A/N: Hey there, True believers! Welcome to my other new story 'Spider-Man Vs Teen Titans'! And no, the title doesn't signify that the Teen Titans and Spider-Man are gonna fight, it means they're gonna team up to stop their most dangerous foes. I've decided to write this story because I think the DC and Marvel Universes should unite together to fight evil, not fight each other. And did you know that Marvel and DC Comics banded together once and formed the 'Super-Team Family' Comic series? There's even one called 'The new Teen Titans and The Amazing Spider-Man', but the issue itself is called 'To Heal a Hero', With Nightwing in the background saying 'He saved Gotham while Batman and I were away. Now it's our turn to save him.' But this story is gonna take place 6 months after the events of 'The Judas Contract'. But the Prologue takes place 6 months before, when Spider-man starts out. So in total, that means in this story, Spider-Man's been active for a year. Also, I'm pairing Spider-man with Raven, because I think they're more similar than people think, they've both been through too much in their lives, and I think they might be able to help each other. And I have something special planned for Raven at the end of the story. He's gonna be 1 inch taller than Blue Beetle, and he'll have a slightly larger bodybuild as Blue Beetle. And for Spider-Man's suit, I've decided for him to wear this concept art costume made for disney parks, created by Ryan Meinerding. Check it out, it's really cool. And to Ryan Meinerding, I say this… I just want you to know that I'm inspired by this really cool outfit. You rock, man, seriously.
Disclaimer: I own nothing, all character right go to DC Comics, Warner Bros. Animation, Marvel Comics, and Stan Lee (R.I.P).
Chapter 00: Prologue
It was 8:34 pm in New York City, and the streets were surprisingly quiet, even with all the cars driving all over the roads, until a scream from a scared, running 18 year old rang through the night. She was running from 2 thugs who were 'Trying to have a good time' with her. But she then found herself cornered in a dead end, no way out, and the thugs were coming in pretty close.
"Why are you running, baby?" Thug #1 said, licking his lips with excitement.
"We just wanna have some fun." Thug #2 said after.
"Someone, HELP!" She shouted up to the sky.
"Sorry baby, but nobody can help ya. But maybe we can." Thug #1 said as he pulled out a butterfly knife and pointed it at her, but then 2 seconds later, a strange white stringy substance shot down, grabbed the knife, and yanked it away.
"Didn't your mommy teach you not to play with knives?" A young, chipper voice said from above. They looked above them to see nothing, not even a fly.
"Who said that?" Thug #2 said, pulling out his switchblade knife, ready for a fight. But then another string like substance shot out from out nowhere, stuck itself on the knife, and snatched away from him. Then a blur of Red and Blue jumped down behind them, and he said "Behind you." which made them jump out of their boots.
What they saw was a kid wearing a crappy homemade costume, consisting of a red sleeveless hoodie with a black spider drawn onto the chest, blue tight sleeves, red and black gloves with big silver bracelets on the wrists, tight Blue pants, red knee length socks and red and black running shoes. A red ski mask with expressive goggles built in (I decided to start him off with his Homemade suit from Spider-Man: Homecoming). All in all, he looked like a rookie superhero.
"And who are you supposed to be? Superman's new sidekick?" Thug #1 attempted, but that insult was just terrible.
"Who, me? I'm just your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man." The newly named Spider-Man introduced. "Now I believe you owe this young lady over here an apology for trying to ruin her evening."
"Ruin? We were just gonna make it better." Thug #2 said.
"That's not what it looked like to me." Spider-Man said, the lenses in goggles narrowing, "So how about We celebrate your attempt at trying to rape this lovely lady with me kicking your asses?"
"Come and try it, bug." Thug #1 challenged as he balled up a fist, then he charged at Spider-Man, only to for the wallcrawler to block the punch with an opened palm, and the sound of a crunch could be heard through 2 blocks. Thug #2 thought his pal had already finished it, but the Thug #1 just started holding his hand while wailing in pain, until Spider-Man gave him a fast yet strong punch to the face, rendering him unconscious.
"Teddy!" Thug #2 exclaimed out of sheer disbelief, then he stomped over to the girl picked her up, and pulled his back up knife from his waist.
"Listen up here, Spider-Punk. I'm getting outta here, nice and slow. Try anything, and I'll slit her throat faster than you can punch a man out." He threatened, holding the knife up against the girls throat to show he means business. But then, faster than the eye can see, Spider-Man quickly shot out 2 web lines at the tug's knife and face, tugging both downward, allowing the girl to escape from the man's arms. While he was recovering, Spider-Man jumped into the air, spun around, and gave a hard punch to the tug's face, knocking him out cold.
"And that my friends, is what karmic justice looks like." Spider-Man jested, after looking at his handiwork.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" The girl exclaimed as she hugged Spider-Man, who was suddenly shocked by this action.
"Hey, it's all good. You're okay and they're out cold." He joked while he comforted the girl, but then she started crying into his shoulder, so he started rubbing her back while whispering to her "Shh, shh, it's okay, it's alright. They can't hurt you anymore. I promise."
(1 hour later)
After swinging her home, and webbing up those crooks for the cops, he returned to his regular patrol throughout the city, which was going pretty well, all things considered.
"Well, this wasn't a bad night. I stopped 3 rape attempts, 5 muggings, 2 car chases, 2 ATM robberies, and 6 assaults. This is quite a win for me, I even came out without a scratch." Spider-man said to himself as he sat on one of the eagle heads of the chrysler building. "But I'm not invincible, no one is."
"You got that right, kid. Not even I'm invincible, and I've got bulletproof skin." A heroic voice said from behind him, and when he turned around to see who said that, his lenses went so wide, they could pierce right through his goggles.
It was a man wearing an all dark blue bodysuit, with a red belt and a red diamond, red boots, no mask or gloves, a big red cape with a black stylized S, and a diamond shaped stylized S that was red and yellow. He was tall, powerfully built, with blue eyes, caucasian skin, and black hair with some tufts sticking down. Even an idiot could easily tell who this man was.
"Superman?!" Spider-man exclaimed out of pure shock. Superman chuckled at this action, crossed his powerful arms, floated down to stand, and said "That's my name."
"Anyways. I heard that there was a new hero here in New York, so I decided come and investigate, but I didn't come alone." He explained, then from out of nowhere, another tall and powerfully built hero emerged from above, and landed right next to Superman. He's wearing and all black and grey bat themed suit that looked more like armor, a cape that looked more like a cloak, and a cowl with long bat ears.
"Batman?" Spider-man asked out of complete surprise.
"Hello, Spider-Man." He said in a monotone voice. "As Superman explained earlier, we're here because we heard there was a new Hero has been operating in New York City for 2 weeks. So we decided to investigate." Batman explained, "I even observed some of your fights, nice work." he congratulated.
"Thanks. I try to do well." Spider-Man said while rubbing the back of his head. Being complimented on his work as a hero by professionals was not something he was counting on happening in his life.
"That's another reason we're here." Superman spoke up, "Huh?" Spider-man said confused. "Usually, Heroes do what they do because they want to help people, made a promise, or decided to profit from it. But why are you doing this, Spider-Man?" he explained and asked curiously. After a moment of silence, the Webhead gave out a sad sigh and said "Because I made a promise, and I want to help people."
"Can you explain?" Batman asked, but not with an usher in his voice to get more information this time, because he sensed that this was making him sad, "I understand that this is something personal, and probably something that you don't want to think about again, but I want you to know that you can trust us. So please, tell us, I'm truly curious." This statement from Batman made Superman widen his eyes in slight shock.
"All right. But you both my wanna sit down. Not sure how you'll react, but my story still might put some shock into ya." Spidey told them, so they sat down and started listening to Spider-Man's story.
And he told them everything, from when he went on that field trip to Oscorp Tower and got bitten by an experimental radioactive spider that escaped from his cage, to how he tried to cash in his powers on wrestling, how the fight promoter cheated him, and felt it wasn't his fault he got robbed. And how that soon came back to bite him in the ass when his Uncle Ben, the only father he ever had, was gunned down on the street and went after the guy who did it. And how as it turned out, the guy who killed his Uncle Ben, was the same guy who robbed the fight promoter, that part shocked even Batman to the core, and he was not the kind of man who could easily get shocked at anything. He told them of how 1 week after Uncle Ben's funeral, he promised to never use his powers for personal gain ever again, and use them to help others, and protect people from even the greatest of evils.
"Well… that's quite a story." Superman said after a moment of silence. "Y'know, another reason we came here was to see if you could put this hero thing off for a little while, and let us train you in how to be a hero. Hut after hearing a story like that, I don't think we can stop you at all."
"I can't stop what I'm doing, Superman. The most important and last thing my Uncle Ben taught me was 'With great power, comes great Responsibility'. For me, it means 'I have the power, and now I have to uphold the responsibility to protect the people of this city. " Spider-Man explained, then he added "And besides, if I leave for training, I can't keep my promise. And every second I stay away from the bad guys, is another second someone could get hurt, killed, or even raped."
Then, after 5 seconds of silence, Batman stood up walked over to the Wall Crawler, and said "I'm about to reveal my biggest secret to you, because I've been through something similar to you. So please, don't make me regret this." Then he took off his cowl to show a handsome face with black hair, blue eyes, and Caucasian skin.
"Bruce Wayne?" Spider-Man gasped, surprised that the Gotham Prince himself was the Caped Crusader all along.
"That's me. I take you know who I am not only through the news?" Bruce asked.
"Of course I do! I read all about your research about how nanotech can theoretically work as a secondary solution to big time problems like leaks in chemical plants, healing bad wounds, and even working as an engine to power." Spider-Man explained.
"I remember that." Bruce smiled, remembering when he wrote that theory, "I was hoping this could benefit the economy too."
"I wrote a paper on that for school last month, I got an A+." Spider-Man explained.
"Wow, really?" Bruce asked, a little surprised. Spidey just nodded his head to say 'Yes', "Wow, I didn't expect that."
"Well, despite the utter shock from me at Batman revealing his identity to you, I think it's best if I tell you to savor this moment." Superman spoke up after like, 5 minutes.
"Why?" Spider-Man asked, generally confused by that sentence.
"Because only the people Batman trusts the most knows who he really is under the mask." He answered.
"But anyways, my name is Clark Kent." He introduced.
"Clark Kent?" Spider-Man wondered, then he came to realization and said "Hey! I know you! I read your articles from time to time."
"Well, thanks. Always nice to know that people outside of Metropolis actually read the papers from the Daily Planet." Clark pointed out. Then Spider-Man thought for a moment on something, and when he decided on what next, he said "Okay, my turn." Then with a small struggle, he finally got his stupid mask off, showing a handsome teenage face with green eyes (Like in the new Spider-Man cartoon series), soft brown hair that went to the middle of his neck, and it was just as messy as beast boy's hair, but his hair style was the curtain (Like in the Ultimate Spider-Man comics).
"My name is Peter Parker." He introduced.
To say that Bruce and Clark were surprised by this was an understatement. This new hero was younger than they thought, so how should they react?
"How old are you?" Clark asked after a moment of silence.
"15." Peter answered. That shook the 2 heroes to the core! Spider-Man was only 15 years old?!
"Wow… I started my work as a hero when I was 22." Bruce said, "But 15? I guess that's a new record." Superman included.
"But this is actually no biggie, because there's actually a team of heroes consisting of only teenagers, so at least your not the only young hero out there." Superman explained, "But this does make you the first solo teenage hero."
"Well, I guess I'm honored." Peter quipped, making Superman chuckle.
"Anyways, I think we've overstayed our welcome, we should head on home now." Superman said as he began floating in the air.
"Right, but one last thing." Bruce said as he turned to look at Spider-Man, "is there any protective armor under that hoodie?"
"Actually, no. see I designed this suit for speed and agility, not strength and durability." peter explained, then put on his mask and asked, "Why are you asking?"
Bruce just put on his cowl and said "Just wondering."
"It was nice meeting you, Peter Parker." Superman said as he waved he shot up into the sky, and the Batwing came from out of nowhere, and Batman said "Until we meet again, Spider-Man." then he took out his grappling gun, shot it at a hook that came out of the jet, propelled himself up, entered the Batwing, and flew off back to Gotham.
"Wow." Peter said after 3 seconds, "Well I guess it's time to get back to work. Y'know what they say, 'Evil never sleeps'". He said as he jumped off the building, and started swinging to wherever there's trouble.
(1 year later)
It was June 5th, 2019. And you know what that means for the students of Midtown High.
"Summer!" Shouted a now 16 year old Peter Parker as he bursted out the front doors of Midtown High, excited to finally get out of that hellhole and start Summer break as Spider-Man. Peter was now in his normal attire, consisting of a grey zip up hoodie, a navy green T-Shirt, slightly baggy faded blue jeans, and black and white converse sneakers. Then heard his phone ringing, he looked at it, and saw that his Aunt May was calling.
"Hey, Aunt May." Peter said, answering the phone, "Yeah I'm heading to the City… No I'm not gonna get hurt… I'll be back before curfew… I promise, I won't be home so late after beating the crap out of some thugs… Okay, I'll be careful… Okay, love you too, bye." He said as he hung up. See, as it turns out, May knew Peter was Spider-Man all along. She's known since his first week as Spider-Man, and it was only 2 months when she caught him struggling to put his mask on in his room that she decided to tell him. She wasn't angry or upset that he was risking his life to protect those who can't protect themselves, as a matter of fact, she was proud. Her nephew was a hero, so why shouldn't she be proud?
Anyways, back to the story. After his talk with Aunt May on the phone, he started walking to the closest deserted alley to put on his suit. After finding a good one with a gate and no one around, he then started taking off his clothes until he was in his underwear, and pulled his suit out of his bag.
Ya see, on his birthday, August 10th, last year, Bruce Wayne came by with a large metal briefcase in one of his hands. Peter was honestly surprised by Bruce Wayne's arrival, but then he remembered he was Batman, so he stopped wondering. May welcomed Bruce into their house, of course. And while she went out to the backyard for some fresh air (and to water the plants), Bruce decided to show Peter what was in the case, and what was inside made him as giddy as an everyday school girl. It was a new suit, just for him (the Disney parks suit by Ryan Meinerding I talked about earlier), with red gloves completely covering the forearms, a web pattern on al the red parts, there was even a big red spider on the back of the suit, which was blue. And the sleeves was half red, and half blue, and it had red boots, and the waist was designed like a belt to keep extra web cartridges for his new silver high tech looking web shooters, and the mask was probably the best part. Instead of goggles, it was expressive eye lenses designed like they were in a glare (I'm using the classic cartoon lenses, not the cinematic ones). Peter was totally geeking out, until Bruce told him to calm down. Then they started wondering how they were gonna explain all of this to Aunt May.
But what they didn't know, was that May was watching them from behind, wondering what was going on. Peter then said that maybe he should tell her that he was Batman. Bruce said that was out of the book, and that they should say that he knew Peter was Spider-Man, and he wanted to help out. But then they heard May cough behind them, and they jumped right out of their boots, and then May explained how she knew Peter was Spider-Man from the start, and that she doesn't hate what he's doing, but she does worry. Anyways, they worked things out, Peter got to keep his new suit, blah blah blah, on with the show.
When Peter got the suit on, it was all baggy and loose, then he webbed his backpack onto the wall, and started walking further into the alley. And he pressed the spider symbol on his chest, and the suit shrunk until it was skintight, but still comfortable. Then he pressed the button that released the webs from his shooters, and the systems for his suit came online. His lenses kept on making expression after expression until they were ready for action.
Then he jumped onto the rooftop of the building he was standing next to, jumped off of that, and started swinging to the Daily Bugle headquarters, were he then landed on the sign and said "Well, this is it, the start of summer as full time Spider-Man. Can't get any better than that."
Then he heard the familiar sound of Police sirens from down below, looked down to see 3 police cars speeding through the streets, narrowed his lenses, and said "Looks like it's time to start the summer off with a punch to the bad guy's face." Then he jumped off the sign, followed the police cars, and went to where the trouble was big.
Meanwhile, at JFK Airport, a group consisting of 6 different people exited the front door. One of them was a normal guy, who was tall, handsome, with black hair brushed to the side, blue eyes, and a muscular acrobatic build. He's wearing a black T=Shirt, blue jeans, and white sneakers. This badass looking dude is Dick Grayson, AKA Nightwing.
Another was an absolutely gorgeous woman who was an inch taller than the man, with bright red hair, orange skin, all green eyes, and a bright smile. She's wearing a Yellow T-shirt, blue denim shorts, and pink sandals. This cheery personality is Princess Koriand'r of Tameran AKA Starfire.
The other 4 was a band of teenagers, one was a smokin' hot goth girl with pale skin, black hair, and purple eyes, no older than 15. She's wearing a black leather jacket, black fingerless gloves, a blue shirt that showed her chest, a denim skirt, a red and gold necklace, and black combat boots. This ravishing young lady is named Raven (she has no other name than Raven).
Another was a short, 15 year old boy with short, spiky black hair, green eyes, a scowl on his face, and Caucasian skin. He's wearing a crimson zip up hoodie with a tight black neck shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes. This scowling grump is Damian Wayne, AKA Robin.
Another was a Hispanic american boy about 16 years old, with dark brown hair, brown eyes, and mocha colored skin. He's wearing a blue button down, a black T-Shirt, gray jeans, and black sneakers. This cool looking brosef is Jaime Reyes, AKA Blue Beetle.
The final one was the oddball, he's he's about 15, got green skin, darker green hair, and green eyes. He's wearing a white and orange hoodie with the hood up, a blue baseball cap, brown jeans, and black and white converse shoes. This young man was Garfield Logan, AKA Beast Boy, the goof ball of the Teen Titans.
"Well, here we are! New York City, site of the start of our summer vacation!" Shouted an excited Garfield.
"Easy there, Gar. We haven't even entered the city yet." Jaime cautioned, trying to calm his green friend down.
"Are you kidding? This is the Big Apple, dude! If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere! Maybe we'll even meet Spider-Man." Garfield rambled on, along with Jaime failing to keep the Green Bean cool.
"We're already in New York for 1 minute, and Garfield is already geeking out." Raven pointed out in a monotone voice.
"I agree. It is not proper for someone to act so childish when we've only just entered the city." Damian said rather rudely.
"Ah, lighten up you two. He's just excited because he's in a new place. I know I'm excited." Dick told them, "Are you excited, Kor?"
"Oh boy, am I? Y'know I've honestly never been to New York, I wonder what it's like on the inside." Koriand'r replied, curious on what goes on in the city that never sleeps.
"Well, there's only one way to find out." Dick pointed out, then saw their taxi cab (which also happens to be a van, and told the group "Alright everyone! Grab your bags, it's time to head out!"
"Then he looked at Koriand'r, and said "Y'know Kor, I can already tell. Looks like this is gonna be the best summer ever."
"You think so?" Kor asked.
"I know so." Dick replied, then they grabbed their things and walked to their cab, ready for the summer that awaits them.
A/N: Hey there! True Believers! I hope you've enjoyed this prologue to my new story. And don't worry, there'll be plenty of other chapters along the way, and just so you know, anytime I'm not making new chapters is when I'm either busy with something else, or when I i'm just taking off from writing for a little bit. Also, I just had to write this story or I would have forgotten the idea for this story, or lost my mind. Anyways, as always, stay beautiful, stay awesome, and peace out.
