Chereads / MARVEL: Mutants Among Us / Chapter 9 - CHAPTER 8 : MAN OF SHEER F**KING WILL

Chapter 9 - CHAPTER 8 : MAN OF SHEER F**KING WILL

It has been 3 months since the incident at AGT, show was postponed indefinitely, so I got a job in high-class restaurant as a singer.

Also, I have been learning from Spidey, and results were far amazing as compared to mansion, we sometimes go on patrol together or just for a swing, he is a cool guy, around my age, a good hero and an idiot, I mean he comes out wearing costume from his house's window, and that's how I got to know his identity and just to make it fair I told him mine as well.

Now we are just sitting on the top of empire State building after busting a robbery.

Salazar: Hey, what happened, why do you look so down.

Peter: (sigh) Nothing just..... I have been having problems in my relationship with MJ, and doing patrols, while training with my team at SHIELD, ... it's just... that moment like these I can be myself, not spider man, not a hero, just Peter Parker.

...

Not gonna say anything??

Salazar: Well, what can I say, I'm not in a relationship, and despite being in a job, I'm mostly free.

Peter: I envy you.

Salazar: Everyone does.

Peter: *chuckles* .... Hey, how about I introduce you to my team, and also Fury wanted to add you in my team as a trainee.

Salazar: Yes to the first and no to the second.

Peter: Why are so guarded around Fury?

Salazar: Well, my mom said to not to trust bald pirates wearing an eye patch, especially the bald part.

Peter: As you wish, so let's go and introduce you to the guys... and girls.

Well, it's just one girl.

Salazar: Where to?

Peter: Follow me

And he jumped and started swinging away and I jumped form where I was and started falling, feeling wind rushing past me, brushing against me, and I... shot a web at a nearby building and swung with great force and shot towards the air.

While swinging,

Spiderman: Hey stop daydreaming and follow me.

Arachnid: What can I do, this rush of swinging never seems to get old.

Spiderman: Give it sone time, it will.

And after swinging through we were in front of SHIELD facility,

Arachnid: Are you sure Fury won't mind?

Spiderman: Well, I took permission already, he is trying to get you in team, just dodge those topics, pretend to listen to him, and everything will be fine.

Arachnid: Well if you say so....

Spiderman stood in front of the heavy metal door and..... it sounds

" SPIDERMAN ..... ACCESS GRANTED"

and then it scanned me " ARACHNID ACCESS DENIE.... OVERRIDE DIRECTOR FURY... ACCESS GRANTED"

and the large door opened with a woosh sound and inside we were greeted by a woman dressed in a standard SHIELD suit.

??? : Welcome, I'm Agent Maria Hill.

Nice to meet you Spiderman and Arachnid. Please follow me to the inside.

And we both followed her, and walked passed many labs and people, one guy was playing Galaga on his computer, and we entered a room and were greeted by a girl dressed in white spandex, a man wearing ugliest helmet to ever exist, a guy dressed in green jumpsuit and covering his eyes with yellow bandana sort of thing, and a huge body builder type dude dressed in yellow and wearing sun glasses.

We walked towards them, and Spiderman started the introductions.

Spiderman: Hello guys, meet Arachnid, my protege -

Arachnid: Not your protege

Spiderman: And Arachnid meet White Tiger, Buckethea-.. Nova, Ironfist and Powerman.

Arachnid: Nice to meet you.

Ironfist: Namaste *bows*

Arachnid: *awkwardly*Na..namaste

Buckethead: So, are you joining the team?

Arachnid: No, not right now, just here to observe your training and talk with the pirate.

Maria: If you want to observe, follow me to waiting roo-

*Alarm blares and red-light flashes*

White Tiger: Well, sorry to interrupt but we have to go for the mission.

Spiderman: You can come with us.

Everyone on team except Spiderman: Really?

Spiderman: I can vouch for him, I have been working with him for a while and he is strong and can definitely take care of himself.

Maria: *after receiving call, probably from Fury* Director Fury has said to take him.

White Tiger: Well, if he has given green light then.....

I follow them to a SHIELD jet and get seated, and we fly away.

Along the way we were briefed about the situation that Electro, Kraven, Doc Oc, Beetle, and Rhino were attacking one of Stark's factory, but Avengers were away so it came down to us to stop them.

We landed two blocks away.

Spiderman: Nova take on Beetle, Power man with Rhino, Tiger with Kraven, Arachnid stall Electro, and I will deal with Octavius.

Arachnid: I can deal with Electro you know.

Spiderman: While I know you are Immortal, but that doesn't mean we are, Electro is surrounded by Stark Tech and arc reactor so any missap and he can overload the reactor, so please listen.

Arachnid: *sighs* Fine

We went and when we saw our targets, we split up.

Kraven was the first to notice us.

Kraven: It seems, Spider has finally come, and he bought his friends.

Spiderman: Sorry to break it to you, but your party ends here.

Doc Oc: Oh I don't think so Spiderman.

Spiderman: Save it Doc, you always say those lines before we defeat you.

Nova just shouts while charging,

Nova: Less talking and more working.

And then all hell breaks loose, everyone takes on a villain, and starts fighting, and I locate Electro, which wasn't really hard, and started running towards him.

Electro: SO, I get the Spiderman's sidekick, well let's see if-

Arachnid: Zip it light bulb, also name's Arachnid.

And he get irritated by being interrupted and shoat me with his electricity, which I dodged gracefully.

We have been fighting for a while, and now I know why I was told to stall, it was because unlike his teammates, Electro, in the end is just sentient electricity, and you cannot punch electricity, so I started running my brain and recalled all that I learn from Forge, and came up with two possible ways to deal with Electro, first is to ground him and second is to short-circuit him.

Since, I couldn't find any ways to short-circuit him, I decided on a plan which would be suicidal if not outright stupid for others, but for me works the best due to my healing factor.

If he doesn't come to the ground I will just wrap him up in a conductor and drag him to ground, after confirming my plan of action, I started sticking metals, sheets and slabs lying around with my web.

And after a while, Electro despite having mental issues, discovered what I was doing, and was about to escape, but this is where the suicidal part comes. I ran upto him and latched onto him surrounded by metals, and started to drag him down, and as a struggle, he hit me with the biggest electric shock I had ever experienced and it hurt like a b*tch.

But I mustered up whatever willpower I could and held onto him, and just then I exploded into lighting.
