Honey Bearger Don't Care

WHO: Team Bearger, let's go!
WHERE: Somewhere close by the hospital. You know, for convenience sake.
WHAT: The Fight against Barry the Bearger
WHEN: AH! Real Monsters!
WARNINGS: Somewhere, a wall was sacrificed. It probably wasn't an important wall. also maybe some swearing and they are kinda fighting a monster.

Anyone that happens to be crossing by will see a blur of khaki and gray as Peter goes sailing right past them. He slams back first into the concrete wall, the structure buckling under the pressure and kicking up a bunch of dust and smoke. Peter’s not even sure what exactly happened as he blinks up at a ceiling above him. Wasn’t he just outside?

He’s been back for less than an hour and already he’s had a slight panic attack about nothing in particular, other thought several things, got attacked by a monster as a wake up call (not his favorite), used up most of his remaining web fluid, and got knocked into a wall.

Needless to say; he’s having a rough day.

He sucks in a breath and shakes off the dizziness to quickly reorientate himself and gets back up on his feet. He’s a little stiff for a moment-that impact is definitely going to leave several bruises that he’s sure are going to suck.

“Hey man, no fair! I wasn’t ready!” He calls out the thing that knocked him into the wall- that thing being a giant monster that looks much like a cross between a Badger and a Bear. He checks his webfluid levels for a brief moment and fires one to pull himself back into the fray.

"Seriously? 'No Fair'? This thing doesn't seem to have language and you're complaining about fairness?"

Truly he's a Young Avenger at heart.

Speaking of Young Avengers, here was Tommy clearly. First on scene, sorta, since the thing was a menace. The shockwaves, though, they were a serious problem. The ground here was a mess already, and it was tripping him up. Even he couldn't always see shockwaves coming.

"We need more than just us, Spidey. Think I should try and fetch help?"

Cal's no speedster, but at least he's built up enough stamina running and climbing and jumping around in his recent travels that he's not terribly winded when he finally gets to where the trouble is. BD-1 clings to his back, beeping his amazement once the creature comes into better view.

"Yeah, that guy is pretty big," the Jedi has to admit. "Bigger than or about the same as that chirodactyl?"

A hooting response.

"Yeah, thought so."

In spite of things, Cal's feeling pretty relaxed. It feels kind of good to be able to go up against some giant creature again- which he figures might be weird but he'd rather that than a Sith lord any day, really.

"Sorry I'm late!" he calls out as he catches sight of the other two, taking in the situation. He directs himself towards one of the lower buildings, vaulting towards it to plant his foot firmly enough for the Force-aided leap he takes onto the roof itself and then across to the next building. He stops at the ledge, trying to assess the creature's movements as he pulls his lightsaber from his belt, not yet igniting it.

"We got anything big we can potentially use as projectiles?"

"He saw I wasn't looking!" Peter insists as he gets to higher ground to get a better vantage point. He glances around to make sure no one is too close to the mess and her comes Cal, someone Peter's never really met in person so this is fun for him.

"The broken wall might work?" He offers before firing his webs down to the pile of rubble, snagging a particularly large slab of concrete and swinging it up to slam into the rampaging monster.

"Yup! It works! A bigger team might help more, though." Not that Peter doesn't think they can handle it but there might end up being a lot of property damage as their tends to be during these kinds of fights. That, and he's got maybe one or two shots of webfluid left.

"Caliente!" Tommy cheers gratefully at the Jedi's arrival. That shiny sword might really help, as it could get through things pretty well. But damn those Force jumps almost make Tommy feel like he's nothing here. Stupid people being able to jump so great when he can't.

"Peter's a projectile!" he shouts out as he keeps dancing around the thing's feet to keep it distracted.

Of course Peter might be most effective against walls.

"Don't know if we have the numbers for that request- not if there's others to be dealt with," Cal notes. He tosses Tommy a quick two-fingered salute and a crooked grin.

"Not questioning Peter's durability, but I think it's better we stick to broken walls."

He looks towards the chunks that break off from the portion that their resident webslinger had flung at the beast, extending his free hand towards them, his fingers tensed. As they lift into the air, he gestures sharply as though yanking them as he pulls his arm across him, sending the blocks of concrete flying into the bearger.

"Am not!" Peter denies, ignoring that he just recently tried to catapult himself into the monster. That has nothing to do with the argument.

"We gotta knock it off balance-then it might not be able to do that shockwave thing." If he gets hit with that it's probably gonna wreck him and he'd rather not. He grabs another piece of broken wall with his webs and swings it in the Bearger's way.

"Watched you projectile," Tommy shouted up. Don't tell him no, he knew he was right.

Seriously though, how was a poor speedster supposed to keep up with things like those two were doing? He couldn't just throw things. He could throw lots of power into them with his speed, but he was down here, and yeah.

"I'll try and keep it from dodging..."

And then, after a minute, a new thought had come into his head. Oh this was going to be a bad choice. But fuck it, he was gonna ride a bearger.

A snap-hiss and Cal's lightsaber comes to life, one end blazing blue- and then the other end extending amber. He gives the double-headed weapon a humming spin, and he can feel the boost once the power runs through the crystal he'd long ago acquired from the beachfront caves.

Behind him, BD-1 beeped encouragingly, and Cal knows his little buddy's feeling the extra 'oomph' from the thing as well. He grins and then hurls the lightsaber at the bearger, a spinning, glowing disk, right after Peter's wall slinging.

The Jedi isn't long in following after, leaping from the roof towards the bearger's head, even as his lightsaber spins and he arcs it around so he can grab it again.

The Bearger does not appear to enjoy having a passenger, from what Peter can see. And then he's immediately distracted because-omigosh that a real light saber and this is suddenly the coolest day of his life.

"That's so co-"

He's not paying enough attention to the Bearger though because it gets him good with a harsh swipe, throwing him into yet another wall that breaks under the impact and oh man, those sucky bruises are gonna suck so much worse now.

he finds himself dazed as he sits up from the rubble-he must have hit his head but he can't stay down too long. He fires his webs to get back to higher ground as a shockwave starts his way and-

Nothing.

It takes him a half second to realize he's out of webfluid and then he frowns as there is no time for him get away in time. This is gonna suck.

Okay, that's a serious glow sword upgrade, and just seeing it makes Tommy laugh. He's gone from the fight for half a second to fetch his lightsaber toy that the Agrii had left them. And yes he knows he can't do any real damage with it, but dammit he's hitting the thing in the leg with it and listening to the noises for the second.

Let him have his gags. Cal gets to be cool and the actual monster slayer, and Peter can be David versus goliath. Tommy's just gonna be here Deadpooling it. Until, that is, he sees Peter getting hit off of his perch.

Tommy curses and he's moving. He knows a shockwave is coming and he catches Peter up in his arms, carrying him away. Takes nothing to get them going up the side of the building. Gotta get a spider high.

He wasn't expecting the building to shake enough for him to lose his footing. And now they were falling. Yep, that's great.

Funny thing is Cal's had it for a while now, here. There's just never been the need to really use it to this degree.

"Peter, watch it-!" he starts to call out as he hangs on, wincing as the webslinger goes flying again. It's kind of amazing how durable the other kid is, but that's still gotta be painful.

At least Tommy's there to help with the recovery, but it seems they're both in a fix when the speedster's footing slips.

The Jedi doesn't even think twice as he holds his lightsaber-armed hand out, two fingers extended as it helps him direct his focus. He can only catch them midfall, but hopefully it'll make it easier for them to get their feet under them. Otherwise he's kind of got his own hands full just trying to hang onto the creature.

...something tells you he's been on the backs of huge monsters before.

Peter braces for the impact but the next thing he knows, he's up on the roof again-or he was. It seems this rescue attempt is falling flat. And then they're not falling. Two rescues in less than a minute. That's a little embarrassing.

He squirms to get back on his own feet to take stock of the situation. That being that he's completely out of webfluid so there's very limited options for what he can do to help at this point besides maybe punch it really hard.

"So... I might have just used the last of my webfluid. Any ideas?" He asks Tommy, pressing down on the button that would allow him to shoot his webs if he had any left.

"Ceaseless Watcher!" The sky turning dark is the only thing announcing the Archivist's arrival at the scene. Static crackles in the air with every word he speaks, his voice layered and distorted in and around itself. He sets his wide, green glowing eyes on the monster attacking the city and the sky above blinks open.

Jon may be late to the party, but that doesn't mean that he isn't set on defending the city just like everyone else. Even though his methods are maybe less heroic than those of his friends.

He raises a hand towards the Bearger. "Turn your gaze upon this wretched thing!"

Following that command the massive eye above glows up and fires a blast of energy shoots down onto the monster. It's enough to make the monster roar in pain, it's own voice tearing and fraying at the edges along with its very existence. But then the eye up above blinks and the attack suddenly stops, leaving the monster charred but far from beaten and very much able to recover from the blast.

Jon frowns in response, looking up from the Bearger towards the eye only to scowl at it and mutter under his breath. "You must be kidding me."

Listen don't mock him for losing his footing. Tommy HATES falling and he's very distressed. Cal's save is a literal fucking relief and helps him deal with panic. It's something. It's good. It's...

Absolutely upstaged by Peter's comment.

"Seriously? Dude, what the hell? Okay, let's see if we can't try a Fastball Special and-"

Then the voice rips through the air and Tommy grins. Fuck yes. Scary bro is inbound to fucking help. HE turns to watch and...

"Oh come on!"

"Uh-oh."

Cal doesn't like the feeling that comes with the voice's intonation, nor the darkening skies. That sense of danger only grows, and he glances up at the horrifying eye above as BD-1 squeals in alarm.

"-time to abandon ship!"

The Jedi pushes back from the bearger, flipping backwards just split seconds before the sky rains down chaos on the creature. He lands neatly on the ground, looking up as he half expects the thing to be falling after him. A blast like that should've taken something that big out, right?

"Guess we're not done yet, guys," he says as he stands again.

Peter is looking real sheepish up, about to explain that he couldn't just make more here but his own thoughts are a little derailed as Jon's voice sounds loud and- well that's one way to deal with the monster.

"Are you kidding!?" Peter manages at the same time as Tommy's outburst. He glances around for something he can use but there's not a lot of options. He hops off the roof and grabs hold of the wall before watching the creature a moment and then uses the wall to push off and gain momentum to aim a kick directly at the Bearger.

His aim is true at least, but there is the problem of kicking a giant monster that can swat him like a fly or, in his case, a spider.

He is once again acquainted with the wall.

"This has got to stop happening." He manages, peeling himself away from the Peter sized indent now in the concrete.

There is another claw spite vaguely aimed in Jon's direction who is lucky enough to still be far enough away that he can leap away from the hit with a startled shriek. Of course he would survive taking the hit, but he still had to suffer the pain and actually healing through any potential injury.

"Christ, you had ONE JOB!" He snarls at no one in particular while scrambling away further. "Tommy, what IS that thing?!" And more importantly why can't he smite it? Are his own powers malfunctioning? Is the Eye refusing to do as it is told? It shouldn't be able to comprehend what's going on in the first place.

Yeah, sorry Peter, Tommy would have caught you but he hadn't thought you would have that happen again. He's about to tag you out, genius spidey. Oh well, his job is in helping people out here.

When Jon asks Tommy's there in the blink of an eye, standing by him and shrugging. It's not a fight against a monster if he isn't sassing some. It's his job as speedster.

"It's a bear. It's a badger. It's a giant. It's CLEARLY a Gigbadear!"

He's also not allowed to name things. This has been previously established.

"Do you need to be closer to do that again? Hold on."

Then he's blurring toward Cal.

"Dude, how deep can that blade of yours pierce and would it help if I got you back up there?"

"-is he all right??"

Cal looks over where Peter's once again been flattened. He feels BD-1 leave his back, skittering over towards the dazed spider-guy to offer him a healing stim.

"He's helping-" he explains as the little bipedal droid hoots up at Peter before a little slot opens up to shoot out a small injector vial.

"Wait, you don't know what it is either, Jon?" That's news. Isn't it his job?

The Jedi looks at Tommy as he senses the speedster's approach. "Giga-wha?" he asks dryly. "Yeah, not naming it that." But right, onto more important things. He looks back up at the creature.

"Pretty deep, and I don't think that hide's made of durasteel. Let's do it."

Peter's.. managing. He's pretty sure he's bruised a rib or two and feels like he just got smashed into a brick wall but there's no way in hell he's about to take the injector no matter how cute he things BD-1 is. He'll just heal up in a few hours anyway. "Uh.. thanks but no thanks."

He waves it off and glances down at the webshooters that currently encase the empty cartridges. The thing he's most upset about it that his webfluid ran out exactly when it did. He knew that it would ruin out eventually but right now?

He's not even sure if he can make more without the proper ingredients. Like this, there's not a whole lot he can do to help. Something doesn't feel right though, as hard as they've come at it, surely it would've been knocked off balance by now? Either it's got a perfect equilibrium or something's not right.

He hops back up and moves over to where Jon is, looking very much like he was recently thrown through two walls and smashed against a third but that's not important right not.

"Hey Mis-um-Jon, are you able to-do you know why this thing is so hard to knock over?

Jon is still busy frowning at Tommy's response to his question when he has to shake his head at both questions directed at him. "No. No I don't." And it almost feels like he isn't permitted to know anything specific about this creature. "But I know that there are more than just this one. And that they are being fought by others."

His focus settles strictly on Peter then. "And I know that you're injured. Please be careful. As you may have noticed, the hospital currently is under sttack by a giant--" Jon waves a hand towards the Bearger. "-whatever this is."

"Gigbadear," Tommy shouts when Jon says 'whatever this is'. But his mission is clear.

"Definitely Gigbadear," he insists as he wraps an arm around Cal. "Please don't turn the light stick on while I'm carrying you. I like my limbs."

AS for Peter and Jon, they have to deal with their own shit while Tommy carries Cal back up onto the creature's back.

BD-1 beeps and then runs back over to Cal, leaping up to take his usual position on the Jedi's back, just before Tommy gets ready to take them up.

"That makes two of us. Don't worry, I'm a professional." Cal gives the speedster a nod before they take off for the tower of...yeah, he's still not calling it that.

He gets himself ready to move once they're high enough, or to respond if the big creature realizes it's being climbed again.

"That's weird." Peter comments to the idea of Jon not bein allowed know about the monster. He files that information aware to worry about later when he gets called out on being injured and takes a defensive step back.

"I'm fine-it only hurts a little-well a lot. But it'll heal." He assures the older man and then, at the opportunity for a subject change he shouts over to Tommy.

"I've just been calling him Barry! And ya know, good luck. Guess I'll just sit over here and offer moral support?" Since he can't do much else without his webbing.

Edited 2023-04-29 04:34 (UTC)

Jon scoffs lightly. "It's hardly weird to me at this point. They love messing with our powers, remember?" He points out, but his scowl deepens. "But this is the first time Beholding refuses my commands. That seemed almost... Purposely."

Since neither of them currently seem in much of a position to do any damage to that thing, Jon grabs Peter by the arm and pulls him away a little further, at the very least trying to watch where that bear creature is going.

"Anyway, Peter. Welcoe back!"

"Yeah man," Tommy shouts to Jon. "Let's all have a cuddle party with Peter. AFTER."

Tommy scoops Cal up into his arms, backs up, and then just runs up the thing's leg. Which isn't easy with it moving, But he's doing his best. At one point around a shoulder blade he has to stop, free hand tangled into the fur.

"That's as far as the elevator goes, Caliente."

Up they go!

This'll be the second time he's been carried like this around here, not that he intends to get used to it any time soon.

"Thanks for the lift. I can take it from here," Cal says, nodding at Tommy then. It is not an easy position to get anywhere, but thankfully that's where the Force comes in really handy.

The Jedi practically flies out of the speedster's grasp, directly into a leap propelled by seemingly nothing. The double-blades of his lightsaber thrum to life as he flips around, and as he falls towards the bearger's head, he gives separates both halves with a twist and a pull.

Bearing one blade in each hand, blue and amber, Cal gives them both a spin to reverse his grip as he brings them both down upon his landing, plunging them right into the creature's skull.

"Hey, what're-oh." Peter starts to protest as he's pulled away from the edge of the roof. He's still fairly certain the fact Jon can't do his thing is highly suspicious and they should probably look into that. "Yeah, It's good to be back- I mean it doesn't really feel like I was gone- you know what, this is not a great place for this."

He decides not to go into his usual rambling story mode as there is currently a monster attacking. He manages to look back just in time to see the light saber going right into Barry's skull and makes a face.

"That's both really cool, and really disturbing."
