Alright things are only heating up now, we got our passing references of team JNPR and so much more and that meeting between Jaune and Steve is my favorite scene until I hit the pedal to the medal into overdrive to the point of sheer madness.
To clarify, right now there was some confusion going on with me bringing up Panther and Strange.
Just a reminder, this is taking place after Civil War with Panther, Strange and Spider-man's stories happening concurrently to this one right now. I've checked the wikia and Doctor Strange's journey ended around the start of 2017.
So in total about 2 to 4 months….i think, but that's what I'm stating right now.
Don't worry, everything will fall in line for the Infinity War Arc which will be a total madhouse of an arc considering the dumpster load of extra characters and content I have added when making this crossover
And no Fanifc writer 117, it's never too soon. We're on the internet in case you have forgotten.
But regardless, we're entering RWBY volume 1 territory here and now so it is time we blast off at the speed of light.
And by that I mean as often as I could update, yay me(He said sarcastically)

Avenging Remnant Chapter 16: What a Colorful Neighborhood
Violent winds buffeted the young man as he pulled himself up the line that was attached to the currently cloaked plane.
He grunted with great exertion as he crawled closer to the air sealed wingsuit that was covering the bottom portion of the plane.
Positioning himself carefully, he began kicking at the dome managing to slightly jar it from its placing.
Gritting his teeth, with another kick, the wing suit moved to reveal a small opening allowing for wind to get sucked in.
Less than a few seconds later, a spinning turbine popped out and once more Adrian Toomes AKA the Vulture took to the skies again.
"Just a typical homecoming" Peter Parker AKA Spider-man said to himself "On the outside of an invisible Jet, fighting my girlfriends dad"
With his back to the side door of the plane, Spidey ducked down in time to dodge the decapitating wings of Toomes who was now flying the plane. During one of his flyby's, a small sack ripped off from his wings, flying right at Peter.
Instinctively, Spider-man shot out his hand and caught the bag. Momentarily confused by the bag, his eyes widened in horror as a tingling sensation in the back of his head screamed at him to move his ass now.
Jumping back in time to dodge the razor sharp wings that slammed themselves into the top of the plane. The reflective camouflage tech flickered repeatedly at the now extensively extensive damage that was being caused by Vulture.
The fight continued to escalate until the damage that the plane had sustained was too much. It began descending down to the ground, right above Brooklyn's Coney Island.
"Oh god" Peter's lenses and eyes widened.
Firing a web at one of the wings of the plane, Peter pulled at it with all his might.
"Please turn please turn" Spidey begged, feeling the plane shift its slant into a more vertical dive, managing to pass by the apartment buildings without crashing into any of them.
The line then snapped with the plane leveling itself out as Peter clung on for dear life, awaiting the crash.
After toppling down the red tower in its descent, the plane crashed on the beach with the vehicle tearing apart into rubble.
In the middle of the wreckage and fire a battered web head lay in exhaustion.
His entire body screamed in protest to just not move. Peter felt his ears ringing, partially deaf. Moving to remove his now crooked mask, he let out a gasp and cough with his ears still partially deaf.
Sitting up, Peter looked around the area to see the entire plane was wrecked but most of the crates of Stark and Avengers Tech remained intact save for the arc reactor box which had spilled out a few pieces.
He managed to get himself back to his feet, the high pitch still there.
Peter looked forward into a pile of metal with smoke rising up from the fires when suddenly the Vulture in his damaged wingsuit flew through the smoke.
He knocked Peter aside before crashing down himself into remnants of the plane.
Spidey's body screamed in pain as he was back on his feet with Vulture doing the same.
"Hey Pedro" Toomes said menacingly
Peter gulped as Vulture flew at him. He rolled beneath the larger opponent and fired a web at him but that did little in stopping Vulture from flying down and stomping his foot onto Peter's chest. His foot harness claws clamped down onto Peters shoulders and he cried out in pain as Toomes began to wail on him with punch after punch.
Peter blocked the punch forcing Toomes to ascend up into the air and continue their brawl until the younger opponent fell to the ground. Toomes capitalized on this by flying down, grabbing Parker with his foot claws and slammed him down repeatedly.
He could only roll over in pain before one of Vultures wings picked him up by the hood, dangling before Adrian.
However, Adrian's attention wasn't on Peter.
Looking past him, he saw the broken crate of exposed arc reactors.
"Bingo" Adrian said to himself, tossing aside Peter
He flew to the crate with his wingsuit showing clear signs of greater damage as it violently jerked around. Landing atop the crate, Toomes prepared to make his escape.
It was at this moment that Peter rolled around and saw Adrian ready to fly once more when a frightening realization appeared on his face.
"Your wingsuit" Peter whispered, shouting next "You wingsuits gonna explode!"
Toomes didn't hear him forcing Peter to shakily raise his hand to fire another web line at him. Snagging onto the crate, Peter pulled with all his might.
Vulture rounded about to face him.
"Time to go home Pete" Toomes said simply
"I'm trying to save you!" Peter yelled back, tugging on his line
Vulture just slashed the webbing away and flew higher into the air with the wingsuit begin to spark and spasm now.
Peter attempted to fire another line only to learn that the cartridge was empty.
He didn't have time in replacing it as at last, Adrian's wingsuit gave out and he fell to the ground with a blaze of fire erupting up.
Horrified, Peter jumped to his feet and ran right into the fire. Spotting a large piece of metal, he moved to lift only to hiss in pain from the hot metal.
Thinking fast, Pete used the sand as a brief cooling agent to counter the heated metal and lift it up off Toomes.
Moments later, Peter walked out from the rising smoke with Toomes on his shoulders.
He set him down and collapsed beside him from sheer exhaustion. Both were gasping and wheezing from the long ordeal, unable to go no further.
It all was said and done….
Until Peter felt the hairs on the back of his neck and on his arm stand up, forcing him to sit back up quickly.
There was a crackling energy emanating from where Toomes destroyed wingsuit and the ruined arc reactors lay.
Peter winced standing back up when there was a momentary lull of silence.
Pausing, Peter waited for something to happen when that sense from before screamed out in warning a second before there was a large explosion that seemed to pulse and grow in size.
Without even thinking about it, Spider-man reached down to grab Adrian Toomes and throw him as far from him as he could just as there was another large explosion which encompassed Peter this time.
Adrian Toomes coughed and hacked, spitting out the sand in his mouth. He up-righted himself onto his knees, taking in deep breaths. Patting off the sand all over him, Adrian glanced over to where the violent explosions occurred only to see nothing.
He forced himself to stand and limp on over to where he just laid a few seconds ago only to find a large black singed circle with Peter Parker nowhere to be seen.
A horrible feeling of dread began to well in his stomach, a hand going to his mouth feeling slightly nauseous at what just happened.
Peter Parker, the Spider-man, the young pain in the ass that caused him so much trouble up to this point, who ditched his own daughter from homecoming to stop him…just died saving his life.
"Oh god" Adrian murmured, a feeling of guilt welling up in his gut
Scene Cut
Schnee Dust Company Cargo Train
"Are you sure about this tip off?" Pietro said in a bored manner while laying on a crate of dust "It did appear from out of nowhere you know"
Wanda who was sitting beside, rolled her eyes and chose not to answer her brother opting to continue reading her book.
"Listen, if Cap and Oz are sure about it we gotta check it out" Clint said with a shrug "Besides, when has Caps hunches ever done us wrong?"
"Do the Sokovia Accords count?" Pietro asked
"Not even close" Clint shot down
"But why only have three of us?" Pietro went on "Feels a bit understaffed"
"The best marksman, the fastest man alive and one of the strongest avengers all in one train" Clint listed out "I think we'll do just fine"
"Fastest man alive?" Pietro murmured to himself "It feels like that title is taken"
"By who?" Clint asked
"I dunno" Pietro rubbed his chin "Just wondering. Am I the fastest man alive?"
"Sure seemed like that when you run" Clint stated, checking over an arrowhead
"Yet you still seem to taze me in the ass every single time" Pietro deadpanned with Wanda snorting, recalling each time
Pietro shot her an annoyed glare while Clint chuckled
"Cause I'm better than you and just can't seem to miss"
"There aren't any cars around for Wanda this time" Pietro shot back
"Plenty of carts though" Clint countered
"If you two are done, I'd like to finish the chapter before everything goes crazy" Wanda wryly said
"It can't go that crazy" Pietro argued "There's only three of us after all"
"Do you really want to tempt fate so much to the point that the train magically derails itself off of the tracks?" Wanda stated with a raised brow "I'd rather not want to explain to Steve how that happened"
"You can be such a drama queen sometimes" Pietro said making Wanda's brow twitch
Elsewhere, a while earlier, a young Faunas sat alone atop a rock in the middle of a red forest staring up at the sky in contemplation.
The time was drawing near and she knew what had to be done.
What she feared was what he would do once it happens.
"Blake" Adam Taurus stood behind her, ready for action "It's time"
Blake exhaled and looked to her fellow Faunas.
The duo ran through the forest, kicking up leaves in their wake.
They eventually reached a Cliffside overlooking train tracks and just as Adam had planned the train was passing by just on time.
Both jumped and slid down the cliff before leaping to the train, successfully landing on one of the carts.
Adam selected a roof hatch and opened it, jumping in first with Blake following after him.
The second she landed beside him he turned to her.
"Looks like we're gonna be doing this the hard way" Adam said sternly
They were in a cart filled to the brim with security drones that flickered on upon the entry of its two intruders.
"Don't be so dramatic" Blake said wryly, hand on her weapons hilt
One of the robots hands shifted into gun mode, pointing it at Adam
"Intruder, identify yourself" The robot said with its mechanic voice
Adam only stared at it boredly, firing his blade out from his hilt.
He dashed right over and grabbed it to slice it in two with ease.
Instantly, the drones all changed their arms into short blades for close quarters and charged at the two who stood back to back before engaging their enemies.
The two worked in tandem with one another, checking each other's blind spots and eliminating bots left and right.
Blake utilized her weapon Gambol and Shroud in unison with her semblance, creating brief shadow clones for momentum boosts and distractions.
They cleaved through many of the bots, leaving scrap metal abound.
While this was happening, Adam quickly dropped off several bundles at the corners of the car.
The fighting continued on to the next cart which was an open platform with more security drones charging at the two.
Adam and Blake made quick work of the drones, dispatching them with relative ease.
They were in the next train car in a matter of seconds, the train car that held one of their main objectives.
"Perfect" Adam said, examining the dust inside one of the boxes
"Move on to the next car" Adam instructed Blake "Set the charges"
"What about the crew members?" Blake asked anxiously
"What about them?" Adam said, uncaringly
He pulled out an explosive when he flinched as an arrow struck his hand, forcing him to drop the bomb.
Whirling around with anger, Adam's eyes widened beneath his mask before he began seething with a building rage.
There in the doorway stood Clint Barton AKA Hawkeye of the Avengers.
He was leaning against the wall, spinning an arrow in his other hand while looking at his scroll.
"Yeah El Toro, what about the crew?" Clint asked casually, not looking up at his scroll "Don't you know you'll be setting back their paychecks a good few days cause of this"
"The Avengers?!" Adam hissed "Why are you here?!"
"Oh you know, the usual" Clint said conversationally, pocketing his items to look at Adam and Blake "Doing missions, helping others, saving lives, preventing terrorist organizations from robbing a train filled with valuable resources. That last one's happened to me more often than not"
"Only you huh?" Adam had his hand on his hilt "This should be a cakewalk then"
"Seems someone forgot about his ass kicking by one Captain Rogers" Hawkeye said expectantly "Guess you'll need a refresher"
"And you're the one do that?!" Adam said challengingly, slightly pulling out his blade
Blake in the meantime was internally panicking.
She knew that had sent the tip off of the train robbery to Professor Ozpin himself but to think of all the people that would be sent to stop her and Adam it would none other than an Avenger.
This expression and vibe of course was easily seen by Clint's acute eyesight.
From her posture to her demeanor, it was quite easy for the archer to discern that she may possibly have been the one to tip off Cap and Oz about this whole train heist thing.
That and the fact that Ozpin mentioned the name and showed them a picture for a better understanding.
Right now though, he had another task at hand.
"You have some nerve to be in our way, Avenger" Adam said venomously
"Uh yeah, that's what we do" Clint said like that was the most obvious thing in the world
Adam only clenched his hilt tightly, preparing to strike.
Clint seemed loose but in reality, his hand was waiting for the right chance to whip out his bow and fire an arrow.
"Wait a minute" Blake spoke up nervously "We?"
Adam blinked while Clint looked at her, smirking.
"That's right, we as in…"
Adam was abruptly knocked back by an bluish silver blur that rammed right into him. He halted in midair, ensnared by a red energy which then slammed him down to the ground.
Blake was by his side with her weapon in hand.
She glanced behind her and saw that the Scarlet Witch was standing at the front of the other door with red energy spheres being conjured from her hands.
"Surrender" She said in a commanding tone "You're surrounded"
"We will NEVER Surrender to the likes of you" Adam spat out with pure hatred, getting to his knees
"Geez did getting your ass kicked by Cap really damage your ego that badly?" Pietro quipped making Adam glare at the speedster with pure fury.
"It's been a few months since that time, you'll find that I've improved myself a great deal" Adam said, his accented mas and gloves beginning to glow red "Thanks for the hit"
Adam drew out his blade which was glowing slightly and dashed at Wanda.
Wanda sensed his intentions and blocked him with a red energy shield, Adam's attack harmlessly bouncing off of her.
Quicksilver naturally did not like Adam going for his sister so he instantly ran right at Adam and decked him straight in the jaw.
Hawkeye saw Blake ready to move when he fired an arrow which exploded to reveal binding rope.
She was about to fall over when Clint caught her, whispering into her ear.
"We know you're the one who tipped us off"
Blake's eyes widened in stunned silence while she glanced over to Adam who was beaten back by Pietro who she now noticed sported armored, scaled gloves.
Adam scrambled back to his feet, glaring with pure hatred towards the Maximoffs. He momentarily glanced over to Clint when his eyes widened at the site of a ensnared Blake.
"BLAKE" Adam roared "LET HER GO NOW"
He bull rushed at full speed with Clint jumping back, taking Blake with her to avoid his sword swing which cleaved through a number of crates and the walls.
Some began disintegrating around them.
Adam was so unhinged at Blake being captured he whipped out a switch and Blake recognized it immediately.
"ADAM NO" Blake yelled out in vain as Adam pressed down on the button and from the previous cart, a violent explosion rocked the train and the tracks.
"Shit" Hawkeye gritted out, stumbling to find his footing while keeping a hold on Blake for her safety.
He turned to Pietro and Wanda.
"Damage Control" Clint instructed the two "Get the crew off now and make sure the train doesn't cause any more further damage NOW"
Without wasting any breath, Quicksilver ran out at full speed with Wanda using her power to open the ceiling hatch of the car and fly out.
Clint in the meantime maneuvered Blake to his back and raised his bow in time to block Adams sword which attempted to slice right through him.
Shoving him off with his bow then a kick, Blake let out an 'eep' when she felt more ropes constrict around her and she found herself attached to Clint's back.
"Thank god I work out and you're light" Clint exhaled from the added on weight.
Nonetheless he fought off Adam momentarily as best as he could, trying not move as much for the Faunas on his shoulder who was letting out sounds from every twist and turn he made.
"Can you try not doing that?" Blake yelled out in nausea and irritation
"Oh I'm sorry" Clint grunted out, parrying another sword attack while maintaining balance "Would you like for me to not defend myself and use you as a meat shield?"
"I would never harm my beloved" Adam exclaimed, mask and eyes ablaze.
"You just blew up a train to rescue her" Clint pointed "While that's kinda admirable, you could have killed her in your craze"
"I knew what I was doing" Adam shot back
"Right, you're of sound mind right now, aren't you?" Clint remarked, moving back and jumping out the cart
"BLAKE"
"WAAAAAH" Blake yelled out
"Oh Calm down, I've done this a thousand times already" Clint calmly said while pulling out a rope arrow that he fired into one of the side pillars of the train tracks support structure and swung down to safety.
Landing with a slight run, Clint let out a relieved sigh.
He glanced back up to see that the train and its crew were safe thanks to Pietro and Wanda. Holding a proud grin for the moment, he helped Blake down.
She fell to her knees, moaning from the vertigo.
"You couldn't have made a better landing strategy?" Blake asked, feeling a bit queasy
"Wanda would have done a better job" Clint said with a shrug, pulling out a knife and freeing Blake of her bonds "But she was busy with the train your boyfriend so aptly decided to blow up for you"
"He's not my boyfriend" Blake said, voice tinged with regret and sadness
"You sure?" Clint asked, brow raised "Cause what he did right now was…well it was fucked up slightly but he did it to save you"
Blake only remained silent, resting on her hands and knees in remorse. She didn't even acknowledge Pietro and Wanda coming down to join the two.
"Crew is safe Clint" Pietro said
"I managed to get most of the undamaged carts to stop or move them off track" Wanda stated "One of the train conductors has already sent out a distress beacon for their pick up and I've sent out ours"
"Good job you two" Clint said proudly "Mission accomplished"
"What about…" Wanda silently left the question unanswered, instead looking to Blake who was now on her knees. She was staring at the wreckage that Adam had caused, cementing her decision of defection.
"Are you alright?"
She glanced over to her shoulder and saw Wanda Maximoff giving her a concerned expression.
"I don't know" Blake answered softly "I really don't know right now"
"You have time" Wanda said comfortingly, placing a hand on her shoulder "I know you may not believe me when I say this, but right now, I know what it is you are going through. Me and my brother both understand your decision"
Clint held a reminiscent face while Pietro only had his head down with slight shame at his past.
"How do you know?" Blake asked shakily
"That's our story to tell for another time" Wanda said, standing up to offer her hand
Blake stared at the hand with a second of apprehension until her face became determined and grabbed it with strength. Wanda gave her small smile, helping her to her feet.
"Blake…what is this?"
The young Cat Faunas' eyes went wide and she snapped around to face a slightly cut up but intact Adam.
He had Bloom(His sword) out while his mask was cracked slightly.
"What is the meaning of this Blake?" Adam asked menacingly, taking a step forward
In response, Wanda stood in front of Blake now with her powers appearing around her hands and arms.
Quicksilver and Hawkeye stood by their sides a second later, all ready to take on Adam.
"What is the meaning of this Blake?" Adam asked again, facing only his fellow White Fang member.
Or should it be ex by this point.
"What's it look like, jackass?" Pietro said brashly "She's ditching you and your gang of second-rate blowhards"
"Not how I would have phrased it but, yeah basically" Clint backing Pietro
Adam was silent with Blake starting to fidget under his gaze.
"Is this true?" He asked slowly
Blake glanced down, unable to keep eye contact.
"Yes" Blake whispered, loud enough for Adam to hear.
He remained impassive at her confirmation, only shifting his stance.
"To think" Adam said with silent fury "I wasted my time with you"
"I honestly can't believe she wasted her time on you" Clint shot back, notching an arrow in his string "So, are we gonna do this the easy way or the hard way? If you choose the latter, you know how things are gonna turnout"
"So please" Pietro's body vibrated with his powers "Choose the hard way"
Adam remained still, eyes only on Blake.
He then threw down an explosive smoke grenade to make his escape.
Wanda used her powers to clear the area of the smoke, in time for their own personalized bullhead to descend on down to them.
"Let's go people" Clint said, him and Pietro getting into the vehicle.
Blake stepped forward only to look back into the forest with remorse. Her thoughts were cut off by Wanda placing a hand on her shoulder and giving her a sympathetic look. She guided the young Faunas and now Huntress-in-training into the bullhead.
Scene Cut
It was night time now within Adams camp, the leader of the Vale branch sitting alone in front of the smoldering campfire while the rest of his subordinates had gone off to sleep.
Sighing, Adam looked up to see Cinder, Emerald and Mercury now approaching, the leader of which holding an expectant expression.
"So have you come to a decision?" Cinder asked professionally
"I have" Adam nodded "The White Fang shall indeed work with you"
Cinder held a smirk of smug triumph, nodding her head in approval at Adams decision.
"Wonderful" Cinder said "I look forward to a long and prosperous relationship"
Scene Cut
Vale had quite the night life when one knows where to look.
Many clubs, many bars, many restaurants of many varieties.
One only need look in the right direction and what it is that they are searching for.
That's why Yang Xiao-Long was out on her beloved motorcycle bumblebee, driving at high speeds towards her destination.
Now while Yang loved having fun as much as the next wild child, there was a purpose to this drive. A personal, familial oriented goal.
Of course that's how she hoped the night would go.
It derailed from catching site of a blinding light that was accompanied by a sonic boom-esque explosion.
Swerving slightly, Yang pumped her breaks and screeched to a halt. The blond Huntress to be was staring into an alleyway between two buildings.
Glancing around, Yang was very surprised to see that there was next to nothing of a response to that small event that just occurred other than her stopping to see just what it was.
Curiosity getting the better of her, Yang flipped out her stand and turned off her bike to investigate as to what just happened.
She had her trusted shot-gun gauntlets, Ember Celica on her wrists currently inactive and ready to spring into their offensive mode at a moment's notice.
Carefully, she walked into the alleyway and squinted her eyes a bit to adjust to the darker area.
What she saw was the outline of a figure leaning against one of the walls of the buildings. A figure upon closer inspection looked very much torn and beaten up.
Yang then saw that it was a young teenage boy that looked to be around her age.
He was garbed in a very unusual red and blue onesie.
And he looked like hell. There were scratch marks and bruises all over with his suit looking like it was in tatters.
Yang took the moment to examine the area around him to see if she could find any possible clues as to what had happened here.
She took note of the unusual tech around his wrists and then spotted a mask with the strangest goggle attachments she had ever seen.
Her thought process was cut off at the sound of the teen groaning in pain, hand instinctively going to his head.
"Am I dead?" Peter asked himself "Cause if I am, death is a lot more painful than they advertised it for"
Yang couldn't help the snort that came out.
Peter naturally heard this and craned his head in the direction of the sound, his eyes cracking open.
His eyesight was fuzzy, unable to make out the person in front of him at the moment. What he was able to discern was she had a radiant set of blond hair that seemed to illuminate her entirely. Peter's vision cleared several seconds later and he at last saw the full view of Yang Xiao-Longs tentatively concerned face hovering above him.
"Wow" Was the first words that came out of Peters mouth followed by "You're beautiful"
Yang blinked at those words, surprised by that comment but liking it nonetheless.
Peter of course was still a bit out of it, with all his senses coming back up to their regular enhanced selves.
"Well thanks mister" Yang teased playfully "You're not so bad yourself"
It was at this point that Peter was finally registering what he had said and that this may not be a dream or heaven as he had first thought.
Peter blushed in slight embarrassment, trying to gain his footing only to fall back onto the wall.
"Alright, head is still spinning" Peter said, rubbing his eyes
Yang found herself increasingly amused by him, deciding to help him out.
"Here" She reached out and grabbed on to his arm.
She found herself blinking once more, unprepared by the rather well toned and muscular arm he's got hidden beneath that sleeve.
Yang whistled out appreciatively, after all she was young lady who had a healthy appreciation of the male form.
"Nice arm you got there" Yang flirted jokingly
"Strong grip you got there yourself" Peter returned, at last stabilizing
Suddenly his eyes widened and he began looking around wildly with a frantic look on his face.
"Wait, what happened?" Peter exclaimed, panicking "Where's the plane, the tech, Toomes?!"
"Whoa, Whoa" Yang waved him down "Easy there hot stuff, take a minute"
Peter was truly beginning to realize that he wasn't on the beach, nor did it seem like any Queens or Manhattan alleyway that he knew of.
"Where am I?" Peter asked aloud to himself
Yang saw that he may not really know where he was so she decided to help him out.
"We're in Vale" Yang said
"Vale?" Peter said in clear confusion "Where's that?"
Now it was Yang who was confused, blinking a bit owlishly at Peter.
"Vale" Yang repeated, getting a blank stare from the boy "You know, the city of Vale in the kingdom of Vale?"
Again nothing but a blank stare.
"Seriously?!" Yang exclaimed "Were you raised under a rock or something?"
"I don't know what Vale is" Peter said "Is that a place near Queens that I don't know about?"
"Queens?" Yang repeated "What's Queens?"
"Queens" Peter reiterated hoping that she would know "You know, Queens? One of New York's five boroughs? That Queens? Next to Manhattan? Big Apple? City that never sleeps?"
Yang could only give him an equally unresponsive stare.
Peter began to panic slightly on the inside. What the hell happened? Last thing he remembered were the arc reactors going off unstably and him throwing Liz's dad away to safety before he woke up here.
'Did they teleport me or something?' Peter internally mused.
He shook his head, deciding he'll have to find out for a later time.
"Are you alright?" Yang asked
"I think so…for now at least" Peter then found himself staring a bit dumbly at the blond girl that looked to be around his age "I'm uh sorry, I never got your name"
Yang tilted her head, letting out an 'oh' of realization.
"How rude of me" She said with a slight dramatic flair "Name Yang Xiao-Long, Badass extraordinaire"
"Peter Parker" He said simply, offering his hand to shake which she did
"Heck of a grip you got there" Yang noted "You mind telling me what's with the Onesie?"
"It's not a Onesie" Peter instinctively replied only to clamp his mouth at the giggle Yang let out
He then realized that he was still in his suit but judging from the way she was acting, it was clear for him to see that she does not know him.
"And this?" Yang said, holding up his mask
"Oh, thanks for that" Peter said, taking it out of her hand "Yeah it's for my senses"
"Your senses?"
Peter found himself cursing on the inside at the slip up.
'Might as well tell her everything' Peter sarcastically thought
"It's a bit difficult to explain" Peter said lamely "Let's just say whenever I do what I do, the mask and the goggles help in taking it all in at once at better rate until I get more used to them"
"And what do you do?" Yang inquired "You a Huntsmen in training?"
"A Huntsmen in training?" Peter asked
"Yeah, those gauntlets you got look pretty nifty but I gotta say, I prefer mine" Yang said boastfully.
Cocking both arms, her Gauntlets came out on display.
"Whoa" Peter gaped in astonishment "That's so awesome"
"Thanks" Yang said proudly "Made them myself with a little help from my sister"
"Wow" Peter couldn't help but marvel at the gauntlets, noticing two barrels on the top
"Are those…shotgun barrels?" Peter asked in slight awe
"Yup, this is Ember Celica, my pride and joy" Yang said, recalling her weapon into its inactive state "What are yours called?"
"These?" Peter asked, holding up one of his arms "Um…I don't got a name for them"
Bringing up the topic of his web shooters made an important thought stray into his thoughts.
"Oh god, I gotta get into contact with Happy and Mr. Stark" Peter said in a hurry, patting around himself and pulled found his phone was still on him
He pulled it out to find that he had no service.
"Oh great" Peter said miserably "Now what do I do?"
"You alright there?" Yang asked
"Peachy" Peter answered, clearly not so "Man, Mr. Stark is gonna kill me"
"Mr. Stark?"
"Yeah, you know, Tony Stark" Peter said casually
"Who?" Was Yang's
Peter gave her an incredulous look.
"Tony Stark" He said again only to receive the same expression "The Tony Stark, Iron Man…The Leader of the Avengers"
"The leader of the Avengers" Yang said, clearly put off "I thought that was Steve Rogers?"
"You know Captain America?!"
"I thought it was just Captain Rogers" Yang Said "That's what the others have called him on the news. What's America?"
Pete felt as though he was losing his mind a bit.
She didn't know much of what he said other than the Avengers but not the ones that he knows of. Nor was she aware of the freaking country of America or Iron Man.
Right now, he was at a loss of what to do.
His shoulder slumped slightly when he remembered something else. Or more specifically someone else.
'Aunt May' Peter thought with dread 'Oh man, what am I gonna do now?'
Yang seemed to sense his now distraught demeanor and was compelled to help him. Yet she also remembered that she was on a mission of her own that she needed to do.
But who said that Yang couldn't Multi-task.
"Hey" Yang said comfortingly, placing a hand on his shoulder. She was surprised once more to feel solid muscle mass beneath what appeared to be a scrawny frame
"I gotta take care of something real quick" Yang informed the young hero "Afterwards, how about I take you to my place and help you out? You look like you could use the help"
Peter could only stare, reeling slightly by the open showing of kindness Yang was displaying. He was quick to deny her.
"That's great and everything but I don't want to be a problem for you and your family" Peter said sincerely "That would be really rude on my part"
"Oh" Yang cooed "Cute and humble, just the way I like 'em. Don't worry about it, Peter, it's the least I could do for being the first guy to call me beautiful while looking me in the eyes"
Yang winked suggestively and turned around in time to miss Peter's near scarlet face at Yang's forwardness, a far cry then he was used to in high school.
"Well, are you coming with me or not?" Yang looked to him expectantly, standing at the entryway of the alley.
"Are you sure about this?" Peter asked
"Just jump on already" Yang gestured for him to follow and he saw a brightly colored motorcycle
"That's yours?!" Peter asked in astonishment
"It sure is" Yang said with a winning grin "Ember Celica may be my pride and oy but this right here is my baby"
She sat herself upon her bike and gestured for Peter to sit behind her.
He did so albeit really carefully as he had honestly never done anything like this before.
"You know you could hold my waist right?" Yang said teasingly, noticing how hesitant he was at such close proximity to her
"Uh, no thanks, I'm good" Peter said quickly and quite honestly it was true.
Due to his powers, his balance and dexterity was unmatched and right now he felt in his gut that he had some leeway in displaying his capabilities in front of Yang.
"You sure?" Yang asked
"Definitely" Peter said with a nod
"Ok then" Yang shrugged, turning on her bike and revving up the engine "Hold on tight"
Peter gripped the back end with a miniscule amount of strength as Yang popped a wheelie and sped off.
Yang glanced back and was once more surprised by Peter being able to easily remained seated on the bike.
She half expected him to scramble and in a generic fashion cling on to her like his life depended on it.
There was more to this stranger than meets the eye. And she found herself wanting to know more.
That will have to be put on the back burner at the moment however.
She was nearing her destination, pulling up to a stop in front of it.
"Uh…what is this place?" Peter asked
"The establishment that is owned by a man who supposed to know many things" Yang said vaguely
"That's sounds like something out of a gangster film" Peter pointed out
"Might as well be" Yang remarked "This club is owned by a guy with a shady past. Least, that's how the rumors go"
That didn't sit well with Peter with him pulling out his mask
Staring at the reflective lenses, he knew he couldn't let her go in there alone.
"Alright, I'll back you up then" Peter said determinedly
"Pardon?" Yang asked dumbly
"This place doesn't exactly look that nice on the outside and well…" Peter looked around the area "It's in the middle of a bit of a rundown part of this city"
"Well that's mighty heroic of you" Yang said cheerfully, patting his back "But not to sound like I'm denying you or anything, but what exactly can you do?"
Peter gave her a rare playful grin, with a glint in his eyes.
Reloading the empty cartridges in his web shooters, Peter slipped on his mask, becoming Spider-man.
He then jumped in to the air and fired a web line, swinging over to land on the roof in a seated position. Peter laughed at Yang's gaping expression, tumbling into a one handed stand to show off his strength. Pushing off the concrete, he flipped forward landing in front of her.
"That enough for ya?" Peter asked with a joking challenge
"More than enough" Yang said approvingly "But…that Onesie…"
"Suit"
"Would clash horribly with the environment" Yang finished "So just wait out here and if things get loud….well, louder than the usual sounds of the nightclub, feel free to rush in and back me up"
"You sure about this?" Peter asked "I mean, I know I just met you and all and I'm really thankful that you offered to help me, but I gotta ask, what's this for?"
Yang sighed, feeling a bit conflicted on answering.
Yes, Peter seemed like a good guy, going as far as to actually back her up in her endeavor. Yet she had kind of put herself in this situation after offering assistance and now here she was in a small dilemma.
"Ok" Yang said slowly "This has to do with my mother, or long lost mother really"
Spidey's lenses widened a slight bit, taking off his mask a second later.
"Your mother?" Peter asked softly
"I need to find her. To find out where she went and disappeared off to" Yang said simply "I have to do this"
There was a momentary silence between the two, the sounds of muffled club being the only noise within the vicinity.
"Alright then" Peter nodded making Yang jolt "I'll back you up from above if anything happens and then you can help me figure out my own situation"
Yang could only stare at her new friend, letting out a pleasant laugh.
"You're a weird one Petey"
"Petey?"
"Thanks" Yang said appreciatively "Alright then, here we go"
Peter was a bit thrown off by her gung-ho attitude but decided it would bet better to just go along with it.
Yang walked toward the club in a confident strut while Peter jumped into the air again and was now on the roof above, sneaking in through a window.
"How did I get myself involved with this again?" Peter asked himself, observing the dance floor below with his eyes on Yang who made her way over to the bar.
She approached a well-tailored man who waved off a set of twins who had on rather revealing dress wear in the eyes of Peter.
The twins wandered off, leaving Yang and what appeared to be the owner of the bar.
They conversed when it abruptly escalated with yang grabbing the man by where no man should be grabbed in lest for pleasure or this situation apparently.
Yang pulled out her scroll and held it up in front of Junior, demanding whether or not he had seen her.
Peter only hung his head in defeat, seriously starting to ask himself what in the hell was going on, where he was and how is it that he got from Coney Island to here.
He tensed up upon seeing a large number of cronies surround the two.
Peter was about to ump down when he went slightly bug eyed when both Yang and the tall stranger leaned in for what appeared to be a kiss…
When Yang straight up punched him across the dance floor, through a lamp and behind the bar.
Rolling his eyes, Peter jumped down from his position and quickly fired his webbing to trap a goon beneath it before grabbing one upon landing and flinging him into another.
"Nice of you to 'drop on by'" Yang said with a shit eating grin
"Yeah that was so bad I'm not even gonna respond to that" Peter stated
"Oh come on" Yang punching away a goon that attempted to jump her "It wasn't that bad"
"Oh yeah? Well listen to the master at work" Peter declared, moving to avoid several swings
"Wow" Peter said, catching a punch which he redirected into another face "You must have really went through hell to coordinate your looks. Did you guys go to the same tailor? The Generic trim salon? They do say that you'll like the way you look, guarantee it"
Peter simply weaved and bobbed his body around, effortlessly dodging any and all that ran at him.
Yang was simply punching through every grunt that got in her way or within her line of sight, firing of her shotgun gauntlets with every strike to send every man flying.
In a matter of seconds, the duo cleared the dance floor when the twins were now approaching them.
"Melanie, who are these guys?" The one in read asked the one in white
"I don't know Miltia, but we should teach them a lesson" Melanie responded in a bored drawl
Yang only let out a 'hmph' of excitement while Peter hung his head.
"I thought this was about looking for your mom Yang" Peter pointed out
"Yeah, this is part of the process" Yang said cheerfully
"It's a bit of a violent process if you ask me" Peter deadpanned at her
Yang only threw her hands to her sides, the empty shotgun shells falling out before throwing out two new straps of them and catching them into the gauntlets, now reloaded and ready.
"Alright, that was pretty cool" Peter said
"Thanks" Yang said, running to meet with the twins with Peter reluctantly running after her.
Yang met head on with Miltia while Peter fought Melanie.
"Oh god" Peter matrix style dodged a horizontal kick from her, noticing the glint of steel on her heels "What is with you people and weaponizing everything you have?! By the way, you look really cute in that outfit"
"Ah thanks" Melanie said
"Is that enough for you to not kill me?" Peter asked hopefully, parrying her strikes with ease
"Not even close" Melanie stated in her neutral tone
"Of course" Peter said in defeat
Not wanting to hit a girl or hurt her given his strength, Peter back flipped away and seeing that he no longer had his advanced suit he would have to improvise.
Pressing one finger over one his web shooters, Spidey pressed down and fired his webbing which spread out like a web net and went flying at Melanie.
She was unprepared for such a move and was promptly captured and held down, being unable to free herself.
"Thank you formula 3.0" Peter did a fist pump of victory
He glanced over in time to witness Yang's hair ablaze with a vibrant glow akin to…
"Is she going Super Saiyan?" Peter asked aloud in amazement
She used Ember Celica to blast herself forward at high speeds to deliver a flurry of shotgun enhanced punches to finish off Miltia with a powerful uppercut.
Seeing that the twins were down, Peter quickly jogged over to the other struggling twin.
"Hey listen, I didn't want to fight you anyway and that webbing will dissolve in about an hour or two" Spider-man promised "Didn't wanna ruin your pretty face or dress"
Melanie could only stare up at the masked teen in bewilderment.
It was then that his eye lenses widened a fraction at a strange buzzing in the back of his head.
There was danger headed his way and it was bad, but instead of jumping away, Peter placed his body over Melanie's, making the young lady blush profusely at the contact until a large explosion appeared behind him.
Pulling up, Peter seemingly missed her red face, only asking if she was alright.
She didn't answer, only able to gape slightly at Peter when she realized he had just protected her.
Peter and Yang turned around to face the owner of the bar wielding a large Bazooka.
"You little punks are gonna pay for this" Junior snarled
"Yeah, I don't have the money for those kinds of expenses" Peter said, raising his hand in defeat
Yang snickered until Junior fired his weapon, a barrage of missiles coming at the both of them.
Yang threw up her hands and fired rapidly to destroy them in the air while Peter grabbed two with his webs and directed away from him and Melanie behind him and into other projectiles.
Seeing that didn't work, Juniors bazooka morphed into a large baseball bat and engaged the two.
Yang was the main offensive fighter between the two, landing many consecutive punches.
Peter in the meantime remained on the defensive, making sure Junior didn't land a hit on Yang.
That of course all changed when junior swung violent and missed Yang with the blond taking advantage of the mistake and punching through his bat.
He crashed onto the floor and scrambled up to his feet, noticing his weapon was now ruined and that he had several strands of gold in his other hand.
Yang immediately recognized it as her own hair and her eyes shifted into that of pure red with her hair glowing brightly once more and her aura flared up chaotically.
"Whoa!" Peter exclaimed at the site "IT'S OVER 9000!"
Yang rocketed forward and delivered a swift right hook to Juniors face.
The strike was so powerful in sent out a shockwave that made the bar owner go flying and shattered all the windows in the establishment.
Peter stared around the bar in disbelief.
He then noticed that Yang was jumping out of the bar after Junior.
Tripping a bit, Peter ran out as fast as he could in hopes that Yang didn't kill the poor guy when he saw that she was speaking to a young girl, possibly younger than him in a red and black outfit that made him think of little Red Riding Hood.
"Yang?" The young silver eyed girl said "Is that you?"
"OH" Yang said happily "Ruby! Hey sis"
"What are you doing here?" Ruby questioned, looking over to Peter soon after "Who is that?"
"This is my new friend Peter" Yang said jovially, wrapping her arm around his shoulder
"Wow" Said a more mature, masculine voice "I thought this was a night club, not fight club. Pietro must have given me the wrong directions"
The trio looked over to see a middle aged man looking at the scene in bewilderment.
Ruby's eyes widened as did Peters as both had seen the face before but for different reasons.
"oh My GOSH" Ruby let out a squeal "YOU'RE THE ANT-MAN FROM THE AVENGERS!"
"Ant-man?" Yang laughed "I forgot that was your name"
"Not like I chose it" Scott murmured when his eyes landed on Spider-man
Eyes narrowing for a moment, Scott looked at the mask then the spider symbol on his chest. He was getting a really weird familiar vibe from the red and blue suit that the kid was wearing.
"Hey" Scott spoke to Peter "Don't I know you from somewhere? Cause I feel like I do"
"Um" Peter stammered "I uh…I'm no one really"
"Wait a second" Scott recognized the voice, eyes now the size of saucers "You're that Spider guy from the airport with Stark. How in the hell did you get here?!"
"Spider-guy?" Yang said, looking to Pete for clarification
"Wait, what?!" Peter said and suddenly there were about a thousand questions on his mind "What do you mean by that? Where is here?"
"Oh man" Scott realized and recognized the position the young kid was in. Though he held a bit of a grudge against those who supported Stark on the accords, that was then and this is now and judging from the person that was wearing the mask it seemed as though he was a lot younger than he last thought upon their fight.
"Hey listen" Scott said to Spider-man "I know right now you're probably really, scratch that, extremely confused but you gotta come with me. The others will explain what's going on"
"Huh?" Was the natural response of Peter and Yang , Ruby on the other hand was gone from where she stood.
Scott felt a light breeze from his side and turned to look down and jump a bit, startled by the sudden appearance of a young Ruby Rose looking at him with positively gushing eyes.
"Can I have your autograph?" Ruby asked like a kid in a candy store "Hawkeye already gave me one and I want a complete set from you all"
Scott could only stare at the young Huntress to be, put off by her boisterous attitude.
That quickly changed however upon looking at her eyes, feeling a sense of recognition come over him.
Those were the same innocent and happy eyes his little peanut holds whenever she looks up to him.
"Sure thing kiddo" Scott said, eliciting a loud cheer of victory from the young girl
"Um, Ant-man sir" Peter tentatively approached the ex-con turned hero "What is exactly is going on? Where are we?"
Scott let out a sigh, scratching the back of his head.
"Whew, that's a long story Spider" Scott said "One I think that Cap and the others would explain better"
Alright, leaving that there and that covers the trailers. I felt as though Blake and Yang's made the most sense in covering as Weiss's is her at a show and didn't see a reason to include her
And as promised, Spider-man has officially entered the story and things are starting to pick up.
Next up comes Ruby Roses only little time to shine and recruitment into Beacon.
Can't wait for you guys to see that one.
