The Amazing Spiderwoman [LMJ]

/ 7 /

Shawn Mendes was in deep trouble. He was tucked away in a warehouse, trying his best to hide in the shadows. He couldn't let anyone who came looking for him find him.

He cursed himself for getting into the position he was in.

I didn't even have to kill that old man. I could have just taken the car and left.

Every time he tried to justify the murder, he found that he couldn't. There was no reason that he had to kill the old man. He just wanted to kill for the sake of killing.

"I'm a monster..." he whispered. After saying this, he put the gun in his hand to his head, trying to force himself to pull the trigger.

C'mon you coward, do it! Right your wrongs!

His finger tightened, but he heard a a sound, like sneakers squeaking, so he stopped himself. "Who- Who's there?!"

He fired off a single bullet, just to let the person know that he's not to be messed with. Suddenly, he saw a shadow on the wall across from him. He shot two more bullets at the shadow.

"I'm warning you! Leave me alone!"

"No." replied a strange voice. Shawn was scared out of his mind now. Suddenly he felt himself being lifted off the ground by his jacket collar. He couldn't see anything but the glimmer of two angry eyes staring at him.

"Who are you?" asked the mysterious figure in an unnervingly calm tone.

"Who wants to know?" he replied.

"Wrong answer." said the voice.

Shawn was thrown clear across the warehouse. "AHHHHHH!" He smashed through a wooden table, and felt splinters stab through him all over. Before he could even move, he was being lifted up again.

"Now I'll ask again. Who ARE you?!"

"Shawn Mendes! Shawn Mendes! Please, don't hurt me!"

"You're pathetic." said the figure, who threw the crying Shawn down onto the ground.

That was too easy.

Lauren found the guy that killed Uncle Mike, and she had her spider-sense to thank for it. It led her right to the warehouse. She looked back, expecting to see the crying Shawn Mendes, but instead she saw the ground.

"Uh-oh." She whispered.

It was then she heard the click of a gun being cocked. Her spider-sense went off immediately, warning him to get out of the way. She jumped up, stuck to the ceiling, and waited to see the muzzle flash.

The flash was seen, and Lauren shot a web directly at it's position. He yanked hard, and a gun was brought up to the ceiling with it.

"Hey!" She heard Mendes yell. Luren smiled under the ski mask.

He's terrified.

Lauren jumped down to the ground and landed without a sound. She used her spider-sense to find Mendes, who was cowering in a corner. Lauren wanted to kill him, but she knew better. Instead, she tied the man up in webs and hung him from a light pole. Then she called the cops.

"Yeah, there's a guy here hanging from a light post. I think he's wrapped up in some sort of web. Come take a look." Lauren gave the address and hung up. She then climbed up to the roof and waited for the police to arrive. When they did, one of them said, "Hey, that's Mendes! The guy who killed Mike Jauregui!"

Lauren was relieved. Uncle Mike's killer was in custody. That's all that mattered. With that, she got up and ran home.
