(Peter POV)
Y/D/N = your dads name

I press the call back button. Y/N answers in exactly two and a half rings.

"Peter Anthony Stark! Why haven't you answered me? I mean, I'm not trying to be one of those girlfriends, but we always walk home together. That or you tell me you can't make it. Why didn't you tell me? I got kinda worried?"

"Well hello to you too." I tease.

She scoffs, but I can hear the smile behind it. "What is going on? Why were you zoned out in lunch today?"

"I just was I guess."

"That is literally the dumbest excuse I ever heard."

"I was! I'm weird, what can I say?" I laugh. It's not a real laugh. I actually feel terrible about this. She doesn't deserve this at all.

"You are weird. That's why I love you. But why did you ditch walking home? You could have at least told me you couldn't make it. I wouldn't have minded." She says, gentler this time.

"I'm sorry." I mumble.

She sighs. "It's okay Peter, but you don't have to hide stuff from me okay? I mean, yeah we've only been dating like, six months, but I still care about you. You don't have to tell me what your doing every second of the day, but I would like to know at least a few things. Okay?"

"Okay."

"Promise?"

"I promise."

"Good."

"I love you. I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I love you too."

We continue to talk and catch up. I still was able to skirt around telling her why I ditched. Which I felt bad about, but I'm not ready for her to know I'm Spider-Man yet. Not with this new villain guy out there.
I tell her I'll walk her to school in the morning, which seems to make her happier. We eventually hang up, and I try to go to sleep. I keep thinking about that scar guy. I need to stop calling him 'that scar guy'. I could just call him Scar? That's kind of a cool villain name. Okay, Scar it is.  Instead of falling asleep, I just keep myself awake more. I finally just get tired of it and patrol all night instead. I stop a car thief, a few muggers, etc. Just the same old Spidey stuff. Then around 4am I get an alert from Karen.

"I have found a hospital record of the man you've been looking for Peter." Karen says. I sit up abruptly from where I was laying on a roof top. "Really? What do you got on him?" I ask excitedly. "I only have his last name and an initial, J. Matthews. He was hospitalized for bullet wounds and a concussion not long after your last fight. I've only found one criminal record, he was charged for murder a year ago. And has had several motorcycle speeding tickets. That's all I have at the moment. I'll keep a search going for his first name." She says. I think for a moment. Murder? This guy is worse then I thought. That can't be good. "Have there been any sightings of him? Security footage?" I ask. Karen does a search.

"There have only been four sightings of him in the past two days. Once in a shop that seems to sell chemicals, in that pawn shop you caught him in, in a hardware store, and going into an abandoned warehouse." Karen displays them for me to see. "He must be building something. And stealing everything he needs to build said thing." I swing my legs over the side of the building I'm on. "Where is that old warehouse you said he went into Karen?" I ask. She pulls an address up on my screen. "It's located Queens. About fifteen miles from here." She says. Should I go check it out now? Or is that too much trouble to mess with now? I need to catch him. Maybe that's his secret lair or something. I could just check it out. I don't even have to go inside.

I start to head that way. I get there and walk over to a window. It's too dark to see anything. I slowly climb inside. So much for not coming in. I walk down some stairs, and find a door. It's the only door in the room. There's some sort of password lock on it. I get Karen to hack it, with a new feature dad added to my suit, and the door opens. I wait to go inside. To make sure no one is gonna come busting outta there. It's all clear though. I walk in, and I find an office type thing. With a big long table full of blue prints. I pick one up and look at it. It's a complete blue print of avengers tower. Where we all live. I notice little x's in certain spots on the blueprint. There's a note up at the top. 'Explosives to be planted in designated spots (shown with x's)' The note says. Then it clicks in my mind. Explosives. Panic and dread immediately floods my veins.

Explosives? Real explosives? He's gonna blow up the tower. He's gonna try to kill mom, and dad, and Harley, and Morgan, and everyone else. Oh my god. I have to stop this. I make sure Karen has footage of all the blue prints, then I start to leave. But as I'm going back down a hall to get to the stairs, I see another office with a name plaque on the desk. I'm even more shocked when I read the name.
