Ajax is just a junior in high school, just there to get in and get out. She keeps to herself and stays behind the scenes but that changes when she's assigned to work with Peter Parker on a project. She's had her eyes on him since freshman year but never talked to him. Peter, on the hand, noticed her at the beginning of the year and had been too nervous to talk to her. Now, the two were to work together. With that comes an unexpected friendship, but, friendships mean secrets. Before Ajax knows it, her secrets are spilling out too fast for her to pick up the pieces, leaving her and Peter in a downward spiral. Now, one question remains: Will either of them make it out alive?

QUENTIN BECK/MYSTERIO IS GOOD!
TONY IS ACTUALLY ALIVE!
Peter is all alone after Tony's death, May was killed in a hit and run and his friends are all older than him now in university/collage. He closes off and becomes more mature, smart and determined. He is more reckless though, not caring if he lives or dies on missions or patrol.
One day he meets Quentin Beck, who changes everything. He is a superhero named Mysterio and has elemental powers. They become very close friends, rather like uncle and nephew. Slowly, he begins to close the gap in Peters life and they become New York's favourite duo.
Little does the world know, that Anthony Edward Stark/Ironman...is alive. He was in a coma for three months but is now on his feet. The only people who know are: Pepper, Morgan, Happy and Rhodey.
Tony hears about the new duo and watches them on TV. He admits they are a great duo but deep down he is jealous. It used to be Ironman and Spider-Man against the world. Peter was one of the only people he let close to him and he was practically his kid but now he is Quentins.
Turns out Peter may be more of his kid then he thinks...Peter may or may not be a Stark.
