Chapter Eight
Hallucinations in the Dark
"'Can't believe you're still alive!" Ox said with a laugh as the three Enforcers slowly started closing in on Peter.
"Well, not for long." Fancy Dan said with a laugh as he started swinging his lasso.
"Come on...I mean, uh," Peter tried stalling but it would only prolong the beating that was yet to come. So he decided to try something so old, so stupid, that it could only work on the Enforcers.
"What the hell is that?!" Peter yelled and luckily all three of the Enforcer's turned to see what Peter was yelling about. In the exact three seconds that the Enforcers turned away Peter darted into a dark room and sit down on the floor, gathering his strength.
CRACK! The door flew open, Peter kicking in the hinges. Peter emerged into the hallway facing all three Enforcers. He couldn't run away, not this time.
"Let's go," Peter said as he jumped forward and kicked Ox in the gut and he bent over slowly, catching his breath.
"Why you little," Dan flung his lasso at Peter ducked down and grabbed the lasso. Yanking it towards him and knocking Dan into Montana. "Amateurs..." Peter muttered as he began to tie Montana hands together with the lasso.
"You shitty little twerp!" Ox dived forward and tackled Peter to the ground. He grabbed Peter's neck and pulled him to the ground. "Who's the amateur now, Parker?" "Still you Ox," A gruff voice came from behind him followed by a SNIKT and a tearing noise. Ox fell to the ground in a puddle of blood, and all three Enforcers turned to see who had nearly killed Ox.
"Names Logan, that's Scott and this, is Matt. Were here for Peter and if anyone gets in our way you die." Matt and Scott walked up behind Logan, Matt holding his billy club and Scott's hand at his visor.
"What the hell?! Where have you guys been?!" Peter began yelling at them. "You, you, left me here to die!"
"Don't get mad runt, we've been looking all over for you." Logan said as he grimaced. It was the truth; he'd been looking for Peter ever since he had gone missing.
"Don't get mad, don't get mad!?" Peter yelled, he was very confused and wasn't able to hold the anger inside of him much longer.
"Look, let's just get out of here without you setting off the whole place." Peter jumped backwards before Logan could knock him out.
"Screw you!" Peter yelled as he jumped forward and punched Logan in the face, knocking him backwards.
Scott leaned forward and grabbed Peter. "You need to stop; we're going to get you out of here." Peter shook his head and lunged out at Scott, at the same time jumping into the air and kicking Matt, who had been trying to sneak up behind him.
"This isn't like the Parker I know." Logan muttered as his healing factor kicked in and he regained his footing. "Something's up."
Peter shook his head and started to laugh slowly. "You just can't see it. I'm working for the Kingpin know you bozo." With that Peter flipped backwards and ran off down the hallway.
Logan, Scott, and Matt all exchanged strange looks. Then they realized why Peter was acting so strange! "That wasn't Parker, or at least, that wasn't the Peter I know."
Scott snapped his fingers with a good idea. "The Professor! He could simply read Peter's mind and find out what's wrong."
Logan raised an eyebrow and waved his hand in the air. "We can't come crawling to the Professor now Summers. We got ourselves into this, and we're going to get ourselves out."
What is wrong with Peter? Will Logan, Scott, and Matt be able to figure out the dangerous secret behind Peter's odd behavior? And get ready for an Ultimate look at a classic villain all coming up in the next chapter.
