Author's Note: Hey, sorry I couldn't write one in my previous update, but I was in the library, and I didn't have enough time. Umm...in case, u guys haven't noticed (I'm pretty sure most of you figured it out by now, but I'll still write it here.) whenever a sentence is surrounded by this mark: (eg. 'Here I am.'), it means that the sentence is what the person is thinking. He/she is not saying it out loud. And whenever it's surrounded by this: ("Here I am."), it means that the sentence refers to what someone is saying. I tried to find more about Ursula, but I couldn't find a lot of info. For all of you Spidey comic book fans out there, can you please e-mail if anyone knows more about her? Thanks. Again, thanks for the great reviews. Now 'drumrolls' let's continue!
Gwen Stacy tapped her pencil against her textbook as she stared at the complex physics problem in front of her. She angrily flung her pencil on her notebook and stamped out of her room. 'God, I wish Dad was here. He would have helped me, or we would be talking by now,' thought Gwen. She took her notepad out of the pocket of her jeans and flipped through it as she skimmed through several pages of notes. 'OK...so far, from that 'interview,' I know that Peter actually has a personal relationship with Spiderman. Not only that, but whatever Peter does, Spiderman seems as if he's tied into it somehow.'
Suddenly, she heard a loud bang in the apartment next to hers. 'Wait,' thought Gwen, 'that's Peter's apartment! Oh my god! Peter might be here!' She quickly walked out of her apartment. She grabbed Peter's door- which was unlocked-and banged it. Instead of seeing her geeky neighbor, she heard the wind flowing through an open window.
'Odd,' thought Gwen as she cautiously walked inside. Peter's apartment wasn't repaired yet, and some of the floorboards would have collapsed with just one step. As she closed the window, she heard a loud thud. She quickly turned around and saw a spider like creature dressed in Spiderman's costume. As the monster advanced on her, Gwen slowly backed away. In her horror, she had forgotten that the window was behind her. The old window's hinges easily gave way, and Gwen screamed as she fell right through. In two seconds, she realized that instead of hitting the cold concrete on the ground below, she felt the wind roaring past her ears and hairy limbs holding her securely. They landed on a roof, and when Gwen stood up, she turned to see the monster that had swung her to safety. Suddenly, everything made sense: Spiderman, Peter, and the monster in front of her: 'Oh my god! Peter's Spiderman! Something must have happened to him!' The monster's demeanor quickly changed as it realized the hunger gnawing at its stomach. Before its limb reached Gwen, though, Gwen looked up and whispered with tear-filled eyes, "What happened to you, Peter?"
Something in the back of the monster's brain stopped him in his tracks. With a trembling hand, Gwen placed her hand on the monster's chest and looked into those red eyes. Tears streamed down her face. The monster backed away-almost as if it was frightened by her touch.
"Wait, Peter!" said Gwen. But it was too late-it dropped in mid-air, shot a web strand, and swung away.
