"Who am I? You sure you wanna know? The story of my life is not for the faint of heart. If somebody told you it was a happy little tale, if somebody told you I was just your average, ordinary guy and not a care in the world, somebody lied."

No, no as much as I like that intro maybe I should try something else. Hmmm, how about...

"We all have secrets, the ones we keep, and the ones that are kept from us."

Hmmm, maybe but it still doesn't feel right. Maybe I can try from the MCU, oh wait they didn't give him a monologue in that version so what does that leave me with...

Okay let's give the truth a try... my name is Carlos and believe it or not I am Spider-Man. Okay I know what you're probably thinking...

"You can't be Spider-Man, he is a guy named Peter Parker, or Miles Morales, or Miguel O'Hara" or perhaps something along the lines of "Spider-Man is a comic book character and not a real person" well in each instance you'd be correct, but what if I told you that the situation I now find myself in was literally out of this world. Get it, it's out of this word cuz I'm not on... oh you got it, okay but why aren't laughing... you know what never mind let's just get back to basics. So I'm from Earth, probably the same one you're existing in right now, but as of several months ago I have been living in a world called Remnant with my little brother not only adjusting to a new life but also becoming students at a place called Beacon Academy, sounds familiar doesn't it. Well it should cuz if we're from the same Earth than you should already be familiar with where we are. I also know you're probably asking "How did the two of us even end up here and why am I saying I'm Spider-Man?" All good questions, but if you wanna know we have to start at the beginning, and just so we're clear I'm not talking about the beginning of creation because that's a subject for another time, I mean the beginning of how this happened and all I can honestly say is that it started with my brother and I playing one of our favorite games and him kicking my butt...again.

(Location: Earth)

(Time: 2:15 p.m.)

(9 hours, 45 minutes until new life begins)

In a typical city there exists a certain home, in that certain home lives a normal family, within that normal family there are...

Okay you know what I tried to get a little creative with this but it's starting to give me a headache so I'm going to level with you, right now both my brother and I are at home relaxing on a typical Friday just playing some games and generally having a good time, or at least he was since he tends to beat me in most of our matches. Anyway we've been at it for about an hour and we decided that this was going to be the last one for now.

Carlos:Okay Spider-Man don't let me down now, you too X, I really need at least one win today.

Jonathan:Since you're picking your best I guess I'll do the same, Iron Man and Zero for me.

Carlos: Alright, since you picked them I'll use the time stone against them.

Jonathan: Okay if you're using time against me, I'll simply use reality against you.

I picked at random and the stage we got was the Xgard Throne Room, as the intro for our characters played I was really hoping that if I won it wasn't because Jonathan was going easy on me, soon our fight began with both of us switching out our mains and fighting robot v.s. robot with X and Zero clashing against one another. After taking a couple of hits I switched to Spider-Man and used his superior acrobatics to gain a slight edge, only for my brother to bring in Iron Man and keep me at a distance. I tried using the time stone in combination with switching characters and it worked for a bit but my brother knows my fighting style rather well and it wasn't long until he came up with a strategy against it. As the fight went on it eventually ended with Spider-Man against Iron Man and my brother just used the reality stones full power to cause several elemental attacks with every button input, my health was pretty good but if I screwed up here I was toast so I had to just endure for now. Just as I thought it was over I got blind sighted by a lightning strike and it gave Iron Man an opening to use the proton cannon leaving me with a small bit of my health left.

Carlos: (Alright it's now or never!)

My time stone was at full power so I activated it allowing Spider-Man to execute his combos faster than normal and I utilized his mobility to its fullest as I zipped across the screen and attacking as fast as possible and getting out of danger just as quickly. We both had a tiny sliver of health left and the next person to make a mistake was finished, we both moved around not daring to make a mistake and as my stones power was about to run out I managed to hit Iron Man with webbing that let me finish him off with Spider-Man's hyper combo.

Carlos/Spider-Man: Maximum Spider, with great power, comes a great beat down!!

Annoincer: Hyper Combo K.O. !!!

Spider-Man: All in a days work for your friendly, neighborhood Spider-Man!!

Carlos: Finally!!!!

Jonathan: Oh well, good game.

I tell ya, every time I play against him my heart rate sky rockets over how well Jonathan knows my patterns and essentially beats me 9 out of 10 times. Still I couldn't complain, I at least got a win with my favorite superhero so not bad. As I got back in bed I decided to watch some RWBY on my phone while Jonathan watched some videos online for game tips. Ever since the show first came out I always thought to myself how awesome it would be to live in their world, to have awesome powers and transforming weapons and train to fight monsters sounds like an adventure I wouldn't mind being a part of. Yes I am fully aware of the possible dangers that are present as well, but still the chance to be something greater than who I am now, wouldn't you want to try something like that? I've been asked by friends who like this series what I would have as my weapons and semblance of choice and to me the answer is pretty easy; I would want dual blades that turned into pistols and for my semblance just give me the powers of Spider-Man. I know it's going to sound cliche but for as long as I can remember I've always wanted to be like Spider-Man, he became my first favorite superhero and one I greatly admire and respect, as for using dual blades, well why not?

Jonathan: What are you watching right now?

Carlos: I'm just watching RWBY, I'm on the episode when they have the food fight.

Jonathan: Oh okay.

As for my brother, knowing him he would definitely want to have Iron Man's abilities that allowed him to communicate with technology like in the comics, and his weapons of choice would be nanotechnology since he can form them into whatever he needs in an instant. Still even though the reality for us was that we exist in this world, it didn't stop me from wondering what if I did go to Remnant and become that version of myself. Little did I know that in just a couple of hours that our lives were about to get a lot more interesting.
