Spider Man: The story of Judith Gallander





You must have heard this story many times, how a person becomes the super hero. I personally laugh at the thought of people admiring the hero or heroine. Yeah, its not everyday that you meet the actual hero or become one. You could say I was just like Peter Parker, smart, shy, not popular, well the Peter Parker I use to know. He was just like me, but ever since I found out he became Spider man, and actually got the girl of his dreams, he completely changed. To me, he changed, but to other's, he was just the same Peter Parker we all knew, except for the part that he was Spider Man. You wonder how I knew who he really was? Well its quite easy, its because I'm obsessed of him, everything he is, everything he was. Well, you must find complicated to believe, but I'm just the opposite of him. I will tell you the story on how I met Spider man, and the challenge I encountered with him, my feelings, my pain and my sufferings.

I grew up in a pore family. I had two sisters, which they were both three and two years older than me. My mom and dad weren't the ordinary parents. They fought a lot, argued a lot, I wasn't happy neither with them nor with my two bratty sisters. We move in the fall when I turn twelve. I loved where we lived. It was a beautiful city and I loved the street we lived in, but my parents didn't like it. We had no choice living there. My father just found work, and they were not about to let it go and be pore once again. My father worked in a construction site, getting paid little money, but enough to survive. I ran down the crowded street, with many kids playing together. A boy, who I thought was my age, was playing alone with his toy cars. I noticed how sad he was because he had no friends, while the other kids played happily with their best friends. I personally knew how he felt, cause I was in the same position as he was. I walked up to him and stood there, like an idiot and I didn't know what to say. When I saw him from up close I instantly fell in love with him. It was weird how I felt, but all I felt was a sudden pull towards him, well at my age, I didn't know what it was until I reached my high school years. He noticed me and didn't say a words at first, probably thinking how a freak I was with my big round glasses and pitch black hair tied up in two ponytails. He had glasses has well, but a little less round than mine, or freighting I would say.

"Hello." He finally spoke.

"Hum, hi." The words simply came out in a rush. Next thing I knew a girl with red hair ran pass me and grabbed his arms.

"Peter, come play with me." She begged. The boy couldn't say no, cause I saw in his eyes that he liked her. So he left me alone, thinking how stupid I was for not even asking his name. I knew I would regret it for the rest of my life, so I thought.

Days passed, which turned into years and then high school freshmen year. I was really nervous since it was my first day in high school. I wasn't really popular or friendly, so what people told me. I walked down the corridor to my first period wearing my normal gear. A loose tan top turtleneck with was black, with a long black skirt and long black socks and black shoes. Yep, I was a gothic. Well, I don't believe the devil or want to worship him, but I just loved the color black. It went well with my black rounded glasses and black hair, which I had it in a high ponytail.

I walked into the classroom, scanning the room for a place to sit. Way in the back, near the window was a free space. I liked it there cause not many people was around me and I could look outside when I would think the teacher was to boring for me. The teacher finally came in and introduced himself.

"Good morning class, my name is Edward Thomson, just call me Mr. Thomson. Well I see we have a full class and I would like it for you all to introduce yourselves, starting by your name and what is your talent, which this is a art studio, we would all like to know what you like to do best." Well this is going to be interesting. I thought to myself. People passed before me, until my turn came. I felt everyone staring at me, and made me nervous. I stood up and played with the bottom of my shirt. I heard other kids laugh, but sneer thoughts to each other. I looked around the room, until I saw someone s standing in front of the room. I don't think his turn came up, but I felt that I knew him from somewhere. With his glasses, and light brown hair, his dark bleu eyes staring at me. I was in a daze until I heard the teacher grunt for my response and other students laughing.

"Hum, miss?" He said. I looked back at Mr. Thomson.

"Oh, sorry sir, my name is Judith Gallander and what I like to do, is…is..." I couldn't speak, his eyes were staring at me, and I felt like I was going to pass out. I couldn't even speak. Hearing more laughing and the teaching trying to make me speak, I finaly spoke out.

"I don't have any talent." I said out loud.

"Well Ms Gallander…you must have at least one thing that you like to do or good at?" He tried convincing me, but I couldn't even think, or react.

"No I don't have any." And with that I sat down and tried not to stare at his intense eyes. Call me crazy but I think he recognized me.

Life seemed a living hell for me. Being pore and trying to fight my way into high school, I wasn't happy. I hated walking down the hallway and being called ugly Gallander, freak and other names. I just walked by and pretended it didn't hurt me. I grew obsessed with Peter Parker. I would fallow him sometimes after school, since he didn't live far from me. He was the same has we all knew him. The shy, geeky guy, that many people especially Flash Thompson teases. He wasn't one of my favorites. And the girl he had a crush on, the beautiful and popular Mary Jane Watson. I envy her sometimes, but other times, I hated her, despised her. I hated that she was so beautiful, so popular, and made Peter notice her. Yes, I was in love with Peter Parker.

I walked into my house and saw that it wasn't cleaned. I was getting tired of this. I hated my life; I hated my family, and most of all I hated myself. Call it teenager crisis but I really hated myself. I went up to my room and turned on my stereo, full blast. I laid on my bed just thinking mostly until I heard loud footsteps coming up the stairs. Loud banging was heard from my door. My father came in, looking drunk and totally pissed.

"Shut that Goddamn stereo." He yelled out at me. I ran to my radio and hit the power button, making it totally silent in my room except for my heavy breathing. He came towards me and grabbed my shoulders harshly. I didn't know what to do or say. I never expected what he would do next, nor would I forget. He raped me that night, and it changed me completely. I was no longer the shy, teased, nerdy girl anymore. It seemed like something awoken inside of me that was hidden deep inside my soul.

When my senior year came, my whole family was thorn apart. My sisters moved away with their husbands, and my mother leaving my father, and for sure I wasn't going to stay with him, not after what he done with me. So, I had to move in the streets. I finished Hight School and graduated with honors. Many teachers's told me that I would become a great scientist one day, someone important, they say. I wanted to laugh in their faces. My scientist? Yeah right!

Well I should tell you the part when I found out who Peter Parker really was instead of my life story well here it comes. I moved in the big city, trying desperately to find a job. You wonder what I'm doing in the streets when I could be in college studying to become a lawyer or a Doctor? Well, to tell the truth, I didn't feel like it. I was walking down the street, bumping into the crowded people hoping I could have a glimpse of Spider Man. Some people screamed that they saw Spider man swinging over him. He had a girl in his arms, so I was told. I ran quickly hoping that I might catch him. With my camera in my hands, I pumped against people, even making some fall down.

"Shit!" I cursed loosing sight of him. This been the fourth time this week that I missed him and it was pissing me off. I needed to get that picture so that I could get the reward that the Daily Burgle wrote in their papers. I was broke and my rent was due this Sunday. It was a busy Friday afternoon. The worker's just finished work, and was rushing home. I didn't care that the crowd was bumping into me, pushing.

I arrived in my apartment with my small kitten waiting by the door. I let out a breath of irritation and sat down on my hand chair. Fluffy jumped on my lap and purred softly. I felt the floor shacking and the whole apartment started to shake, almost like if there was an earthquake. I didn't know what to do, so I pick up my kitten and my camera and moved away from the couch. All of a sudden the wall exploded and a figure dress in green and someone dress in red came crashing into my living room. I was pushed violently against the wall, almost knocking me unconscious. I opened my eyes slowly, feeling the pain in my neck and lower back I winced in pain. I saw Spider man battling against HobGoblin. I grabbed my camera, not even thinking and took a picture. They must of notice me cause I had it on flash and it brighten the room. The HobGoblin saw me and gave one of his sinister laughs and threw something at me. I tried backing up, but I cried out in pain. I think I broken my foot. This was it this was the end. At least I had my picture I wanted for so long. Talk about up close and personal. Yep those were my final thoughts before I thought I was going to die.

I felt something grabbing me and pulling me towards him. I opened my eyes after I heard the loud explosion, thinking that I was dead. I felt a hard body pressed against mine, holding me closely towards the body. I looked up and met a pair of covered eyes. Spider man…I whispered.

"Hold on." He told me and I did so. Holding against his neck, bringing my legs around his, and he went out the window. Sending a string of his web. I held him tightly cause I was afraid of heights. I saw the HobGoblin rushing out of my burned apartment and coming towards us.

"He's coming back!" I cried out to him.

"I'm going to drop you down, and I want you to run away from here to a safe place. All right?" He told me. I said yes and he dropped me off. I watched him leave with HobGoblin in his hot pursuit. I held my camera close, since it was the only thing I had left from my apartment.

"Shit, I have no where to go now." I said out loud. I was angry and cold and hungry. I had nowhere to go.

"Well, here I am, back to zero." And with that I walked away in the dark street, hoping to find shelter. At least I got this lousy picture; I might get some money from the Daily Bugle
