Webhead S2V2

We open as our hero is on the ground mid panic hallucinating the late captain George stacy in the place of police chief yuri watanabe.

"You failed me peter. I trusted you, gwen trusted you and you let us down, you let everyone down" the drug induced vision taunted him.

Spidey is crawling on the ground in horror desperately trying to escape his mistakes that have been brought to the surface by the crazed hunter.

"No nnooo no no I'm sorry captain, I'm so sorry. I failed you captain, I'm sorry." Our hero cries out completely breaking down, consumed by his guilt.

Meanwhile yuri is diligently trying to snap him out of it. "Spider man? Spider Man?! Listen to me! You can't let kraven break you! What you're seeing isn't real! It wasn't your fault, you're stronger than this, you're a hero so fight it. Come on, fight it!"

"I'm sorry I couldn't save you captain. I'll carry it with me the rest of my life but I'm done blaming myself. Goodbye captain stacy." The young super powered man stated boldly to the vision until it faded back into yuri. "It wasn't your fault Spiderman" she told him somberly in what was meant to be a reassuring manner. "Later yuri, right now we need to find kraven." He dismisses her determined to remain focused especially after what that jungle man just did to him.

The two crime fighting partners proceeded to enter the botanical gardens house inside central park very alert for the crazed hunter when suddenly… 'spider sense' a big ass tiger jumps up out of the bushes to attack them only to be webbed to a tree seconds later.

As soon as the large, black striped cat was webbed safely and securely to the tree the madman in a jungle best leaped out from behind wielding a large machete but it's only function was to be used to remove the belt off kravens pants. Truth be told beyond all the spears, machetes, and drugged darts kraven was little more than a pest to the red and blue hero so the webhead will always ALWAYS pants him so he knows his place.

A little while later at the scene of kravens arrest the press are all over the place including bugle reporter Eddie brock and photographer peter parker himself. since goblins death Eddie has been doing better, the story he wrote about it was really well received so it earned him some respect at the media company. As peter was filming eddies interview with the chief he hears the sultry voice of the red headed take no shit speaks her mind Mary jane watson. he hasn't really seen MJ for a while, only a couple glimpses during the summer since she's been busy working at the bulletin.

"Hey tiger long time no see. So how's it been going with you? You started college today didn't you?" She said in a simultaneously upbeat and disappointed tone. Instead of answering any question she asked Pete instead voiced his confusion on what happened between the two of them. "I've just been really busy with the paper and…. Ok look with everything that happened with Gwen, her dad, and I just really needed some space from everything. Gwen's really not been doing well Pete you really should check up on her." She explained before Segwaying into her recurring role of the peter and gwen relationship counselor.

When the young parker boy returned to the Empire State University campus he entered the dining hall and over the course of his meal he saw an Italian man with a large beak nose a rather pronounced gut and grey spiked hair, a skinny balding beady eye ferret man, a large man with short dark hair looking much younger than he actually is walking around the cafeteria area randomly sitting down at tables to eat food off of someone else's plate when a guy with a greying scruffy beard, a flannel shirt and a big ole hat on top of his head sits down at our heroes table and says "I just got off work. I'm a cab driver and I had to give a ride to this giant spider, the whole way he just kept breathing on top of me and poking me, I could really use some lunch. Is that turkey…? I love turkey, can I have your sandwich? I mean I had to deal with a giant spider all day in the back of my cab the least you can do is give me your sandwich."

Alas our young hero wasn't really in the mood to personally deal with Brian quinn or the other three jokers right now. "You're not getting my food Q but it's nice to meet you, I'm a big fan." He told the middle aged comedian before picking up his sandwich and walking off. "I was found out fellas." Q said to the hidden camera while laughing.

Late that night inside fisk tower known to some as crime central the large crime lord the kingpin is meeting with his new business partner to buy some new equipment for his army of petty thugs. "It's good doing business with you again young mister osborn. your goblin equipment is a VERY valuable resource to me, it will make both of us a considerable amount of money" the kingpin announced to harry eagerly as he exchanged the money for harry's goblin tech but the rich and bitter heir seemed little more than annoyed. "I don't particularly care fisk, as long as spider-man suffers." He told him with utter disdain but something about his tone clues fisk on to something… "you seem to have quite an investment in making him suffer and yet you don't kill him yourself when you have the means to do so…. You know who he is don't you?" But kingpin's question was anything but and Harry's only response was to grin wickedly.

A/N why do I always bother myself when I'm drinking? It seems Spidey put Captain Stacy's death behind him rather quickly… he's also definitely quite lost still unable to adjust to all that's changed for him after all he just blew off one of the impractical jokers like it was nothing. I mean his old bully is now his roommate and friend, his friend is now his enemy and his old girlfriend wants nothing to do with him… I guess that's the life of a young superhero…? Until next time true believers!
