It was quiet afternoon as Peter and Chun Li were hand and hand walking through the park together. MJ and Felicia weren't around, so Peter didn't think he'd find love again. But that all changed after his confession, Peter felt even close to her then ever. But they still maintained their partnership through their relationship.
There was still the question of who was really pulling the strings through the operation, whether it was Dr. Doom, Wesker, Shadaloo, S.I.N or other major crime organizations. But the two still had their suspicion regardless. For now, it was their day out together. The two stopped by an Interpol nearby office as Peter dropped off Chun Li.
"I have some following up to do on my report, so I'll see you then, okay. Be careful." She said kissing him the cheek.
"Alright, I'll catch up with you later." He waved.
Spider-man did his usual patrol around the city as he swung from building to building. Most of the dock areas were clear of crime activity. Even the banks were quiet during the night. Spider-man was plagued with curiosity of why there was no crime in sight. But maybe he wasn't looking clear enough. So Spidey had gone in for a closer look. Spider-man spider sense had triggered him of danger as he was attacked from behind.
The foe that attacked Spidey was a familiar face. He looked up to reveal Crimson Viper.
"Well, isn't this a sudden turn of events? It seems like you never learn do you! Don't worry I'll make sure you share cell with all the other super wackos!" he challenged.
She quickly halted Spider-man movement and said, "Relax web-head. I'm not here to fight. I merely got your attention, and besides we are on the same side. I got a lead that Gabriel Jones, a former shield agent, is here. He is my husband."
Spider-man rolled his eyes, "Yeah, good luck with that."
WHACK! Spider-man was about to leave, but his web was cut off from the line.
"Foolish bug, hasn't anyone taught you that it's rude to walk away, while somebody is talking or does ignorance run in your vile insect mind?" a mysterious voice insulted.
There was another female that appeared before the web-head. She had short silver hair, pale white skin and wearing a bow, dress suit and small boots. She was also viciously armed with a whip. She folded her arms as she held a deep scowl on her face.
"Who the heck are you…and aren't you too young to be playing hero?" Spider-man paused.
WHACK! Spider-man was cut off stricken by her whip
Spider-man held his hand over his head in pain, "Ow! That hurt, what are you?"
"Hmph! You are foolish as you're dimwitted! With that being said I believe introductions are in order." She grunted.
"Greetings Spider-man, I am Franziska Von Karma, the new district attorney. And you should be honored that she had recruited your services for this operation." She greeted grumbly.
"I don't recall agreeing to this and besides me and Shield doesn't exactly mix." Spider-man turned his head.
She pointed her whip at Spidey, "Silence! You are duty bound, and you certainly cannot denial trouble that is near."
Spider-man sighed conceding to their demands, "So what are we working with?"
"It would seem that lately ever since the Mandarin's demise there has been a great increase of international dealings with major organizations. These events had taken place from Latveria, China, Russia and New York's underground. There has even been speculation that big companies were involved with this situation." She explained.
Spider-man scratched his head and wondered, "Really who is it?"
"Our resources say S.I.N; subdivision of Shadaloo, has been supplying weapons bought from super criminals. One of them is A.I.M. And rumor they have even been dealing to major organizations. But so far we lack the evidence against them." Franziska continued.
"That's where we come in; as far as gathering evidence against them, I need you to help me rescue someone of mine web-head. That way we'll hear his side of the story and put them down once and for all." Crimson Viper explained.
Franziska Von Karma lashed her whip, "Keep me updated with the progress report, and if you slip out of line, then you'll answer to me as well as all of Shield!"
"You heard the lady, be on your best behavior." Viper lectured.
"Okay, okay! I get it, I'll help you, it's not like I have a choice." He complained.
One black BMW's cars arrived at a dark ally. Spider-man and Crimson Viper had stood on the lookout. They waited for whoever makes the first move. One A.I.M scientist had suitcase of cash, while the black suited man had a crate of weapons.
An A.I.M scientist handed a black suited man, "This weapon will prove useful to your organization."
"We of A.I.M, thank you for your cooperation. This will benefit us truly."
Spider-man caught the men in his webs. Having been found out, the men from A.I.M scientists quickly made their way towards their vehicles. Crimson but Viper had already knocked out most of the thugs with her static fist.
The A.I.M scientist released hidden box, "We should have guessed you would come. Our master Modok doesn't like delays, so this should keep you preoccupied."
Box had opened to reveal a dark skinned Shield agent with short black hair. He was surrounded by purple energy flowing around him. Crimson Viper was paralyzed with shock. It was Gabriel Jones at last, right in front of her. She was hesitating to fight him, but she had to defend herself.
"We had found him and decided to make a few changes. Try not to hurt him too badly." the A.I.M scientist taunted.
"Viper, I'll go after these guys, you'll handle him personally." Spidey announced.
Meanwhile Spider-man chased after the men in the black BMW car. The men tried to keep Spider-man off their trail as they fired a multiple amounts of blasts. He slowed down the vehicle by webbing up the tires. Before they could react, Spidey captured the thugs in his webs.
Spider-man grabbed the thug and demanded answers, "Okay scum bucket, who is your boss and who are you working for?"
They exclaimed, "Screw you web-for-brains! We'll never talk!"
"Should I assume S.I.N?" Spider-man guessed.
Having been found out, the thugs turned their heads refusing to say another word. While he was talking with the tugs, a Miniature, Latverian, robot flew by scanning the S.I.N thugs and their weapons. It was so small it was even undetectable by Spider-man's spider senses. But he still had his guard up nontheless.
Gabriel Jones fired a barrage of purple negative energy at Viper. She didn't know what to do as she kept evading his attacks. She did not want to fight nor hurt him, but she had to do something. Viper attacked him with flaming kick, but Gabriel tossed her the side.
Spider-man caught her in his webs and teased, "Hope I'm not interrupting this family get together?"
"Just help me take him down web-head!" she shouted.
He joked, "What's the magic word?"
"Now! Or else!" Crimson Viper exclaimed.
Spider-man caught him in his web. Next, Viper generated a powerful electric shockwave towards Gabriel. The attack was very intense. He was put down on the spot. The A.I.M scientist aimed their blasters at Spider-man and Crimson. The two were about to surrender, but the moment was cut short as a group of Shield agents outnumbered the A.I.M scientist as they called out "Attention A.I.M, by the order of Shield, you are under arrest!"
Thus, the harsh battle was avoided.
Gabriel woke up in a Shield infirmary. His head was spinning nonstop. He didn't know what happened or where he was. Crimson Viper stood by his side worried about his condition.
"Maya, where am I? And what happened to me?" he grunted weakened.
Crimson Viper smiled in relief as tear ran down her face, "It's alright dear. Everything is going to be fine. You're in safe hands now." She grasped his hand firmly.
"He was one of our best agents. According to our medical specialist, A.I.M preformed some serious experiments on this guy. His DNA is now mutant. He's lucky to even be alive. As for the A.I.M agents, we were able to gather enough evidence against them to put them away for good. Even Franziska Von Karma was impressed with your skills, so she will be in charge prosecuting A.I.M." Nick explained.
"So what's going to happen to him?" he inquired.
Nick continued, "For now, all he needs is bed rest. He will be reinstated as a Shield agent momentary. And I also made contact with Professor Charles Xavier. He'll be able to teach him out to use his newfound mutant powers."
Viper confronted Spidery, "I guess I owe you my thanks web-head."
Spider-man rubbed the back of his head, "Forget about it. I'm always here to help. Well I got to go meet up with Chun Li."
She turned her back, "Just don't get in my way next time or I'll put you down!"
