A New World

Patrol Night

"Oh hell yeah I do"

~~~

You and Peter went in separate alleys to get into your hero gear. You tried just wearing your suit over your school clothes but found it very uncomfortable and decided to just wear a pair of Nike shorts and a sports bra underneath

You climbed up the fire escape to the roof just as Peter made it up there too.

"Jesus, we need to find a better changing spot," You told him, "This old lady looked out her window and at me! Though I think she was kind of blind, thought I was a cat..." Peter chuckled at your old lady story and let you climb on his back so the two of you could swing around Queens

The two of you merely just had fun swinging about the city, stopping the evil bike thief and doing some flips for a fan on the street. Peter made the two of you web hammocks between a water tower and a tall building so the two of you could take a small break

You dared Peter that he couldn't make it across three smaller building with just one web, knowing that he would fail and land on his face in the end (you may have tugged the string out from under him to make this happen)

You decided to conduct an experiment with your powers to see if you could use the water to help you get around easier

You tried water stepping stones in mid-air

- lost concentration and balance

tried to hover around on a ball of water between two buildings

-fell right through

made a water bubble around you

-worked perfectly

-you couldn't breath

You gave up after a while and turned to see Peter just hang up with Happy

"Why did I bring up the churro!" she sighed and started to change out his web fluid. You watched as the little vile slipped out of his hands and almost crashed on the pavement until you caught it in mid-air with a water bubble

"Nice catch!" Peter complimented you and continued to put the fluid into his suit

"Did Happy not answer?" You asked sitting by the brunette

"No," he sadly replied, "but I left yet another long voice mail telling him about patrol today." He shrugged and handed you your half of the churro

You shrugged and hummed as the two of you silently ate your halves of the churro and watched the city as everyone went on with their daily routine

You brushed off the cinnamon crumbs and stood on top of the metal railing, hands-on-hips taking in the scene before turning towards Peter and holding out your hand, "We gonna do this or what bug boy?" 

"Bug-boy?" He asked grabbing your hand to help him stand up now, "That's my name now?" you hummed a 'yes' and climbed onto his back

"I almost forgot! You still don't know what your hero name is yet!!" He reminded you

"Oh my gosh, I'm just a nameless superhero!" You realised, "I'll be lava girl." 

"That has nothing to do with your powers (Y/N)," Peter tossed the idea into a trash bin

"Sharkboy." You decided

"You're just naming the kids from that one movie aren't you?"

"Okay, Okay. I'll be serious." You playfully scrunched up your nose in deep thought

"I've got it!" You exclaimed after a long period of silence, "I'll now be called Riptide!!"

"Wow," he said, "I'm surprised that that was an actually good name. I'm impressed."
