‘This is a first...’ Peter casually thought as he dodged the horizontal pillars of fire, which destroyed the walls behind him, drilling fiery holes, which spread up the walls and filled the area with black smoke.
Peter has never had a run-in with a hostile meta-human before.
Yeah, he had to beat Wolverine and his brother a few times, but that doesn’t really count.
Even his run-in with Magneto and the Brotherhood of Mutants was solved through communication, which lead to a fruitful partnership.
Even after Peter found out meta-humans were in this world, they haven’t popped up on his radar ever since.
‘Maybe Charles and Erik have been handling it?’ Peter thought as he rushed forward, whilst still dodging all sorts of fire attacks.
That made the most sense, as the cooperation between Erik and Charles is likely a huge nightmare for all villainous Meta-humans and anti-meta-human factions as well.
After all, you have Charles who is constantly recruiting young meta-human students to his school, making it hard for anyone to snatch up any super-powered children.
Then you have Erik, who literally made it his life’s mission to hunt down anyone who would kidnap or hurt his people.
Truthfully, it’s hard out there for an evildoer, especially in the United States, where the Avenger's power is centralized.
Out of the 20 bases that held meta-humans inside, the large majority of them were outside of the United States of America, showing just how hard it is to operate there.
Even Hydra, who has access to all of the resources and personnel of Shield, didn’t seem to have many meta-human agents.
‘This is the first I’ve seen...’ Peter thought as he appeared behind the fiery meta and clocked him in the back of the head. “Huh?”
Peter grunted in shock as he watched his fist phase through the blazing man's head, as if he were a drunkard, trying to fight a fire with his fists.
“That’s an interesting ability.” Peter muttered as he watched his attacker's head morph back to normal once he pulled his hand back.
“Haha!” The burning meta-human laughed like a victorious villain. “You may be strong Spider-Man, but since you can’t touch me, you’ll burn soon enough. They always do...”
“Love the evil monologue, but I have like 30 more Shield bases to raid, so let’s get the show on the road, shall we?” Peter said as he strolled over to the nearby fire alarm and pulled it.
Instantly, the sound of a warning bell filled the building, as countless small sprinklers on the ceiling started showering out water, which covered everything.
“Aaagghhh?!” The fiery meta-human screamed in horrendous pain as the water poured all over his body.
“Water beats fire.” Peter commented as he watched the man, who was just cackling like a dark lord a moment ago, crumble to the ground and huddle into a ball. “Pokémon logic always prevails.”
Once the guy was thoroughly soaked and weakened, Peter dumped him in a cell back at the Tower via a portal and flipped the fire alarm back up, turning off the sprinklers.
Searching the rest of the building, Peter found a group of captured meta-humans, similar to the group from his meeting with X-23, so he moved them to Xavier's school as well.
After he dropped them off, Peter received a call from Fury’s team.
“Hey, we could use some help here!” Clint exclaimed over the radio, followed by what sounded like an explosion.
“On the way.” Peter answered as he stepped through a portal to find Fury, Clint, Natasha, Daredevil, Loki, and Jessica being manhandled by a giant meta-human, who seemed to be made out of a copper-colored metal. “Seriously, you guys can’t beat some metal guy?”
Taking a closer look at the giant's facial expressions, Peter assumed that he was most likely brainwashed.
His eyes were dull and even in a stressful situation like this, he didn’t seem the least bit worried or surprised by their arrival.
‘Either this guy has some serious emotional issues, or he’s a puppet like Bucky...’ Just as Peter thought this, the copper meta-human looked towards him and shot a bright beam of yellow light from his eyes, though Peter simply sidestepped it as he studied the ability with interest.
As the beams passed him, Peter watched as they bore two tiny holes in the wall, which continued unimpeded all the way to his barrier before coming to a halt.
“He can do that too!” Clint called out as he nocked an arrow and let it loose.
With the aim of a legendary marksman, the arrow flew across the room and struck the laser-shooting meta-human right in the forehead, blowing up on impact.
Although the arrow and the explosion did absolutely no damage to the assailant, the shockwave managed to knock him off of his feet, stopping him from continuing the deadly laser attack.
“He’s also invulnerable to every attack we throw at him.” Natasha explains as Jessica rushes forward and kicks his downed form, sending the meta-human flying into the wall at breakneck speed.
Anyone would think that the fight was over or at least close to its end, but that wasn’t the case at all.
As the dust cleared, the copper Hydra agent could be seen standing beside a broken wall, as if nothing happened whatsoever.
He was still in pristine condition without even looking the slightest bit tired or hurt.
“Okay, I can see why this would be a bit challenging for you guys, but it really shouldn’t be that hard...” Peter says as he gets a glare from Fury’s entire team.
“We’re not all monsters like you!” Jessica yelled in frustration as she dodged another laser beam.
“Well, how about I give you a hint?” Peter says as he had no intention of stepping in unless they really needed it. “In Pokémon metal types are weak to fire.”
Although they’re probably the weakest team of them all, due to Loki, Clint, Natasha, and Daredevil, who have little to no superpowers, that doesn’t mean they couldn’t win on their own.
They just have to use their brains a bit.
“What the hell does a children’s game have to do with this!” Jessica yelled as she glared in Peter's direction.
“Do you want another hint?” Peter asks as he walks to the side and leans against a wall, enjoying the annoyed glares of his fellow Avengers. “If Pokémon isn’t your forte, then how about this? Metal conducts electricity.”
“I’ll handle it! Keep him busy.” Loki said as he ran out of the room.
Although Loki wasn’t an actual member of the Avengers, he acts as Jessica’s assistant and uses that as an excuse to tag along throughout every mission.
Of course, Peter allows it as he hopes to one day recruit the former villain, though time would tell whether he truly changes enough to become a hero or not.
After watching the group fight and distract the copper meta-human for a while, Peter watched as Loki came running in with a bundle of long-cut wires.
“Attach the ends the of these to your arrows and aim where they’ll stick.” Loki orders Clint as he starts plugging the wires into a nearby outlet.
“He’s solid metal... where will they stick?” Clint asked in confusion.
“I don’t know. Figure it out!” Loki yelled back.
“Fine...” Clint muttered as he attached the wires and took aim.
Waiting for the perfect shot, Clint fired as soon as Jessica managed to knock the guy off of his feet once again.
Just as the copper meta-human hit the ground, an arrow grazed his side and pierced into the ground, though what followed was nothing but excruciatingly painful.
“Aaaaaahhh!” The silent metal man screamed as the electrically charged arrow remained in constant contact with his body, sending a powerful current through him.
Though that wasn’t the end.
Clint continued to fire and each new arrow introduced more electricity to the man's metal body, which was currently spasming in the ground uncontrollably.
“See, I said you could do it.” Peter said happily as a portal opened up below the shaking meta-human, depositing him in his own cell in the Avengers tower.
“You could have just done that from the beginning...” Jessica says with a huff.
“Yes, but If I do everything for you, then what’s the purpose of having you around?” Peter says with a shrug.
Jessica merely rolled her eyes at him as she stomped her foot in frustration, cracking the ground with relative ease.
“Remind me not to make her angry...” Clint whispers to Loki, who nodded in agreement as he felt her anger before and would much rather stay on Jessica’s good side.
