((After a long battle, Peter had encountered Venom but soon he realized it was just his reflection... Entrapped in a difficult situation either get rid of the symbiont while he can or hasten back to where the screams are coming...))
The symbiont called his senses back to reality "Peter look, People are in danger"
"Where?" his spider sense tingled him rapidly. Peter back flipped amazingly to dodge Shocker's waves but he landed in front of Rhino, who charged at him soon his adversary landed, like he was waiting for that specific moment to jump on him, but freakishly, Peter's body moved more flexibly, as he dived more and rolled down beneath Rhino's wide grab.
o was about to punch him too but Peter rolled backward on the asphalt avoiding the hit.
"Wow, the ironical due. Hey Rhino since when?"
"Huh!!!" Rhino shouted in anger at the perfectly safe masked man before him.
"Since when, you were going out with shocker!" Provoking him, he shot his webs to blind Rhino, but Shocker was ready to evade this dilemma again, he shot his shock waves at the flying webs to destroy them in mid-air. Spiderman stood fascinated by the move but then Rhino was there at it again punching and rushing and horning like a crazy real bull trying to even grab a limb of him, but the web swinger easily dodged all his punches while staying close to his feet.
"Hehe, I'm here" The vigilante smirked tapping on his shoulder in ease. "Aarrrgghhh" Rhino shouted furiously and gathered his fists and slammed them as hard as he could on the ground making a crater in the square, wide enough for a truck to fall in.
shocker jumped away and people were injured and dust was everywhere. When the dust resided down, Rhino shouted "Where are you, insect?"
Above you"
Rhino looked up to see a figure penetrating the dust in a great speed and kicked him hard in the face, Shocker who saw the situation could easily grasp the end of this scenario. He couldn't win over the spider by himself.
So, when Spiderman turned his big wide eyes at him, Shocker war reminded by their last encounter... he ran away while randomly shooting his shock waves at the building around. "Kyyyaahh" More people screamed.
Spiderman shot some of his webs at the falling debris while he went down under a big debris nearby, holding it up with all his might to allow people behind to find a way to escape.
But fate chose to play another trick at him, among the fallen men, he saw someone in that place "Damn it. Why is aunt May here? Yeah, that's the mall" He shouted still holding the debris above them "Hey au_ Lady, are you okay?" Peter couldn't finish his sentence, the ceiling began to collapse and debris began falling when Rhino who regained his conscious rammed into the mall.
"No, we're getting crushed" Anna screamed.
Peter abandoned his burden and threw his body covering the two women from the ruins.
Gun fires started and ambulances with firefighting and law enforcements arrived. NYPD sirens filled the street.
Shocker called "shit, let's get out of here Rhino"
The mutant monster roared in anger "No, I still have to crush the spider"
"Later... we have to go now" Shocker urged with an edge in his voice
Rhino snorted slamming his fist together "Are you afraid of the police tiny Shocker?"
Shocker walked to him & grabbed his horn down aggressively "Boss's Orders"
"Tssk" Rhino & Shocker escaped through the mayhem.
A police perimeter was set up and the premises was surrounded in yellow tapes, people were being treated outside and others simply stopped to take photos of the chaos.
Cap. Stacy came out of his car and shouted on the radio "Where is the rescue team?"
"On the way, sir" an answer came timidly
"Make them hurry__"
Suddenly, shouts erupted from Spiderman who stood up from the ruins carrying a large debris... he threw it aside and roared to the sky "AARRGGHHH"
He swung away immediately leaving the scene, while waving "paramedics"
Cap. Stacy ran with the others to see the men walking out with an elder women on stretch bed transporting her to the ambulance nearby.
"What's with him?" Off. DeWolff sighed looking at the web swinger disappearing in a hurry.
Cap. Stacy stood beside a fainted woman checking her pulse "Thank god, she is still alive" then he looked to the sky with a simple frown and concerned look "What's going on with you kid?"
Several miles away from the mall, in another building, Rhino punched the wall with Spiderman's phot on it Next time"
Shocker ignored him and took off his gloves fixing the wires in them, but Rhino slammed the table in front of him "Couldn't we wait 2 or 3 mins. Until I could only crush the insect"
Shocker calmly picked up his gloves looking at his reflection in mirror feeling his bruised arms, he said "We'll but not now, we still have to follow the plan to get rid of him forever"
"Tssk, when are they coming...?" Rhino stated but then he stopped, they both stopped and shared a quick stare at them as they both felt that eerie chill in the air. The lamp broke and darkness fell on the place.
They stuck together back to back but then a strange quiet voice called from above "I feel sorry for whoever you are waiting for"
"Huh, who said that?" Rhino shouted.
"Their visit will be on waste..."
"Spiderman!!!!"
....
Later D. Octopus came in, startled by the darkness. He shone light to find Shocker long gone, knocked out cold with multiple series injuries and Rhino was in bad shape buried under large amounts of Debris.
He gritted his teeth in anger and shouted "Who the heck did this?"
Rhino in a weak moan coughed "HE WAS A MONSTER"
"Who?"
"SPIDERMAN"
"How?"
"HE HUNTED US, I... I... NOOOOOOO" The man kept screaming having nightmares of those big white eyes devouring him whole while being trapped in the darkness.
In front of the Hospital, Peter leapt from above to stand perfectly safe by the side of the sleeping security guard who startled as he sat the boy falling from above but he blamed his dreams for his mistakes. The boy walked through the gates in trembling long strides, quietly gritting his teeth.
There weren't many people as it was already 4.00 am.
After inquiring, he walked into a room to see his aunt barely breathing with devices on her bed, 'how feeble she is?' he thought but out of blue a voice called blamably "Where have you been young man?" D. Bromwell Said soon he stepped in seeing Peter standing four feet away only gazing at his aunt.
Soullessly asked "I... Aunt may. How is she?" still watching her quietly.
"She had another heart attack. She needs rest, a slight sudden movement can lead to amplifications we don't need"
The doctor went in to check up on her solutions.
"Thankfully, Spiderman was there"
"Ah...Spiderman, Heh!? If that fool really was that much... He could have defeated those assholes easily, he could have helped her and protected everyone. But ..." Peter clenched his fists hard and turned his eyes away. He bare no more, he left the room instantly.
D. Bromwell followed him outside the room "Where are you going now, have some responsibility. Take care of her"
Peter ignored him and took the stairs up to the roof.
Cap. Stacy who just went off the elevator, walked into the corridor saw the young man' furious blood shot eyes and his profoundly jaw lines, as a beast seething with anger.
Stacy followed the hot blooded man up to the roof where the boy stood by the edge and slowly his black shirt came to live and began growing bigger covering his body like slime.
The captain shouted "watch out. It's... VENO__" He ran to save him but he stopped in his track, fearfully met by those wide threatening eyes... Stacy couldn't help but to notice that despaired look attached to Peter's face even behind his mask. He couldn't find the words he should have said to comfort him; because he somehow knew it was his fault for being late. The boy jumped of the roof in a reckless parkour. Stacy walked to the edge leisurely "What's going with you, kid?"
Back at their basement,
"D. Octopus., What should we do?" Vulture asked looking up to the man up front.
He looked at the men heavily bruised and injured "Let's lay low for a while. We need our full power"
"Must change our Base. That bug must be swinging around!!" Vulture said.
"That bastard, does he think of hunting us?" Kraven shouted in vanity. Octopus leant at one of his tentacles as he was listening to it and issued with a devilish grin arced on his face "Whatever the case, our hunt begins in the morning. Call the others. It's time"
