Red Spyder
Interruption
Red's current lack of servants gave him less security around his mansion, not that that was something he was ever particularly worried about. Even when he didn't have servants to help keep an eye on things, uninvited guests rarely went away still breathing. But after what was about to happen, he was going to consider hiring replacement servants sooner rather than later.
On the sidewalk outside of Red's mansion, the giant, human-shaped thing known only as Steve lumbered along, stopping at the foot of the driveway and turning to look at the mansion in the distance. He simply stood there for a moment, staring, as if determining whether or not that was indeed where Red lived. He then began moving up the driveway, noticing the numerous security cameras, but unconcerned by them. They weren't currently being watched anyway, not that Steve knew that little fact.
Inside, Red and April were in the middle of watching a movie called Dark Night of the Scarecrow, although they'd missed parts of it due to their making out. In fact, they were currently in a laying down position on the sofa, him on top of her, paying zero attention to the movie. Missing the movie didn't really matter to Red though, as he'd already seen it before. What did matter though was when a there were several very loud and hard-sounding knocks made at the front door. He reluctantly pulled away from her lips, sighing.
April: "Ignore it. Maybe they'll go away. And if they don't, they can just wait until we're finished."
She smiled seductively at him and he was strongly considering doing exactly what she'd suggested, but then there was another knock, this series of them seemingly louder and harder than the first.
Red: "Ugh. I better get it before they break the damn door down."
Giving her one last kiss, he climbed to his feet and walked out of the living room to the front hall. Opening the front door, he felt like he'd previously encountered the giant standing before him, but he couldn't quite remember when or where.
Red: "Yeah? What the fuck do you want..."
He bent forward to have a look at the name tag on his chest.
Red: "Steve?"
It took a moment, but then it clicked. He'd first encountered Steve at an office building a few years ago. Steve had put up quite a fight. He had a feeling that Steve wasn't there to start a friendship.
Red: "Motherfuc-"
Red was cut off when Steve suddenly planted one of his large fists into Red's chest, actually knocking him backwards into the wall behind him with a thud, where he fell into a sitting position. Gasping for air, Red saw April step out of the living room to see what was going on. He only had time to say two words to her.
Red: "April! Run!"
Because as soon as he said that, Steve dragged Red back to his feet. It was Red who did the punching that time though. Landing several punches to Steve's chest and gut, Red managed to force Steve back one step.
Red: "You're going to die, you sack of shit."
Steve then proceeded to punch Red in the head, knocking him back down to the floor.
