The New Ultimate Spider-Man V1

Prologue: Spider Bite

xXx

It was a cool November day.

The normal smell of gasoline mixed with hotdog vendor carts filled the New York air.

I was walking to school with my best friend Joey.

Joey and I aren't nerds, we aren't jocks, and we aren't really in a group.

We just existed.

I guess that's all we wanted.

The only ones who notice us are the people who pick us last in kickball and the teachers.

We attended Midtown High in Queens and were in the eleventh grade.

"Hey Ryan, did you do that essay in English class yet?" Joey asked.

"Yeah I finished, didn't you?" I asked.

"Almost, I brought my flash drive in case I get a chance to use a computer in the library in study hall," he said producing a blue flash drive from his pocket.

"Nice," I said with a slight chuckle.

WEOOW! WEOOW! WEOOW!

Police sirens raged as a pair of NYPD squad cars raced after a minivan.

"Super Hero comin' through!"

A figure swinging, literally swinging from a web, swung onto the top of the car.

It was Spider-Man.

Spider-Man is just one of the many superheroes all over the world.

He catches hell all the time from the publisher of the Daily Bugle.

J. Jonah Jameson.

Of course it laid off after that massive title wave six months ago and J.J. wrote his obituary.

Spider-Man shot two webs at the hood and yanked it off.

He then jumped onto the side of the car shooting webs at the engine forcing it to stop. A tall man got out of the car.

Spider-Man landed in front of him.

The man threw a punch but Spider-Man easily dodged it.

He then, grabbed his wrist slammed him against the car webbing him there.

He fled the scene swinging out of sight.

I nudged Joey who was frozen watching the police.

"Let's go dude," I said.

Joey nodded and we quietly walked to school.

xXx

It was around seven o' clock when my doorbell rang.

"I got it!" I yelled.

I ran downstairs and opened the door to Joey.

"Hey dude, can I sleep over tonight?" he asked.

"Mom! Dad! Can Joey stay over tonight?" I yelled into the kitchen where they were preparing dinner.

"Sure honey!" mom replied.

Joey had two bags of chips and a bottle of melted cheese.

"I have a bottle of Coke and some videogames in my backpack. Now let's hurry up to your room before I collapse," he said.

We ran upstairs.

I stopped at a door decorated with flowers and opened the door.

"And you, don't bother us," I said to my younger sister Abigail.

She looked like me sort of.

Brown hair and green eyes.

She rolled her eyes.

"Whatever," she muttered returning her focus to her dolls.

I closed the door and walked into my room.

Joey had his sleeping bag laid out in the corner of the room.

We began playing videogames for a while until my parents called us down for dinner.

We ate went back up and played more videogames.

Joey and I finally fell asleep at around eleven o'clock.

xXx

FABOOM!

I jolted awake.

"Joey?" I mumbled.

"I'm up. What the hell happened?" he asked groggily.

"I dunno," I muttered.

I heard footsteps coming down the hall and the front door opening.

I looked at Joey as he went to open the door.

We ran downstairs and opened the front door.

The first thing I noticed was flames and smoke everywhere.

Then I noticed the large crowd and my family running towards it.

"Can somebody call 911! I-is anyone a doctor?" a feminine voice yelled.

When I got to the crowd I had to tippy-toe to see above everyone's heads.

There were two girls from my school in the middle uh I believe Mary Jane Watson and Gwen Stacey.

Then I took another look and saw… May Parker! My mom is friends with her! I remember last year we had thanksgiving with them.

Then I saw Spider-Man- no Peter Parker. Peter Parker is Spider-Man!

I guess I would be satisfied with the discovery of this if he were still alive.

Peter's limp body was being cradled by Mary Jane as she was crying over him.

I looked away.

Everything else was a blur.

Joey returned home with his parents.

I couldn't sleep.

This was the death of Spider-Man.

xXx

Midtown High was closed for the next two weeks.

Forest Hills was blocked off.

I felt I needed to help so I decided to go down to the Parker home and see if there was anything I could do.

I told my parents I was going to take a walk for an hour or so.

I walked past the dried blood and the yellow cards marked 1,2,3,4 etc.

I shoved my hands in my hood pockets.

I stopped in front of a yellow house.

The Parker home.

I took a deep breath and walked up to the front porch.

I rang the doorbell.

The door opened to reveal Gwen Stacey.

She scowled at me.

"Go away," she growled closing the door halfway before May Parker stopped her.

"Come in dear," she said.

Gwen hesitantly opened the door and ran upstairs.

I closed it behind me.

The kitchen was empty and there were a couple of open boxes on the table.

"What do you need dear?" she asked.

"I-I was um just coming to see if you guys needed any help," I said.

"Well now that you asked, Gwen and I were packing to move away after the funeral and we needed help putting all the boxes in the garage," she said.

"Oh I can do that," I said.

"Thank you, Ryan I believe?" she asked.

"Yes ma'am," I said.

xXx

The black spider crawled out of the basement slithering into the garage of the Parker home.

It fixed its eight eyes on a boy.

The boy was disturbing its peace.

The spider went on the offensive and crawled to the floor going until it crawled up the boys leg and waited.

xXx

I was stacking boxes for two hours until I was finished.

Mrs. Parker offered me refreshments a couple of times but I refused.

When I was finished Mrs. Parker gave me her thanks and I went home.

I walked into my room.

I turned on the T.V. in my room and watched Ghost Busters for a while.

A sharp pain screamed in my leg.

A fat black spider with an orange 0 on its back crawled out of my pants leg.

I stepped on it tearing my sock off that had the spider's guts on it and threw it in the trash.

My vision went blurry I ran to the bathroom throwing up.

"Ugh…" I groaned.

I stumbled into my room closing my door.

I fell on my bed and blacked out.

xXx

I woke up with no pain.

I looked at my alarm clock.

11:49 A.M.

It was Saturday!

I sat up rolling up my right pants leg.

There was a large white clump.

Now I KNOW I've already hit puberty so what the hell was this?

I prodded at it with my index finger.

It was sticky and rough.

Spider.

Webs?

WEBS!

Oh my God!

I tore it off.

There was a small bump where the spider bit me.

I sighed and walked into the bathroom.

I opened the sink and accidently broke the nozzle off.

Cold water sprayed all over the bathroom.

I threw a towel over it.

I ran outside at speeds I could never reach before.

What did that spider do to me?

I walked around for a while.

I heard voices.

"Hey! Catch loser!" yelled a senior from school.

A football flew at me.

I felt a buzz in the back of my neck and my body went into auto pilot as I flipped back onto my hands kicking the football back towards the guys.

"Ow! Damnit!" he yelled.

"Get 'em!" he snapped.

Two boys chased me.

I ran fast but they were gaining on me, so I took to the alley.

I ran there letting them catch up to me.

My boy went back to instinct like earlier.

I noticed a fire escape ladder to my right I ran up the wall two steps jumping off of it.

I grabbed the ladder, spun, and then kicked the two guys in the face.

They fell on their butts.

"What the hell was that? I'm getting outta here!" they yelled running away.

I dropped down.

Agility.

Strength.

Spider.

Webs.

I looked at the wall.

I placed my right hand on it the my left foot.

Repeat.

Repeat.

Before I knew it I was crawling up a wall.

My eyes widened in shock.

I took off running on the rooftop.

I jumped the gap without hesitation hearing the honking off horns and the yelling.

I hit the other roof breaking into a roll and taking off running again.

I reached another wall and ran up it.

Crawling.

Agility.

Strength.

Spider.

Webs.

Spider-Man.

The Ultimate Spider-Man.

The New Ultimate Spider-Man.

I grinned.

I spread my arms out and shouted with glee.
