Spider-man: Start of a hero

The Angel and The Spider

Its 11am when I wake up. I look over at my phone and see I have 3 text messages. One's from Chanté asking what time we're going to Rockwell Inc. I text her saying at 12am. The other two are from my mother telling me to wake up.

I get out of bed and head downstairs. I look around to see I'm alone. I sit on the couch and turn on the TV. I watch to see any news of Rockwell. There's some news about damages to the building occurring but nothing much after that.

I decide to leave out and go swinging. I swing downtown and look around for crime. I hear police sirens going off and head toward them. I see a high speed chase in progress. I jump onto the speeding car and enter through the passenger door.

" I'm pretty sure you're way above the speed limit."

The driver jerks his head toward me and pulls out a gun. He fires and I dodge it easily. I grab it and fling it out the window.

" Shooting isn't very nice."

I throw him into the back and web him to the seats.

" I'll take over, but just so you know, I don't know how to drive."

I slam the brakes and the car begins to slow down. Police begin to surround the vehicle so I jump out the window and swing away.

I stop on a rooftop and look down toward the streets. Things are casual so I decide to leave.

Hours pass as I just hang around the city and stop crimes. I check my phone to see it's 11:30 and decide to text chanté. I tell her to meet me at the building behind Rockwell Inc in 15 minutes.

I swing away toward the building and look around for her. I arrive at it and crouch on the ledge. It's about 5 minutes until I hear the beating of wings.

" How have things been?" I turn to see her unamused by my comment. " Lighten up a little, this should be a little fun at least."

She sighs and retracts her wings. " It was fine, how about you?"
" Just fighting crime and swinging around, nothing much." " Aren't you exhausted?"
" No, I have a lot of energy in fact." " Right, I'm ready when you are."

I get up from my crouched position and leap off the building. I form wings and fly toward the top of Rockwell Inc. Chanté follows behind me and we both land on the roof.

" Alright,we should enter through the top entrance, I heard there's less security." " Alright, but let's be careful."

I use my symbiote to move the locks around and open the door. I enter to see a lot of stairs going on for a while.

" I don't know about you, but I'm not a stairs guy." I jump down and fall rapidly until I'm near the bottom. I use web lines to slow my descent and stop. I let go and land on the ground.

" Chanté? Where are you?" I look around and see no sign of her anywhere.

" Boo." I jump a bit seeing her behind me. " How did you do that?" " See? Taking the stairs has its perks."

" Whatever, let's go." We walk toward the door and look out of it. Three guards walk by and survey the area. " I'll wrap them up and you knock them out. Okay?" She nods and I aim my hand toward the guards.

I shoot three web lines that cover their faces and pull them toward us. Chanté knocks them out quickly and I web them to the floor. I tell her to wait there for a second and exit out the stair case. I look around for cameras and see about 6 of them. I shoot web shots at them and tell her to come out.

I crawl on the walls as she walks below me. " We need to find the elevator. Only then can we reach the sub levels." We keep walking until we reach a room with clear walls.
