CHAPTER 7

Darrel sat with his back against the cell, chewing on some gum a guard had given him after dinner. The library robbery had been planned for months, they had thought of every outcome. The police would've arrived five minutes after they had left, it was the perfect crime. They had cut the video camera wires; they had waited until the least popular time hour so they wouldn't have to deal with too many civilians. Everything had gone according to plan, except that damn Spider-boy-thing.

The guard dragged another inmate and pushed him in the cell with Darrel.

"About time you got here, Jared," Darrel said lazily. Jared just grunted at him, leaning on the bars.

A series of taps came the cement wall behind him. Darrel got up reluctantly and leaned against the bars next to Jared, looking at the guard at the end of the hall. The guard nodded to him as a whole in the wall fell inward.

By the end of the night, Jared and Darrel sat on a couch in a cheap motel room with a beer in their hands watching the news.

"What's the plan, Darrel?"

"We need to get rid of that spider on our backs," Darrel turned up the volume when a video of the Spider-Man played.

"While many call him a hero, Police Chief Roger Manner calls him a menace." The new anchor announced.

"He is getting in the way of my hard working police officers who know the protocol, if I see this Spider-Man I'm going to lock him up for a long long time."

Darrel turned off the television and stood up, "Logan died because of this spider."

Jared felt the anger swell within him, "his wife had to learn about his death from the bloody news. Let's teach this Spider-Man how we mourn the death of one of our brothers."

"I agree." Darrel popped off a cushion on the couch and pulled out a duffle bag. "But we need to get pick up someone."

"Where are we going?" Jared asked.

"Austin, Texas."

Y'all ideas are flooding into my head like a canal! I have a layout of chapters up to 14 so this is going to be a longer fic. I plan to upload every day, but my work schedule changes daily, so don't hold me to it. I'll try to get ahead with writing today so that I can upload daily. I hope y'all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it. 3
