Note from me: Spider Man and Samus will soon discover who they really are in due time. Please be patient.
I have chapter 7 written down, but I have not started on chapter 8 yet. Hopefully, I will get it out of my head and onto the paper during this week. I'm also working on another story that is part 2 of my other story (Metroid Genesis: The Terra Space Station Part 1, for those of you who are interested in reading that story as well.) so it will be consuming my time.
I appreciate the reviews J, but I'm also open for suggestions to improve this story and what would make it more interesting.
Thank you for reading my story. Now you may continue reading my story.
Chapter 6
Spider Man clung to the side of a building, hiding away in the building's shadow.
He sighed heavily and said to himself, "This is like a game of spider and fly… but I'm the fly this time."
Spider Man looked down and saw the alien suit of armor aiming its right arm up at him.
"You got that right, fly boy." The deep voice spoke.
Spider Man shook his head and asked, "Why is it that you always intrude during my conversations?"
"Conversations? Are you a crazy person as well? Oh, wait. Your pajamas give away that answer. Maybe Spider Man should be changed to Lunatic Boy." The deep voice joked.
"Nah, Spider Man sounds so much better. It fits my description better anyway." Spider Man replied. "Now, what do I call you? Alien Man? Walking Armor? Bad Experiment Man? Mini Gundam? Man that lives in bad fashioned armor? Or am I wrong about your gender? Is there a girl under there?"
The alien armor remained silent and slowly lowered its right arm.
"Am I right?" Spider Man persisted.
"How would you figure I'm a girl? What if I'm not?" The deep voice asked.
"We can always find out." Spider Man raised his hand up and shot out a web to have it wrap around the helmet of the suit of armor.
The alien armor stepped back and grabbed at the web that covered its visor.
Spider Man pulled on his web line, trying to get the helm off.
The suit of armor shouted, "No! Don't!" The cannon of its right arm raised up suddenly to aim at Peter.
Spider Man's spider sense went off and he saw a beam of light coming toward him in slow motion.
He let go of the web and quickly jumped out of the way of the beam blast.
Spider Man heard a thunderous blast as well as an explosion. He turned his head back to glance at the wall where head clung to.
He hopped back onto the building near the hole and blinked at the edges.
The melted edges were steaming.
Any second later,, I would have been a melted spidey! Peter thought in surprise.
He looked down at the suit and exclaimed, "You could really hurt someone with that!.. Whatever it is!"
The suit of armor finally yanked off the web that clung around its helmet.
"The purpose of the beam cannon is to kill, not hurt."
"Now you're trying to kill me?! I thought you would have at least turned in your bounty alive!" Spider Man replied in a shocked voice.
"Under desperate circumstances I would have to… but in this case, you're starting to piss me off. So, it's declared an official desperate circumstance... but I'm still in the mood to have you give yourself up and you won't end up as a melted pile of spider guts." The deep voice replied in an irritated tone.
"But I'm having so much fun!" Spider Man proclaimed.
The alien suit of armor raised up its right arm up again, "It won't be fun anymore if I have to blow half of your body off. Now, just give up! I don't want to accidentally shoot anyone or blow up structures."
"Aw, is the alien soft-hearted?" Spider Man asked.
"Are you mocking me?!" The deep voice shouted in anger. "You are really getting on my nerves!"
"I'm not exactly on your nerves, am I? How could I be? Your nerves are microscopic and I wouldn't be able to-" Peter's spider sense went off and he suddenly reacted by jumping off the side of the building and landed on the ground.
He raised his head up and gasped as shattered bricks came tumbling down onto him.
* * *
Samus smirked as she watched the mighty joker man fall on his face as the broken pieces of brick covered the back of the young man and entrapped him under their weight.
She slowly walked toward Spider Man, with her gun aimed at him just in case he did manage to get out from under the weight of the bricks.
Samus slowly bent down onto one knee in front of him and grabbed his entire masked face with her left hand.
"No more shit. This game is over."
"If you take me in, then who will protect these people from the goblin?" Spider Man half spoke in a heaving voice.
Samus smirked, "Hey, he's on my bounty list too. No need to worry about the safety of these people anymore."
"But, what about burning buildings and other disasters that could occur? No one would be able to save them."
Samus narrowed her eyes. "That's not my problem.. you're just trying to coax your way out of this."
She reached down and grabbed Spider Man's under arm and slowly pulled him out from under the rubble.
"Come on. I wouldn't want my bounty damaged."
"You were about to kill me before. So why concern yourself if I'm hurt or not?"
Samus bit her lip and lowered her voice, "That's because you pissed me off."
She pulled him up to get him on his feet. She jammed her cannon barrel into the man's stomach and snarled, "Now, if you try anything crazy such as escape, say good bye to your ass."
"Now you're interested in my ass? So there are aliens that are interested in their own gender, huh?" Spider Man asked.
Samus quickly let go of the man's under arm and slammed her fist into Spider Man's face.
Spider Man stumbled and fell over from the force of the punch. "Ow! Damn, that hurts! Now I can't even feel my jaw!.. Do you always beat the living shit out of your bounties?!" Spider Man placed his hand on the side of his face to rub away the pain throbbing madly in his jaw.
"You bet I do. So you're not the first." Samus replied smugly.
She walked toward him and bent down to snatch Spider Man's arm and pulled him to his feet. "Get up! It's time to turn you in for my money!"
* * *
Peter thought of ways to escape as the alien armor dragged him toward the police station.
He winced at the pinching pain in his arm where the alien held it firmly.
Peter thought of the night Samus Aran grabbed him in the exact area of his arm and dragged him out of the restaurant.
He had a quick flash back of the strange alien suit resting its left hand on its hip and its right arm dangling at its side. Another flash back of Samus doing the exact thing with her left hand and right hand flashed in Peter's mind.
The night Harry was about to shake hands with his right hand and Samus raised her left hand instead.
Both Samus and this alien, that's obsessed with bounties, are left handed.. and a bounty hunter would kind of be considered as a cop… Oh no! Could this suit of armor be Samus?! Peter came to a realization. He shook his head to wipe the thought from his mind. No. It couldn't be.. this bad for an excuse for a space suit couldn't be Samus.. But ya could never know until you try.
"Hey, you wouldn't happen to know someone by the name of Samus, would you?"
The suit of armor slowed its walking pace and came to a standstill. It turned to face Peter. "Samus who?"
How can she talk that deep? Could there be something in that suit that provides a voice alternator?.. Damn it, Peter! There ya go again accusing someone for something they couldn't possibly be!.. But I must know!
"Samus Aran. I heard from a friend that she's a new cop in town."
The deep voice replied softly, "What if I do know her? What if I don't?"
* * *
Okay, how in the hell does he know my name? He's probably just trying to find a way to delay me from my money. Samus thought in annoyance.
"Well, if you're turning me into the cops, she should probably be there." Spider Man replied.
Okay… what the hell is he up to?.. Oh.. I see. Yep, he's trying to figure me out.. nice try, buggy.
"Just shut up. I don't care." Samus muttered.
"Well, it was obvious that you cared about saving lives. You risked your life to save that little boy from that burning building. You even signaled for me to distract the Green Goblin so you could get the kid out." Spider Man answered.
..He's got a point there.. I guess he takes his hero stuff seriously… but so do I. That means we're no different from each other, except for the fact we hate each other to the core… Shit! I can't turn him in! I might as well let him go… Gah! Damn it! Samus continued to think of other sentences containing 'wash your mouth out with soap' language.
Samus let her grip fall from Spider Man's arm and she stepped back and lowered her head. There goes my money. She thought angrily.
* * *
Spider Man rubbed the sore area on his arm where the alien had gripped him tightly. "Damn! Ya got a tough grip for a weird looking space suit." He folded his arms and tilted his head to the side. "Well, it seems the alien can be reasoned with."
The suit raised its cannon to aim at him, "Shut up! Just get out of here before I change my mind."
"So you're letting me go? But I thought bounty hunters would never do that."
Peter's eyes suddenly became wide as the suit of arm jabbed him in the neck with the end of its cannon.
"Shut up! I've changed my mind, now get the hell out of here before I change it again! But this time, you won't have a torso left!"
Spider Man smirked under his mask, "What are you going to do-" His spider sense suddenly went off just as he heard the beam cannon charge up and he quickly jumped onto the side of a nearby building.
"Okay, okay, you made your point clear!"
* * *
Samus lowered her right arm and let the charge die down. She turned her head away and clenched her teeth. I can't believe I'm doing this! Why am I letting him go? I'm a bounty hunter and I'm not supposed to let bounties get away!.. Maybe he's just the fortunate one.
She turned her head back to glare at Spider Man just as he said, "So, does this mean we're friends?"
"No, it doesn't!' Samus retorted. "What makes you think you'll be the first to be my friend?!"
"Oh, I see. You're the alien who has a sociable problem.. So you don't have any friends? Aww, that is sad… I think you could use a hug."
* * *
Samus clenched her left hand into a fist and growled.
"Huh? Are you some kind of dog alien or something?" Spider Man asked.
I'm getting sick of his shit! I'm going to kill him!
* * *
Peter's spider sense went off again and he saw a rather large missile coming out of the alien's right arm, coming at him.
He quickly jumped, but was a second late just as a pile of shattered brick slammed into his back.
Peter gasped as the air was knocked from his lungs. He fell and hit the ground and was buried in a pile of a heavy bed of bricks.
