How it Works
The neon lights of New York City glowed with beauty and rich color as Spiderman swung through the city on his famous webs, heading toward the ever common scene of the crime. The red and blue hero landed on a six story building, overlooking a line of different stores. One in particular, a jewelry store, had a broken window and a crying man at its front.
Spiderman leaped off the roof and landed upside down on the wall and faced the crying man, who appeared to be the owner.
"Okay what's the problem?" Spiderman asked with his witty attitude.
"Three men…took my diamonds…that way." The man answered back between sobs.
"Gotcha!" Spiderman thanked, quickly leaped off the wall and headed toward the direction that the man pointed to. Spiderman swung on web after web, scanning the streets below him for any sign of the robbers. In an instant, Spiderman laid his gaze upon the culprits, who were driving like they were drunk, crashing into several cars.
"There are never the police when you need them," Spiderman whispered sarcastically. Spiderman shot out a web and swung in a graceful arc toward the car. When he approached, his spider sense buzzed and time slowed down. With his enhanced senses, he noticed that a spray of bullets fired from one of the windows, launching straight toward Spiderman. The hero quickly changed his direction, easily avoiding the bullets.
Spiderman then noticed something terrible; an old man walking down the street up ahead, unaware of the oncoming car. Spiderman increased his speed toward the man. In a second, Spiderman grabbed the man off his feet in his arm, narrowly ahead of the robbers' car. Spiderman then was instantly off on his chase. The man he left behind looked around, confused at what had happened.
Spiderman had restarted his chase, dodging bullets that ricocheted all over the buildings behind them. Then the car did an unexpected turn at the last second, completely throwing off Spiderman. Spiderman then shot out another web and headed toward the direction the car turned. He noticed that the car had driven into a warehouse.
Not a smart move, Spiderman thought. Spiderman skillfully landed on the roof and looked through the glass roof window. All he could see through the stained glass was three figures running around nervously. Spiderman quietly opened the window and crawled through the opening. Spiderman watched them quickly as they all ran around nervously.
"We're so screwed!" one man screamed.
"Shut up or that ass of an arachnid is going to find us!" another hissed. Spiderman stretched an amused smile under his red mask. Not many robbers he had jailed in his life were smart enough to know a word like "arachnid."
"Hey guys! Having fun?" Spiderman asked from above.
"Crud it's the web head!" the smart one called out. "Get him!" With this command, one of the other men tried shot a few bullets at Spiderman with a pistol while another aimed at their enemy with a rifle. All of their shots missed and were quickly dispatched by some of Spidey's webbing shots. As soon as that had been done, Spiderman had dropped down and sent a punch against one man, knocking him out cold.
"Aw crap!" the previous holder of the rifle said, running toward the exit. Spiderman quickly shot out a strand of web, attaching itself to the man's back. He then spun the man around like a merry go round. The remaining thief watched in awe and shock.
"Catch!" Spiderman shouted before releasing the swinging man, knocking straight into the other man, knocking both men out. Spiderman quickly grabbed all three men and webbed them up on a lamppost outside. He then quickly went to the car and grabbed all the jewels. Spiderman quickly dropped off the man's jewels back at the store and headed back to Mary Jane's apartment.

Meanwhile, Mary Jane was asleep, dreaming about Peter again. It was one of her favorites; Peter and Mary Jane on a hill top moving into a kiss that would seal them into each other's lives forever. Then the dream faded into the pair on a cruise for their honeymoon, watching the dreamy sunset.
"Peter…" Mary Jane whispered. Suddenly, she jolted awake at a thud. The first thing her tired eyes had set upon was Peter's blue eyes.
"I woke you up again," Peter spoke faintly.
"It's okay," Mary Jane said sweetly. "Come back to bed." Peter obliged and lay down on the bed, resting his chin against Mary Jane's silky hair. Mary Jane buried her face into Peter's chest, hearing his steady and soothing heartbeat. "I really missed you," Mary Jane said faintly, her words muffled by Peter's spandex shirt.
"I'm sorry about that," Peter apologized again, kissing her head.
"It's pretty hurtful but a second with you more than makes up for it." Peter didn't like Mary Jane's first three words and slightly frowned at it.
"Mary Jane…"
"Oh Peter," Mary Jane whispered. "Let's get back to sleep." Mary Jane looked up to Peter's handsome face and pecked her lips against his before drifting back into peaceful slumber. Peter nested his face into Mary Jane's hair and went back to sleep as well.
