Peter Parker's P.O.V.
Another day saved! I thought as I boarded the plane taking me back to my aunt's house it was almost 9:30 and I would have to start to formulate a convincible story as to why I was late from my 'class trip'. Just as the plane took off and the flight attendants quit their speech they know everyone had heard before, I let my mind wander to that girl. Something seemed off about her. She wasn't lying about getting up early to run, that was the truth, but there was something I couldn't place my finger on that was off about her. Perhaps it was just my nerves being on edge after hearing about the terrorist strike. The news stories covered it as a mass-murder, but the reality was, a terrorist organization whom called themselves The People, planned this attack months in ahead and was targeting Long Beach Washington State, because of its mayor did something or other to offend them. Whatever.
The five hour flight dragged on and we finally landed in New York. After getting off the plane, grabbing my luggage and checking out, I headed outside to wait for my aunt to come and pick me up. Realizing that my story had involved the buss dropping me off at my house, I face palmed myself. The airport was a good 20 minute drive from my home, so I was looking at a solid hour and a half walk. Unless.....
-------
I was swinging from the buildings with ease, not in my suit, but the dark of the night concealed me. Webs like white silk threads flew from my wrists. My own little blessing and curse I thought as I soared through the sky. My aunt's apartment came into view and I dropped down to the ground. I sunk my hands into my coat pocket and fished out a key. Opening the door I called out,
"Aunt May?" No response. I went into the kitchen and stood shocked at the scene before me.
My aunt was sitting at the kitchen table with a bald man with a black eyepatch going around his head. He had a stern expression on his face as they both peered up from their mugs on the table.
"Peter Parker where in God's earth were you?!" My aunt screeched.
"School trip. I believe I told you this a week ago." The man with the eyepatch let out a deep laughed.
"Ma'am I hope you wouldn't mind if I spoke with Peter for a moment alone?" He had a very deep voice that made you want to solute to him or something. My aunt reluctantly got up and exited the room. I eyed the man.
"Sit Peter." I sat.
"I'm sure you've hear of the Avengers-"
"Who hasn't? 'Earth's mightiest heroes' the ones who 'saved' New York last year? When really all they did was leave a huge mess for the rest of us to clean up!" I said cutting him off.
"Do I sense some jealousy Peters? Or should I say Spider Man..." I froze. How did he know, I didn't tell anyone, not even Gwen! How did this psychopath know about my other half?
"We need you Peter..."--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jennifer's POV
I walked through the door to my small apartment, hoping for a quite evening with my cat Jeffery. Yeah, that didn't happen. When I walked in to the room, there was something I would never in my dreams think to see. Juan was sitting there except he wasn't in this apron and normal clothes that we were required to wear to the diner. Instead, he was wearing a black jacket that had a logo of a bird on it with black cargo pants equipped with a gun holster and gun. His face held a stern expression, but when he saw that I had entered the room he smiled and sat up a bit straighter in the chair.
"Um Juan? What are you doing here? It's not that I don't want the company of one of my only friends, but what are you doing here."
"You may want to sit down Jen." I sat. He sighed.
"I am part of an organization called S.H.I.E.L.D." He gestured to the logo on his jacket, "where they hold the world's worst villains and the best heroes. It's responsible for the whole New York episode last year and many things that people don't know about. I am one of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s agents sent to keep an eye on you for they are aware of your special abilities. Director Nick Fury put me here undercover so that when we were ready, we could find you. And now, we are in need of you." I stared at him blankly. Juan, my best friend, was a secret agent!?! I stilled try to process the news and wondered how he could possibly know about my abilities since I have never told anyone. I finally spoke,
"So do you have anything else I don't know? Is your name like John or Phill or something like that? Are you like a freaking ninja or something crazy like that's?" He laughed.
"My name is Juan, and I like to think that I am a ninja, thank you very much. Listen Jen, S.H.I.E.L.D. is a grate place and I think that you will like it. I can assure you that you will feel welcomed in the environment with your powers." He paused looking up at me. I stared back at him, not wanting to loose our little stare down. There was no way in the universe I was going to go with him to some fake facility. People before, whom I have been foolish enough to trust, took me and used me and my abilities for bad reasons and even if I trusted Juan, I didn't like the look of this.
He sighed almost he he could read my mind.
"I'm not technically allowed to tell you this Jennifer but there has been threats from outer space and from a guy named Thanos. My boss has been trying to put together a group of people, a group of heroes, to stop him. His intentions are the same as the invader Loki only last year. We have proven that Thanos himself actually possessed the Asgardian prince and made him attack New York, but this time he is coming here and his only goal is world domination. We need you Jen... Please just come and if you don't like it or want to come back, then I will let you, but please just come and try this out. The human race is depending on you." I sighed how were you supposed to say no to that. And maybe Juan was right, maybe it would be on okay experience.
"Fine I'm in. What could go wrong."
"Great! Go pack a bag and I'll meet you out here. I can give you 13 minutes." I laughed and went into my bedroom and sped around the room, literally, and packed two bags with clothes and essentials. I was done with in 50.45 seconds.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to now introduce my powers now. The first is, telekinesis. I was born with an identical and photographical mind, which they used to their advantage so that I can now speak to people in their minds, teleport, creat things with my mind, use my eyes to see things that aren't there, (A/N kinda hard to explain but like iron man can do when he is in the suit) and store and endless amount of data in my brain which call my hard drive and then be able to pull it up and project it in the air or on any surface. Also, I can control the elements. What elements you ask? Here: water, fire, ice, earth, and wind. I control those by tattooed bracelet like things on my wrist that when I press my thumb to the "gem" in the middle, I am able to completely be in control of that element. And finally, I am super agile. It's not really a super power, but I like to think that with all the years of training that I did, I like to think of it as pretty important. Anyway, that is me. Want to know how a normal teenage girl can do all that?
When I was 8 years old, my parents took me to their work place, which turned out to be experimental labs for rabbits and other animals. They told me that what they had been working on their whole life was complete and they wanted to test it on me, and being the obedient child I was at the time, I obliged. That first day, all they did was take blood samples with some other scientists, but as the days went on, it got more intensive. One month in they injected in me the serum that made me telekinetic. It only got worse from there. By the time I was twelve, they had injected, me with all the serums and other awful things. One night while I was staying over night at the facility to make sure that my newest power, teleportation, I over heard the conversation between all the scientists. To sum up a long 30 minute conversation, they were planning to use me as a lethal killing weapon. I was so frightened that while everyone else in the facility was asleep, I packed my bags and ran away. From that day on, I vowed to myself to never use my powers in fear that I may hurt someone.
I decided to change from my work clothes into something that was both more comfortable and more my style. I decided to go with black skinny jeans that has tears all up the front, a black sleeveless shirt that had the word, Misfits on it, and black leather boots. Guess what my favorite color is. I let my hair down from the tight bun, and into a loose ponytail. I took one more glance in the mirror and nodded in approval. The two bags I had packed, I slung over my shoulders and carried until I was in my living room again. Lastly, I grabbed my purse, a phone charger, and headphones and met Juan outside.
"Are you ready?" He asked not seeming fazed at all that I had made myself present in under 5 minutes.
"Ready as I'll ever be." I said with a bit of sarcasm and a bit of truth.
Here goes nothing.
