Chapter Fourteen: House Arrest

Spiderman's POV

Yep, it's your friendly neighborhood me, getting beaten up by a guy in a bearsuit. Eh, banana peel.

Grizzly! Another run of the mill thief in an exo-bear suit. He's on SHIELD's most wanted list at number one- hundred and seventy-three. Left you in suspense there, didn't I?

Griz ran and attacked. I did my normal 'spider' (heh heh, pun) thing and jumped over him and thwiped to the roof. "You're barely a challenge." Stopped Grizzly from stealing a picnic basket... full of diamonds. Grizzly was suddenly flying towards me. "Uh oh. Isn't there a forest fire you should be putting out somewhere? Think about it."

No offense to his intelligence, actually alot of offense, but he wasn't exactly intelligent. Barely any other the thieves were intelligent. And Grizzly was not one of those. "Huh? Hey! I'm gonna pound you!" Like I said, not that smart. He picked up part of the roof and flung it at me. As normal, I dodged it until he got me in a hug.

"Gah!" Breathmints or deodorant please?

"My bear hug will shut you once and for all!"

Great, another tight squeeze. As if I don't have enough of those in my life. My house is barely big enough for me and Aunt May. But with the whole gang? I'm starting to think it was a bad idea inviting them to stay while the Helicarrier is being built.

PM using all the hot water, White Tiger hogging the computer, Nova 'helping' with the cooking, Iron Fist with his incense. I'm at least glad Nightwatcher doesn't live at my house, but she has this huge house that she could take a few of the team, preferably the boys? But all things considered, getting mauled by a guy in a bear suit is better than going home.

I electrifed the bear suit (and me) and fell to the ground. Speaking of the devils...

"Webs, looks like you need a hand." Power Man.

I stood up and wiped myself clean on dirt. "Come on guys, I don't need you here. I got this one covered."

"Is that so?" I felt Grizzly grab my leg and Spidey-sense go off a bit to late. Thanks."Uh-oh. Whoa!" Grizzly started swinging me around and hit the team. "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!" Then he dropped me onto the ground. "Ow!" Then he threw me off the roof.

Griz ain't to clear on the whole Spiderman thing is he? I thwiped a launcher. "So distracted I almost got myself street spanked. I gotta talk to my team about giving me my elbow room." I landed on the roof and looked at Grizzly. "Seriously, out of all the exoskeleton suits you could wear-a bear? Are we now officially out of animals to make super villains out of?"

"Vultures! And wolves!" I heard Nightwatcher shout.

Nova tackled Grizzly as I was trying to resulting in me falling. Nightwatcher helped me up. "Are you keeping track?"

"Yes!"

The whole team got in attack or punch, including Nightwatcher who straight up punched him before sending him to me. "Finally! My turn!" I punched him off the building into a garbage can. A bunch of policemen showed up, including a helicopter. "Uh-oh. I usually just leave the 'Fro. Your friendly neighborhood Spiderman' note and split. Otherwise there's all this paperwork. I hate paperwork." I talked to the team. I'm gonna blow. Can you guys help me out with the boys in," I turned to see no one there. "Blue?" The helicopter light fell on me. "Oh great. Just great."

Mason's POV

"He's gonna be ticked when he finds out about the party."

Sam and I were walking down the stairs of the Parker residence. I was the only one who had changed into street clothes and shoes already while the others got the rest ready.

"It was your idea."

"That I didn't think you'd go for!"

"You've known us for a couple weeks. When have we ever said no to something completely outrageous?" He smirked from under his bucket. We reached the bottom of the stairs where Peter was with a pile of books. "You! Oh, um, your room is a mess. Uh, go upstairs and clean it." He shoved Pete towards the stairs. I mouthed 'smooth' and he glared.

"Since when do you five me orders?" Sam and I rushed through the door and I pointed at Danny then Luke who walked towards the door. Distractions.

Nova's phone went off. "Hey MJ." He looked at Pete. "No. Um, I can't talk right now because of that thing that we talked about."

"Why is she calling you? Hey, I want-" The doorbell went off and we all looked at each other. Shit. "Now what?" He walked towards the door and I rushed out along with the others. He glared at us. "That's why you ditched me? So you could come home and throw a party?"

"Um, surprised?" Both me and Power Man said.

"We are not having a party." Cue the finger point. "I don't want Flash Thompson touching my stuff! Besides, in case you've forgotten, we have the one-eyed big brother looking over us. If we have a party, Fury will hear all about it."

"Like last time." I muttered, remembering him yelling about us having a karaoke/movie night that ended at five in the morning. Evil man.

"Relax. You guys change. Nova's got it covered."

"I feel scared." I said, earning a glare.

The rest of us went upstairs and I opened Nova's room. I had hid something for Pete in here and I needed it for the party. Ava had a picture and Sam had a cake while the other two tagged onto my gift. I pulled out the CD labeled Totally Awesome Track No. 1 written in Luke's surpringly readable handwriting. All the songs from our karaoke night were on there and a few others.

Suddenly, everything metaled up. What the hell? I knew Nova would screw something up. I opened the door. Well, attempted is a better word. "Are you kidding me?!"

"Intruder not recognized. Neutralized and terminate."

"Okay demon house, you can try." I growl and got ready to attack. A white gas flooded the room and I put a sleeve over my face. I started banging on the door. Fucking doors.

"Step back!"

I did what I was told and the door exploded. As the dust cleared and has faded, I was staring at Nova and Spidey. "What the hell took you so long?" I popped up and glared at them. "Where's everyone else?" I stepped out of the room and saw them. "Oh, hi!"

PM held out my Nightwatcher necklace. "You dropped this."

I took it and placed it over my head and I was wearing my Nightwatcher uniform. "Thanks Luke."

Nova's phone went off. "Hey MJ."

Spidey grabbed the phone out of Nova's phone. "Hey MJ. We aren't quite finished with the decorations yet! Bye!" He hung up. "We need to get to the attic, disable the com center, fix the house, and somehow all without our friends outside seeing who we really are!" The fridge burst out the floor. "Lame kitchen room at 12 o'clock."

"Intruders not identified. Neutralize with extreme prejudice!"

"I wonder if SHIELD has a returns department."

"Hostiles re-engaged. Neutralize and terminate."

Spidey dodged and we followed. "Okay team, follow my lead."

Do we listen? No.

Iron Fist attacked but got pinned. Same with Spidey.

"Oh no you don't." White Tiger ran and started slicing the machine and Nova blasted its hands off. The fridge in turn blasted a cold blast and PM stood in front.

"Is that the coldest you got? I can't even feel it." He punched it and I threw a ball of light at it. It backed up and blasted heat at us.

"Scatter!" I shout, putting up a small shield and deflecting it.

Spidey looked at us. "We have to shut down that thing before the house is—" The thing attacked again. "Is totally trashed. Okay, refocus. Attic at all costs! Nova!"

Nova nodded and blasted the attic door. "I'll get the door!"

PM tackled the bot. "GO!"

The others nodded and I stayed behind. PM might need some help. "MOVE!" PM let go and I blasted the machine again. It looked over and ran towards me. I side stepped and it ran into the wall. It turned and tackled both PM and I into the attic. "Ow!" I sat up and rubbed my head.

"Go for the kill switch! Meanwhile, can someone put that thing on ice?" Spidey yelled. I nodded and tried to put up another shield, failing as it jumped in front of us. I sighed as we attacked the machine again. This is stupid.

"Now my stovetop? After all we've been through?" Nova yelled.

"Technically not yours." I yelled at him.

Suddenly the machine shut down and the metal receded. "Whew! Everything's okay." We all nodded. "What do we do about Franken-Fridge?" As if for a comedic effect, it fell through the floors until it hit the basement. "We're dead. When Aunt May sees this we're all gonna be evicted."

"Not me."

"Shut up Mason."

It's short I know. I might rewrite this before Saturday.

Sorry. But be glad today is a two-chapter post...
