Chapter 3: Betrayal of Harry Osborn
Peter was horrified as he saw his best friend attack his house with a giant mech-type robot that was hell bent on destroying him and Jessica. Harry Osborn was Peter Parker's best friend who always stood by his side no matter what the cost. He protected Peter from bullies when he was in elementary school and junior high, and Peter would help him with his studies. It was a perfect symbiotic relationship: a true friendship that he had until now.
Peter yelled at Harry, "What the fuck is going on here Harry?! Why are you attacking Jessica and me?! I thought we were best buds!"
Harry replied, "Oh Pete, you've always trusted people too easily."
He set his controls for the dangerous mechanical arms to attack him and Jessica and said, "And, that will be your downfall, as it always has been."
Jessica started to slowly get up from her unconsciousness and looked at Harry and yelled, "YOU! You tried to rip me to pieces when you kidnapped me and took me to Oscorp!"
Harry noticed Jessica standing up and said, "Ah, look what we have here! Our escaped experiment! I should really take back what belongs to my father!"
Jessica started to tear up and said, "You're gonna regret coming here today, Harry. I'm going to end you here RIGHT NOW."
As she was about to jump and attack him, Peter held her back and said, "Jess, wait a minute! Our spidey-senses are not working right now! We can't just attack him blindly. Not only that, but his machine's arms are emitting some sort of weird electricity that seems to make our spider-powers vulnerable."
Harry replied, "How perceptive of you Peter. You see, I have dedicated my last 2 years to find ways to destroy super-humans like you. Each of my mechanical arms is made of triple-reinforced Adamantium and Carbonadium that is armed with 500,000 volts of electricity. Not even the great Tony Stark or Wolverine can cut through these arms! And of course…. My favorite: in the back, I've attached a sonar device that negates your spider-senses!"
Jessica said, "Shit! I've left my suit in the Hellicarrier!"
Peter, who already had his suit on, said to her, "How much time do you need?"
Jessica said, "5 minutes tops. I can still attach to walls and shoot my venom blasts," She then typed some sort of a code on her wristwatch.
Peter said, "You mean that green energy beam that you shot at the Goblin? You still haven't told me how you got that power, and you still haven't told me HOW you got your powers."
Jessica said, "Not now, Peter!" Peter replied as he launched himself in the air to attack Harry's robot, "I mean since you probably know everything about my life, it's only fair that you tell me the same thing you know?"
Jessica attached to herself on a wall of the topless Peter's house and thought to herself, You really won't believe it even I told you though.
Peter swung around the machine, dodging the long claw's attack as it lashed out towards him. He noticed a green beeping device that was on the robot's back. He landed on the robot's back and tried to pull out the device. He said to himself, "Man, What is this made out of? Thor's Hammer?"
Jessica was shooting her venom blasts at the robot, and the robot was just barely budging back. Harry screamed, "All your efforts are futile, puny spiders! Just give up your lives to me, and everything will go in a much smoother fashion!"
Peter said, "You know Harry, I know we haven't been hanging out as much as we need to. But you need to find a way to deal with these daddy issues and stop with the cheesy-ass villain one-liners from B-Movies goddamnit!"
He shot a web at Harry's cockpit and temporarily blinded him. He said, "Fuck you peter!"
Peter looked up to Jessica and said, "How much more time do you need?!"
Jessica jumped up high in the air to the sky and said, "In 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!"
A sleek, slim red and yellow metal container fell from the skies and released her suit. She acrobatically maneuvered her body as she took of her shirt and pants. Then in mid-air, she slid her right leg and left leg into her full classic body suit. She then put on her gloves and boots and her mask with S.H.I.E.L.D. modified lens with a yellow up-side down triangle covering her forehead. Then she spread her arms and out of her armpits, came out a weaving of spider webs and she was gliding in the air with them. Peter looked in total awe of that process as Jessica said, "Harry, I'm gonna fucking kill you today."
She shot out a pair of electro-webs from her web pits on her wrists as the the robot's circuit was starting to fry a little bit. Harry angrily yelled, "Damn it! More bugs to deal with!"
Peter yelled, "Jessica! Neutralize the sonar device on its back!"
She replied, "I'm on it, Pete!" She glided below the robot's back and shot another pair of electro-webs to disengage the sonar device from its back. She pulled on the attached sonar device and the sizeable chunk of metal landed on the ground with a loud thud.
Harry yelled, "No! Not the sonar device!"
Jessica yelled, "Peter! Hurry and combine your webs to mine so we can bring him down while his circuits are still fried!"
Peter and Jessica shot out their webs right below the robot's cockpit and their webs started to combine into a almost a very thick, rope-like material. Jessica yelled, "Pull!"
They both pulled hard and the robot slowly started to fall on its back.
KRAKOOM!
The robot was down. Harry quickly pushed the eject button and as the whole cockpit launched into the air and changed into a small jet and escaped.
Jessica screamed, "NO! Come back Harry! I'm gonna rip out your fucking throat!"
XXXXX
Peter gently tapped Jessica on her shoulder and said, "Jessica, it's ok. We've neutralized the threat! I mean my room got destroyed and I'll have to make another dumb excuse to Aunt May, but nobody died! So it's all good!"
Jessica turned around and angrily yelled at Peter, "HARRY'S STILL ALIVE! Do you have any fucking idea what he did to me when I was kidnapped in sophomore year?! That son of a bitch fucking tortured me!"
She started to tear up and looked at Peter in the eyes through her lenses of her mask and said, "Peter! He put needles in me and beat up my body for days! He was gonna cut out my organs and hang it up to dry as if I was a piece of meat!"
Peter replied, "But Harry could've not done that and do all this right now because he wants to! And why did he mention Norman Osborn?"
Jessica started to sob and scream in terror, "AHHH! DON'T SAY THAT NAME EVER AGAIN!"
Then there was a loud whirring sound in the air as the S.H.I.E.L.D. Hellicarrier started to drop below the ground. Nick Fury came down the stairway. He said, "What the hell happened here?!"
Peter replied, "Wait, you guys didn't track this robot that pretty much ripped apart my house in half?!"
Nick said, "Nothing came on our radar. We came as soon as possible when our sonar picked up a loud explosion in East Queens. This is the first time of anything like that to go undetected through our nose, which is not a good news at all."
Jessica wiped away her tears and said to Nick Fury, "Nick, it was Harry who was controlling the robot."
Nick said, "Oh no, Jessica did you try to kill him?!"
Jessica yelled, "Yeah, so what?!"
Nick angrily replied at her, "How many fucking times do I have to tell you that WE DO NOT KILL OUR TARGETS?! We only neutralize them so they can be held trial in the court of law! That's the number one rule in the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Handbook!"
Jessica yelled back at him, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME WANTING TO KILL A GUY WHO KIDNAPPED AND TORTURED ME FOR A WEEK?!"
Nick fury replied furiously, "Never mind that, but why in the world did you forget your suit?!"
Jessica replied in a frustrating manner, "Because that was the only way I could reach Peter! So he wouldn't think that I'm here to recruit him, you fucking dumbass!"
After many strings of profanity and conundrum exchanged between Spider-Woman and Nick Fury, things settled down a bit. Some staff members of S.H.I.E.L.D. came down to analyze the situation and came to collect the remaining samples of the damaged robot. Peter and Jessica were still in their costumes as they looked at each other in a awkward manner.
Jessica sheepishly walked up to Peter and said, "Hey."
Peter replied back, "Hey."
Jessica said, "Look, I'm sorry about yelling at you and causing just overall bullshit drama." She added, "This really wasn't the way how I imagined our reunion was going to end up."
Peter hugged her and rubbed her back gently and said, "It's ok. Like you said before, shit happens in life. And you're safe and sound after these 2 long years. That's a perfect reunion for me."
Peter then whispered to her ear, "I'll see you in the Hellicarrier."
Jessica happily said, "You're gonna join S.H.I.E.L.D.?! I'm so happy! I'm warning you though, it's not an easy road to become an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.!"
Peter replied, "Yeah, whatever Jess." He then went to Nick Fury and said, "Can we talk in private?"
Nick said, "Sure."
They went to a corner around the aircraft and Peter said to Nick. "I've decided to join S.H.I.E.L.D. Fury."
Nick said, "And about high time you did so."
Peter said to him, "Nick, I've never seen Jessica act that way before. Back when we were fighting Harry, she had this look in her eyes….that look you give when you're about to kill someone. And when I mentioned Norman Osborn, it was like I set off a mental trigger in her brain that made her go crazy! I've never seen her like that in these long years that I've known her!"
Nick Fury turned around to look at the empty skies and said, "She does have a history with those two, one that you probably don't know about it yet."
Peter replied, "No, she didn't get a chance to tell me that part of her origin story in exact detail."
Peter then went up to him and looked him in a worried manner and said, "He also said that he's been planning for 2 years to take out superheroes. And that robot's arms were just so powerful. It was made of a combination of triple-reinforced Adamantium and Carbonadium. He was planning to take out the Avengers, Fury!"
Nick replied as he scratched his head, "That is certainly going to cause a lot of problems in the future."
Peter said, "This problem is much bigger than me now, and I don't think I can solve this problem by myself. I need help, the entire world needs help."
Nick Fury gave a smile and said, "You certainly made a wide decision, Peter Parker."
Peter said, "By the way, you're gonna have to something about Aunt May. If she comes and sees this house, I'm gonna be in a very, VERY deep shit."
Then a Caucasian male with short brown hair and green eyes with a formally dressed attire said, "We can arrange a trip for her, Mr. Parker."
Nick Fury added, "A very long trip."
Peter asked the strange white male, "And, you are….?" He replied, "Agent Coulson. You can call me Phil."
Nick Fury said to Peter, "You're gonna need to bring some stuff that you need. Don't bring too much, only bring what you need."
Peter walked back to his house and Jessica followed him and asked, "Where are you going, Peter?"
Peter replied, "I'm just gonna get some stuff to bring on the Hellicarrier."
Jessica said, "Only bring what you need. Just bring some clothes and your electronics. They pretty much have EVERYTHING covered."
Peter packed his clothes from his old closet. He had a couple of pair of jeans, some basketball shorts and pajamas. He started to pack his shirts, which wasn't a grand collection either: He had some plain-colored shirts, he had a Captain America shirt, couple of American Eagle shirts and a Arcade Fire Funeral album tour shirt that he got from upstate New York.
Jessica held up the shirt and said to him, "Oh my god, you still have this shirt?"
Peter replied, "My favorite album from my favorite band…. I treasure this shirt very much."
Then he opened a hidden compartment from a corner of his room and opened a collection of his records. Jessica said in a surprised manner, "Is that what I think it is?"
Peter replied, "Yup, it's my record collection that I showed you when you came over to my house for the first time."
Jessica nostalgically looked through the records and said, "Arcade Fire, Fleet Foxes, Stylistics, Marvin Gaye, Bob Dylan, Stan Getz, Azymuth, Gang Starr, J Dilla, John Coltrane, D'Angelo….. little bit of everything. Just like how I remembered that day."
Peter began to pack his Chemistry set, his laptop, his phone charger, and put his crate of records next to his giant duffle bag. He then looked at his college applications and said to himself, "It looks like I'm gonna have to wait on these for a while."
Jessica said, "You'll be fine Peter. There's plenty of scientists on S.H.I.E.L.D. who you can nerd out with for hours, especially Dr. Connors!"
Peter said in a enthusiastic fanboy-ish manner, "You mean that Dr. Connors, the master and the father of Artificial Cloning?!"
Jessica said, "You're gonna have a lot better time than you think Peter."
Peter then reached out to pack the picture of Gwen and Him kissing into his bag and said, "I hope I can make her proud."
Jessica replied, "You already did, Peter." She then pulled his mask up half-way, gave him a light peck on his cheek and said, "You kicked ass today, dork-face. I'll see you on the Hellicarrier."
Peter blushed as she sensually walked in front of him and flew back to the Hellicarrier. Peter thought to himself, God, she looks so hot in that costume. He brought over his stuff into the Helicarrier as he walked along the stairway to began his new part of journey as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
