Who Am I?

***

Three days after the Oscorp incident, John was wandering around a local junkyard for scrap. he was making full use of SPY to hide his identity because he was trespassing.

The main reason he was here, was that after the racist baldy left his home(apartment). the next day he felt like he was being watched, thus he had kept his abilities and creations on the down low, doing his best to act like a generic teen.

Now he was looking for some parts to upgrade SPY and give it new features that he will and might need.

Doing one last checkup on all the parts he had, he spotted a juicy piece of tech inside a large pile of junk. giving it a quick tug, he easily got the part out of the pile without making noise... or so he thought...

*Crash* *bang* *crunch* *crash*

?? "Hey!! who's there!?! I swear to god when I find you I'll-" a worker heard the commotion and rushed to where the junk pile fell.

And in a second no one was there, just a fallen over pile and a small breeze.

Finding a decent hiding place, Johnathan dumped all his scrounged up parts on the ground and started dismantling SPY.

When he was done with taking it apart, he then begun putting it all together but with added parts. after he put the earpiece together (SPY), he still had plenty of parts leftover so he decided to make another earpiece giving all the features he might need in the future.

finishing up with the second earpiece, he put both of them on and activated them, The sci-fi - winged looking earpieces made a whirring noise and small cracks lit up with a golden light, then a holographic visor came to life in front of John's blue eyes covering them with a golden screen.

SPY was doing its job by Turning John's dark brown hair pure white with small streaks of gold and kept his face in an ever-changing loop.

No matter how much anyone or anything tried, they wouldn't be able to see through the illusion that was masking his head.

With a satisfied grin, John stood up and sped back towards his home, leaving behind a streak of Golden lighting with sparks of white.

When he got near the block where his home was, John started using the new features of SPY to locate any and all secret surveillance devices and if he found any he would blast them with a powerful EMP, crush them or melt their insides.

Thankfully there weren't any surveillance devises around the block, he only found them near and inside his apartment and dealt with them with them quickly.

that night he finally managed to get proper sleep.

A week after the Oscorp incident peter returned to school.

John and the boys were sitting at the cafeteria table looking at their phones, when-

Ned "Dude! Tony Stark is building the Stark Tower in NY!-"

Peter "Lemme see! lemme see!"

John "is that how its gonna look? it looks like trash."

Ned/Peter "dude, what's with your attitude-"

Peter "I think it looks cool-"

John "you'd think that because you are the biggest-"

Ned/John "Tony Stark Simp"

Peter "What the hell guys, I thought you were on my side. since when did Flash start giving Bullying lessons!?"

***

few hours later, The boys were leaving school when they overheard Police sirens.

Peter started to look fidgety whilst John acted like nothing happened, then gave his phone a quick look and spoke

John "sorry guys, coach asked me to come early today, so i have to go..."

Ned "yup, you go train Muscle-Man"

Peter "Godspeed, Gladiator! you wouldn't want to be late or he'll make you train till next week."

whilst giving a small chuckle at his friends' comments, John started making his way towards his gym.

Passing by few buildings, he quickly took out the new and improved SPY and equipped it.

Instantly a holographic screen covered his eyes and filled up with multiple maps and emergency calls.

John quickly rushed to where the sirens where coming from, the lightning sparking behind him as he ran up walls and onto the rooftops, everything around him was almost frozen in place when he stopped moving everything looked dull and bluish, when he moved around the colors got more and more vibrant.

But the color changes didn't bother him, his Speed Shield guarding him from any and all side-effects of going at such speeds.

The SPY was guiding him in in real time, -even if he was moving faster that any normal computer should be able to process-, because of his Technomancy being upgraded by his SpeedForce.

***

In a second or two he already arrived to the area where the sirens where coming from, what he saw was a bank being robbed that was also ... set on fire? what?

Giving the building a quick scan from a nearby rooftop, he found out that there were 13 people alive in the bank, with 4 of them being robbers. there was 2 people dead, and 1 injured.

Not giving them anymore time to kill more, John ran through one of the side windows, rushed all the civilians out of the building and went back in to deal with the robbers.

3 of the robbers where out in the lobby *guarding* the civilians that used to be there.

John quickly disarmed them and by quickly slowing down (he needs to slow down to hit them so he doesn't punch a hole through their heads) and hitting them in their lover jaws, he disabled them.

Moving around the bank to look for the last robber and the injured and dead people, John wound up in the bank vault thathad smoke coming out of it the robbers seemed to set all the money they couldn't carry on fire for... reasons that only psychopaths would understand and...

...

-and what he saw there, made him sick to his stomach.

The last robber was in the vault with 2 dead receptionists and one injured civilian woman, who was being ra*ed by the robber. the two dead receptionists' clothes were ripped up and probably when the robbers were done with them, killed and thrown into the flaming pile of money.

John was livid, he always hated people who abused others. He always hated how human's could abuse and use other humans without a care in the world. He hated how the police would arrest people like them and then release them after a slap on the wrist.

John was lost in his thought, his whole view on the world being drowned in red.

Without slowing down, John removed the Speed Shield off of his arm and walked up to the robber at super speed.

He shoved his fist straight through the robbers back and out his chest... and then threw him away like a used towel... they deserved nothing more.

He quickly got the two bodies and the injured woman out and ran away towards his gym without looking back.

*Punch* "fuck"

*Punch* *Punch* "Fuck!"

*Punch**Punch**Punch* "FUCK!"

*PunchPunchPunchbambambamratatatatatatatatata* "AAARGH!"

*Clunk* *Break* *Crash*

John was at the gym, beating all his frustrations out of his system and onto a poor punching bag, that gave out, it's chain broke and the punching bag went flying into the nearest wall.

John would have said that he was not of sane mind at that moment, that he saw red and didn't remember what happened next... but that would be a lie.

He knew what he did, why he did it... and he was ok with it... he knew that the bastard deserved it...

he was no goody two shoes, he was no saint, and he was no hero.

Only reason he went towards the bank, was to test his powers... he did want to be a hero... but real heroes don't kill with cold blood like he did.

But real heroes would have given people like the robber, a second chance.

John "Fuck you. I'm not a hero... if you want to save people and give monsters a second chance then be my guest...

But I'll make sure that no hero will need to get their hands dirty like I did. I'll make sure that there will be no more monsters for you heroes to give second chances too..."
