The Spider-Man Chronicles (Part 1)

Chapter 2

3 ~~INT. CAFETERIA-AFTERNOON~~ 3

Y/n is sitting at a table, alone, in the cafeteria of her school, Midtown High.

She is picking at her food with a plastic fork.

The sound of someone sliding their shoe on the floor and a set of other sounds causes her to look to the right; where the sounds are coming from.

A pretty looking girl is standing in the middle of the cafeteria with one of Peter's arms snaked around her waist, and the other holding her lunch tray.

MARY JANE
Wow! Great reflexes! Thanks.

PETER
No problem.

MARY JANE
Hey, you have blue eyes. I didn't notice without your glasses. You just get contacts?

Peter just stares back at her, smiling.

MARY JANE
Well, see you.

The girl walks to a table with her tray and sits down with Flash and his friends.

The narration begins again.

Y/N
Well if it isn't Mary Jane Watson. One of the prettiest girls in school. Every guy is crazy about her. Including Parker. You see the way he looks at her? It drives me insane. She's also dating Flash Thompson, the jerk. Honestly they deserve each other.

All of a sudden, a tray of food flies and hits Flash in the back.

The people at Flash's table laugh.

Flash gives a confused, angry look.

He looks behind him as Peter gets up and begins leaving the cafeteria.

BOY
What happened?

People in the cafeteria begin standing up to see what happened.

BOY #2
He's freaking weird.

Flash stands up.

Peter keeps walking towards the cafeteria doors with a tray attached to silk following him.

GIRL
Did you see that?

FLASH
Parker?

Peter leaves the cafeteria, the tray stuck behind the closed doors.

Y/n is standing up looking at the cafeteria doors when the narration says:

Y/N
Uh-oh.

Flash starts walking quickly towards the cafeteria doors.

His friends and Mary Jane get up and begin following him.

Everyone else in the cafeteria has begun sitting back down, and resuming their conversations.

Y/n gets up and leaves hastily towards the cafeteria doors.

4 ~~INT. HALLWAY~~ 4

Y/n comes out of the cafeteria just as a bang can be heard against a locker.

FLASH
Think you're pretty funny don't you, freak?

MARY JANE
Flash it was just an accident.

Y/n is walking quickly up to the group of students starting to gather around Flash and Peter.

FLASH
My fist breaking your teeth is the accident.

MARY JANE
C'mon Flash, stop.

PETER
I don't want to fight you Flash.

FLASH
I wouldn't want to fight me neither.

MULTIPLE PEOPLE
Kick his ass.

Flash puts up his arms in a fighting stance.

People begin cheering Flash on to beat Peter up.

Flash goes to punch Peter three times with his left arm, but Peter dodges them.

Flash then tries to punch Peter with his right arm, but Peter dodges that by bending backwards, almost touching the ground.

Peter stands back up straight.

MARY JANE
Help him, Harry.

Peter triple backflips to dodge getting tackled by one of Flash's cronies.

GIRL #2
How'd he do that?

HARRY
Which one?

ONE OF FLASH'S CRONIES
He's all yours, man.

Flash begins trying to punch Peter with both of his arms, but Peter dodges all of them.

Peter then grabs both of Flash's arms, and continues holding onto Flash's right arm while Flash howls in pain.

Peter punches Flash with his right hand and Flash goes flying across the hallway floor, colliding with a teacher, causing him to drop his tray of food onto Flash.

Students cheer.

Peter still has his right arm out, looking amazed.

GIRL #2
Flash, get up!

ONE OF FLASH'S CRONIES
Jesus, Parker, you are a freak.

Peter stares at Mary Jane with guilt while she stares at him with uncertainty.

HARRY
That was amazing.

GIRL #2
I'm out of here. Come on.

Peter walks away abruptly as Mary Jane, Harry, and y/n all watch him leave.
