Captain Stacy picks up the picture
Captain Stacy (Looking at the picture)

Spider-man
Me too buddy me too
Spider-man in his mind
How am I going to do this? I have to make it tonight there is no way I cannot escape this. Maybe I can make it late?
Spider-man in his mind nodding is head left and right
(Internal thoughts) Spider-man
No! I can't. I have to make it
Spider-man
Sandy, I forgot
Spider-man
What's wrong with me. Uncle Ben peter remember. I have to find Sandman before I can do anything
Spider-man pats his gargoyle friend and jumps off
Spider-man
See yeah George!
As spider-man jumps, he turns around mid-air and swings with one hand
Near the edge of midtown and uptown 6:00
Spider-man swings down and hangs in his classic yo-yo way
Spider-man in his mind
Where is Marko? I have to find him.
Wait a minute he is hard set on cash correct so? The biggest bank in new york! That's where he will be
Spider-man continues swinging till he sees a car get smashed around
Police begin to surround a man who is killing and taking down cops
Spider-man
Marko!
Spider-man lands head first at Marko punching him
Spider-man
Marko, I know about your family
Sandman grabs Spidey by his leg and slams him right down on the pavement
Spider-man
Ow!
Sandman puts his hand down flourishing a large amount of sand
Sandman
How do you know about my family!
Sandman slowly stops releasing sand to let spidey talk
Spider-man
I know that they love you. That they care
Sandman grabs him by constructing a forklift
Sandman
You don't know shit about me
Spider-man
Yes! I do!
Spider-man goes up and kicks him
Sandman
You do know that doesn't do crap right
Spider-man jumps over to web a fire hydrant and push down on the water in order to direct it towards Sandman
Sandman
What are you doing
Close up of spidey
(Internal thoughts) Spider-man
I know one thing. Sand hates water and water hates sand. He I got an idea.
Sandman begins to become mud
Immediately Sandman begins to reconstruct himself
Spider-man
Oh no
Cut to sandman slapping spider-man up in to the air on to the top of a skyscraper
Spider-man
Goddamnit! This hurts
Spider-man quickly grabs reaches to his belt in order to click on the button to call Markos family
Sandman gets on top to quickly construct his hands into swords
Sandman
Any last words whatever the hell you are?
Spider-man looks up
Spider-man
Yeah, you need a sandwich
Spider-man dodges sandman's attacks and jumps over
Spider-man keeps punching sandman while he is smiling
Sandman
You really are a goddamn idiot
Spider-man quickly gets pushed by his constructed hammer to being slammed down into a convenience store
Spider-man
Goddamn.
Sandman lands down
Spider-man in his mind
If I can douse sandman in a barrage of water bottles then maybe just maybe I will be able to take him down.
Sandman walks closer
Spider-man webs with his two arms the glass freezers and quickly pulls hard to douse sandman
Spider-man jumps to crawl on the side of the glass window to then flip jump over to the ground
He quickly web rodeos the 24 packs of water
Spider-man
Now that is why it's called a convenience store
Spider-man notices sandman is still not down
He quickly goes over towards him laying down two punches left and right
Sandman constructs a big hand and grabs him
Sandman
I may be still fittled in mud, but I am still going to kill you
Markos family enters the shop
Elena
Marko st, p please!
Spider-man quickly turns around
Sandman
Mandy honey
Spider-man is let go from the mounts of sand holding him
Sandman walks towards his family
Sandman
What have I done
Elena
You can't be doing this. Money is not everything
Sandman
Yes it is Elena
Elena
what happened to the flint Marko who used to build things for the need. What happened to the man I loved?
Sandman begins to turn into sand
Sandman
I'm sorry, but he is dead.
Sandman pushes his family outside blocking the store with his sand.
Spider-man
Marko!
Spider-man finally begins to web up the tiles in every place around the store
Spider-man locates the pipes and begins to pull every single one of them to finally turn Marko into nothing but mud
Spider-man
I am sorry Marko
Spider-man opens his pouch to take out a vile and slides the small pile of mud.
Spider-man walks out to see Elena
Spider-man
I'm so sorry
Spider-man hands the vile to the police
He jumps and swings off
Spider-man lands to realize it is nine thirty
He crouches and goes down into silence
Midtown high
Peter walks to his locker
He opens it to see Gwen across smiling while talking to one of her friends
Peter closes his locks his locker and turns around to see Gwen smiling and looking away quickly next to flash

Peter

Aunt May

Peter smiles
Peter
Thanks, aunt may
Peter gets up and hugs her tightly
Aunt may

Peter
Oh, that's just the sand that is around those trees. You know the ones around the city that got planted a few years ago.
Aunt may
Oh Peter
Peter

The screen transitions as we see the parker household turn off the lights

Spider-man
No matter what the odds are the sacrifices. I always have to be spider-man no matter the costs. Today I just realized my life as peter parker will never be that simple or even work. I just know with great power also comes with great responsibility
Spider-man swings forward and begins to jump all around and swing more
He reaches the empire state building
Spider-man looks from on top of the empire state building new york glowing
