Chapter 46: Try Me
~Daiko's Pov~

I made my way home, I had already gotten used to the city and such. I could memorize every detail from front to back if I wanted to, so I was done for the day. And now it was already night.
Still, I had already found who I had to take down, it wouldn't be hard to find him, since he lived in the general area, most likely. With that said, I had to make some plans to counter the guy.
He was on my level of strength, slightly weaker, however, his abilities were annoying since he was Spider-Man. Meaning he had that he possessed that especially annoying 'spider-sense' passive, which was hax-like. Bro essentially had passive reflexive precognition.
However, it wasn't like it was all-powerful. To beat it, I simply had to move at speeds his body isn't capable of dodging, even if his instincts were capable of perceiving me. Not mentioning, my primal instinct ability.
He was well around subsonic speeds maybe mach speed if I'm being generous, which was hundreds of times slower than my current state. I was easily hypersonic, almost massively hypersonic in sheer speed.
Though, one would think I could easily beat/blitz him, people fail to realize that his spider-sense ability makes him capable of dodging light itself, well. Aim dodge it.
Not to mention his other plethora of abilities to add to that.
Still, this was a topic for another time.
At the moment, I'm currently being followed...

I came to see what the deal was with this guy. I eyed him up earlier, only for him to look at me with his icy blue eyes... Eyes that were familiar. I could tell he knew me, but I didn't know him. And my hunches were never wrong.
So, I ditched Peter, to follow this guy, though he's a slippery one...
And he takes corners sharply too. Though... Seeing his 'little' demonstration of earlier, made me interested...
I hopped from one rooftop to another. Being careful to not make an ounce of sound. Seeing another alley up ahead, I saw him turn into it, again...
'Another one? What is with him?' I thought to myself. I made my way towards the roof just to see him over the alley, but...
'What the!? He's, gone...' I thought to myself. Looking around the night with vigilance, but I didn't see a thing.
'Strange. Did he know I was following him? No, that shouldn't be possible. I made sure to not make a sound.
"Shit..." I said, slightly frustrated. I clicked my tongue in annoyance. He got away, scotch-free too. Not even Parker is that good at sneaking away.
'I guess I'll call it a night, I'll keep my eye out for him' I noted, ready to turn and leave, only to see icy blue eyes glowing, whilst piercing my own.
'Fuck...'

Not even a day goes by and I was already followed. Not only did she fall for my trap, but it was also almost too easy. I easily used my speed and went behind her. Now we were face to face.
I felt her breath accelerating, her heart pumping slightly faster, and her eyes dilating too. Evidence of Panic, fear, and surprise...
'I spooked her a bit, how naughty of me.' I thought, chuckling internally. This reminded me of the times I hunted those Marlocian predators of one of the planets I've conquered. Either way, she was stupid enough to go through with this with someone she didn't know a thing about...
"May I ask why I was being followed?" I asked her.
A minute passed by with nothing but silence between us...
Then she finally broke it.
"How did you know I was following you?" She asked, feining her confidence. I shrugged mentally at what she asked. Out of all things, she asked how I knew.
'Women.' I thought to myself. It must be her pride in her spying and sneaking capabilities. Too bad for her, one always has someone better than you at something. With the exception being me...
"It's simple really, I felt the vibration in the air and smelt your perfume," I said, not lying.
Her eyebrows twitched for a second.
'He felt the vibrations in the air? What the fuck does he even MEAN!?' She thought panicking. Now she felt as if she had messed with someone or something that was beyond her capabilities.
"Now... Why was I being followed? I don't know you, miss" I said to her.
"Your lying... I can see it in your eyes that you know me, and not just me. But my friends as well." She replied.
"So you followed me, because I looked at you, and your friends, right? That's a shitty reason. Though I know you are telling the truth, personally I don't think it's the whole truth." I said to her.
"Well, it's the main reason." She replied.
I sighed. Shaking my head. She was lucky I wasn't too keen on being secretive about my prowess. I would've silenced her if I was...
"Still, a great set-up you have for following someone, no costume, mask, or anything, plus a backpack, a school-girl I presume? You must be really confident in your abilities." I said sarcastically.
I saw her face contort with a look of annoyance.
"You are lucky that you're a pretty boy..." She said, mumbling under her breath.
I perked up hearing that. Making the connections, I smiled. 'So that's the other reason...'
"Huh... You think I'm pretty? How nice of you, you aren't so bad yourself." I said.
Quickly, a blush appeared on her face, before she dawned a look of anger.
'He heard that too? I need to get out of here... Luckily I have some smoke bombs left over. I can escape.' She thought, ready to throw the bombs on the floor.
However, an alarm went off, ringing physics.
Once again, silence loomed over us...
This time, I broke it.
"You want any help?" I asked, seriously.
She looked at me with annoyance, saying. "You don't know a thing about physics, and why the hell would I even ask the person I'm following? That's a different kind of risk. Second, how do I now know you don't want to end me?" She stated.
I quickly replied.
"To answer your second question, If I wanted to kill you." I quickly dashed behind her as soon as she blinked. Placing a hand on her shoulder as I did so.
"I could've killed you anytime I wished..."
I saw her turn around. An excited smile graced her face. She responded.
"What about my first question?" She asked, her heart pounding in her chest as well as her eyes contracting. Even the hair on her hands began standing up...
"For your first question... Try me." I said.
