The Monster's Doom
You ended up dragging yourself to the living room after you woke up. The collar was still around your neck so your senses didn't go off when Fred rounded the corner. You ended up bumping into him and you fell back. He held out a hand for you to grab to help you back up.
Fred: Sorry about that man. You aight?
You nodded. Not having powers kinda sucks.
Fred: I think Wasabi is cooking breakfast.
You ended up following him into the dinning room where Wasabai was talking to Danny, Sam, and Miles. Even Venom was hanging out on Miles' shoulder. You took a seat next to Sam while Fred grabbed a piece of toast.
Wasabi: I'm telling you, Japanese women are better than any other woman. No argument.
Sam: I would have to disagree my asain friend.
Just then, Akio walked into the room yawning. All eyes were now on her which caught her attention.
Akio: What?
Fred: You're not wearing pants again.
Yep. Akio was only wearing a tank top and a pair of pink underwear. She blushed as she covered herself and ran out.
Akio: I forgot we had guests!
You, Miles, Sam, and Danny were all drooling before two hands came and smacked the back of all your heads. Damn you miss your sense power.
Laura: If you stop staring I'll consider letting you keep you little friend down there.
Cat: It's not nice to stare at women who aren't your girlfriend.
Wasabi let out a hardy laugh while the four of you rubbed your heads. Cat moved around the couch and sat next to you while Laura snatched Fred's toast. Fred just shrugged and pulled another piece of toast from his pocket.
Sam: So what are we even doing today?
Widow entered the room and tossed her tablet at you. You weren't paying attention so it instead fell to the floor.
Widow: Right. No spidey sense.
You bent over and picked up the tablet.
Widow: We found some more energy spikes down in Shibuya that need to be investigated. We'll be breaking up into teams.
You handed the tablet to Wasabi who looked it over. Akio returned to the room, now wearing pants and refusing to look at you and the other teenage boys.
Akio: We'll assign the teams once everyone wakes up.
---------
You ended up being placed on a team with Miles, because of Venom, and Kamala. Your job was to investigate the eastern part of Shibuya which seemed easy enough. Mostly stores and shops.
Kamala: I wonder if the Infinity Shards are noticeable.
Miles: I hope so. I don't want to spend all day walking around trying to find a crystal.
Venom said something to Miles who just rolled his eyes.
Miles: Is he always this perverted.
You nodded. All the time. You ended up in a back alley where you found a gym. Venom didn't sense anything there so you instead moved towards the back of the street.
Kamala: Wouldn't it be easier if we all just split up?
Miles: Too many things that could go wrong. For starters, Yakuza don't exactly like outsiders, the Goblin Gang is running free, one of us doesn't have powers, and we don't know who has the Shard.
Y/N: Miles is right. We have to stay close to each other or at least in the same area.
Kamala just nodded as you kept looking around. Even though everything was in Japanese, you were able to read the signs and understand the locals. Nothing even remotely related to a crystal of any kind.
Miles: Maybe it's a necklace? Like the one Ruth has.
Ruth: Not all of them are like mine.
The three of you jumped at her voice. Ruth was just standing there behind you with a stoic face.
Ruth: This one is slightly smaller than mine. It's still just as dangerous.
Kamala: Can you sense them?
Ruth nodded. She grabbed her necklace.
Ruth: After my mother gave me this piece, I was able to sense their presence.
Miles: So you can tell the future and senses space rocks. That's pretty cool.
Ruth shook her head.
Ruth: I constantly see many futures. A lot of bad ones. More than good unfortunately. I am burdened with these visions.
You suddenly felt bad. You couldn't help but blame yourself for what she was seeing now.
Kamala: But you can change them.
Ruth nodded.
Ruth: I can. The future is always shifting around but....
She looked at you.
Ruth: I've only seen this future for the last four months.
Last four months? That's when you got your powers. Was everything that you did leading to this evil future?
Kamala: It'll be fine! Y/N here is a Hero through and through.
Miles: No doubt about it.
You smiled. It was nice to know that your friends didn't think you'll turn all evil on them.
Ruth: Now with that out of the way, I am here to help you look for the Shard.
Miles: Lead the way.
Ruth didn't move.
Ruth: It's right above us.
You all looked up. You could only see the sky. You squinted your eyes and suddenly saw a shift in movement. It was someone falling from seemingly nowhere.
Miles: Everyone watch out!
You leaped out of the way as the person landed onto the streets. Civilians began to scream and run while you picked yourself back up.
Miles: Is that a samurai?!
The man pulled out his sword and pointed it towards you and Ruth. Looks like he was out for your blood. He raised his sword and brought it down but you rolled away. You grabbed Ruth and tried to leap away. You suddenly remembered that you didn't have powers which meant you had to run.
Miles: Get out of here!
You watched as Venom covered Miles in a red and black costume that resembled his regular one while Kamala enlarged her fists. Kamala swung but the samurai blocked the blow with his blade. He kicked her away while Miles shot the artificial webbing at him. The Samurai cut through the webs and moved to attack.
You ducked into an alleyway and placed Ruth down. You looked up into the sky and found the floating castle from earlier. Whoever attacked you yesterday was back for round two.
Y/N: This isn't good.
You moved to help but Ruth grabbed your arm.
Ruth: You can't be captured.
Captured? At least they weren't trying to kill you. You ducked back down to at least protect Ruth. You peeked over the corner to watch the fight.
Miles swung around the samurai which distracted him enough for Kamala to deliver a blow which sent him flying. He caught himself and slid to a halt before his sword began to glow. Miles shot another web but the samurai cut through it effortlessly. Kamala tried to attack as well but the Samurai blocked the blow which caused her hand to be burnt. She shrunk her fists to normal size and grabbed her hand. She was in pain.
Miles tried to deliver a kick but was caught and thrown away. The samurai then raised his blade to deliver the killing blow. He didn't account for Venom. Venom took over Miles' body and slammed the samurai away causing him to crash into a store. Kamala enlarged her good hand and delivered a devastating blow to the samurai before he could get back up.
It looks like they have it in the bag.
???: This was easier than I thought.
You turned around only to be knocked out by an unseen force. Ruth screamed but she too was knocked unconscious. Miles turned his head towards the scream and saw Doom carrying you and Ruth away.
Miles: Y/N!
He tried to help but was knocked away by the samurai who had recovered. The samurai walked over to Doom who activated something on his wrist. A bright light shined on them and Kamala tired to reach for you. She only grapped air when you vanished. Miles and Kamala looked at each kther as the castle in the sky dissapeared once again.
Soon after, the others arrived to find a destroyed street, and two mission Heroes.
Widow: Where's Y/N and Ruth?
Miles: Dr. Doom was here! He took them!
Everyone was shocked by the news. Widow clenched her fists while Hiro pulled out his phone. He began to typd on it and smiled.
Hiro: The tracker on the collar is still active!
Viv: We can track them to the castle.
Widow nodded.
Widow: Then let's get to it. Everyone suit up.
-----------
The Silver Samurai tossed you and Ruth into a cell before closing the heavy door. He returned to the throne room where Doom was looking over the Shard he had taken from Ruth.
M.O.D.O.K: We have them all. With this we can finally finish the Godslayer Protocol.
Dr. Doom: Not so fast you fool. We still need the boy.
M.O.D.O.K: I can get that collar off of him in a manner of hours.
Doom smiled under his mask.
Dr. Doom: Good. The new age is upon us. Let's hope you do not fail me.
M.O.D.O.K just snickered as he thought about what you will bring. As you laid unconscious on the cold floor, you began to dream.
~~~~~~
You were walking along the street with your hands in your pockets. As you reached the corner, you smiled to yourself at everything you had just taken. Having the slide of hand on your side was an amazing thing sometimes. You ended up in a secluded alley before you emptied your pockets with all the jewelry and wallets you had taken.
You began to rummage through some poor sap's wallet before someone entered the alley. You quickly hid everything as an old man approached you.
Old Man: That's quite the collection you have there young man.
You gulped. Another person here to take your stuff. You stood up and raised your fists. You were only 10 at the time but you could still hold your own against an old man.
Old Man: I'm not here to fight you. I actually want to help.
Y/N: What do you mean help?
The old man looked at the pile of stolen goods and smiled.
Old Man: Do you like stealing?
Honestly, no. It made you feel guilty to no end. You needed to if you were going to survive. You shook your head.
Old Man: Do you want to change?
Change? What was he on about?
Old Man: I can help you. You won't have to steal if you come with me.
He held out his hand but you didn't take it. You didn't know who this guy was or what he wanted. He must've known what you were thinking because he pulled his hand away.
Old Man: You don't trust strangers. Good for you. I don't want anything from you lad.
He placed his hands in his pockets.
Old Man: I want to help you become the best you that you can be. You know things don't have to be like this forever.
You rasied a brow.
Old Man: Nothing is ever set in stone. Only you can chose your destiny.
He held out his hand once more.
Old Man: You can call me the Creator.
You looked at him for a moment. What did you have to loose? You slowly grabbed his hand and shook it.
Old Man: Perfect. Let's go get you some food.
The Old Man lead you out of that dark alleyway and away from the life you knew.
~~~~~~~~~
You slowly opened your eyes. They were glowing F/C with fury.
