Looking for stress relief

The next morning Ardour changed back into her Black Cat look and swung out into the city, searching for Spider-Man. She landed on the Empire State Building and looked out over the city, trying to find the red and blue man swinging through the streets.

Suddenly, she heard a bank alarm. Good timing, if Spider was likely to show up anywhere, it would be to stop a crime. So, she leapt off the building and swung towards the sound of the alarm using her grappling hook.

"Hey fellas, you sure you wanna do this?" She heard Spider-Man say as she landed on a nearby building, she looked out over the edge to see two criminals, holding bags of money, standing before Spider-Man. One of them pulled out a gun, which Spider-Man quickly webbed and threw away, "Good, I was hoping for some stress relief."

He leapt forwards, kicking the robber, who had pulled out the gun earlier, in the chest. The other tried to make a break for it, sprinting away.

"Where do you think you're going?" Spider-Man asked as he fired a web at the robber's foot and pulled on it, tripping the man and dragging him along the floor towards him. He then stood up and webbed the two bags of cash, pulling them towards him, "Is that it? I was hoping you'd put up more of a fight."

He then webbed up the two robbers, hanging them from a nearby light post, before walking into the bank to return the cash. As he left, Cat followed, waiting for him to get somewhere more private.

"Hey Spider." She stated, landing beside him.

"Cat, good to see you." He replied nonchalantly, still walking away, "Thanks again for yesterday."

"I'm happy to help." She stated, walking in front of him and making eye contact, "How is she?"

He stopped and turned to face a wall. He then punched it, his fist smashing through the plaster, sending a cloud of white dust flying into the air.

"She still won't see me." He stated, his voice stern, "Doctors said it would be good to give her space, but I love her so much, I just want to make it all better for her."

"Hey, it's alright." Cat said, placing a hand on his shoulder. She let the symbiote spread partly over to him, sharing the bond between the two of them, "No need to punch walls. But, that means they think she'll get better right? Isn't that good?"

She felt his body relax. He pulled his hand out of the wall and turned to face her.

"You're right. I think I'm so angry because Sierra also escaped custody. They're struggling to find her and I don't want her going after MJ again, especially when I can't be there to protect her."

"That why you were looking for stress relief when you kicked those robbers' asses?" She asked, he chuckled.

"You saw that?"

"Yeah, I wanted to see how you were. And when I heard the alarm, I knew that's where you would be."

"Well, yes. I'm looking for a fight, but I don't know who to punch."

"Well, you can fight me."

"What?" He said, taken aback.

"You can fight me. Come on, we both know I'm skilled enough, and I might be the only person who understands what you're going through. So if you want a fight; fight me. I can take a hit or two if it makes you feel better."
