Sorry again for the long wait time for this chapter... I know, I know you have been waiting for this, but school is evil and what can you do about that?... Now its time to answer some questions... Absolutely pointless (great name might I add), sorry to disappoint, but Venom will not be showing up in this fict... He might be in my next one, if I decide to write one that is... But I'll talk about that at the end of this fict... Leo of Stars, I know Raven can fly on her own, just to let ya know... I believe what I typed was, "Starfire took Spidey to the streets, and from there, he webslinged the rest of the way. Raven was also flying by Starfire, but was keeping an eye on Spidey." I guess I can understand where you misread it, but oh well, we all make mistakes... I know I sure do... I just realized, I haven't thanked any of my faithful reviewers... So, many thanks go out to Absolutely pointless, Leo of Stars, Jiece 18, Dr. Evans, White card (is "cool" all you can say?... joking), J or The Blind, Kat, The White Dwarf, Star, Lost Inside, Celtic Dancer, littlemisschaos, and the World renown Gracie... There, I believe that's all... If not, sorry for not listing you... But now it is time to get back to what you've all been waiting for, and I will stall no more... The next chapter is here so read on my faithful readers... Read on

"Let me go!" Raven yelled at Slade. She was starting to loose control of her anger, and with that one little spark of her power, the headband went to work. Raven looked up at Slade with a death glare. "You... will... pay."
Slade wasn't even phased by her glare. He just walked slowly up to her and held her chin in his hands. His face close to hers. "We shall see my dear. We shall see." And with that, his eye narrowed, then he let go of her chin and turned to walk away, holding his hands behind him.
Just then... BANG! A door behind them burst open and out from the dust, Spidey emerged. He pointed a finger at Slade. "You and me got a problem."
"Spider-Man, welcome" Slade said as he spread out his arms. His eye narrowed. "But I am afraid you wont be staying long."
"Shut up." Spidey leaped high into the air from where he stood and landed right in front of Slade, shoving a finger right in Slade's face. "I repeat. You and me got a problem. First, you interrupt a great Gamestation session. Next, you attack and capture Raven. And then you sent out that sick-o, Carnage, on me and the Titans, leaving them injured and unable to fight. That kinda stuff really pisses me off."
Slade simply closed his eye and gently, yet forcefully, pushed Spidey's finger aside. He opened his eye. "I have pissed you off?" he said in a sarcastically shocked voice. "You have pissed me off. You have stuck your nose in where it doesn't belong in my New York City affairs."
Spidey put his fists on his hips. "Sorry bout that, but I cant help but stop evil psychos from taking over my town, let alone the world."
"Yes, well, that will be the last thing you ever do." He turned around and started walking towards Raven. As he walked, he snapped his fingers, and a small electrode, sparkling and crackling with electricity, dropped down behind Spidey and shot straight into the back of his neck.
Spidey let out a cry of pain and frll to the floor. Restraints came from every direction, and held Spidey tight. He was trapped. "Good one web head. You walked right into a trap" Spidey muttered to himself. He looked up and saw Slade, holding Raven's chin in his hand with a sinister look in his eye.
"If you remember my dear Raven, I told you my plan would reveal itself in due time." He glanced back at Spidey, then refocused his attention back to Raven. "You remember the girl I told you about. The one that Spider-Man here failed to save?" Slade pulled out a remote and pressed one of the buttons. Then, all over the giant screen, a video started to play. The video showed a young, blonde girl falling from a bridge, and Spider-Man diving off, trying desperately to save her. It showed Spider-Man shooting a webline at the young girl, and the way the girl's body went limp from the forceful jerk of the webline. The video started playing itself over and over. A continuous loop.
"You sick bastard. How dare you." Spidey could barely whisper because of the shock he had just gotten.
Slade disregarded Spidey's comment and turned back to face Raven. "When that girl died by his hands" he said pointing to Spider-Man, "he was tortured. He was torn up inside. He was suffering greatly." A sinister look came into his eye. "If you recall, I said I would make Spider-Man suffer. Torture him before I dispose of him. What better way to make him suffer than to recreate this, horrible act" he said pointing to the giant screen, with the video still in a continuous loop.
Raven's eyes widened in horror as the realization hit her. "You... you cant!"
Slade gripped her face with a little more pressure then he had with her chin. His face was inches away from hers. "Oh, cant I?" His eye narrowed. "I can do whatever I want. I am going to kill you, and I will do it right in front of his eyes. I will make him watch as another girl he cares for falls into death. He will fail once again, and there is nothing he nor you con do about it." And with that said, he started squeezing her head, putting most of the pressure right on her temples.
Raven cried out in pain. The headband acted up again and shocked her, adding to the pain. She felt faint. Everything was fading, going dark, oh so dark. The world was fading and she knew she was going to die. "Please God, not now" Raven whispered as tears flowed down her face.
"Stop it" Spidey whispered. He looked up to see Raven's face and saw it riddled with pain, tears flowing down. Not again, he thought. Something inside him snapped, he could feel it. He raised up with all his might, and ripped free from his bonds. "NOT AGAIN!"
Slade stopped his death grip on Raven and turned to face Spider-Man. He was standing up with his bonds shattered at his feet. He was breathing heavily. "Come now Spider-Man. You don't seriously believe you can take on me?" Slade said while gesturing with both his hands to himself. "Especially in your present condition."
Spidey ignored him and pointed a defiant finger at Slade. "You are mine."
Slade narrowed his eye. "Fine." Slade ran for Spider-Man first raised for a strike. But when he tried to punch Spider-Man, he only hit air, for Spidey had ducked under the punch and turned around behind Slade. He shot forward two weblines which connected with Slade's boots. Spidey pulled back on the weblines, forcing Slade to fall right on his face, hard.
When Slade got to his feet, Spider-Man shot out a webline that hit Slade right in the eye, covering the eye slit in his mask. "Argh!" Slade said, grasping at the webbing covering his eye. Spidey then shot forward more of his webbing at Slade's boots, only this time the webbing wasn't meant to trip Slade up. This time, the webbing hardened, mounting Slade in place standing up. "What are you doing?!" Slade yelled.
Spidey didn't answer Slade. Instead, he shot a webline at Slade's left wrist. He pulled the webline behind Slade and connected the other end to a vertical rotating gear overhead. The gear slowly ripped Slade's arm out of its socket, and Slade cried out in excruciating pain. Spidey then let loose with one hard punch right in Slade's face. The force of the blow broke Slade free of the webline and mounting, sending him flying backwards, unconscious, into the dark.
Spidey just stood there afterwards, breathing heavily, his chest heaving back and forth. He then realized where he was and why he had come here in the first place. He rushed over to where Raven was lying. He grabbed hold of the headband and received a shock himself. He ignored the pain and ripped the headband off of Raven's head.
"Raven!" Spidey said while patting her cheek gently, trying to wake her up. Her skin seemed paler than before. "Raven! Are you ok? Raven, wake up."
Raven's eyes slowly fluttered open. "You... you saved me?" Spidey nodded.
"Hold on. I'm gonna get you out of this." He grabbed hold of the metal braces holding her and ripped them off, causing Raven to fall into his arms.
"Thank you Spider-Man" Raven whispered.
"Ah, ah, ah. What did I tell you guys earlier. Call me Spidey."
"Whatever" Raven whispered, then fell limp in his arms.
"Raven?! Raven wake up! Don't do this to me. Not here, not now! Don't you dare die on me!" Spidey put his head to Raven's chest, hoping to hear a heartbeat. To his relief, there was. He raised his head from her chest to stare at her, just to make sure she was breathing. She was. Spidey cradled Raven in his arms. "Thank God you're ok. Thank God."
Spidey just sat there, cradling Raven. Then all of a sudden, his spider-sense flared. "Spider-sense, going crazy. What could be-" he turned around only to get a face-full of fist, which caused him to go flying back. He tried his hardest to hold onto Raven, making sure he didn't drop her. He was able to land on a nearby wall. "What the hell?!" He looked around and saw his attacker. Slade "No way!"
"You're going to wish you hadn't done that" Slade said while pointing to his limp left arm. Slade then grabbed hold of the limp limb, and with a sickening jerk and twist, Slade popped his arm back into place. He then clenched his left fist, cracking his knuckles.
"Jeeze, what's it gonna take to make you stay down, a freaking tank?!" Spidey asked, shocked that Slade was still up and ready to fight. Spidey then looked down at the unconscious Raven still in his arms. "What am I going to do with you?" Since he was high up on the wall and Slade was on the ground and couldn't reach him, Spidey had some time to think about where would be the safest place to put the unconscious Raven. He looked around at the ceiling, hoping to find some girders. No such luck. Then an idea hit him. Spidey spun a giant spider web and then lay Raven there for the time being. He then turned to where Slade was still on the ground. "I'm coming for ya!" And with that, Spidey dove form his perch straight for Slade.
When Spidey came into range, Slade thrashed forward with a powerful punch, but Spidey merely shot out a webline and changed direction. Spidey then thrust his foot smack into Slade's back, causing Slade to stumble forward. Slade regained his balance, and in one fluid motion, pulled out his staff, turned around, and swung it upwards, smacking Spidey square in the chin. This caused Spidey to tumble head over heals on the floor. He looked up right when his spider-sense acted up and was barely able to dodge Slade's next attack. Spidey rolled to the side, stopped with his back against the floor, put his hands on the floor behind his head, and sprung himself forward, kicking Slade with both his feet.
Slade was flying back, but he then jabbed his staff into the ground and used it to swing around and come back at Spidey with a double kick of his own. Spidey ducked and shot a webline at Slade's staff, pulled it towards him, and started spinning it around his head like a lasso, with the webline in his hand. Spidey then let go of his webline, causing the staff to hit Slade right in the stomach. Spidey then shot a webline to the ceiling and sung towards Slade, kicking him up into the area where all the gears where. When Spidey landed, Slade had already regained his composure. Slade charged and unleashed a mad fury of attacks. Punching and kicking at Spidey with all his might.
Spidey dodged to the side as a punch came straight for his face. "I," jumps in the air while doing the splits above a kick heading for his stomach. "Have had," bends all the way back dodging a spinning kick. "Enough," jumps over Slade dodging a punch heading for his chest. "Of," crouches from a backward swing. "You!" Spidey jumps up from his crouching position, landing on punch right in Slade's chin, causing Slade to fly up into the air a bit. Then, before either of them landed, Spidey spun around in mid air and delivered a devastating kick straight to Slade's chest, causing him to be flung back, landing on a horizontal rotating gear, with his right arm hanging from the side.
Before Slade could even realize what had happened just then, his arm was caught in between the two gears. Slade let out a horrible scream of excruciating pain. When his arm was finally free from the gears, Spidey could see that it was completely mangled. The bones were broken in many places, and it almost seemed it was about to fall off.
"Uh, I'm no doctor, but you might wanna get that checked out" Spidey said, with a little bit of laughter in his voice.
Slade just glared at Spidey, looked down at his arm, then back to Spidey. His eye narrowed. "Another day Spider-Man." Slade pulled out the remoter form before and pressed another button. The entire building started to shake, then started to fall apart. "Another day." Slade, clutching his arm, turned to run.
"Wait!" Spidey yelled as he tried to chase after Slade, but was stopped was a piece of the ceiling fell right in front of him. He looked up, but Slade was gone. "Good riddance" Spidey said with his arms crossed in front of his chest. "Wait... Raven!"
Spidey swung up to where Raven was, hoping that she was still ok. She was, but the spider web was starting to loose its hold on the crumbling building. Spidey picked Raven up and webtied her hands together around his neck. Then, he webtied her torso to his. "Cant have you falling to your death while I'm trying to save you." A quick image of Gwen (the blonde girl he failed to save) flashed through his mind, but he shook it off. "Not again. Not ever again." And with that, Spidey, with Raven safely tied to his back, swung out of the collapsing building just in time, and started to webswing towards Titans Tower, which lay on the horizon.
