(I'm going to be honest, from what I've learned when writing this arc. I suck at writing fight scenes, and it's even harder when all the enemies are identical. Also, don't forget to comment. I love seeing comments, and it encourage me to write more.)
3rd Person POV
Gwen walked through the access hall, fear prominent on her face. Even though Leo told her to stay in the room, hidden and safe, she decided it would probably be safer if she left the building. If she had to guess, there's probably an emergency exit nearby.
Turning the corner, she found a fire exit door. Pushing it open, she stepped outside into daylight.
Where somebody immediately bumped into her. "Huh?" The alley was packed, dozens of people running through it.
"Gwen!" Somebody called out her name.
Within the crowd, Gwen spotted MJ stumbling through the crowd. Behind her, Ned and Harry.
After a couple seconds of pushing through the crowd, they eventually reached her.
"Where were you?" MJ asked as she grabbed Gwen by the shoulders.
"Have you seen Peter, or Leo? We've been looking for them, but we can't find them." Ned asked, worried.
"Uhmm." Gwen struggled to think up a lie. "Why is the alley so packed?" Instead, she changed the subject.
"After those things showed up, Peter's aunt, and Mr. Li started to evacuate everybody through the cafeteria's fire exit." Harry explained.
"I'm going up ahead, see if I can find Peter or Leo?" Ned told the group.
"Wait up!" MJ yelled as she followed Ned through the crowd.
Harry and Gwen glanced at each other, before following. As they approached the end of the alleyway, they began to hear sirens.
As they stepped out of the alley, they were greeted by a man with a rifle.
"Move, move!" A SWAT officer yelled at them, a rifle in hand.
Behind him, dozens of cops and SWAT officers could be seen blocking off the area. Setting up roadblocks, and preparing like they were going to war.
Gwen narrowed her eyes as she spotted her dad in the distance, wearing a helmet and bulletproof vest.
"Dad!" Gwen called out.
She pushed through the crowd, and toward him. A SWAT officer grabbed her by the shoulders, to which she responded with an elbow to the stomach.
"Let her through!" Captain George Stacy yelled as he jogged toward her.
"Dad." She embraced her father.
"Are you okay!?" They asked in unison.
Gwen went first. "I'm okay, Dad, what about you?"
"I'm alright, sweetie, you know me." He told her with a chuckle.
Gwen glanced at the small army of officers. "Are they all here for those things?"
"Things?" George asked in confusion. "Did you mean the shooters?"
Gwen frowned. "Dad, those things aren't normal! They, -umm -uhm." She struggled to think of something to say.
"Don't worry, sweetie." He cut her off. "We're trained for this, we can handle anything thrown at us."
The wall burst open, a figure flew through the air and slammed into a SWAT van.
"What is that?!"
"Hostile, Hostile!"
SWAT and police yelled as they aimed their gun at Leo in his Biomass form.
"L-" Gwen held her tongue, almost accidentally saying his name out loud.
Biomass pushed himself up. "If I were you, I would run." He told them.
The SWAT officer continued to aim his rifle. "Shut up you-!"
"What the hell is that?!" A cop yelled out as he watched what Leo called an Ultra Kriegstaffebot walk out of F.E.A.S.T.
"Fire!" A squad captain yelled as they raised their guns, and fired.
Despite being shot a dozen times, it stood there unphased. Instead, it raised its arm. An oddly shaped Gatling Gun popped out of its wrist.
It aimed at a group of officers, and prepared to fire.
At the last moment, a web line flew through the air and struck its hand, and yanked it to the side. A pencil missile shot out, engulfing a SWAT van in a fiery explosion.
"Take cover!" George yelled as he shoved Gwen away. "Get to safety!" He yelled at her.
The Ultra Kriegstaffebot grabbed the web line, and yanked. Peter flew through the air, and slammed into the rear window of the police car.
Before it could fire again, Biomass tackled it to the ground. He reeled back his fist back ready to punch its head in, only to be sent off flying as it kicked him off with ease.
It stood back up, and prepared to fire again. It slammed back into the ground as a screaming Luke Cage flew through the air, and slammed into its back.
Luke let out an annoyed sigh as he stood up, stepping out of F.E.A.S.T was a second Ultra Kriegstaffebot, Luke met it head on as he charged at it. Face to face, locking hands with it as they developed into a pushing game.
Luke glared and began to overpower, pushing back. Forcing its knee to buckle, and bend.
Only for the third Ultra Kriegstaffebot, to shoot a pencil missile right at his face. Luke choked, and coughed as smoke from the explosion filled his lungs.
Using the smoke as a distraction, it grabbed Luke and swung him around. Peter ducked as Luke flew over his head, and into a police car.
Luke, Peter, and Biomass grouped up.
"What happened to the two smaller ones?" Biomass asked.
"Crushed their cannons before they could fire, they blew up." Luke answered.
"What's the plan?" Peter asked.
"Web them up, and follow my lead." Biomass answered as he cracked his neck.
In unison, they charged at him. One of the Ultra Kriegstaffebots raised its arm, and prepared to fire another pencil missile.
At the last moment, Biomass slid across the ground and grabbed a manhole cover. With a wind-up spin, he chucked it like a frisbee.
The manhole cover met the missile head on as it fired, engulfing the Ultra Kriegstaffebots in an explosion.
They stumbled back, Peter began to rapidly fire his impact webs. Temporarily binding the other two, Biomass charged at the third.
With a wind punch, he struck its legs. Sending it falling face first, before it could get back. Biomass put it in a leg lock, keeping it pinned to the ground.
"Power Man! Stomp this thing!" Biomass yelled.
Luke let out an angry yell as he leapt into the air, and slammed down with all his weight and strength.
Its head crumbled from the impact, but he grabbed it by the head and ripped it off just to be safe.
"Umm, guys?!" Peter spoke in a worried tone, as his web shooter began to shoot empty. "I'm out of webs."
The Ultra Kriegstaffebot began to rip through the web formula, slowly breaking free.
"Now!" A group of officers fired, which did nothing but distract it.
One of The Ultra Kriegstaffebot broke free, and prepared to fire.
"Tackle it!" Biomass yelled.
Luke tackled it, pinning it to the ground.
Biomass ran towards them, picking up the now cracked manhole cover. He springboarded off Luke's back, and into the air.
He raised the manhole cover into the air, and slammed it down. Jamming it halfway through its face.
Two down, one left. Luke, Peter, and Biomass began to surround the last one.
"Attack it all at once, don't give it any breathing room!"He yelled out as they charged at it.
Peter struck it from the side, it retaliated with a sideswipe that knocked him back. Before it could retract its extended arm, Biomass grabbed it and put it in an arm lock.
It reeled its other fist back, ready to swipe him away. Only for Luke to grab, and hold its arm back.
Biomass raised the elbow, and slammed it down on the arm joint. It let out a crack, as whatever joint mechanism it had cracked.
Peter grabbed it from behind, Luke pulled back as Peter let out a grunt, and proceeded to suplex it.
Its wrist gun popped out as it tried to retaliate with another missile. Only for Luke to grab it, crushing it before it can fire.
Biomass wrapped his arms around its head, and began to pull. The metal started to creak, and shift. He let out a grunt, struggling.
"I got you!" Luke yelled as he stood above Biomass, grabbing its head as well. With a pull, they ripped its head off.
It rolled across the floor, Biomass laid there in exhaustion.
"Is that the last one?" Peter asked, grabbing his side in pain.
Biomass stood up with a grunt. "Yeah, that's the last one."
CLICK, CLICK, CLICK
Their victory was cut short as three dozen officers aimed rifles, shotguns, and pistols at them.
"....this is why people like firemen more."

Leo's POV
Well, fuck.
Peter, and I had our hands raised, not wanting to get shot.
"This is bad." Luke whispered to me.
Off in the distance, a group of people have been recording us for who knows how long.
"What do we do? I'm out of webs." Peter whispered, panicking.
I glanced around, a plan already forming.
"Alright, here's the plan. Form a circle, keep your hands up." We nudged together. "Other way, Spider," I told Peter, who quickly turned to face inward.
"Don't move!" An officer yelled. "The MRD will be called and-"
"Leave them alone!" A woman yelled.
"What are you doing?!" an old man added.
"They're the ones that actually took those things down." The crowd began to yell.
Turns out, pointing a gun at the people who just saved the day is not a good look, who could have guessed."
"When I say now, punch the ground as hard as you can." My hands tightened in a fist.
"What?" Peter, and Luke asked in unison.
"Now!" With a yell, I punched the ground as hard as I could.
Luke and Peter slammed their fists into the ground a second later, Peter let out a yelp as the ground cracked and collapsed underneath us.
We landed in the sewer water, dust from the broken concrete filled the air.
"What-COUGH now-COUGH?" Peter asked between coughs.
"Run!" I burst into a sprint, sewer water splashing every step.
===
"Push, push, push!" I yelled as I pulled.
"You couldn't find a bigger hole?" Luke asked, annoyed.
We lost the cops pretty quickly, the cowards didn't even try to chase after us. I mean, can you call yourself a cop if you're not willing to jump into a sewer system to chase after a group of enhanced individuals?
Either way, after running for about a block. We found an access ladder that led back to the surface, unfortunately. I failed to account for Luke's massive size.
"Uhmm, guys!?" Peter spoke, still underground. "I think the hole's cracking!"
At the moment, Luke is stuck halfway through a manhole in an alley. Peter is trying to push him out from underneath, while I'm trying to pull him out from above.
"Just push!" I yelled.
With a final grunt, Luke was pulled out. The manhole chipped, and cracked part way through.
Peter crawled out of the hole as Luke dusted himself off. We glanced down at the manhole, the edges cracked and misshapen.
"....what now?" Luke asked.
"We'll need to split up, they'll be looking for people that fit our description." I glanced at Luke, "Ditch the Hoodie."
With a roll of my neck, I began to concreted my biomass into my legs.
"Wait, you never told us your name." Peter called out.
"....the name's Mercer." With a leap, I flew through the air and onto a roof.
With a stumble, I landed on a nearby roof. Turning back, a moment passed until I saw a red blue shoot off into the distance.
Huh? I always forgot Spider-Man has a super leap. A moment passed but I didn't see Luke, so I'm guessing he walked instead of leaping.
Doesn't matter, time to check out what kind of Bonus Reward The Gacha gave me, with a mental command I opened up The System Screen.
[Quest: Defeat The Relic of Regime (Completed)]
[Reward: 150 XP & ???(Bonus Reward)]
This Bonus Reward better be worth it, with a mental command I accepted the gift.
[Event Card: Kriegstaffebot Squad]
[Kriegstaff Squad: A squad of 6 Kriegstaffebots, fully reprogrammed to be loyal to you and only you. Well, unless somebody hacks them.]
Let's fuckin go! I mean, I'll have to give them a redesign, make them less Nazi looking but still. Then again, where would I even put them?
Though, I have noticed a pattern. First the plague doctor, and now the Kriegstaffebot. Looks like Event Cards are just the enemy I fought.
Either way, I'll think of something later. For now, let's see that Bonus Reward.
[Bonus Reward: Ability: Biomass Clothing Game Mechanic (Prototype)]
[Biomass Clothing Game Mechanic (Prototype): Both James Heller, and Alex Mercer have the ability to create synthetic clothing out of their Biomass. Since it makes no sense in game science wise, it's simply a game mechanic. One that you now possess.]
A smile formed on my face.
Sounds like I'm about to get some new threads.
(Fun Fact: Originally, Leo was going to buy the junk yard where he killed The Crimson Blade, and fought Daredevil. Him, and the gang were going to turn it into an auto repair shop using the solid box to print out rare or expensive parts for cheap. I scrapped the idea when I realized they wouldn't be able to do till much later in the story, but maybe I'll reuse the idea one day.)
