Chapter 10

I'd like to say I took that news well. Although, how could I? Peter basically just explained that these people wanted to kidnap me. These are the people who have been after me since I was little. And I panic easily.

I went back to observing the group, Peter at my side.

  The woman intrigued me. It was as if she wasn't even attempting to hide herself. That was the strangest thing about this scene. It was vividly clear that all of this was bad, but the fact that she was standing out intentionally was the weirdest. And probably the worst.

"Who is that woman?" I asked, tilting my head over so I could see Peter. He'd put the mask on, fulling turning him into Spider-Man.

He was silent.

"Peter?" I mumbled, resulting in him shaking his head.

"Okay. I'm going to go down there as soon as Tony gets the Avengers out here. Clint is going to take you far away from here and make sure you're safe. Got it?" He spoke as I shook my head.

"Peter, what's going on? What are you not telling me?" I whispered-yelled in a demanding tone of voice. He only sighed, looking down in defeat.

"I'm already telling you a lot more than you're supposed to know," He insisted as I laughed and shook my head.

"This is my life, Peter. I never asked the Avengers to meddle around in it," I stated sternly as he pulled the mask back off. He glared at me sternly with his amber eyes before extending one of his arms so his hand could caress my cheek. His hands were covered in his suit, making his touch really soft.

"I know. But, believe me, we need to..." He breathed out as I slowly nodded. As much as I didn't want to admit it, he was right. This group, The Awaken, has been hunting my mother and I my whole life.

"What do they want from me, Peter...?" I whispered in a sad tone of voice. He closed his eyes and sighed.

"I'll take it from here, Mr. Parker," A voice boomed over the rooftop, making the two of us jump. And Peter instinctively removed his hand from my skin. The two of us looked over at the owner of the voice, seeing my mother standing there.

"N-Natasha...?" Peter asked, his entire face red with embarrassment. My mom nodded, resulting in Peter pulling his mask back on and swinging up to a small air duct in the area, going back to watching the group of individuals who were conversing in the yard, a few of them attempting to get in through windows. The woman was looking at the roof. Focusing her attention on us.

"I owe you an explanation," She stated as I rolled my eyes.

"A little past due, don't you think?" I asked as she let out a small laugh. Her attention began slipping into looking at the scenery on the roof. Then her bright eyes found Peter. She immediately looked back to me.

"I see you were trying to get Mr. Parker to answer to you with some mental manipulation, huh?" She asked with a slightly wider smile. I shook my head at her.

"It's called desperation. But I can see how you'd get the two confused. After all, you were created to have no emotions..." I grumbled under my breath, creating thick tension.

I didn't have the guts to look back at my mother. I knew I would either cry or profusely apologize. Or worse, I'd do both. Instead, I placed my attention on the woman who was shrouded in all black. She held herself in a manner that showed she was most likely the leader, or someone of power.

Peter watched from afar, all of his expressions shielded by his mask. His attention kept shifting between the shadow-like people out in the yard and my mom and I.
