Something More

The Challenge...

The morning after Y/N's performance, he walked out into the kitchen and saw everyone was up, Nat walked up to him and knelt down to eye level with him before pulling him in for a hug. Y/N smiled and returned the hug before Natasha walked away humming the Piano Man, Y/N looked to the other Avengers who all smiled.

"What? You were pretty good at singing." Bruce said as Y/N sighed and muttered 'fuck' to himself as he walked to the fridge and got himself some food out for breakfast.

"Shocking scenes last night as a masked criminal took to the internet last night to claim responsibility for the bombing a few days ago and taunted both the police and The Vigilante  for being as of now unable to find him." The news journalist said as Y/N looked up from his breakfast and watched the replay of the video that the criminal posted.

'Hello New York, you can call me...the Templar. I am the one responsible for the bombing the other night, and I am the one who has managed to avoid the foolish attempts to find me by the Police and The Vigilante, who I would like to extend an invitation to.' The masked criminal said as the video ended and cut to the anchor on the news.

"Shocking footage there from just moments before the bombing in the early hours of this morning. Police have just now confirmed that this was a bombing and not a gas leak as some rumours have suggested. We have a live statement from Police Captain Yuriko Watanabe."

"This morning after people saw that video of this madman, I've been hearing some talk about if we should start hunting the Vigilante and if we should hand him over to this nut job, and the answer is, no. We're all scared, and we should be, but we've been happy to let the Vigilante clean up our streets for months now, we don't have the right to throw one of our own to the wolves like I've heard some people suggesting. I know that The Vigilante is out there, working tirelessly to hunt down the bastard responsible for these atrocities and to bring him in so that they can face the justice they have coming, I promise you all, it is coming to this person, Justice never sleeps, and Neither do we or the Vigilante, we will hunt this fucking psycho down and  bring him in, I guarantee you that."  Yuri said on the TV to the press as Y/N finished his meal.

"I'm heading out for the day." Y/N said as he headed to his room, hearing Steve grumble in slight protest, something he couldn't give a fuck about anymore, Steve had no say in the matter of Y/N being a Vigilante. As he suited up Y/N put in his coms piece and used it to call Yuri.

"Watanabe."

"What do we know about this recent attack?" Y/N said bluntly as he jumped out of the window and used his grapple to slow his descent before using the zipline to get to a rooftop.

"Same kind of explosive as last time, I thought you only operate at night."

"This isn't patrol, I'm getting anything I can from the scene and then taking it for analysis." Y/N said as Yuri just hummed over the phone in acknowledgement. "Anything else from the scene?"

"Yeah, he's left you another message, one second, Stacy, hand me the note!" Yuri said as Y/N ran across the rooftops. "come to this address alone. But there's no address."

"I'm on my way, hopefully I've got something that can get us a lead on this psycho. Good speech by the way."

"Please, not the first time and it won't be the last time that I have to make a speech like that." Yuri said as she stepped away from the crime scene telling officers that she went for a cigarette.

Y/N landed behind her, she turned and saw him standing there.

"Here, don't say I never give you anything." Yuri said as she handed him the letter.

"I'll take it away for analysis." Y/N said as Yuri nodded.

"Why is this person obsessed with you? I mean everything they're doing seems like they're doing this to get to you or to toy with you." Yuri said as Y/N at her and then the letter.

"I don't know, but I'm going to find out." Y/N said as Yuri sighed and nodded.

"Fine, just, go. Feds are up my ass already trying to get involved on this case. Them and the DODC." Yuri said as Y/N turned to her.

"DODC?"

"Yeah, they've got some new guy in charge, Everett Ross, works with the CIA, real asshole, looks like Bilbo Baggins or something." Yuri said as Y/N took in the fact and went to leave. "Hey...be careful, this case seems like someone's got you in their sights and I wouldn't put it past the feds or DODC to try and get you out of the equation as well, they're slippery fuckers."

"Noted." Y/N said calmly as he headed back to the tower, climbing into his room window and changing into his civilian clothes before heading to his separate Lab that Tony made for him and Peter. As Y/N put the letter on the table, JARVIS began going through checking it for anything while Y/N sat and thought things over, he was sat there thinking about who this person could be under the mask, so caught up in thought that he failed to notice when Natasha came to check on him before she left knowing he was in deep thought.

"Sir, I've found an address. Terminal Warehouse, 261 11th Ave." JARVIS said as Y/N nodded and looked out the window to see night had fallen, he suited up and left to face the Templar, Y/N took all of his equipment with him, he felt like he was going to need it...
