Trapped with No Way Out

Day 1

Peter watched in morbid curiosity as Norman Osborn strode into the Midtown gymnasium. On the bleachers sat hundreds of students, all different ages from 6th graders to 12th. They all watched expectantly as he walked in with a black magic hat. One you'd see a magician use, but he was composed. Giving nothing of his true intentions as he stood in front of the huge crowd.

"Midtown students" He greeted, immediately getting an uproar from the eager children, all waiting to see who would get the one in a lifetime opportunity for a high schooler to intern for one of the top tech companies. "I know why you are all here today, and I am so excited to be here"

A teacher walked up to him and he leaned down to hear what she had to say. Peter couldn't help but feel like there was something else in the motivation to suddenly want to do this. It wasn't like anybody knew about his internship for Mr. Stark though. Mr. Morita whispered something into Mr. Osborn's ear. "Okay, change of plans, we're going to hurry this up because there's another event I have to go to"

Something in the way he said 'event' made the teen concerned, it sounded off for some reason. He wasn't sure but it was just, there. Norman got himself under control wiping invisible wrinkles from his suit. "As you all know" He boomed into the provided microphone, "We are taking in one intern out of all of you to come intern for me over the summer. We will be choosing that person today."

With a wide smile on his face, he picked an envelope from the hat. His eyes landed on Peter's though. A look so cold that Peter almost missed it before vanishing instantly as if it had never been there in the first place. "Drum roll please!!!"

The sounds of students stomping their feet echoed throughout the large room bouncing off the walls and hurting Peters enhanced healing. In vain, he tried to place his hands to block out some of the overwhelming sounds.

"Peter Parker!" Peter's hands slowly moved from his sensitive ears, locking eyes with the multi-millionaire. No, this wasn't supposed to be how it went down. He squeezed his eyes shut before placing a-what he hoped was a sincere smile on his face and walked down to the center where a certificate was waiting.

"Thank you" He whispered timidly accepting the invitation as the man held up Peter's hand in the air as if he'd just won a boxing match. With a nod, Normal hurried out of the gym and into a fancy limo as everyone went back to their usual. Peter glanced at the certificate not missing the small SM in the top left-hand corner. This wasn't good in the slightest.

"Ned!" Peter whisper-yelled when everyone dispersed, and they were gathered around their lockers. Ned's head shot up with wild eyes, hurrying over to where his friend currently resided.

"Peter, what happened? You just won and was it was supposed to happen, did you know? Why didn't you tell me? I mean he was kind of looking at you the entire time? Well, not kind of, really looking at you? It was super creepy, did you find it creepy? I did"

"Ned" Peter cut off Ned's word vomit. Ned blushed furiously but motioned for Peter to continue, "He knows"

Ned held back an audible gasp. Peter nodded fright taking over his body. Anxiety washed over him in a wave of nervousness and dread. If Osborn knew that he was spiderman that obviously he wanted to work at the company for other reasons. Experiments perhaps? Maybe a soldier?

"What if he wants to replicate the serum" Their eyes widened as Peter began frantically fishing his phone from his worn out bag. Even though the bag was barely 2 months old, Peter had not been very say...kind? to it, throwing it against walls and webbing them there. Opening the phone app he rang Mr. Stark's speed dial.
