Manhattan, Sunday evening

Feb 24, 2008 21:11

Peter had taken Jessica to the Baxter Building. He thought that if she would be safe anywhere, it would be with the Fantastic freaking Four. With his clone safe, it was time for him to head in for what was probably going to be the fight of his life.

The only problem was that he had no clue where Osborn was.



Taking a chance on a long shot, Peter decided to check Osborn's apartment. After all, if he was going public (in a lying liar way), he didn't have any reason to hide, right? He knew Osborn wouldn't be there, but if he didn't at least take a peek, he would have kicked himself.

Spider-Man climbed in the window and took a look around. There was a recently used plate on a table. Then he heard a noise coming from over by the bathroom. "Uh oh," he said. As a figure in a robe and a towel came into view, he realized there was going to be a fight here and now. But... "Hey. You're not Osborn. You're Naked Electric Guy!"

"It's ELECTRO!" Electro yelled, powering up in such a way that the robe burned off. The room glowed blue as electricity flowed around and through Electro.

"Whatever," Spider-Man said, leaping around the room to dodge Electro's attacks. "I don't even want to know what part of his body that electricity is shooting out of!" Spider-Man kept dodging, taking some joy out of the fact that Osborn's stuff was getting exploded. "Hey, I was just here to see if Osborn wanted to subscribe to the Daily Bugle, no need to -- wagh!" Spider-Man just barely dodged the knives that flew out at him after that last strike in the kitchen.

"Eat me!" Electro yelled as he ran out the window on a bolt of electricity.

"You're running away?" Spider-Man yelled, leaping out the window to give chase.



The chase continued across Midtown Manhattan, Spider-Man barely keeping up. Every punch he threw, Electro managed to hit him back with a blast of electric energy that would have killed him if not for his powers.

After Spider-Man managed to tag Electro with a webbed punch, Electro returned the favor with a blast strong enough to throw Peter through a building. This bought Electro a few nervous moments. "Come on out here, you little brat! I want to finish my life without bumping into you ever--"

Unfortunately for him, his rant was interrupted by SHIELD agents in flying armor with big guns who decided to fire on him. The fight went up and back, energy guns and electric blasts being exchanged for a couple minutes before Spider-Man returned to the fight with a tire on the end of a webline to smack Electro in the face.

"Hey, I have a question," Spider-Man said as he started bouncing around the street, grabbing a downed powr line. "At a moment like this, when you kind of know the fight's pretty much over..." Electro couldn't keep up with Spider-Man's leaping and was slowly being tied up in an electrical wire. "... you ever get the urge to just, I don't know, give up?"

Electro tried stealing power from the line, but not only was it too much, he also got shot a bunch of times by the SHIELD agents.

It wasn't a big shock when he fell down.

"Well, that could have gone worse," Spider-Man said, looking at the downed naked guy. "I don't know how..."

"GET ON YOUR KNEES!" an agent yelled.

"Oh, come on," Spider-Man whined.

"YOU HAVE TILL THE COUNT OF THREE!"

"No."

"ONE!"

"NO!"

"TWO!"

"I want to talk to Nick Fury! Or the new person! Danvers! Dan--"

"TAKE HIM DOWN!"

Laser blasts rained down on Spider-Man. He did what he could to dodge, but all it took was one laser to go through his shoulder and he passed out.

"Target down, Captain Danvers," one of the agents said.

"Well all right," the agent who had been giving the orders said. "Okay, let's bring them back to the Triskelion. I need to have a talk with Mister Parker here."
