Taming The Beast

Chapter Five

A New Friend

Nevada Desert

Peter watched in horror as the helicopter crashed into the ground. He cursed as he continued to cut through the strong rope that enclosed around him. Finally with his spider strength, he was able to break free from the binds. He quickly ran to the wreckage and spotted the unconscious Alyanna laying in the sand. He sprinted towards her and leaned down to rip off her ironman helmet. She laid there with blood running down her nose but still breathing.

The sleek black suit had scratches and burned marks all over it  but Peter couldn't help but admire the technology

The sleek black suit had scratches and burned marks all over it  but Peter couldn't help but admire the technology. He patted Alyanna's face. "Hey lady, please wake up! Your friend is heading towards Las Vegas," he said concernedly.

The young girl felt her ears ringing before actually feeling anything else in her body. She could hear a muffled voice seemingly trying to get her attention. But the pain in her body just made her want to lay there and sleep. The voice suddenly became louder and before she knew it, Alyanna was jumping awake with a gasp.

"Urg, what happened?" She groaned as she sat up, her suit groaning with her.

"You uh, exploded in the helicopter. I don't think the other pilots survived," a voice said above her. Alyanna turned to see the boy in the spider costume from before.

She shook her head before standing to her feet. "No, there weren't anyone else up there. The thing self destructed the moment I touched anything." She holds her hand out for her helmet and Peter excitedly gave it to her.

"I guess the government is getting better at pursuing the Hulk then huh?" He speculates, his eyes roaming around the sky for anymore.

"Actually this wasn't marked. It didn't belong to any organization that I knew of. And Tony alerted the local authorities to not engage. My theory is that this drone belonged to someone who wanted the Hulk dead or to be provoked towards the city. And I'm not going to let that happen," She said with determination, her eyes narrowing at the path her soulmate had raged off to. Turning to Peter, she stuck out her hand. "I'm Black Viper."

Peter stared at the hand before seemingly snapping back to reality. "Uh hi! B-Black Viper, urg so cool, I mean I'm Spiderman."

Alyanna snorted. "Spiderman huh? You look more like a spider boy to me," she chuckles.

Peter blushed under his mask. "Yeah well I'm mature for my age."

Alyanna smiled, "I'm sure you are. Your intentions were in the right, however you may have made things worse."
