Drabble 75-Demons

Spider-Man and Phantom had been friends for years, and would probably be friends for the rest of their lives, but that didn't mean they couldn't add someone else to their group that Nick Fury himself asked them to take care of.

It was an old Hydra facility that would only need a small squad-Danny, Spidey, and Demon. And while they hadn't known the mutant for very long, they already considered her to be a close friend.

Her eyes were a piercing yellow, which contrasted greatly with her dark hair. Her horns pulled back slightly and curled at the end, and they were black just like her large, dragon-like wings that were folded close to her. They made her yellow tac-shirt brighter in the pitch black that always came with night.

"So, what's the plan?" Phantom asked, looking over at Demon and Spidey.

"We could have you go in and disable security," Demon suggested. "Spider-Man and I will wait out here for the signal."

"Wait, there's a signal?" Spider-Man asked. "What's your signal, dude?"

"Uh," Danny ran a hand through his hair as he looked at Peter and Sasha, his shoulders tight. "You'll know it when you see it?"

"It's probably going to be some sort of explosion," Demon teased. Phantom couldn't deny the truth of the statement.

"True," Spidey agreed. "Is your comm link on?" He asked them. They both nodded, and Danny gave a two-fingered salute before turning invisible and leaving the both of them alone. Spider-Man turned to Demon. "Thanks for helping us out with this," he said. His face was covered by his iconic mask, but she was sure there was a sort of sincere look under it. "We really appreciate it."

"No problem, dude," she replied.

It was a mission sent from Fury, but it had been the boy's mission-not hers. Not until they accidentally crash landed on Xavier's lawn and asked for her assistance. A mission being from Fury was the exact reason Logan hadn't really wanted her to go, but it's not like he could stop her. She was almost an adult and more stubborn than him in a few ways. If her friends needed her help then she was going-no questions asked.

She always found herself looking back on the first time they met. She had been flying over Manhattan when a group of mutant protesters grounded her. Thankfully, though, Phantom and Spider-Man had been right around the corner before anything to bad could have happened. She's sure that the group was still scarred for life from Danny's blatant anger. It was the only time she had ever seen the ghost boy angry. Sure, she purposely pressed a few of his buttons, but legitimately so angry he was practically spitting? That was rare. She was glad to say she found Spidey to be the same way.

They had quickly become fast friends, joined at the hip every chance they got. Whether it was pizza or explosions, just being able to hang out with people outside of the mansion who weren't mutants or normal people was really nice. She loved them, really, she did. But Demon had always had a craving for new things. And right now, their friendship was still kind of new.

They waited, watching the guards in a silence that wasn't uncomfortable. Part of this was from them trying to focus, and the other was due to the lack of nothing to really say. Nothing that had to be said. It wasn't like those movies where they were uncomfortable around each other and they try to break the awkward silence by making it more awkward. This peace, it was nice. It was the calm before a storm, they both knew, but Sasha was going to try to cherish it as much as she could before Danny's signal.

It didn't take long. Only a few short minutes at the least, and really, Demon couldn't tell if that was a good thing or a bad thing. A part of her was kind of glad it wasn't an explosion, though. Phantom had taken down the security, which had in turn made the guards on the outside collapse.

"Is that the signal?" Demon asked over the comm.

"The guards are life model decoys?" Spider-Man asked, slowly standing up.

"Yeah. You can thank Tucker for that," Phantom's voice crackled in her ear. She didn't know who Tucker was, but that didn't stop her from mentally thanking him. "Come on in, we don't have much time."

Demon nodded, a small part of her aware that Phantom couldn't see it. But Spider-Man could, and that was all the warning he needed before he lifted his arms up. Without hesitation, and with complete ease, Demon jumped into the air, letting her wings carry her as she hoisted the flightless spider into the air and into the large doors. Phantom was waiting for them on the inside, a panicked look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Demon asked.

"We, uh," he started. "We might have a small problem. As in, I was informed that all of the guards were droids."

"And?" Spider-Man asked. Phantom pointed behind him, a sheepish look on his face.

"I may or may not misheard due to a taco being thrown at me. Um, it turns out the only ones that are droids are the ones guarding the outside. So..."

And then Demon heard it. The thundering of a hundred steps, coming closer and closer with each passing second. She sighed and set Spider-Man down, shaking her head at Phantom.

"I swear, I'm going to die being surrounded by the biggest idiots in the galaxy," she said, pinching the bridge of her nose.

"Rude," Spidey said, placing a hand on his hip.

"Yeah, but is she wrong?" Phantom shot back, turning to face the hallway. The Hydra goons were practically on top of them now. His fists started glowing the eerie green that followed Phantom like a shadow. Spider-Man and Demon got into their own fighting stances, getting ready for the big showdown. Demon smirked and barred her fangs and claws.

Oh, this is going to be fun.
