STEVE
After forcing his way through the door, Steve held his shield up. Bullets ricocheted, hitting the shooters in their appendages. When the firing stopped, Steve took them on with his hands.
The fools lay unconscious, on the ground, within moments.
Steve took the opportunity to take in his surroundings: a sad, musky diner with breathing bodies on the ground.
No boss though.
Steve made his way through the front and into the back. In the storage room, an ordinary man sat. He was smoking a blunt and writing in a log book. He looked up to see Steve's gloved fist in his face.
Another breathing body dropped.

PETER
Peter climbed down the basement stairs, making sure he was quiet and vigilant. His senses were alert.
A very serious looming feeling clouded him.
He ducked when he heard the trigger being pulled. He moved toward the attacker, a man in his twenties with a hand pistol.
Peter brought him to the ground and straddled him, punching him again and again. Soon enough, blood ruptured from the man's nose and mouth. His eyes swelled shut.
"You're splitting our family apart," the attacked hissed.
Peter stopped and stood, pulling off his mask.
"Louis," Peter breathed. "You're... Her brother." Louis's eyes were swollen, and his face was battered.
He spat blood and his body went limp.
A piercing, shattering pain hit Peter in the back of his right thigh. He fell to the ground, gripping the wound and trying to stifle blood loss. Didn't see that coming.
Mari stood in front of him.
"You sonofabitch!" she yelled. "He's my brother!"
"He tried to shoot me, Mari," he hissed.
"Would you do that to me, then?" She shook the gun. "Huh?"
"If I had the strength..." He meant it only enough to slow her down.
Peter watched her brown eyes turn dark. Something broke. She dropped the gun and sunk to his level. She did what he did to her brother.
She hit him.
Again. And again. And again.
Just as everything was going black, Peter felt her body suddenly tighten, then go limp on top of him.
Something terrible happened.
