Chapter 2- Power of A Kiss, Power of A Inheritor

Peter loved every second the kiss lasted. He felt true happiness again, for the first time in so long. True, sweet, incredible happiness.

He never thought he would fall for someone so quick as he did for her. A simple kiss was all it took. A great one at that!

When the kiss finally broke, the two were speechless, each craving more of the other. Witch finally broke the silence by saying, "That was... Nice actually... Very nice."

A large smile grew across her face while she blushed hard. "Yeah... It really was Wanda." Peter said while pulling down his mask.

"Maybe... Maybe we could do it again sometime?" The mutant said while giving Spider-Man a flirty look.

"Sounds like a date!" Peter said as he leaped off the roof. "Goodnight Wanda!" He shouted while free falling.

Wanda let out a small chuckle and whispered, "Goodnight Spider-Man, sweet dreams." Witch walked inside with a large smile on her face.

- The Next Day -

All Peter could think about was Wanda. It amazed him how a simple kiss could make him fall for her so easily

*SPIDER SENSE* "WHOA!" He shouted as a car came flying at him. He turned his head toward the street to see a large figure covered in a red and black full body costume.

"Who the hell are you supposed to be?" The web slinger asked the large figure. His suit was black all around, with a red stripe going from the top of his head, to the end of his back.

"Spider-Man... Just the totem I was looking for. I am Redback. And as much as I hate to say it, you have to die." The figure said in a raspy Russian accent.

"Redback? How generic can names get these days?!" Peter asked in a joking manner.

*SPIDER SENSE* Redback charged at Spider-Man with fangs forming out of his mask. He began to grow additional spider-like limbs trying to stab the web slinger.

"Whoa! Why can't I do that? Oh wait a minute... Nevermind about that!" Spidey said sarcastically.

"Do you ever shut up?" Redback shouted as began to become frustrated.

"No way in hell!" Peter shouted as he kicked Redback in the jaw. The kick sent him flying back into a brick wall.

Anger filled within Redback. Games were over. "I will not lose to you boy. I will kill you, then I will kill Morlun!" Redback roared in rage.

When Peter heard that name, he froze. 'But Morlun... He's dead...' He said in his thoughts.

*SPIDER SENSE* Redback leaped towards Spider-Man but something caught him by the foot in the process, it was Morlun.

"Fool, you can not kill me!" Morlun shouted as he slammed Redback into the ground.

He then lifted Redback into the air and threw him at a parked car. "I am immortal." Morlun whispered to Redback as he lifted him up by his throat.

"And you... You're just an appetizer." He said as he began to drain Redbacks life.

Peter couldn't believe that Morlun was back. He shot a web ball in Morluns eyes, forcing him to release Redback.

Redback was barely clinging on to life, Peter knew he wouldn't last much longer. "Cover... The eye..." Redback said to the hero with his last dying breath.

'The eye?' Peter thought. *SPIDER SENSE* Morlun lunged at Spidey with all his strength. Peter dodged the attack with ease.

"This... This is gonna be difficult." Peter said to himself.

- Meanwhile at the Avengers Tower -

Wanda had thought about Peter all day. He was the reason she is even smiling.

Something felt off to her though. Usually, Peter is at the tower by now. She began to get worried about him.

She knew it was a small thing to worry about considering how busy he is daily, but she couldn't help it. This was a new feeling to her.

Peter made her feel like she mattered in this world, even though she completely disagreed.

She began to hear several sirens going off. Police and ambulance sirens. "What's going on?" She asked herself, more worried now than she previously was.

She quickly turned on the news only to be filled with horror from what she saw. Peter was beaten to a bloody pulp.

His costume was torn in almost every section of it. His hands were covered with blood.

"Peter..." She whispered. Tears started to fill her eyes. She knew she had to find him. She set out on her own rescue mission to save Peter.

- Back to Peter and Morlun -

Peter could barely breathe. Every breath he took hurt. He wanted to just give up. But he knew so much was at stake. 'Not like this...' He thought to himself. 'I wont let him win...'

He then stood to his feet. "Hahaha, your determination intrigues me boy. Its a shame that you have to die today-" Morlun was cut off as Peter gave Morlun an uppercut.

The hit sent Morlun flying into the air. Spider-Man, using his last bit of strength, lifted up a large semi truck, and began smashing it into Morlun.

He was relentless, showing no mercy whatsoever. "Not like this." He said, looking proud of his victory.

Peter turned around and began to walk away. *SPIDER SENSE* Morlun then grabbed Peter's left eye and pulled it out with ease.

The web slinger, who had fought so hard for his life, fell to the ground in defeat. His heart beat had stopped. Spider-Man was dead. Morlun just stood over the corpse laughing.

He then whispered, "Delicious." He had vanished when the paramedics arrived, saving his meal for later on.

Scarlet Witch had just arrived, but she was too late. There laid the dead corpse of the one true friend she had. The only person who made her happy.

She screamed in anger, tears pouring down her face.

Paramedics lifted Peters corpse onto a stretcher and placed him in an ambulance. Witch got in the vehicle as well, wanting to share some last few moments with Peter.
