Spiderman groaned in pain as he slowly stood up. " Man I think I just broke some ribs." He coughed as he stood up, grabbing his side.
Avatar suddenly appeared near him, and Spiderman noticed he was becoming cold. He looked at his leg- "Shit I'm freezing!" Spiderman screamed, when he noticed his leg was slowly resembling an organic popsicle. He tried to run but he feared be might lose his legs.
" Avatar, listen -"
" Oh here we go again! Spiderman, you are a soft hearted fool, and let's see how that's helps you."
The ice slowly melted and Spiderman rushed towards him, throwing a punch. But the ground suddenly moved and grabbed his leg, but he was moving too fast.
—crack—
His leg broke.
"Aaahhhh!" Spiderman screamed in pain. His leg hurt terribly, and it had twisted into a weird angle.
The evening wind blew slowly as Spiderman fell.
Suddenly, a large rock hammer formed itself above his other leg.
The rock hammer slammed itself self on Spiderman's leg, causing the wall crawling hero to scream in pain.
Soon, the once quiet streets now became busy as people came out to witness what seemed like the end of Spiderman.
They prayed, hoped, and went on Live streams.
He was lifted up by the wind, and smashed continuously on the floor, like I usually do to my sister's dolls. Some children began crying, and looked away because of how pathetic Spiderman looked.
And then, Avatar had an idea, as a twisted smile appeared on his face.
" Let's see how you'll protect your precious people now, Spidey!" Avatar yelled, cackling like a mad man.
" Whatever you're thinking Avatar, do not do it!" Spiderman yelled, barely staying conscious.
Avatar smiled as he raised his hand forward, pointing at a large building, it's occupants present.
The building slowly levitated, causing a mini earthquake.
Spiderman struggled to raise his head. He knew he would heal, but he won't heal fast enough. He had never felt this powerless before.
The building soon left the ground, leaving a large hole.
And to the horror of everyone, the building slowly shrinked, like someone was moulding it into a round shape.
The occupants screamed in horror, as the space inside became smaller every second. Soon, they were all screaming for Spiderman. Little did they know that the hero was on the verge of meeting his ancestors.
The horror became even worse, when blood began flowing from the building, and very loud screams were heard. Even the sound of bones breaking became rampant. The civilians outside screamed and cried, begging Avatar to stop, but their plea made him want to do even more.
Soon, the large building now looked like a large ball, and the screams had ended, all that was left was a large pool of blood.
And then something in Spiderman snapped.
He saw a man, a dead man. He saw Peter Parker. But Peter looked extremely disappointed in him. Spiderman frowned, was it because he held back? Was it because he refused to mortally wound his enemies? Was it because of his moral code? Well he was done.
He felt dizzy. He was confused. He was gone.
Slowly Spiderman stood up, much to the surprise of Avatar.
"You should be dead!"
Spiderman staggered forward like a deranged zombie, each movement lingered with unspoken hatred.
Avatar rushed forward, coating his arm in fire.
He threw his fiery punch at Spiderman, which the latter dodged with a simple head tilt.
With waving steps, he moved closer and closer, constantly evading Avatar's attacks.
A heavy punch hit the Avatar, sending him flying. Spiderman jumped towards him, easily covering the distance.
Avatar struggled to stand but a stomp from Spiderman sent him even deeper into the ground, making the master of all elements cough out blood.
Spiderman grabbed his head, and smashed it on the ground repeatedly.
He kicked the battered villian away, causing the latter to crash into a hard concrete wall. And then another round of punches came. Each one heavier than the last, each punch carrying emotions.
Now the civilians looked at Spiderman in fear, as they all slowly stepped back.
He punched and punched, till Avatar's head cracked and some part of his brain came out.
Then Spiderman grabbed Avatar's head, and with a strong pull, beheaded him with his bare hands.
That was the last straw. Everyone ran away in utter fear. They hadn't seen Spiderman kill before. He didn't say a word, no condolences to the grieving, he just swung away with the corpse of the villian.
(NEXT DAY)
***OSCORP***
MEDICAL FACILITY
Caldeus stood up from his bed in his ward. Gwen was startled seeing him walk outside. Norman was aware the fact that she knew his identity as Spiderman, so he hired her.
"Caldeus, where are you going? The doctor said you have 54 broken bones and several internal injuries!"
"Good, so it means I have 152 functioning ones." He replied walking forward. Gwen ran after him and grabbed his hand.
"Caldeus, if you ever want talk about what happened I'm always here."
" It's fine," he replied, pulling his hand away." Avatar crossed the line. I know I killed a man but that shouldn't rattle me. And from this moment, any criminal I see, a vilian or just a regular pickpocket, they'll all die. I'm done sparing them. I'm not Peter Parker, I'm Caldeus-"
"Shut up!" Gwen screamed crying, "can you hear yourself! You ripped out the head of a man! In front of the whole city -"
"That man killed alot of people, in front of the 'whole city'. Who did you see complain?"
"He was a villian. But you are a hero, you are Spiderman!"
Caldeus scoffed, "I'm the superior Spiderman."
**DAYS LATER**
And true to his words Caldeus brought terror to the evil doers. Thieves didn't feel like stealing anymore, after watching their colleagues get beaten to death, bank robbers even started menial jobs. Because everyone feared the Spiderman's wrath. He didn't wait for danger, he hunted it like a lion. No more waiting for Spiderman, it seemed like he knew exactly where the crime was to take place.
He swung to his house, and entered through the window.
"What're you doing here Gwen Stacy?" He asked, not even glancing at her.
"Caldeus, you haven't slept have you?"
"What do you want?"
"You don't sleep, you barely eat, do you even bathe?"
"Ask me one more question and I'm sending you out."
"Hey! It's me Gwen! You're scaring me Caldeus. Everyday I look at you and I can't even tell who you are! This is not you, this is not Caldeus. Please, I know you're still in there, come back to me." She said sobbing, as she pulled him closed and hugged him.
"Gwen."
"Yes?"
"I have to go, someone's in danger."
*****
A lady was being attacked by three men in a dark alley.
"Hey lady! Give us all your money!"
"Make it snappy, we don't want the Spider demon to show up."
"Talking about me?" A voice said from behind.
The three hooligans tried to escape, but Spiderman caught them. He beat them terribly, and one died. Among the two survivors one became lame, and the other completely paralysed.
Even Dexter feared this version of the Spiderman. He didn't send any villian, and he paused his search for the Spider grid's batteries.
In just one week, the city became void of crime, something Peter Parker struggled to do in years.
Spiderman stood on a rooftop looking down at the city.
Since Dexter didn't wanna send more villian, he had decided to bring the heat to Dexter.
The broken hero had decided.
No more mercy.
