Ok here's the next chapter! Gonna be a little bit until I update again because I move into my dorm on monday, then I got orientation, then classes start. So I'll try to find time but honestly I make no promises. Sorry in advance, but I hope you'll all bear with me. Regardless, enjoy!


Spider-Man, Powerman, and Ava stood before Kraven. They'd made it onto the Raft and finally confronted the one who stole the White Tiger amulet.

"Ava, stay back. I don't need you getting hurt before you get you're powers back. Not that I'm okay with you getting hurt at all it's just that with no amulet…" Spider-Man turned to his teammate and signaled her to hang back.

"I got it webhead, I'll try to help any way I can but I'm perfectly aware of my current handicap." Ava reassured him.

"No more talk. It's time you learned that only I can truly unleash this power!" Kraven was getting serious now. He obviously saw this as the most insulting gesture of bravado in the history of humanity and bad facial hair.

Oh great, he's still an egomaniac. Like I really need that at a time like this.

"Yeah we've heard it a thousand times Kraven, and guess what? NOBODY CARES." Spider-Man said, eager to end this quickly.

Kraven was furious now. Not just insulted, not only angry, but furious. His honor was everything to him. Respect was the only thing he ever thought mattered.

The amulet started to glow a bright green around Kravens neck. He started to change into a more animal-like form. Teeth became fangs, fingers grew claws, and his eyes shot a primal and bloodthirsty gaze at his foes.

"He's all animal now, pure rage and focus. Kraven only wants to see us dead, and he could definitely do it with that kind of power." Ava informed her friends.

"Yeah well it clearly hasn't done much for his appearance. He's even uglier now than he was with that stupid vest that shot lasers out of the eyes, that thing was dumb." Spider-Man laughed a little then noticed Kraven was gone. He had lost track of him after paying attention to Ava. "Well, crap. Anybody see where George of the Jungle went?"

"I got nothing Spidey." Luke looked around to no avail.

"Me neither, wait I hear something!" Ava sensed a rustling in the trees to her left.

"AVA! GET DOWN!" Spider sense blaring, Kraven lept out of the leaves and lunged at Ava.

"GRAAAAH!" Kravens roar could make anyone uneasy, but Spider-Man jumped towards him and blindsided Kraven with a kick to the face.

"You totally ignored me! I'm actually kind of insulted Kraven, here I thought we had something special." The masked hero faked wiping a tear when Kraven got up and threw a spear at him.

The spear didn't make contact thanks to Spider-Man's reflexes, but the dodge was just in time nonetheless.

Well the flaming tip is new, but still, point taken.

Spider-Man shot a web at Kravens face to blind him, hopefully his animal side would make him less strategic and this opportunity could be a break they'd need.

Powerman saw this and ran up behind Kraven, he picked him up and threw the Russian tiger-man at his teammate. Spider-Man swung into the air and connected with a punch to the stomach.

"Okay that had to hurt, tell me he's at least a little winded." Spider-Man seemed fairly confident in that last maneuver.

It didn't last.

Kraven got right back up and he only seemed angrier.

Of course. Thanks to the good ole Parker Luck.

"Powerman, any ideas?" Spider-Man asked.

"Aside from hit him really hard? Sorry webs I got nothing right now." Powerman responded, he then readied himself for another attack.

Kraven jumped up high into the trees, using his tiger side to hide in the jungle canopy. Spider-Man went up after him and hopped on a branch.

Ok, my spider sense should tell me when I'm getting close. Now I just have to wait for…

That familiar buzzing in the back of Spider-Man's head.

Yeah that! Oh wait, that means…

"RAAAH!" Kraven jumped down and pinned Spider-Man on a branch, his claws constantly swiping at the hero's throat.

"Wow, supercalafragilistic chronic halitosis! Breath mint please!" Spider-Man struggled to get free, the raw strength of the tiger amulet about to overpower him.

Then the sound of bark crunching and roots being pulled was heard by all.

Powerman was right below them, lifting up the tree hoping to free his friend. As the tree was raised up out of the ground Spider-Man and Kraven rolled out of the leaves and onto the ground below. Spider-Man was the first to regain his bearings and jumped backward away from Kraven. Powerman took the tree he was holding and slammed it on Kraven.

"Thanks for the save, I'm not that fond of being lunch." Spider-Man stretched his sore muscles, falling out of a tree will do that.

"No problem, do you think he's out?" Powerman motioned to Kraven, his body not moving for the last few moments.

"Hopefully, although my spider sense isn't going off so he might be." Spider-Man walked over to Kravens body lying on the ground. "Let's take that amulet before he wakes up."

Spider-Man bent over and took hold of the amulet. As he started to tug on it he was stopped.

Kraven woke up and grabbed the wallcrawler by the neck and started choking him out. Spider-man struggled free himself from Kravens grasp but could feel himself getting weaker.

Powerman ran up to Kraven but was swatted away, Spider-Man was slowly losign consciousness.

"Crap! Spidey! I'll get him off you just hold on!" Powerman got back up and went back for another attack.

Well, I think I'm done, can't stay awake…

Spider-Man had passed out and his body went limp in Kravens hand.

Kraven saw this and used both of his hands to finally end the teen hero.

Powerman took advantage of the distraction and sucker punched Kraven in the jaw with a massive uppercut. As Kraven staggered back his grip loosened around Spider-Man's neck and was met with a black suited foot kicking him in the stomach. Spider-Man backflipped out of danger and lunged forward with a flurry of punches and kicks, giving Kraven no time to respond.

With that Spider-Man crouched and shot a web line at Kraven, it attached itself to his chest and Spider-Man pulled. Kraven flew straight toward Powerman and was met by a large fist straight in the face.

It was done, Kraven lay there knocked out and the amulets glow dissipated. The Hunter slowly returned to his human form and Ava walked over and finally regained her amulet from his neck.

"This has been a long time coming, thanks guys." Ava held the amulet in her hand and thanked Luke. "Thanks Parker, you really pulled it off, I wasn't sure you could do it. Parker?"

Spider-Man had also fallen to the ground and lie on the ground unconscious.

"Guess he really pushed himself, did well though. Let's get back to the city." Luke picked up Peter and started walking back from the Quinjet. He noticed Ava wasn't with him. He looked back to see her standing over Kraven.

"Ava? What're you doing? We can't exactly throw him in jail or call Fury." Luke didn't get a response.

Ava picked up the spear from the ground.

"Hey Ava? What's that for?" Still no response. "AVA! DON'T DO WHAT I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO!"

"He deserves it. For everything he did. He needs to be ended." She was crying as she stood over him and readied the spear.

"You can't do this Ava! What would Peter say right now!? How would he react after he finds out you killed someone!? Even someone as evil as Kraven!?"

"…"

"You know you can't do this." I need to get to her! Webs was always better than me at this stuff.

"Ava, please."

The spear fell to the ground. Ava walked back to Luke and Peter.

"Let's just go back home." She said, walking past the guys.

Luke just went back after her.

That was close, but maybe now she'll be back to normal since the amulet is back with her. I'm just grateful we beat Kraven, almost forgot how much I enjoyed seeing Spidey work, I missed that.

The three of them boarded the Quinjet and made for the city, Danny's rescue was coming soon.
