Iron Man: I'm too old for that" he panted while staring at the remaining villains "if it had been a few years ago, I would've kicked that robot's ass with one hand on the wheel, but this time I had to get creative" he then saw his warning sign of losing energy display in his helmet along with his armor starting to smoke 'times up' he thought "so.. you wanna give up now?" he asked the villains, Ezekiel gritted his teeth tighting his fists "it'd be easier and quicker if you did"
Ezekiel: there's no way... no way" he said through his teeth "He's not any weaker at all. And look what he did to my Sentinel. He cheated"
In the Mountain Zone
The girl heroes weren't in a better situation, standing before them a exhausted Seol was restained with her right arm behind her back by a villain who appeared out of nowhere until that moment. A man about average height taller than the girls, he seem to be wearing a sort of theromal battlesuit it was yellow and red with a fist symbol on the chest and another man beside them, he was a few centimeters shorter than the man restraining Seol with a shaved head wearing a light grey camo outfit and a sleeveless black leather jacket
"Alright girls. Keep your hands where I can see them, got it?" he said with a smirk "no powers understand? Or I'll burn your friend to a crisp" he neared his fiery hand to Seol's face causing her to inch away
Nico: Seol's at a disadvantage" seeing the villain had a flame power and Seol's power was ice every bad match for her especially since the girl used a lot amount of her power freeze most of the other villains
Laura: he caught us off guard" she snarled a bit "we should've expected this... or I should've kept my other senses more opened"
"We don't want to kill any of you" the shorter one said "but we will if you give us a reason" a small static spark emerged from his eye
Laura: an electric type. He's gonna be the jerk jamming our communications like Reyes said
"Oh, cute and smart. And here I thought this one was the brains of the group" the flame villain nudged Seol a bit. Laura growled her blades sprouted between her knuckles, she was very tempted to pounce the villain "uh-uh" he mocked tighting on Seol making her groan and Laura to cease where she was "retract the claws little kitten" Laura obeyed him retracting the claws back into her knuckles "atta girl" he smiled while they had their eyes on Laura, Nico tried bringing her staff closer to her to case a spell to get the girls out of there, but this caught the attention of the electric villain
"Hey now!" he yelled causing Nico to stop "don't do that. You think I wouldn't notice? Lower the staff" Nico did so
"Big mistake, sweetheart. We're not some dumb thugs who can be outsmarted by a couple'a kids. You need to learn to take hostage situations seriously. So here's the new deal" he held his flame hand closer to Seol "either this one's going to die, or you are. How about that? You can save either her life... or your own. Now. What's it gonna be, girlies?"
At the center
Ezekiel: how is this happening?" he said scratching the back of his head causing a few strands of hair to fall out "he's not any weaker at all. Did he lie to us?"
Iron Man: excuse me" he got the young villain's attention "are you done? Didn't you say something about killing me? I'm still feeling pretty alive right now" he tried to keep his armor while having a confident tone. Ezekiel groaned in anger slightly
Flash: man, this is.. insane" he was impressed by the size of the pressure of the situation
Robbie: looks like he's has this handle. No reason for us to be here
Luke: hey Parker!" he yelled to his classmate "better let Iron Man handle these guys. We should go regroup with the others. Don't wanna be taken hostage or get in his way" he told him. Unfortunately Peter had his focus on the armor hero, seeing the smoke come from the hero's armor knowing his time was up and wasn't able to keep armor in use for battle, he was most liking focusing his energy in standing, talking bluffing to keep the villains back
Iron Man: well... what's it gonna be?" he said in a confident tone, but knew that fight with the Sentinel robot really drained his armor's power if he so much try to fight, his armor would fall apart giving the villains the perfect chance to attack and kill him, the best thing he could do was to keep the villains back with his words, seeing that they were hesitating shows that it was working, in hoping they'll retake and better yet surrender. Unfortunately The Spot narrowed his eyes looking at the hero in noticing something
Ezekiel: if the Sentinel was here, he'd destroyed you right here" he said through his teeth
Spot: Ezekiel" he went over to his colleague getting his attention "notice he's not moving very much. I believe Sentinel did a great deal of damage to his armor. The children are still here" he looked over to the students "and it would seem our underlings are recovering" the defeated villains laying on the ground were starting to get up "we can still defeat him if we attack together before their reinforcements arrive" hearing this explanation caused Ezekiel to calm down
Ezekiel: huh? Seems you're right Mr. Spot" he smiled a little "we have the last boss right in front of us" the students looked to see the villains rising
Luke: think Iron Man can handle those two guys" he refereed to Ezekiel and Spot "lets go help the others" he got into fight stance along with Flash
Robbie: Parker?" he looked toward Peter, who was still looking at Iron Man with concern, knowing the hero had reached his limit and the spotted villain was most likely the dangerous toying with him. Wanting to help Iron Man in anyway, but knew if he did it could result in the hero being killed, but before he could think any further. Ezekiel charged at Iron Man
Iron Man: damn. I was hoping he called the bluff' he thought
Ezekiel: consider this payback for Sentinel!" Spot unleashed more portal mist at the hero
Iron Man: Friday, where the hell is everyone?" he whispered asking his A.I., as the villains were getting closer webs were shot at them, causing everyone to look to see it was Peter launching himself at them with all strength in his arms and legs with blood dripping from his wrists
Luke: whoa Peter" he, Flash and Robbie were shocked to see their classmate rushed in
Ezekiel: this kid' he thought looking at Peter. For Peter it was instinct his body moving faster then his mind, it happened with Flash and Riot, with Wanda and the giant robot and now with Iron Man and the villains, he knew he couldn't stop them completely, but he could delay them
Peter: get away from him!" he yelled 'with great power... comes great responsibility' he remembered his uncle's words. He prepared to punch down Spot the same way Flash once did, but in the middle of the air before he could touch the villain, a portal opened on his side and a pale hand with small tubes on his fingertips each glowing orange electricity. Peter thought back to Mr. Murdock being severely injured by them as he was close to it
Spot: you didn't think I'd fall for the same thing twice, did you?" as Ezekiel giggled knowing the boy couldn't do anything and either could Iron Man. Everything seem to be happening in slow motion, until a bullet was fired hitting in the villain's hand causing him to move it away in great pain with a bloody hole in it and Peter rolled on the ground and the other students gasped in surprise
Friday: boss. They're here' the A.I. informed the hero
Iron Man: I've noticed" he looked up in a far distances, seeing a tall average height, slim muscular man, he had pale skin and had a somewhat rugged face. He was wearing a cowboy outfit with a blue domino mask, blue hat, blue jeans with two gun holsters on each side, long sleeve blue collar shirt, a open long sleeve brown coat and brown boots. He had quickly turned aimed his revolver pistol firing two rounds traveling through the mountain region zone until they reached their targets, one bullet hitting the villain holding Seol in the shoulder causing him to release her and the other bullet hitting short villain next to him in the shoulder as well as both villains dropped to the ground
Laura: what the hell was that?" she turned to where the bullet were fired from
Nico: is that" she asked helping Seol up
Seol: them?
"Hey, I think I know that guy, Two-Gun Kid shot" a familiar voice revealed to be Deadpool said approaching
"*quack* Sorry, for the delay everyone. But I got the teachers here as fast as I could" Howard the Duck said to the students as he sat on the shoulder of one the heroes, Deadpool and other heroes teacher arrived through the entrance area, the students looked at them with joy and relief faces
Wanda: Pietro!" she said in joy seeing her older twin brother with the teachers
Pietro: hey guys! Would you look at this. I've brought reinforcements!" he extended his arms out showing the professional teacher staff. The criminals that stood up glared at the heroes, they either didn't care or had nothing to lose. Some ran toward the stairs while others fired the various types of artillery that their Quirks produced, but that didn't stop Deadpool, who unsheathed his swords twirling them
Deadpool: chimichanga!" he yelled as he leaped down the stairs, rapidly spinning his swords, cutting and deflecting the bullets fired by the artillery Quirk villains he was even able to ricochet the bullets into villains hitting them in either their shoulders or thighs causing them to fall to the ground, he then finally swung his swords cutting down two villains, he sniffed his swords "ah... I love the smell of villains blood on my blades today. Almost makes me wanna... oh wait I can't say that. This story's rated T" suddenly another one of the teachers charged down the stairs, he was tall average height, also slim muscular, he had pale skin, brown eyes and brown hair with grey steaks. He was wearing a long sleeve dark green shirt with a light green symbols with a open brown jacket, black pants and shoes. He pounded his fist into his palm, creating five duplicate clones of himself, he did again creating more clones of himself and they all fought the remaining villains.
Howard the Duck: split up and protect the students!" he pointed telling his subordinates
"Yes sir!" they said complying heading into action causing explosions during the bout. Further away Ezekiel saw the explosions and heard the noise coming from the stairway
Ezekiel: tch. Dammit" he said backing backward to Spot "we'll have to withdraw to fight another day. Spot warp us-" he was been interrupted at the sound of gun shots and bullets piercing his shoulder and leg courtesy of the cowboy hero causing Ezekiel to collapse to the ground, groaning in pain. Spot quickly stepped in front of him, using his power to creating a portal protecting them from the bullets
Spot: time to go now" he began to cover them with a portal in order to escape
Ezekiel: I may have failed today" he said through his teeth glaring at Iron Man "but this is far from over Iron Man! Symbol of Peace! I will kill you!" he yelled before being completely covered by the portal vanishing with Spot.
It was that day we learned what pro heroes go through to keep us all safe today. It was revelation, we weren't prepared, but somehow we survived
The hero teachers spread through the facility, helping the students that were in trouble. Peter slowly stood up, he panted as his body was exhausted, his hands on his knees bend over as he looked at the dry blood of his fresh wounds
Peter:.. I couldn't do anything. I couldn't save you" he groaned referring to the hero, the memory of events came to his mind and he thought back to his uncle as well
"You know that's not true" Peter looked to the hero was sitting on the ground, his armor fully retracted, Tony had a few scratches on his face while he breathed heavily "you brought me valuable seconds, it weren't for you, those jackets I imported yesterday would have been returned" giving him a tired smile "you saved me again, kid" Peter looked at him for a moment before giving a small smile lowering his head
Peter: glad I could help
"What in the Sam Hill?" the cowboy said hosting his gun
"Its a shame we let them escape, after everything they did here" a female teacher with blonde hair said
Howard the Duck: *quack* they caught us by surprise. For now, we need to make sure all the students are alright" he lowered to the ground and the teachers nodded
Robbie: if all the pro teachers are here then would mean the rest of the school is safe" he watched the heroes spreading around
Luke: hey Parker!" he went to his classmate
Peter: huh? Luke" he looked to him coming
Luke: you okay?
Peter: eh.. eh.. eh" he then shook his head furiously looking back and forth at Tony and Luke coming, remembering that no one should know his secret "Luke just a second.. don't-" before he could finish a earth wall rose between them stopping Luke taking him by surprise
"Young man. For your safety, stay and go to your colleagues, we'll take care of the injured" Luke looked to see a tall very muscular man said, he had black silk combed back hair and brown eyes. He was wearing a red and orange body armor, red boots and a red band around his head. He seemed to be Japanese with a serious face
Luke: right.. yes sir" he ran back to Flash and Robbie "hey! He said to head back to the entrance" he told them
Peter and Tony: phew" they sighed in relief
Tony: thanks for the save Base. I owe you a drink" he told the large hero
Hiro Sokuto
Hero Name: Base
Quirk: Elemental Manipulation: he can control one of the four elements (Water, Earth, Air, and Fire) at a time. He can control the elements and create various constructs for offensive and defensive purposes.
Base: Stark" he turned to the number one hero with slight annoyance "that was very dangerous and reckless. We should get you to the infirmary"
Tony: yeah I know, I know. I'm already gonna get scolded when I get home" he knew his wife Pepper would get him for going too far on the edge in his line of work "but goes to show how strong those villains were" he sounded serious and Peter looked at him with concern
Lower Manhattan
In a closed and secluded bar in Chinatown, the very portal appeared in the middle of the room and appearing from it is an angry Ezekiel kneeling on the floor with Spot standing beside him calmly. Ezekiel clenched his fists with blood dropping from his wounds
Ezekiel: shot in my shoulder and my leg" he groaned "those idiot underlings wiped out even Sentinel being defeated. We failed because of kids and number one hero isn't weaken at all. You were wrong!" he said the last part to a screen on the wall
"No, I wasn't" a calm voice said from the monitor but with no image "we just weren't as prepared as we should've been"
"I agree" another voice said "we underestimated them, but luckily we were defeated under the name of the weak "Masters of Evil" name and not our own. But what about the robot I created? Where's Sentinel?"
'Master': that's true... why isn't it with you?
Spot: while it was blasted away" he informed the voices
"What?!"
Spot: by Iron Man. And without its exact coordinates I can't warp it back. We didn't have time to look for it
"This is a travesty! And after all we did to make him as powerful as Iron Man's armor"
'Master': I suppose it can't be helped. That's unfortunate
Ezekiel: wait... I remember.." he thought about Peter "there was a kid trying to protect Iron Man. He was strong. Fast"
'Master': hmm?
Ezekiel: if he hadn't gotten in the way, we definitely would've killed Iron Man. That punk" he growled
'Master': understand, you're upset, but this mission wasn't a futile. All we can do it learn from this. Gather the elite villains. Take all the time you need that is necessary. I'll need to remind in the shadows for now, which why I need you to be the face. A symbol of your own. Ezekiel. Next time, we will complete our plans
Back at M.A.
Outside the USSR, police arrived arresting the criminals and escorting them onto the buses that was transporting them to the prison, the detective in charge counted the students involved
"16, 17, 18 and 19" said a Japanese-American woman with chin-length black hair and an athletic build. She is often seen wearing a black leather jacket over a red and black flannel shirt with tight dark denim jeans and her NYPD badge clipped onto her belt and black shoes. She held a couple sheets of paper with the list of students and the ones were waiting to return to the main campus "aside from that kid who went to the infirmary with Iron Man, it doesn't look like anyone else has serious injuries"
Sam: no way. Those guys were no match for someone like me!" he pointed his thumb to himself dragging out loud, but unfortunately for him everyone else were in their own group circles talking ignoring him
Tyrone: so the guys we fought were just some low level thugs?" he said in a group with Groot, Pietro and Luke
Luke: yeah, but they messed with the wrong kids" he said while rubbing his fist against his open palm
Sam: they couldn't even touch me!" he looked toward another group to brag
Azari: so Iron Man was the one who put that hole in the dome?" he told Amadeus and Danny as they ignored Sam
Danny: that's some crazy power" he said in awe
Amadeus: shouldn't expect anything less from Iron Man
Sam: hey by the way!
Gwen: I heard the writers made you guys fight great!" she said to Kamala, Kei, Wanda and Riri, they didn't bother to worry what she meant over the 'writers' part while ignoring Sam as well
Kamala: it wasn't easy
Riri: I mainly use blast and fly tactics" she held out her right palm "shoot em then move fast!"
Wanda: but Gwen where were you?
Gwen: sorry its a secret" she pointed a finger to her mouth
"Let's go ahead and get these students back to the main campus. They've been through a lot. We don't need to question them right away" the detective woman said
Kamala: what about Mr. Murdock?
"He has shattered bones in his arms and facial fracture, but luckily he doesn't have any brain damage. Not sure how he's going to get out of it all" she remembered the paramedic's words
Kamala: oh no
Kei: geez" they looked worried and concerned for their teacher
Tandy: what about Jocasta?
"She's got some damage, but luckily its all from the cyber part. She'll come out brand new" she informed the students who smiled in relief of the news "Iron Man's gonna survive as well. Night Nurse's healing is enough to treat him
Wanda: what about Peter?
Azari: how is he?
"Peter? Oh the kid. He's gonna be fine, Night Nurse is treating him too" the detective informed them with a smile making the kids smiled in relief
Wanda: thank goodness
"Lets get you all back to class" she said to the students, who agreed and went to get on the bus. She looked toward one of her officers "Frank, I have some business in the nurse's officer. I'll leave this to you"
"Right" the officer said nodding. Flash was the only one that stayed behind, staring at the USSR rethinking of the events that happened, especially Peter jumping with great strength and speed to help the hero
Flash: tch" he sucked his teeth, aside from being showed up by the kid he used to pick up he knew there was something else the kid was hiding too
Luke: c'mon, man, we're goin' back to class now.
Flash: yeah, yeah, I heard him" he followed the rest of the class to the bus
Inside the USSR dorm
Howard the Duck was with Two-Gun Kid and the female teacher looking at the damage that took place thinking of ways to prevent any future accidents from happening
Howard the Duck: we should have Stark make some improvements in the security
Two-Gun Kid: agreed
"Teleportation can be troublesome especially if a villain has it"
Outside
"Detective Yuri" one of the officers approached her before she got into her vehicle to head towards the infirmary "we found something that seems to be related to the attack!"
Yuri: what? What is it?
"Some kind of robot. Its large seems currently disabled and the devices are unable to open it, we're taking it by the truck to the lab"
Yuri: hmm" she then looked to see Howard walking out of USSR with the two teachers, she went toward them "hey Director! Would you mind if I investigate every inch of the school? Just to be safe"
Howard: of course, I'd appreciate it in this case. You'll have full access to the campus. We'll definitely need help. We need answers ourselves" Yuri nodded
Yuri: proceed as planned" she told the officers
Back at the main building
It was late in the afternoon, the school was empty and the nineteen students of Class 1-A headed to their classroom. Wanda looked up in concern thinking about Peter, hoping he was doing well, just the thought of him makes her heart skip a beat, she shakes the thought away and keeps moving with the rest of the class
In the Nurse's Officer
Claire sat in a chair next to the beds of her patients, her arms and legs crossed
Claire: guess I won't scold you for being back here Stark since it wasn't your fault" she told the hero who had a tube attached to the Arc Reactor and a IV in his arm and Peter with IV in both his bandaged arms
Tony: always welcoming Ms. Temple" he gave a small smile while analyzing the armor through his glasses "looks like after so much effect, the armor limit was just one hour" Peter looked to him
Peter:.. sorry" he gave a sad look
Tony: hey, none of that. No use feeling bad about it. Things happen right" he sat up in bed, Peter could see the veins coming from the reactor, they've reached his shoulders, Peter looked worried as did Claire, but she slowly shook her head sighing knowing how the number one hero was at shrugging things off.
"Excuse me" they looked to see Yuri walking in "Stark. Did someone actually managed to give you a hard time?"
Tony: not like we're going to show in the movie. Besides we'd cut that part out
Yuri: sucks because that would've been my favorite part" she smiled coming closer to the front of the bed
Peter: eh, hey. Is it okay for her to see you like this?" he sat up in bed
Tony: its okay kid" he reassured Peter "this is Yuri Watanabe NYPD detective. One of the good ones. She's a friend"
Yuri: friend is a bit of stretch. Hate to interrupt, but I'll just cut to the chase. We need some information you might have
Tony: before the hard questions are asked, I just need to know. Are the rest of the kids okay? Then there's red and tin woman too
Yuri: well aside from the Parker kid" she looked to the boy then back at the hero "just a few scrapes, but otherwise they're all fine. Both teachers are in stable conditions as well" Peter and Tony sighed in relief "if you heroes hadn't risked your lives, the students would never have made it. You three saved that entire class of kids today" she smiled
Tony: you're wrong on that Yur
Yuri: hmm?
Tony: those kids fought and risked their lives as much as we did. I don't think I've ever met a group of freshmen who experienced real confrontation so early in their training. Not only did they survived, they learned what it means to be a pro hero. Those villains made the mistake attacking them. This class is strong. They're filled with courage and drive. Just watch. They'll become great heroes" he said in a confident tone with a smirk, Claire and Yuri smiled at the hero

Tony then looks to Peter, giving him a smile and a nod and the boys returns smile and nod back. This marked the end of the first chapter of a great journey
Later night came, Peter was outside the nurse's officer in his standard uniform
Peter: thanks for the help! Good night!" he told Claire
Claire: don't mention it. Be careful on the way home
Peter: will do thanks" he closed the door and started running through the corridors with only the full moon lighting the halls dominating the night sky, the events played in his head like a video on replay, he just wanted to go home and sleep
'We had no way of knowing, but the Masters of Evil' attack on the USSR was just the beginning. A bigger incident was on the horizon'
Peter stopped at the entrance of the building, and saw three familiar faces who looked eagerly to see him
Wanda: Peter!" she was with her brother Pietro and Azari all looked in joy seeing their friend fully healed, Peter smiled back at them. The four walked toward the car that belong to Azari's family, getting inside Azari told his driver to drive them home, during the drive they talked about the day, looking forward for whats to come
'We were just happy to be alive. To have shown that we had the potential to be real heroes. Too bad we didn't know the worst was yet to come'
On top of a building, watching over bright and busy city of New York
A hooded cloak shadowy figure stood with the cape blowing in the wind and having many pieces attached to his body ready find his next victim. Putting on a skull mask, eyes glowing orange as he prepared..
Jade and Julie: here's the next chapter
Jade: man this took us a while
Julie: sorry about that guys, we really had to brainstorm on this too
Jade: for the villain holding Seol it was a lesser known villain called Firebrand we figured a villain with fire powers should be the one restraining Seol who has ice powers even though we know she would've taken him, but looking back at the last chapter she exhausted herself freezing the area around them and he got the drop on them too, so yeah
Julie: as for the other villain with him in holding the girls hostage, it was Chris Bradley the X-Men Origins
Deadpool: I knew it! I knew I recognized that guy! He was with that crappy version of me in Team X!
Jade: that's right Wade. I figured since his ability was to control electrical devices he should be the one that was jamming USSR's signal
Deadpool: guess that makes senses. You two even gave me the double sword slicing/deflecting bullets move from the movie too! Though I admit that was the only awesome thing that version of me did
Jade and Julie: we thought so
Julie: we decided to make Yuri the detective in Tsukauchi's place just because Izuku is close to Tsukauchi and Yuri is Peter's close ally we thought why out
Jade: we have someone else in mind for the captain position
Julie: for Multiple Man in how he used his power, we got that from Wolverine and the X-Men TV series how he smacked his fist in his palm and five copies appeared again and again
Jade: the female teacher will be revealed in the next chapter, don't worry
Gwen: yeah, but hey! Why wasn't I with everyone else!? What's going on?! I wanted to kick some butt!
Jade and Julie: we know Gwen and you will in the future
Gwen: I better! Least I was ignored like Sam and they asked about me
Jade and Julie: see? ^^
Jade: another lesser known Base, Hiro Sokuto, our partner picked him out for us to be in Cementoss's position
Julie: hope we did him right
Jade and Julie: hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving!
Deadpool and Gwen: gobble up lots of turkeys!
Gwen: or need help with a turkey!?
Deadpool and Gwen: *pull out guns*
Deadpool: we'll shot you some!
Jade and Julie: ^^; yyyeeeaahhh... anyway
Jade: we'll try to update the next chapter soon
Julie: till then tell us what you guys think
