Chapter 6: Desperate Measures

"We arrested a guy from the ATM Robbery and he said that these aren't the only weapons that are on the street, " Captain Stacy said to the Web Swinger.

"We believe that someone is selling alien weapons to combat Law Enforcement," Yui told the group.

"Before the guy escaped our custody, he mentioned a guy that is armored and flies like a bird."

"Any idea who this guy is?" Spider-Man asked them.

"We have a few theories, but nothing we can go on yet kid." Yui simply told him.

Then, out of nowhere, an explosion was heard and it was very easy to hear and notice.

"I don't know about you guys, but I think it's time to move out!" Captain Stacy exclaimed to the two people.

"Don't screw this up, Slinger," Yui told him with a threatening tone.

As she walked up, Captain Stacy gave him an encouraging smile and said, "She's like that with everyone, don't be pressured or anything."

'Easier said than done' Peter thought to himself.

The two Officers got in a Patrol Car and drove off to the source of the explosion, while Spider-Man was following them by swinger in the air and then pouncing on the roof of their car, to the surprise of Captain Stacy and the annoyance of Detective Watanabe.

When they finally got to the location, they found themselves looking at one man with an arrogant figure and yellow sleeved hoodie, a middle-aged bald man with a dark blue hoodie with a van full of advanced technology, a gun that looks like an arm, and a bearded, black-haired and eyed middle-aged man that was looking concerned by all of this, until he one of the sellers mentioned some kind of climbing device.

"This must be where those bank robbers got their stuff from," Spider-Man muttered, still looking at the sale going on.

"I recognize one of them," Yui whispered. "The buyer is Arron Davis, I arrested him for armed robbery a couple of years back."

"I hear people have called him 'The Prowler' a couple of times." Cpt Stacy added.

"Why does every burglar have to be given some kind of nickname?" Spidey asked.

"Said the kid that calls himself Spider-Man." Yui joked and Cpt Stacy chuckled.

"Hey, you do have a sense of humor," Spider-Man said surprisingly and Cpt Stacy moved closer.

"What are you doing?" Yui asked.

"Getting a picture of the license plate!" Cpt Stacy whispered harshly.

"Be careful, there are twigs around you," Spider-Man stated the obvious.

Cpt Stacy ignored his warning, got his camera out of his Police jacket, and took the picture, which went noticed by the buyers and sellers.

"Who's there?" Said the arrogant man.

"You set us up!" The bald man then pulled a gun out on the buyer.

Spider-Man then leaped out of his hiding spot and exclaimed, "If you're going to shoot at anyone, shoot at me!"

"Alright." The bald man said as he aimed his gun at Spider-Man.

But then BANG, a shot was fired at the bald man's arm and Spidey could see that the shot came from Captain Stacy, who was holding a smoking gun and that's when Spider-Man rushed to apprehend the hairless crook until the arrogant one hit him with some kind of gauntlet, which blasted about 6 feet away from him.

"Damn!" Said the arrogant guy with the iron gauntlet

Captain Stacy ran over to him and asked, "You okay kid?"

"I'm fine."

The seller got inside his van, along with the other seller and both drove off, with Spider-Man on their tail. The van went wild as the two sellers were trying to shake off the Friendly Neighborhood Slinger. Spider-Man was finally able to jump onto the top of the van, causing a loud KATHUNK. The two Police officers were following the van with a high chance of getting these guys. The arrogant seller opened the van's back door, aiming the arm gun at the Wallcrawler, but Spider-Man, using his reflexes, kicked the gun out of the man's hand and tossed it into the police car that Stacy and his partner were driving.

"Consider that evidence!" Spider-Man yelled to his faithful sidekicks.

But then, a shadowing figure appeared and it looked like a mechanized devil with wings, grabbed the web-slinger, and flew with him in the air.

Watanabe opened fire at the winged Vulture, but her bullets weren't gonna do anything against the person. The bald driver found his gun and shot at the Police car's wheel, backing it crashing into a nearby ditch.
