They make quick work of the Demons as a officer car comes up to them, who they assume is Davis. "You know we can't have vigilantes trespassing or doing illegal searches." Davis tells them.
"Yeah, we know." Peter says.
"That's why I brought a warrant." Davis says as he shows the warrant. "So what do you say the three of us do some completely legal searching?" He asks them.
"Eh, it takes some of the fun out of it." Felicia comments as they walk up to him.
"What's your name?" Peter asks
"Officer Jefferson Davis. Call me Jeff. And you are?" He asks them.
"Uh..." Peter tries hiding his identity.
"Just messing. Son's a fan of the both of you." Davis says to them.
"So, that warrant cover breaking down doors?" Peter asks.
"Not without a lot of extra paperwork." Davis tells them.
"Okay, let's find another way in." Peter says.
"There must be a skylight somewhere on top of the building." Felicia suggests.
"Best place to start." Peter agrees with her and makes their way up top.
They go around the back of the building and find a way in. They make it inside. They see nothing but darkness and broken down supplies everywhere.
"It feels like we entered a horror movie." Peter states.
"Yeah, and we know the funny guy is the first one to die, so it was nice knowing you." Felicia says to him.
"Haha. Very funny. Jeff, you out there? I'm doing my best to refrain from doing knock knock jokes." Peter asks.
"And trust me, it's killing him." Felicia states.
"Appreciate it. You think you can open the doors?" Jeff asks them.
"Child's play." Felicia says as she gets to work on the door mechanism and opens it.
Jeff enters and they all look around the place. "Okay, there appears to be nothing illegal in sight." He states to them.
"Kinda anticlimactic, huh?" Peter asks.
"That's only at first glance thouugh, never judge a book by its cover." Felicia says and starts looking around the building.
"You even know what you're looking for?" Peter asks her.
"Well, this place has been here a while. Bootleggers used to use it back in the day." Jeff says to them.
"And those guys love to have hidden rooms." Felicia says, searching a cargo container.
"And you're a pro at snuffling out secret rooms." Peter says, jokingly.
Felicia searches around and finds something. "Hey, Spider, get over here and give me a hand with this door." She says and they use their combined strength to open the hidden door and find an empty container.
"And we found a whole lot of nothing." Felicia states at her discovery.
"Where there's one secret room, there could be more. Noice anything on the floor?" Jeff asks them and they see scratches made from the doors.
"We find scratches, we find more doors." Peter states and they go back to looking.
It takes them a while and they've found several different when Felicia notices something wrong with the floor. She kneels down and sees that a part of the floor is above the average surface and it has hinges at the end.
"Hey, guys, I think I found something!" She calls out to them.
They make their way to her and see it.
"Yeah, I see lights." Peter states as Felicia bends down to it.
"Help me lift, Spider." She says and he helps her lift it up.
They see a entire tunnel underneath.
"That isn't spooky at all." Peter states.
"It must be an old bootleggers tunnel." Jeff says to them.
They walk down and see the tunnel leads somewhere.
"Let's see where this goes." Felicia says to them and they follow her into a newer building and see it's been emptied.
"Damn, the Demons must've beaten us here already." Felicia tells them as she looks trough all of the emptied boxes of what she assumes to be weapons.
"How could they've beaten us here?" Peter asks as he does the same as her.
"There must be a backdoor. This place looks like it used to be a hell of an armory." Jeff states seeing the size of the crates and Felicia and Peter find tasers, smoke bombs, anything that couldn't harm people.
"Looks like they don't have plans on leaving people alive." Felicia says to Peter. "I have the feeling you're right." Peter says to her as they hear a engine to a truck.
They keep looking and find a backdoor and Demons are loading up the weapons.
"Okay, Jeff, stay here. Me and Cat are gonna go take them down." Peter tells him.
"Okay, I'll be here for backup." Jeff says agreeing with them.
The trucks start and Peter, Felicia sprig to action. Peter webs the back of the trucks and uses his strength to stop them from driving off. The Demons exit the trucks and start shooting. Peter and Felicia dodge the shots causing Peter to drop the webs and one car drives off.
"Let's take them down, Spider." Felicia says and they get to work stopping them.
One of them has a sword with dark energy and blasts a wave of energy at Peter. Felicia brings down a part of construction work on the Demon, bringing him down. More backup for them comes in.
"Spider-Man, you go track down that truck, me and Jeff will finish these guys!" Felicia tells Peter.
"I can't just leave you!" Peter states.
"I can handle these guys, go!" She demands him and Peter decides to do as she says.
Peter quickly tracks down their truck and tries stopping them. The driver gets distracted by Spider-Man on his roof and doesn't notice the gas truck heading towards them. They slam into the truck, sending Peter flying. Peter quickly webs the truck to stop it from crashing and it crashes above a train track and it's heading towards them.
"Great! Now the 3 decides to run on time!" Peter quips as he uses all the strength he can muster by himself to yank the truck back up and sees that the Demons are coming back at him. Peter didn't have time to react when a police car comes speeding in and crashes into the truck. Peter keeps moving the gas truck free when Felicia exits the car and sees a Demon aiming his gun at Peter. She quickly leaps on and kicks him down, and helps get Jeff free from the wreckage.
Later, the news get ahold on what happened and they had a ambulance send for Jeff. MJ sneaks onto the scene and Felicia spots her.
"Excuse me, miss, this is an authorized personnel only area. You allowed to be here?" She asks MJ.
"As much as you. After that auction house thing, the Bugle put me on the city beat. Which means I get to focus full time on real stories like this...and the Demons." MJ explains as she sneaks her way towards the ambulance.
"You do realize you're putting a target on your back the closer you get, right?" Felicia asks her.
"The closer I get, the better chance the three of us have a chance of stopping them." MJ says as she goes to ambulance.
"The three of us?" Felicia asks, remembering that MJ said she didn't want anything to do with their secret life a few short years ago.
"Officer Davis! Mary Jane Watson, Daily Bugle." MJ says to Davis.
"No comment." Davis states to her.
"I don't blame you." MJ starts with. "But these people are gonna tell thsi story, with or without you. And they thrive on controversy." She states to him.
"And what's your angle?" Davis asks as he gets brought into the ambulance.
"I don't have one. I just listen." She states to him.
"Okay, get in." Davis agrees and she enters the ambulance and they leave.
"Wow. She is good." Peter compliments as they leave. "You know, maybe we should go home and get some sleep."
"That's a good idea. We haven't had a good rest since Fisk." Felicia comments on his idea.
"That was maybe two days ago." Peter states.
"My point." Felicia says as they make their way back home.
They start getting into bed when Peter's phone goes off while he's in the shower. Felicia looks and sees it's a web alert. "Hero cop. Jefferson Davis. Exclusive interview."
"Huh, it looks like MJ's story just got published by the Bugle." Felicia tells Peter through the bathroom door.
"Seems like she's gonna be busy for a while." Peter states and exits the bathroom.
Next morning, Peter and Felicia start getting ready to start the day when their phone goes off. "Hello?" Felicia asks. "Hey, did you see my story?" They hear MJ asks a stent put on speaker.
"Yeah, Robbie must be pretty happy with you." Felicia tells her.
"Yeah, it went pretty viral fast. And get this, Mayor Osborn is giving Officer Davis an award this afternoon." MJ tells her.
"Wait, isn't his campaign ...oh, I see what he's doing." Peter states.
"Yeah, we all do. You guys planning on being there?" MJ asks them.
"Yeah, we don't have much to do today. I was gonna stop by F.E.A.S.T., see if May needs help with anything." Felicia says.
"Then I'll see you there." MJ says and hangs up.
Peter's spider phone (Felicia begged him to stop calling it that) starts to ring and he sees its from Jeff. "Hey there, Jeff. Congrats on the ceremony today." Peter tells him
"Yeah, I'm just a little nervous. Look, I'm calling to say we got a report of Demons being active around a Fisk construction site. My wife will kill me if I were to not return in time for the ceremony." Jeff tells him.
"Don't worry, I'll swing by myself and take a look." Peter says and hangs up. "Looks like we both have day plans. I'll see you at the ceremony." Peter says and gets his costume on and leaps off.
"Just try not doing anything stupid as usual." Felicia says, knowing he can't hear her.
Peter make it to the construction site to see some trucks from Consolidated Shipping leave the site. He starts hearing gunfire and swings up to see men holding Fisk's men hostage. "Find the rest. Boss wants them dead." A Demon says to a worker.
"Okay, this is not good." Peter whispers. "Cat, I'm here." Peter tells his partner.
"And what can you see?" Felicia asks.
"Looks like the Demons are taking the territory." Peter guesses after hearing them say that.
"You sure you got this?" Felicia asks, worried for him.
"Yeah, I got this." Peter says.
He starts making his way slowly through all of the Demons. He make it though the construction site and stops them from killing Fisk's men. Peter takes one of their phones and sees someone's calling. He answers it and sees non other than Wilson Fisk.
"Hey, Willie." Peter says to him.
"You." Fisk states annoyed.
"Nice jumpsuit. Slimming." Peter states, mockingly.
"Stay out of my business." Fisk commands.
"Wait, the Demons, who's their leader?" Peter asks, hoping he knows.
"Keep my men alive, maybe I'll tell you." Fisk says and hangs up.
"Saving bad guys from other bad guys." Peter recaps what he has to do for information. "Not exactly how I thought today would go when I got up this morning."
He saves all of Fisk's men and runs into a bigger powered guy with massive size. He saves all of Fisk's men before calling him back.
"Fisk, your men are safe. Your turn, who's leading the Demons?" He asks hoping he's a man of his word.
"Maybe he's there. Maybe he isn't. Check the roof." Fisk says and hangs up.
"I've missed these cryptic Fisk talks." Peter says to himself and makes it to the roof and sees another Demon kill a worker. Peter makes quick work to web their chopper before they take off. Peter uses his strength and the chopper starts flying off and he attaches the web to a junction box. The chopper pulls off the box and is attached to the helicopter and swings into a crane.
Peter runs and webs the chopper to stop it and his senses pick up the crane swinging at him. It hits him and sends him flying across and towards the ground. He quickly wakes up and webs the crane to keep it from falling on civilians below him.
Felicia just makes it outside F.E.A.S.T. when she happened to notice a helicopter swinging a box around. As she sees it, Yuri calls her.
"I'm getting reports on a helicopter, with a...wrecking ball?" Yuri asks completely confused.
"Yeah, you know as much as me. I've got some catching up to do." Felicia tells her and hangs up. "I turn my back for eight seconds, and this happens." She says to herself and runs to catch up.
In the sky, Peter is chasing the helicopter. The Demons start shooting rockets at him as he dodges all of them when he also gets a call from Yuri.
"That helicopter is destroying the city." She states the obvious.
"I know." Peter tells her.
"You need to bring it down. Can't you superhero any faster?" Yuri asks.
"Working on it, Yuri." Peter says and goes back to chasing it. It crashes near a building and Peter uses it to swing up and crashes the chopper. As it crashes, Peter uses his webs to stop it from impacting.
"Yuri, I've got the Demons, but..."
"But what?" She asks.
"You might wanna bring a latter." He states and swings off for the ceremony.
He makes it to the ceremony and finds Felicia easily through the crowd. "So, I turn my back and you're chasing a helicopter with a wrecking ball though the city?" Felicia asks him.
"Yeah, I know." Peter says in defeat.
"So, hows it go?" She asks, curiously.
"I think this gang war might officially be over. There's still some loose ends that need tied up, but over all...I think we got the Demons on the run. But a truck drove away from the place called Consolidated shipping. I know nothing about it...but I don't know how it fits in." Peter explains.
"Well, after this, we can focus more time on it, together. Not letting you go out on your own again after today." Felicia states as Norman is handing Jeff the medal.
"It's my honor to present Officer Jefferson Davis this Medal of Honor." Norman says and gets a phone call and gets pulled away.
Peter's senses go off and Felicia notices. They look and see several men are all glowing dark when they explode.
"Get down!" Peter shouts and shields Felicia
Everything goes silent for Felicia when she gets up and sees that Peter protected her and that he's injured. "Peter!" She shouts and moves him away to see a kid who was also injured but seemed okay, considering he went to find his father. "Peter, speak to me!" Felicia knows she should try to stop the men but she can't leave Peter's side. This is...until she hears a familiar voice with the Demons.
"Enough! We have to leave, now!" The voice yells and Felicia looks up and sees Martin Li. She remembered being told by May this morning that he was going out of town. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. The man who she volunteered to work at his place is the man who almost got Peter killed but she knows with his healing, he'll be okay. Thankfully.
