What happened next was completely unexpected. The Hulk slowly shrunk down into his normal form. When Bruce gathered himself he said,"Well that's all you had to say son...I am sorry I overreacted." Peter looked around the chamber and then turned his gaze back to his father and said,"Well actually...You under-reacted...I guess." Bruce gave him a puzzling look," what do you mean?" Peter smiled a bit,"I thought you,...well the Hulk was going to go on a man hunt to find the guy who punched his kid." Peter chuckled a bit. "But,...for some odd reason It gives me a calm sense of security knowing that you, my dad, would literally hulk-out knowing that harm may have come to me...Wait, is that weird?" Bruce laughed and put his free arm around Peter and his free hand held up his pants,"No Peter that isn't weird at all." They began walking up the stairs. Peter asked,"You're still going up to the school aren't you?" Bruce said with a pan expression,"Yup."
When the bell for school to be out rung, Peter zipped through the hall, hoping he could get to his locker before he encountered Flash. He opened his locker, jamming books and recovering some as well. When he closed his locker someone was standing there waiting for him. His heart sank into his stomach when he realized it and it sank even further when he realized it wasn't Flash. "Heey,...Gwen." Peter scratched his head nervously. She smiled as she held her books protectively against her chest. "Hey Pete,...You know summer's right around the corner...and so is my birthday. So, I am throwing a party. So come would you?" Her speech was nervous as she tried to be flirty and taunting at the same time.
Peter nodded quickly with a smile,"Y-yea! Of course!" She smiled,"Cool,Great!" Peter said,"Cool." She said,"Alright...uh bye." Peter responded,"Cool-I mean yea see ya!" She walked away. Peter was too deep in a day dream to notice the foot that was in the middle of his walkway. He tripped flat on his face. A group of deep and testosterone filled laughs circled Peter. He grumbled,"Flash..." Flash smirked an evil smirk as he went down to level himself with Peter. "Sup, squirt?" Peter said in a warning tone,"Today is really not a good day to pick a fight with me Flash." Flash picked Peter up by his shirt with incredible ease. "And why's that, punk?" Flash said as he held up a fist. Flash felt a small tap on his shoulder.
He barely glanced back at the man and turned his attention back to Peter ,"What Do you want? I've got a wimp to pummel." The man said with anger very clear in his voice,"That so called wimp is my son." When Flash turned his vies to see that the person behind him was actually an adult. Flash dropped Peter quickly."Uh-uh..." Bruce said as he looked up at the boy,"There really is no explanation needed really Flash Thompson." Flash stammered,"H-How-" Bruce said ,"How do I know you? Well, Flash, you probably didn't know this, much less anything else, but I am one of the eight smartest people people in the world. I know everything about you and your friends; Social security number, where you live, and the exact number of exam you've failed in your life time. " Bruce held a small tablet that he showed Flash the information and then put it back in his pocket.
"So Flash, I suppose the heavens were in your favor today because I am not quite feeling myself today but next time this issue rears it's ugly head, I cannot assure that the odds will be in your favor." Flash said with anger in his eyes,"Are you threatening me?" Bruce closed a bit of space between the boy and him as his eyes and skin started to bear a green tint," I am merely warning you that I can't promise that next time will go so smoothly. Gruesome Things are at Play here Flash and I really don't think you want to get caught up in dog fight that you surely can't win." Flash had a deep fear in his eyes. Bruce walked away abruptly when he felt himself losing his grip. Peter hurriedly caught up to his father. Bruce called back,"I hope as much as you do that we never meet again, at-least not under the same circumstances. Have a good day Flash."
Bruce gripped his temples tightly trying to win a fight he was already losing. "Dad, you alright?" Bruce nodded," Just...-Gotta concentrate. He is being, incredibly avid about making a point of Flash." Peter said worriedly,"Let's get you to the car." Bruce said,"Great idea."
The two of them sat in the car until the green subsided from Bruce's skin. "Dad that almost got really messy really quickly..." Bruce started "I know, I was-" Peter smiled proudly,"That was awesome." Bruce made a shocked face and then smiled, "I am glad you enjoyed it."
First day of summer, I went out searching for trouble; suited, masked and ready for what the world may toss at me. The only problem was, I was so preoccupied by Gwen's up coming party. It is goin-"HEEEELP!" a woman's voice screeched eerily. I sprang into action Immediately. My senses were off the charts. An abandoned building was the source of the screams. Peter wiggled the door knobbed gently and opened the door. "Why does this scream, trap?" Peter asked himself as he stepped in. "Maybe because it is." a voice behind him answered. Peter nearly jumped out of his skin. Clint stepped out from the shadows. "Alright bug boy we need answers, now?" Peter swallowed,"We?" All of the Avenger's stepped out into sight. Peter cursed in his mind. The Hulk growled, "He smells familiar..." Peter cursed in his head,"Shit, what if he figures me out. Oh he's never gunna let me outta the house again." "We need answers, son. We've noticed, you've be dodging us. Are you a friend or foe?" Steve said as he pointed at Peter. "What would make you ever think I was the bad guy?!" Peter asked incredulously. Tony said,"Oh well the media and the fact that every police officer in the city is looking for you." Peter rubbed his neck,"Oh yea... Forgot about that..."
Steve said,"We know where your heart is son, but you're not ready for that yet." Peter asked with a snarky tone,"And what would constitute Me being prepared to fight crime?" Natasha spoke up,"Training...with the Avengers." Peter almost exploded out of his suit,"Are you serious?! With you guys?!"
"I am taking it that you accept out offer." Steve said. "Hell yea I do!" Peter almost covered his mouth knowing that his parents didn't like it when he cursed. "Alright at the tower tomorrow at 3 then?" Tony said holding out a hand. Peter shook it quickly. "Thanks ! This is the greatest opportunity of a life time."
Hours Later
"This is the biggest mistake of my life." Peter said into his bed sheets. "I fucked up...How am I supposed to explain being gone everytime spiderman is gone?..." Peter whimpered,"I am sooo screwed.
