((D. Octopus is reviving the sinister again with new villains on the team, how will Peter deal with them... Still unaware of his sudden change in power...))
Next afternoon, after class. Peter walked his way Outta the school building to the outfield, with a bag of sandwiches made by aunt May, he thought his day would get any luckier, but then he saw Liz coming into the cafeteria alone.
"Ah, hi..." He hesitantly raised his hand.
The girl, Peter used to date but never actually been with her on long occasions as he had to run out whenever he heard the sound of sirens chasing criminals through the city, looked at him with broken eyes then rolled her eyes reluctantly.
Peter could see how much he hurt her, he looked down and called "I'm sorry." But on his remark, Liz burst at him "I don't need it. I loved you Peter for real, but you... you never recognised me as someone important to you"
"I know I was a jerk & you deserved better" startled by the agonized look on her face, he reached out for her but then...
"Oh nerd patrol" Peter looked down gritting his teeth as he heard that annoying voice. It was Flash Thompson making fun of him again.
In front of his gang & everyone in the cafeteria's entrance...
"Let's go Liz. don't waste your time with the geek" Sally -Liz's best friend & Also one time Peter's crush, The frivolous cheerleader with a bad twisted personality- looked down at the boy while hugging her friend.
Peter glared at them, especially Flash who came in between in the conversation.
"Oh Puny Parker, Don't scare me or something crappy might happen" Flash smirked while eyeing one of his teammates to trip the boy on a tray of food the other left behind Peter. Flash reached out to push him back. Actually Peter often doesn't care about these stuff, he would let the bullying goes for no reasons. But only for the sake of maintaining his secret Identity kept undercover & never uses his power on civilian.
But suddenly Peter took a step backward while pulling Flash's collar to the ground to make him fall in his own trap.
The crew got startled by the sight of Flash's face down in the food messed up and Peter's hand on Flash's head.
"That's It, Parker. You're dead meat..." Flash messily wiped the mashed potatoes off his face and swung a punch then tow, then he continued his way to punch more, slowly being led by the boy who secretly was enjoying the situation of dodging all of his hits effortlessly till Flash finally ran out of gas and was barely standing breathing difficulty with angry eyes that lost their lights at Peter.
Peter grinned devilishly while knocking him with one finger "Next time, be careful before something crappy happens"
Gasps of other student, who began being attentive of the situation when Parke's attitude shifted in the middle of the fight, their shouts of surprise and ecstasy brought the boy back to reality, he turned away and left startled by his own actions.
On his way out, ashamed of himself 'what did I do, How did I end up using my power on some Student?' Peter sank in his thoughts but he suddenly heard the voices of clapping and cheering...
"That was amazing Parker..."
"Yeah man. You showed him who the boss is"
The fellow students were happy for the winning of the geek and freedom from the bully.
"By the way cool shirt, man"
Peter grinned to them happily then looked to his shirt thinking "when did I buy a Black Shirt?"
At 6.00 pm
"Aunt May, I'm back. Are you here?" in a delightful tone he announced his entrance, less for his knowledge the weak voice replied to him from the living "Yes.. Peter"
Peter put his one arm bag on the couch, he knelt by his aunt "Are you okay?" he put his hand over her shaking hands.
After a hard time answering, the older woman looked in pain while saying "Actually, no. D. Bromwell ordered me to be hospitalized today, but I don't want to"
"What!! You have to" he startled standing up holding both her hands tightly.
"Okay, let's go tomorrow, I want to spend the night with you two" She pulled her boy in feebly and hugged him dearly while staring far at Uncle Ben's picture on the table dark by the couch. It was his birthday. She wanted to celebrate it at least one more time even if he was dead.
At Night, Peter and his aunt had a big cake enjoying their time chatting about old times... Later, aunt May looked to her watch, Peter asked "what is it?"
"I think it's time"
The doorbell rang. Peter went to open to see a familiar person by the door, while his aunt was putting on is coat, "Anna" Peter called the woman at the door.
The old woman chuckled "Peter, how are you? You stopped dropping by these days"
The boy laughed sheepishly unaware of the situation, but then his aunt passed him wrapped well in scarf and her bag. Peter asked "aunt May, where are you going?"
"We are going shopping for some stuff to keep May's stay at the hospital peaceful"
"I will go too"
Aunt May smiled while kissing his cheeks as he stepped out in the cold "No, Peter, it's girl's nights only"
He watched them take a cab and go, he quickly changed his clothes & swung off. From roof to roof, Peter watched the city in its different lights till he reached the roof of a skyscraper. The beautiful light in the city tricked him in thinking of his own problems... for a couple of minutes, he wanted to change the view so he jumped to a lower roof where his spider senses freaked him out.
He jumped highly again to barely dodge one of D. Octopus' tentacles that shot fiercely at him, safely, Spiderman landed back on the roof "Oh, that was close.. Oc. How have you been?"
"I never missed you at all" smiled the man standing with 6 tentacles all mightily on the higher roof looking down on his adversary.
"Feeling mutual" The two went at it again. D. Octopus waved his tentacles right & left, up & down trying to catch the bouncing Spiderman flipping everywhere but not in his catch.
"So why are you here, to see me! Too bad, you are gonna blind" the web swinger laughed as he shot his web, blinding the other & Kicked him with one back-over flip kick that pushed him off the building.
The Vigilante walked to the edge to find out D. Octopus had completely disappeared.
"Already left, that was fast" but his spider tingling didn't stop. The wall crawler hit the deck quickly as some lighting passed over his head tried to fry him up.
"Oh Electro, what's with this day? And look who is there! Is that you vulture?" Peter looked at the two who appeared from behind on standing at the other edge of the roof while the other is up in the sky flying in circles in his high tech flying machine.
"Shut up you insect" Vulture who flew up shouted as he fired 3 Missiles at him. Spiderman jumped to avoid them but he got hit with electricity...
Electro found an opening for seconds "Yes, let's fry the spider". He shot again but Spiderman flipped up over him back to the roof after he was one step from falling, Vulture hunted him mid-air and knocked him again.
He fell down but miraculously he webbed his hand into a flag pole not so far from the roof level, whispering to himself in pain "Ahh, That's gonna leave a mark"
Spiderman eyed one sparking with electricity at the end of the roof while another preying at him from the sky, he bounced on the pole and shot two web balls at the flying Vulture disrupting his balance this time, while calling "Hey sparky head, try me now"
"DON'T CALL ME THAT" Electro shot all his discharges towards him.
"No you fool" Vulture shouted because Vulture was next to the large TV Screen so he caught charges that broke his machine down & fell to crash "Two down Sparky to go, hhhhh"
"Stay Put, Insect" Electro kept shooting continuously, while the wall crawled didn't stop his provokes "Catch me if you can"
Electro with his short temper followed Spiderman into the sewerage & Shot all his electricity at him but it backfired on him so he was the one got fried up because of his bad conductivity in water. He overflowed with power and passed out instead.
"That was too easy... Or it's me who got super strong? Something strange is going on"
Peter jumped from that place and dangled down some Pole to see his reflection into the glass cladding of the building he was on. He saw himself in black...
"Venom," Peter gasped and almost fell off his post, "... That's me, not again with the symbiont, I must shred him away"
"Wait peter, we don't want your mind" His reflection retorted as a recollection of thoughts playing tricks on his mind. More startled, Peter quietly became wary of the severity of the situation "You.. You rose a conscious of your own and you dare lie to me. You're already playing tricks"
"We want to help like we always did"
"!!!"
"Peter give it a little though, how could you knock out Rhino with one punch & have so much endurance in a battle against three of your worst enemies. It was us. We can crush them"
"There is no we," Peter shouted and punched the glass smashing it, "Since when?" Peter demanded answers authoritatively, the symbiont voice staggered in his mind "Since... your fight in the bank, you picked us up when you fell in the sewerage..."
"Yes, that's your perfect place. Once again, I 'll leave you there like I did after I finished Eddie before" Peter jumped off the pole "I'll end you"
"Noooo, Please Pet____"
(KYAAHHHH) people's screams
