The Spider-Girlfriend (Completed)

Chapter 13: Keep On The Fight

The Lizard sits in his chair with his head resting on his fist. Soon, Mysterio and Scorpion came in. "We've done it," they told him. 

"Good," he said taking his head off his fist. Resting his hands on his knees, he tells them "I want them to suffer. They took away Vulture and I will make them regret it. They will understand and know pain." 

"We're here to help you," Mysterio and Scorpion replied. 

"Good. And once we've dealt with them, Norman will suffer," Lizard told them. 

Both Mysterio and Scorpion smiled. "We love the sound of that," they retorted. 

"Your sadism. It pleases me," Lizard replied. "Rhino." 

"Yes, Connors?" he asked in his thick Russian accent.

"What'd you call me?" 

"I mean, Lizard." 

The Lizard stands up and tells him "I want you to rampage. I want to discover Spiderman's and Ghost-Spider's identities." 

"Excuse," Scorpion said. 

"Yes?" 

"I don't mean to question you but, how will discover their identities by having Aleksei rampage?" Scorpion asked. 

The Lizard chuckles. "Do not question me. I already have it all planned out." 

It was bright in the morning of Manhattan New York. The teenager known as Y/N Parker wakes up and struggles to get out of bed. Despite the poison being out of his system, his body still felt weak. 

Not to mention what happened to him mentally. His mind was still hung up on what happened that night and what went down with Gwen. He knew his mind was playing tricks on him and uncle Ben would never say those things to him.

But he couldn't help but think about the words his hallucination spoke. It all came from his mind. He lied to Gwen, he lied to his aunt, he got his uncle killed, he got his ex-girlfriend's mother killed. 

All of the weight was on him. He couldn't help but cry knowing that he's the reason for all of it because of his pettiness against the man for not giving him 3000 dollars and instead getting 300 dollars.  

How could he call himself a hero after all of this? He couldn't handle it. But he knew that he couldn't give up on life. He was in despair but will pull himself out with hope. Hope that he can make a difference and use his powers to make up for what he did. 

Yes, his actions lead to the deaths of two people and hurt two more, but he was still going to keep going and try to make up for what he did. To use his powers for good and be a hero that can install hope into others and allow them to sleep soundly without worrying about tomorrow. 

So, he got himself out of bed and got ready for school. It was early but he didn't care. He got dressed and left his room to eat breakfast. He simply made a bowl of cereal and was ready to head for school. 

He hasn't said bye to his aunt, but he figured that she didn't want to speak with him just yet. Knowing her kind nature, he figured that she would forgive him but just needed time to process it all. 

Something like that is not easily gotten over and would need a lot of time to understand it and come to a conclusion. He understood that and left the house to go to school and spend the rest of his day protecting this city and trying to stop the Lizard. 

He ran as fast as he could to not be late like how he usually is. Luckily, he reached school and entered his first class to see Connors. "Mr. Connors?" Y/N said questioningly.
