Spider-Man x Michelle Jones

Chapter 14

Michelle smirked when she saw the text from Peter asking her to come to the Avengers Compound as soon as possible. This was also part of her plan, she would comfort Peter as he went through this whole ordeal with Black Cat and eventually it would allow her to gain his complete trust and maybe his affections.

So that is exactly how she found herself standing outside the Avengers Compound alongside Ned Leeds. "So Peter tell you anything?" asked Ned in his annoying rapid fire way. "As I said on our way here and for the last ten minutes no he did not tell me anything so please shut the hell up Leeds," said Michelle with a roll of her eyes.

The door to the Avengers Compound opened and May Parker walked out with a smile on her face, "Hello you two it has been a very long time since I have seen you both." She pulled the two teenagers into a warm hug before breaking away, "Peter is waiting for you in his room. Harold will take you there I need to deal with two tiny Avengers."

May headed back towards the building with the two teenagers following closely, everything seemed to be much more interesting for them both, this was the first time they had ever set foot in the Avengers Compound (well legally that is). 

"Hey honey," said a voice as they entered. They all look to see Harold "Happy" Hogan walking towards them with a smile on his face, he kisses May and wraps an arm around her shoulder, "You two are the kids I met in London right?" Ned and Michelle nodded in response to Happy's question. He simply smiles and breaks away from May with a brief kiss to the cheek, "You two follow me; and no touching anything."

They follow Happy through the labyrinth of a building until they are both standing outside a door. "This is Spider-Man's room. He is waiting for you inside." They both nod and enter the room and were surprised to see Peter with his old fabric Spider-Man mask on along with Scott Lang sitting playing Mario Kart. As soon as the door opened Peter paused the game and jumped to his feet, "Wow I thought it would take you guys way longer to get here," said Peter as the lenses on his classic Spider-Man mask widened a little.

"Yeah we got the whole urgent message thing and thought that you were in serious trouble," said Michelle as she threw herself onto his bed and picked up the controller continuing the game, "So what's up loser?" Peter chuckled at her and sat down next to Scott, "As you guys know Black Cat has my identity. The problem is that until now she hasn't shown much interest in exploiting it...until now. She got in contact with me to basically say she wanted me to be like her man-servant or something and that she wouldn't tell anyone my secret if I did what she said. I honestly want your advice."

"Sounds like a tough situation but I don't know what you should do," said Ned as he sat down on the floor. "Well I already suggested that he does what she says. I have two of the finest Avengers looking for her or any trace of her, once we have something tangible we can act on it," says Scott as he threw a banana peel in the game.

"I agree with Ant-dude," says Michelle as she threw a blue shell at Scott making him let out a huff of disappointment as she passed him by and won the race. "Do what she wants until these Avenger losers can get rid of her," says Michelle with a shrug. "Thanks guys," says Peter with a smile as he got up and hugged both Ned and Michelle, however when he was hugging Michelle she noticed that he held on a good bit longer before letting go.

"I'll go to my lab and work on somethings, feel free to hang out here if you want," offered Peter. "Nah I'm good I need to get home," says Ned as he gets up and gets ready to leave. "I think I'll go too I need to get some shit done before I have to go to bed," says Michelle as she gets off Peter's bed and heads to the door, "Gotta ask though why the mask?"

"The other Avengers have been trying to figure out my identity, I am so not ready for that," explained Peter with an awkward rub to the back of his neck. "Well I will see you later loser," says Michelle as she gave him a brief hug before grabbing Ned and going home.

"Now I have the Avengers looking for me," muttered Michelle as she made some upgrades to her suit, "This was fun at the start but now it's becoming a mess that I need to clean up." She picked up her mask and put it on turning her hair a brilliant white color and changing her eyes to a emerald green color as the HUD appeared.

"Okay FABLE are you online?" Michelle asked to the room at large. After a few moments the icons on her HUD lit up, "Yes Cat I am online and fully operational," answered a female automated voice through her mask. 

"Yes my AI works!" cheered Michelle as she jumped up in delight. "Incoming from hallway," said FABLE quietly. "MICHELLE WHAT ARE YOU YELLING ABOUT?" shouted her mother as she approached her daughters door. Michelle yanked off her mask and grabbed her suit and threw them under her bed. She quickly grabbed her tools and put them under her pillow; Michelle jumped onto the bed and grabbed a book opening it to a random page, just in time as her mother opened the door and looked in on her daughter.

"Michelle what are you yelling about I could hear you from the living room?" she asked with eyebrows of disappointment. "Sorry Mom I got to a really good chapter in my book and got over excited. Sorry I'll keep it down Mom."

"Okay sweetheart," says her mother with a warm smile as she closes the door gently behind her as she leaves. As soon as she is gone Michelle grabs her suit from beneath her bed and her mask. "Okay time to test out the Spider's ability to follow orders," says Michelle as she takes off her clothes and pulls on her catsuit. Michelle grabs her mask and puts it on allowing her mask to change her hair and eye color.

"FABLE send a message to the Spider," says Michelle as she jumps out her window and off into the New York skyline disappearing into the night.

Black Cat: Spider meet me on top of Warehouse 18 down my the docks. Come alone.

Spider-Man: Why should I trust you?

Black Cat: Because I know who you are Spider. 

Black Cat: Now hurry up and get here. I am lonely 💋

Spider-Man: Fine be right there

Peter threw the phone down onto his bed angrily as he stomped over and grabbed his Iron-Spider Mark 2 watch and put it on his wrist. He tapped on the face plate and the nano-tech spilled from the watch forming the suit around his body and within seconds he was encased in the Mark 2 Iron-Spider armor ready to see the Cat. "I just hope she doesn't ask me to do anything awful," muttered Peter as he jumped out of the Avengers Compound window and swung off in the direction of the docks.
