I drop my backpack on the bed with a sigh, school is finally over! Now, I can sit and try and figure out the identity of the new villain in town.
Hi, I'm Peter Parker, and I have a big secret that nobody knows, at day, I'm an ordinary boy, I go to school, get good grades and so on, but at night, I dress up as the local vigilante by the name Spider-Man.

A new villain, apparently named Shadow, appeared yesterday night on my patrol and they almost defeated me in a fight, I had to flee the scene as not to be stabbed by this guy's swords! Who did he think he was? Deadpool? Running around the city like a lunatic with katanas!

Hey! Did you readers see that?

Stop breaking the fourth wall Deadpool!

But he called me a lunatic!

Shush!

I carefully skim over the cameras in town from last night, but much to my dismay there was no solid evidence that could lead anywhere. I groan to myself, if I don't catch this villain soon he might start harming civilians just to gain my attention, because from what I gathered from last night, Shadow's only aim was to get a hold of me, for some reason was Spider-Man the primary target of him. That was an interesting lead, then maybe they weren't out for their own reason but maybe getting paid for it by something or someone greater than them. Maybe H.Y.D.R.A? I put my computer down with a sigh, not really any closer to finding an identity of the new villain.

I sigh and decide to swing out, maybe Shadow will show up, he was fairly recognizable, being kind of chubby for a villain whoms only job is to hunt me, he was also dressed completely in black with a mask like a ninja so only his eyes were visible, as far as I could see, the man was asian, but I wasn't sure as in the heat of the moment I was too cuaght up with the fight to focus on his promenent features. I swung around the city, enjoying the fresh air wooshing me in the face, for once feeling like I could think clear. I reach one hand in front of the other and web slings out, it hits the building nearby and I propel myself towards it. I'm feeling free. Then my enhanced hearing picked up a scream nearby and I quickly change my route and land in front of a teenage girl I unfortunately regocnize as one of my best friends, MJ Watson. In front of her stands Shadow, only now raising his sword.

'hmmm, so he didn't want to hurt the girl, which probably means he wont hurt civilians' I think to myself, 'well, not quite yet at least'.
"Get back Ma'am! I order at MJ and she nods silently and sneaks away, I look after her for two seconds when a sharp pains shoots from my arm, Shadow had thrown a sword and it hit my arm, luckily not through it. I feel the warm blood running down my arm and I jump back and kneels down to take the sword, it doesn't feel heavy nor too light in my hand and I jump forward, swinging the sword the best as I could from what I've seen him figth and from Deadpool.

Yeah! I was to use!

I leap forward and down, and slash his thigh so he stumples down, loosing his balance on that leg, he tries to hump away and I throw the sword, not really aiming at any lethal place, I didn't want to kill him, because I wanted to see who his 'boss' was. The sword just grazed his cheek and a small cut appeared on it. I let out a sigh of relief as I barely could move my arm. I let him run away and instead I made my way over to MJ who was still hiding inside an alleyway.
"Are you alright ma'am?" I ask and MJ nods and I'm relieved that she's okay.
"Did you notice anything special about him?" I ask her and she think's for a minute.
"Well, he was fairly keen on not speaking, but still there were a familiar feel about him, but it was probably nothing. Thank you Spidey" she said and I nodded, told her it was no problem and told her to go home.

I swing around Queens for the rest of the afternoon, around midnight I decide to swing home and stitch up my arm that hurts even more now. I stiffle my scream in agony and bandage the wound, it would hopefully be healed by tomorrow, otherwise would MJ, the sweet, smart girl as she is probably get suspicious. After I had applied the bandage, I decide to go to sleep.

I wake up the next morning and decide to take a look at the wound on my arm. It was almost healed so I take the stitches out and wrap a new bandage around it. Then I slap my bag over my shoulder and run down, grab my breakfast on the go and then rush out to catch the bus. I take my headphones on to listen to music. i arrive at Midtown Tech and go in, everyones chitchatter being muted out by the music playing in my ears. While walking up to my locker I getr stopped by someone tapping my back, I turn around to see my best friend Ned Leeds so I pull down my headphones so they're around my neck.
"Ned! My guy!" I exclaim and we do our super cool handshake. As he starts talking I notice a cut on his cheek, it's pretty deep and exactly where I left the mark on Shadow...

But no! Now I'm overthinking, there's no way that Ned Leeds, my best friend and star wars nerd was a villain fighting me at night! There's just no way!
"Oh dude! What did you do to your cheek?" I ask him and a panicked glimpse flashes over his eyes for a split second, it disappeared so fast that it could've just been the light playing tricks.
"Oh, it's nothing, just cut myself shaving" he said with a nerveous laugh and I smiled. "Let's go to class" he added and began walking, or actually he limped and I froze as he limped on the exact same leg I had hit Shadow. There was just too much proof to shut it down... It felt like my heart stopped, tears threathened my eyes and a lump formed in my throat.

I just couldn't believe it.

Ned Leeds, my best friend, the one I was planning on telling I was Spider-Man, the one always being there for me, was a villain going by the name Shadow, whos only objective was to kill Spider-Man...

Ned Leeds was Shadow, my best friend tried to kill me...

...

"Dude! You coming or are we going to be late?" Ned asked with a friendly grin and I smile back to the best of my abillities. "Yeah, sorry, I zoned out" I say and catch up to him while we go to our history class.
