Chapter Text
In the Playground which had been serving as the secret headquarters of SHIELD since its rebirth. Director Phil Coulson and Melinda May had gathered agents Mack, Daisy Johnson, Lincoln Campbell, Lance Hunter, Bobbi Morse, Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons (aka Fitzsimmons) to Coulson's office.
"Now I have gathered you here because May and I have found reports of a possible Inhuman, now here is the interesting thing about this one..." as Coulson told them which piqued their interest. "It seems that this one seemed to have gotten used to his powers on his own and the Avengers must have inspired him to put his own costume together." Coulson finished saying, which got them amazed about this.
"There have been sightings of this guy for six months but with everything else and all the other Inhumans plus HYDRA we have not had the time to try and track this one down, here are videos that have been posted online since then." May said to them as the screen showed them videos.
Of someone in a red mask goggles, a red and blue homemade suit with a black spider on it. A video showed him sling away using some sort of web and trip over a guy who was trying to get into a car. One showed him leap in front of a car which was about to collide into a bus and then leap away which had their jaws open.
"... That is amazing, the suit is pretty pathetic but the strength and agility of this guy plus whatever this web is..." Jemma said looking like she was lost for words along with Fitz.
"Well what does this guy call himself, Captain Spider, the Human Spider or the Arachnid?" Hunter questioned but Bobbi just gave him a look. "Look I know his powers look cool but from his suit I doubt he picked himself a good name." Hunter told her sternly.
"This is just what we need, showing the world that they do not have to fear the Inhumans. That with time we can all do good like the Avengers. I wonder why more awakened Inhumans did not think of trying to play superhero themselves." Daisy said out loud reminded of when she first met Mike Peterson.
"Well Jiaying was not fond of the Avengers, thought she brought too much attention to us Inhumans." Lincoln told them. "Some of us did think about using our powers more openly in the public but we all decided it would be best to stay hidden but of course that is out of the window." Lincoln told everyone again.
"Well we should see if we can track this new superhero down, whoever he is. Sightings have been found in Queens and Manhattan, New York. Daisy, I want to send you and Lincoln to search New York and question certain people who reported sightings of this guy. Hunter and Bobbi will act as backup." Coulson told them who nodded but stopped them from going. "But be careful, should you reveal your powers without gaining his trust first, might give the wrong idea and thinking you're villains." Coulson warned them and they nodded in understanding. May then gave them details of people who reported sightings of this new guy.
A few hours later
Daisy and Hunter were walking through an apartment, "I never thought I would have to come to him again..." Daisy muttered as they entered through a room door which took them to a room where a man was seated on the computer and there was a poster of the Rising Tide on the wall. "Hobie, Hobie Brown." Daisy told the man who jumped before seeing them.
"Skye, I never thought I would actually see you again since you jumped ship to SHIELD, I heard rumors that you were involved and why no one has heard from Miles. Plus some other members said you asked for their help with deciphering some writings and Micro said you wanted help with finding murder victims." Hobie said to Daisy in a disapproving tone. "So this is one of your SHIELD buddies, I thought you would have come back to us once everyone found out they were basically ran by a Nazi splinter organization." Hobie told them to which Daisy grew frustrated.
"They infiltrated us and SHIELD was full of good people and still are, we have been rebuilding SHIELD from the ground up. This is Hunter and I go by Daisy now Hobie." Daisy told him sternly to which he just shrugged. "Anyway, we need your help with something. We want to talk to you about this video you posted..." Daisy said showing him one of the videos of the masked man.
"...yes someone like the Avengers or that ant guy who fought the Falcon at the Avengers Facility. I saw him catching someone falling from a window, and put him down and he was already swinging away by the time I got my phone out so that was all that I could film..." Hobie told the two before walking up to them. "The government will probably cover it up like how lots more people with powers are showing up, the government saying they are alien terrorists but refusing to give us details. The Rising Tide, the Watchdogs and other groups all want answers Daisy and you can come back with us and we can expose it all." Hobie told them and Daisy gave Hunter a look showing that it was time for them to leave.
"Well thank you Hobie for your information and we will be going now." Hunter told him as they then left before Hobie could stop them. "Your friend seemed nice." Hunter told Daisy who just glared at him.
"Well I guess you don't want to hear about the old SHIELD compartment box here in New York that I got information about before it was taken by someone else..." Hobie yelled to them and they both paused before facing Hobie again. Daisy then went up to Hobie and gave him a stern look that said 'talk' and he just gulped.
Meanwhile
At the moment Lincoln and Bobbi had found the man for them to question about this new so called 'superhero'. "Excuse me Mr. Leeds." Bobbi ask Mr. Leeds as they stopped him and showed them their undercover badges. "We are with a national agency and we want to ask you some questions." Bobbi told him and Mr. Leeds looked a bit worried.
"Don't worry, you are not in trouble but we want to question you about this individual." Lincoln said and showing his phone a video taken of the man but paused with the close up of his mask and goggles. "We understand you witnessed and reported a sighting of this individual, can you please describe it for us." Lincoln asked and Mr. Leeds took a deep breath.
"Well... I guess I can explain it, it happened less than a month ago but I still remember it. I was driving back home from work when there was a problem with my engine, I went out to see what was wrong when I heard sounds coming from a local alley. I saw some men mugging a man about wanting some information or something I can't remember. I shouted for the police and they looked at me, but then I saw him jumping into the alleyway out of thin air seemingly." Mr. Leeds told them and this caused Lincoln and Bobbi to share a look.
"I know his suit was nothing special, like someone stitched together a suit for a party but he was... sensational ...amazing... spectacular..." Mr. Leeds told them causing more shock from the two SHIELD agents. "These men were big and tough looking and the guy did not look like he could fight for his size but you should have seen him, he dodged every one of their attacks as if he knew they were going to happen and he knocked them all out as if they were dominos, he then just web swinged away as the police came. I guessed he just wanted to be a friendly neighborhood hero." Mr. Leeds told them.
"Well thank you for that." Lincoln told him and he left with Bobbi, "I don't believe it, in Afterlife even the quickest learners once underwent Terrigenesis took some time to fully master their powers. This guy done so enough to put together his own costume and play hero, especially since he done so without any training." Lincoln whispered to Bobbi amazed and not sure what to think.
"Well let's keep at it and if we don't find any other clue, let's report to Coulson." Bobbi told Lincoln and they then walked away. while this was happening Mr. Leeds went over to the school area and picked up his son Ned who was watching with Peter and Michelle.
"Hmm, some guys in suits after that masked man from the internet, it's cool that Queens might have its own superhero. Like that Daredevil in Hell's kitchen, Luke Cage in Harlem or that Hooded Hero who appeared a few years back but disappeared. What do you think Peter?" Michelle asked Peter but looked concerned when she saw what his face was like. "Is something the wrong Peter?" Michelle asked concerned and Peter just gave her a smile and said he needed to get home.
As he ran home Peter thought to himself "Guys in a national agency are after me? Fuck, I'm screw."
