A Beautiful Thing (Spideychelle) UNDER EDITING

With new heroes comes new villians

Michelle POV
After that moment of promise I felt at the fact I may be out of that hell hole eventually, Tony asks everyone to leave so he can do the medical tests as usual. They go without hesitation and Peter said he had some homework to finish

"We're gonna do something a little different today" Tony smirks

"Whats that?" I ask curiously. He reaches for the blinds so that no one can see in before asking me to do something I didn't think would crop up this early

"Shoot a web," he tells me

"What?? I can't do that" I reply baffled.

"Yes you can" he insists "Just make your hand into the shape he does and believe in yourself"

I follow his orders, curling my middle fingers and thumb in and jerking my hand forward many times. I can't do it for the life of me, I just look like an idiot.

"Come on Michelle, believe in yourself" he demands "Imagine that the web that your shooting will save lives. Feel it inside of you, hold level and shoot."

I hold my elbow back and everything else in a right angle form. I imagine the web travelling through my veins and burning through my bloodstream. Then, I summon all my mental courage to a singular point in my temple before jolting my hand slightly and out of my fingertips comes one powder white, lace-like string that weaved itself in mid-air and stuck to the wall.

"I did it, I actually did it" I squeal, surprised at my own ability

"See I knew you could" he smiles getting some spray to dissolve my first creation.

Beaming at the fact that I could actually be a superhero, I shoot another and then another. Each one was getting stronger and it was getting easier with every shot. We then moved on to shooting and using that to swing across. It was the most movement I had done in days and I was quickly tiring but it felt magical like this was the start of me being a hero rather than some guy you see on TV or the people I read about in books.

Peter POV
I was absent-mindedly doing math homework, waiting for MJ to be free when I start to see a red light flashing. There is no noise but it seems pretty important

"Pepper does this mean something," I ask her as she prepares food for tonight's dinner. She turns around only just noticing the blinking alarm system.

"Oh, that means the police have been notified about something not normal in the near vicinity. Tony will see it and go in a second"

"Not if I get there first," I say, running to grab my suit from the other room. I see Pepper roll her eyes but she doesn't try to stop me. Or maybe she did? Either way, I blocked it out and started to swing out into the main city

"Karen, where is this happening" I inquire

"Downtown New York" the AI informs me, continuing to give me the exact location.

I go there as fast as I can. I make my way through new york city until I catch a glimpse of him out of my peripheral vision and turn to see him from the top of a large hotel building. He is a ginger man dressed in all black with katanas at his sides. While I am watching from within the shadows I see him tap a button on the back of his neck which covers his face with a matching mask. I drop down, surprising him for a brief moment.

"Hey buddy," I say sarcastically

"Ahh spiderman" He whispers in a signature villain tone "I know a lot about you." I get closer to him as he draws out his katana "Why don't we go somewhere a little quieter" and before I have time to reacts, he pulls me closer to him and initiates rocket launches to carry us to the top of a supermarket.

"What is this?" I ask demandedly.

"Well this is just a little fight isn't it?" he speaks trying (and failing) to stab me with his sword as I swing around his head. "You see I don't like heroes but you, oh you are the worst by far. Why? Because you just have to burden other people with it don't you? Give other people powers that they didn't wish for? Like that girlfriend of yours, I can't think of her name."

"What are you talking about" I yell gasping for air as I fought this delusional man.

"Michelle Jones that was it, you thought you saved her life, but really you ruined it" he continues through the battle. I don't know what it was but every time I heard her name I got incredibly angered, she didn't deserve to be talked about that way. I repeat my statement again but he just continues, claiming he knows everything about me.

Raging, I don't let this guy get much further. I steal his swords and destroy his rocket launchers with webs. I chase him to the edge of the rooftop where he turns in an attempt not to fall off, however, it backfires and he trips. I hold his katana, getting ready to stab him.

"So what actually is your superpower before I stab you"

"Oh Parker, I know things, I know things about people, every one of those people down there, I know how they work, how they function, their reason for life"

At that moment I can't take it and I drive the sword through his chest.

"I will be back" he murmurs "I will be back"
