Showdown in the Council Room

(Same thing as last post, White = Cat, Normal = Me)

I dropped behind Phobia in the council room , saber at her throat" Anyone moves and I take her head" I snarled. I could fel her fear" you should be afraid" I snarled" They won't want their precious angel harmed " I saw the fearful look on Godfrey's face" Oh you'll gt her back"

Standing in alarm, I looked over at the event unfolding. "Great," I said, slipping into my sarcastic Spidey mode, "I have somewhere I've got to go, and you've come along and delayed me!"

I looked up and almost droped the disguise " Don't wory, she won't mind if you're late." I shoved her toard Godfrey and kicked Ronin straight in the face, a roundhouse towards Ionfist. I called my saber to my hands, aiming straight for spider wman, this bitch would be a dead one

I webbed the saber in mid-air. I heard the bells begin. "This is just perfect," I said, using the webbing to hurtle myself at the kidnapper, "I've met her once, and already I'm making a bad impression."

I turned and sidestepped him cloak commingaway I yanked my saber back and unfurled the double blade. " All of you will die before this night is over." I turned, saber blades glowing in the dim light" But you're first spider woman, because you anoyed me" I shot towards her, one blade almost slicing her in half. I dropped one lbade as Dr Strange threw a spell and I called the power orbs to my hand

" Your powers are mine" the mists began to flow from him, soon he was but mere mortal, useless to the avengers

"Damn," I cursed, realizing what happened. "Listen, let's just wrap this up quickly, maybe I can still get there in time." I remember the smile on her face, the way the lights played across that amazing hair. Shakingmy head to snap my head out of it, I shot a web at her. Purposely missing, I lunged forward, shooting another above her head. Shooting into the air above the kidnapper, I let go and used my weight and gravity to add force to my already powerful kick.

I flew acros the room, barely managing to keep ahold of my saber" Ah fuck that hurt" I snarled . Spider woman laughed and I lunged for her sith eyes burning brightly

"Ooh, I'm sorry," I said, "Next time you try to kidnap someone, you should wear more armor."

That did it. I used a tri heel spin kick and sent him across the room. I grabbed Spidr Woman by her hair and shoved my saber straight into her back" Rot in hell bitch" I let her drop and turned on Dr strange next

Struggling onto my feet, I had to give her points for style. I charged headfirst at her, then dropped into a spin to knock her legs out from under her.

I shoved him back with the force stabing Dr Strange. Eyes hunting I turned on Wolveriene who was standing at the ready with Godfrey" You're next" I snarled. I went after Wolveriene and both of us ended up wrestling on the floor . I kneed him in the stomach then a headbutt

Falling back onto the floor again, I think maybe I bit off more than I could chew. "You know, that's a trick I haven't come across yet, I think..." I said, trying to divert her attention to me. This could get nasty...

Wolveriene growled at Spider Man" Don't you get it kid? IT's the same girl! Don't be an idiot!" I socked him in the face and jumped to my feet, wiping the blood off the corner of my mouth. " Shut up!" I snarled. I turned to Spider Man, I truly hoped he didn't believe him

"But, why would she be in the Temple, then?" I asked, shock not quite setting in due to the adrenaline of being in battle. "A-and, how..." I shook my head, "You're just messing with me again, aren't you? Why does everyone think it's so funny to pick on the Spider?" I forced myself not to believe him. It couldn't be true, it just couldn't. That smile could NEVER belong to someone evil.. But then again, have I ever seen any baddy smile a true, genuine smile?

Don't ask me why but I dropped the disguise. I slipped out of the council room and started running for the cherry trees .why did I trusy him?

Forcing myself out of my thoughts, I didn't even see the kidnappers departure. I looked over at Wolverine, "It wasn't her, I know that..." If only I could believe myself. Helping him to his feet, he said he'd take care of finding the medics so I could find the truth out for myself.

I had groomed myself quickly and was sitting at the cherry trees when he arrived

Resting my hands on my knees, I panted out an apology for being late. I knew it wasn't her... I chuckled a bit at my foolishness for even listening to that jerk in the first place.

I smiled softly" It's ok..I heard you had some trouble" My throat tightened. Should I tell him? My heart was torn

"Yeah," I began, feeling a bit of tension in the air. "Ooh, by the way, I never got your name earlier."

I paused" Kat" I said looking away from him eeling a bit shy

"Kat," I said, as if tasting the word in my mouth, "My name's Peter- Uhh.. I mean Spider-man..." Something about her made me want to lose all of my inhibitions.

I paled for a second.. Oh chirst... If I could just rewnd time and forget this stupid plan! But I smiled" Well Spidy, what kind of trouble did you run into? the council wern't specific" I moved my cloak over my sabers. If he recgonized them it's all be over

"Meh," I shrugged, "Just the usual hostage-situation type thing. I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long..."

I shook my head" Oh no.. in fact, I was rather detaned myself. " Shi the scrape on my cheek from wolveriene. Twisting to hide it my saber hilts wee evieled

My eyes went wide behind my mask. He was right, god.. he was RIGHT. Stepping backwards, I shook my head in disbelief. "Please tell me you can explain this..."

For the first time I gave a half shit and a damn . My eyes filled with tears"I'm sorry.. he was right.. I can't. I'm so sory.. take the orbs... they have Drstrange's powers in them.." I set th chests before him and tears falling I ran as fast as I could away

Picking up the chests, I felt numb. I honestly could barely breathe and my vision swam. How could this happen? I was so sure... My legs felt like lead when I finally brought myself around to make my way back to the Temple.
