Chapter 6: Hide

Let's be honest, Peter didn't think he would have to hide from every single person on this planet. Why did it seem like everyone was out to get him? First Toomes, then Thanos, then Hydra and now the fricken government. To make matters worse, the government is coming for both Peter and Spider-Man. Well technically they're looking for the same person but they don't know that. Also it doesn't help the DeadPool keeps saying to watch out for moving trains.

I should probably catch you up huh? Well it started when Peter decided to go on a night patrol. To see if Hydra made any moves around New York. Yes, he covered every single inch of New York. Thank Thor that Matt caught him and got the rest of the Defenders to help, even if Peter didn't say exactly what he was doing. It was a 'normal' patrol. This 'normal' patrol was interrupted when suddenly someone shot at Peter while he was in mid-swing.

"Woah!" Peter exclaimed.

"What happened Spider-Kid?" Jess asked through the comms Peter gave them.

"Someone just shot a tranquilizer dart at me," Peter said as he landed on the roof of a building. Ducking behind one of the pillars there. Looking around Peter couldn't see anything. Until a piece of movement caught his eye. Peter had Karen send out Droney to see what it was. "What the..."

Droney was showing a two men in a black car. The drivers window was open and the driver was talking to someone on a phone.

"He got away." Silence. "Okay." More silence. "We're on our way." With that the man hung up.

"Well?" His partner asked.

"Ross isn't happy."

Droney flew back to Peter as the men drove away. Later in the day Peter finally got the courage to enter his and May's apartment. That's when bad news number 3000 came knocking at the door. Peter looked through the peep hole only to see two officers.

"CPS. Anyone home?" One of the officers yelled out.

Of course, thank you Parker Luck. Cursing his curse of non-existent luck, Peter was in a dilemma. Either swing away and deal with the consequences later or just suck it up and face. Peter decided that he would just face them now. If anything, he could convince them that he's turning eighteen soon anyway so maybe they'll let him go.

"Um... hi." Peter greeted, already regretting his choices.

"You Peter Parker?" One of the officers asked.

"Yes."

"I'm Officer Jude this is my partner Officer Dan. We're here to take you into the foster system considering that you are under eighteen and have no other living relatives."

"Um... can I have a minute?"

"Of course."

Peter shut the door and grabbed his phone and quickly dialled Matt. Thankfully he answered after the second ring.

"Peter? Why are you calling?"

"Um... CPS is here and uh..."

"You were wondering if I could get you out of the system?"

"Can you?"

"I could try but why don't you just ask Stark to adopt you?"

"What!? I-I can't just ask him that!"

"Why not?"

"What am I supposed to say!? Oh by the way my aunt's dead and I have no other living relatives so could you just adopt me?"

"Yes!"

"No! Can you help me or not?" Peter sighed frustratedly.

"Yeah, yeah. I'll be there." Matt hung up and Peter sighed again, running a hand through his hair.

"Everything okay is there Mr. Parker!" Officer Jude called.

"Yes!" Pete opened the door. "I just called in my lawyer. He should be here any minute."

As if on cue, Matt comes walking in.

"Hello I'll be representing Mr. Parker."

That part of Peter's story is messy and confusing. Although Matt was able to get the government off his back.

"Thanks."

"Don't sweat it kid. Anything else you need help with? Maybe I can get even with all the favours you've done for me and the team." Matt laughed.

"Do you know what Wade means by 'look out for moving trains? Cause seriously out of all the weird things he's said that one came out of nowhere!"

"I have no idea. But Wade will be Wade."

Peter groans, "I guess."

"Cheer up Pete. Don't let him get to your head."

"Yeah, yeah. Thanks again."

Matt didn't respond and instead just walked away. Peter rolled his eyes with a smirk as he watched Matt pretend that he needed the probing cane to navigate the streets of New York. Shaking his head Peter pulled his hood up and started walking in the other direction.

'Admit it. You didn't want to ask Tony to adopt you because you believe that you aren't worth their time.' The voice said.

"No, I just don't want to burden him. He already has Morgan to take care of."

'Right, sure. Whatever you say.'

"What do you want anyway? Why are you back?"

'You can't get rid of me duh. Might as well get use to me popping up, providing you with the reality.'

Peter rolled his eyes.

'Roll your eyes all you want cause it's true.'

"Whatever."
