Chapter 6: A Day Unlike Any Other. PSYCHE!
It had been a week since the Arena had been attacked. Luckily no serious damage was done thanks to Spider-Man, with some saying they also saw the mysterious Daredevil at the scene as well. It wasn't all good news however as many Equalists were found dead inside, having been shot and apparently slashed by a sword. Lin's plan of catching the vigilantes was also a bust, with Spider-Man evading escape easily and Daredevil was only allegedly there, though some witnesses claimed to have seen a man that matched the Punisher's description leaving the Arena.
In all honesty it was enough to make Chief Beifong scream her head off. To top it all off she was now getting reports of some kind of grey monster in the woods outside the city limits.
"And those bounty hunters I hired still haven't come close to catching The Punisher." Lin said as she rubbed her temples, trying to fight back the impending headache. Suddenly she heard the sounds of a couple of her officers talking from outside her door, from the sounds of they were trying to stop someone from entering. Suddenly her door was kicked in with a red clad man, wearing a red mask with large black circles around the eyes barging in with a large sack thrown over his shoulder.
"In this sack I have your man, now gimme my money!" The masked man said, toss the human sized bag on the desk in front of him.
"Perhaps you should take him out of the bag so I can see him for myself?" Lin said, clearly annoyed.
"Oh, right." The bounty hunter said as he took out a small knife and cut the bag open. Inside was a very skinny young man, wearing glasses, who was bound and gagged with several bruises on his face.
"WEASEL? What're you doing here? I told you to wait in the van!" The masked man said as he took the strip of cloth off the smaller man's mouth, as well as pulling what looked like a rather dirty sock out of his mouth.
"I TOLD YOU AMBUSHING RANDOM PEOPLE AT NIGHT WOULDN'T WORK WING!" The spectacled man yelled in anger.
"It WAS dark! How was I supposed to know it was you!" Wing yelled right back as he placed his hands on his hips and leaned forward looking Weasel in the eye.
"What about when I was screaming 'It's me Weasel?" The smaller man asked through clenched teeth.
"Weasel's a common name, as far as I know, the skull guy could've been named Weasel." Weasel just stared at Wing and said,
"First of all, Weasel is a nickname and you know it! Second of all, what kind of fugitive shouts his own name?" Wing stayed quiet for a moment, before he jammed the sock back in Weasel's mouth and fixed the cloth back on. The smaller man continued to rant, his voice extremely muffled.
"I'll be back! I'll leave no stone un-turned, no buckle un-swashed, no man alive, until I find The Punishmentor or my name isn't Deadpool!" Wing said as he carried Weasel out of the room. At this point Lin had to but in and say,
"It's The Punisher and your name is what?" Deadpool simply turned around and replied,
"Deadpool. Please, don't ask me where that comes from because apparently a CERTAIN Captain hasn't thought up a proper backstory for me yet! Toodles!" And with that he slammed the door shut, causing the entire office to rattle. Lin opened a drawer in her desk and pulled out a bottle of whiskey, opened it, and took a huge swig of it.
"Some days I really hate my life." The Chief said as she then took another big swig of alcohol.
"Okay, so what now?" Deadpool asked himself as he wandered down the streets, having thrown Weasel in the back of his van a couple of hours ago.
"By the way, what was with me using guns last chapter? In fact, what was with Punisher using guns? I thought this show didn't have 'em."
'Because, Punisher uses guns and so do you. Besides given how advanced Legend of Korra is compared to Last Airbender in terms of tech, I think they'd at LEAST have flintlock guns.'
"Okay, but why flintlocks? Those things only get one shot each and then it takes FOREVER to reload!"
'Look just be glad I gave you guns at ALL! Besides, if I used anything else then I'd REALLY get flamed.'
"Fine. Wait, if Weasel is in the story, does that mean Bob will be in here too?"
'Sorry, no spoilers!'
"Aw come on! Who do you think you are? The Doctor?"
At this moment, Deadpool ran smack dab into none other than Avatar Korra herself. Both of them got up off the ground and dusted themselves off. Korra was about to make a snappy comeback, but was interrupted.
"WOW! I can't believe it! Face to mask with the Avatar herself!" Deadpool said as he danced around excitedly. He then pulled a notebook and pen from a pocket in his red jacket.
"Can I have your autograph?" The unstable bounty hunter asked. Korra, completely thrown, just grabbed the book and pen and said,
"Uh, sure." Korra then scribbled her name down, before noticing several odd names like Joe Kelly, Rob Liefeld, and Fabian Nicieza.
"Um..." Deadpool then quickly grabbed the book and shook Korra's hand vigorously.
"Well this has been great, but since Captain Ash just wanted a funny chapter with me doing stuff, I gotta get going!" Deadpool said as he then ran off, leaving a very confused Korra.
Deadpool wandered around a supposed Equalist base, one of his swords drawn.
"I'll teach them to mess with a man's meal!" The manic bounty hunter exclaimed, still holding a vendetta against the Equalist's ruining of his firewraps, as he rushed in through the backdoor. He spotted a lone Equalist mopping the floor and quickly grabbed him and pushed him up against the wall. Before Deadpool could slit his throat he took a look at his victim's attire. He wore a dark green outfit, with what looked like a cowl over his head just exposing his nose, mouth, and chin.
"Hmm, what's you're name?" Deadpool asked the man, causing him to stutter out,
"Bo-bo-bo..." Deadpool then cut him off and said,
"I'll just call ya Bob!" The masked swordsman then let the man go. Bob dropped to the ground, wetting himself in the process, as he asked,
"Who are you?" Deadpool smirked behind his mask and said,
"I'm just the greatest bounty hunter in all the world! Wing, Deadpool, Watari is the name and being a bad ass is my game!" At this moment 20 Equalists came walking in, casually unaware at first but then quickly spotted his bright red attire. They aimed they're electric gloves at him, but Deadpool merely drew his swords as he said,
"Bob, I like you! So I'm gonna liberate you from this collection of dinner messer-uppers!" The red clad swordsman then leaped at the group, quickly dispatching all of them as an ocean of blood filled the area. He sheathed his swords and looked over at Bob, who sat in silence.
"Aw, don't tell me I ALREADY scarred you for life!" Deadpool said as he walked over to Bob. Suddenly Bob leaped up and yelled,
"THAT WAS TOTALLY BAD ASS!" Suddenly Bob was at Deadpool's feet, bowing as he said,
"Teach me your ways Mr. Watari!" Deadpool was shocked by this, but after a moment of thought replied,
"Meh, what the hell!"
It was early one morning as Korra woke up to the sound of Ikki and Meelo screaming excitedly. She pulled herself from her bed and walked outside to see what the commotion was about, only to see an iceberg floating not more than 20 feet away from the island. Tenzin walked up and yawned.
"Just a hunk of ice that floated up from the South Pole kids." He said as he tried to calm his two youngest children. Korra was about to head back to bed, when she saw something in the iceberg that got rid of any tiredness she had. It was the rough shape of a human body. Suddenly the mental image of being in ice then seeing the face of a young Katara flashed through her mind. She quickly leaped over to the iceberg and bent it open. Inside was a man, roughly in his mid to late 20's. He had the distinguishing features of being from the Fire Nation though it was hard to tell as he wore a dark blue mask that covered most of his head and face. He also wore Water Tribe attire and there was a triangular shield strapped to his left arm. The shield had a green Air Nomad arrow on it, with A Water Tribe symbol in the middle of it making reference to three of the four nations.
Tenzin then airbended over to see what Korra had found. He saw the shield and his eyes widened as he whispered out,
"The Nomad?"
