No Ones POV

Peter texted Wade to ask him to look after Sofia while he was out being Spiderman because he wanted to stay out late. Luckily for Peter Wade was already in bed with cookies after tucking Sofia in for bed due to his attachment to that apartment.

Karen's synthetic voice rang after a long moment of silence, "Peter. You need to go home and get some rest."

"Look Karen, I love you, but I just lost the only living member of what family I thought i was of. No matter our relationship at the end. So, no I will not go home just to get up tomorrow like nothing happened. She died on the streets when I was taking a shower. I could have been there to help her but I wasn't so maybe being out here tonight I can save someone so their family member isn't wondering if they could have done more. But yes, your opinion is noted."

Karen didn't respond. "I'm sorry. That was passive aggressive, I didn't mean it. I know you only mean the best for me."

"Its okay. I just was processing what you said. You have yet to finish programming me on sarcasm and I don't have relatives to pass so even though I'm the most evolved person in that apartment other than Sofia and Alice, from what I've heard, I'm still not finished evolving."

"First off rude. Second, you have family, but you might have to wait awhile for us to die now that I have another life of which I'm responsible. Isn't that mad?"

"Yes. You really shouldn't be allowed to look after a child, but I think all that time of training with Wade."

"That's true."

"But now you get to raise the two of them with your husband- there's a group of teenagers getting held up by gunpoint 3 blocks away."

"On my way." I jumped over a couple buildings until I could shoot a web to speed up getting there.

It didn't even take two minutes to get there but when I do some small part of me wished it took longer. Flash and his goons were standing there, frozen, with their hands in the air surrendering. The man holding the gun had his face covered with a long beanie hat pulled down with poorly cut circles where the eyes and mouth are supposed to be, but he kept having to readjust it.

"Sorry to interrupt the fun here but I'm sure that gun has an appointment to go to so if you just hand that over to me and we'll be on our way, wont we? Looking over the scene here it doesn't look like you have much going on tonight either."

The man almost smacks the gun into his own head, "For fucks sake. Why are you here?"

"Its almost like you don't like seeing me," I pretend to wipe a tear away, "Want to make this easy or hard sweetie?"

"Well, I have a gun."

"And I have powers, what's your point?"

No one said anything and I think I won. "Now um..." what do I call them? "Kids go stand in the corner or something I'll deal with the man who has to much testosterone."

Gun man looked offended. Such small self-esteem, I want to help that even though he's trying to kill a bunch of rich mean teenagers. "Though your actions this evening is a bore I must say I like your jeans, good fit, and your jacket clashes with the jeans but in a nice way. Slay it queen." I snap my fingers, secretly telling Karen to call the police by tapping my fingers on my hip with the other hand.
