Sparky Genocide: That will be much later on, but I will do it eventually.

X-Over: I really think you should read my responses and author's notes because I have already said MULTIPLE times, yes I will get around to other villains.

Kaliann: Yeah I'm working up to it, don't worry about it.

Hatten: I'm not giving Nightcrawler his own, but please be patient and wait and I think you'll be happy about something I'll do later on.

Red Witch: I should be thanking you, I wasn't sure whether she could or not, since I don't know exactly what her webbing looks like when it comes out but I was thinking along those lines that later she could learn to, but let's just say in the mean time I got something to help her along.

The Uncanny R-Man: Thanks, but don't worry I got a whole bunch of ideas I want to tryout first.
SPIDER-X

CHAPTER 16: SPIDER-MAN VS ELECTRO


Max was getting board just hanging around the house. He was changing the channels without a remote, by just concentrating and twirling his wrist at it.

Tabitha was grinning at him the entire time as he did it. "That is so cool." She said looking at it. Max had to admit, the place may not be the Ritz but Lance seemed okay, Fred seemed nice, when he wasn't stuffing his face.

Toad's smell took a little getting used to though. Tabitha on the other hand made him glad he was here. She was wild, beautiful and completely free in spirit, he liked the girl. He wondered if she felt the same, but he would work on it. He may had been shy with girls in the past but then again he wasn't that weakling anymore.

Unfortunately the major annoyance of the house zoomed in. "So what are we watching?" He said in that annoying voice of his. He really didn't like him, he had a major ego, and attitude to match.

"Why don't you make yourself useful for once and use you're powers for something decent for once." Max said to him.

"Like what?" He said offended and staring right at him.

"How about fixing this place up, you could do it in five minutes flat and Mystique did give us the money to do it." Max said coldly back to him.

"Oh please like I would do any manual labor." He said upturning his nose at Max. "Besides what if I don't?"

Max smiled. "Tell me you faster then the speed of light?" Pietro looked a little confused then Max zapped him at his feet. Pietro jumped to dodge it.

"Are you nuts!?" He yelled at him.

"I think he's got the right idea speedy." Tabitha said smiling and making a time bomb. "You could do it easily enough. Hey guys you up for a little target practice?" She yelled through the house.

"You wouldn't dare!" He said to them and received an electric attack and a time-bomb for it. For the next few minutes the two blondes chase him around and at the end he finally 'agreed' to help out more. Even though Max had accomplished something he was still bored.

He went up to the room he shared with Lance and got out his costume. It was green with yellow lightning bolt running up the sides of the arms and legs. There was a mask part that pulled over his face but he kept it down. He pulled on his yellow gloves and boots and put on a winter trench coat.

He walked out without so much as a fuss. Even though they were to keep a low profile Max wanted some action. He walked for a bit through Bayville. He was still getting used to the cold, and went to the more rundown side of the town.

He was walking near an abandoned building when a few 'unsavory' types walked into his way. One of them with a metal pipe in his hands grinned at him. "Listen up pal, there's a toll for coming through here, and if you want to walk out of here you either pay in cash or we take it out of your hide."

Max only smiled. "Boy did you guys pick the wrong guy to try this on."

NEAR BY...

Peter was swinging through over the streets. "Man looks like a slow night, maybe I can call it an early night?" Then he saw what looked like lightning in the streets not too far away and some screaming and yelling. Peter sighed to himself. "Why do I ever bother saying stuff out loud like that?"

He made his way to the area and found a guy in a green and yellow costume firing lightning bolts at a group of guys. He swung on down and was ready to kicked him with both feet while swinging. "Hey Sparky think fast!" Electro turned and got two feet planted into his chest.

Max picked himself up slowly and glared at the guy before him. "Who the hell are you?" He said nearly growling at him.

"Just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, who are you, Electricity-Man?" He said to him in good humor.

Max growled at Spider-Man. "The name is Electro and here's why!" He shot out several powerful electrical blasts. Luckily Spider-Man was quick and agile enough to dodge it across the streets and landed onto a building.

"Great just what I need, Berzerker on steroids." He said to himself. He dodged even more blasts of electricity. "You know I bet you don't have to pay your electric bill."

Max couldn't understand it. He could hit Pietro a few times, but this guy wasn't as fast as him yet he kept dodging, it was like he knew it was coming ahead of time. Plus he wouldn't shut up either, and it was making him mad.

He saw the spider on the building and a plan formed. He sent as big a blast around him and sent the entire building to collapse. Peter couldn't jump out of the way since doing so would cause him to jump right into the path of electricity.

So when the building started to fall he jumped onto and off the falling rumble. He was doing pretty good until his spider-sense went off and he narrowly dodged another attack from Electro, but in doing so a few pieces of debris hit him and he fell pretty hard onto the rumble below.

Electro looked at his work. Nearly the entire side of the building had fallen in. He was about to move in closer when he heard sirens. "Another time bug-boy." He said and he quickly gathered up his coat and ran off.

By the time Peter had pushed off a support beam that had trapped him he looked around and found Electro long gone. He also heard the sirens and decided it was best to disappear too.

A LITTLE LATER

Max managed to get home unnoticed with the coat on and went straight to his room. Lance was asleep so he took off his costume painfully, minding the bruises on his chest where he was kicked and landed on the ground. 'I don't know who that guy was, but no one does that to me anymore! I will get that bug if it's the last thing I do.'

Peter on the other hand was just getting into his room. He too was hurting after his battle with the guy calling himself Electro, and decided to tell the Professor in the morning. 'Maybe he could find out who that guy was.' Peter thought to himself.

He winced as he pulled off the top. He checked out the fresh bruises on his body and a few scrapes but nothing serious. He breathed a sigh of relief because now he didn't have to wake up Hank, and of course his Aunt would be worried sick if he came back seriously injured, and she worried about him enough as it was. He placed it, the gloves mask and shooters away and kept the lower part on. He fell onto his bed glad to be back and fell to sleep immediately.

The next morning someone pouncing on his bed was waking Peter up. "Wake up Peter or your going to miss breakfast!" He looked and saw Spyder jumping on his bed.

He groaned and sat up. "What?" He said groggily.

Spyder saw all the bruises and was afraid something bad had happened to him. "Are you alright? You look like someone dropped a truck on you."

"Actually it was part of a building." He said rubbing his eyes.

"Someone dropped a WHAT on you!?"

Now Peter was awake. 'Damn shouldn't have said that.' Peter got up slowly because of all the aches and pains. "Let's just say I made a new friend last night that makes Ray look like a nine volt battery."

"You want me to get Mr. McCoy?" She said looking at the bruises and the way he was walking.

Peter thought about it. "Don't worry about it I'll see him after breakfast, but do me a favor...don't tell anyone, especially my Aunt."

"Okay...Peter...are you really all right?" She asked worried about him.

"I'll survive, believe me I felt worse." Peter said trying to assure the girl. She nodded off and walked out. Peter on the other hand looked to his dresser. 'And now the hard part.' He thought. 'Getting dressed with as little pain as possible.'
NEXT UP CHAPTER 17: FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL PART 1

Also I like to point out (Again) I'm co-writing a story called Exiles (In the comics section under X-Men) with Uncanny R-Man and I would really appreciate it if everyone took a look at it and told me what you think of it. It's my first time writing with someone and I want your opinions of the story so far. Also it's under his account but I do have a link to it on my bio page.
