Chapter 3: Spider meets Panther

Hey everyone I'm back with a new chapter. For this story I figured why not add a few more Marvel Characters to Super Hero High and make it more interesting. I hope you like what I have in store. Please review and enjoy.

It was pouring rain as clouds covered the city of Metropolis as everyone was driving in their cars going to where ever they needed to go Jaden was stuck on the sidewalk.

"Man, why did it have to break today of all days?" Jaden groans trying to figure out what was wrong with his bike while getting completely soaked.

Suddenly a black car pulls up nearby and the window goes down to reveal a guy around Jaden's age with brown hair.

"Hey, Jaden Cooper." He said.

"Uh yeah." Jaden said not sure who he was.

"It's me Harry Osborn from Science class. Hop on in." Harry said.

Putting his bike in the trunk Jaden climbs in.

"Thanks Harry, you didn't have to do that." Jaden said buckling in.

"Dad, this is the guy I was telling you about he's really smart, but he keeps getting beat up." Harry said to a man sitting across from them. This was Norman Osborn CEO of OSCORP and Harry's dad.

"Sounds like you could use some friends Jaden." Norman said.

"I would love some." Jaden said.

"And perhaps you can help my Harry stay on track with his studies." Norman said.

"Ugh I'd wish you'd stop trying to manage my life." Harry said annoyed.

"Give me a reason not to." Norman said.

"Uh look I know it's not any of my business, but I think it's great your dad cares so much about your studies Harry." Jaden said.

"You sound as if you know from experience." Norman said curious.

"Yeah my dad used to bust my butt every time I stepped out of line." Jaden said.

"And it seems Jaden's none the worse is he Harry?" Norman smiles.

"I don't believe it, he's smiling. My dad is actually smiling how did you do that?" Harry asks surprised.

"It's a gift." Jaden smiles.

And just like that Harry became Jaden's newest friend.

As the car pulls up in front of the school Harry and Jaden get out.

"So Harry want to hang out later today?" Jaden asks.

"Sounds good to me." Harry said as they walked to their lockers.

"Smile Spider-Man." Mary Jane said walking over surprising Jaden.

"Spider-Man? What? Where?" Jaden asks trying not to believe his cover was blown.

"Relax Jaden I'm practicing for my interview with Lois Lane. She plans to find out more about all heroes and that includes Spider-Man so I need to be ready." She said.

"Oh yeah your interview is today." Jaden recalls.

"Wait you mean the girl who does her web videos on those superheroes?" Harry asks.

"Yeah MJ wants to be a reporter." Jaden said.

"Wish me luck Jaden I hope I get it." She said.

"I know you will." Jaden smiles as Mary Jane walks away.

"So, Jaden want to meet up after school as much as I want to deny it I really could use some help." Harry said.

"Sure thing Harry, how about the coffee shop nearby?" Jaden suggests.

"See you there." Harry smiles.

At Super Hero High Barbara Gordon was walking through the halls to Principal Waller's office. Knocking on the door it opens to reveal a large gorilla in a coat and glasses. This was Vice Principal Gorilla Grodd.

"Hi there, I'm here to talk to Principal Waller." Barbra said.

"Come in." Grodd said opening the door for her to walk in.

Sitting at her desk Principal Waller was signing papers when Barbara sits down.

"Ah Ms. Gordon anything I can help you with?" She asks.

"Well I'm here to say I have no clue on where to find Spider-Man, however I've been searching the school records and we might have someone who can." Barbara said getting Principal Waller's attention.

"Tell me more." Principal Waller said as a figure in a black super suit walked in. He had sharp claws and a helmet that resembled a panther. This was Prince T'Challa of Wakanda otherwise known as Black Panther.

"Thanks for agreeing to help." Barbara said as Black Panther nods.

"I am at your service Principal; my tracking skills are very good." He said.

"I just ask that he patrols the city for a bit and reports back at the end of the day." Barbara asks.

"All I need to know is who I am looking for." Black Panther said.

"His name is Spider-Man. I want you to see if he'd be willing to come to Super Hero High." Waller said.

Black Panther nods before leaving the room.

"Smart move asking him for help." Waller said.

"Hopefully he'll be able to at least talk to him." Barbara said.

At the coffee shop Jaden and Harry were going over their homework.

"So, if you carry the one and square it you should figure it out." Jaden said.

"Uh is this right?" Harry asks showing him his answer.

"You got it." Jaden smiles.

"Yes!" Harry said pumping his fist. "Thanks for tutoring me Jaden."

"Thanks for getting me a drink while we were here." Jaden smiles.

Across from the café MJ was sitting down waiting when Lois Lane walks in.

"Mary Jane Watson?" She asks.

"Yep that's me." She said as they shook hands.

"Lois Lane, always a pleasure to meet someone who wants to be a reporter." Lois said sitting down next to her. "So tell me Mary Jane why do you want to follow me?"

"Superheroes have always been misjudged because of the damage villains make while fighting them. People should realize they are here to help us like they're trying to do." Mary Jane said.

Hearing this Lois smiles. "I like the way you think. Welcome aboard partner." Lois smiles.

"Seriously? MJ smiles. "Thank you."

Jumping from the rooftops Black Panther was searching Metropolis for any sign of Spider-Man.

"Hmm been a slow day, not many Save the Day alarms." He said looking around.

From the corner near the bank a large explosion went off. Looking towards it Black Panther sees a man in a green jumpsuit and yellow star like mask. This was Electro and he was robbing Metropolis Bank.

"Sorry officers if you think you can stop me you're in for a shock!" Electro said zapping them all with blasts of electricity.

Jumping down Black Panther lands across from Electro.

"Picking on the weak is pathetic how about trying your hand at a real opponent." Black Panther said letting out his claws.

Electro looks at his new challenge. "I see a brat from Super Hero High, this should be fun." Electo grins dropping the sacks of money and letting electricity flow through his fingers.

At the coffee shop Lois and Mary Jane were talking when Lois got a phone call.

"Lois Lane here." Lois said answering it. "No way. I'll be right there." Lois hangs up and looks at MJ. "We got a fight over at the Metropolis bank it's perfect first story for you."

"No way." She said as they ran out not knowing that Jaden overheard them.

"Uh hey Harry think we can stop for today?" Jaden asks.

Harry looks at his watch. "Whoa no wonder you want a break. Thanks for everything Jaden, maybe next time we can hang at my place?"

"Yeah sounds great Harry." Jaden said grabbing his stuff. "See you tomorrow."

As Jaden ran down an alley he changes into his Spider-Man outfit and fires a web swinging into the air.

At the bank Black Panther was running around dodging Electro's attacks.

"What's a matter cat boy where's that challenge you were gonna give me?" Electro laughs.

Jumping off a car Black Panther slides under Electro's electric attacks and sweeps his leg knocking Electro to the ground before delivering a powerful kick to his gut.

"How's that for a challenge?" Black Panther said standing up.

Electro picks himself up off the ground and glares at him when he notices the various Parking Meters around him.

Smirking Electro stands up and releases a wave of electricity zapping all the parking meters, Black Panther looks to see what was happening when electricity came from all of them zapping him making him scream in pain and drop to his knees.

As Electro was about to strike him a web attaches to his hands and flings him into a car.

"Hey Starfish head what's deal? Stealing from Parking meters now? Talk about pathetic." Black Panther and Electro look up to see Spider-Man drop down.

From down the street Lois and Mary Jane were standing in front of a camera reporting.

"And folks this fight just got interesting as Super Hero High's Black Panther gets an unexpected assist from everyone's friendly neighborhood Spider-Man." Mary Jane said.

"Talk about a fight, don't touch anything folks this fight is getting interesting." Lois said.

Spider-Man walks over and helps Black Panther up.

"You okay?" He asks.

"Thank you for that." Black Panther said as they turn to face Electro who was really pissed off.

"You're from Super Hero High huh? Don't suppose bashing bad guys is a course?" Spider-Man asks.

"First one every student takes." Black Panther said.

Electro fires blasts at them, but both heroes jump out of the way. Running forward Black Panther swipes at Electro with his claws, but Elector dodges them and fires a blast at Spider-Man who was climbing along a building.

Jumping off it Spider-Man dives to deliver a punch but Electro zaps him sending him smashing into Black Panther.

"Ugh I am not used to having backup on my fights." Spider-Man groans getting up.

"A good fighter should be prepared for everything. We need to find a way to stop him." Black Panther said.

Spider-Man looks around and notices Black Panther's claws.

"Hey I might have an idea that can get you close enough to hit him." Spider-Man said.

"And that would be?" Black Panther asks as Spider-Man shoots his webbing around Black Panther's claws. "What is this?!" Black Panther asks in anger and in surprise.

"If you want to hit him trust me." Spider-Man said.

Electro fires a blast at them and Black Panther holds up his webbed claws only for the blast to be absorbed by the webbing.

Surprised by this Black Panther look to Spider-Man.

"Can I ask you to be a distraction?"

"Count on it." Spider-Man said shooting a web at a lamppost allowing him to swing towards Electro. "Come and get me Mr. Zappy!"

"You'll roast for that Spidey!" Electro said firing blast after blast at Spider-Man.

Using this opening Black Panther charged forward. Electro fires electricity at him, but thanks to Spidey's webs Black Panther slashed through each blast before he delivers a powerful punch to the face sending Electro smashing into a car window setting off the alarm.

As Electro tried to get up Spider-Man blasts him with webs trapping him in them.

"That outta hold him until the cops show up." Spider-Man said as Black Panther walks over tearing the webbing off his claws. "That was some pretty cool moves. What do they call you?"

"I am Black Panther."

"Spider-Man." Spidey said as they shook hands.

"You know Super Hero High is open to all Superheroes we could use someone like you." Black Panther said.

"Thanks Panther but right now I'm good where I am, I got a good handle on things." Spider-Man said.

"Think it over, you never know my friend we make a pretty good team." Black Panther said handing Spider-Man a Super Hero High Brochure.

"Maybe, see you around." Spidey said shooting webs and swinging off into the city.

Looking at the webbing Black Panther puts a sample in a vial.

"It's not Spider-Man, but maybe this will do for now." Black Panther said leaving.

At the camera Mary Jane and Lois had seen the whole fight.

"You were great MJ you're a natural." Lois smiles.

"Thanks Lois does this mean I can be your co-reporter?" Mary Jane smiles.

"I think you and I are going to make quite a team." Lois smiles.

Back at his house Jaden changes into his normal clothes and sits down at his desk before taking out the brochure for Super Hero High.

"I wonder what dad would say to this?" Jaden puts the brochure down to see a family photo on his desk where he and his parents were at the beach together smiling.

Picking it up Jaden couldn't help but smile. "Who knows maybe I'll run into some more students."

At Super Hero High Barbara was working in the lab when Black Panther walks in.

"Were you able to find Spider-Man?" She asks turning around to face him.

"Yes, he is quite the fighter and very smart. He could give you a run for your money Barbra." Black Panther said walking over and taking off his helmet to reveal a black teenager with short hair.

"Oh really? Well I'm never one to shy away from a fellow intellect. Did he say he would join the school?" Barbara asks.

"He's not sure at the moment, but I did bring this." T'Challa places the vial of webbing on her computer. "Maybe this will help."

Barbara picks it up and gazes at the webbing.
