SPIDER-MAN

Chapter 74: 74) See The Light



Vulcan lifted his arm towards Peter and before he could do anything Iceman beamed a ray fice at Vulcan, pushing him back.

Vulcan used his eye beams towards Iceman who erected a wall of Ice as Captheld his shield tight between the wall and Iceman. The attack easily vapourised past the blockade, fortunately being blocked by Capt.

Iceman slid out of the cover and countered with his own beam pushing Vulcan back again. As Vulcan raised his arm again a flying kick slammed into his cheek and crouched on the wall was Spider Man.

Vulcan fired beams of energy towards him from his hands and eyes, while Peter jumped over him. As Peter landed a spike fice erupted from the ground piercing through his skin.

Vulcan smashed it to pieces tearing the part stuck in his flesh out, throwing it towards a charging Peter who dodged out the way unable to avoid the hook to his stomach. As Peter was tumbling on the ground Capt's shield smashed into Vulcan's head, ricocheting back to his hands.

Vulcan stomped forwards before lifting up a nearby car and throwing it towards the two. Iceman disappeared into the sheet of ice below him as the car slammed into Capt.

Iceman appeared from his sheet of Ice with a large pillar of it held above him before slamming downwards at Vulcan. Vulcan used his arms to guard himself as the pillar of ice slammed and shattered onto him.

Vulcan was prepared to counter before a shield smashed his face yet again as Capt stood on the wrecked car. Blood oozed from his nose and dribbled from his mouth, but no matter how bloodied or bruised he was Capt stood proud and powerful.

Sheets of ice appeared beneath Vulcan's feet and across the building wall next to him. From the icey wall a pair of hands exuded firing a beam of ice propelling Vulcan to the middle of the road.

Vulcan looked towards the long road,hearing the sounds of a speeding black car with Hawkeye behind the wheel. "This is such a bad plan!" exclaimed Hawkeye as he witnessed Vulcan's eye glow as he drove closer.

From Vulcan's shadow two arms rose up, both welding daggers and slicing his leg tendons causing Valian too drop to his knees. Rising up was Shadow swinging a dagger towards Vulcan's neck, the blade only slightly piercing his skin as Vulcan grabbed the dagger.

Vulcan elbowed Shadow, taking away her dagger and throwing it towards Iceman crashing through his chest. Vulkan turned, hooking Shadow, sending her crashing into the wall.

Vulcan looked back towards Hawkeye as he crashed his car into him. Vulcan grabbed the car as his feet dug up the concrete as he slid slowly backwards gripping car with all his might engraving his hand marks on the metal before swinging it behind him.

"FUCK SAKE!" yelled Hawkeye as his car started diving head first down.

"I GOT YOU!" Yelled Peter in response, positioning himself under the car, catching it. Peter yelled as he used all of his remaining strength to safely place it back to the ground.

Vulcan looked around him, surrounded by Superheroes and even if he wanted to pretend it was false he could feel his powers nearly drained. He realised that it was over at least for him.

"It ends here, Vulcan! Surrender and I'll promise that you'll remain unharmed along with all serving members of your group however you will be punished for all your harm." said Peter.

"What? You don't have the authority to make that decision! He's a terrorist who planned to drive humanity into a mutant dictatorship after mass murder. Sorry kid but not everyone deserves a second chance, this isn't a fairytale." argued Capt.

"Do you know what was done to them? You think they haven't tried the peaceful route?" responded Peter.

"They had that chance! Magneto attacked us first, if he would've let go of his ego we could've agreed on terms." replied Capt.

"Terms? What Terms? Most of these mutants where made through torture and inhumane experiments! We should've just let them live their lives, lives that they had stripped from them. Did you even listen to their story?" asked Peter.

"There's nothing to hear! As we all know mass murdering terrorists never lie, grow up! Vulcan is a threat and must be nutrallised." replied Capt.

"You can't see past the shell can you? Each and everyone where scared. Terrified. All their lives they were scared. Quicksilver was just like them, what makes him different? He had someone who cared for him save him! Not everyone is that lucky. Imagine if magneto saved him, he would fought against us today." retorted Peter.

Vulcan looked at Peter, confused. Why was he doing all this for us, after I even killed his friend? The fire in soul that raged for so long finally started dampen. He looked up to the sky, finally seeing the light that he hasn't seen for so long.

"They didn't have to follow his footsteps! Everyone has a choice and they chose this! Instead of looking for change and peace they only saw violence and refused to keep looking. I'm sorry for what happened to them, but i'm also sorry for the lives lost today." said Capt.

"Kill Me! but please at least help the rest, they shouldn't be punished for my anger." begged Vulcan.

Capt was taken aback.

"No need to apologise! It's my cross to bear not yours Vulcan." said a voice, walking towards them.

"Who are you?" asked Capt.

"Dr. Franklin. I'm the guy in the chair, I think you call it. I was also the one of the scientist in charge of the superhuman program and worked at the facility Vulcan and his friends where held." replied Franklin

"No! This isn't your fault!" Yelled Vulcan.

"It's ok." reassured Franklin before looking back at Capt. " Before you sentance us Captain, I would like to tell you the full story from our view. At least allow us that." asked Franklin.

Capt was hesitant. "Alright, I'll listen to you." replied Capt.
