First off. WOW. That's a lot of reviews. Second of all, hello and welcome.
Liamrodhudson331: I think Peke has no actual gender and the transformation was only because the artist wanted to draw them as a possible girl as a one time thing. Saruyama is high on emotions and coming to grips with Spider-Man and Norman, who literally died as He, or so He thought, were finally getting along. Captain Marvel... Sadly I will have to use the character since She is part of the MCU, but that isn't to say I can't alter her in some ways to be more palatable. Plus as I said before, She would get along with Gid and Selphie, especially in a love-triangle. I see it now.
Also notes from a... lengthy PM:
-This Yuuki Rito is more-or-less a skin for MCU Peter Parker, with the added benefit/detraction of Rito's wants and desires. The path He walks now is one I see helping him one day be a king, unlike Canon Rito who still denies that fact even after confessing to Lala. The endgame is a more mature Lala and Rito.
-This fic will not shut up about the MCU because most kids in said universe also will not shut up about the MCU, as Homecoming shows, intrusive? Maybe, but honestly... Dozens of people are now able to fly in the sky, why wouldn't you talk about it?
"I said No, it's too risky."
Adrian Toomes sat at a desk, disrupting some of the profits they had made in the past week, The business was doing find enough as is and materials were easy enough to collect...
That didn't stop Phineas Mason from getting some big ideas in his head.
The tinkerer himself had a chalkboard displaying an idea for a redesign for his wing-suit, as He went into detail "But boss, with the high-Altitude vacuum seal, we could go for [THE BIG ONE]" He said making quotation marks for that specific point
Adrian was more than alittle against it. "The big one could lose us just as much we are to gain, Hell even more!"
The big one was a known shipment of valuable and dangerous goods that were being shipped from out of the city to upstate New York, devices and gizmos that could surely fund his family for at least a century, the only problem is-
"I'm not going to steal from Avengers tower!" The shipment would be traveling to a specialized compound owned by the bastards who forced him into this business in the first place "We don't need those costumed freaks getting weary that We exist, We have enough problems since Fisk is moving his business elsewhere, so I don't even want to think about Stark or his croonies until after They leave the city."
Phineas sighed and pushed the board away, clearly disappointed that He wouldn't get to build his awesome design.
Adrian rolled his eyes "Don't give me that.. And have you finished work on Gargan's weird tail thing?"
The tinkerer blinked "Oh yeah, just letting the point cool down before I install it in the Exoskeleton... Seriously, what a weird thing to ask for, right?"
"Apparently He was inspired by some freakish thing from Japan, thought it "Looked cool"." Adrian said mockingly
"Oh yeah... Where in Japan though? I could have swore I heard about it before..."
"Sainan, Japan."
"Right... Lots of weird things are happening there lately, Eh boss?"
Adrian couldn't help but agree "Too many if you ask me, the fact We have representatives arriving soon gives me indigestion, but I doubt it would have anything to do with the business."
"Yeah... Imagine though, if one of those kids were that vigilante from there."
The vigilante, yeah He know what this guy was, How could He not when His daughter talked to her pen pal so often that the topic of Superheroes always comes up, none more so than this 'Spider-Man' freak. He had no reservations on the 8-legged freak, He was there and had no idea He existed like those idiots upstate. and He highly doubt a teenager would ever don a stupid outfit like that.
The boss scoffed "As if some kid is going to mess with us."
a ringing on the table in front of him took his attention away from the conversation, He could see a 'Unknown caller' flash on the screen but it had a familliar number on it, one of the numbers under his employ even, used so to keep their business a secret in the small chance of them is taken into custody and made to track calls.
He took one look at the number and realized this number
"This better not be what I think it is or I'll be pissed."
*twhip* "This better be what I think it is or I'm gonna be pissed."
Swinging through the air, Spider-Man traveled far out to find the bridge where the explosion happened. Using his internal knowledge of the layout of New York, it seemed that the blast happened nearby the famed Brooklyn bridge.
"If it is only fireworks, I'm throwing them into the bay.."
Spider-Man traveled until He came to the entryway of the bridge... to see another explosion on the other side. A smaller but just as powerful blast that He could feel in his bones.
"Okay... Now that is something else entirely." He looked up and fired a web to the bottom of the bridge and begun to swing as far as He could to get the other side, slowing down when He saw in the distance, exactly what He was looking.
His powered down vision could make out a label-less white van and another smaller car. But what really caught his eye were the individuals who were standing there. He stopped his swinging and carefully crawled to them to not arouse suspicion.
As He got closer, He could here talking. The people there seemed to be conversing on the items for sale. One was a Caucasian in a yellow winter jacket and the other standing in front of him was a black man in a blue and red shirt with jeans. He probably is the buyer since He was the furthest away from the van as the white guy was close to the back with another African american man with his back against the van.
"Whoa, This might be my big break... I might be able to stop them here if I play my cards right..." He said quietly, before pulling out his phone "I might want to get some evidence, just in case..." He said before recording a video
He watches the man in the yellow jacket walks into the back of the van, as if to find something.
"Huh, guess They make home visits as well as sale abr-Is that a arm?..."
The man in yellow walks back from the van to the buyer while holding a strange looking gun, the reason it was strange was the fact the barrel of the gun was a robot arm. The man in yellow smirks "Now this my friend is a reclaimed Sub-Ultron arm reclaimed from Sokovia."
U-Ultron?! That robot that tried to make a homemade meteor with the intent to destroy all life on the planet?! The threat that took an avenger dying to stop...
The man in yellow aims the Ultron arm at a helpless trashcan that seemed to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. He took a quick second to line the shot before pulling his trigger, firing out a beam of blue energy, hitting the trash can. That trash can was no longer part of this plane, that thing was gone leaving only a small pile of ash and debris on the ground.
Spider-Man nearly drops his phone in shock before the realization of having to spend money to buy a new phone making him save it at the last second "Jesus, These guys are legit, if They're not exclusively stationed in the US... could They even get stuff from Japan?..."
The image of some random no-name crook piloting the Rhino Armour appeared in his head as the monstrosity stomps on him with the Sub-Ultron arm ducktaped on it flashed in his head.
"Best try and stop these guys now before thinking of the worse case scenario..."
The man in yellow tosses the arm at the buyer "Here, you give it a try, I see some pigeons over there that could go for a rough awakening."
The buyer, understandingly so, looked apprehensive at holding a doomsday device in his hand and looked at the man like 'Man, what?' "I just wanted something low-key.." He looked the gun over with uneasiness "Why you trying to upsell me man..."
Huh... The guy didn't like it either?.. Better now get my hopes up, He admitted that He called them to get him a weapon..
The man in yellow holds his hands up before taking the gun from his hands "Okay, Okay, I have just what you need." He said walking into the van "I have a ton of other great stuff in here.
He has MORE?!
The man in yellow scrambles around and says "I have black hole grenades.."
Oh...
"Chitauri Railguns..."
A small whine exited Spider-Man's throat.
"Plasma Rifles..."
I... I...
"Atom scramblers..."
I might have bitten more than I can chew...
"Shock gauntlets..."
*Gulp* "A-At least I can confirm these guys are who I'm looking for..."
The other seller of the weapons looked annoyed as He walked up to the buyer "Look, Times are changing and We are the only ones selling these Hi-Tech weapons."
The only ones? Is He low-Balling it or can He take down These guys and won't have to worry about these weapons except the ones that were already out there?... I.. Think I can work with this.
The buyer looked even more reluctant "Look, all I want to do is stake this one guy out.."
The man in yellow said joyously "Oh, I got these Anti-Grav climbers then!"
"Climbers?" The buyer said interested
Okay time for me to-
[I AM!]
Yuuki Rito's eyes from under his Spider-Man mask became dinner plates, this was his 'You are late, get back or Mikan is going to have a cow' alarm He had set to his phone. He came to roughly tap the screen of said device "Off! Off! I thought I turned you off!"
[I AM! IRON MAN!] *
He could not silence the phone in time as the weapon sellers and the buyer all heard the ringtone, the african-american seller pulls a gun on the buyer. "Did you set us up?"
"Shit!" Spider-Man swore, realizing this could get really bad, really fast.
"W-W-Whoa! Hold up, I-"
"Whoops! Sorry guys!" Spider-Man drops from his hiding place and lands in front of the crooks, who all stare dumbfounded "Y'know, I thought I had this on silent, oh what a world!"
The man in yellow gasped "What the hell are you?.."
"Oh! Just a lovely tourist, got lost on my way to-NEWARK!" At the cry of the New Jersey town, Spider-Man fires a web at Seller #2's pistol and rips said weapon and throws it aside. While this, He drops his phone on the soft grass, This might get messy.
Seller#2, upon being disarmed, quickly runs inside the van passing Yellow-guy, Spider-Man sent a quick glance to the seller who was quickly getting into his car. He sighed, running to the van but not before flicking his wrist in the direction of the car, shooting one of his Spider-Tracers and attaching itself onto the car 'Not who I'm after, but then again, He is a criminal...'
While doing this, his spider-Sense flared making him look back at Yellow-Guy, who was pulling out something from the van.
"Hey buddy, I like to have a word with-... AH!?" In a instant, Yellow-Guy swings around and slams into Spidey's gut with the shock gauntlet and sent him flying far. Far enough to fall into the East River where They were all doing business from.
*Splash!*
...
"Ahh!" The head of the web-headed hero sprung out of the liquid, inhaling a deep breath "Jesus this is cold!" He shivered before webbing on to the guard rails on land. 'Then again, this is December...'
He lands on the rail to see the van start to drive away, He quickly fires a web line at the retreating vehicle "You're not getting away from-!"
*Slip!*
"Eh?" He faceplants onto the ground as the van begins to drag him onto the street. 'Gah! I must've been so wet I couldn't stick to the railing... and now my chest is getting road rash!'
The van makes it way through the streets of Brooklyn, occasionally making sharp turns to try and shake him, but couldn't do so easily. But honestly, it was doing a good job at trying.
"Ti-Ti-ti! Hot hot hot!" Spider-Man said as He was dragged along the concrete like some sort of ragdoll, occasionally swinging right into trash cans and knocking them over, He had to get control. He fires a web line at one of the swinging back doors of the van to try and stablyze hims-
*Pew!*
'Did He just blast that door off?!' He lost his grip on that web to narrowly avoid the door that came off 'The guy in yellow is firing shots at me with one of those weird guns!'
He fires another web line at the van to try and stablyze himself and stop these guys...
Before unfortunately, He soon realized that He placed too weight on a single point which was grinding on the streets of Brooklyn at a speeds upwards of 50 Miles per Hour...
"AH! MY-"
"-BUTT!"
(Horizon High, Lower Manhattan. New York City)
Back at Horizon High, Momioka Risa continues her bout to sexually harass everyone of her classmates. Her current victim? The princess of Deviluke herself, Lala Satalin Deviluke.
"I said it before and I say it again, I can't believe your butt is so firm!" The perverted blonde says, without a hint of shame, while feeling up the pink-haired girl who took it in stride.
"Oh wow, really?"
"Yeah girl! What sort of diet are you on to get such a nice body?" Risa said, half playing around and half wanting to know the answer... for a friend, she swears.
"Diet?... What's that?" The girl said nonchalantly, wondering if was some sort of food.
"Ah.." Peke in their badge form announced out of nowhere "Lala-Sama's physiology is that of a Charmian, as her mother before allowing her perfect hair, perfect figure and perfect voice, 100% bombastic."
All three human girls surrounding the princess stared her right in to the face for a few moments before not so subtlety checking her figure out. A single thought rang in their heads 'Damn Alien Genes...'
"Momioka!"
"Huh?" The blonde as well as her companions turn to see the voice that called out to her. Stomping her way towards the group of girls was the disciplinary committee chairmen, Yui Kotegawa and, being dragged against her will was Run. She stood in a swimsuit like most as were presented with by Horizon High. The only ones who weren't in the suits were Mikado-Sensei and Lala. Which made them a bit curious, did Mikado had a swimsuit on her at all times? Lala just had Peke with her, how did their guardian get a bathing suit like that in winter times?
The disciplinary leader glaring at Momioka "I shall not allow such shamelessness to happen on this trip, we are honored guests of this establishment!"
"Big talk about shamelessness when You got those jugs bouncing about, ready to pop out and- Mind if I squeeze?" Risa switched mindsets after staring at Yui's breasts for a few seconds, the closest She seen to someone sharing Lala's breast size without the need for surgery... Maybe? She doesn't know Yui's life, maybe She should give them a squeeze just to make sure They're real... Hehe...
"E-Eh?! No! Why would you even ask that! This is not Sainan!"
"So if it WAS Sainan, I could go whole-hog on your hooters?"
"GAH!" A completely frustrated Yui screamed "Never mind that, I came to demand you release Deviluke-San's... rear end, many of the boy's from our class and Horizon high have done nothing but stare at your shamelessness for 10 minutes!"
Lala herself turn to see many boy's sat at the edge of the pool and in truth, staring at them. She didn't mind however, She was used to being watched naked all the time at home by handmaidens so this wasn't much different, and hey! She had a swimsuit on, much more appropriate, right?... Wait, that sounded like a line Rito would of used?
"Ohh~ Well at least They're being honest on their feelings, maybe we can give them a show?"
"Why you-?!"
"Where's Rito-San?" Run said, in a similar swimsuit as her classmates with a pair of swim goggles on her face.
Risa 'Tch'ed "Him? He was the one I was talking about, a chance to check us out, and He decides to go to the library instead."
The memorizian cried "Seriously?!"
Yui however nodded in approval "Ah, as expected of Yuuki-San."
Lala tilted her head "You know Rito, Yui?"
"Don't say my first name like that!" The girl said flustered "And yes... Yuuki Rito is our star player in exams, very well behaved and does not seek trouble unless some... outside forces... Drive his hand.." Why was Yui giving Lala that look? "He is a student most should aspire to be."
"AKA, Boring~!" Risa mocked
"Why you!" Yui sighed "Yuuki-San is more than able to look after himself, so I trust him to behave properly by himself."
Lala smiled, happy that someone liked Rito like She did. She didn't like how Rito had to ditch, even if She understood his reasoning, so She hopes Rito finishes his plans so He can have fun before this trip's over.
"Speak for yourself, I only entered here to see Yuuki-San, so I'm leaving to go to the library.."
Lala's eyes widened 'Oh no! If She does, They'll know Rito isn't actually there! Evasive maneuver! '
"hmm... I suppose if you want-"
"Run! Let's play cannonball again!"
"WHAT?! I don't want-?!" Before the green haired princess could refuse any further, Lala grabbed her arm and flung her into the the drink with a loud splash! A few seconds pass before Run's head pops out as She draws breath. She soon glares at Lala with a deep rage "Why You!? Why would you do that!"
Lala smiled "Like I said! Cannonball!" She yells, running to the pool and hopping in with a splash as well, As She moved within the water, She congratulated herself 'Yay! I have to keep everyone playing until Rito gets back... I wonder what is He doing right now?"
*Smash!*
(Brooklyn heights, Brooklyn)
"Ow..."
The chase had came to a bitter end as the driver of the van made a sharp turn too far, sending the web themed hero over several trash bins... and the back wind-shield of a parked car. So lay the Spider-Man under a pile of broken glass as He sees, through the front windshield, the weapon dealers making their escape...
"YOU ARE NO HERO!"
"Kh..." The spider rises from the broken glass "I'll show you... a hero..."
Groggily getting to his feet, Spider-Man shakes his head to clear off any lingering glass fragment
"Ugh... That trigger... It means I lost another power..." He slowly begins to follow the direction of the van "I need to know which one..."
Crouching low for a split second, He leaps a tremendous height concluding his legs power didn't take a hit. He fires a web and swings amongst the tall brooklyn building in the direction last seen being used by the van. His swing came to an end as He traveled straight into a wall, placing his feet first, He plats his boots on the brick and begins to climb with no issue
"So it isn't wall-crawling this time... so what is it?" He asked aloud as He flipped onto the rooftop. His eyes catch sight of a retreating back end of the van, which wasn't hard seeing as it was missing a door.
Not missing a beat, Spider-Man quickly begins hopping rooftops in pursuit of the white van, adding a little finesse as He parkours over airvents and chimney shafts
"I'm still not seeing what power is gone... maybe it's my combat strength? What ever, as soon as I catch these guys, I'll be just fine!" The Spider-Man said, making his way closer to his destination.
"Thought You'd get away from me, huh?!" He said as He only barely lagging behind the van before Leaping off the building and preparing to divebomb the van "SURPRISE!"
*Shunk*
"Eh?"
Suddenly. The Spider-Man's body lurched up and was taken back into the air. Soon, the van, the lampposts and even the buildings began to shrink as He was taken higher and higher. Try as He might to release himself, his leg was caught inside the snare of a deadly mechanical grip.
"What the hell?!" Spider-Man looked up to see what had caught him only to find a man... with metal wings! "What?!
Suddenly, at a high enough altitude... The man with the wings lets go.
"AAAAAHHHHH!" The hero said afraid as gravity had once again taken effect. He quickly at speeds of several miles per hour, straight to the concrete below. He couldn't fire a web at these speeds, he wouldn't be calculate a proper swing, He would very possibly miss and also very possibly go SPLAT.
"Come on, think! Think or you're gonna be bug splatter on the concrete!" He held the spinnerets of his web shooters close together "Maybe... I need to time this right or it's bye-bye Spidey!"
He pressed the triggers of his shooters at the same time and connects both web lines, He did not stop and allowed the web to get longer and longer "If the wind pressure is strong enough, then it should turn this tubular webbing..."
As described before, the wind pressure flattened the thick webbing and created a dome-like object, making what was once random webbing...
"Into a makeshift web-Parachute!"
The web parachute did as it was supposed to do and slowed his fall tremendously. Not too much mind you, but enough to where He won't have to worry about death via becoming a pancake "Phew! Almost bought the farm back there..." This left him a bit to reflect on what had just happened
"That... guy with the wings, He must be in cahoots with the guys with the weapons... At least I know one thing, I know that these guys weapons aren't limited only to fancy guns, so I need to be prepared... Still though, it's kinda weird, Spider-Sense didn't even budge with him! Even if an opponent is fast like Yami or Zastin, Spider-Sense would at the very least give me a split second heads up... wait... The power that disappeared, was it Spider-Sense?! My ace in the-gulp gulp gulp."
...
...
...
He had just drifted into the river while distracted, right?
Pulling himself out of the river, Spidey pulls himself out of the drink and got on to dry land... and on top of a ice cream shop by the bay, Ample Hills Creamery was it?
On the rooftop of the building, He removes his mask and tries squeezing out some of the excess water from it. "Sort of glad I removed the electric bits... might have to waterproof my gear, y'know... if I get this powers thing under control." He quipped before taking a bite out from a Iron Man themed ice cream treat that was sold there, He preferred Stark-Raving-Hazelnut but this cherry stuff ain't bad.
"Still though, I might be over my head. And Zastin did say I couldn't pull any of my previous contacts for this job..." He sighed, feeling dejected "Out of my zone, everyone's mad at me, can't get help and I can't even tease Yuri with Spider-Cop?.."
I.. need a hand, the police? No, if it's anything like Sainan, There's a strict 'No Vigilantes' code up... Any local crime fighters? Pfft! Enhanced guys in New York who haven't already been scouted by the avengers? I-
"Wait... The Avengers?" Another quick squeeze of his mask and He quickly puts it on. The lenses inside go and assist him as He searches the distance Island of Manhattan until He found the building He was looking for, a tall building that suck out from all the others. Why?
Maybe because of the bright neon 'A' on it?
"Of course! The Avengers! I should've caught them up to speed in the first place!" Spidey quickly finished his ice cream and made to swing back to the Brooklyn Bridge to collect his phone and get back to the Island of Manhattan. "Here I am, in superhero central, going to take a criminal weapons organization down all by myself!" He taps himself on the head, mocking himself for a foolish thought
He began swinging back to the bridge "I mean, giving them this information will definitely earn me some brownie points with the team, plus falcon would definitely be able to beat flying-vulture-guy!.. maybe? I think?"
Honestly, it doesn't matter just who They send his way, a hand would be more than enough. And maybe this could be his gateway to a career He really wants!
(Undisclosed Location)
Idiots... The whole lot of them, Idiots!
Descending from the air through a skylight in the roof of a unknown building, Adrian Toomes landed inside. His thoughts a violent cesspool of profanity and insults.
"They were seen..." He said, hastily removing his helmet before throwing it to the ground."They were seen!"
"Boss?"
Adrian turns his glare towards the voice that called for his attention, who epped and shivered in his place. Real spineless that Mason..
"Um... Your wife has been calling you... Messaging about a brake light."
Adrian huffed, too tired for this bullshit already "What did I tell you about looking at my phone?"
Mason epped again "S-Sorry... You just left it on the counter, and you know I'm a curious person by Nature." He backed away, as if hoping something would take Adrian's attention off of him.
And He thanked his lucky stars when a damaged van pulled in, a happy Jackson Brice hanging out of the back that was currently smoking. The men hopped off with a laugh "Haha!"He was all smiles as He regarded Adrian who was quite the opposite emotions at this time "I mean, that was badass!"
Adrian rand his gloved hands through his already balding hair in order to contain his frustration. He let out a breath "How many times have I told you not to fire them out in the open.." He breathed
Brice took offense to the tone "You said move the merchandise-"
"Under the radar. Under the radar!" Adrian snapped back "That's how we survive. Because of you, we risked a potential leak to those freaks and bastards uptop that we exist!"
Brice did not regard the words with any care but his partners in the van noted how pissed Adrian was and at least looked ashamed.
"Look at you! Out there wearing that goofy thing and lighting up cars! Even gave yourself a name! The shocker! 'I'm the shocker! I shock people!'.. What is this, pro-wrestling?" Adrian mocked
Brice huffed and and walked away like a moody teenager "Whatever, Old man."
This cause his partners to take a step back from the time known as Adrian getting ready to explode. The man himself tried to keep it under wraps as He walked to Brice. "Look." He said, unevenly "I know you don't give a shit about anything but I do. I built this whole place because I got people I have to look after-"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah..." Jackson Brice muttered, showing how much He did not care for Adrian's words.
This was the last straw for Adrian who finally had enough and snapped back "You know what? I can't afford your bullshit.. Get out of here."
Brice was alarmed "What?!"
"You're done. You're off the crew, get out."
Brice glared at Adrian before adopting a smug attitude that surprised everyone around him "Yeah, All right.. But I wonder one thing, old man."
Adrian glared but did not answer
"I wonder if you could afford me out there... with ALL I KNOW?" He smirked
Adrian blinked, Mason blinked, his partners blinked, the various members scattered around blinked. He wasn't thinking...
"One peep from me and I get a reduced sentence, you? Maybe 70 to 100? wonder how your precious family would react to knowing their house is paid with blood money?"
He was actually threatening to revealing their entire operation should He be fired...
That was the last straw.
Adrian released a breath and smiled "Okay."
Brice quirked a brow "Okay?"
Adrian nodded "Okay... You're right. You're ABSOLUTELY right..." He regarded Mason and mouthed 'That work?' He gestured to a gun Mason was working on
The inventor shrugged and mouthed 'I don't know.."
'Ugh, I have to take it..' He returned his gaze to Brice who looked none to impressed. That changed as Adrian lifted the gun up "I can't afford that." He said calmly
Brice realizing He went too far, tried to plead "W-Wait?!"
Adrian did not heed his words as He pulled the trigger and fired a beam of blue energy, instantly turning Brice into dust. The only think remaining was the shocker gauntlet. The workers look in horror at the dust that was once a man.
One of Brice's partners, Schultz, perfectly voiced everyone's thoughts "Damn.."
Adrian blinked before turning to Mason, puzzled "I thought this was the Anti-Grav gun?"
Mason blinked "What? No, it's that one!" He pointed to a similar looking gun on the desk
Adrian Toomes took a second to process what happened before shrugging it off "I did say I was gonna kill him of of these days..." He walked over to his ashes and bent over, picking up the gauntlet " I didn't think it would be quite literally but I'm not complaining." He dusted off the gauntlet, blew on it to remove a stubborn patch of ash before tossing it at one of Brice's partner's "Here... You're the Shocker now."
Phil Watson gulped "Yes sir..."
(New York, Avengers Tower)
"Oh no you don't!" A irritated voice hollered. It belong to a hefty man in a business suit. He was known as Harold Joseph Hogan, but many of the people He met on a day-to-day basis refer to him as 'Happy', a stupid ironic nickname that sadly stuck around. Damn it, Tony.
He has busy talking down to a awkward looking hand connected to a pole on a strange device, the aptly named Dum-E or how Happy would put it, a great big pain in his ass. The machine had in it's mechanized grip a vase Tony had left up their for random Feng Shui or maybe even just for a quick laugh that a pot was left next to super computers, Honestly it was hard to tell with his friend sometimes.
"Put that down, it's worth more than you or me.." He scolded the most-likely unfeeling droid, who did as He was told and let out a sound that sounded like a moan. The man rolled his eyes and went to check his clipboard "Come on, don't give me that! We got a week before this is done before We can take the lower levels... and having enough stuff to entertain kids.." What was Tony thinking allowing a field trip to an incredibly dangerous facility like this one?
Happy passed by several workers dismantling several large computers power supplies which were taking priority over some of the other stuff Tony had left around. Apparently Thor left some strange magic belt lying around that increased strength, which He didn't try one only to see it didn't make it around his waist, and a new shield for Cap, some sort of prototype phasing shield from summon itself from a gauntlet.*
The disgruntled old man rubbed his aching temples "Ugh... I don't think I can handle anymore 'Super Heroes'..."
*Knock! Knock! Knock!*
Happy quickly turned his head to the windows leading to the huge overview of the entire city... to see a red blue clad figure sticking to the window. The figure stared directly at Happy and waved happily "Oh hello! Nice to make your acquaintance, I am Spider-Man!... Can I come inside? It's really high up here..Please?"
Happy grumbled, very much annoyed already. He then pointed towards the docking bay for the quinjets and soon this 'Spider-Man' climbed there fast. Yes, CLIMBED. "I'm getting too old for this..."
Happy walked to the bay as The Spider-Man was marveling at the sight of the city at nighttime "Hoowee, Mr Stark certainly knows where the best sight in all the city is, Just priceless..."
The voice sounded young, maybe a young adult or a teen at least? Oh god, Teenage Avengers... He just felt more hair fall out. Shacking those thoughts, Happy called out "Okay kid, what do you want? and make it snappy or else I'll call the cops.. and if that doesn't work, the avengers." He threatened, hoping it won't happen, as They would have to repair anything damaged for the new owners.
The Spider-Man responded "O-Oh yes! Um... Wait, you're Happy Hogan! Mr Stark's head of security!"
Smart little kid, huh? "Quite, now you explain YOURself."
The teen became flustered and fidgety, as if meeting some guy important like a celebrity or something "O-Of course Mr Hogan, um.." The boy kicked his feet "I am Spider-Man and I am requesting the Avenger's help." He said, giving a polite, if hasty, bow.
Happy raised an eyebrow "Really?"
"Yes." Spider-Man calmed "I came to this city tracking down some weapons that seemed to causing loads of trouble."
"Isn't this something you should bring up with the police?" Weapon dealings in New York isn't anything new sadly..
"I can't, These weapons are too dangerous! They managed to burn down a school in Japan!" The kid announced before producing a phone "I even have some evidence that could help us take them down." He held the phone out to the man
Happy didn't take it however, unsure of why it was his problem "Like I said, this is more of a police matter and I'm a little busy moving all this stuff out."
"But I-" The teen stopped dead in his tracks at stared at Happy for a good 10 seconds without saying a thing "M-Moving?.."
Happy quirked an eyebrow "Yeah... It's not in the know yet but Tony just sold Avengers Tower."
The Spider kid dropped his phone and landed with a thud loud enough to imply He just cracked it "WHAT?!"
Happy rolled his eyes "Some guy called Tenjouin just bought it out and Tony decided to just have everything Upstate."
"But I- But I..." The boy shivered, body language going all over the place uncomfortably "Where will the avengers be then?.."
"Upstate as well..." Happy started to pity the boy who just had the rug pulled out from under him.
The boy slumped down in defeat before looking right back up "W-What about Mr Stark! Maybe I can get into contac-"
Happy nipped that thought in the butt "Tony is in his second retirement as Iron Man and He intends to keep it.." For as long as He can, it's almost like it's impossible for Tony to just NOT be a superhero sometimes. Maybe a kid could help him out, superheroes don't have kids... wait...
Happy stares at the teen who looks at him in wait, The blank glass-frame eyes looking back at him, just waiting but... it wasn't impolite, like He is trying to be calm and take in all the information being sent his way... Maybe... Just maybe...
"But maybe I can send something his way."
"C-Can you?!" The teen squeaks
"Sure... I think all the avengers are away in Europe right now but if you give it a few days, I think they'll be right back to you."
"As soon as possible would be most kindly! I mean I have only this week to stop these guys and-" The teen stopped "Never mind that now."
'A week? Maybe He was a... Nah, that can't be.. right?' Happy held out his hand to the costumed teen "I'll send it to my Email and then I'll forward it to Tony for ya, kid."
"S-Seriously!" The boy picked up his phone placed it in the hands of the man older than him who quickly entered his Email while the boy breathed a sigh of relief "Please do, I'll try and keep an eye on these and I'll be sure to keep you and Mr Stark posted!" He exclaimed, getting back his phone
Really laying it thick with the 'Mr Stark' there, huh? was what Happy thought as the Teen leaped from the roof and... began to swing on threads? "Did I really just make some deal with some 'Avengers' fanboy?..." He said, wondering how this little interaction will pan out, hopefully not stressing even more out and complaints from Tony (again) on how He's fine or how He doesn't need a 'hand'
Maybe... Just maybe... Having a hand might be good for Tony. For his own sake.
*Crash!*
"Buu..."
Did that Robot- "Damn it, Dum-E!" Happy ran back inside to check the broken, and most likely expensive, item.
"Okay!... That could have gone better, but can't really complain."
Spider-Man swung throughout the city of Manhattan which felt... Nice, actually. Pretty homely to be honest.. Anyway, He was quickly making his way back to Horizon High before anyone can find out He was gone
"I got the Avengers attention.. Sort of, and now I'll have to do is track these guys and keep an eye on the guys with the weapons, beat flying vulture guy, some other third step and boom! Profit!" He released his web while saying this and taps his fist into his open palm. After a few seconds, He ejects from said pose before returning to swing.
"Web swinging always manages to take the stress off of things, 200 dollars for a shrink? I think not!"
Still, He needs to be smart about how He goes with the short time He's given. If He was to keep an eye on the bad guys... He would have to ditch both Haruna and Lala. One would cause him heartache and the other would give him a heart attack should anything go wrong. "I can only use the bathroom excuse for so long until they think I'm up to something or I have some sort of bladder problem."
"I have to find ways to establish certain sick leaves, tomorrow is our first free day... I might be able to lose them in some shops without too much of a problem, i hope... Then the day after will be the field trip to... what was it again? The 9/11 museum, I think... I can say I ate something gross the day before and pretend to be sick or maybe say the topic makes me feel uncomfortable.."
"Then there's that trip to freaking Broadway. Being on a paid Field trip has it's perks. Might have to miss seeing Hamilton live though if I find those perpetrators. the day inbetween then and that fancy dinner party... can't skip that one I suppose."
I'm on the clock and I need to make the most of the time I have, and I NEED to get these guys as soon as possible, by any means- "Oh there's My stop." The hero called, seeing the familiar silhouette of Horizon High. He swings and lands next to the window of the pool area. He peeps in to see that all the students still frolicking in the pool. Apparently Run and Kotegawa are in some race with Lala and are circling around to try and get her.. Or just throttle her neck.
"Oh well, if She's happy... better get changed quick before somebody leaves and finds out I'm missing."
Quickly, The Spider-Teen scurries down the wall to reach the windows of the men's restrooms. Slowly He opens the window and moves right in, He crawls along the ceiling and hovers over the stall that contains his clothes. Removing his masks, He lets out a small breath
"Y'know... I hope I'm able to finish this quest without my spider-sense, with it being my ace in the hole, I don't what may hap-
*Clack*
Slowly cracking his neck to the right, He peaks into a stall that held a large blurry figure. Slowly lifting his mask up so a lens could cover one of his eyes, He see who that person was.
Ned Leeds. His friend.
"Oh What the F-!"
*Detach*
*Slam!*
As The hero lay on the ground after losing his grip on the ceiling, falling and hitting his head on the rim of a toilet, The unmasked hero known as Yuuki Rito mumbles "What else could go wrong..."
In the heart of the bustling city, one man watches out his window to view it all. The people He informs. The people who trust him. and respected him. His mustache agreed.
"Jonah!"
The man turns to see a man of African descent walk into his room. One of the few people in his office who didn't give him a headache most of the time "Robbie?"
Robbie placed a folder on his desk and He sneers as He a picture of a masked man connected with a paper clip on the folder
"The hell is that?"
Robbie elaborated "We got some reports of a chase in Brooklyn with some property damage, Eyewitness reports claim this man was seen running around."
Jonah took the picture from the folder and sneered "And who pray tell is this walking fashion disaster?"
"Sources claim He's a hero from Japan called 'Spider-Man', the one our Japan branch always badmouths."
Jonah scowl deepened "And now's this delinquent is in MY city? Just what I need for my blood pressure, another vigilante.."
"Your blood pressure was bad to begin with, and I don't think He's really a bad guy-"
"Bah! He wears a mask, what good person wears a mask! What does He have to hide? Any claim of responsibility? Punk should show his face, THEN I might change my mind." Jonah sits down and places a cigar in his mouth and lets it hang as He looks for a lighter "Doubt it though."
Robbie sighed "Jonah, I know you hate masks-"
"Eh!" Jonah imitates a buzzer "I don't want to hear it, you can't change my mind. These fools in masks are not real heroes like police officers, firemen, (Newspaper publishers) or... Astronauts." Jonah finished, deciding He didn't want the cigar anymore and placed it on the table
Robbie sighed, Knowing this was a losing battle "Fine Jonah, What do you want to do?"
Jonah's vigor returned "What do you think? Front page of the early morning release 'Big Apple fears Spider Bite! Spider-Man, Hero or menace?' get some of that synergy with the Japan branch and all... and get a picture of the bug here, We need proof of the menace being here and reaching havoc."
Robbie rolled his eyes "I'll get Eddie on it, He'll do his best to get you your pictures."
"Yes..." Jonah turns away and back out the window as if searching the area to catch the illusive creep and maybe get the picture himself and save a few bucks "MY pictures of Spider-Man!"
After Ten thousand years, I have awakened from my slumber and finally finished this damn chapter. Wow, procrastination hit me HARD! plus Me having two jobs didn't help either...
This chapter is... EVERYWHERE. with a lot of exposition and a few contrivances. and I know that will be a criticism... But this is how I plotted the story, and how I'll make it go. It gets a bit less contrived from here boys and girls.
Recap, Rito has established a (sort of) link to the avengers, half way there! Also Try to keep you identity secret, boy!
Toomes is arming himself for a battle! How will that pan out?
Happy Hogan hopes Spidey could help ease Tony's mind. Give you a few guesses how that'll pan out.
Lala's having fun on her trip! But for how long will the smiles last?
JK Simmons- I mean, J Jonah Jameson has arrived! And He wants his pictures of Spider-Man!
I will be doing something a little different with Jonah as opposed to other Spidey Fanfictions.
*= Rito's ringtone is the 2nd 90's Iron Man animated TV Theme, the badass one.
Please Review and tell what to improve on, I'm starting with Liam's critism already. Not all of it, because that would be a massive rewrite but enough.
