Spider-Man and The Esper

106. Fight With The Avengers

"So, what's the plan again?" Spider-man asked as he and Daredevil perched on the roof of a warehouse

"Really do you not know?" Daredevil sighed trying to remember why he asked for Spider-man's help when he had to deal with his childish antics.

"I do, I just wanted to make sure you do," Spider-man stated, giving a mock salute as he flipped off the building and went in through an open window. Daredevil shook his head and got ready himself. the ship Matt thought was carrying drugs and weapons had been waiting at the docks for an hour he could sense Spider-man waiting in the top floor window of the warehouse he could tell from this far away that Spidey was getting restless then people came out of the shadows to unload the ship's cargo it was more than drugs and weapons seem there was also human trafficking involved when Daredevil gathered evidence to make sure these men would go away for a long time he gave Spidey the signal to attack. Spider-man quickly freed the captives, mostly young girls dressed in rags, it always made him angry seeing how low criminals Stupp to for a quick paycheck forgetting human lives were at risk.

With speed, Daredevil wished he possessed he heard Spider-man take out his half of the bad guys webbing them up jumping from one side of the Wearhouse to the other. All in all, this was a clean takedown until one of the idiot goons decided to try and get rid of them by blowing up the building.

The fire spread quickly, the captives screamed and tried to find cover. The bad guys escaped their bonds, some ran, and some took advantage of the fire to try and kill them. Spider-man swung through the burning wreckage trying to save the idiots and the captives.

"Go get out of here!" Spider-man yelled as the beam separated them. Daredevil knew better than to stand there and argue they had people to save. He also knew Spider-man was resourceful enough he would find a way out.

"Did everyone get out okay?" Daredevil asked as Spider-man landed on the roof the fire still going strong behind him

"Yeah. Are you okay?" Spider-man asked sounding worried he imagined the lenses in Spider-man's mask looking him up and down for injures

"I am fine, how about you?"

"Good." He said Daredevil couldn't smell blood or sense any pain in Spider-man's voice but something in the teen's tone put him on edge. Something was bothering Michael all day and the kid was 18. Matt was about to voice his concern but the sound of sirens was getting closer. "Well, this didn't end as it was supposed to. But that would be my cue to leave" Spider-man sighed

"We did good today, all the hostages are free and the bad guys are going to jail. Besides the fire at the end, it was a pretty good night." Normally it wasn't Daredevil to stay positive that was Spider-man's job but he felt the need to brighten the kid's mood.

"Yeah, it was but the nights are not over yet. See you around Red" Spider-man said waving and running away from him Daredevil listened as Spider-man shot a web and with the grace of an Olympic athlete flipped into the night and was gone.

"Be safe." Daredevil sighed wondering if he should have pressed harder Spider-man had been avoiding him for the last two months. This was his chance to get the kid to talk to him but he was never the best when it came to heart-to-heart. Matt just hoped that whatever Spider-man was dealing with didn't get him killed.

After leaving Daredevil he swung to Manhattan to do his regular patrol, stopping a few muggings, two attempted rape, and one car crash. To him, the night was still young so he decided to take a break on the side of a water tower.

He didn't know what was going on but he was sure Matt had noticed something was wrong with him. He didn't know why but he was distracted and a little on edge. He had been feeling off for the better part of the afternoon and well into the night. His spider-sense wasn't going off so he didn't think he was in danger but for some reason, it still put him on edge. Had the city been too quiet from crime than usual was someone plotting his death, probably he had a lot of enemies that would love to see him kick the bucket, so there was nothing new there. So, what was putting him so on edge?
