Chapter 2: Taking Down The Kingpin Part 1

Scarlet Spider and Spider-Man are listening to a couple of thugs talking about a guy called the Kingpin... when suddenly Spider-Man jumps down and begins attacking the thugs.

"Hi! We're here to sign up for the wet t-shirt contest!"

Cody jumps down and begins to fight the thugs as well.

He begins to dodge the gunfire, and as he's dodging, his spider sense begins to tingle. He turns and faces a large guy and tries to punch him in the gut but he hurts his hand while doing so.

'Damn. I forgot he had that thing.'

A guy with a whip then puts it around Peter's neck and begins to strangle him.

Cody then backs away from the guy he's fighting and yells, "Hey! You leave him alone!"

Then, he got his talons out and cut away at the rope.

Spider-Man gets loose and they both beat the crap out of the three guys and web them up.

"Okay. We could care less about you three freaky weirdos. You work for the Kingpin. We know all about you and we want you to take us to him." says Peter.

"The Kingpin... why didn't you say so?" A guy dressed in a blue business suit answered.

"And you are?"

"Doesn't matter."

"What do you want with the Kingpin?"

"That's between us and him."

"How old are the two of you?"

"Who are you?"

"If you came here looking for answers kid, you're not gonna get any here. This isn't a clubhouse."

"But I will tell you that he is throwing a gala fundraiser in his office Friday night."

"Why did you tell us that?"

"Just because we have to work for him, doesn't mean that we have to have his best interests in heart."

"EVERYONE FREEZE!"

"FBI! HANDS IN THE — Oh my god!"

"It's them! It's Spider-Man and the Scarlet Spider!

Cody realizes that it's their cue to leave.

"Both of you! Hands over your heads!"

"Th-this isn't what it looks like!" Peter says as he tries to reason with the FBI.

"Hands in the air! I mean it."

"Oh my. Look at the time! We're gonna miss the bus!"

Peter and Cody jump over the cops just as they fire the gun right at them. Then, they web swung off into the night.

Peter and Cody both walk into a newspaper store and look at a newspaper titled: SPIDER-TWINS: MOB MENACES.

Cody realizes that something is about to happen right about now.

"Good morning young man, did you happen to bring your library card today?" says a man from the counter.

"My library card? No. Why?" answered Peter.

"Because this ain't a library! You bought that!"

Cody looks and notices Peter hanging his head down and frowning.

"Don't worry. Pete. You can borrow my money." Cody said.

As Cody and Peter are eating their lunch, they see Kong talking to his friends about Scarlet Spider and Spider-Man.

"So, like both of them busted the mafia last night. It was so — I saw it on the news. They both went in there and started taking names..."

He was about to finish before Liz suddenly interrupted him. "ENOUGH WITH SPIDER-MAN AND SCARLET SPIDER ALREADY! ENOUGH!"

"Hey Parkers! Do you guys mind? Do you want me to come over there?" Flash says in anger.

"Hey Flash! Want another broken hand?" Cody says to him.

Flash growls and mumbles something under his breath.

"Hey Peter. Hey Cody. What's going on with you guys?" says MJ.

"We're just eating." answered Peter.

"Oh my god. Is she a drama queen or what?"

"Yeah... I guess..."

"So are you two doing okay?"

"Yeah. We're doing just fine."

"You know we haven't really talked since that night with... you know.. when your uncle..."

"Yeah, no we're doing okay."

"Can I have a sip?"

"Okay, what about your brother I thought he had something to drink?"

"Nah, I drank it all. Sorry Pete." answers Cody.

"Here, take it."

Peter then begins to drink the soda and that's when he notices MJ staring at him while he does it.

Cody knows that this is the moment where she's gonna ask Peter on a date then he's gonna say Saturday instead of Friday.

That's when a lightbulb flashes in Cody's head: What if he went to the Kingpin's thing by himself instead of Peter going with him?

He'll probably get his mask thrown off and killed in the process but it's okay to change just one thing. Right?

"I was gonna ask you if you wanted to go to the movies with me on Friday" says MJ.

"Yeah, of course he'll go with you, right Peter?"

"Uh, sure okay."

"So Friday then, only if I get to pick the movie."

"I knew that was coming."

"What about you Cody?"

"Oh uh, I have to work at the Bugle it's okay though I can cover for Peter."

"Oh, alright. Well see you later then."

As Mary Jane leaves the table, Peter grabs Cody and says, "Dude, what the hell was that? Didn't you forget we need to go to the gala tonight to get information from the Kingpin?"

"It's fine Pete. You can go to the movies with Mary Jane and I'll go to the fundraiser."

"Well okay."

Cody puts on his Scarlet Spider costume and sneaks out the window then web swings to the building. He then uses his talons to climb up the walls and then he gets into the building from there. "Damn, this building pretty tall!" Cody says in his head.

As he walks into the room, he looks up and notices the camera.

'Something's about to happen right about now..'

Then his spider sense starts to go off and that's when he realizes that Wilson Fisk is standing right behind him.

"Oh, crap..."
