Who's hunting who
A/N: Hey readers! I know, it's a little late, sorry. But allow for me to make it up to you with this thrilling treat. Thankyou all for reading and please enjoy.
Now it was nighttime and Beca and Chloe were now back at their home with Tony Stark, who also had spoken with doctor Connors before they did. Now they needed to figure out their next move and how they were gonna find Octavius and his villainous bunch and put a stop to them.
"So, if he is building this machine of his, then where could he be storing it?" Tony asked as he and the two ladies sat across from each other in the living room.
"Well, Connors said in order for it to work, it has to be placed somewhere high above ground" Beca reminded. "But I don't see how Octavius could do that and stay so well hidden"
"Which reminds me" Chloe chimed in. "How did you not catch him last time?" she wondered. "I mean not trying to be mean, just asking"
"Well, the Vulture gave us his previous location, which was like this big underground layer. But when we got there, he was gone, all his allies were gone and all we found was a handful of stolen material" Tony stated informally. "We stayed on his trail and almost caught up to him, but then he just slipped away"
"He's a slippery bastard, that's for sure" Beca noted. "So, he would need a new hideout, and yet be able to gain access to higher ground for his little science project to work without anyone catching him"
This gave Chloe a thought. "Oscorp" she said and caught their attention. "He used to work there, right? Well the building is still there, and he probably knows the layout well enough to gain access to it"
"Yea, and let's forget, you told me yourself Tony that it was tied with the Avengers tower for third largest structure in Manhattan" Beca noted. "That would make it a perfect setup for his machine"
"Yes, but it's not Oscorp anymore, remember?" he reminded.
"What is it now?" Chloe asked.
"It's now used for the company that Pepper owns" he answered. "And since I like to her everything, she would know if Octavius got anywhere near that place"
"What if he didn't need to?" Beca brought up, catching her wife's and her pal's curiosity. "After all, he's got Da Sound Machine working for him" she noted with raised eyebrows.
"Point taken" Tony nodded. "Tomorrow, I'll have Pepper start going through her employees list and see if any of em were members of.... this... acappella group or whatever" he informed, sparking hope in the two spouses. "But I hafta warn you two, that's a long list to go through"
"We're sure" Beca chuckled. "Just let us know as soon as you find anything"
"Will do" he nodded. "In the mean time, I'll have a lookout for anymore dramatic weather changes" he noted.
"Weather changes?" Beca raised an eyebrow.
"Yea, sandstorms, lightning rods, electrical problems, that sort of thing" he shot back with a smartass tone.
"Eat me rich boy" Beca retaliated with a particular finger raised at Tony.
"Hey, that's my job" Chloe reminded with a playful slap to the arm, Beca closing her eyes with cheeks turning red from the remark. Tony just stood there and tried his best not to burst out laughing.
"Youtwohaveagoodnight" he quickly said before rushing to the door while continuing to suppress his laughter.
"You too Tony" Chloe called back with a proud grin, almost laughing herself as Beca slowly turned to her with a vengeful look. "What? It is" Chloe shrugged innocently.
"You know what, come here"
"No, NOOOO HO OH!"

The next day, Beca was back at work after her weekend off. She was now in Theo's office right outside the recording studio, looking through a bunch of notes for a new song. "Maybe if we replace this with a higher note, it could sound better" Beca suggested with her finger on the point of the song they were struggling with as she stood by Theo, who sat in his chair while studying the notes.
"It's possible, but that could also affect the rest of the song, badly" he replied notably and worriedly.
"Don't worry, I was also think-" she stopped when her spidey senses suddenly flared up.
"GET DOWN!" she tackled Theo outta the way of a miniature warhead that came bursting through the window behind them, obliterating the desk and shattering the remaining windows around them. Beca kept Theo covered and secured as they coughed and gagged and waited for another possible attack, but nothing else happened. "You ok?" she quickly checked.
"I'm fine" he coughed. "Thankyou" he sighed as he tried to compose himself.
Beca quickly scanned the room for the few others that were also in the room. They had a few injuries and were shaken up, but nothing serious. She then carefully peaked up through the window to see her attacker running along the rooftops. "Stay here till help arrives, I'll be right back" she instructed with urgency, standing to charge out and get after her attacker.
She typed in a code on the fancy watch she had that would send out her spider drone before both watches started turning into web shooters. Luckily, she remembered to bring her Spidey suit with her in case one of the villains made a move while she was at work. She got to the roof of the building right after she changed into her suit and started following the direction of her spider drone. It was right on the attacker's tail as Spidey began to catch up with them. Spidey could see the footage of the villain parkour-ing to what looked like some type of machine factory while she swung to the tracker's location.
She made it to the roof of the building where she reunited with her spider drone before crawling through the air vent. It was less then a minute later before she crawled out and touched down inside a small room with nothing in it. 'Oh shit, did I just fall into a trap?' she thought to herself, and then was proven right when the room began to fill up with gas. Luckily, her suit also kept her safe from any sort of gas.
"Ow" Beca exclaimed when she felt a pinch in the back of her neck, and reached back to pull out a dart. "Aw son of a bitch" was all she could say before falling unconscious.
By the time Beca regained consciousness, she was in a much larger room with many different pipes and machines, hanging upside down, wrapped tightly in chains, and without her mask. She tried to break free, but to no avail. But then, she was approached by her attacker in a black suit with some kind of fancy armor and lots of weapons. But what really caught Beca by surprise, was who this person was.
"Hello my little feisty mouse" the all too familiar Kommissar grinned. "It haz been such a long time since I last saw you, and I have been looking forward to dis for a long time" she stated, looking down on the brunette with that seductively evil grin. "I cannot tell you how much it pleases me to see you again" she added.
"Kommissar, somehow I just knew I was gonna run into you again" she groaned while irritably shaking her head and rolling her eyes.
"What? You did not miss me?" she mockingly asked.
"No, but I'll admit you do look good in that suit" she confessed, before sniffing at her. "Whoo, but you don't smell like cinnamon anymore" she added mockingly, the German's grin fading a little. "So what's ur supervillain name, the Nazi Slut?"
"Always so feisty, always so stupid" now Kommissar shook her head. "You know, I did not want dis. I mean, I wanted to tie you up of course, but under better circumstances" she admitted as she adjusted her gloves.
"I'm flattered" Beca groaned again with a raised eyebrow.
"But most importantly, I thought we could've made a great team together, we would've been unstoppable" she stated disappointingly. "But you had to be so damn loyal to dose friends of ur's" she angrily added.
"At least I have friends, and the only reason you wanted me to join is because you knew I was threat" she shot back. "Don't act like you didn't, especially considering how different our lives have turned out"
"You are hanging upside down, at my mercy, and you wanna talk about how different our lives have turned out?" Kommissar raised an eyebrow. "Oh I almost feel sorry for you" she admitted while shaking her head.
"I could say the same to you" Beca countered. "I mean, obviously ur coming after me for revenge, right? But revenge for what? For shoving you into ur buddies when you wouldn't take a hint? Or when you were about cause harm to my now wife?" Beca fired off at her.
"What you did zat day went everything!" she furiously argued. "It ruined our lives, you embarrassed us!" she practically spat at her.
"Well honey, that tends to happen when you don't cut ur losses and cry over spilt milk" Beca smugly shot back, receiving a hard right punch to the face. Beca had to admit, that was a harder punch then what any normal person could dish out. Kommissar was definitely no ordinary person, Beca was sure Octavius was to thank for that as well, but Beca couldn't help but get a laugh from the German's reaction. "You hit just like the bitch you are" Beca laughed mockingly, receiving a furious combo of punches and kicks, like Beca was her own personal punching bag.
Kommissar ended her assault with a spin kick that sent Beca swinging across the room, her body radiating with the effects of the attack. Beca was sure she was tasting blood and had at least one swollen spot on her face, but this didn't come close to anything she's suffered before. "Whoo, how I have waited for dis day" Kommissar stated breathlessly, reminiscing in her vengeance.
"Really? This is what you've been waiting for all these years?" Beca almost laughed. "Because I'm barely even feeling it, I'm in the zone now"
"Oh don't worry, we're just warming up" Kommissar sinisterly assured.
"I hope so, cos this feels more like amateur hour to me" Beca noted. "My wife doesn't even have super strength and she can give me more action then this" she mockingly, but also a little honestly, added. This caused the blonde to sigh irritably and frustratedly before delivering another sidekick to her torso, causing her to laugh again. "And she didn't need to knock me out in order to tie me up either" she added before bursting out laughter again.
"You laugh and make jokes now, but soon you'll beg for mercy" she sincerely warned with full assurance.
"Oooo, spoken like a true supervillain" Beca mocked again. "Man, you really are a class act Kommissar, evil, mental, arrogant, and stupid" she sarcastically went on.
"Is zat what you think?" she shot up her eyebrows in slight amusement.
"You make it kinda obvious" Beca nodded. "You think ur so smart, have everything well thought out, think ur untouchable and that you've already won, it's just like when we were competing" she explained.
"Ah, is zat it?" she grinned.
"Yea, except ur already screwed" she noted. "Me, Tony Stark and all of his friends, we all know what you, ur brother, and Octavius are up to" she noted with a warning tone.
But all that did, was make the German laugh again. "It does not matter what you, or any of ur friends, know" she stated as she crouched down to meet her eyes. "You say I am ze one who is arrogant enough to think I have already one, when you are ze one who is hanging upside down and making threats when you are about to die a slow and painful death" she stated again, getting a sincere point through and leaving her captive without words. "I zink dis time, you underestimate how far we are, and overestimate we you are" she noted arrogantly. "You are nowhere near stopping us. And after I am done wiz you, me and my friends will take care of your pal Tony Stark, and zen your wife and all of your other friends will be nozing but servants to us" she promised thoroughly, making the brunette's blood boil with narrowed eyes. "As you can see, I'm much smarter and not as arrogant as you may sink" she cockily grinned.
"Yea, except for one thing" Beca countered, Kommissar curiously shot up her eyebrows. "You were so busy being too far ahead of me, that you didn't even think to remove my web shooters" she revealed, Kommissar not quite sure why that was so supposed to mean anything. "Which also happen to pack something called acid webs" she added before breaking free of her melted restraints.
She then flipped into a kick once she was free, knocking her nemesis away. She landed on her feet as her captor slid away, and drew two pistols once she came to a stop. Spidey hopped like a frog to avoid the shots, discovering that it wasn't a room they were in, it was more like a maze of pipes and machines. Hopefully, this would make it a little easier for her to hide. Once Beca was outta sight, Kommissar rose back to her feet and went ahead and reloaded the pistols and made sure she was stocked on her other stuff.
"You know, when I was little, I had an uncle zat took me on hunting trips" Kommissar informed as she checked her arsonal. "I had more kills den any ozer hunter in da family, so dey started calling me, Kommissar da hunter" she went on. "I guess we can make dat my 'supervillain name'" she finished proudly.
"And so far, all you have is slightly enhanced strength and guns!" Beca called out. "Ur not really great at being a nemesis" she mocked.
"Oh trust me, zere is much more to come, I've got lots of surprises for you" he stated promisingly.
"Well I'll admit, the name is better then what I thought of" she noted.
"And what was that?" she asked.
"The cinnamon scent" and despite the current situation, they almost made both women laugh.
"I must admit, it's going to be a real shame watching you die" Kommissar noted.
"Aww, even in vengeance, ur still gonna miss me" Beca mocked.
"Just don't sink your death is going to be any nicer" Kommissar warned as she began searching around the maze.
"I wouldn't bet on it" Beca quietly noted to herself.
She then began sneaking around the structure filled with boilers, pipes and machines, using her senses to stay aware of any potential dangers. She then spotted her mask lying on the floor just down from where she was. Beca sighed in relief as she snuck over to retrieve it, but once she grabbed it, her spidey senses went off right before an explosive went off. Spidey jumped straight up to the ceiling before it detonated, giving herself away for Kommissar to continue firing off at her. She jumped back down to the floor, but not before a bullet grazed her shoulder.
Spidey grunted and hissed at the wound, but willed herself through it. She strapped her mask on and moved to somewhere Kommissar didn't know she was. "Karen?" she whispered. "Can you track her?"
"Sorry, there appears to be something interfering with my detector"
"Well that's just great" Beca rolled her eyes. But then, her senses went off again and she instinctively ducked before a foreign object could collide with the back of her head. "What the-the hell was that?! A boomerang?!"
"Like I said, lots of surprises!" she called back before popping outta the corner with a gun shooting and a boomerang flying at her. Beca hopped over the boiler before she could take any other hits. However, when she landed, her foot got caught in a beartrap. Even with her super strength, it still hurt a little, and kept her safely secured. Beca groaned as she tried to pry herself free of the trap, before her rival returned.
Beca made a Keanu Reeves from the Matrix like maneuver as her only way of avoiding the next gunshot. She brought herself back up to snatch the guns away with her webs. One of em, as she yanked it towards her, used her free leg to kick it right at her attackers face, sending her stumbling back. This bought her some time to pry herself free from the beartrap, her super strength making it a little easier. She freed herself in time to notice the hunter throwing a knife at her.
Beca made the same move she did before, only this time the blade caught her right up the forehead. This threw off the avenger enough for her adversary to follow her attack with a running knee. The impact caused Beca to stumble and then roll back to a stance before the hunter could continue her attack. The fact that Beca still had a gunshot wound in the shoulder and an injured foot gave Kommissar an advantage though. Spidey was able to block the next few attacks until the german connected with a kick to the leg, then following with a left punch to the ribs and then the face before a straight right to the face and then a straight kick.
Beca attempted to retaliate, but Kommissar was so quick. She even dodged the last punch with a backflip and brought the tip of her boot into Beca's jaw. Kommissar then took out two other, and much bigger, knives that seemed to be more combat typed. Beca was quick to dodge the slices threatening to tear her apart, but knowing how fast this woman was, Beca knew she would hafta pull something real swift to get outta this.
Just when Kommissar was getting close, Beca combined a super jump with a backflip to hop on top of a boiler before shooting webs at her legs and yanking her off balance. She then webbed her blade carrying hands together and to the floor before jumping into a stomp right on her torso. She then unleashed an onslaught of punches before Kommissar was able to break free. Beca jumped to the wall just in time and once her attacker was up, Beca threw a web grenade to momentarily conceal her. Beca then shot a web at the ceiling and kept it in her grasp as she ran along the walls and machines and started webbing the hunter up.
She did that for a solid minute until Kommissar couldn't break free, and then swung in to kick her out and sent her flying into the steal wall. Kommissar groaned at the pain before Beca joined her and continued her assault. But just when Beca had her beat, the hunter's electronic brother showed up. "Hey!" he shouted before firing electricity at her, barely missing his sister as Beca pounced away and swung out a window. "Kommissar, are you ok?" he hovered to his sister's aid as she tried to regain her composure.
"I'm fine" she furiously groaned, her vengeance increasing by the second. The spider may have gotten a lucky break this time, but it would not happen again. Kommissar had many hunting trophies, but Spidey's mask on her wall was going to be her greatest one ever.
A/N: There's that thrill ride, and again I'm so sorry this came late. But I promise I'll get better at that. So thankyou everyone for reading, please stay tuned for the next amazing ride ahead, comment, vote, follow (if you haven't already), and have a nice day/night.
