Chapter 138

Cap wished me well before riding off into. Nat then came up to me and looked at Felicia with a raised eyebrow, "Felicia Hardy, should have guessed."

I raised an eyebrow, "you mean you didn't know?"

"SHIELD doesn't have the time to know the identities of every single thief in the city."

I felt like kicking myself, I just put her in danger. If Nat knows then Fury will too, meaning HYDRA...fuck!

"Any chance you can keep this between just us?" I asked her in a pleading tone.

Nat smirked, "fine. But you owe me. Starting Monday I'm back as your handler, and Fury allowed me to finally go all out in teaching you, now that we know you can handle yourself."

I smirked, "bring it on."

Felicia and I spent the day in Queens, trying our best to ignore the people talking about the attack, but it was hard. After all that was the most important event that happened.

By the end of the day I said goodnight to her, leaving her home while I swung back to New York, fully intent on stealing some of that alien tech for myself.

There were plenty lying around all over the place. The government had just started cleaning up the South and East sides, the North was still filled with crap and abandoned. I grabbed what I could, guns, those glowing staffs that fired automatically and even pieces of armour.

I swung to the Baxter building and put them all in my lab. I had a security code that let me in, thank God, or else I would have to wait until Sue and the other's came back.

I did a couple of more runs, getting whatever I could. I even got a couple of the armour plates off of one of those flying snake monsters. This thing was strong enough to push back Tony's repulsor beams like it was nothing, definitely worth checking out.

But on my fifth outing to the wreckage I noticed other people there trying to steal some tuff. Now I understood how hypocritical it was of me for calling them thieves, but the way I saw it I fought these things giving me a right to spoils. So these guys are just plain thieves.

"Hey guys!" I called out landing on a light pole.

They all turned and immediately my spidey senses started blaring as I jumped away just in time to avoid them spraying me with a large amount of bullets.

"That's not nice!" I yell out as my arms pop out and firing out four streams of webbing, grabbing their guns before pulling back.

"It's the Spider! Run!" a soldier yelled.

"But we haven't gotten anything!" a man in a yellow hazmat suit called back.

"I don't care!"

They tried to run away but I quickly stopped them, grabbing them all and tieing them up in a tight little web space.

I walked up to them and smiled, "so, who are you guys supposed to be."

The soldiers growled and said nothing. The scientists...well, they looked piss scared. Time to use that fear.

"You know who I am don't you?" I lowered my voice modulation in my helmet to a few octaves lower, "you know what I can do. How easy it will be for me to rip you apart," I lowered one of my arms under the man's neck, "talk."

"W-we work for-" and suddenly he head exploded.

I jumped back blocking my head from the blood and gore, "what the fuck was that?!"

"We would rather die than talk!" a man hiding behind some debris called out, tossing a grenade at me. I kicked it away just as it exploded, but watched in horror as that man fired bullets into his friend's bodies.

"No!" I shot out a web line pulling his gun away from him before sending out a blast of electricity strong enough to stun him.

I look at the tied up people, they were all dead. The man who killed them were the only ones alive. I walked up to the man and searched his body for identification of any kind. I found nothing, except a tattoo of a skull.

It wasn't much, but the design reminded me of a group that Cap used to tangle with, HYDRA. They were finally moving out of the shadows. Of course they would, all this tech, why wouldn't they?

I looked around and sighed, I called Fury and told him the situation, he would be arriving soon. The city will take some time, but it will recover. Phase 1 is over, Phase 2 will soon begin. I hope I'm ready for what's to come.
