I am not introducing any new characters, so I am not going to have a character bio this time.
"Okay, Beck. I'm listening. What's the challenge?" Spider-man asked. "Well, here is the first challenge, something you are supposable good at: catching criminals. "Catching criminals? You mean real criminals?" Spiderman exclaimed. "Is this for real?" the suit asked in disbelief. "I fucking hope not" Spider-man whispered back. "Here are the rules so you. There will be three waves of 12 criminals. We will both be competing to collect them all. Once caught, we are to take them of one of the holding cells which I have constructed. Notice that there are 3 the holding cells with different coloured walls; red, green and blue. The criminals will be wearing shirts same colours. To get a point, we have to put the criminal in a cell with the colour matching his shirt." When Beck finished the explanation of the challenge he said, "If I, with no so-called superpowers, can collect more then you then I will show the world what a shame you are!" Both Spider-man and his costume just stood there, listening in disbelief. Finally Spider-man said something. "Okay, Beck. I have to ask." Spider-man said, "What is it that has made you so delusional?" "Yes. Delusional is a word." The suit said, "Insane is another."
"Delusional is a word." Black Cat said watching the screen. "Crazy is another." Black Cat quickly jumped to the next building, making her way toward the arena. If Beck was actually using real criminals, as stupid as it was, then she need to get over there. The last thing New York need was a prison break.
As the bell sounded, Beck and Spider-man moved at the same time. Spider-man shot out two webline, which hit two criminals with red shirts. Spinning the webs, he threw the two of them into the red cell. Jumping into the air, spider-man then fired out two more weblines at two wearing green. He then pulled them into the green holding cell. That was four so far. Beck then called out, "See this, Spider-man! I practice this move in Ninja Madness, playing ninja!" Spider-man then said, "Your parents didn't hold you enough as a child did they? They just let you watch T.V. You're like Jim Carey in the Cable Guy!" Spider-man grabbed another two, one with a green shirt and one with a blue. He then jumped up again, throwing them into their holding cells. "Wow, Beck! You're still going. I didn't notice." Beck hand only 2 to Spider-man's 6, but score didn't last. Spider-man shot out a webline and grabbed another blue criminal. He threw the blue one into his holding cell as drew the second to him. Picking him up, Spider-man shot out a webline and left the ground. Webslinging, he dropped the criminal into the holding cell, as he went after another. The grabbed the guy as he was still webslinging and dropped him into his holding cell as well. Beck at that point grabbed the last. An announcer then said, "It is the first round and Spider-man has taken an early lead with the score at 9 to 3!"
Black Cat pulled a small T.V. and started to listen. Spider was destroying Beck so far. That was good. He wasn't pulling any stops, probably very aware of the danger Beck had but New York in. She jumped to the last building before the arena where this fucked up contest was being held. She didn't like publicity but Cat told herself that this wasn't the time to be picky. She would just let Spider-man handle it until it got out of control. She jumped onto the roof of the arena and looked at the screen of her T.V. "It is the last round and Spider-man has been showing everyone how it is done! The Score is now 7 for Beck and 17 for Spider-man. Beck has a lot of work cut out for him if he wants anyone to take his claims seriously!" Cat smiled. "Keep it going, Spider! Keep it going!"
The Kingpin walked out of his limo to meet Norman Osborn. "Osborn, this had better be important." Osborn nodded, "We have a problem, William. I think that Hobgoblin has a piece of the Zentium X. One of his thugs, Rhino, has been attack plants which make weapon parts for a bomb that could use Zentium X." Kingpin face was an emotionless mask. "Norman, my friend, I do not like your jokes and this had better be one." He said. "I don't like my jokes either and I wish this was one." Osbron said in reply, "I came to you because I don't have any idea what to do about." The Kingpin was thoughtful before saying, "Leak out were one could find Hobgoblin. Maybe our superheroes, Spider-man and Black Cat can handle this problem." "Either way, you win." Norman said. "As I've saidl; that's way I'm the Kingpin." The Kingpin said in relpy.
"The challenge is over. Spider-man wins with a total score of 27 to 9!" the announcer called out. "Well that was easy!" Spider-man said. "That was too easy. This isn't over, Peter." The suit said. "This wacko's challenge could have been dangerous if someone escaped. We need to end this." "Agreed." Spider-man replied before speaking to Beck. "Well, Beck. How about it? Do you believe now?" Beck face said no. "I must admit that you have more tricks then I expected. But the second challenge will prove once and for all who the better man is!" Spider-man laughed, "Is that what this is actually about? Proving that you are better then I am?" "I don't have to answer that! You the one being tested, not me!" "This hit a button. He is trying to take the spotlight we have." The suit said. "Here is the second challenge! I have constructed an obstacle course. You will be at start at one side and must reach the other side, hitting markers along the way." Beck then flew to the other side. "I will be here, manning an electric cannon, non-lethal of course. If I see and hit you with it, I will prove to the world you are a fake!" "I don't like that cannon!" the suit exclaimed. "You think I do!" Spider-man said in response, "However, if we were to back out, then people might believe. That could be dangerous." "Agreed. However, be careful." The suit said, "Just because he says that it isn't lethal, doesn't mean it isn't"
Black Cat moved toward a vent to get inside. She had to make sure that Beck played the way he said he would. She wasn't sure about Spider-man, but she had trust issues.
