Chapter V: Flight Of The Iron Spider.
Last Time.
"Where's Naruto?" Mary Jane asked as a clone of Naruto walked out behind the stairwell, digital camera in his hands.
"Right here. Peter got out after you did."
Suddenly Norman and several police officers ran out of the stairwell.
"You destroyed it?!" He asked, anger in his voice. "Thank goodness. Get the heroes some help." He said walking to his son to make sure he was alright.
Later, Naruto, Harry, Mary Jane and Peter was cleaning the penthouse before M.J. pulled Naruto to the kitchen to leave Harry and Peter to talk.
"Hey, why do I gotta go?"
"They need a moment."
They went to the kitchen as Harry and Peter talked before Harry picked up a bottle and placed it on the piano, hiding it from Peter who turned his back to pick up a mop. Suddenly, a small piece of Venom moved in the bottle before hissing.
Now.
New York, Night.
Shinobi sped down the busy streets to catch up to Spider-Man who was fighting a villain of Iron Man's called the Living Laser. Naruto saw Spider-Man swing to a building as a green light hit him, tearing his suit in several places.
He then looked to see the Living Laser, a man who is glowing green. His costume has V-shaped marks as eyebrows and a large one on the chest.
Naruto hit the brakes and slid sideways to stop as the Team was just in front of him and Power Man caught Spider-Man who fell as Laser hit him while on top of a building.
"Maybe we can take this thing out without tearing up the city?" White Tiger asked as Naruto stopped by them.
"I'm trying to think of a way to capture a guy made of living protons!"
The Living Laser then dropped down to them, and starts to grow large and is incapacitated by an unknown blast just as he was about to attack.
"AAH!"
He screamed as he was blasted and torn apart, the lights going out and buildings shining green for a moment in a 2 mile radius.
"What just happened?" Spider-Man asked as he crouched on a light pole.
Naruto stared up at the sky as he saw something flying down fast creating shock waves before coming into view.
"Tony came to help."
He saw a man in a highly sophisticated armor that is painted in red and gold colors.
This is Anthony 'Tony' Stark AKA Iron Man, a brilliant inventor, one of the founding members of the Avengers, and successful CEO of Stark Industries. He is also the current leader of the Avengers.
Later, Iron Man, who was talking with Naruto and Fury, had his face plate lifted up showing he has black hair, brown eyes, and a mustache goatee combo.
Naruto crossed his arms as Tony was just explaining his date with a model from the previous night before seeing his team staring at them. Adding chakra to his ears, Naruto listen to their conversation.
"Look at him over there. Y-You know he built that armor himself? Like in a cave with a paperclip and cans." Spider-Man said as he stood in front of the group. "Big time genius."
"Somebody's got a man crush." Nova said as Spider-Man leaned to the lone female of the team.
"What do you think they're talking about?"
"Probably some security issue."
"And the night before it was February's cover of Model's Monthly." Naruto focused on Tony and Fury again as Fury narrowed his eye at the billionaire.
"You done bragging about your social life, Stark? The Living Laser is one of your sparring partners, and my Team found him first."
"Shinobi is an Avenger, so technically… Look I gotta be somewhere so can we…?"
"I bet you do, Mr. 'Celebrity Super Hero'."
"Hey, he saw me and ran. And when he shows his shiny face again. I'll build something that'll find, and contain him." Tony said before Spider-Man, who walked up to the trio spoke.
"You can trace the photon pattern. That's gotta be specific to him, right? Unique in the spectrum?"
"Smart kid, lousy fashion sense. I bet with a little guidance-!" Tony then stopped as Fury spoke up.
"Not gonna happen, Stark. I don't need you and your cowboy ways influencing him. Two Tony Stark's are enough."
"Hey! I flirt. He's just looking for a one night stand!" Naruto spoke up at the jab at him.
The team walked up to Spider-Man who was still in a daze and work him up before Tony spoke.
"Hey kid, I like your style, wardrobe notwithstanding. If you're not doing anything Saturday, stop by the plant. Maybe I can help you out." He finished before he flew off, face plate going back in place.
"Get your butts back to HQ. And you, I don't want you near him." Fury said the last part to Spider-Man as Naruto got on his bike and looked at White Tiger.
"Want a lift?"
She shrugged and got on the back before wrapping her arms around Naruto's waist as he sped off.
Heli-Carrier, Saturday Morning.
The team stood in front of a shirtless Naruto who was wrapping black hand tape around his right hand.
"Are we waiting?" Power Man asked as Naruto looked up to him before Nova spoke.
"For Bug Boy? Why?"
"Patience is a virtue." Iron Fist said as White Tiger got in a stance.
"So is punctuality. Spider-Man's late, we train without him."
"He's probably just visiting Tony." Naruto said before bringing his hands up.
Nova flew towards the ninja who grabbed him, and spun around to throw him back at the team before leaning back from a strike by White Tiger. As she was leaning forward, Naruto pushed her down before dodging Iron Fist's punch. He grabbed the monk's elbow and pulled his arm straight before kicking Iron Fist's leg to have him fall on his back.
Naruto then ducked under Power Man's attack before sliding underneath him and then punched Power Man's knees forcing the hero to fall on them before bringing his knee to hit Power Man in the back of the head. He then jumped over Nova who crashed into the others before Naruto landed in a crouch.
BOOM!
Before anything could be said, an explosion hit the ceiling as a shadow flew in, revealing Spider-Man in armor.
The Armor has an arachnid-based design and is the same color as Iron Man's armor. Just like the silhouette on Spider-Man's costume, it's the same design, but it is larger and gold in color. Most of the armor is red, with the golden parts being on his back, wrists, ankles and his polaroids and two repulsor blasts on his palms.
(A/N: I'll still call him Spider-Man instead of Iron Spider.)
Spider-Man then lost control and flew around the room, three spider legs coming out of his back as he bounced off the walls.
A Week Later, Heli-Carrier.
The team without their masks and helmets on sat in the meeting room as Peter, still in his armor, stood in front of them. It's been a week since Tony built the suit for Peter and since then he has either been hurting the team dynamics, or destroyed the city more than the villains they faced.
"Why are you guys so upset? The Iron Spider armor rocks! Remember Wednesday?"
"Yeah, you blasted all of us as well as Blizzard." Naruto commented from the other end of the table.
Peter ignored him as he danced in place. "Don't think of it as the answer to my problems, think of it as the answer to all of our problems! Thursday?"
"Again, your suit was fireproof against Firebrand, but the fire got on the money we were trying to save!" The ninja again stated from his spot.
Spider-Man's helmet came up around his head as he ignored Naruto once again. "I mean come on, I got my own repulsor blasts! Yesterday?"
"You caused a 5 car pile up trying to use them."
Later, the team minus Spider-Man was complaining to Fury about Spider-Man before an alert came up with Laser's picture.
"OK team, suit up." Naruto said putting his mask on.
"What about Spider-Man?" Ava asked doing the same.
"He's been benched."
New York City, Night.
The Team had Living Laser in an alleyway before Spider-Man flew down to them.
"And what are you supposed to be?" Laser asked Spider-Man who struggled for a moment before landing.
"Are you serious? I'm your friendly neighborhood Iron Spider."
"Didn't you learn anything the last time?! You can't stop me!"
"Maybe they can't, but I got Stark Tech. In this armor that tells me where you are going to be." Spider-Man explained hitting a button on his wrist. And had his metal legs come out of his back.
"You might want to sit this one out. Until you get a learner's permit for that thing?" Power Man said as Spider-Man looked back at him
"Jealous?"
"More like afraid for my life." Power Man replied before Spider-Man was hit by the Living Laser and was sent flying to the other side of the street.
Spider-Man got up, and flew up to a billboard and crashed back on the ground with the billboard as Nova was hit to him as well. Living Laser then disappeared as Spider-Man got up showing a tear in his shoulder that glowed green for a second.
"That went well!" Spider-Man said as he dusted himself off.
"Face it, Stark Junior: In THAT suit, you stink." Nova said as White Tiger walked towards them.
"You can't control it. Clearly, it sustained some damage."
"You kiddin' me? He never laid a glove on me."
"He didn't have to. You're your own worst enemy in that thing." White Tiger replied as the others walked up to them.
"You guys just don't get it, do you? Tony Stark built this for ME!"
"Yeah, well, ya sure picked him over us in a hurry, didn't ya?! Hey, why not be his sidekick from now on and quit messin' with our gig." Nova said as they turn to leave. "We don't need you!"
"You're serious?"
"Seems that way." Power Man said as Naruto walked up to Spider-Man.
"Listen, until you decide against using that suit, or get it under control, you're off the team."'
"Seriously?!"
"Look, you scientists rely too much on this." Naruto said tapping Spider-Man's forehead. "And not enough on this." He finished tapping Spider-Man in the middle of the chest.
"You know, Stark became who he is because he followed his own path. Are you sure you're following yours?" Iron Fist said as they left.
"Where'd ya get that from, a fortune cookie?" Spider-Man asked before glowing green and took off in the air.
Later, Heli-Carrier.
The Team without their masks and helmet walked down the corridor to the meeting room. They just learned that Spider-Man was controlled by Living Laser and attacked Iron Man. And that the Living Laser threatened Iron Man that he will fry the suit of Spider-Man, if he doesn't shut off his security to his suit.
And Iron Man sacrifices himself and lets himself be taken over by Living Laser, to save Spider-Man's life. They walked in and saw Spider-Man repairing and improves his armor. He tells them that Living Laser is in control of Stark Industries and he wants to solve this alone.
"We're in this together, always were." Luke said as Ava spoke up hands on her hips.
"Even when you were a major screw up, which is often. We'd never let you fly solo on this."
"So let's get going before Fury finds out." Naruto finished putting on his mask.
"And forget the armor, you were better off without it." Tiger said as the team finished putting their masks on.
"Hold on." Fist said raising his hand. "Let's all dig deep and find a little optimism here. It's not going to be like before, is it?" He asked Peter who shook his head.
"Oh, don't worry, it's not going to be anything like before. I'm on my path now."
Stark Industries.
In Stark Industries, the Living Laser is trying to steal the designs of everything to sell, but gets interrupted by Shinobi and his team busting through the wall.
"HE-AH!"
"Knock, knock!"
"Think you have what it takes to take on Iron Man?" Laser asked revealing Tony was knocked out in his suit. "Would you kill Stark to do it?"
"We don't have to kill him to do it." Naruto said as Spider-Man dropped down.
Laser then attacked with green blasts as the team attacked but was overpowered by the suit.
While fighting, Spider-Man scanned Iron man before finding a defibrillator that shocked the billionaire up.
"Tony, restart now!" Naruto yelled having him do that and force the Laser out.
Spider-Man tells Iron Man his plan to seal Living Laser in the molecular disruption chamber Tony showed Spider-Man when he visited last week. Iron Man distracts Living Laser by flying away as Spider-Man and the others run to the molecular disruption chamber.
"You there kiddo?" Iron Man asked over the coms.
"Yeah, we're here. He's heading for the thing and he's right on your tail.
"The thing?" Nova asked Spider-Man
"Yeah t-the thing, it does the.. Thing!"
"Oh, the thing. For a second there I thought you weren't making sense." Naruto said with a deadpan.
Iron Man lead Living Laser to the chamber, having Spider-Man activated and transported Living Laser to another dimension.
"It disrupted his basic futonic structure, expanding it across several dimensions to a point where he can no longer control his physical form." Spider-Man said as Iron Man landed.
"Pretty cool, huh?"
"So where do you think he ended up?" Nova asked having Spider-Man and Iron Man shrug.
"I dunno/I dunno."
"So I see you took some liberties with the suit I gave you." Iron Man said as his face plate folded up.
"This thing had problems." Spider-Man replied as his face plate opened up. "I had to pop the hood." He said as Tony raised an eyebrow. "Y-You know, no offense."
Later, Heli-Carrier.
"I'm sorry, are we all good?" Peter asked in his old costume without his mask.
The team sat with him in the mission room, also without their masks/helmet.
"I'm just making sure."
"That's your idea of an apology?!" Ava asked from her seat.
"I'm sorry." Peter said before sliding to Danny in his seat. "Hey Danny, you were right. I'm better off being myself then someone else."
"Where did you come up with that? A fortune cookie?" Danny asked as Fury walked inside.
"Alright, alright. Get out of here before I remember that you weren't authorized to even think about going to Stark's factory." He said having everyone but Peter leave.
A few minutes after they left, Naruto heard a crash from the room as Fury walked out. "Guess he let Peter keep the suit."
To Be Continued.
