Spider-Man - Hunt For The Amulet
New Mission
(Peter's POV)
"Ned...Ned, you there buddy?"I say lightly patting my friend on the cheek.
"Sorry to disappoint to burst your bubble, kid, but, it wasn't a dream."Mr. Stark said from behind me. At that, Ned's eyes jolted opened as he stood up. You could tell his heart was probably beating faster from the way he was breathing.
"You're...You're..To..To..To," he said while breathing heavily.
"Breath, dude. You're hyperventilating," I say worriedly.
"It's ok, Peter. I get this a lot. It comes with the job."Mr. Stark said walking up to Ned holding out his hand.
"Tony Stark! This is awesome."Ned was literally jumping while he was shaking Mr. Stark's hand.
"Nice to meet you too, kid."
"Mr. Stark, Ned Leeds, Ned Leeds, Mr. Stark," I said introducing the two.
"Nice to meet you, Ned."
"You too, Mr. Stark," Ned replied.
"Tony."Mr. Stark's said multiple times that I can call him by his first name, but I've got too much respect for him to do that.
When they were down shaking hands, Mr. Stark turned to look at me and said," Peter I need to talk to you about something important... In private." After he said that, he headed towards my room, to which I followed. And seeing as how he already knew about my superhero business, I motioned for Ned to follow, to which he did.
***Peter's Room(Still Peter's POV )***
When the three of us walked in, Mr. Stark turned around and said," Um, Peter. Could you ask your friend to wait outside?"
"Um. Ned could you," I asked motioning for him to wait in the living room. Fortunately, he got the message and left the room. "Mr. Stark, If this is about my superhero business, Ned already knows," I said trying to reassure him.
"How'd that happen?" he asked.
"Oh, um, he was waiting in here for me when I climbed in through the window and was crawling on the ceiling," I explained.
"Oh okay. Well, Peter, turns out I need your help again," he said pulling out that same holographic phone he did last time. "There's a new mission I need you to go on."
"I get to wear the suit again?" I asked excitingly. Since I wasn't officially an Avenger, I couldn't keep the suit Mr. Stark made for me, so I had to use the one I made.
"Yep, time to jump back in the tights, kid. Anyway, here's the thing. I need you to go to Rio to recruit someone and bring them back here." A holographic picture of Rio De Janeiro popped up and in the top right corner, a picture of a middle-aged Latino.
"Who's that?"I asked pointing to the picture.
"Hector Ayala, Former Lieutenant Colonel of the Brazilian Armed Forces, currently a Sergeant of the Civil Police of Rio De Janeiro State."(A/N: In this story, Hector Ayala is played by David Norona.)
"So you want me to go to Brazil and recruit him?"I asked questioningly.
"Oh no, not him." he said pushing a button that wiped out the map and pulled up a picture of a beautiful young latina."I want you to recruit his daughter, Ava Ayala."
And right there I knew I couldn't do this."Oh no! I can't. I'm sorry Mr. Stark, but I can't do this."
"Why?"He asked," And if you say it's because you've got homework, I'll just laugh at that."
"No, it's not that. It's just that..."I'm kinda afraid to tell Mr. Stark about my fear...but, "It's the fact that she's a girl, that throws me off."
"What're you talking about?" he asks
"When it comes to crime-fighting, I'm good. But when it comes to girls, I'm not the best person to choose." I explained.
"Ah, but that's where the loophole is," He said with a knowing smile, "She's a crime-fighter too.
There's somewhat proof that she's taken up the mantle of the White Tiger."
Did I just hear him right? Did he just say the White Tiger? "I thought the White Tiger was just a myth."
"Nope." Mr. Stark said pulling up another picture with a play button on it, "This video was taken from a surveillance camera one night when she stopped a robbery." He pushed the transparent screen, which started a video.
***In the video Regular POV***
Three guys in black hoodies, each carrying one sack in each hand.
"This is it, boys. The last job we ever need to do." One guy said, who must've been the leader.
"More like the last job you're ever gonna do." A voice said off screen which sounded like a girl's.
"Who said that?" One of the other thugs asked with a scared voice. All the thugs were turning their heads in different directions when suddenly a slender figure, with white pajama pants and a white hoodie with a tiger symbol on it, dropped down behind them. The footage was blurry but you could see the girl's long hair poking out the sides of the hood. She also wore a white mask with yellow see-through eyes."I did." she said as she stood up slowly.
That made all three of those guys turn towards her quickly. "And who the hell are you?" The leader asked.
"I'm White Tiger, and I'm giving you a choice. Drop the money and get outta here without any pain, or wake up in the hospital with a broken jaw. Your choice. A or B." She said bravely.
After she said that, the leader dropped his bags and whipped out a knife."How about C? You get outta here before you get your pretty little self-hurt." he shipped
"Well I guess that's a B then." the girl said getting into a defensive stance.
At that, the leader thug lunged at the white-clad vigilante, to which she moved quickly to the right as she grabbed his arm and elbowed the middle of it, and punched the dude in the face, which had him flying about five feet away. The second thug ran at her and threw several punches at her, all of which she blocked perfectly. At one point he threw a kick at her stomach to which she flipped back and landed in all fours(both hands and both feet, like Black Panther in Cap 3.).
"Big mistake," she said jumping from that position, like a real tiger, pinning the thug on the ground and landing a punch in the face, knocking him out. She looked at the third thug, who was shaking. She got up and walked towards him. "Don't hurt me, please! I surrender!" He screamed as he got face down on the ground. When did, the flash of police lights appeared in the background.
She then pulled her hood up and disappeared into the darkness.
After watching that footage, Peter was in shock. This girl was in a whole other league than him in more ways than one. Not just in physical appearance, but also in fighting. He saw no fear in the way she fought, talked, or even when she took her stance. The complete opposite of Peter.
"So what do you say, kid?"Tony asked.
"Mr. Stark in case you haven't noticed, she's in another league than me." Peter replied in a frantic voice," What makes you think I qualify to go and recruit this girl?"
"Well, for one thing, she a superhero vigilante, just like you. Plus she's a teenager. That's really why you qualify because you're both teens who want to be heroes," Tony said matter-of-factly, "That's why I need you to do this for me."
(Peter's POV)
I'm still trying to wrap my head around all this. On the upside, Mr. Stark trusts me enough to confide in me to do this. But on the downside, this would be the hardest thing I've ever done... Maybe not as hard as when I got hit in the face by that big guy at the airport fight(GiAnt-Man), but still hard.
"So what do ya say, kid?" Mr. Stark asks again, "You up for this?"
[SIGH] After that long sigh, two little words came to my mind, "I'm in."
Notes
So what you guy think of this so far? Do you or no? Let me know.
