Pitta Noch

Inspired by this image vvv

What to expect:
- A probably bad portrayal of Natasha
- me, being uninspired but wanting to write something
- giant cats

The cats were losing, and for once it wasn't Peter's fault.

A brown tabby—large, even for the Pitta Nochs—clambered upon the roof of a skyscraper. It's eyes scanned the scene and Peter ducked low to avoid it's gaze.

It yowled loudly and a woman in black clothes swung onto the back of the giant cat. This meant Peter should probably go, but his feet stayed rooted.

The tabby and it's rider came closer and closer to where Peter was hiding, and he hoped they would just pass by. Too much to hope for, he supposed.

"You should have left when you had the chance, Young Spider," hissed the voice of Natasha Romanoff.

Peter sighed as the famous Noch Jidre slid from her mount. Natasha Romanoff—only the most ferocious fighter on the side of the Cats—of more specifically, a genetically engineered breed of giant cats called Pitta Nochs.

"Heh, well," Peter said, his voice growing dark, "maybe I waited on purpose."

"What, a trap? You can't seriously expect me to believe-"

Natasha's mount yowled as a bright Pitta Noch bowled into it.

With wide eyes Natasha pulled a knife and thrust it at the new arrival. Natasha's tabby was knocked from the building and the light grey cat remained.

The grey Pitta Noch hissed at Natasha and Peter raced over to it, leaping onto it's back. "Look Natasha," Peter said, "this time, I promise it wasn't me."

"Right," Natasha hissed, "the Cats face an enemy and it isn't you?"

"You have to trust me—"

"Why should I! You never take off your mask, and you obviously use a voice changer—you sound far to young to be the Cats greatest enemy!"

Peter paused at that. Then he pulled in a long breath, let it out, and threw Natasha into an alleyway between buildings.

Peter's mount—the grey one, named Katana—followed them into the alley. Peter grabbed Natasha's wrist and dragged her into a corner behind a dumpster.

Natasha tried to jerk away, but Peter was strong enough to keep her where she was.

Peter shifted slowly and his hand moved to his mask. Making sure he had Natasha's attention, he pulled it off.

Her eyes slowly widened. "Young Spider..."

"Yeah, I'm a kid. I have superpowers, and I can talk to Spiders. For some reason, these giant spiders—probably from the same scientists that created the Pitta Nochs—declared me their king and wanted to take over the world."

Peter paused before continuing. "So anyway, I also figured out how to talk to Pitta Nochs."

"I-" Natasha cut herself off. "Sorry."

"What for?"

"Fighting you."

Peter nodded. "I would have fought me too."

Natasha smiled as the kid went on talking about the spider's plans and how to defeat them. Peter noticed her staring and asked about it.

Her smile grew to a grin.

"Can I call you Baby Spider?"
