Peter lost everything when he was four-years-old. His parents, his Aunt May and Uncle Ben, all in an unfortunate car crash. Since then, Peter found himself in foster care, but, no one ever wanted him, and Peter was somewhat happy because of it. He had been put into a home once and only once and he never wanted to go back to one. All he was was a burden and carried nothing but bad luck. Besides, he was literally Spiderman, he didn't know how he could hide that from his caretaker. No one wanted him, or did they?
After a traumatic experience at age 6, Peter Parker hasn't spoken a word. Most blame it on the fact that he witnessed his Uncle die in a horrible fire, this is only partly true.

Peter's life as Spider-Man wasn't easy before and now with a manipulative and abusive guardian, things only get more complicated but he's still determined to listen to his uncles words: "With great power comes great responsibility)
