After a long day in SHIELD it was nice to get away from the "Annoying kids" Kaine really wasn't sure if this session helped any of the ones that he was training at all. Still Fury must've had a ton of patience for them in order to get this far, some had progressed slowly, but Kaine knew they wouldn't be ready to go out and handle bad guys on a regular basis. He sat up top watching the street below in New York as people came and go. Kaine was holding onto a gargoyle statue like it was nothing as he clung with it with ease, however it required a bit of concentration.
The Spider was still struggling with the idea of not being to see in one eye from the fight with Venom that had happened almost a week ago. It was a miracle that he had even gotten away with his life, since symbiotes were highly dangerous. Peter would know, and so would Ben Riley for all that mattered. "Still no sign of him." He grumbled under his breath hoping that he could spot Venom but like a shadow he had faded from view and couldn't be seen. "But I'll take that." He pointed out as he heard a nearby woman yelling in surprise as a shady looking figure ran past her as he had his hands full of change and money like he had stolen it from somewhere. Seeing this as a chance to do something different he swung down closer and caught the guy's leg in webbing. He dragged him on the ground as he saw a shocked look on his face.
"Spider-Man is that you?!" The guy asked as Kaine sighed. When would they learn?
"Nope not Spider-Man, I wish people could remember the name, Scarlet Spider." He said as the guy took out a large knife, Kaine felt his spidey sense go off from it as he brought out his own sharp stingers, they were at least a foot or so long, but not as sharp as Wolverine's claws by any matter. "Nice try, punk." Kaine said before webbing his arm to the ground. Sighing he could hear the police starting to blare their horns, and so he climbed the walls nearby before anyone asked questions. True someone might've seen his red suit, but he wasn't going to hang around with the cops, he didn't trust them. Problem was he didn't trust a lot of people. So with that he began to hide out in the alley ways hoping no one would spot him.
The half demon centaur-like Obaara was was walking along the streets, it was a nice Friday evening, and just enjoying a nice quiet time after a buzy day in the Mansion and later, her office. It has been exactly one week that she has spent with the X-Men but she still had not gotten used to the idea of being a hero in training. Obaara was wearing her nornal day clothing, as her X-Men uniform was not yet ready. She was eating a large pizza, with tuna, extra cheese and bacon, that was folded in four, and was almost half way finished. It was not too much, but she would eat again, just before she got back to the Mansion. Suddenly sirens could be heard in the distance, with some person laying in the street up ahead. The last thing she needed was to be blamed for something, and on walking closer, she say that a person was stuck to the sidewalk by some white wrapping of some sort. She did not want any more attention, especially from police. Lucky for her that most demons fade into ash or mist when they die, so her past demon hunts where traceless. She however did not want to deal with police now, so she calmly walked towards and into a small and more dimmly lit street. She would wait in there untill the police and commotion would pass. She did not see or hear that another superhero was also already keeping to the shadows in the same little street as her.

The sirens were still going as the blue lights could be seen on the sides of the brick and steel buildings both of which Scarlet had no problem clinging to the whole time. He was watching from one of the fire escapes as the humans arrived as he stayed out of sight. However he had a funny feeling that he wasn't alone anymore, especially when he heard someone come into the alleyway. His spidey sense didn't go off, so he wondered if this person was some how an ally or not a bad guy like that thug was that he wrapped up in his webbing.
As he saw the woman come forward he was surprised to see that the woman was half horse, was she a centaur? Well it was probably odd enough that he was the clone of Peter Parker, he had heard probably of lots of odd things, but this was new. "Hm." He said softly as he watched her curiously with his good eye behind his red and black mask.
Finally he decided to show himself towards the other girl that came in, he had a feeling that this girl didn't seem so bad. Especially when his spidey sense didn't go off either. "Hm looks like you weren't the only one who came out here to escape the police. And yes I was that guy who webbed the thug up before he got away." Kaine said as he crossed his arms. He stood up on the fire railing before jumping down off of it. "I've never seen the likes of you before." He added there was a hint of lack of trust in his voice still. The only one who had ever gotten that close to him before was his girlfriend Katherine, who was also known as Werecat.
As she senced some motion from above herself, she held out one of her flaming hands, to try and see, a little bit better. While her flames did not do too much, other then form one of two flame constructs, the natural light that they gave off, like any other ordinary fire, helped Obaara see better in situations like this. The backdraw? The flames always gave her position away. She was startles out of her thoughts by a male voice from directly above herself, making her jump somewhat and curse in Demonic. A few seconds later, she spoke in English. "What kind of demon are you, a Fire Demon of Zerter? " She said, and for once, she did not know what kind of demon the person was. " I did not come to hide from the police... i came here to avoid being blamed... many people do not like mutants... so they blame mutants " Obaara said with a dark frown. Web that guy? She looked at the person, tilting her head somewhat. " Are some spider demon? " She asked in all seriousness, not really knowing Spider-Man and the other spiders. She listened and heard that the sirening has stopped but the blue lights where visible on the wall. " I am not exactly new, well i am new to the hero business... but not new in general, only my centaur form is fairly new. " She spoke, trying to make sense, and hoping that she did. " It is the first time that i see you around here, as well.... so there... we are even. " She spoke in her usual, slight Sokovian accent and half grinned at him. He looked very lean and ripped, and she knew that he could have been much stronger then what he seemed liked, or much faster... for all she knew, the guy could kill her with just a wave of his hand... and while she was not afraid to die... not after she watched her parents die... Obaara still wanted to do a lot of things.

Kaine could easily see the flames come from Obaara's wrists, they were obvious in the dark ally way. But as he listened to her he couldn't believe what she was saying. She thought he was a demon? There was no way that was possible! His life had been nothing but torment and not one single part of it had hinted that he had demonic nature in it. All he knew was he had spent his life being a clone of Peter Parker, one of the first spider-men. The first thing was he wanted to question her why she thought that. Most demonic spiders he had heard of well actually looked like spiders.
"Is this some kind of trick or something?" Kaine asked. "I am not a demon or anything of the sort. My powers were given to me at a young age off of a genetically enhanced spider." He said and then added to it. "You can point those flames somewhere else. And for the record to even show that I'm on a good side this is probably all the proof that you need." Scarlet pointed out as he showed her his SHIELD badge that marked him as a part of SHIELD as an agent and a member of the Web Warriors. There was the familiar winged eagle in it with SHIELD's long term in it. Supposedly SHIELD were apart of the good guys, but not everyone had believed that.
"My name is Scarlet Spider I work under SHIELD as one of the Web Warriors that are directed by Nick Fury. I suggest before you point any type of weapon towards someone that you learn a little bit about them. Or at least don't jump to conclusions." Kaine said. And it was clear he didn't mention the part about being a clone. He knew not many people could handle that. He has often referred Peter as his brother or close friend, still the idea has never been fully accepted by him. Katherine knew this and so did Peter for the most part. But he did realize one thing the woman had half a centaur body, suppose they were in the same realm of being considered a monster by others. Kaines powers had often been treated that way, and his captors had told him that idea for a long time too.
"But it is odd, my Spidey sense didn't go off on you. Perhaps you aren't a danger." He said as he tried to figure that part out towards her, but for all he knew she may not even know what a spidey sense is, and he gave one last glance towards her flames which were still burning a hot red like the color of his suit.
" Apologies Scarlet Spider, but i thought you where some fire demon. " Obaara spike, still somewhat suspiciously, untill the person showed her an official agent badge. "Um, i am unfamiliar with this SHIELD... is it a secret branch of the CIA or something? " She asked, and she thought that is was some secret branch of the CIA. " I am Obaara Zipos... i learn in the Charles Xavier school... you are a Web Warriors? So you are some special agent, yes?... i am unfortunatly not hero or agent material yet. " She said with her slight accent. growing a little shameful, and as he told her to point the weapon away, she grew confused. " What weapon? i am not pointing any weapon at anybody. " She started and was pretty confused. By Azazel... she so wished that she could have her owl, far less complicated life back... before this superhero thing... she had her hands ful with the occational demon hunts as it was... and now adding to her problems and confusion... she was introduced into the world of superpowers, superheroes that she had no idea even existed. She just wanted to a normal girl, accepted for who she was... but this situation, kicked that wish, in the figurative face. " What is a Spidey Sense? Some alarm? and luckily it did not go off, i hate loud noses. " Obaara spoke, remembering pictures of her youth, as she and a friend wanted into the forest that was near the Sokovian border, having no idea that they where actually wandering on a minefield... until her friend ran ahead to try and catch a bird... Obaara will never forget the terrible explosion of the mine. She winched from the horrific memory, as is she was kicked and saw that Scarlet Spider was still looking at her hands. Then it hit her, he thought that her flames where offensive measures. "Oh... well, honestly... i have... no control over my flames... i can not make them stop and can not turn them off. " Obaara said with some humiliation and embarresment.

"Sort of." Scarlet Said. "SHIELD is a spy team they also help young heroes who want to be a better...well you know hero. THey picked me up and saw an opportunity to form this web warriors since they had so many other spiders that have powers like my own. As for SHIELD it stands for Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division." Kaine said always finding it a mouthful to say but regardless, not many people knew what SHIELD meant.
Scarlet sighed seeing that this girl was full of questions, he wasn't really interested in answering them since he had his handful already from the classes. Suppose he could teach her a thing or two while they were down here waiting for the police to go. "The spidey sense is an alarm for danger, but only I can hear it, or Spider-Man can hear it as well. It is a sharp feeling you get in your head far more obvious than a gut feeling that you get." Kaine explained.
As he heard her speak up about her flames he understood now that she couldn't control them or shut them off. That was always a down side of having powers sometimes. "Hm it's an interesting power." He pointed out as he heard her speak up. "I have more than just that for powers. I have stingers and I can also talk to insects, I know it sounds odd but it can be useful." He admitted as a familiar noise came as he released his stingers, there were two on each hand below the wrist that were about a foot long that had a sharp shiny white color to them that could cut through various objects with enough force from his strength. He heard men approaching as he knew that it was only a matter of time before the police came. "I suggest going further down the alleyway unless you want to be questioned by police. You can follow me since I know these places like the back of my hands." Kaine said as he quickly began to move not sure if Obaara would trust her or not. But he'd save her a headache of having to deal with those policemen.
She grew a bit uneasy when she understood that she was actually talking to an agent. She however was a little interedted to learn that he had spider-like powers. " Well i could only be a better hero... as i have been learning in the Xavier school for exactly one week only. " She said with a shrug. She however was very grateful and very lucky at the incredible change that she got from life. She was part of the school that trained the most effective and most powerful mutant team in the world... for decades now.
Obaara smirked at the long name that SHIELD had. "Well, if you ask me... the short version is a nicer and more fitting name. " She smiled a happy half-smile. She listened attentively when Scarlet told and described the Spider Sense to her. "Now that is a very useful power to have. " Obaara nodded, becoming just a little bit envieous. " Also... being able to communicate with insects is a very useful power too. " She smirked, being pretty impressed that he had such powers.
As Scarlet commented on her constant flames, Obaara grew angry at herself, and slammed her fist against the wall that was withing reach. "No!... i hate it!... i hate it!... it is the reason for all of my past recetion and being hated... i did not want to become a human canpfire in there first place... but is is not my fault that i was born a demon. "She spoke in helpless anger and frustration. She was silent for a few long seconds before speaking again. But no matter her vocal control, she could not hide the darkness in her voice. "Yes, i was born a half demon... nothing i can do about that. " She spoke fairly darkly and with some self hatred.
She then glanced backwards to listen to a voice that was closing in on there location. While she was silent as she nodded to Scarlet. she had no control over the noise that her hooves where making with each step. " I am sorry. " She wispered, reffering to the noise as Obaara followed Scarlet.

Although she couldn't see it he rose an eye in front of her not enjoying the tantrum she was giving him. She didn't know of the pain that he had been through getting his powers. Sure everyone thought they were cool. But he was constantly tired of being in Peter's Shadow, he had gone far and wide to try and make himself his own name. Even changing his name to Scarlet Spider for his code name helped but he knew it'd make little difference. That was when he turned back as he swung onto one of the fire escapes nearby as he held onto the railing easily with his powers and landed on top.
"Do you really think I wanted these powers of being a spider?" Kaine asked in a serious tone of his own. "You say they are cool but no one knows the pain I went through to get them when I was genetically enhanced with that spider bite. Pain that would last for years." He said looking at his own stingers. "Look kid I know life isn't fair but you have to face up to it eventually. I'm saying tough like this because the world is tough. I have been chasing the bad guys who did this to me with no end and day and night. I joined SHIELD in hopes that I'd be able to find them but obviously that lead to where also." Kaine said with a sigh.
"I'm always in the shadow of someone else, it bothers me to no end. Why you might ask? I'm a clone of the first Spider-Man, only enhanced with different powers." He said knowing that not many knew that. He knew Peter wouldn't have been enthused if he had mentioned his real name. But he doubted Obaara knew who Spider-Man was. If she had his phone she could look it up. Now that they were farther down the edge of the alleyway they were truly alone. No one would bother them here except for the tiny creatures like mice or insects that lived there, and Kaine would know about the insects.
As Scarlet also let some of his anger and frustration out on Obaarra, it did not anger her, she understood him. "True... we do not get to choose our abilities, but being about to sence danger is a very strong power. " She said and nodded darkly. "Life is not fair, true... i have known pain since i was 5 years old... and it was not just pain from being constantly humiliated and bullied. " Obaara spok and followed Scarlet. "Being a clone dose not define who you are... your actions do... being unable to hide my demon being makes it that much harder for me... you can blend in, have a secret identity... everybody knows who i am... everybody knows i am a demon... or think that i am a mutant. " Obaara said right before Scarlet stopped. There where alone, and it was finally quiet. " i have been fighting other demons... yes... my own kind... since i was a teen... but the person who did this to me... it will take years, or decades of waiting for me fight him. " Obaara said, motioning to her horse lower body and gently moving her wings so that Scarlet would understand. As Obaara stood there, she closed her eyes as if she was sleeping and feel silent.

Scarlet had remembered a lot of times where the spidey sense had been helpful, no one is entirely sure where it came from or how it happened but he knew that Peter and the other spider heroes would understand the oddity of the power it is. But then again some other people thought it was neat too to detect danger. He could sense it around his family with Katherine and friends if anything were to happen he'd know about it. He sighed, "I'm sorry if I wasn't exactly nice to you. I don't trust many due to my past and it's likely not going to change. You're just a kid. A good chunk of my childhood was taken away once I got my powers." He said as he crossed his arms.
And just like that he listened to Obaara as she spoke about being a demon and hiding her powers. For kaine some of it was easy, but the scars on his face weren't so obvious or easy to hide, he could hide it under a mask and that was it. Scarlet's good eye fell upon her horse body, like himself she too had been a normal person with a normal life. Suppose they had more similarities than he realized. As the police were getting ready to end their patrolling around the area, things got tense again as he flinched feeling his spidey sense go off again. "Oh boy I just felt it again." He said and just like that his answer came.
Bang Bang! There was a scream in the crowd as it sounded like a gun shot had gone through the air. People were running past, but the police were so occupied on this guy that they hadn't bothered to look back and help them. "Look kid. there's someone who's dangerous nearby if you want we can do a..." Scarlet sighed as the voice sounded funny in his mouth. "A team up to show me you really have what it takes to be a hero. Otherwise all that talk I don't believe you...And those encouraging words they were needed." He said referring to her earlier when she said the stuff about a clone. Scarlet quickly put out his right hand as he heard a familiar thwip noise of him releasing web fluid from his wrist as it was organic. He sent it flying to the roof top as he held onto it tightly and swung forward for familiar lunge as it sent him in the direction of the nose. Most people were running but for him this was just the daily life of a super hero job.
" I am not just a kid... not anymore... maybe agewise, yes... but i have experience things no others of my age, or any child for that matter... would ever have to go threght. Demon hunts to name one of them... fighting and killing your own kind. " She said darkly and then her face grew even darker and fairly sad. "And anything that resembled my normal life was taken away when i saw my parents get killed. " She said turning her face away and fighting the urge to cry again. It took her a few very long seconds to regain controll of her emotions but her voice was still shaky.
She turned her head in a confused way to Scarlet, before hearing gun shots in the nearby location, making Obaara jump fairly and nearly out in her demonic language. She looked down at Scarlet and nodded. " while i am only an X-Men trainee, so i am not hero material yet... it will be the right thing to do. " She spoke and her brain sort of went into 'Demon Hunt' mode, and she took off in a gallop, running towards the location. She was not really caring if she would get shot at or not, but would want to avoid that. She also did not have either of her weapons with her, but hopefully she would come up with a plan to make up for that.

"You're a kid to me, I'm at least thirty years old believe it or not." Kaine said knowing his age didn't show too easily with his suit on in fact you couldn't see anything at all which was fine with him. "I suppose we have similar pasts. Our childhood was taken away once we had powers. I couldn't enjoy the things I used to love and cherish. I had to grow up and become Scarlet Spider." he pointed out as he came out to where the screaming was he saw a thug wearing what you'd expect. A long trench coat and wearing a mask to hide his identidy. He seemed to be enjoying what he was doing here and Kaine didn't agree to it.
"Heay why don't we talk for a civilized matter for a change. Man to man and no weapon." Kaine said as he sent out a bit of webbing onto the gun as it pretty much jammed it leaving him wide open. However he knew the webbing wouldn't last forever. The guy would figure out it'd melt in an hour or so before he'd have to start using it again or use another weapon if he had more on him. Taking advantage of this Kaine gave him a powerful kick to the had leaving him dazed. It would've given Obaara a chance to attack now with the state that he was in and he was just barely hanging onto the weapon. "He's open Obaara attack him if you want." Kaine said as he got out of the guy's way before he nearly ran him over.
Obaara, watched as Scarlet used his webbing on the gun, and was amaized at the incredible aiming that he did. She however nodded to Scarlet. She was not really keen on getting close to a human gunman to harm him, but the half demon girl, had no choice. "Scarlet... what if i kill him? " She asked with an unsure voice and waited as the gunner was kicked in the head. Obaara nodded and took a somewhat fast trot, aiming to literally ram her own body into him. It hurt Obaara as the large thug collided againt her, making her gasp from the pain of the impact, and watched as she person was sent sailing into the pavement. She however did not want to accidentally trample him, so she hoped over his body, in a some what clumsy manner. She was surprised when the guy slowly turned around and held his hand up, holding a knife. Ah he pressed the sides, of the handle, the blade of the knife was launched at Obaara. She gasped in surprise and yelled out in pain as the blade, slashed at her leg, causing it to start bleeding. Paralized for a moment from fear and pain, the half demon clumsily kneeled down, causing a lot of aching to her cut leg and sent a few punches to the head and tosro of the thug. As she tried to get up, she had a hard time and was very clumsy in getting back onto all 4 of her leg. The effort made the cut bleed even more, causing Obaara to frown and glance at the bleeding with some concert. " That hurt! " She said simply but had an annoyed face.
Post by Kaine Riley-Parker on Nov 22, 2017 3:15:35 GMT
Scarlet wasn't so sure if he knew the answer himself, if he hit in the right area the arteries would've been cut by his stingers and he would've bled, badly. But he didn't want to think about it. He felt as if he were telling a lie, there was a chance that he could be wrong and this fellow would be dead, and SHIELD would have his head for that one, "It'll be alright, Obaara we'll make sure that he stays alive through this. We just need him knocked out if anything." Kaine said knowing that the fellow could possibly have more weapons on him besides the gun and the knife that he brought out. His webbing would melt away in a few hours off the fire arm but he knew it was better than trying to get that set off.
Kaine winced a bit with his good eye as he saw her get struck by the knife, in his opinion it had been a rookie mistake but she didn't exactly have the powers and the experience that he had. Heck at some points Kaine had wished he had a normal life like a lot of the civilians, but he had obviously done too much now to stop that part of his life. He'd loose SHIELD and probably just about everything else. "I said get away from her!" Kaine called out as he realized that the voice he was using was likely a similar protective one he would've used around his comerads or other web warriors. He sent out some webbing towards the guy's feet, and jumped surprisingly well into the air as the man swung a bit with his spider strength. Once he was done climbing the guy was hanging carelessly from a poll, Scarlet knew getting Obaara caught in this mess was his fault.
"Hmph stupid punk." he said looking up at the webbing that he had done and the guy was dangling from his feet and pleading with him not to call the police but it fell on deaf ears. Kaine was more concerned about Obaara and her injuries. "Well that unfortunately could've gone better." Kaine said as he returned over to where Obaara was as he still had his stingers out of habit. "We can leave now the guy will be swinging there for an hour or until the police come." Kaine offered seeing that he was annoyed at himself for what happened, heck this had been dangerous for even one of the other web warriors, Obaara wasn't alone with making mistakes.
