She threw a trash can at them, knocking them on their asses. She then threw another one into a all and when one guy charged form the back she threw him over her head, through the air and into another guy who tried to get on his feet.
She looked like she was having fun beating those thugs. She danced around, throwing them from one corner to another. But just then I noticed one guy looking really pissed as he charged into Jean's blind spot with a knife thrust forward.
"That's not very nice!" I called out shooting a web line and grabbing the weapon out of his hand.
They all stopped and turned to see me standing on the wall a few feet off the ground examining the knife. "This is very dangerous you know. People could get hurt, like innocent unopened letters."
"S-spider-man?!" one guy yelled out, "fuck this! This bitch ain't worth it!" They all turned around and ran leaving me and Jean alone.
I jumped down and tossed the knife over my shoulder, "you know I really do miss the old days when common thugs didn't run in fear. Like back then they actually stood their ground and fought back! Sigh, so sad."
I looked at Jean, she had her jaw dropped in awe, her eyes sparkling. I tilted my head, the only way to show any emotion through this mask, "so...who are you supposed to be?"
"I-I'm Marvel girl," she squeaked out looking scared out of her wits.
I chuckled, "it's alright Marvel, I'm not going to bite...well, unless you ask me too." Jean squeaked. I looked around and whistled, "damn, you have some power. What is it? Telekinesis? You a mutant or cosmic accident?"
"M-mutant," Jean squeaked out, "a-and your Spider-man!"
I nodded, "right in one! What gave me away? Was it the giant black spider on my chest?" Jean chuckled, "oh great, you can laugh. I was beginning to think all you could do was squeak in fear. If you're going to be a hero you need to be brave Marvel Girl."
"I am!" she cried out passionately, "it's just...I've never met a really super hero before."
"Oh, that's sweet," I flicked her on the forehead, "but if you're serious about being a hero, you need to start taking this more seriously. Go home, train, learn, adapt. You can't use your powers for everything, got that?"
Jean nodded, "yeah, I know. It's just….I wanted to see what I could do."
"Well from what I saw you have the potential to be something pretty amazing," I chuckled taking out my phone, "selfie?"
Jean's eyes sparkled, "yeah!"
I chuckled as we stood next to each other, Jean putting up the peace sign while I gave my trademark devil horns. I quickly put the picture up on Instagram with the caption:
Just meat a real Marvel today, NY, say hello to Marvel Girl! Careful, she bites.
I made sure Jean's face was a little blurred, keeping the image distorted in order to hide her face, not that you could tell it was her right away. I turned to Jean, "alright Marvel Girl, stay safe, don't do anything I wouldn't do, and don't worry, you'll get the hero thing soon. I just know it."
Jean smiled as I jumped away crawling up the building wall. "Thank you Spidey!" Jean cried out.
"You're welcome!" I yelled back, crawling into the roof and hiding in the shadows. I looked down and followed Jean as she quickly walked back to where Liz and the others had parked.
She quickly got in and they drove off. I followed them from the roof tops, Jean seemed to be telling them all something excitedly, probably of her first meeting with the most amazing super hero in the world.
It seemed like it was going to be a smooth ride back home, when suddenly I saw something flying across rooftops, landing in the middle of the road.
Liz's car screeched to a halt as we all stared in surprise at the metal beam imbedded into the middle of the road. The girls looked confused, but for me I felt what must have been the very beginning of a heart attack.
He was here. How? How did he know?! Was it my picture? No, I didn't add a location and I doubt Magneto of a people used Instagram, but as I was thinking, the man in question came in view.
He floated down from the sky, the girls looked up at him. He wore his trademark helmet and purple cape. His suit was black with a red chest piece and his arms had purple bracers.
"You," his voice was so soft yet loud, I could see the whites of his eyes behind the shadowed insides of his helmet, they were looking at Jean, "you are a mutant, strong and perfect in every way."
"Who the hell are you?!" Jean yelled out, stepping protectively before her friends.
"I am Magneto, a mutant, like you," he stated, his cape billowing in the wind, "I have come with an offer."
"Yeah? What is it? Want some fashion advice? Capes were so last century bro!" Jean yelled back. I raised an impressed eyebrow, her first night out and already she was trash talking like the best. I'm so proud!
"I offer you salvation, Jean Grey," he ended slowly.
Jean gasped, "h-how did you find my name?"
"I have my ways," Magneto nodded, "join me, and I will show you a world unlike any other. Where you don't have to hide who you are, what you are. Join me Jean, you will never have to hide, show the world just how amazing you are."
