Legacy
Normal. What new meaning have we given that word? The word we use so often now to describe the natural humans we read about everyday in the morning paper. But what is normal? Taking out the trash every so often or is it the common Saturday morning of washing your car? Well face it. If we all did that we would be the exact same being. But it's been proven that we are all different but equal. That can only mean that we are not normal. Let me find another word.
We are all different, unique. Yes that is the word. We are all unique.
If I am unique, then I must be the most uncommon creature on this planet. I am different from every human I have known. Do you want to now why? Well everyone asks that question and few are lucky enough to receive the answer.
First look at a spider. What are your first impressions? Well it's dark, mysterious and powerful. Now look at a human being. Again what do you think when you see another body of flesh? It looks enough like you. Hair, skin, doesn't matter what shade. Eyes are different, but everyone sees the world differently. But, but what would you see if you saw in front of you these species combined?
A Spider Man with the supernatural abilities to spin webs and climb walls like your three-year-old. (However if your three-year-old actually was climbing the walls I'd suggest a good doctor.) Yes, that sounds familiar. It's the same hero from the comic books, right? Peter Parker the man who was built by a spider and became the spider. Or rather inherited the traits of the creature. Yes it is the same. But my story is different. I am different.
After the first hero of webbing technology appeared on the front pages, of course there were questions. How did this happen? My father, as a boy, grew up around the legacy of Spider Man. Forgive my choice of words but he was a scientist freak. He knew there was a certain way to make another wall climbing hero. He took into captivity many species of spiders. Taking their DNA and combining it, he was sure he had the crime-fighting weapon.
All he needed was a final test. The man he chose happened to be me, his own son. The results, alas, it was I who became the next, and by accident or purpose I may never know. But I now have a job. I have great power and with that power comes great responsibility. My own curse and blessing.

* ssp47's Corner * I might as well start with a Disclaimer. No, of course a pathetic mortal like me can't own spider man. There that's done. Ok here are my author notes. I'll update this again soon so if you liked it please review. I want feedback and I need constructive criticism. Oh yeah and that last couple of lines were quotes from the movie.
