There will be no Spider-Man in this story, wait for the next one. I need to focus on developing an entire Rogue's Gallery and such and I don't feel like doing things that would steel the spot light off the central characters.
But man, crap, I really want to add Liz and Felicia to the pairing seeing the developments I did, but they might be off better as their own stories.

''Something bothering you Hardy-san?'' Toshi asked as he came across the form of Felicia Hardy, huddled in an aisle behind a bookcase. Her beautiful blue eyes stained with tears and black mascara running down her face.
"I caught my jerk of a so called boyfriend making out with another girl," she sniffled, wiping her eyes.
"Ah, come on, it isn't that bad," Toshi assured her, patting her back and offering some tissue he kept on him to take care of his many phobias. "You're Felicia Hardy! Pretty, witty, blonde, and rich. Snap your fingers and the boys will come running up. That jack-ass will regret losing you.'' he said as Felicia's sniffling lessened. ''In fact, you should definitely go out with me, you know to make him jealous. And we should definitely make out, you know to rub it in his face.'' he added as Felicia broke out into a fit of giggles and wiped her eyes.
''You are incorrigible Toshi. If you were any other guy I assumed you were trying to take advantage of the situation.'' she stated as Toshi pouted.
''Never,'' he cried dramatically. ''That would mean cheating on my one true love. Unless she asked me to make out with another girl, and only girls. For even if my love is boundless even I have standards and limits. Oh and nothing with coconuts. I hate coconuts.'' he said as Felicia shook her head, calling out to the teen before he could go on another tangent. It was a shame that Toshi was so hopelessly in love with Mary Jane, who was hopeless infatuated with Shinobi. He was a nice guy, if not for being a bit weird. ''So no more crying you hear? Especially on a Friday.''
"Oh yeah? And why's that?" she asked, her smiling brightening.
''You and I are going to go,'' he paused, ''SHOPPING!'' he exclaimed, doing his best impression of a rich and bubbly young female who had money yet little brains and was simply born into a rich family.
Felicia was pretty sure if it wasn't for the fact that Toshi was indeed a Mary-Jane sexual with a dash of Chivalrous Pervert she would think he might be swinging for the other team per his slight feminine matters and behaviors at times. ''Toshi, you really like Mary-Jane Watson don't you?'' she asked as he craned his head to the side and rose up his eyebrow.
''Hhm? I suppose I may have been too subtle,'' he mused to himself. ''I'm sorry what was the question?''
''Oh, nothing...''she said, biting her bottom lip and wondering should she do.
''Listen, if you're not doing anything tomorrow I got tickets to this concert. It was suppose to be a birthday present for...that jerk, but since you like Linkin Park I thought...''
''LINKIN PARK!'' Toshi exclaimed as his eyes lit up. ''YAY!'' he shouted as his hands rose above his hands.
''I'll take that for a yes!'' she said as she turned away, her face becoming a light shade of red. 'I just don't want the waste perfectly good money that's all. It's not like these tickets are cheap and Toshi is a good guy.'
''LINKIN PARK! IN THE END! LEAVE OUT ALL THE REST! LIVE!'' Did Felicia just ask me out on a date? NAaaaaah! I'm being a dumbass! She obviously wants me to be her bodyguard against any pervert who my grope her ass or such. Hhm...but the question is. Can I fight myself while enjoying Linkin Park. The question is...MEY-BE! Nah, it's a definitely. Don't be a total ass-hat guy. Her boyfriend just hurt her, you need to do everything you can to solidify friend zone status! ''Well Felicia, my friend, who I am joining your request only as a friend and accompanying in a way only a friend can I accept your gracious offer.'' he said as his arms went up, then down, then up, and finally down again. He wanted to hug her in the excitement but that would be too friendly and such he didn't know what to do. ''I don't know what to do?'' he mentally cried inside.
Meanwhile with Mary-Jane who was getting used to post Spiderbit status. With her Aunt Anna being something of a worrywart she was not allowed to go to school today, not that the red-head was complaining first. This would allow her more time to work on her Super Sexy Secret Plan to Romance Shinobi and Become His Secret Keeper and Love Interest.
"MJ have you lost your mind?" Liz'a voice blared over the phone.
"Good morning to you too Liz." she said. "What are you referring to?"
''Micheal told us how you asked him to use his Computer know how to track down all of Shinobi's movements and than you asked him which area super criminals would most likely attack for gain? I may not be a scholar but I have common sense and its telling me you're either suddenly gone brain dead or you're becoming obsessed and as your friend I can't stand by and let you do something like this.'
''Look, I know what I'm doing Liz. All I'm asking is that you support me in my decision,'' Mary-Jane said as she spun in the computer chair she was in by her desk and faced the TV. Picking up the remote she turned on the TV and began flipping through the channels when something caught her eye. A report on the kind of incident that Shinobi would get involved with. The perfect opportunity to talk with him. ''I have to go.'' she said, hanging up on her protesting friend as she ran to her closet and began going through her wardrobe for something cute, yet sexy.
As Mary Jane was on her way to where the blond enigma the Shinobi was she began to think back the moment when she started to form her plan to meet the enigmatic fighter.
''You're out of ya' league ninja boy! You should have never gotten in my way!'' the humanoid criminal of fire known as scorcher said, as he continued to fire continuous stream of flames at the over turned blue pinto that Naruto was behind. The heat of the car escalated as the vehicle began to melt instead of blowing up like Naruto feared for a few moments.
''At this point I'm going to have to skip the witty comments and just take you down. I am not missing the premier of Scream 5 over you.'' Shinobi said as he jumped back and kicked the remains of the melted car into the armored suit pyromaniac.
''And that was the scene earlier today as the unusual shinobi Naruto Uzumaki defeated the Scorcher, better known as Steven Hudak, a chemist fired from his company for embezzlement. Steven Hudak was carving a path of destruction to...'' the newscaster's voice was cut off by Toshi.
''Hey! We should be focusing on the Algebra you know.''
''The what now?'' the love struck teen said as she looked up.
''The Algebra... Toshi reminded her as Mary Jane snorted and crossed her legs.
''But that's so boring. About as exciting as watching moss grow.''
Toshi hung his head. ''Boring?'' he whimpered.
Mary Jane giggled, ''...lighten up. I'm just teasing you.'' she playfully remarked and ruffled his hair.
''And that's all for tonight's coverage on the shinobi!'' and with that Mary Jane cut off the TV and took down more notes. What soon followed was her charting the sighting and noticed that Shinobi seemed to appear in Queen's often.
And that soon led to that Saturday. Dressed in a Pink T-Shirt, jeans, and open grey jacket the red-head was able to catch the tail end of a fight between Shinobi and a criminal by the name of Havok. Cupping her hands together Mary Jane gave one big cry of, ''SHINOBI!'' only for him to take off. ''Darn,'' she stated as he disappear in a swirl of wind. ''Maybe he didn't hear me.'' she concluded as she decided to try again. ''Shinobi over here!"' she screamed to him as he tackled some psycho throwing electric blasts off a roof. ''Hey Shinobi do you remember me!'' she cried out from a taxi cab, as the latest encounter resulted in him keeping a bus from falling over a bridge into the water. Though as soon as he appeared the blond disappeared again.
''Hurry...Hurry...Hurry.'' Mary Jane mentally chanted as she climbed up the fire escape.
''...Ma-Ki! Naruto Rendan!'' with an explosive finish Naruto axe kicked yet another costumed weirdo trying to gain fame by killing him. What was with nut jobs and trying to earn a reputation by killing him.
''Shinobi!'' the cry caused the blond to turn around, a startled look on his face.
''Mary-Jane what are you...'' his eyes widened and he swore. He had inadvertently slipped, his tone coming off more familiar than he intended.
''You do remember me.'' she responded with glee before a look of unamusement formed on her face.''So why have you been ignoring me?'' she demanded with an accusatory glance. ''I've been chasing you all over the city for days!'' she stretched out for the words day. She was a bit too irritated to let her crush dismiss how annoyed she was. ''You had to have heard me calling out for you.''
Naruto bit his lip, softly exhaling from his nose before deciding to finally humor the girl. ''So what do you need? Need me to beat up someone for you?'' he asked playfully. ''I don't do that sort of thing.'' Not anymore. he mentally added. ''I'm suppose to be heroic.'' as he finished he noticed Mary Jane's demeanor suddenly changed. Her face began to flush red and her hands came together, her fingers interlacing together as she fidgeted.
''I want...'' she stammered. ''well...you.'' she finally admitted.
'Don't construe it as perverted or you're going to Hell!Don't construe it as perverted or you're going to Hell! Don't construe it as perverted or you're...oh god damnit I'm going to Hell.'
After noticing her hesitant and fearful look he finally answered. ''Huh?'' smooth move Naruto.
She turned away for a brief moment to gather her courage. ''What would you say to going out sometime?'' There...she did it!
''I...I can't...'' and he almost regretted it as she suddenly exploded.
''Why not? Why can't you go out with me?'' she asked, she looked like she was about to cry. Isn't this how is goes in the comics. The hero is suppose to fall in love with the red head he always save?
Naruto could have simply dismissed her. He could have brushed her off, but than he realized what he would have been doing was unfair to the girl. ''I would be worried about you.'' he said as he placed his hands on her shoulder. ''You're a beautiful young girl, but you're also human and therefore fragile.'' he said as he paused to make sure he chose his next words carefully. ''I've studied heroes and villains, super-powered or otherwise and I know that civilians are in danger often, especially those connected to heroes. Also, I value a woman whose strong.'' images of Sakura, Ino, Hinata, Ten-Ten, Temari, Tsunade, and Konan came to mind for various reasons. ''I need someone who can stand and fight by my side as an equal. I'm not saying you should go out there and try to get bit my a radioactive fly to develop super powers or something, but I need someone who can compliment me and you have your whole life ahead of you. Something that shouldn't be revolved around romance and instead making use of that head of yours.'' Naruto removed his hands and went over to the edge. ''Please don't seek me out anymore Mary-Jane because you could get yourself hurt. Take care of yourself.'' Naruto stated as he disappeared over the edge.
'I need someone who can stand and fight by my side as an equal.' '... making use of that head of yours.' his words echoed in Mary Jane's head. She gloomly thought as she went and sat on the edge of the roof. 'Ohmygosh! I'm so embarrassed! Toshi and Liz were right! What was I thinking.' As Mary Jane went to move she slipped over the side and let out a scream. By extent she reached out and caught the end of one of the ladders, using the momentum she manage to throw herself forward and flipped over and collided into a wall.
'That's it I'm dead! I'm totally dead! That's why it didn't hurt...right?' she thought as she opened her eyes and let a gasp as she was looking down at the ground? 'What the?' she thought as she looked up and down and noticed she was stuck against the wall. Pulling her hands away she realized her arms were sticking to the wall. As freaked out as she was Mary Jane couldn't help but be a bit giddy at the prospect she had super powers. Not asking why or how and maybe even why she didn't happen to discover them before but the fact that working to become Shinobi's equal wouldn't be as difficult as she thought.
