Story 3: Spider-Man/Black Panther: When the Klaws Strike Part 3
Spider-Man and Black Panther turned around and stepped back as the Klaw walked up to them and stopped.
Spider-Man: Wait wait.. Hold up.. The hand of the Klaw? Seriously? That's a bit redundant dude.
Black Panther shaked his head before he looked at his old adversary.
Black Panther: I figured that you were behind such theft. You do recall the last time we fought, Klaw. Your sound blaster can't stop me. So, I suggest you surrender, Ulysses, or taste defeat by my hand.
Klaw: Oh, I can taste something alright, T'Challa…
He aims the device over his right arm and aims it at the two heroes.
Klaw: I can taste my own victory!
He fires the device as sound waves blast the heroes into two separate directions as Black Panther hits the floor as Klaw walks up to him.
Klaw: So, you want to know what happened to those missing Vibranium ore, don't cha? Well, simple. I used it to make my new Klaw device!
Before Black Panther can get up to react, he gets constantly blasted by the device, which brings great pain to him.
Klaw: How does it sound, T'Challa? Are you listening? Can you hear everything now? Good. With the rest of the Vibranium I collected, I'll make HUNDREDS of my Klaw devices and soon, Wakanda will be MINE, not yours!
As he kept blasting Wakanda, Spider-Man got up as he landed in the Vibranium container.
Spider-Man: Ok.. ow… that stung My ears and entire body are ringing. AM I YELLING?! Ok.. at least i'm in my head again… Geez, my own bones are rattling as I can still feel the blast…
He rubbed his head as he turned his head to see Black Panther getting blasted by Klaw and his eyes widened.
Spider-Man: Oh no, Black Panther's in deep trouble! Come on, Peter, think.. Wait.. no… LISTEN for a moment.
Spider-Man picks up two nuggets of Vibranium and examines them as he can feel the metal vibrate.
Spider-Man: The Vibranium is well, like its namesake, vibrating on every level. You can feel it.. Heck.. even HEAR it. It can absorb sound waves, meaning…
Spider-Man puts the Vibranium on his ears as all sounds went quiet as he felt the vibranium shake as his eyes widened as he got an idea. He gets up, webbed the metal to his ears, and web swung as he kicked Klaw in the face away from Black Panther.
Spider-Man: RIGHT FOOT, FUCKING CORNER POCKET!
Spider-Man lands on the ground as Klaw stands, dazed. He aims his wrist and rapidly fires webbing.
Spider-Man: HEY KLAWSY! WHY DON'T YOU JUST FUCKING HANG AROUND A WHILE!I MEAN IT'S BETTER THAN THE SOUND HELL YOU MADE RIGHT?! OH AND ANOTHER THING, YOUR MOTHER MUST BE-
Black Panther got up and walked to the screaming teenager.
Black Panther: Spider-Man? Spider-Man!
Spider-Man: ALSO, YOU FU-
Black Panther: SPIDER-MAN! CAN YOU UNCOVER YOUR EARS FOR A MOMENT?!
The deafened Spider-Man turns around to the Panther.
Spider-Man: WHAT?! OH…
Spider-Man takes the Vibranium webbing off his ears and throws it aside.
Spider-Man: Sorry.. My bad… Was I screaming? I was so screaming, right?
Black Panther: Yelling, really. You should really wash out that mouth of yours, young one.
Spider-Man: Uuuh…. I won't tell if you won't tell..?
Spider-Man chuckles awkwardly as he just walks over and starts webbing Klaw's goons together for a moment, embarrassed, before walking back to Black Panther.
Spider-Man: So uh.. What do we do with them?
Black Panther: I shall talk with Nick Fury and hand them over to him while I take the Vibranium back to Wakanda. Also, Spider-Man, you are welcome to the gates of Wakanda any time you wish. I allow it.
Spider-Man: Wow! Uh.. Thanks.. And also thanks for the advice. Are you sure you weren't bitten by a genetically altered jungle cat?
Black Panther: Yes I am sure. You see, Spider, Listening is always the answer both in combat and every part of life. When you do listen, you open multiple doors of possibilities. Entire worlds where the mundane becomes-
Black Panther looks around before looking up to see Spider-Man web swinging away.
Spider-Man: Listening. Got it. See you later, T'Challa.
Black Panther groans before walking off.
Black Panther: Americans..
Midtown High, 2 Days Later
Peter walked into the school with Mary Jane as she was talking to him about her offer.
Peter: T'Challa's right as always. I guess that's why he's a king and all. So, I braced myself for the week, but I listen this time and I keep listening.
Mary Jane: I respect not entirely rejecting, Pete. Nervous to say something I know. But, there's no reason for us to NOT both help Harry like there's no reason to barely study with just one person. I can help with the history and home ed stuff, you can still do the math and science… Maybe he can luckily do the rest. What do you say?
Peter: Uhm… sure. I'm in.
Mary Jane: Great, tell him to meet us at the library after school.
The school day goes on like normal until when the bell rings, Peter walks with Harry to the school library as they both see Mary Jane leaning on a table with books there.
Harry: MJ.. Are you sure about this? The reason Peter's tutoring me was because of my dad and-
Mary Jane: Yes, I am totally sure, Osborn. From now on, that's going to change, become a package deal. All 3 of us are going to study together from now on. If you don't like it, well too bad.
Harry sits down with a sigh before he chuckles a little and looks at Peter.
Harry: I question how she was your friend since childhood, Pete.
Peter: Heh, I still wonder why myself sometimes.
The three start cracking open the books and start studying together as Peter looks at the both of them with a smile.
Peter: What I'm listening to now is actually peaceful about this new study arrangement. After we were done, Harry gave me a bagel, but I noticed it was extra yummy than usual. Thanks, Harry and thanks, MJ for everything. And hey you, Thanks for listening to another episode of Peter talks.
