Chapter 21
Peter P.O.V
When the doc said that my chances were so small that I had to be put on life support, I actually felt- let me admit this- (but not in front of Sam,) scared. Yes, the great spider man can actually feel that emotion.
I know that every one dies, but, (no offence May) I always imagined dying after Aunt May, and getting some of her stuff, mean I know, but everyone feels like that don't they? It's just dying. Death. Oh help me please! I'm spider man- with the strength of a whole spider! That sort of power shouldn't be put down should it? But who am I now? Everyone knows Peter Parker is Spiderman, and vice versa. I have no secret identity, my friends and family will be in harm's way…
But now I have my reputation at stake. May and my team are looking at me with a mix of pity and sadness. But when faced with trouble, there is only one thing to do:
"Hey, you never know guys, you may get some of my stuff!"
Mistake. May burst into tears again and my team just walked out.
Great. I was dying and stuck with a sobbing aunt…
Ava P.O.V
What Peter said was the last straw. If I stayed, I would have burst into tears in front of everyone. But what I didn't expect, was that my team would follow me out. Now that probably have made Peter feel alone, and that was not in my initial plan.
"Ava, you okay?" Luke asked me as I sat down on a chair.
"I, I, I don't know," I felt a few stray tears trickle down my face, "Why is it Peter that's dying? Why? None of us deserve this, but at least we don't have much of a social life past S.H.I.E.L.D but Peter has a secret identity, friends and family."
I looked up at the others, my sight slightly blurred by tears, and I could see that they all felt the same, even Danny's calm aura seemed shattered.
"When facing death, one must face fear first. To conquer fear, one must have support from those stronger willed then themselves. Death cannot be faced alone."
We stared at him. That was the longest thing we had ever heard Danny say.
He shrugged at us and sat, crossed legged on the floor, meditating.
"We better go back," I muttered and the others nodded.
Then May marched out.
Was everyone turning into sheep?
"We were just coming back," I quickly said to May, but she raised a hand,
"Peter wants a word with you."
It must have pained her to say that her nephew wanted to speak to someone other than her.
We turned back the way we'd come, Danny stood up, and we all made our way to our friend.
General P.O.V
When his team had left, Peter had started to speak to May,
"May, I'm sorry about this, all of this. Not just me dying, but the whole super hero thing. I did it to avenge uncle Ben, but it may have gone too far. It's just-"
"Don't say anything else Pete. I'm proud of you, of all the people you have saved." May said, a smile shining through her tears, "You've put good into this city, you've saved so many, I am so proud, and so would you're Uncle Ben."
Peter smiled at his aunt at then asked her a favour,
"May, could you possibly get my team, I need to speak to them."
General P.O.V
The four teenaged super heroes marched back into the infirmary and towards Peter. The fact that their leader was dying made all of them feel scarred and fearful for their own safety. They had all believed that super heroes couldn't die- they were surely immortal- but apparently not. One of the greatest superheroes was on his deathbed, only a short time remaining for them.
The heroes knew what was coming. Peter was surely going to talk them out of revenge, but that was already decided, not even Peter could talk them out of it. Goblin needed to pay for what he had done, and if they had to go against their leaders orders, so be it.
sorry, pretty rubbish chapt, but it needed to come in somewhere.
soz also for the long time to update- my STUPID, STUPID, STUPID internet stopped working...
next one MAY get emotional- if anyone has any ideas for what they think Peter's going to say- please tell me!
Peter: I'll tell you what I'm going to say...
All of team: TELL US!
Peter: I'M DYING! So, to mark this hour- I will say a stupid, pun. do you want to hear it?
All of team: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
LL99 out! Mad mind ON!
