-Third POV-
QUEENS, NEW YORK
SEPTEMBER 5, 2018
8:42 P.M. EST

In the docks right beside Queens where their imports come in, there were about three SUVs lined up in front of some cargo with heavily armed guards on the lookout. It was fairly dark with only light sources being the SUV's headlights, dim lights over the docks, and the light of the full moon. One of them was leaning up against the hood of the SUV in the middle, dressed in a black leather jacket, ripped blue jeans, and smoking a cigar while looking rather bored and getting impatient. Though he didn't wait long when more cars and two large trucks pulled up in front of him, the doors opened to reveal more heavily armed guards. The door of the car in front opened to reveal a man who was in charge of the new arrivals, wearing an expensive-looking dark purple suit. He looked at the guards in front of him and the cargo they are protecting and a small sinister smirked on his face as he saw the Oscorp logo on the side of it.

"So this is the shipment?" The man in charge asked the goon in front of him.

"Yup." He answered before getting up from the SUV and walked towards the cargo with the boss and a few guards following him. He unlocked the cargo door before opening it wide to give his boss a good look inside to reveal some pretty advanced-looking equipment inside. "Oscorp latest tech, I'm sure we could make a good penny once our guys scrap these things apart."

"Yeah, a lot of these parts should be worth something on the black market, maybe even have some of the boys make a little something... extra." The boss said with a smirk.

"Anything that gets us more money, that bitch is still demanding I pay the child support." The man grumbled out.

"How's that working out for you?" He asks, making the man briefly glare at him.

"The ex-wife is still a bitch, making me pay the house I bought for us, and won't let me see the kids, how do you think I'm doing?"

"That's good to hear." He said not really caring before turning to the rest of his goons. "Start loading this stud into the trucks! I want to get out of here as fast as possible, don't want spandex-wearing freaks in our tail!" He ordered walking back to his car as his goons began to unload the cargo and put them in the truck while guards patrolled the perimeter. Two guards carrying assault rifles walked through the docks keeping a lookout for any uninvited guest as the two talked with each other.

"This sucks! Can't believe I'm on this job right now, this totally ruined my night plans." The young guard complained while the older guard beside him growled in annoyance.

"You mean jack-off to 2D girls." The other guard said bluntly.

"Hey, I'll have you know that stuff is art and it takes a lot of work to make, and there's more than just the hot girls, they have some very interesting plots." The young man defended his questionable form of entertainment.

"Whatever you say." He said as the two continued to patrol the area in silence before the young guard decided to speak, much to the other annoyance who let out an aggravated sigh.

"Hey, did you see the reports that there's a new Spider-Man now, apparently he's been swinging around for a few months but it's not until a few weeks ago images of him began to pop up." The young crook said, trying to start up another conversation.

"You mean that copycat, yeah I saw the reports."

"You think he'll be coming here, you know, stop us?" He asked.

"We should be fine, we did nothing to warrant any attention to us so we should be good so now supers should be on us tonight. And if things go smoothly you'll go home to watch your cartoons." The man said.
