four won't be making an appearance in my story but people were still asking and pushing for them to be added so i decided to give a definitive answer. They had their start 50 years prior and are now completely retired. And The X men were active during the dawn of the quirk age. Love all the casting choices and the cloudburst was a reference to Arkham Knight... and also the disperse machine from Amazing Spiderman that i forgot the name to so i went with cloudburst XD
AnimeKing6: Thank you, hopefully this chapter was better, next will be more exciting!
Guest: We'll see!
spider of the leaf: Eh can't always be winners still glad you enjoyed it somewhat hopefully this one was better. Some good guesses you made though but Stain is too good a character on his own for me to venomize. At leasrt with how i envisioned the story i'm sure there are other writers who can handle it effectively. I understand your complaint for MHA having things happen one after another although I feel like it's a good and bad thing. Good cause it helps the characters grow into the hero role quicker and adapt. Bad cause it does get a bit much but then again that's what happens to heroes in general so i guess it's ok. And you're right, those three do have a way of taking on Venom but i have that in consideration for what's to come!
fanalis1995: Thank you! And yea despite PEter's love for taking down bad guys, he also will do what he can to help them, even if it's to try and convince them to give up the life of crime, one of the first thing he tries to offer any villain is normally some help for them to rehabilitate. Maybe he'll have some success maybe he won't in the future!
Dasgun: 0_0
Big Red 1215: Lol like how he reacted to mt lady, still finds her hot but also thinks shes a demon XD can't comment any further though on the Mirko aspect
Chirs: Oh yea Peter will definitely have some calls with momo and thanks lol, as i was writing the Authors note i remember how the bifrost was also called the rainbow bridge and i wanted to nip that in the bud as soon as i could lol
Stan 18 Lee: honestly ben diskin might actually fit since i think he kinda sounds close enough to the dub voice actor for the one i've chosen to be venom. Although for me Josh Keaton will always be THE spiderman voice even if i grew up watching TAS and the Amazing friends. Smythes will show up later on mcuh later, 2017 spiderman is a slow process cause it's jsut not connecting for me as much as i'd like but im still gonna finish it cause i'm pretty stubbiorn and don't drop shows that easily.
TheGreatGodzilla: For now Momo and Itsuka will still go through their normal internships but in the future things will change for them cause i'm adding a different character to be a mentor for Momo before Midnight, or might replace her in general, haven't decided yet. And you're right, Heroes should still have their own side jobs, i mean there's so many other ways to help the world aside from knocking heads and putting out fires. Hell even Present Mic has his own podcast, which i would hoenstly like a spin off of jsut heroes having conversations like that. imagine them ranting about the public lol I mean im still planning on PEter having an actual job in the future same with others in the class.
Trust me in general it's gonna be hard for PEter to get their approval, got a few scenarios thought up. I really wasn't aware of the intergalactic Wakandan empire, that's really cool! I wasn't really planning on involving outer space much except for a possible visit from the guardians of the galaxy at some point but hey that might be an ootion as well. Hmm i think i understand when it comes to Stilt Man and porcupine i just still have a hard time taking those two seriosuly to be honest. Yea actually the MRD idea did come from Wolverine and The Xmen specifically, i really wish that show wasn't canceled it had so much potential.
Peter won't have a company of his own since he'll still have the parker luck when it comes to balancing his life as spiderman with PEter parker but that doesn't mean in the future from that future he won't have a company of his own, also stain will hear the 'great responsibility' quote much later on cause i do plan on bringing him back into the story as well and he'll definitely meet spiderman when it happens. But not during the internship. Peter didn't ring up magneto or any of the other mutants becasue he was personally connected to the Hydro man battle and was focused on how hydro man specifically was being treated. In a way, in truee spiderman fashion, he fetl a type of responsibility for that specific event. And you're right in that Magneto had good intentions but the wrong methods, especially with how far he is always willing to take it( cough ultimatum wave cough) i feel like Destro would've found inspiration from magneto since they had a similar sense of righteousness, for Destro the right to freely use ones quirk, and Magneto for the same thing though leaning more towards the mutants right to live. Although they wouldn't beleive him to be the messiah of mutants since he wasn't the one to bring about the change he wanted and nearly fed into their destruction sicne he craved the war between humans and mutants regardless of the wellbeing of the mutants under his care. Hey i don't blame you, Izuchaco is my OTP but i respect others ships. Except Allmgith and Deku that's just terrible. I did start reading New age of Ignorance, i only had time to read the first chapter yesterday but after this i'm gonna read the rest, it's pretty good so far though! i'll add a more detailed review in your story though lol.
Chadforever: Momo will have a struggle to remove that memory from her mind lol
anyway till the next one guys!
