Peter's Protector

{17} comfort

Once seeing me, Peter let out a sigh of relief. His lenses scan over me quickly, "Are you okay? You're not hurt or anything?"

"No," I reassure him, "no I'm okay."

"Good," he breathes out.

His once soft gaze quickly hardened as he turned to look at my captures.

"Ah, you must be the infamous Spider-Man," the lead scientist spoke. "What a pleasure it is to meet you."

Peter stepped forward, "If you have hurt her at all I will—"

"Spidey, this is my fight, it's okay," I say softly.

I calmly step ahead of him, closer to the people who haunted me my entire life. "You caused enough pain on enough people already, and I'll never let you harm him. Leave him out of this."

"Oh, but the fun was just getting started, besides, he'd make a great addition to our cause."

"No!" I yelled, sending several shards closer to him, inches from his neck.

"(Y/n)," Peter said cautiously, unsure of what I was about to do.

At this the scientist said nothing, simply just reaching into his pocket and pulling out a small remote with one button. Several scientists stepped forward to stop him, but they were held back.

"Did you really think we'd create you without having a plan in order in case you ever defied us?" he said menacingly. Before I could react, he pressed the button. A small beep was all I heard before I felt it. A hot flash in my neck that was unbearable. I stumbled and fell forwards onto my hands and knees, crying out in pain. My shards fell and crashed onto the floor, each fading away as I struggled more and more to breathe.

"Stop it!" Peter yelled, quickly running to me. He turned me over and placed my head into his lap. He gently pushed my hair out of my face and attempted to comfort me.

I weakly took hold of his arm, not knowing what to do. I gasped once more and then I stopped, seeing nothing but black as my mind and consciousness faded away.

Peter's pov:

A fight broke out amongst the scientists, but I could care less.

"(Y/n)...please be okay, please be okay!" I panicked, quickly checking for a pulse. To my relief, I could still feel her beautiful heart beating beneath me. "Karen, what happened to her?"

"She's unconscious, there's a small disk of some sort in her neck, and it shocked her from what I understand," Karen explained.

Gently placing (Y/n)'s head down, I turned to the others. They nearly killed her.

My breath quickened as my emotions took over.

"You cannot kill her. I did not spend fifteen years of my life dedicated to this experiment for you to throw it all away!" a woman yelled.

"Is that all you see her as?" I said, my voice dripping with rage.

I stepped forward, before swinging forward and kicking several men and knocking the lead scientist down. I grab the small remote and pocket it, before using my webs to keep everyone down on the cold, cement floor.

I grab the collar of the lead scientist and pull him up, "give me one good reason I should hold back right now...tell me why I should hold back my punches and not let you get what you deserve."

"Underoos, that's enough."

I turn and see Mr. Stark behind me, landing with a thud. "I'll handle it from here, just get her out of the building."
