Wade's POV:

"What do you mean you lost him?" Honestly were these people incapable of everything?

You didn't exactly help the first time did you.

You ran

No, I didn't. I was taking Peter to safety. That is not running away.

"Kid you try catching that guy."

"Okay."

I close my eyes before I can think this through. Suddenly I am back at the warehouse, in a room filled with unconscious bodies. Wow so not only can they not catch a guy, they also can't take prisoners. Do I have to do everything myself?

I walk over the a guy who is starting to stir. "Hey buddy, mind if I take you. Nope, awesome." I pick the guy up and sling him over my shoulder. Next thing I know I am back in the tower.

Ha! These guys should see how stupid they look.

I throw the guy to the ground and stare menicingly down at him. "Where is your boss?" He doesn't answer, so I try a different tactic.

With one hand around his throat I pick the guy up and slam him against the wall. I can feel the shocked faces around me, but elect to ignore them.

"Again. Where is you boss?"

"Broo- Brooklyn. He ran off to Brooklyn. Please don't kill me."

I roll my eyes at his pathetic-ness and drop him to the floor. I turn to look at Clint, who's mouth is practically on the floor.

"See that wasn't so hard was it. Now we know where he is. Deal with this guy how you want." I skip out the room, leaving the dumbfounded adults to squabble amoungst themselves.

Peter's door is wide open, so I cough and walk in. He is layed on his bed reading a book. His brow is furrowed, concentrating hard on the words that are no doubt swimming around the page. I hate that he still struggles with things. Especially something he was so passionate about.

He is so concentrated he didn't hear me announce myself. So to make my presence known I launch onto the bed, landing inches away from his face.

Peter helps and almost attached to the wall out of fright.

"Sorry babe." I say through laughs. "What you reading?" He glanced down at the book and shrugs.

"I thought the cover looked nice so I picked it up. I have absolutely no idea what it is though!"

"Spidey, this is a text book! I barely know what this is about." Peter pouts, folding his arms.

"Well I'm sorry I wanted to try and learn some shit and get back to how I used to be." Okay I wasn't expecting that. Shit I always end up ruining the moment.

I slide closer to Peter and hug him tightly, his head resting on my shoulder. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you. You know I love you right?" He nods, humming into my shoulder which sends electric tingles down my spine.

I tilt his head up and kiss him slowly, trying to convey my apology through it. "I love you too." He whispers when we break apart.

I gaze into his hazel pools adoringly, my hand resting on his cheek. I am about to lean on when Clint comes barging into the room.

"We are about to- oh! Oh! I am interrupting."

"No!" I say hurriedly pulling away.

"Yes!" Peter says exasperated, at the same time as me.

Clint stifles a chuckle and motions us to follow him. He leads us back to the living room where I dumped the criminal, who is currently tide upside down from the ceiling.

"Tell the boy what you told us." Steve says sternly.

"Taskmaster is after you. He took the spider kid to get to you."

"Why the hell is that dickhead after me. I have done nothing to-"

Shit.

Shit shit shit shit shit.

I can feel the blood drain out of my face. A surge of nausea washes over me, my body threatening to pass out.

"Wade. Wade are you alright." Peter is tugging my hand but I barely feel it. My knees buckle. The floor is rippling like waves on the ocean. All the walls are closing in on me.

"Dad" I manage before my head hits the floor. Then I am out.
