Chapter 40 – Vengeance

(Earth-1610)

Miles's Room, Brooklyn (Three Weeks Later)

Is it over?

Miles's sat on his bed, pinching his newly shaved head. He limps to his mirror on the door. He looks to his wall of his old suit, sewed back together by May, after he foolishly tears it apart. He closes his eyes and sits on his writing desk.

Pain. Greif. Scars of the past. It's a part of what makes us "Heroes" like you. I thought my life was meaningless, I had nothing to live for. But I do. You do. Never throw it away. Enjoy every minute of it. Find what makes you happy. For me it was being Spider-Man. But not this Spider-Man.

Miles finds Rio in the kitchen smiling, cleaning the dishes. Miles goes under the bed and finds his new Spider-Man suit. He puts it on. The suit glows red and his lenses glow aqua. He checks his vitals and his web shooters. He locks the door to his room, grabs his old suit from the portrait, and jumps out the window.

An Alleyway, Brooklyn (Nighttime)

"Why can't we get a taxi?"

"Don't worry the cars across the street from here."

Two couples turned a corner, walking into an alley. The Alley was gloomy, littered with damped papers tumbling on the asphalt. the couple walking in puddles, soaking they're shoes. The couples stop and looked petrified. Two more boots clicked on the asphalt, out of the shadows. There were two thugs in dirty clothes, and had mud smothering their faces.

"What you'd be doing out here?" said The Thug.

The boyfriend gets in front of his girlfriend. "it's none of your business."

"I understand that. But you're trespassing and when you trespass." The thug pulls out a gun. "We. Kindly let them in."

The Boyfriend stood her ground.

"She's mine." Said the thug.

The main thugs buddy, and shoots the boyfriend gut and his girlfriend screams in horror, as she gets snatched.

"Help! Help!" said the girlfriend, screaming, hitting the thug, as her mouth was covered, then.

A web snatches it the gun from his buddy's hands! The lights dim.

"What the hell?!" said the thug.

Alex rolled on his back while holding his bleeding gut. He felt a presence as if it was a shadow spirt roaming the area. He saw his girlfriend still being held by the other one, as-

"AHHHHH" he was pulled away into the dark. Alex heard bones cracking and punches. It stops as the thug's buddy walks to where the young thug was beaten, bruised, and bleeding. The Thug frowns.

"Show yourself fucker!" The thug turns to find him. He falls on his back.

He looks taller than the last times he's seen him. But his appearance made his heart stop. The glowing aqua lenses, the cowl, the vigorous spider-enigma glowing red, and the black cape wrapping his suit.

"No. it's not you." said the thug.

The Spider-Man picks the thug up with both hands and punches his face.

"What are doing down here punk?" Spider-Man's voice didn't feel recognizable to the thug, it was unsettling. Spider-Man Punches him again.

"Okay! We were just scouring okay!"

"Scouring ladies, huh?"

Spider-Man punches the thugs square in the jaw and drops him. He drags him next to the thug. He looks to the couple still holding each other. Spider-Man drops the thug and looks at them.

Spider-Man saw the shot in his gut, as his girlfriend holds him. He silks the gut.

"That'll hold till you get to the police, tell them what happened, and." He picks up his old suit. "Give 'em this."

He lays on the wet asphalt, he then turns and.

"What the hell are you?" Alex said.

Spider-Man turns back and raises a lenses, "Vengeance, Punisher. Just a New kid coming to play."

Spider-Man silks the two thugs and hangs them and jumps to the ceiling. He hangs the thugs and swings away.

Alex's Girlfriend took the the picture of Spidey and the old suit left for them and turns to Alex, "He reminds me of Spidey. But isn't he suppose to be friendly"

"I guess, But those anti-Spider-Man got what they want. No more Spider-Man."

Time Square (Nighttime)

"Folks! I've never been so proud of my city. There is no. More. Spider-Man! I have proof I have his suit! However, However. A Couple has been recently attack but drunk hobos, till A Prowler, beat the S# t outta them! They never got a good look. But I can assure that whoever this vigilante is, it maybe a sign, that Spider-Man has finally been put to rest, and the city can move one, but his legacy will never die."

Spider-Man sits at the PDNY crouching. He watches JJ ranting about the 'New Spider-Man' and the civilians of New York from below. He hears the police sirens wailing in the background. Spider-Man looks at the building and jumps highs.

He runs up the wall. He jumps to the roof and runs to the edge. He jumps and sees a car chase of a large truck. Spider-Man swings away towards the scene.

I now know. Spider-Man isn't just symbol of hope and inspiration for the good of New York. Spider-Man is also, a symbol of justice, against those who prevail the broken laws. They may not accept that, but it's true to me. This is my gift; this is my purpose. This is my destiny. You know Why? I'm Spider-Man.

The End?
