The Silent Slasher

Chapter 7: Back in the Band

As soon as the trio makes it into the cab, Dopinder steps on the gas without being asked.

"So what do you say? Are you back in the band?" Peter smirks looking at Matt.

"No" Matt denies.

"What band?" Dopinder wonders.

"The Team Red band!" Wade hollers just for Matt to kick his seat because he's sitting right behind him. "Ow! Relax! He doesn't tell!"

"It's true, nobody knows I'm Deadpool's driver except Bandhu after I killed him" Dopinder confesses.

"Y-you killed someone?" Peter stutters. "But you're so...nice?"

"Hush kiddie, you're ruining his dreams of becoming a mercenary" Wade shushes. "You're doing an amazing job D-Piddy."

"Ok well it's getting late and your curfew is coming up" Matt tells Peter even though he can't see the actual time on his phone but it's true, it's almost three.

"WHAT?!" Peter screams.

"Oh yeesh, yeah" Wade grimaces as he checks the time. "Auntie is going to get mad."

Peter pulls out his phone to see it's 2:50 which gives him ten minutes to get home which is definitely not enough time especially because he's so far. He hears Wade rattle off his address but he can care less. If Wade trusts him, he does too especially since his senses don't go off around him.

"Step on it Dopinder!" Peter demands just as Dopinder steps on the gas, hard. "Oh mannn, Aunt May is going to be so worried!"

"Trust me, she already is" Wade snorts.

"What do you mean by that?" Peter questions.

"I sent her a photo because she LOVES them but...let's just say...she wasn't a huge fan of this one" Wade admits.

"He took a photo of the mob while throwing up the peace sign" Matt tattles.

"MATTHEW!!" Wade gasps.

"WADE!!" Peter shouts at the same time.

"I usually send her stuff like that and she's fine!" Wade claims.

"She almost has a heart attack on each one" Matt continues to tattle. "The only one she likes is the pictures of you not fighting."

"She's like PISSED" Wade shouts the word.

"Why would you send it to her?! You know she would worry! Tell her I'm ok!" Peter tells him once he notices his phone has just died, how perfect. 

"I did! I even sent her the picture of Mattie holding the guy to the wall to show that you're safe!" Wade points out.

"Oh my god" Peter mutters.

"Umm I don't think we're making it in time" Dopinder speaks up.

"Why?" Peter questions.

"Cops" Matt hisses just as the blinding red and blue lights hits the car.

"What the hell" Peter whispers while he quickly puts his mask on and throws his clothes into his bag to reveal the suit underneath.

"So cool" Dopinder smiles.

"I don't think you should go out there" Matt claims holding his hand in front of Peter so he doesn't run out.

"Well I'm going anyways, this is my neighborhood" Peter reminds him.

Matt removes his hand away from Peter just as he runs out of the car with his backpack left behind.

Peter runs up to the scene while taking note of an ambulance. The news crews and photographers quickly shows up not a moment later and he sees it...a woman lying on the floor dismembered. EMTs are quickly making their way towards her but it's too late for her, he knows that.
