Ultra Responsibility (My Hero Academia X Spider-Man Reader)

Issue 37 - Uneasy Alliance

The last of the Christmas decorations were hung all around the town square. In just a few short hours, the lights would be turned on, and the start of the holiday season would begin.

A small crowd had gathered to witness the special occasion as a little boy held onto his mother's hand excited. "Mum, Mum, when is Hawks coming on?"

"Not long now, sweetie. He'll be here any moment."

Now more excited to meet his hero, the boy kept looking around, hoping to get the first glimpse. That was when he saw it. Flying in the distance was a figure with giant wings. Ecstatic, the boy began pushing through the crowd in glee. This, however, soon faded as he realised. It wasn't Hawks.

Crashing through the streets, a man with giant mechanical wings roared through, tearing through the Christmas lights. Turning on the spot, he revved up a device firing off blindly, burning through buildings with a giant laser. Screams echoed on as I quickly darted in between the clumps of rubble raring towards him. Avoiding his desperate attacks, I landed on the wings. "Give it up, Toomes; I've got you right where I want you now."

Gritting his teeth, the Vulture spun around, throwing me off him. Then, clutching me with his metal claws, he flew high in the sky with a crazed look. "They won't take me back; no, I won't let them take me back!"

Trying to break free, my breathing became spaced out and heavier. Using all my strength, I tore his invention apart, breaking free. Falling back, I webbed him, yanking the man towards me. The Vulture was left unbalanced but still in the sky. Using this moment, he aimed his laser weapon at me, cackling. "I'll leave you in pieces for the birds, Spider-Man."

Gritting my teeth, I quickly shot my next web right into the barrel of his weapon, causing it to jam.

Panicked, he kept trying to fire it. "No, no! Work damn it!"

His eyes widened as the weapon exploded into a large array causing the bird of prey to fall from the sky. Latching onto him, I began hammering away, destroying his wings, landing blow after blow as we kept free falling. Finally, near hitting the ground, I spun him around, pulling his head back as we smashed into the ground leaving a small hole. The Vulture lay defeated, gagging and coughing up what looked to be blood. But the colour was much darker. Standing up, I looked at it for a moment before webbing the villain down and stepping out. Police had turned up as Hawks flew down in front of me. I scoffed, patting myself down. "Don't worry, bird brain, I got your biggest fan."

"You shouldn't have." Hawks said sarcastically, looking around and whistling. "You know, for such a C-grade Villain, you sure allowed collateral damage. You really should stop toying with the enemy when people's lives are at risk."

"No harm done, right?" I smirked at this, strolling past the pro only for him to put his hand on my shoulder, stopping me. "Take your hand off me."

Moving away, I glared at the pro rolling my eyes beneath my mask. "You know, the closer I look, I really question how you're the number three hero, just saying."

"And a Merry Christmas to you too, Spider-Man." Hawks shouts back, looking at the Vulture before inspecting his own wings. "He even copied my visor..."

Norman scorned the TV, switching it off after seeing the news report of the Vulture's detainment thanks to Spider-Man. Then, turning around, he returned to his secret lab to get back to work. "Doctor Ohnn."

The Doctor came running, nodding. "Y-yes, sir. I take it you just saw the news. We're already down one member. Should I arrange for his breakout?"

"No. That fool disobeyed my instructions to lay low until the plan was set in motion. If he cannot put up a decent fight against Spider-Man or listen to orders, we have no use for him."
