Chapter X

It was now set up..Killgrave had Jess against a helpless hostage but tormented Jess mentally and made her think the hostage was her 'Dark' self. The purple man grinned at his victims.. "Now...fight to the death..."





Jess held her wounds.. "You..You don't have to do this.." She muttered to her dark self. She was now having a mental battle while the hostage attacked her. "You don't have to be what you were created to be, you can pave your own Pat-" She was hit in the mouth and she staggered backwards, tripping and falling down. The dark Jess grabbed her by the hair and repeatedly beat her in the face, Jess grabbed her dark counterparts hand and tried to fight her off but couldn't.


Jess crawled away to safety and the halutination came closer. "You and me, we can't co exist..." Jess stood up and threw a punch at the dark version of her past self. The hostage fell down in reality and purple man growled, he kicked the hostage aside and then made the mind torture even more intense, grabbing Jess by the head and making her fight mentally. Jess was in an all black room with a duplicate of herself, this time it was the present her with HAND ninja garb and a katana. The duplicate had it's forehead against Jess's. The two traded blows and blocked as well as countered one another, the duplicate stabbed Jess in the leg, but Jess broke the katana and then pinned her duplicate to the ground. When jess had her in a clinch hold the duplicate smirked and whispered to Jess.. "You will never defeat me..I am your hate. I am you..You can't beat me.." Jess was thrown and the duplicate stood with her foot on Jess's neck "We fight the same..we are the same! why do you hide me? why? " Jess held her heel and strained to get her off, replying while groaning "You're nothing...Just a reflection of my heart..and my conflict..." The dark duplicate growled and grabbed Jess by the collar, holding her up and throwing her into a wall with a grunt. She picked up Jess by her collar again and held her up, speaking in a huskier voice "THEY MADE US! THEY MOCK US! YOU ARE A COPY!!! CAN'T YOU JUST ACCEPT THAT YOU CANT MAKE A WEAPON INTO A PERSON?!?! YOU REMEMBER???? REMEMBER HOW THEY SHUNNED US IN THAT LAB??? HOW YOU FELT WHEN PETER DIED BUT YOU DIDNT SAVE HIM? THE GUILT? IT WAS SO UNBEARABLE..TO LOOK AT OURSELVES! .....They made us suffer so much pain..they created us and we never asked for that.." She dropped Jess and Jess fell to her knees, her dark duplicate stood over her and held her shoulders, whispering into her ear


Then suddenly, Jess's willpower and connection to Peter Parker kicked in, and Peter appeared, shoving the dark duplicate away, he helped Jessica up, Jess rubbed her eyes and was shocked to see Peter, but also shocked she was now on the rooftop just like she previously was..Peter was talking to her.



Peter softly smiled.. "Jessica, Look at me." She looked up at Peter and he wiped the tears off her cheeks with his sleeve again just like last time and let him talk.. "Remember what Ben told you? I agree with him, Jessica I'm Proud of you. You are a hero, whether you want that title or not..You aren't a freak of science or my duplicate or an accident..You were created by unusual circumstances but.With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility. I don't know what that means to you but, I'm sure it means something, we both love Uncle Ben. I can't save you from yourself but..you can. You have to believe, but until you start believing in yourself truly? You won't have a real life.. and that dark version is always gonna be there.."


Jessica bit her lip and Peter nodded at her. The hate, the anger, the dark duplicate stood behind Jess. "Pretty speech.." The duplicate scoffed "What good do the lectures on life do us though? We still doubted ourselves, we still joined the hand..and don't forget, we still let peter get taken away from us.."


Peter interrupted. "That's not true, she passed on everything she knew to Miles, she fought and started the ultimates when no one else would, she refused to kill anyone when she was in the HAND...You forget that Jess isn't anything like you, you may look alike but...She's not full of hate, you're just a cancer that needs to go.." Dark Jess struck down Peter and then grabbed Jess by the arm. Jess shoved the dark duplicate off and shook her head "He's right...I'm not the hate. I'm something else, people care about me...Kitty, Miles, the team...My brothers...." She remembered all her adventures with Miles and the ultimates, Peter, Gwen, Spider-Verse... "I'm not alone..I'm not hated..I'm not a weapon..I don't need you anymore.." Jess walked away from her Hate but the duplicate began to cry.. Jess stopped and sighed... "Stop hating and start accepting me..I'm not going anywhere..." Jess smiled at her duplicate and rested her hands on her hips.


The duplicate ran towards Jess and tried to punch her, but Jess just hugged her dark self tightly...finally accepting herself. "It's okay now.." The dark Jess began to fade into the original, and they became one. The hat in her eyes was gone...



Killgrave let go off Jessica and got punched across the room, she overpowered him with her willpower and stood up..walking over to killgrave. Killgrave pulled out a knife and tried to slash her throat, she blocked and then took the knife, punching the purple man in the gut and making him cough up blood. Killgrave's eyes widened and he held onto her in shock.."No..You have to die..no one can resist me..."



Jess glared and pushed him off of her "Well I just did..." She smirked at him. "Oops....My bad." She punched him once in the chest and then hit him in the head, backing him into a wall and knocking him out with a kick....


Sirens were heard and Law Enforcement had arrived, the hostages ran free and Jessica left the beaten purple man hanging by his toes with a web around his face, though it did have breathing holes. She took a pen from his suit jacket and drew the symbol of a Black widow on his forehead



The cop held it and examined it. "Another spider crawling around new york eh?"





Jessica sat on the top of her apartment building with her mask and jacket off, she was pretty banged up but she could handle herself. She breathed heavily and looked up at the night sky...smiling a little.. "I'm back.." She mouthed to herself
