1. Chapter 1

He was sat on the top of the empire state building. This was his favorite place in the whole city of New York. The morning sun was rising high in the sky. He took a deep breath of fresh air. Peter Parker had the mask above his head. He was confident he wasn't going to get caught this high up. He would usually come here after the end of a long night and just wait and calm himself down after a long night of adrenaline. He must have stopped three hundred criminals that night. He yawned and said to himself "time to pack it in for now." He placed the mask over his face and jumped off the building.

His instincts kicked in and he spun his web and started to swing from web to web. Suddenly his spider sense started to go off. He looked down to see a group of kids chasing one other kid. "Really? I need to sort out bullying now" he grunted to himself.

"Get her!" shouted the group. A girl was running away from a group of her kids her own age. She ran down the back alley. She gasped when she saw a high barbed wire gate blocking her path. She jumped on the side bins and jumped as high as she could up the wired fence. However she slipped and fell. She looked up to see the group was above her. "Give us the money!" a boy demanded. "I only have $3. I need to make it last all week" she grunted. "We don't care!" another boy grunted. "Get her!" a girl shouted.

They were about to beat her up, when a man in blue and red jumped down and slowly rose high above their height. "How about before beating on someone think about how you would like it!" Spider Man shouted. All the kids lost their big act and ran away. He turned to the girl and asked "are you ok?" He helped her up as she answered "I'm fine. No money was stolen this time."

"Come on kid. I'll take you home" he said. "No point Spider man, I live on the streets" she explained. "Really?" he asked, surprised. He looked at her properly and noticed her clothes were dirty and too big for her. He had $100 in his pocket from his low pay from JJ at the bugle. That money was to go towards his rent for the next week. But he had somewhere to stay, a roof over his head, hot food. This poor kid had nowhere. "Here." He handed her the $100. The girl stared up at him in shock and asked "why would you give this to me?" she asked. "I save people, but it would be nice to help someone for a change. Make it last kid" he said, as he placed his hand on top of her head. "Thank you Spider man" she smiled. "See you around" Spider man said as he jumped and web swung away.
