Chapter 81: Kate Bishop
(Queens, New York. December, 2022. Y/N's age: 21)
Y/N's P.O.V
So, I've just finished work and I'm on my way back home.
I walk into the building and go up.
I go into mine and Harry's place.
Y/N: Hey, Harry. You here?
Harry: In here, bro.
I go into the kitchen.
Harry: How was work, honey?
I chuckle.
Y/N: It was good, thanks. How was your day off?
Harry: Pretty good. Oh, I've got some information that might interest you.
I sit down.
Y/N: Okay, what is it?
Harry: I got something on the Tracksuits.
Y/N: Holy shit. Are you serious?
Harry: Yep. Word on the street is that their planning on hitting a black market auction happening at the fund rasier that I'm going to tonight.
Y/N: Okay. Can you...?
Harry: Get you on the guest list? Already done. You're my plus one for the evening.
Y/N: Yes. Thank you.
Harry: Just doing my job as your guy in the chair.
Y/N: Again, I thank you.
Harry: Okay. Time to suit up. Just not in the way you normally do.
He shows me a suit to wear.
Y/N: Great. Let's do it.
We suit up and get ready for the fund rasier.
(One hour later)
Harry and I make it to the fund rasier.
We walk into the event hall.
Y/N: There's alot of people here.
Harry: Yeah. I'm guessing the auction hasn't happened yet. Otherwise these rich guys wouldn't be here.
Y/N: Good point.
Harry: Let's grab a drink. We got time to kill.
Harry and I go to the bar and get a drink.
I scan the room for any potential threats, as I do I spot a beautiful dark-haired girl in a red dress standing nearby.
Y/N: (Whispers) Wow.
Harry looks in the same direction.
Harry: She's pretty. Go talk to her.
Y/N: What? No, I'm on mission.
Harry: Go ahead. We've got time. Besides, It's time for you to get back out there after what happened Felicia.
I sigh.
Y/N: Good point.
I go over and talk to her.
Y/N: Hi there.
She looks at me.
???: Hi.
Y/N: I'm Y/N. Y/N Drake.
???: I'm Kate. Kate Bishop.
She and I shake hands.
Y/N: Okay, Kate Bishop. Let me guess. You're here, but you'd rather be anywhere else right now.
She sighs.
Kate: That's right. How'd you know?
Y/N: I'm good at reading people and I'm feeling the same way right now. Trust me.
She laughs.
Kate: So, why are you here then?
Y/N: I'm just here supporting a friend.
Kate: Does he just need you to stand here and look pretty?
I chuckle.
Y/N: Aw. You think I'm pretty?
She smiles.
Kate: I'm just saying that you look handsome.
I smile.
Y/N: Thanks. You look beautiful, if you don't mind me saying.
She smiles.
Kate: Thanks.
After talking for a few more minutes I see Harry giving me a signal. It's time to go.
Y/N: Sorry, I gotta go. So, do you maybe wanna...?
Kate: Yes! I mean, yeah. I'd like to go out with you.
I smile.
Y/N: Okay, great.
She writes down her number and gives it to me.
Kate: Here. Call me later.
Y/N: Will do, Katie. Sorry, if you didn't like that.
She smiles.
Kate: No, it's fine. I don't mind.
Y/N: Okay. I'll call you later, Kate.
I walk off to head down to the auction.
(Five minutes later)
So I use the vents and sneak down to the auction.
I crawl out of the vent and sneak around the wine racks.
The auction has just started.
I can't suit up. I don't wanna draw any attention to myself.
As the auction is happening I see that they have the Ronin suit and sword.
They must have gotten it from the ruins of the Avengers Compound.
I look over and see Kate is down here and she's been spotted.
Y/N: (Whispers) Oh shit.
I go over to help her.
Y/N: Hi, what seems to be the problem here?
I see that it's the boss man Gary.
Gary: Yes Mr. Drake. This girl is where she doesn't belong.
Y/N: Gary, this is my girlfriend. She's with me. She's here with Mr. Osborn and I. She just got a little lost.
I put my arm around her waist and she puts her around mine to play along.
Y/N: So, do we have a problem now?
Gary: No... no, Mr. Drake. Of course not. I apologise.
He walks away.
Kate: Thanks for the save.
Y/N: No problem. Now what are you doing down here, Kate?
Kate: I think my mum's fiancé is up to no good. Why are you down here?
Y/N: Let's just say, I have feeling that alot of people here are up to no good. It's a long story.
Kate: Got it. So...
Out of nowhere the wall blew up and smoke engulfed the room.
A moment later I see a group of men in tracksuits come inside.
It's the Tracksuit Mafia, they're here.
Y/N: Kate, run!
She runs off.
I then sneak off to suit up.
After that I come out and a few of them see me.
???: Spider-Man! Shoot him.
They shoot at me, but I dodge their shots.
I shoot out two web lines and pull a wine rack down on two of them.
I then web zip forward and take kick the last guy into the wall.
Once he's down I turn and see someone wearing the Ronin suit.
Y/N: What the hell?
My spider sense goes off and I look over to see one of them throw a grenade.
Y/N: Oh shit.
I use impact webbing to cover up the grenade and it stops the explosion.
Just then I see Lieutenant Yuri Watanabe come in with a squad of cops.
She immediately comes over to me.
Yuri: Spider-Man, are you okay?
Y/N: Yeah, I'm okay. I've had worse.
Yuri: What happened?
Y/N: There was a black market auction happening down here. The Tracksuit Mafia showed up and blasted a hole in the wall.
Yuri: Damn.
Y/N: One of 'em threw a grenade, but I managed to contain the blast.
Yuri: That's good.
Y/N: Look, I better go. I got some people to check in on.
Yuri: Okay. We'll handle this.
I nod and leave the building.
After that I web swing away.
Whoever is in that Ronin suit is in serious trouble.
I hope Kate got outta there unharmed.
