New York. June 2007. Y/n's age: 22 (3 years after the battle with Lizard)
Y/n POV
It's morning. I'm swinging through town in my new suit that Gwen designed for me. The spider mark on its back is much bigger and longer, and color blue is dominating. After everything that happened three years ago, we managed to come to an understanding, and we have been together for two and a half years now. I told her about the promise I made to her father. But we decided that these are our lives and we would make the choices in them. Despite everything, I still see him dying before my eyes or hear his voice in my nightmares. "Leave Gwen out of it." I also lost my job JJJ fired me from Daily Bugle. But my best friend Harry recommended me to his father and I was hired as an assistant to Dr. Octavius at Oscorp. My dream finally came true, working at Oscorp, I have to admit it's as great as I imagined it would be.

This is a new suit.
But back to you. I was just swinging through town. "What do you got for me today, New York?"
I jumped around the corner of one of the skyscrapers and a helicopter appeared behind me. "Reporting live from New York 1 helicopter. An unknown criminal has broken into the bank and is fleeing north. A police chase is underway," the reporter from the helicopter said.
"All right. Let's get to work."
I quickly caught up with the police units and took off after the bad guy. He was wearing a black and yellow metal suit and strange gloves, probably his weapon, but he wasn't using it yet.
"Hey, Mr. Criminal. My name is Spider-Man. Would you stop already? It would be so much easier for everyone."
"Give it up. You're never gonna catch me."
"I wouldn't be so sure." I still wonder why criminals choose this city. New York is the only place in the world protected by a superhero 24/7, so why do they attack here? Although I guess I shouldn't complain, I'd be useless if crime dropped to zero.
"I don't wanna hurt you. It'll just slow me down." I love it when villains care for me; it's so sweet. It didn't matter that he had just thrown a couple of cars with people in them at me. I quickly caught them and continued after him.
"Hey, if you don't want to kill me, then why are you trying to?"
I kept swinging after him performing some tricks in the air. Instead of swinging as fast as I could, I started enjoying it, after my existential crisis of a few months 3 years ago, I fell in love with being Spider-Man again. This lightness in the air, this agility, this strength, this spider-sense, of course, I didn't forget about responsibility, but I don't do it anymore because I promised someone but of my own free will enjoying every moment when I have my red and blue suit on.
Mr. Criminal stopped, turned, and shot an vibration beam at me from his gloves. My spider sense kicked in, but I was too slow, and the beam knocked me to the ground. "What was that?"
