"Parker!"

Peter snapped his head up from his computer screen as he heard J. Jonah Jameson (J. Jameson as he shortens it) call him (more like yell at). Phasing back into reality, he remembered was at the Daily Bugle barely able to keep his eyes open due to the new "Murderous Spiderman" problem that had appeared about a week ago. Which, as much as he hated, had a nice ring to it.

Peter was 99% sure he didn't murder anyone, though last night he was pretty tired and he did want to punch something... The number of eye witness accounts of this new "Spiderman" really outnumbered his "Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman" good deeds. But it got him thinking, 'Why would a murderer go around 1) destroying a superhero's already established good name and 2) leave enough people unharmed for eye witness reports?' Unless the "Murderous Spiderman" (MS) wanted the real Spiderman to know- to find out.

If that was the case, why not just write "Spiderman I'm looking for you, call me" on a skyscraper? 'Probably would be difficult though...' Peter thought, he tapped his index finger on the laptop's mouse scrolling through the eye witness reports. Let's just say that the discovery of MS made it much easier for J. Jameson to call Spiderman a "Wall-Crawling-Freak" (You thought I wad gonna say menace, hah. Or at least some of you did...) the eye witnesses described MS's costume pretty close to Peter's; spandex, full body covering, white and black eyes. All the same except for a few saying instead of red and blue it was red and black, witnesses also report two katanas being on MS's back as well as guns, how many? Unclear.

Interesting, now all Peter had to do was somehow figure out how to, 1.) get a picture of MS for the Bugle, 2.) not get murdered by MS (hence the name) 3.) Write a good Spiderman degrading story for the newspaper about it so Peter could keep his job but not degrading enough where Spiderman couldn't recover and 4.) find out who or what MS is and why he's doing this.Wouldn't be the first time something crazy happened, crazy was Peter's life now.

"Parker get that story on my desk my tomorrow or your job will be on the line!" J. Jameson shouted. Peter absently nodded and prayed to anyone out there that he could leave soon. Peter wanted to go be Spiderman, kick ass and fight crime. 'Heh,' he thought 'who would've thought New York's Superhero worked for a newspaper. What a great cover.

As soon- as soon as the clock ended his shift for the day Peter grabbed his bag and ran like there was a gas leak next to a raging fire. Out the door in seconds flat he ran into an elevator and mashed the buttons like his life depended on it. Once he reached the ground floor, he quickly found somewhere to slip into his suit and continue to swing out the front door and into freedom. He felt the wind on his mask and it was a relief, as much pain by being Spiderman has caused him he had to admit it was also the source of his happiness. How many people could say that they kick criminal ass everyday when they leave a room!?

Of course the relief was short lived as he heard multiple gun shots. (Oh boy, who could that be???) Peter sighed and quickly turned his head followed by his body in the direction of the gun shots, thwappng (Thwapping? Swinging? Webbing?) His way there.

Emerging from a dark alley a masked man covered in blood appeared, people scattered and screamed. With his gun unscathed, the masked man grabbed a civilian by their coat, lifting them up in the air and cocking a gun to the side of the civilian's head.
