Spider Gwen & The Recluse Assassin

V1: 『Dare the Devil』

"Failed!?" The fat man bellowed as he smashed his enlarged fist against the desktop of his office.

"Failed...?" The Arranger stood there across from Fisk, sweat forming on his temple. "I assure you! This wasn't supposed to happen! I will fix--"

"You have endangered my family!" Fisk pointed at the man fiercely, as if that very little finger could be used to kill him, which it most definitely could. "This is no longer your problem. The fixer will get this done... Isn't that right James?" His eyes moved to another man, in a black suit with a black tie.

He looked like the typical man in black, with dulled lifeless blue eyes and sunken lips.

James Wesley stood there in the doorway of the penthouse Office, strolling towards the men.

"Yes, Kingpin. I will be able to complete the task that your secretary has failed to do..." James was a tall scrawny man with short slick back dirty blonde hair that had a very distinct widows peak. He was in much better shape than Silkworth, if not a little younger.

"Sir! We cannot just send the fixer! If he doesn't make the Recluse disappear on the first attempt--" The arranger was cut short as Fisk stood from his desk, cracking his neck with intolerance.

"You have failed me once, Silkworth. Your continued presence here today puts you in danger... Take the day off," he glared sternly at the secretary before flickering his sight to the Fixer who nodded.

Letting out a sigh, and a shudder, the man in blue would take a step back from the desk and turn to take his leave.

"Can you kill him?" The Kingpin tapped his fingers on the desk impatiently as he sat back down, no longer needing to use intimidation to his favor.

"It will take considerable preparations. I have studied his dossier, very little allows us to know the full extent of his abilities. Your silent partner, hasn't shared his information..."

The Kingpin nodded, knowing that this Recluse Assassin could mean the destruction of all his life's work. Everything that he created, everything that he was going to do, wanted to do. He had to get rid of him for threatening his family's future!

"However we know his weakness..." He took out his phone, revealing the picture of Jack on the front lawn of the Stacy's house. "We can extor--"

"He's got her held up in his house," the Kingpin interrupted his right hand man, leaning back in his chair as he rolled his jaw in annoyance. "You won't be able to get your hands on her."

"Hm... Then perhaps the father who is just within our grasp? Use the officer to lure him out, a hostage situation, trade the Officer for himself." While this idea could work theoretically, it was likely Jack would eliminate everyone present in order to reacquire the old man.

"How would we call him out?"

"His phone was bugged by our friends in the FBI," the Fixer stated as he bobbed his head lightly in a nod, "It appears this 'Jack in the Box' of ours has made a call to warn the man in blue."

"...What?" The baldy raised a brow at this, not having expected the Recluse Assassin to be so brazen. Warn the Police? He just realized Jack had already intentionally endangered his Empire, this wasn't good.

It was all his fault anyway.

"Is there a partner in the car with the Captain?" Fisk asked as he kept an unenthused expression on his face, he didn't like that this was happening. It felt like a domino effect was on its way!

"Yes, but they're not under our payroll."

"Kill the partner, take the Captain hostage as you planned. Have the men hold him at the Docks," He'd order as he pulled his chair closer to the desk, he opened his laptop.
