4.) Illusions

"Everyone, get your hands up in the air now!" Yelled a red unshaven large man wearing a yellow shirt and black pants as he decides to rob a bank. Baron Mammoth is just an up and running criminal who is usually known for his brute strength.

"C'mon, get the money already." Ordered a skinny man with black bowl hair, a black beard on his lower lip, and wears a black t-shirt and white jeans. Arthur Light is another run of the mill criminal that is known for his engineering skills.

Baron, along with Arthur, held their guns towards the bank tellers, but their guns were taken by some kind of web fluid. Baron and Arthur wondered where their guns went, but then they hear a voice.

"Didn't your moms told you to never play with guns, Barry and Arty?" Up on the ceiling of the bank, is Garfield Logan in his Spider-Man persona. He even made some improvements of his costume, which fits his build. His red mask now have lenses that makes him look more like a bug, his costume is now just red and blue pajama- like spandex with web patterns all over. He also has a black spider symbol on his chest, and a large red one on his back with blue shoulder part of his costume.

"Oh man, it's Spider-Man!" Baron told his partner just before he was easily webbed up by Spider-Man's webshooters.

Arthur was about to make a run for it, but Spider-Man shoots his webshooters towards Arthur "C'mon, Barry, Arty, join the party!" Spider-Man quipped as he traps Arthur with Baron in the spider web.

"What is this stuff?" Baron asked as he's struggles to escape the web, but failed.

"Sorry, but I have no time to explain, gotta jet!" Spider-Man quipped as he swings out of the bank, leaving Baron and Arthur stuck until the police gets them.

"Sorry, but I'm not really interested in dating right now." Garfield said.

Standing in the hallway next to his locker, Kitten Avril, the same girl who took interest in Garfield due to his puberty hit(aka the spider bite's affect) was going to ask out Garfield, but he turned her down.

"Fine! Stay a hot loser forever, you freak!" Kitten screeched, as she ran off away from Garfield.

"Wow, she handles it pretty well." Tara said, laying next to Garfield's locker on the opposite side. "So, did you hear about Professor Mod?"

"No, what happened?" Garfield asked. Professor Neilson Mod was a science teacher in one of Gar's classes and is considered rough around the edges.

"He got fired." Tara answered "They found him drunk during his off days and cursed in front of a bunch of elementary school kids, while in his sweater and underwear."

Garfield laughed as he respond "Man, I feel bad for him already." He said as he and Tara catch up with Dick and Kori.

"Hey Gar, did you hear about Spider-Man stopping stopping a bank heist?" Dick asked his best friend.

"Spider-Man?" Garfield questions, confused.

"Yeah you know the new masked vigilante." Dick clarifies. "He swings around on a web and wears red and blue."

"Oh...Oh! That Spider-Man!" Garfield said, pretending he doesn't know "I hear he's doing some good in New York."

"You bet he does." Tara replied "My brother has been going nuts about him."

"Your brother is a fan as well?" Kori asked her, clearly she has a liking for Spider-Man.

"More like, trying to arrest him." Tara said, rolling her eyes.

"Really?" Garfield asks getting really interested in what Terra is having to say about her brother and Spider-Man. "Why would your brother be wanting to arrest Spider-Man?"

"Well, vigilantism is against the law, and Brion has made it his goal to arrest criminals breaking the law, and Spider-Man is breaking vigilante laws." she points out "But I think Spider-Man isn't really a bad guy, you know. He seems to be New York's own guardian angel."

'At least Tara likes Spider-Man, her brother however...'

"I guess that makes sense." Garfield deflates.

"Sure it does, Gar." Dick agrees as he puts his arm around his best friend's shoulders. "You guys wanna come over to my house and study for that test in Latin we have tomorrow?"

"Sure." Tara replied.

"Yes, Dick, I would love to." Kori replied.

"I'll see if I can make it." Gar replied, knowing that he has duties as Spider-Man. "Oh, and Tara, be on a lookout for Dick's old man."

"Why?" Tara asks in curiosity.

"He's a war veteran, and can be kinda of a hard ass." Garfield explains as Dick playfully hits him on the arm.

"You only say that because he made us do two hundred push ups because we stole his pen." Dick states.

"But let us not forget that time he made us wash all of his cars, just because I spilled ink on his suit." Kori also stated, rubbing her arm.

Suddenly, the school lights blacked out, as the four friends wondered why are the lights out.

"Must've been a black out." Dick said, just before a cloud of smoke appeared on through the vents as everyone hears an annoying cockney laugh through the intercom.

"Hello my duckies. This is Mysterio." Mysterio announces over the schools PA system.

"Duckies?" Tara questions, wondering why does this Mysterio sound familiar.

"Okay, is this a school prank, Professor Mod?" Dick said.

"Oh, Mr. Wilson, you've just spoiled the surprise." Mysterio sneered, "Luckily, I've installed death trap in this school last night!"

"Death traps?" Kori inquires.

"Yes, Ms. Anders, death traps." Mystereo replied.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Garfield comments as he checks to make sure that he is wearing his Spider-Man suit...he was.

"Well Mr. Logan, you little smart aleck." Professor Mod sneered at the last part in whisper, revealing that he never liked Garfield since the young teen solved Mod's hard equation in one class "This school decided to fire me, and I don't like it one bit! So, I've been thinking, why not make this school suffer for wrongly firing me for the lies!"

"You were drunk and cursing at children in your underwear! You got what you deserved!" Tara yells in retaliation.

"Is that what the teachers been telling you, sprouts?" Mysterio said as the school's hallway tv buzzed, revealing a man wearing a globe over his head, wears a purple cape, and hears a green fullbody suit, with yellow gloves and boots. "They didn't told you that they have givin' me the pink slip so they can save up their budget, even though they can afford Dr. Stone as my replacement since he's a well known science professor in many college universities!"

"Yeah, I'm just leaving. You guys coming?" Dick comments as he puts his hand out for, Kori.

"Sure." Tara and Kori reply at the same time as Kori grabs Dicks and while Tara grabs Garfield's.

"Wait. I need to use the restroom first. I'll meet you outside." Garfield responds as he walks to the boy's room.

"You duckies aren't going anywhere, because all the entrance doors are locked and it will be you all gonna suffer what I have suffered from you!" Mysterio declared throughout the school as the students are getting scared. Suddenly, Dick's group saw glowing red eyes far away from the halls.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the hallways.

"This is pointless, I'm calling the police." Rachel said as she's with Malchior in the other side of the halls.

"No reception, Miss Roth, and just for that, you wankers shall face my little pets!" Mysterio declared.

Rachel and Malchior heard girlish screams as Adonis runs away as a group of Velociraptors charge in towards the halls. They split up as the dinosaurs ran towards her, as she begins to stop to catch her breath.

The velociraptors were about to eat her, but Spider-Man came out of nowhere and crashed into the dinosaurs.

"It looks like you just went extinct." Spider-Man taunt as he jumped at the other velociraptor.

"Spider-Man." Rachel said in a surprised monotone.

Spider-Man twisted the head of the velociraptor as it crashes through a bunch of others as they all collided. The carnivorous dinosaurs turned out to be robots.

"Well what do you know, these are robots." Spider-Man thought.

"Did I ever mention to you duckies that I used to work for Hollywood back in the 80s-90s?" Mysterio said "I was considered the best illusionist and monster maker at that time-"

"Ah shut up, chrome dome, just let the students out!" Spider-Man interrupted him.

"Can't do my ducky. I'll let them go after I kill you." Mystereo argues with hate in his voice.

Spider-Man turns to Rachel, as he told her "Look, Miss, I want you to find shelter. Do you know where does this guy's most likely in?" He asked her.

"He's most likely in the Janitor's Closet or the Principals Office." Rachel answers as she feels the nostalgia of the past.

"Why the Janitor's Closet?" Spider-Man asks, but he already knows why.

"A old friend of mine and I pulled a prank with the PA system from the Janitor's Closet at out old school." Rachel replies in her monotone voice that sends chills down Spider-Man's back.

"Why are you no longer friends?" Spider-Man inquires.

"I became popular and he stayed a loser." Rachel answered as if it was the most natural thing in the world. Which let's face it, it kinda is.

"And that's a good reason to throw away a good friendship?" Spider-Man replies in a tight voice.

"It's the only reason that's good enough."

Spider-Man turns away from Rachel, but not until giving her some final thought "Then how do you know if your new friends won't do the same to you?" He said as he shoot his webslingers on the roof of the hall, leaving Rachel in thought.

'Maybe I should apologize to Garfield.' Rachel thought as she watched Spider-Man swing away.

Meanwhile, in Dick's group. Dick, Kori, and Tara couldn't wait for Gar as they are being chased by killer androids.

"Why are there robots in the school!?" Tara shouts.

"Do you love it? These robots are leftovers from the Death Bringer movies." Mysterio replied through the PA system.

"I loved that movie!" Tara screams as they continue to be chased by the robots, but the robots get intercepted by Spider-Man.

"Yay! It is the Man of Spider that has come to rescue us!" Kori shouts is joy and awe as Spider-Man rips one of the robot's arms off.

"Love the movie too, especially the sequel!" Spider-Man comments as he beats the killer robots with another "But I think it's unnessiccary for making a third one."

"AHAHAHAHAHA, so you must be the Spider-Man from around the streets." Mysterio comments.

Spidey motions the group as they head down towards the janitor's closet, as Mysterio continues to monologue "But you will never, ever find me!"

Mysterio continues to monologue, oblivious to the groups walking to his current location in the Janitor Closet.

"You will never find, Mysterio! My location is a mystery that changes every five seconds." Mysterio insanely laughs as the door opens to the closet.

"Hello, Moddy." Spider-Man greets as he punches the 'supervillain' in the globe on his head, factoring the glass and knocking the old school teacher out. "Well it looks like it's no longer a mystery."

/

Later, the police came in and find Mysterio, or old man Professor Mod, all webbed up on the entrance of the school.

"I'll be back, and this time I'll get you, Spider-Man!" He declared, as the police puts him in the car.

Captain Brion Markov saw his little sister, Tara, as he embrace her with a hug, "Are you alright, Tara?" He asked worryingly.

"I'm fine, Brion, now get off of me, my friends are here." Tara replied as she got out of her brother's hug.

Just then, Garfield showed up as he meet up with his friends "Hey guys, what did I miss?"

Dick replied "Well, you wouldn't believe-"

"The Man of Spider have saved us all!" Kori interrupted as she jumped up and down "We have found Professor Mod in the janitor's closet and he punch his timer!"

'Doesnt she mean punch his clock?' Gar thought.

"I think she means punched his clock." Tara clarifies.

"Right on." Garfield replies.

"Spider-Man." Captain Brion said as he placed his chin "I'll deal with him later, right now I gotta get this old geezer to Ravencroft."

/

Later, Garfield walked up to the door of the Wilson penthouse and knocked on the door waiting for his best friend, his girlfriend, or Tara to answer the door. Garfield was surprised but not disappointed when Rose answered the door, but was shocked to see her in a sports bar and running shorts.

"Hey, Garfield." Rose greets as she pulls him into a sweaty hug with her breast against his chest.

"Uh, hi Rose, been a long time." Gar replied nervously 'Damn hormones.'

"My, your feeling sticky today." Rose comments with her pinky finger on her lip "And you've grown more handsome than before."

"Yeah, I sorta spilled some soda on the way." Gar lied, since he can't tell that he's Spider-Man.

"Maybe you should take a shower, Garfield. I'm sure Dick has clothes that will fit you." Rose comments as she motions him into the penthouse. "I could always join you." Rose whispers as Garfield passes her.

"Gar, are you here?" Tara shouted from the other room.

"Well, looks like I'm needed elsewhere, so later, and nice to see you, Rose!" Gar said as he ran towards the room, leaving Rose to stood and pout.

'Maybe sometime later, Gar.' Rose thinks as she closes and locks up the door.

/

Garfield enters the next room and spots his friends.

"Yo, what took ya so long?" Tara asked.

"Well, you know, gotta make a pit stop." Garfield replied. It was the half truth as he had to stop a robbery at a gas station, while he stopped there for the bathroom.

"Come, Garfield, we must help Richard with the Latin studies!" Kori cheered.

"Sure KJ." Garfield replies as he sits down across from Kori and next to Tara.

"Let the studying begin." Tara sarcastically states as she picks up her Latin text book.

After an hour of study session, the four decide to have a lunch break, as Dick had Wintergreen to fix them up some snacks for them at the table, as Rose came in and join them as she sits between Garfield and Tara.

"What are you guys studying?" Rose asks as she sits down and turns to Garfield.

"Latin." Garfield simply answers as he pops some cheese and crackers in his mouth.

"Love Latin." Rose replies as she bats her eye lashes.

As Tara glared at Rose, she hear footsteps coming to the kitchen as she saw a tall, muscular man with white hair, blue eyes, and a white goatee and is wearing a black business suit. Something about the man gave Tara the chills.

"Hello Richard, Rose, and their friends. How are you today?" Slade greets in a baltone voice that sends chills down Everybody's spines.

"Hello sir." Garfield, Kori and Tara greet.

"Hello dad." Rose and Dick greet.

"I hope you all are doing your school work. Oh, and Garfield, I am terribly sorry about your loss." Slade said with a hint of saddened tone.

"It's okay, sir." Gar responded.

"I'll be going to the WilsonCorps for a business meeting. Richard, treat your friends at the home theater, you can watch any movie you like, but don't do what I would do." Slade said with a chuckle.

"Yeah, Dicky, No porn." Garfield jokes which earns a snicker from Slade.

"For that suggestion, Mr. Logan, you can give me fifty push ups." Slade snickers, but dies down when he see's that Garfield does the fifty with ease. 'Impressive.'

Slade then sees Tara and held his hand up to expect a shake "And who, might you be, young lady?"

"T-Tara Markov, sir." She replied, quickly shaking Mr. Wilson's hand.

"How long have been friends with my son?" Slade asks as he eyes Dick.

"Couple of weeks." Tara replies.

"Markov...ah, your the NYPD Captain's...daughter, am I corrected?"

"Sister, actually." Tara corrected.

"Hmm, you forgot to call me sir, but I'll let it slide since your new here." Slade comments as he walks out of the door "I might be late, so Wintergreen is in charge while I'm gone, Dick, Rose." He said as he left the door.

"Scary." Tara comments as she shivers.

"Yeah, you'll get used to it after meeting him for the third time." Gar replied to calm Tara, then Rose sits on his lap.

Garfield turns red and sputters nonsense as Rose eats another cracker without cheese.

"Hmm that's good." Rose comments as she puts her arms around Garfield's neck.

'What is up with this girl, and why is Gar just allowing her to do whatever to him?' Tara thought as she felt jealous.

/

Slade Wilson was at the labs of his WilsonCorps Labs. He is then greeted by a short young man in his 20s, who is bald, wears goggles, and a green hazmat suit with a backpack that has mechanical tentacles sprouting.

"Hello, Dr. Mikron Gizmo, what's the status do you want to give me?" Slade asked.

"Well, I have analyze the splicing DNA for the experiment, and I may have a volunteer." Dr. Gizmo replied, as the screen shows Fang DeLoire, who appears to be shirtless and is only wearing green short pants "Which sample should we use on him?"

"Try the scorpion DNA." Slade answered.

So that's the chapter, as I introduce the villains, like Mad Mod as Mysterio. Wonder who Mammoth and Dr. Light are going to be? Stay tuned to find out.

Also, I have seen "Amazing Spider-Man 2", and I gotta be honest, when I saw this movie, I have flashbacks of "Batman Forever" and "Batman and Robin", too much colorful backgrounds and Electro just looks like Mr. Freeze from the movie.

Next time: Spidey vs Scorpion!
