No time to talk. Peter's got a world and friends to save. Let's jump right into it.
Overwatch Base, Watchpoint: Gibraltar (3 days after last chapter)
"Wrong. Run it again." Soldier 76 said on the intercom. He was running a training Sim with Spidey and Tracer in it. He was testing them to see if they were really ready for when they take the fight to Stryker.
"I thought he was a Soldier, not my 5th grade summer camp instructor." Peter quipped as he helped Tracer from off the floor. Instead of wearing his regular clothes or his Iron Spider armor, he was wearing a standard overwatch uniform.
"Expect a loooot of this if you're staying long-term." Tracer said in response. They were at this training session for a good 2 hours and each time, it wasn't good enough or someone made a mistake. And it didn't help that Jack was running the course over and over again while he just yelled at them what thry did wrong instead of offer solutions. Peter didn't see the point of it, and neither did Wrench and Sombra, who had to keep resetting the course each time.
After another hour of Jack repeatedly telling them to stop messing up, they took a break. When they got out of the training room, they practically collapsed to the floor. Peter was looking up at the roof when he saw Wrench's mask over him.
"Still with us sailor?" Wrench asked as he extended his hand out to help pick up Peter. He grabbed his hand.
"I don't know what's worse. What Stryker's planning or that ass whopping of a training session." Peter said.
"I'll go with the training session on that one mate." Tracer said still on the floor.
"This whole shit is asinine. We have the ability to track him down Pete. We could literally end this today." Wrench said.
"He's right. All it would take is one unsecured back door, and Stryker would be begging us not to throw him in jail." Sombra added.
"Trust me, I want to kick his ass as much as all of you do. But the only thing stopping us is Jack. He thinks we're not ready to go up against Talon." At this point, Widowmaker walked into the room with them. "Plus he definitely doesn't trust us."
"Was the throwing us in a makeshift jail cell the thing that tipped you off about that?" Widowmaker asked sarcastically. She helped Tracer off the floor and gave her and Peter bottles of water.
"Thanks love." Tracer said as she basically downed the whole bottle in a few seconds. Jack came out of a small room and instructed all 5 of them on the training session.
"First time seeing you perform Peter and I got to admit, that was something." Soldier 76 said as he put his hands on his waist.
"Leaning towards the best performance you've ever seen?" Peter asked hopeful.
"Not by a longshot." Soldier 76 said, crushing Peter's optimism. "Too many flaws in your fighting style, sure you move quick enough to not get hit as much but all it takes is one well placed shot..." He said that last part while looking especially at Widowmaker.
"Good thing that he has a sniper he can trust on his side." Widowmaker said, staring back at him. Tony walked in with his armor going back into a small group of nano-machines.
"Now, now let's all settle down." Tony said as he noticed the sweat coming from Tracer and Spidey. "C'mon Soldier, their both already good fighters and we all know that Stryker is going to throw everything he has at us. What's the point of training them any more?"
"Amen to that." Wrench said in his never dying wisdom.
"We have no idea what Stryker is planning, I need to make sure that-"
"We die before we stop him?" Peter asked sarcastically.
"That we're ready for anything he throws at us." Soldier said.
"We're ready. All we have to do is actually track him." Sombra said. "We can end this all before midnight. Before the new year."
Soldier sighed and took off his mask to rub his eyes. He looked at everyone that was there without the mask and then put it back on.
"I'll get all the members of Overwatch that I can. What about you Tony?" Soldier asked.
"Fury still believes that good ole Petey boy is still a terrorist despite the evidence Peter already put out to the public." Tony said.
"Not exactly my biggest fan, is he?" Peter asked.
"Nope. I'll try to see if I can get some avengers to help out and I'll have them meet up with the sirens. Your group Pete?"
"Use a computer to trace the signal of Stryker's secret air fortress and rally up with everyone there." Peter said.
"Alright everyone, remember that we are all on the same side now. Meaning no pulling guns or webs out on each other alright?" Tony said, confirming everyone's on board. They all nodded. "Then let's save the damn world!"
A few hours later.
Wrench, Sombra, and Widowmaker were all watching Peter on the computer, trying to decode and break firewalls to get a untapped signal to trace.
"Make sure you don't get caught by their security. Trip up and it'll fry the whole computer." Sombra said. Peter sighed heavily, but didn't turn away from the computer.
"Well it's a lot more stressful when I got you breathing down my neck."
"Let the man work his magic. Then he can show off how good of a teacher I am." Wrench said. Peter ignored him while he still tried to figure out how to bypass the security. After a few tries, he finally cracked it and got a signal to lock onto.
"Demonios si!" Sombra yelled in excitement.
Wrench laughed as he hugged Peter from the side. "Peter, you beautiful bastard." He started to make kissing sounds as a joke. All Widowmaker could do was smile slightly.
"Ok, alright, ok!" Peter said as he tried to stop Wrench. Widowmaker kept looking at the computer screen and noticed something big.
"Peter, look." Widowmaker said while pointing to the screen. Peter clicked on what she was looking at and found a file on it.
"Let's see." He looked through the whole file and was amazed and worried about how many plans for world domination/universal changing plans.
"What the hell is a super collider?" Wrench asked as his mask popped up two question marks.
"I don't know. There's a bunch of stuff here that could put Stryker away for a LONG time." Peter said while putting emphasis on long. "Wrench, think on the way there you could find out more about this super collider?"
"Yes I can." Wrench said.
"Alright. Says that the location of the X-Men are in a Helicarrier...over the Atlantic ocean. Near New York." Peter said.
"How's that for irony?" Sydney said as she walked in to the meeting they were having. They all walked out of the room and Wrench was holding the laptop. They walked towards the sirens.
"Jean, we found them." Peter said.
"Where?" Jean asked.
"Helicarrier over New York." He saw her all black sunglasses on a table. He picked them up and handed them to her. "Ready to rescue our family?"
She took the glasses and put them on as the rest of the sirens got ready. "Just say the word Pete." He smirked as he went to Forge to tell him.
"Forge!" Peter yelled to get Forge's attention. He was working on something, but couldn't tell what it was.
"Found out where the X-Men are?" Forge asked.
"How did you-"
"Only a matter of time before you came to tell me." Forge said smiling. When it came to knowing things that others think he doesn't know, he's the best at it. "I'm not going to be able to go with you guys, but I do got something for you Pete."
"My Christmas present?" Peter asked hopefully and sarcastically.
"Actually yeah." Forge said. He stepped to the side to reveal two pieces of clothing. One was a simple looking red and black leather jacket with a big Spider symbol on the back and a small one on the front (Last stand Spider-Man). The other one was his original Spider-Man suit, upgraded to have more grip on the feet, more weight on the hands for punches, and a big white Spider symbol on the front (Advanced suit from the Ps4 Spiderman game). "This should more than make up for all the birthdays I missed."
Peter was awestruck. He didn't know how to respond. "Forge, I-I don't know what to say."
"Thank you would be nice, but..."
"Thank you. I mean it." Peter said.
"Don't let me stop you. Put on the suit." Forge said as he moved away from the table he worked on the suits with. Peter put the jacket in a bag, he would save that as his new on-the-fly suit. He went out of the room and within 5 minutes, he was back wearing the advanced suit.
Wrench was trying his best not to nerd out. "Dude, this is so meta! How's the suit?"
"Shouldn't I be asking that?" Forge asked. Peter put on his mask after that comment.
"Feels comfortable and flexible to my powers." Peter said. He wondered why everyone expect Wrench and Forge were quiet. Turns out that Forge's design on the suit also made Peter's abs stand out more, meaning every girl in the room was paying attention to them. Even the always serious, now less serious, Widowmaker was drawn in by them.
"Can you guys stop looking at my 6 pack please?" Peter joked. Everyone shook out of their little trance and refocused their attention.
An Hour later.
"You sure about this Pete? The avengers could have easily take care of this." Tony was talking to Peter. He needed to make sure that this wasn't something Peter was going to regret.
"Stryker stole my family from me. My friends. And then he tried to kill me. I need to do this Tony. I just need to know if you're going to help me." Peter said.
Tony smiled as his armor started to form around his body. "Of course."
"Then let's go save the X-Men." Peter said smiling. He got on a ship with his crew, some overwatch members, and Iron Man and Captain America and they headed for Stryker's base, determined to end things once and for all.
I'm not going to lie, I didn't like the way this chapter came out. Like it's decent, but I always try to pust myself to do better. Plus it's a bit shorter this time, so sorry. I'm going to try to do a short Fanfiction story for Halloween, although it's not guaranteed. And if it is, it would probably come out after Halloween. But anyways, hope you enjoyed this chapter and until next time.
