Y/N's P.O.V

I run out of the office and I can see Peter fighting Doc Ock through the glass.

A moment later I'm joined by Pete.

Peter: I'll tell you the good news. We don't need the monitor.

Y/N: Oh, right.

He takes the monitor and throws it away.

Peter gets grabbed and thrown by Doc Ock.

Ock: You didn't tell me you had a Spider friend.

Pete shoots a web line and pulls me under Octavius.

Doors close behind me, cutting Octavius off from us.

After that we run through the cafeteria and get outside.

Peter: Okay, pal. Time for you to web swing, just like I taught you.

Y/N: You didn't teach me to web swing yet.

Peter: I know. It was a joke, for team building and all that.

We get to the edge and Pete pushes me over the side.

I quickly fire a web line and try to web swing.

Y/N: Whoa! Whoa! Oh, shit! 

Peter: Everyone knows that the best way to learn is under intense life-threatening pressure.

Y/N: Is that how you learned?!

Peter: Uh, no!

Y/N: What?!

Just then I hit a tree and fall to the ground.

After that I start running, but manage to shoot out a web line to continue swinging.

Peter: Nice, Y/N! You got it, buddy!

He and I start swinging together.

Y/N: I'm doing it!

Peter: You're doing it! Now, double tap to release and thwip it out again.

Y/N & Peter: Thwip and release. Thwip and release.

I start doing that and it gets easier.

Peter: There you go. You're a natural.

It's coming back to me and my powers aren't giving out.

Peter: That's it! Good, Y/N!

Y/N: I gotta say, you're amazing, man.

Peter: We're a team now, man. Me as the mentor who can still do it. You as the student that can do it, just not as good. I'm proud of us. Is....

Just then Pete gets hit by one of Ock's arms and falls down.

Y/N: Peter!

I drop down and we both land on a branch. I manage to catch the computer though.

But slips out of my hand and the branch snaps.

As we fall, Pete and I get caught by webs and hang from the trees.

Peter: Whoa.

Y/N: What happened?

We see a figure in a black and white suit fly past us.

They then start to fight Doc Ock.

It seems to be another Spider.

After taking down Octavius the Spider comes over with the computer.

The Spider is a girl in a black and white suit.

(A/N: This is Anya's current Spider-Woman suit

(A/N: This is Anya's current Spider-Woman suit.)

Anya: Hey, guys.

Y/N: Anya?

Peter: So, you know her? Very cool.

Anya: I'm from another dimension. I mean another-another dimension.

After that she gets us down to tell us her story.

Anya: I'm Anya Corazon. I was bitten by a radioactive spider. And for the last year, I've been the one and only Spider-Woman. I did some hero stuff. Saved some people, saved my dad. I couldn't save my best friend, Y/N Kneway. So, now I save everyone else. I also don't do friends anymore, just to avoid any distractions.

She lost her Y/N. She lost my doppelganger.

After that she explains how she was brought into my dimension, but got knocked into last week.

Anya: Anyway, my spider sense told me to go to Brooklyn Vision's. I wasn't sure why until I met you, Y/N.

My eyes widen.

Y/N: Really? Your spider sense told you to find me?

She nods.

Anya: Yeah, it did. My spider sense went off when you walked into the classroom and a little bit when you walked past me in the hallway.

Y/N: Wow, okay.

Gwen: Okay, let's go.

She web swings away and we go after her.

(Twenty minutes later)

So, we're on a bus back to the city.

Anya and I are sat with each other.

We've been talking.

I've told her about my mental block and how Peter is helping me with it.

She looks at the broken override key.

Anya: So, he broke this?

Y/N: Yeah, but he's pretty embarrassed about it. So, let's just keep it between us.

She smiles.

Anya: I know somewhere we can make a new one. And we won't let him break it this time.

I nod.

Y/N: Look, I gotta ask. How'd your Y/N die?

She sighs.

Anya: Well, my Y/N was the first and only person I told that I was Spider-Woman and he helped me as my guy in the chair. He built my web shooters and made me this suit etc. Anyway, he then wanted to do more to help me. So, he tested my blood and was able to use it to give himself powers like me.

Y/N: And he became Spider-Man.

Anya: He did. And things were good for a few weeks until he started to change. He ended up becoming a giant mutant spider.

Y/N: Whoa.

Anya: Yeah. I had to fight him and he died before I could save him. It was my fault.

Y/N: I'm so sorry.

Anya: Thanks. And I'm sorry.

Y/N: For what?

Anya: Well, I know how hard it is to have try to figure this out on your own.

There's a moment of silence and she sighs.

Anya: I gotta say though, it's kinda nice not being the only Spider-Person around.

Y/N: Yeah, I bet. 

She smiles.

Anya: I never thought I'd meet anyone like me.

I look at her.

Y/N: Hey, so, if you ever decide to do friends again. I can always fill a slot. If you want that is.

She nods.

Anya: Thanks, Y/N. I'll keep you posted on that.

Y/N: Okay, cool.

Now all we need to do is get back to the city and get the key fixed.

Then I can blow up the Collider after sending Anya and Pete through it.
