Chapter 2: With Great Power
His eyes widened under his mask as he saw the two heroes walk up to him. "Wow…. Batman and Aqualad, wait I thought he was Aquaman's partner and don't you have like four partners already." Said Spider-Man.
"We need your help." Said Batman. Spider-Man stared at him, "I'm sorry, I must had heard you wrong, it sounded like your asking for my help."
"He did. I was just as surprised as you are. "Captain Stacy said. Spider-Man just continued to stare at the two other heroes. Then he started laughing, "And they say Bats doesn't have a sense of humor. Alright where are the mini bat cameras."
"He's not joking, Spider-Man." Said Aqualad. "Six years ago, Nightwing, Kid Flash, Superboy, Miss Martian, and I, became a stealth team for the Justice League. We found out an organization of super villains known as the Light used Starro biotech to control the Justice League to attack an alien planet so the could summon the Reach to Earth which brought Mongul to attempt to destroy the Earth just to not only control his War World but to make Luthor could run for President."
"Great bad enough Doom ruling Latveria. Now, Lex Luthor is running for President of the U.S. What next, Joker becoming mayor of Gotham city?" He asked sarcastically. "So, what does this have to do with me?"
"We want you to join the Team and helps stop them." Said Batman. Spider-Man began to walk away, "Sorry, I've got my hands full with Doom, besides I work solo."
"We're serious, Peter Parker." Said Batman. Which made Spider-Man stop where he was, "You three know?"
"I known you were Peter for a few months now and never told a soul, not even my own daughter." Said Captain Stacy. "Batman managed to figure it out on his on his own."
"And I only told Aqualad because he is the leader of the Team. Besides the three of us no one else knows your identity." Said Batman. Seeing Spider-Man still wasn't so sure Aqualad tried a different approach. "'With great power, comes great responsibility.' Good words from a good man." Said Aqualad.
"Uncle Ben was the best." Said Peter sadly. Before he became a hero, he used his powers to try to become famous as Spider-Man. When crook robbing a store, he didn't stop as he ran past him. A few days later, a mugger shot his Uncle. When he caught his Uncle's murder, he found out it was the same crook he could have stopped when had the chance. That's when decided to take his Uncle's words to heart and stared help people even though Jameson was calling him a menace. "Peter, Dr. Fate and Zatanna intercepted a prophecy but it was fuzzy. However, we do know that only you can stop the Light." Said Auqalad.
"With training from both the League and the Team we are certain that you will be ready will be ready to stop the Light." Said Batman. Spider-Man took a few minutes to process this. Responsibility was going to up a notch. Not only he was going to need going need to protect the city; he was going to be need to protect the world from the Light and Dr. Doom. "I would say no, but the last time I looked the other way it coast my Uncle Ben's life. I'm in!" said Spider-Man
Aqualad was happy that Spider-Man agreed to help. "Meet me at the old abandon theater in New York and I will get you up to the Watchtower." Said Aqualad.
With that Spider-Man, start to swing home. With a quick change, he began to walk the rest of the way. On his way he ran into Gwen Stacy. "Oh, there you are Peter. I wanted to talk to today but you weren't at your Aunt's."
"Sorry, Gwen…I…I was caught up studying at the Library. What did you need?" asked Peter. "Well tomorrow is your Uncle's birthday and well, Harry and I wanted to get together with you and your Aunt to celebrate. "Uh…I might be late, I just joined a club, but I will be there." Said Peter. He almost forgot, his Uncle's birthday was tomorrow.
"Oh, okay, contrasts on the club. It would nice to make a few more friends." Said Gwen. Gwen and Harry had been Peter's only friends in his childhood. He hardly had any friends maybe he would make some on the Team he thought.
"Yeah, maybe I could introduce you to them." He suggested.
After a few minutes of awkward silence, Gwen then said, "Well I better be going." Peter responded, "Yeah see you later."
They departed each other and they both went home. When Peter arrived home, Peter's Aunt May came up to him. "Peter, how was your day?" She asked.
"It was fine, I just joined a club." He responded. Aunt May walked up to him and hugged him, "Oh, that wonderful. Maybe, you can invite some of your new friends over for Ben's birthday."
"Uh...I only met the leader of the club. I'll met some of the others tomorrow and maybe late for the party but I will be there tomorrow." he responded.
"Invite them anyways, you could use some new friends." Said Aunt May. "Now wash up and get ready for dinner, you have a long day tomorrow."
"Yes, Ma'am" Said Peter as he went to go wash his hands. She was right tomorrow was going to be a big day.
Meanwhile, from the few blocks away from Peter's house. Someone was watching the whole event from a tall building. He was known as the Red Hood, "What makes you so special, Mr. Parker" He said to himself.
