G944od: My version of Peter is mainly based on the 616 comics. However I am taking inspiration from other sources like Spectacular, Web of Shadows, Ultimate Comics, etc.
Maximum Rhapsody: Well I do plan for them to call someone for help, but you'll have to read to find out who that is.
Outside the Shie Hassaikai Base,
Peter Parker and Matt Murduck walked away from the base of their enemy, planning their next move.
"I don't know about you, but my Spider-Sense is telling me that we can't do this by ourselves," said Peter.
"Agreed. We're going to need a team," said Matt, "Do you know anyone who can help us."
"Don't worry, I've got a ton of connections, even with some pros!" Peter bragged.
"Sure you do," Matt said sarcastically
"Hmph, I'll show you, I'll call them right now," Peter pulled out his phone, "Actually maybe we should go somewhere more private."
Atop a building in Downtown Tokyo,
"C'mon, C'mon, pick up," Spider-Man spoke to his phone, while Daredevil watched.
"You've reached the Headquarters of the Fantastic Four," said the female sounding robotic voice.
"Reed Richards please."
"For Analytic Data Systems, Press 1, for the RD Production Project Press 2..."
Spider-Man sighed, "How about 4, for Fantastic Four," Peter pressed the button.
*Beep
"For Reed Richards Press 1"
"Yes, finally!"
*Beep
"I'm sorry, is away on important hero work in Latveria," said the bot, "Please leave a message. Mailbox full, please call back at a later time."
Peter hung up the phone, "Fine, I'll try Stark."
"You have reached Stark Tower. Unfortunately Stark Tower is closed due to a Villian Attack, please call back-"
Peter hung up again, "Okay, how about Wolverine. He likes me."
"This is Logan, I'm not here right now so leave a message. Unless your Parker or Wade, then you can #$% off or I'll stick my claws up your-!"
Spider-Man hung up before he could finish, "Man, such anger. Well there goes all my connections."
"Don't worry, I've got some people I know" said Daredevil.
"So the Devil has more friends than me, great," Peter shrugged.
"Maybe if you didn't joke so much, they'd take you seriously," Daredevil suggested, "Anyways follow me, I'll take you to them."
Daredevil fired his grappling hook from his billy club swinging off with Spider-Man right on his trail.
Naruhata, Tokyo,
Spider-Man and Daredevil landed on the rooftop of an abandoned apartment building. There were clothes being hanged to dry and some training equipment. There was also a small add-on shack on the roof.
'Man what a run-down place, I can only imagine what kind of people would live here,' Spidey thought to himself.
Daredevil walked over to the entrance of the shack, opening the door.
"Hey who ate the last yogurt!" said a girl with pink hair, blue eyes and wearing round glasses.
"Sorry, I worked up an appetite after today's patroal" said an older looking man with a scar on his face, "Hey Koichi, go buy some more and restock on beer while you're out."
"Why do I always have to be the one who buys food?," complained a skinny man with brown hair, "You're the one who always eats all the food."
"...Ahem" coughed Daredevil.
The three, who were sitting on the ground around a small table, turned their head to face Spider-Man and Daredevil.
"Heya!" Spidey waved friendly.
"We need your help," said Daredevil, "Can we come inside?"
"Of course , you're always welcome," said the girl, "Too bad, we can't give you any food, because someone ate it all."
"Hmph" the old man grunted.
The two vigilantes entered the cramped shack, with Spider-Man opting to hang from the ceiling.
"Do you do that all the time?" asked the skinny man, "Isn't the blood rushing to your head?"
"Nope, I've got radioactive spider blood," said Spider-Man
"...Okay then..." said the skinny man.
"Spider-Man," Daredevil gestured to the skinny man, "This is Koichi Haimawari or the Crawler. This girl is Kazuho Haneyama also known as Pop Step."
"You mean the famous singer?" Spidey inquired.
"Yup that's me!" Kazuho winked, "You a fan? Want an autograph?!"
"Nah, I'm good," Spider-Man rubbed the back of his head, "This suit doesn't have pockets anyways..."
"...Okay, it's fine. I see how it is..." Kazuho pouted.
"Getting back on track," said Daredevil, "Finally we have Iwao Oguro or Knuckleduster."
The man simply grunted in acknowledgement.
"They're vigilantes like us," Daredevil explained, "I first meet them while stopping a quirk-enhancing drug deal."
"Nice to meet you all," Spider-Man waved, "As you probably know from the news, I'm Spider-Man. Like Daredevil said before, we need your help"
"This is about the girl, isn't it..." said Knuckleduster, "The one you supposedly kidnapped..."
"Bingo," said Spider-Man, "Funny, this will be the third time I'll have to explain this story."
Spider-Man explained what had happened so far. The vigilante group's face grew more and more serious and disgusted with every word.
"Daredevil and I verified Fisk's information," Spider-Man explained, "So now we need your help to save Eri and May Parker."
"That's horrible, I can't believe someone could be that cruel!" said Pop Step.
Knuckleduster clenched his fist, "That bastard will pay for this."
The Crawler nodded, "Yeah, there's no way we're not helping! You can count on us."
"Thank you, we really appreciate it," said Daredevil.
"No problem," the Crawler smiled, "What kind of heroes would we be if we didn't help a child in need. Actually this is perfect, my new All-Might hoodie came in the mail a few days ago and I've been waiting for a reason to wear it. It's really special since it's meant to commemorate his retirement and-"
"Ignore him, he's a fanboy," said Pop Step, "What's your plan?"
"Even with the five of us we're still massively outnumbered, so we can't go in guns blazing. That would just attract the attention of the Pros and Police anyways," Spider-Man explained.
"So we'll have to rely on stealth instead," said Daredevil.
"Right, makes sense," said Crawler.
"Our top priority is to save and Eri," Daredevil stated, "However we'll also be looking to find any incriminating evidence to lock up the Chie Hassaikai for good."
"If I can reach their computers, I should be able to hack into them," said Spider-Man, "That'll hopefully give us everything we need. So you guys don't have to worry about that stuff."
"Good, I prefer cracking skulls anyways," said Knuckleduster.
"Do we really need all that evidence though?" asked Crawler, "Shouldn't 's and Eri's testimonies be enough evidence to lock up Overhaul?"
"Weren't you paying attention?" Pop Step sighed, "They already tried that in the beginning and almost got arrested."
"Ah right, I forgot..." Crawler rubbed the back of his head.
"Heh, dummy," Pop Step grinned.
"If we're going to do this, then we'll need to know the layout of the base," Knuckleduster, "Otherwise, it's just a shot in the dark."
"I've already used my radar sense to plot out the layout of the underground base," Daredevil assured, "And I should be able to acquire the blueprints for the above ground portion of the base, since it's technically a legal business."
"If we pull this off right, we'll be saving two damsels in distress and take down a whole yakuza group in one fell swoop," said Spider-Man.
"So when are we doing this? Tonight?" asked Crawler.
"Believe me, I'd love to, but It's already late, and I'm running low on web fluid," said Spider-Man, "So tomorrow night, as soon as it gets dark"
"Well if that's everything, I'll go get the equipment I'll need for the job," Knuckleduster got up and walked out the door.
"Oh! Make sure you get some more yogurt on the way out!" yelled Pop Step.
"Thanks again for helping me out. I really appreciate it," Spider-Man dropped down from the ceiling.
"No problem, it's always a pleasure to work with another vigilante," Koichi stood up.
"Heh, y'know people also refer to me as Wall-Crawler," Spider-Man jokes.
"Really? Well from one crawler to another" Koichi and Spider-Man shook hands.
"Let's show that wannabe plague doctor what Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends can do!," Spider-Man cheered.
"Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends, really…?" Pop Step depanned.
"What? It's a great name! It's very memorable," said Spider-Man.
"Probably not for the reasons you think," said Pop Step.
"Whatever you say," Spider-Man shrugged, "I haven't heard any better ideas for a team name."
"Hmm, how about 'Team Vigilantes?'" Crawler suggested.
"Sounds a little plain, but I like it," said Pop Step.
"Fine..." Spider-Man groaned, "'Team Vigilantes' it is."
"We'll meet back here early tomorrow to narrow down the specifics of the plan," Daredevil explained, "In the meantime, make any preparations you need."
"Will do," said Koichi.
With that Spider-Man and Daredevil took their leave. They both needed to prepare for the tough battle ahead of them.
Parker Residence, Midnight,
Peter, now back into his normal clothes, walked through his destroyed living room. The police had long since left, so he was all alone. Glass and debris littered the room, with most of the furniture either destroyed or toppled over. Many of their personal belongings were destroyed, including several of their family pictures. Peter bent down and picked up one of the broken frames from the ground. It was a family portrait of himself, Aunt May and Uncle Ben taken not too long before Ben's death.
"Don't worry Ben, I'll get May back, I promise…." Peter said quietly.
"Peter? Peter is that you?!" a voice asked from behind.
Peter turned around to see Mary Jane Watson, his neighbor's niece and one of his few friends, standing in front of him. The redhead had a worried expression on her face.
"MJ? What are you-" Peter was cut off by MJ embarrassing him in a hug.
"Your home was attacked by villains. Me and Aunt Anna were so worried about you." Mary Jane explained, letting go of Peter.
"I-I'm sorry. I was with the police. I didn't get back home until now..." Peter lied.
"Really?" MJ's face showed that she hadn't really bought that answer, "Because when I talked to the police, they said they had no idea where you were."
"Well you know how cops are," Peter rubbed the back of his head, "Probably got distracted by donuts and completely forgot that I was there..."
"..." MJ looked unamused.
"I...went to Spider-Man," Peter sighed, "I asked him to save my Aunt."
"Spider-Man?!" exclaimed MJ, "Did he agree to help?"
Peter nodded solemnly, putting down the picture frame on a counter.
"You doing okay tiger?" asked MJ.
"I'm scared, MJ..." Peter explained, "I-I can't lose another..."
"It's going to be alright Peter," MJ rubbed his back gently, "You have to have faith in Spider-Man, he's definitely going to save her."
"How can you be sure?" Peter questioned, "Even Pros can't save everyone. Even if he gets help, there's no guarantee..."
"Well he hasn't let me down yet," Mary Jane smiled, "He saved my life. So I believe that Spider-Man will save your Aunt."
"Yeah...yeah, me too" Peter agreed.
"Good. Now you want to stay at my Aunt's place tonight?" asked MJ.
"It's okay, I've already got other plans," said Peter, "Thanks for the offer though."
"Oh, alright then I'll see you later. Night Tiger," MJ waved goodbye.
"Night MJ," Peter waved back, heading into his basement to make the supplies he would need for tomorrow's mission.
'Please stay safe out there Peter...' MJ thought to herself as she walked back to her Aunt's house.
All five vigilantes spend the night preparing for the upcoming battle.
Peter Parker worked away in his basement lab, luckily his lab equipment was unharmed by the villain attack. He whipped up a brand new batch of web fluid, built new spider tracers, and tuned up his web shooters. He couldn't afford to lose Overhaul or have his web shooters run out or get jammed in the middle of a fight..
"Aunt May, Eri please just wait a little longer. Then I'll get you out of there as fast as possible."
Matthew Murdock landed blow after blow against a punching bag at the abandoned Fogswell's Gym. He needed to make sure he was completely ready to fight against Overhaul's men, he couldn't afford to be sloppy.
"I'll stop him, for good this time..."
Koichi Haimawari, practiced using his shooty-go-blam-blam on a stacked pile of cans. This would be the toughest fight he would have in a while, and he needed to make sure his precision and accuracy were perfect.
"I won't let and Eri down!"
Meanwhile Kazuho Haneyama was examining their medical supplies in her first aid kit. She had to be sure everything was in order in case anyone was injured.
"No one's getting hurt on my watch!"
On the other hand Iwao Oguru was taking care of the weapons and explosives. He examined each weapon carefully. Not having a quirk means he needed to rely on these weapons to stand a chance. And with these weapons he would do much more than just stand a chance.
"Those bastards won't know what hit them!"
Eri layed down on the cold bed, sobbing quietly to herself. She was back in her old bed, wearing her old clothes. It was like the past few days with Peter had been nothing more than a dream. The young girl rubbed her freshly inflicted wounds. She didn't want to be here, she hated it here, she wanted to go back to Parker's home. Eri clenched her eyes closed tight.
"P-Please Spider-Man! Please save me!"
Koichi's Apartment, The Next Day
After settling the specifics of the plan, the five illegal heroes were finally ready to begin their mission. Spider-Man admired the team, giving an affirmative nod, before jumping off the roof and web swinging towards Overhaul's base. The whole team followed behind him. Daredevil and Knuckle Duster used their grappling hooks, Pop Step jumped from rooftop to rooftop, and Crawler zoomed through the streets on all fours. The moved with grace and determination like a true team
"Alright Team Vigilantes, Let's Go For It!" Spider-Man cheered as he swung into the distance.
Peter Parker/Spider-Man:
Quirk(?): Spider
Peter was bitten by a radioactive spider, allowing him to do whatever a spider can! He has the proportional strength of a spider, can cling to any surface, and is extremely agile. His powers also give him a 'Spider-Sense' which can warn him about danger before it happens. He's also equipped with two web-shooters which fire super strong webbing.
Matt Murdock/Daredevil:
Quirk(?): Super Senses
Matt's senses were heightened due to exposure to a radioactive isotope as a child. This left him blinded but gave him superhuman senses along with a 'Radar Sense'. The Radar Sense gives Matt a full 360 degrees 3D view of the world around him. This along with his super-senses allows Matt to technically 'see' better than any other human alive. Matt is equipped with a multi-purpose billy club.
Koichi Haimawari/Crawler:
Quirk: Slide and Glide
Kokichi's quirk allows him to glide over surfaces by emitting a repulsive force from his hands and feet. This allows him to stick to and move up walls. He can also concentrate his quirk to fire a repulsive blast. Koichi has even used his quirk to float in the air, though the height he can float is limited.
Kazuho Haneyama/Pop Step:
Quirk: Leap
Kazuho's quirk allows her to leap very high in the air and will cushion her fall when she lands. However she needs a solid surface to jump off of.
Iwao Oguro/Knuckleduster:
Quirk: None
Iwao Oguro is quirkless and relies on weapons and his intelligence to win fights. Some equipment he uses includes brass knuckles, various guns, explosives, a grappling hook, and a special designed taser knuckle with enough power to stop a human heart.
Phew, another chapter finished. Many people predicted I'd have Peter and Matt team up with the Nighteye team to fight Overhaul, but I feel like that would be too similar to cannon. Plus the vigilantes deserve more love. Now about adding more Marvel characters, the thing is I want for this to be a Spider-Man/MHA story not a Marvel/MHA story, so I felt like adding too many Marvel characters would be distracting. Also having a lot of heroes makes the story harder to write, because I have to give every character enough screen-time and put in effort to properly represent the characters and their abilities. Anyways next time the final battle starts, I hope you're excited!
