The Tragedy of Mary Jane Stark

Beck

They got to their hotel in Prague and Peter ran up to Ned. He had explained to Ned about the big monster coming to Prague and how he was going to fight it.

"Peter, is this thing is going to attack the streets? Cause I know we all want to go to the party." Ned said whispering.

"Oh shit your right, uh maybe I can get Fury to set something up. Hold on I'll be right back." Peter said running towards the door.

Peter ran to meet up with Nick Fury, Hill and Beck. Fury and Peter got into an argument and Peter ran to the roof tops to wait, before going back to the hotel. To make sure his friends were all out of the way.

"Fury asked me to check if you were Okay." Beck said flying up to sit next to Peter.

"That was nice?"

"You guys do have sarcasm on this earth right." Beck laughed.

"Oh that did sound to good to be true." Peter smiled.
"
How are you feeling." Beck asked

"I didn't think I was going to have to save the world this Christmas. I know that makes me sound like such a jerk. This responsibility of being a hero is just- crazy you know. And I've kept pushing myself to be better for the last several months, to prove that I can be the next iron man. But I never stopped to wonder if I even wanted too. This hero thing really puts a strain on all your everyday relationships. I want to enjoy this vacation with my friends. I want my girlfriend to not feel abandoned all the time because I always have to leave. I just want to have fun with my friends." Peter said quietly.

"You're not a jerk for wanting a normal life, kid. It's a hard path. You see things, you do things, you make choices. People look up to you. Even if you win a battle, sometimes they die.  I like you, Peter. You're a good kid. There's a part of me that wants me to tell you to just turn around, run away from all this. Go run to your girlfriends arms. And then, there's another part of me that knows what we're about to fight, what's at stake, and I'm glad you're here."

"Me too."

"But you're worried about your friends." Beck said.

"Yeah. I just always feel like I'm putting them in danger. I can't tell you how many stupid injuries Mj has had because of me." Peter said looking concerned.

"Look, just get them inside and keep them in a safe place, for just a few hours. It'll be alright." Beck patted his back.

" It's really nice to have somebody to talk to about superhero stuff, you know? I mean Mj thinks she understands because she's Tony's daughter but she really doesn't." Peter said quietly confessing. Becks eyes popped for a moment hearing Mj is Tony Starks daughter, but put a neutral face back on.

"Anytime. And hey if we survive this, you'll has the rest of the year to kill Brad." Beck joked making Peter giggle.

"See you out there." Peter said swinging towards the hotel.

Twenty minutes later Mr Harrington announced that the class was going to an opera, which no one seemed excited for.

"Really? We are going to skip the biggest party on this side of the world to watch opera!?" Betty shouted sounding annoyed.

"Uhh I think it will be very educational and informative." Ned said in a panicked voice, looking at Peter.

"Yeah! I mean this trip is supposed to be for learning anyway. We haven't done much of that yet. I think it will be very fun!" Mj called out noticing Peter next to her.

"Alright go get dresses in something nice and meet back down here in 15 minutes." Mr Harrington called out.

"That was you right? The opera thing?" Mary asked turning to Peter.
