Spider-Man: Look out! It's your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man! With help from Moon Knight, I stopped Rouge and Black Cat from doing a big heist for the Kingpin. Apparently they were working from the inside, at least Black Cat was. She was working with Kingpin to help ME stop him. So we can be together again. I'm sorry, Felicia, but I can't live life the way you do. I'll stop Kingpin, in my own way.

Issue 6: Court Ordinance
Central Park, Manhattan. New York City.
A dimensional rift opens during the night at Central Park. Creatures of Grimm jump out of the portal and start trashing the area. But more importantly, the bestial mutant supervillain known as Sabretooth was sent flying out of the portal, landing on the ground. He quickly heals thanks to his rapid healing factor, shaking his head as he stands up, gritting his fangs while growling at the portal.
"Damn you…But that won't be enough to stop me!" Sabretooth growls, having been caught in a fight against mysterious opponents.
BGM-Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds OST-Theme of Wolverine
Unsheathing his Adamantium-laced claws, the feral mutant rushes towards the portal to kill his unknown opponents. Jumping through the portal is one of them, a black cat Faunus wielding a sword. She's Blake Belladonna, a Huntress of Beacon Academy and member of Team RWBY. With a furious battle cry, she dashes at Sabretooth with her weapon, as he's about to slash her with his claws. Swiftly, Blake vanishes and leaves behind an electric clone using her Shadow Semblance, shocking Sabretooth upon slashing it. The faunus huntress reappears, killing the rampaging Grimm with sword slashes and sword beams at startling speed before appearing behind Sabretooth, just as he recovers from the electrocution, grabs her by the throat, and lifts her up while choking her.
"Nowhere to run, kitty." mocked Sabretooth, grinning maliciously at her.
Shockingly, Blake smirks at the mutant, "Fine by me…"
Sabretooth is left confused by her confidence until he heard the sounds of a motorcycle and a "YEEEHAAAAW!" from the portal behind him. Just as he turns around, a yellow motorcycle jumped out of the portal and rams straight into his face, freeing Blake from his grasp. The motorcycle lands next to the faunus and was driven by her thrill-seeking partner, Yang Xiao Long.
Sabretooth groans while trying to stand on his feet from that surprise blow, "I hate kids…"
"And you hate Wolvie more." Yang quips with a smile.
"RRAAAAAAH!" And right on cue, the mutant superhero known as Wolverine lunges out of the portal and hits his mutant nemesis with a ferocious berserker slash, swiftly defeating Sabretooth as he falls to his own puddle of blood from that last slash.
"Damn you…Logan…" mutters Sabretooth, falling unconscious.
Wolverine smacks his metal claws together while staring at his defeated rival, "Next time, Sabretooth, try fightin' back." He mocks him before sheathing his claws back through the wrists.
BGM End
The X-Man takes out a depleted ISO-8 crystal from his costume and lifts it towards the dimensional rift. The crystal absorbs energy from the rift, shrinking it until it vanishes completely. "I'll leave Qrow to clean things up back there." says Logan, putting away the reenergized ISO-8 and facing the Huntresses-in-training, "Did any Grimm stumble through the rift?" He questioned them.
"Some, but I quickly killed them before they left the park." Blake answered.
"Good job, kid. Quickly earning yer stripes as an X-Man." Wolverine complimented, embarrassing the faunus as she takes the compliment to heart.
"Hey, what about me? I did the heavy lifting as a Dimensional Avenger!" Yang retorts, feeling jealous.
"You BOTH did good. Enough to allow you to stay at the Mansion 'til morning before headin' back to your dimension." Wolverine replied, allowing the Huntresses to sleep at the Xavier Institute.
"Thanks for the offer, but we want to check up on someone if we ever visit this world again." Yang responded.

Wolverine smiles as he has an idea on who she is talking about, "Understand. I'll see you kids later. And remind yer uncle we have a meeting at the bar tomorrow!" He says to Yang before walking away with the unconscious Sabretooth in tow.
"Will do!" Yang waves to him a goodbye as Blake hops onto the back of her motorcycle, "Ready, Blake?" She asks with a smile.
Blake nods, "Yeah."
Revving up her motorcycle, Yang drives herself and Blake out of Central Park and onto the streets of Manhattan. "Think we should call him that we're here?" Blake asks, referring to a certain individual.
"Nah. Let's surprise him so we can see the look on his face." Yang quipped.
"Are we heading to Queens or do you think he's out crime-fighting?" Blake asked.
Yang grins, "Knowing Peter Parker the way we do, I'm absolutely sure, that he has gotten himself into MASSIVE trouble tonight." She joked, which got a smile from her partner.

Meanwhile with Spider-Man…
BGM-Spider-Man: Web of Shadows OST-Act 1 City 1
Having left Black Cat at her penthouse, Spider-Man swings towards the rooftop of Spector Industries where he meets Moon Knight and Rouge the Bat. The bat thief smiles and waves at the webslinger as he lands, "Hey Spider. Sorry about the scuffle from earlier. Had to keep my cover on for a little longer."
"I understand. I mean, I HOPE to understand after you tell me WHY you're in this dimension and was working for Kingpin." Spidey replied.
Rouge smiles slyly, "Didn't Black Cat tell you? We were working on the inside to stop his operations, and to take back his Chaos Emerald."
"Chaos Emerald? But I thought they returned to Mobius after we beaten Goblin." retorts Spidey, a little surprised upon hearing the return of the Chaos Emeralds.
"Apparently they didn't and have been re-scattered across dimensions again." Rouge shrugs, "Luckily, GUN, SHIELD, and the Atlas Military are on the case to recover them all. I've been sent here to spy on Kingpin when we heard rumors he's in possession of a Chaos Emerald." She said.
"Is he?" Peter questioned.
Rouge nods with a serious look, "He is. Most of his new Tech Soldiers are being powered by Chaos Drives, crystallized chaos energy, and that could only be accomplished with a Chaos Emerald."
"With their power, Kingpin was able to launch this massive operation tonight." Moon Knight added.
"What? He made dinner plans?" Peter quipped.
"He has assembled a large, well equipped force to hand out multiple operations simultaneously." Moon Knight said stoically, ignoring his joke.
"He must be ordering take out." Peter snarked.
"Actually he's taking out one high tech firm after another. Stealing technology, destroying records; wreaking havoc upon the whole sector." Rouge quipped.
"Why would he do that?" Spidey questioned.
"Cause havoc in the markets, gain control over the use of valuable technology; there are many reasons." Moon Knight answered.
"Sounds like we may need to stop him." Spidey replied.
Rouge nods, "Indeed. A Chaos Emerald in that guy's chubby hands is a nightmare for everyone in this city."
"His forces are already at large. The heist involving you and Black Cat was just the beginning. We have to deal with them first before we can move on to the Kingpin himself." Moon Knight suggested.
"Rouge, you were working undercover. What else can you tell me about the high tech thugs of Mayor McFatty Pants?" Spidey asks the thief.
"Their technology is geared towards high rise operations, so expect them to hit facilities in skyscrapers throughout the city. In addition to the fliers, we should also watch out for the big heavy guys that can walk on walls." Rouge answered.
"Tell me about these heavy wall walking things." Peter requested.
"Kingpin has equipped a bunch of his baddies with these suits of armor that give them the ability to walk up walls. We've got to knock them down." Rouge explained.
Spidey nods in acknowledgement, "Bigger they are, the harder I have to hit them, but sure, I'm on it."
"WE'RE on it." Rouge corrected, "Got a call from Mockingbird before you showed up about Kingpin's thugs targeting an Oscorp research facility to rob for their ISO-8. It's over at the Upper West Side, so we should get a move on."
"Right. What about you, Moon Knight?" responded Spidey, turning to the other hero.
"I will patrol this area and destroy as many of Kingpin troops as I can, while protecting civilians caught in the crossfire." Moon Knight replied.
"Good luck." said Spidey, wishing his friend the best.
Moon Knight nods stoically, "Likewise." He said, watching Spidey and Rouge jump off his building and head towards the Oscorp research facility.
BGM End

Spidey swings through the air while Rouge flies by his side, as the duo reach the Upper West Side. "Over there! That building!" Rouge points to the skyscraper owned by Oscorp, which acts as a research facility. Tech Fliers are guarding the building for any do-gooders, while Tech Heavies finish installing a giant wall drill that'll make it easier to steal the ISO-8.
"What's that drill for?" asks Spidey, webstriking and then juggling a Tech Flier in midair with his webs.
"To drill into the building, duh." quips Rouge, divekicking a Flier off his glider. The other Fliers notice Rouge and shoot relentlessly at her, forcing the bat to fly away from their energy bullets, "I'll take care of the Fliers! You handle the Heavies!"
Spidey webzips to the skyscraper, sticking onto the wall and confronting the Heavies. "You jokers give us wallcrawlers a bad name!" He webs two armored thugs to the wall, "But you do well in the sticking department." One of the Heavies charges his energy to break free from his restraints, then slams the wall and unleashes a shockwave. Spidey jumps over the shockwave, webstriking the goon onto the wall. He swiftly dodges a punch from another Heavy, countering with a flurry of powerful punches to drain the armor's energy until it depletes. As the Heavy falls, Spidey webs and throws him onto another Heavy running towards him, knocking them both off the wall and fall to the sidewalk.
Meanwhile, Rouge is still flying away from Tech Fliers and their rapid gunfire. "You boys aren't very good fliers, are you? Leave flying to the pros!" said the bat thief, mocking her foes while doing a barrel roll over them and knocking each member of the group off their gliders with one kick per flier. After kicking down the last flier, she rips off a component from the glider, "Nice tech Fisk got you guys. Should help me find his employer." She said, flying away as the glider crashes into a rooftop.
"Hey Rouge! How do we turn off this drill?" Spidey asks, taking out the remaining Heavies near the wall drill.
Rouge takes out a few of her bombs from her person, "Have my keys right here!" She hurls the bombs at the drill, blowing it into pieces. Spidey notice the pieces falling to the busy streets below and quickly formulates a plan.
Just as Blake and Yang drive to the area, they were quick to notice the pieces of the wall drill falling towards them and civilians. As they scream, Spidey fires out a large web net that catches the debris, saving the civilians and unknowingly the lives of his Huntress friends.
BGM End
"Knew he was in trouble." Yang quips, smiling at the web net.
Rouge hovers near the webslinger on the wall, "Nice catch."
"Nice pitch. Calm down with it next time." Spidey quipped.
"It'll be less explosive." Rouge grinned.
"I saw you steal something from that glider. Is it a Chaos Drive?" Spidey asked.
Rouge unveils the glider component to him, "Just some tech that should help us uncover the source of their technology. I'll bring it to Moon Knight for analysis."
"Good thinking." Peter replied.
"Pays to be a thief." Rouge joked.
BGM-Spider-Man 3 (Game) OST-The City #5
"HEY! SPIDEY! YOOHOOO! DOWN HERE!" shouted Yang from down below, standing next to Blake on the sidewalk in hopes of catching his attention.
Spidey and Rouge heard her shouting and looks down, where the webslinger is surprised by the appearance of his old friends. "No way…" Peter muttered.
"Those girls from your fan club?" Rouge questioned.
"Yeah, but they're more than that. They're my best friends!" Spidey flips off the wall and lands in front of the Huntresses. "Blake! Yang! Man, it's so good to see you both in person again!" He said, happily embracing them into a group hug.
"It HAS been a while. How're you doing these days, Pete?" asked Blake, as the group lets go of their group hug.
"Same old, same old. Where's the rest of the fairy tale gang, Little Red Riding Hood and Snow White?" Spidey jokingly asked the two members of Team RWBY.
"Back at Beacon. This visit was sorta accidental." Yang answered.
Spidey crosses his arms with a smirk, "Heh. Sounds like my first visit to Remnant."
"But with a less explosive entry." Yang jokes around with her ex-boyfriend, getting a chuckle from him.
Rouge descends to meet the group, "I'm hearing a bit of history between you three."
"You're someone from Sonic's World." Blake realized.
"That's right, hon. Rouge the Bat. Pleasure to meet you two." Rouge shakes hands with the cat faunus.
"Likewise. My name is Blake Belladonna, and this is my friend, Yang Xiao Long." Blake introduced herself and her partner.
Yang smiles with a casual handwave gesture, "Sup."
"We weren't interrupting anything?" Blake shrugged.
"Nah. We just got done stopping a high-rise robbery." Rouge flap her wings and takes to the sky, "I'll see you later, Spidey. Gotta analyze this glider tech with Moon Knight and Mockingbird. We'll give you the night off to catch up with your girlfriends."
Spidey sheepishly rubs the back of his head, "Uh, they're not my girlfriends. Well, one of them was, but we sorta broke up. For now. I think. Uh, I dunno." He and Yang look at each other, as the latter giggles at his awkwardness.
"Don't let Black Cat know you were dating another black cat." Rouge teases while flying away.
"I wasn't dating THIS one!" Peter points at Blake, "I mean, we were. Kinda. We did went fishing. And got dinner. Uhhh…" He looks at Blake with his awkwardness, accidently making her blush, which got him blushing behind his mask, "S-Speaking about dinner, let's catch up at Micks."
"If it'll get you to stop embarrassing yourself." Blake quips with a smile, causing Yang to laugh as the Huntresses hop onto her motorcycle and follow Spider-Man to Mick's Diner.

Later at Mick's Diner…
BGM-Sonic Unleashed OST-Spagonia (Night)
"This place is what they call…Italian, right?" asked Yang, sitting together with Blake and the uncostumed Peter at a table in the diner.
"Yup. And these are the best fries in the city." Peter takes a fry from their bowl and eats it, inciting the Huntresses to do the same and find the fries are really good.
"Not bad. Do they serve fish fries?" Blake asked.
"If you ask Mick nicely." Peter smiled.
"So what's this about a high-rise robbery?" Yang asked him.
"You remember the stories I told you about Wilson Fisk? The Kingpin?" Peter replied.
Blake nods, "Yeah. He's your world's Torchwick."
"Except I can take him seriously as a threat. The entire city is under his control. He's been armoring up his thugs to wreak havoc everywhere. Even started a gang war earlier today. But I have everything under control." said Peter, taking another fry to eat. "But that's the status update of my world. What's been going on in yours? Why are you two here by accident?"
"Some Grimm were messing around with ISO-8, got juiced up with their power and somehow opened a dimensional rift to Earth. Wolverine was fighting Sabretooth at the time when Grimm interrupted them. When Sabretooth retreated into our world, Wolverine followed and got help from me, Blake, and Uncle Qrow to take him down and stop the ISO-enhanced Grimm." Yang answered, telling him of their mini adventure.
"Must've been fun." Peter commented.
Yang frowns, "Would've been way more fun if you were around. Things aren't the same without you." She said somberly, having missed Peter hanging out with her and the rest of Team RWBY at Beacon.
"Sorry." Peter frowned, "But I have tons of responsibilities here, which makes it hard for visits or answer interdimensional phone calls." He said, feeling guilty for their breakup.
Yang then smiles to cheer up the mood, "Hey, I understand. Heck, thanks to you, Remnant has never felt more united after Goblin. Even the White Fang are starting to be nice."
"Excluding Adam's splinter group." Blake retorted casually.
"EXCLUDING Adam's splinter group." Yang quipped, getting a chuckle from her ex-boyfriend.
"So, what about MJ? What's going on with her?" Blake asked about Peter's other ex-girlfriend.
"She was in the hospital for a few hours, but she got better." Peter replied, much to their shock.
"What happened?" Yang retorted.
"Venom happened." Peter replied with a serious tone.
"That alien Grimm monster that used to be your childhood friend?" Blake remarked.
Peter nods somberly, "I still feel bad for what happened to Eddie. I looked up to him as a big brother, but after both our parents died, we grew distance. It wasn't until I joined the Bugle when we started seeing each other again. But ever since that Sin-Eater blunder…" He facepalms, shaking his head with a heavy sigh, "Ol' Eddie never recovered from that. I ruined his life. I created Venom. I get it. It's on both of us in some small way."
Blake frowns, cupping her hands on Peter's to comfort him. "It's okay. Don't be too hard on yourself. You can still save him." She encourages him.
"I hope so. I fear he has been completely subsumed by the symbiote. He acted different the last time we fought. His symbiote was different. I'm…" Peter pauses, not wanting to reveal to the Huntresses that he's bonded to the corruptive Black Suit, "…n-not sure how to save him."
"You'll find a way. You always do." Yang reassures her ex-boyfriend. "But not tonight. Sounds like you've had a rough day. Know where we can crash for tonight? Wolverine offered a sleepover at the Xavier Institute, but that's upstate last I remember." She asked.
"You can sleepover at Avengers Mansion. There's something I've been working on over there that you might like." Peter replied, offering them sleep at Avengers Mansion.
Yang smiles, "Looking forward to it."

Symbiote Hive
BGM-Dragon Ball Xenoverse OST- Cutscene: "Theme of Towa"
Cinder walks through a corridor towards the throne room to see for herself if Salem had returned from her trip to Mobius and Remnant. As she is about to exit the corridor, she notices a dimensional rift opening in the throne room. Salem jumps out of the portal, but immediately lands on her knees while clenching to her head in pain, suspiciously wearing her Venomized mask with the same crimson spiral for eyespots that Venom had earlier. Cinder hides behind a corner in the corridor, quickly realizing that Salem is fighting her symbiote for control of her body.
"Cursed symbiote…I am your master now…Dread…me…us…WE…I…in… control…AAAAAAAARGH!" Salem pounds the ground with her fist, cracking it while furiously roaring for control over her body. She burst out powerful energy out of her body, which seemingly helped her regain control of the symbiote as she retracts her mask, panting heavily on her knees.
As she recovers while getting up on her two feet, Salem can sense that Cinder is hiding at the corridor. "Reveal yourself. I know you are there." She proclaims calmly.
Cinder complies and enters the throne room while pretending she didn't watch her master lose control of her symbiote. "Yes, master. You should be happy to know we were successful creating Symbiote Pods hidden throughout the city during your absence." Cinder informs her firmly.
"Good. The symbiosis is underway. I can feel it." Salem responds as she takes a seat on her throne.
"Was your mission in Mobius and Remnant successful?" Cinder asked her.
"It was. None of them have a clue of what's coming." Salem answered cryptically, "And what of Spider-Man's reputation?" She questioned.
"We devised a simple, yet effective means to turn the city against him." Cinder replied. "But…may I ask?" She asked.
"Speak your mind." Salem allowed.
"Why such a fixation on Spider-Man? Shouldn't our focus be on the Avengers or the X-Men? Other superheroes that can pose an actual threat to our plans?" Cinder asked a question that has been bugging her for some time.
Salem says calmly, "Heroes like the Avengers focus on the big threats foremost. Never threats that start small but gradually become too big for them to overcome. I told you once before that Spider-Man plays a key role in my war against Ozpin. Recall his profound actions on Remnant. Never before the world was united. Not since my era, when I led an army against unstoppable odds. He has become the face of this 'New Age of Heroes'. He has become a symbol of hope, from here to Remnant. Which is why he must be SNUFFED out. Divide him from his peers. The people he has sworn to protect. Turn him at his darkest hour, so he may realize his TRUE destiny." She said ominously.

The next morning at Avengers Mansion…
BGM-Shadow the Hedgehog OST-Team Chaotix
"So was is it that you wanted to show us?" asked Yang, as she and Blake follow Spidey to one of the mansion's sub-basements.
"Since you love showing off your fancy motorcycle at Beacon a lot, I've been developing something to one-up it." Spidey replied while taking the elevator.
"Is it another Extreme Gear to race inside a black hole with?" quips Yang, sternly glaring at her ex-boyfriend as she feels jealous when she heard about that adventure on Mobius.
"Oh." Peter chuckles nervously, "Sonic told you 'bout that adventure. Don't worry. It's something JUST as cool!"
As soon as the elevator descended to the sub-basement and opens its door, the heroic trio walks out to be amazed at the sight of a red-and-blue colored, highly modified, high-tech motorcycle. "TA-DA! Ladies, drool in awe as I introduce you to the amazing Spider-Cycle!" Spidey introduces them to his new motorcycle with amazing enthusiasm and exciting gestures.
Yang whistles while checking out the Spider-Cycle, "Amazing! Even a dimension away, you're still thinking about me."
"Knowing you, it must have special features. What are they?" Blake questions him.
Before Spidey could brag about his new vehicle, he receives a call through his suit. "I will brag about my motorcycle right after I answer this call." He quips, touching his earpiece while answering the phone call, "Hello?"
'Spider-Man, it's me.' Moon Knight replied.
"Moon Knight?! How did you get this number?" Spidey retorted.
'Mockingbird lent it to me. I've received information that the Kingpin's men may be making an attempt to rob or destroy the Daily Bugle. Are you familiar with it?' Moon Knight asked him.
"Uh, do you READ the newspaper?" Peter quipped.
'I suggest you go there at once and rendezvous with Mockingbird and Rouge. It may be a diversion, so I will monitor Fisk Industries for unusual activity.' Moon Knight suggested.
"I'll check it out." replied Peter, hanging up the call. "And I was supposed to meet with MJ this morning, but Kingpin is apparently targeting the Daily Bugle."
"Then you and Blake should check it out so you won't lose your job. I'll go meet with MJ." Yang suggested.
"Thanks Yang. C'mon, BB!" Spidey flip-jumps onto his Spider-Cycle, "You wanted to know what my Spider-Cycle can do. Hop on and stick to it for the experience of a lifetime!" He revs up his motorcycle.
"This should be interesting." Blake says dryly, then looks at Yang, "Say hi to MJ for me." She waves goodbye to her partner as she approaches the Spider-Cycle.
As she sits behind Spider-Man, Blake puts on a helmet. "Shouldn't you be wearing a helmet?" She asked him.
"I'm wearing a mask." Spidey quipped. "LET'S RIDE!" The webslinger exclaims as he drives out of the basement, while performing a wheelie that frightens Blake while Yang smiles and waves goodbye to her friends.

"WOOHOOOO!" Spider-Man hollers, driving his Spider-Cycle as fast as he can alongside the normal traffic. "How're you doing back there?!" He asks his passenger, Blake.
"Still alive!" Blake retort, shouting through the loud noise of the traffic. "You HAVE driven this before, right?" She asked.
"I don't even have a learner's permit." Peter quipped.
"You WHAT?!" Blake retorts with a surprised expression on her face.
"It's New York. Who needs a car?" Peter quips calmly.
"Then why did you build this thing?" Blake asks loudly.
"To do THIS!" Spidey swerves towards the wall of a skyscraper, and as his vehicle touches it the surface, it rides up, diagonally across the building.
"You're riding up the wall? This shouldn't be possible…" Blake remarks in awe of the Spider-Cycle's wall-running feature.
"Forgot I'm a super-genius? I engineered the bike to run smoothly at any angle. And added rocket boosters to maximize its speed rate." Spidey presses the motorcycle's holographic interface to activate the rocket boosters, causing his bike to get a spectacular speed boost. The Spider-Cycle zooms towards the top of the skyscraper, and when it reaches the top, it leaps high through the sky.
"WOOOOOAAAAAAAH!" Blake screams for her life while high in the air.
"I may have showed off a little too much!" Spidey yells as they fall from a tremendous height.
"Show off something to save our lives!" Blake retorts angrily with a stern glare at the webslinger.
"Got it! One web bridge coming right up!" Spidey presses the web icon on the interface, using GPS tracking to find the best places to shoot webs in front of and behind them to create a web bridge that the Spider-Cycle rides across towards the Daily Bugle, "You can stop being airsick, B. I just saved our lives."
"You are a WORSE driver than Yang!" Blake retorted.
"I know, but it's been a while. Just wanted to have a little fun with you, and you can't tell me that wasn't fun." said Spidey, explaining his reason for showing off.
Blake pauses in thought, then blushes with a smile. She hugs Peter from behind, "Yeah…That was pretty fun."
BGM End
The Spider-Cycle arrives and stops at the rooftop of the Daily Bugle, where Kingpin is allegedly targeting for his operations. "Bugle's still intact. Odd. No tech thieves or wall drills in sight, but I can still hear Jameson ranting about me again." Peter jokes, as Blake gets off of his motorcycle.
Her cat ears flinch upon hearing sirens, which are getting louder and louder. She goes to the edge of the roof and looks down, spotting several police cars in a rush as they drive frantically pass the Bugle. "I've got a feeling that the Bugle is not the target." Blake quipped.
"They're driving to something. Let's investigate the commotion." says Spidey, while Blake hops back onto his motorcycle, "And I promise to not showoff as much."
Blake smirks, "As long as you get us there in one piece."
BGM-Spider-Man: Web of Shadows OST-Black Cat Chase
The Spider-Cycle fires a web bridge that Spider-Man drives across towards a building, away from the Daily Bugle. He rides down the wall until he reaches the streets and follows the police to the source of the commotion.
"SPIDER-MAN!" Upon hearing his name being called out, Spidey looks to his right and spots fellow Avenger, Mockingbird, catching up with him on her Sky-Cycle. The SHIELD agent is also joined by Rouge flying by her side.
"Mockingbird, what's going on?" Spidey asked her.
"We've been set up! The Bugle WASN'T their target!" Mockingbird replied.
"Then what IS their target?" Blake asked.
"It's the courthouse!" answered Mockingbird, as the heroes and police are nearing the city's courthouse, which is being attacked by the Tech Soldiers.
"Should've known! Clever using the Bugle as a false lead!" Spidey remarked, revving his motorcycle and driving faster to the courthouse.
BGM End
Police officers are under siege, hiding behind their cars and wielding their guns as the grounded Tech Soldiers shoot at them with everything they have. While they are busy attacking the police, some of the Tech Soldiers were tackled from behind by the Spider-Cycle. "Spider-Man sighted! Get him!" A Tech Soldier informs his fellow thugs.
BGM-Spider-Man: Web of Shadows OST-Courthouse
While Rouge flies over the thugs, Mockingbird jumps off her Sky-Cycle above them. She swiftly takes out her battle staves and screws them together into a bo-staff, slamming her weapon on a thug, knocking him down. "Not allowing Spidey to hog all the attention!" Bobbi wields her bo-staff like a pro, swinging it and smacking thugs, then quickly breaks apart into two poles again, dual-wielding them to barrage a Tech Heavy with powerful hits before kicking him down.
As Spidey drives to a parking spot, Blake takes off her helmet and jumps off the Spider-Cycle. She ensnares a tech thug with the black ribbon of Gambol Shroud and zips towards him, hitting him with her blade. The huntress swiftly dodges bullets as she backflips over a Heavy, using him as cover. She strikes his legs, then quickly slides under them as he falls. She dashes at the group of thugs, using her incredible speed and dual-wields her sword and sheath to slash through them rapidly, moving between them so quickly, they can't even target her. She uppercuts three thugs into the air and follows them up, barraging them with a rapid spin attack before blowing them away with a sword beam.
While Rouge joins the fight, Spidey meets with a police officer who is giving out orders to his men. "Return fire! Keep them busy!" The officer then turns to Spidey, "They're surrounding the building!" He points to a Tech Flier dropping off a Heavy in front of the courthouse. The armored thug is seen carrying a bomb on his back, throwing and attaching it onto the wall of the building. "Get to the bombs! They're trying to blow up the courthouse!" He points to a bomb disposal unit.
Spidey nods, "We're on it, officer!" He zips to a bomber and takes him out with a Web Strike, "Rouge! We gotta beat the bombers and dispose of the bombs! Mockingbird, Blake, hold off the others!" He ordered.
"We got your back!" said Blake, kicking a thug down.
Rouge tackles a bomber and barrages him with kicks until he's knocked down. She grabs one of the active bombs and flies to a disposal unit. "Here you go, gentlemen." She throws the bomb into the disposal unit, which safely contains the explosion.
"Don't shoot the superhero thank you very much!" Spidey dodges gunfire between the thugs and the police, webstriking a bomber and yanking a bomb to his back. "Heads up, I got a live one!" He quickly swings to a disposal unit and places the bomb inside it. "Thanks fellas. I got a BANG out of that." He chuckled.
Blake sighs in tiredness from his pun while backflipping from the ground pound of a Tech Heavy, "Your jokes haven't improved in the slightest."
"Sorry. I can't help it sometimes." Spidey quips, webbing the Heavy to make it easier for the faunus to take down.
"Keep working on them, Webs. You'll make a decent comedian one day." grins Rouge, dropping off the last bomb in a disposal unit, "That's the last of the bombs and bombers."
"Good. All that's left is to take out the rest of these wimps." said Mockingbird, harshly poking her stave on the face of a thug.

Suddenly, something powerful and intimidating is coming their way that triggers the Spider-Sense, "Hold up! Dessert is about to be dropped off! And it's big and doesn't look tasty!" Spidey looks up, spotting two helicopters approaching the courthouse. Each helicopter drops off a walking arsenal. Large, red-colored Tech Mechs that are packing enough weaponary to rival War Machine.
"Didn't know Fisk had THOSE built!" remarks Rouge, as she was unaware the crimeboss had Tech Mechs while she was working undercover for him.
A Tech Mech launches a hail of gunfire from its machine guns at the heroes and police, killing several officers that were caught in its full barrage. "SPREAD OUT!" shouted Mockingbird, as the heroes quickly jump away from the gunfire.
"These mechs look as powerful as Atlesian Paladins!" Blake commented.
"Meaning this shouldn't be a problem for you, since your team destroyed one." quips Spidey, recall hearing Team RWBY destroying an Atlesian Paladin a while ago.
"Yeah, a PROTOTYPE!" retorts Blake, quickly jumping away from more gunfire, "This is as advanced as the advanced Paladins!"
"We'll have to find a way to stun them! Rouge and I will handle one! You two handle the other!" Mockingbird ordered.
The SHIELD agent rushes towards a Tech Mech, quickly avoiding its rapid gunfire while putting together her bo-staff. As she is about to reach it, the Mech shoots at a car near her, which explodes and blows her away. "SCREW KICK!" shouted Rouge, delivering a powerful spin kick at the front of the Mech, which barely had the power to push it back. Rouge was surprised that her kick didn't leave a scratch, as the Mech launches a missile that hits her, sending her flying and crashing onto a car.
Rouge growls with anger while recovering on the car, "That thing's as stubborn as Omega."
"We'll need to disable its weapons! I'll draw its attention!" said Mockingbird, getting up from her injuries. She runs around the Mech, managing to get close and strike it, which didn't do much damage, but it was enough to get its attention. She backflips from gunfire, giving Rouge the chance to plant a bomb on the back of the Mech and on its guns. With a smile, Rouge triggers the explosives, destroying its guns and temporarily stunning the mech.
"There's more where that came from!" Rouge throws a string of bombs at the Mech, causing heavy damage to the point of permanently disabling the machine.
Meanwhile, Spidey and Blake are struggling with the other Tech Mech. "How did you and the girls destroy the Paladin again?" asked Spidey, blinding two of the mech's laser sights.
"Severed its arms and took advantage of Yang's Semblance, but she's not here!" Blake replies while taking cover behind a car.
"Have no fear, kitten! I have something to surpass her rage power!" quips Spidey, flip-jumping away from gunfire.
"Is it a new gadget or one of your Suit Powers-?" Suddenly, Blake was cut off when her cover exploded by a rocket, sending her flying onto a building as the impact severely drains her Aura.
"BLAKE!" Spidey shouts, watching her fall to the ground. Blake was nearly knocked unconscious, lying on her belly while being targeted for a killing blow from the Mech. Enraged from seeing his friend about to be killed, Spidey switches to his Black Suit and furiously grabs a car. "GET AWAY FROM HER!" He hurls the car at the mech, stunning it. He jumps onto each arm of the mech, furiously ripping off its machine guns and throwing them away. "Time to open up this tin can!" He jumps onto its large faceplate and effortlessly opens it, revealing the thug piloting it. "Since you can't play nice, you get a time-out mister." He grabs and throws the thug out of the mech in cold fury, then presses on the self-destruction button. He jumps off the mech and grabs Blake, swinging her away as it explodes into pieces.
The destruction of their mechs was enough to convince the remaining Tech Soldiers that they have lost. A helicopter descends to their location as they hurry towards its open hatch. "The mission's blown!" said a Tech Soldier, entering the helicopter with his colleagues. As soon as the hatch closes, the helicopter flies away to parts unknown.

Blake groans, clenching onto her aching head as Peter kindly helps her to her feet. "You okay?" He asks sincerely.
"I'm fine." said Blake, then takes a look at his Black Suit, "Spidey, that suit…"
"Like it?" Symbiote Spidey crosses his arms to look cool to her.
Blake smiles, gently touching the white spider-emblem on his chest, "Yeah…Always thought black would look good on you."
"If you like it, I should continue wearing this one." Spidey flirted.
"But isn't this the same suit that Venom wears?" Blake asked.
"An unintended gift from my bro. Don't worry. It's under my control." Spidey replied, partially lying since the suit has been fighting for control.
"You're absolutely sure?" Blake questioned him.
Peter nods, "Positive."
Meanwhile, Mockingbird was on a call with someone through her earpiece. She hangs up and approaches the teenagers alongside Rouge. "Got a call from Moon Knight. Wants us to head back to Spector Industries. He seems to have new intel on the source of Kingpin's weapons." Bobbi informs the group.
Spidey jumps back onto his Spider-Cycle, "Then let's not keep him waiting! Hop on, kitty cat!" He revs up his motorcycle. Blake puts on her helmet and sits behind him, as he drives away from the courthouse with Mockingbird and Rouge following them with their own source of transportation.
Beacon Academy, Vale. Blake's Dimension.
BGM-Breath of Fire III OST-Dragon Slayer
Meanwhile in the World of Remnant, Professor Ozpin is attending a private meeting in his office at Beacon Academy. Accompanying the headmaster in this meeting is fellow staff member, Glynda Goodwitch, and Yang's uncle, Qrow Branwen. Also attending the meeting is General James Ironwood through a hologram.
"We've secured the third Chaos Emerald, and it won't be long until Winter's team secures the fourth. Black Widow's skills continue to impress, and I've never seen a combat robot as remarkable as E-123 Omega. But Shadow's abilities…To think a hedgehog so small possesses such unbelievable power." Ironwood reports to his friends about the mission collecting the missing Chaos Emeralds.
"He is referred to as the 'Ultimate Lifeform' for a reason, James. We're lucky to have him on our side." Ozpin replied, "Anything to report regarding Salem?"
Ironwood shakes his head, "No. But I'll be ready and contact you if anything happens. Ironwood out." He turns off his hologram.
"It's been two months since the Goblin War, and we haven't heard anything new about her." Goodwitch said.
"Not surprising. That war hit everyone hard. She's been hiding in the shadows to recover her strength until her next move." Qrow commented.
"But what could that be?" Glynda questions with a shrug. "The Relics are gone. The only power to replace them are the Chaos Emeralds, and the ISO-8 that was left behind from the war."
"Don't you think I've been looking into it?" Qrow retorts. "Besides her Grimm being attracted to any leftover ISO-8, I have no clue what she's been up to. She's been quiet. A little TOO quiet. Both her and Cinder." He rubs the back of his head while walking towards the elevator, "But I can drown my worries with beer once Logan buys me one."
Goodwitch shakes her head in disappointment and stares at him sternly, "Your friendship with Wolverine is worsening your health."
"Good thing we share blood types so he can transfer me his healing factor." Qrow quips with a smile at her.
"Take care of yourself, Qrow. And be careful. I'm getting a bad feeling about Earth at the moment." Ozpin warns him to stay alert.
Qrow scoffs with a smile, "Not surprising. Earth faces worse threats than Remnant nearly every day. But don't worry, I'll keep an eye out for anything weird." He promises his cohorts before exiting the office, leaving Ozpin with Glynda as he thinks to himself in silence and wonders what Salem is planning at the moment.

KFX Here: Blake and Yang return to complicate Peter's love life, while Salem is showing signs of losing control of her own symbiote. I'll TRY to have Ozpin to serve some important supporting role since he won't be directly involved in the symbiote invasion. Perhaps have him contact Spidey and give him brief backstory on Salem while hiding some important secrets from him. Who knows, and we'll see.
