Fire inu: Yeah I know, I like it, hopefully they'll R&R my past works too.
Evosmylife: Yeah they don't go into great detail about that so I filled it in, but don't expect any yelling, it's just not her thing.
RealityDreamer: Yeah I know that's one of the reasons he's my favorite Marvel character. And I'm trying to get a new chapter but I got a little case of writers block on it, I will try and get one out hopefully sometime this week.
evilraven: Hey thanks, man there are a lot of people that want to see Peter and Rogue get together.
Red Witch: Glad you like it, and I hope I don't disappoint you.
The Uncanny R-Man: Well not Venom at least not until I introduce the symbiote, and you might see a little thing later with other characters.
Oceanbang: Trust me I got a lot planned for him while in the X-Men.
SPIDER-X
CHAPTER 5: THE DECISION
While in his room Peter talked a bit to Rogue and Scott, basically what it was like at the Institute. They told him about some of the others, and the training, and the fights they had a tendency to get into with the Brotherhood. When they got to that, they went into detail about Magneto and Mystique.
"Well, I guess there had to be a down side to all of this somewhere." Peter said. Rogue nodded in agreement.
Scott found a picture of a young boy and two adults on a shelf. "Hey Peter who are these people?"
Peter looked over to see what Scott was looking at, and his sudden good mood change slightly to a more sad look. "That's me, and those were my parents."
"Were?" Rogue asked not liking the sound of that.
Peter nodded. "Yeah...they died in a plane crash when I was a kid...I barely even remember them now, and ever since then my aunt and uncle raised me. That's my uncle there in the picture next to it...he died a few months ago."
Rogue and Scott couldn't help but feel sad for his misfortune in life. "Yeah I know the feeling...I lost my own parents in a plane crash in Alaska." Scott said to him. Peter looked at him and they shared a look that only two people who had experienced a great tragedy could have.
Rogue felt a little uncomfortable then and looked around some more. She opened the door to find a small bathroom, but in the corner was a small table with some kind of machine on it. "Hey Peter what's this?"
Peter went to the door and smiled proudly. "That's something I used to develop my film."
"Ya take pictures?" Rogue asked intrigued.
Peter nodded. "Yeah, you see there's no window in hear and with these things I put on the sides of the door, and when I replace the light up there with a red bulb this sort of becomes my own personal dark room."
Rogue looked around it again. "Nice. Ya got anything ya could show us?"
Peter got a huge smile on his face. "You bet." He went back into his room and dug through under his bed and pulled out a shoe box. He opened it and they saw it was full of photos. "I've been meaning to put them into a book but well, I haven't had the time lately."
They could understand seeing they knew about his other work at night. They looked through the pile, and they were impressed by what they saw. Then Rogue looked at a picture of Times Square only it was from a very dynamic angle. "How did ya get this shot?"
Peter looked at it. "Oh that, I took that hanging from my feet upside down."
Both Rogue and Scott looked at the image. "Ya know, if anyone else told meh that ah would think that was weird, but knowin' what ya can do ah'm not that surprised."
While downstairs May had been talking to Xavier in great length about the school and what they did. She didn't like the sound of this Danger Room were they trained, but given what Peter normally did it was actually sounded less dangerous, but only slightly.
"Well then I know Peter wants me to come and I have to agree he made excellent points, it's just that I don't want to be a freeloader there." May confessed to them.
Ororo smiled. "Not at all, with all the children believe me we could use all the help we could get there, besides me and the Professor, there's only Hank and Logan. And four people is hard enough looking after fourteen kids."
"Oh my, you have that many?" She said surprised.
Ororo nodded her head. "Yes and believe me you would be welcomed for anything you could do to help."
"Well then it's nice to know that I can be of some use." She said smiling then she turned to Xavier and her expression suddenly changed to a very serious expression. "Now I know you talked to Peter about him being Spider- Man, I know I can't talk him out of it, and I doubt you could either."
Xavier nodded gravely. "Yes, and I know the reasons for his decisions, and I find myself not blaming him for his chosen path in life."
She nodded her own understanding. "Yes I know. But if he is going to still do this I want you're help in not only making sure he's safe, but I also don't want him to be out all night all the time. If he's going to be living with you I want you to make him understand that you are not going to stop him, but he must not run himself ragged all night either."
"I quite agree with you on that point." Xavier said. "And with you're help we might be able to convince him of that too."
"Well then I'm glad we agree on that." She said pleasantly. She knew she may not be able to stop him, but she could try and make sure that he didn't drop dead from exhaustion either.
Back in Peter's room they were talking some more. "Hey Peter I got to ask, are you into mechanics or something?" Peter gave him a confused look. "I mean this stuff." Scott said pointing to a small tool kit.
"Oh that, I use that for my web shooters." He said.
"You're what?" Scott asked.
Then Peter pulled open a drawer and pulled out a box hidden under some clothes. He opened it and they saw his Spider-Man costume in it, a belt and two gauntlet type things. He put one on, and using his two middle fingers pressed a small button on the palm. They were amazed to see the webbing shoot out.
"You mean you don't make that?" Scott said. Peter shook his head.
"Where did ya get those?" Rogue asked looking at the other one.
"I made them myself." Peter could see that they were impressed. "Here let me show you how they work." Then he placed the one Rogue had on her hand. "Now press down gently and increase the pressure slowly, they will only fire at a certain type of pressure, that why they don't go off all the time."
Rogue did as he said and then suddenly a stream of webbing shot out. "Whoa. That's so cool."
(You three can come down now.) They all suddenly heard the Professor say in their heads. Peter was completely shocked then looked at them.
"Do you get used to that or is it always creepy when he talks in you're head like that?" Peter asked.
"Ya do get used ta it, but it's still creepy." Rogue told him. The three of them gathered downstairs in the living room Peter was nervous since he was hoping everything would turn out all right.
"Well Peter, Mr. Xavier and I have discussed it." His aunt said and paused for a moment. He wasn't sure whether she was preparing herself or just making him more nervous on purpose. "And I think it will be a good idea for you to live there, and if you won't go without me, then...I guess I will go with you as well."
Peter was beaming at that moment, even Scott and Rogue smiled since they were begging to like Peter in the short time they had met him. They spent the rest of the time going over the details. Peter and May would be moved in since Peter had to transfer schools the Professor would arrange it and to contact a moving company to help with anything May wished to bring.
It would take a couple of days, and Peter was glad, since it would give him the time to say goodbye to the few friends he did have around here. Then he would start his new life, and to tell the truth, he was looking forward to starting again with a clean slate.

Peter says goodbye to friends and moves into the Institute next time.
