Edalyn's POV

A little while after Peter had left, I focused my attention to the mystery case. It was a small carry-on suitcase with a hard cover. I ran my hands along the side of it and found a button at the top and cautiously pressed it. The cased opened on its own, revealing a magnificent suit. I gasped and put a hand to my chest. It was beautiful. The head piece was a detailed head-band like mask. Strong metal ran down the bridge of the nose, extending across the forehead and slightly curving down along the cheek bones. A strong type of light orange glass covered the eyes, the suit itself was also pale orange and Seemed to shimmer in the slightest of light. There was a protective, yet flexible, maroon bands across each joint of the suit, including the waist. Then last but not least, on the back of the suit was a maroon circle, encircling around two white semi circles and another final maroon circle in the middle. I knew what Stark was trying to say. I was a protecter. A type of guardian, and I was to make sure nothing happened to Parker.
A huge grin took over my face, it was pretty much the coolest suit I had ever seen.
I told the Winsteads that I was going to go and try it out, they wished me luck and went to bed.
I eagerly pulled the suit on. The fabric felt weightless and hugged tight to my skin. The maroon bands automatically fitted themselves once the whole body suit was completely on. The only part that was missing, was the head piece. I picked it up with careful hands, as though the wrong movement could break the beautiful mask. But I knew better, this was a Stark suit and it's gonna take a lot more than simple drop to even scratch the suit. However, I couldn't help but to gingerly place the helmet like head-band on my face. The metal seemed to move and connect more fully with my face features. Lights appeared over the goggles and everywhere I looked was scanned by the mask.
I quickly braided my hair back and headed towards my window. Just before I could jump out, I heard Cassie's sing-song voice from down the hall. "Don't forget you have schoooooll!"
I shivered at the thought and hopped out the window. I let myself fall, just until I was a couple feet away from the ground, then I concentrated the energy around me into a beam that took its place under my feet. I smiled and glided forward, each time with a new energy beam under my feet, it felt a lot like ice skating, but better. I took a couple of gliding steps upwards until I reached the rooftop of our apartment complex. Due to the horrifying fact that I had school tomorrow, I didn't plan on staying up late or going too far. I messed with the suit, figuring out all the different ways it can enhance my powers. It mostly stabilized me and strengthened my force fields and barriers. Tony was serious about me protecting Peter. The maroon bands concentrated its own energy so that I could put up a shield or blade without second thought, which was pretty nifty. I tested out my blades and practiced using the pre-made concentrated energy that came from the maroon bands. I stayed on the roof for awhile, getting myself familiar with the suit. I smiled, this was starting to get pretty exciting, I glanced down at the lower left hand corner of my eye glass screen. The small clock read 4:26 a.m.
What? No. Way. I had not been up here that long!
"UGGH"
I quickly returned back to my room, put my suit away and climbed into bed angrily.
I hate school.

Peters POV

I groaned as my 5am alarm started to go off. Being Spider-Man meant that the only time I really had for studies, was early in the morning.
But it was a sacrifice I had to make. I reluctantly got out of my warm bed and drug myself to the bathroom. Lazily, I stripped my PJs and boxers off, and climbed into the shower. The warm water was awakening and fresh to my skin. After washing my hair, I let my mind wonder to Edalyn.
I smiled to myself when I remembered Mr. Winstead calling her Ed for short. It was weird at first but now it was just cute. I liked her freckles too.
I closed my eyes and let my thoughts wonder for a couple minutes more, then after quickly rinsing myself off, I hopped out of the shower. I put on my favorite pun shirt and threw on a green hoodie over it.
I headed back to the bathroom and actually did my hair AND put on cologne AND deodorant. Its Edalyn's first day and I'm pretty sure I'd be the one showing her the ropes. I smiled at the thought.
I worked on homework until it was time to leave. Then, with an apple in my mouth, I shoved my suit into my backpack, gave aunt May a wave, and headed out the door.
Today is gonna be great day.
At least that's what I thought before I heard sirens. I glanced down at my watch. I had time to take care of a small robbery, or whatever it was. I would take care of whatever was going on and then just swing really quickly to school... or at least to nearest alley way to change.
I slipped behind a dumpster and clumsily changed into my suit, then I shot a web to secure my back back and slung myself into the air.
"Karen, where did all those police cars go?"
"The abandoned church building on 2200 E street. There is a man with 3 kids hostage inside."
My mouth went a bit dry, armed men and hostages were hard to deal with.
"Peter, I also must remind you that Mr. Stark does not approve of you working alone anymore. You are to-"
"I know, I know! Just this one time Karen, I don't have time to track down Edalyn and take her to the site! This is serious, I've gotta save those kids"
Karen didn't respond to the comment, but just continually gave me instructions to the old church building.
Once the building was in sight, I kept my swings more discreet and hidden, the last thing I wanted was the criminal to panic and shoot someone. I was closer to the building now and peeked through a couple windows, trying to find where the hostages were being kept. I climbed up to the second floor and peeked in the window. There was nobody there, I double checked again, just to make sure and then I sneaked in.
"Karen, where's he keepin the kids?"
"In the main chapel area on the floor below you"
"Thanks Karen." I whispered and silently made my way to where the hostages were.
Once I got to the chapel area, I peaked in and my heart sank. The criminal seemed to be in his 30s and was holding an alien tech gun, hovering over the 3 terrified kids. They were only about 7 years old, or younger.
The man spoke into a small hand held walkie talkie; "I'm gonna give you all 60 seconds, and with every minute I'm gonna kill one of these kids, until you hand over the money." He must've stolen a police communicating device, and now he was threatening them for money.
While the man was distracted, talking into the walkie talkie, I climbed up the wall, hiding above a light fixture. The man had two different alien tech guns. One of the guns was the same one that took down the sub I went to all the time, but the other one was unfamiliar.
First thing I wanted to do was get the kids out of there and then I cou-
All of a sudden, I slipped. My hand caught the ceiling wrong and tapped against the light directly below me.
"What the-"
The man looked up and saw me. I had to act fast. I shot a web at the guns but he was faster, attaching one to his belt and the other pointed at the three tear stained faces.
"No! Dont!!" I shot a web to sling myself at him.
He pulled the trigger.
The flash from the weapon forced me to look away. When I looked back, debris and dust swirled in the air and I couldn't see past a couple feet in front of me.
"NO! Karen, are they- the kids? No this can't be.." I swung to where I remembered the kids being. I squinted, I thought I saw a light. Or beam. As the dust cleared I saw her. Edalyn stood in front of the three kids her hands stabilizing the force field around her. She looked up and made eye contact with me. She said something but it was hard to hear her with the walls of the force field around her. She mouthed it again to me.
"He's getting away"
I swirled around and saw the man with the unfamiliar gun, he shot the wall, but instead of destroying it, it seemed to open some sort of portal.
I charged him, and shot a web as he walked through the wall, but once again, I was too slow. My web connected with a solid wall that was just barely an opening a few seconds ago.
I cursed under my breath.
I turned my attention back to Edalyn and the kids. Her force field was down now and she had one of the younger kids in her arms, the other two clung to her legs. Having more time to take her in, I noticed her suit. She looked amazing in it but I couldn't help but notice that she looked worn out and a bit tired.
Within minutes police and parents were in the building, I gave information about the guns to the police and once all was settled, I left.
Edalyn must have left before me because she was gone when I looked back to where she had been standing.
