------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | W E B O F V E N G E A N C E | | | | Rain poured down over the local Queens neighborhood. Sirens wailed in the | | distance. Smoke curled from the wreckage of a modest area home. | | | | Peter Parker stared at the body of Uncle Ben. Lifeless on the cracked | | concrete, the shield's impact still visible in the cratered wall behind him.| | | | Captain America stood tall above the scene, his uniform pristine, his voice | | cold. | | | | "He was draining this country. Living off the work of others. Collecting | | benefits and contributing nothing in return. He was old." | | | | Cap added confidently, "This was the only way. God bless America." | | | | Peter's fists trembled. This wasn't the Steve Rogers he admired. This was | | something twisted. Something broken. It had to end. | | | | With a snarl, Spiderman launched himself into the air, eyes burning red | | with rage. Cap moved fast but Peter was faster. So much faster. No quips. | | No hesitation. Only fury. | | | | The first punch pulverized a door. The second dented the vibranium shield. | | Cap parried with soldier's precision but there was very little he could | | realistically do against someone with Peter's strength and quickness. | | | | He feigned high, webbed Cap's boots to the street, and flipped overhead - | | landing a brutal kick that sent Cap sprawling through a taxi. | | | | "You killed him," Peter growled, standing over the legend while punching Cap| | repeatedly with the force equivalent to sledgehammers breaking concrete. | | | | "For what?" Peter yelled! "For ideals you don't even understand anymore?" | | | | Cap attempted to toss his shield in one final gasp of hope but Peter caught | | it mid-air. His fingers dug into it like claws. "This isn't justice. It's | | murder." | | | | With a scream, Peter slammed the shield down - shattering the concrete as | | Cap's broken body rolled to the side... barely hanging on to life. | | | | Blood stained the red, white and blue... of Captain America's uniform. | | | | As S.H.I.E.L.D. drones swarmed in, Peter vanished into the night, leaving | | Cap lying limp in the ruins of his new-found ideology. Uncle Ben's last | | lesson echoed in his ears. | | | | "With great power... comes no mercy for the wicked." | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | A ChatGPT prompt response. 75% is ChatGPT.
