Chapter 3 – Mystery Hacker
Just 24 hours after the second break in, Ross staff receive a call that the trap have failed and Ross receive the call too late plus the breakout happens closer to midnight meaning no one will report any breakout until roughly 10 am.
"Mr. Secretary, I just receive a call from the warden in new Raft Prison and the trap failed plus Captain America has free his team and took the submarine with them along with their equipment" Ross's Staff Officer informed. "Why am I hearing this now?" Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross asked. "It happens roughly closer to midnight, sir" says Ross's Staff Officer. "Alright, alert the local PD and I need to call Stark" says Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross.
Therefore, the local PD was immediately informed and the media haven't been informed yet but Ross to keep the media off side for now.
Meanwhile, Peter Parker to make a visit to Avengers complex in upstate New York and Peter need to report in about last night's robbers using alien tech that was collect from the Avengers battle.
"Ah Peter, it's good to see you this weekend" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "Thank you, I need to tell you about the robbers last night and they're using an alien tech from Avengers battle" says Peter Parker/Spiderman as he sits down.
"Sir, Secretary Ross is on line" says F.R.I.D.A.Y as he answers the phone. "Tony, we have situation— "Yeah, please hold" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "Tony, no— "Oh boy, that never gets old" Tony Stark/Iron Man muttered.
"It must be something important, now I understand why you and Ross didn't get along well after what happen in Leipzig" says Peter Parker/Spiderman. "Yeah, you're right" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "Does anyone was hurt in the Raft breakout?" Peter Parker/Spiderman asked. "Friday told me that there was a breakout called the Raft before I walked in" says Peter Parker/Spiderman.
"Oh that, I don't know. Should probably check and hold that thought" Stark muttered as he hits the button next to the blinking hold light, "Yes Dear" says Tony Stark/Iron Man.
"Tony, please don't put me on hold again" says Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross. "So, what do you need this time?" Tony Stark/Iron Man asked. "There was a second breakout, the trap failed and Captain America manage to found his teammates also bypassing the security system" says Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross.
"That is vexing, it seems Captain America has entered the digital age and somebody must warn the terrorist" says Tony Stark/Iron Man as he and Spiderman chuckled. "Tony, this is serious and these people are dangerous" says Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross.
"Oh definitely, any casualties or injuries or fatalities?" Tony Stark/Iron Man asked. "One sprained ankle and several dislocated shoulders" says Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross. "Yes well, that sounds very perilous and we'll get right on that" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "You mean you do know where they are" says Thaddeus Thunderbolt Ross.
"Obviously not, I thought that were all hidden away in your super-secret bath tub and have a nice day" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "No, wait—
The line was disconnected and Mr. Stark continue his conversation with Peter.
"No casualties, not bad for someone over ninety don't you think?" Tony Stark/Iron Man asked. "Not bad at all, even good" says Peter Parker/Spiderman. "Boss, Secretary Ross is calling again" F.R.I.D.A.Y Interrupted. "Put him through Pepper" says Tony Stark/Iron Man as he points the flip phone at Peter. "You were saying kid?" Tony Stark/Iron Man asked.
"Uh…I think somebody is collecting alien tech left over in the Avengers Battle and the robbers that I face yesterday blasted a hole through the bank and to the convenience store" says Peter Parker/Spiderman. "Did you get a hold of what they used?" Tony Stark/Iron Man asked.
"No, I didn't see it but just the blast and the store catching on fire" says Peter Parker/Spiderman. "What did they hit?" Tony Stark/Iron Man asked. "Car oil from the auto care station, whatever they used was hot enough to ignite. It went pretty quickly but nobody died and I know that, I believe the car belonged to one of the people inside" Peter Parker/Spiderman explained.
"I see, people got out I assume" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "Yes, I've got them all out" says Peter Parker/Spiderman. "Good, I get Friday to dig it up" says Tony Stark/Iron Man.
After that, Peter Parker return back to his ground in Queens and resume his duty but he did manage to track the location of Captain America and his team.
Meanwhile at the safe house in Brooklyn, Captain America and his team is now staying for the time being but Captain America still hasn't figure out the identity of his mystery hacker or his motive on helping him.
The safe house was Barton's place and it is completely off SHIELD's records so that no one would know, the formers Avengers all woke up including Captain America and when they got to the kitchen to approach with a familiar face which is the Black Widow.
"Wow, this is cliché and I was hoping you guys could be here" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "It is Barton's safe house, we're staying here for the time being" says Sam Wilson/Falcon. "What do you want?" Steve Rogers/Captain America asked. "Well, I need to tell you about the Breakout in the Raft Prison and brought some breakfast" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow.
Therefore, the former Avengers along with Black Widow have breakfast and Black Widow is explaining to them what really happen.
"So, what brings you all the way here?" Clint Barton/Hawkeye asked. "Well, I'm here to let all of you know that Ross didn't get any footage of your escape. All he has to go with is just witness account and a few minor injuries, someone was tampering with the data in the camera system and I assume it wasn't you Steve" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow.
"No, I didn't mess with the monitor room beyond finding the cells" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "Well, whoever your mystery hacker was managed to get past Stark's Firewall and AI without raising any red flags" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow explained. "Have you been making friends behind my back?" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow asked.
"It was just for one time Nat, but I didn't get his name or motive" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "But you know who it was?" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow asked. "I have a theory, yes" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "Wait, why didn't you say anything?" Wanda Maximoff/Scarlett Witch asked.
"It's not my secret to tell, I didn't know he'd be able to wipe the footage either but if I told you then they would have it on record and Ross would've had Tony to bring him in" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "Okay, but you could've told us afterwards" says Scott Lang/Ant-Man.
"It doesn't matter anyway, your mystery hacker covered his tracks and there is no record of a breakout or alarms outside of the call to Secretary Ross from the guards. Ross's people don't have anything to trace, they're still trying to find out what set off the lights and fire alarm system off" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow explained.
"I take it you have better luck than I did" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "I have inklings, theories that I like to chase down— "But nothing concrete" Sam Wilson/Falcon finished. "No, I haven't start looking yet" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "I need to find out myself" says Steve Rogers/Captain America.
"Well, you're welcome to join me and I have to make sure Barton doesn't buy 7 bath tub of peanut butters" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "Oh geez, thanks mom and I didn't know you care" says Clint Barton/Hawkeye.
"You guys can stay here for the moment, I brought some clothes just in case" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "Thanks, partner" says Clint Barton/Hawkeye.
Captain America wear casual clothes to follow Black Widows into Queens, Black Widow manage to trace the hacker's identity but it's not easy to find him in Queens since she only has an IP Address. The IP Address was traced at the apartment in Forest Hill of Queens, Captain America and Black Widow wait at the coffee shop because it's not to trace the identity of the mystery hacker.
Captain America mystery hacker cover his tracks, but even if Captain America and Black Widow have figure out the identity of the mystery hacker then the question they should be asking is why the hacker help Captain America to escape instead of turning him to the local PD.
"You are wondering what his motive for helping you, are you?" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow asked. "Yeah, the mystery seems to be working with Stark but why is he helping me and that's what I'm concern" says Steve Rogers/Captain America.
"I'm sure whatever your mystery hacker's motive is and it should be an honest one" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "Yeah, I just hope that Stark doesn't realize the hacker is someone within Stark Industries employee" says Steve Rogers/Captain America.
Beep, Beep.
"It's my informant, my informant is telling me that there is a new info about your mystery hacker and we got his identity" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow as the picture of Peter Parker appear on the screen of her Tablet. "Peter Parker, a 15-year-old kid hacked a maximum-security prison made by Stark Industries and this kid got some talent" says Steve Rogers/Captain America.
"Well, this kid is actually Spider-Man the one that you've met at Leipzig" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "Wait, are you suggesting that Spider-Man is just a little boy?" Steve Rogers/Captain America asked and Natasha nodded.
"Stark has completely gone too far, what was he thinking on recruiting a 15-year-old kid?" Steve Rogers/Captain America asked. "Well, here something you should read and his uncle was murdered when he receives his enhance power" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "Jesus, that kid have suffered too much and why is this kid help me?" Steve Rogers/Captain America wondered.
"Here he comes, the kid with the light color backpack and a Midtown Science School insignia" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow as she pointed out. "That's the kid, Stark's Protégé?" Steve Rogers/Captain America asked. "Yup, that's him and let's follow him then interact with him" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow.
Therefore, Peter Parker is heading for the Starbucks Coffee Restaurant to drink coffee and hopefully looking for Captain America's location. However, Peter is going to get his own surprise when Captain America and Black Widow interact with him.
"Hey kid, hacking a government system is illegal" says Steve Rogers/Captain America as Captain America and Black Widow begins to sit at the same table as Peter. "I have no idea what you're talking about" says Peter Parker/Spiderman with denial.
"We know it was you Peter, or should you be called Spiderman?" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow asked. "How did you— "It's okay kid, we're not going to tell anyone and just tell me why you help in the raft prison" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "I have my own reason, it's complicated" says Peter Parker/Spiderman.
"We like to hear it from you" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow as Peter sigh. "I watched the news of what happen in London, you were being lure into a trap and becoming a traitor plus I cannot allow you to become a traitor because you inspire me to become a hero" Peter Parker/Spiderman explained.
"You know, when I first fight you and I thought you were an ordinary kid but when I read your file and I was shocked. You're a good kid and you got heart, but I didn't know you have suffered when your Uncle was murdered" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "Thank you, it was my ignorance to my uncle that made me the hero I am today and I will not stop also I will not let the government stop me" says Peter Parker/Spiderman.
"So, I assume there is more to this meeting and I can tell that you two aren't going to convert me" says Peter Parker/Spiderman. "No, we both can agree to disagree" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "Here, keep this one and we'll be in touch" says Steve Rogers/Captain America as he handed over a burner phone left the Restaurant.
As Captain America and Black Widow left the area, Tony Stark unexpectedly contact Black Widow because of their annoyance of disturbing his protégé.
"Hello Stark, I haven't heard anything from you lately" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "Very funny, Star Spangle" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "Now, I don't know what you two are doing but don't okay" Tony Stark/Iron Man warned. "Uh, don't what?" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow asked to irritate him.
"Oh, I don't know show up out of nowhere and do nothing but bother my protégé. I know international law doesn't suit the both of you ever since what happen in Serbia, but seriously leave him alone" Tony Stark/Iron Man warned. "You know why we're interested in him right?" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow asked.
"You know most people would hit driving age before going up against HYDRA-made super soldiers" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "That's not what this is and look, I'm not trying to stop him and he's literally a superhuman. But I can make what's he doing even less dangerous, I have the technology to do that and I'm sharing it. If he wants to help out and he can, contrary to popular belief and I'm not a psychopath" Tony Stark/Iron Man explained.
"Wow Tony, how noble of you to bubble wrapping the child that you brought into combat" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "I didn't make him to do this, I didn't bring him into anything and Germany was voluntary or whatever the papers are calling it. He's got a great talent, if I want to help him to develop that and that's between the two of us also you aren't involved" says Tony Stark/Iron Man.
"If we wanted to talk to him, that's between the two of us" says Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. "I'm not doing any harm, I'm not the one who bugged him and the suit is bugged but not him plus he's not supposed to take it everywhere" says Tony Stark/Iron Man. "Does the kid knows that?" Steve Rogers/Captain America asked.
"Yes, he builds his fighting tech from scratch and if he didn't want them then they wouldn't be there plus he's not stupid" says Tony Stark/Iron Man as Natasha hung up. "That went well" says Steve Rogers/Captain America. "Okay, now what?" Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow asked. "I need to keep tabs on him, I believe he could be a valuable ally to me" says Steve Rogers/Captain America.
Therefore, Captain America and Black Widow return to the safe house to take break but Captain America wanted to learn more about Spiderman because there has to be more to this.
That's all
