A Vigilante In Pursuit

[The Vision]

Mr. Jarvis shuddered silently behind Moon Knight’s back. Mr. Spector was known to sudden bursts of violence. Even though Mr. Jarvis was never the target of said violence himself (and frankly he believed he never would be), he was uneasy. After all, no matter how progressive one was, finding out someone was mentally ill always made them very uncomfortable.

This was why he mentioned the Danger Room so soon. It was best to ascertain the sanity of this particular incarnation of Moon Knight, and what better way to do so than in combat?

“Mr. Spector, I trust you are familiar with the Danger Room and its functions?”

“Never used it,” Moon Knight replied, “Didn’t this belong to the X-Men?”

“I’m not sure how long you’ve been in the Omniverse, sir,” Mr. Jarvis replied formally, “But there are no X-Men here. Not as we know them.”

Moon Knight didn’t respond. He simply stepped into the large modern arena. There were still singe marks from when Mr. Jarvis was testing his Iron Butler suit.

“I’m ready when you are.”

Mr. Jarvis bowed and stepped out of the room. Moon Knight made a silent prayer to Khonshu and prepared to fight. Two minutes passed. After a pleasant “ding-dong”, the cool and soothing voice of the Danger Room AI spoke.

“Hello, Marc Spector. Welcome to the Danger Roo-”

Mr. Jarvis appeared in the glass booth above, pressing two keys on the dashboard. The voice abruptly stopped speaking.

“Simulation objective: locate and detain the pictured individual.”

A hologram of a humongous humanoid wolf appeared before Moon Knight. The ex-mercenary immediately identified the character.

“Werewolf by Midnight,” the Silver Avenger muttered.

The hologram vanished. Next to where it was, a holographic bear trap appeared.

“Hazard: Multiple bear traps in various places.”

Suddenly, the lights shut off, leaving Moon Knight in complete darkness. Even the booth appeared darkened from the outside. The only source of light was the faint glow from the sheer whiteness of the hero’s suit.

“Simulation begins in three... two... one...”
