A/N OMG I'm sorry it took FOREVER! but...I couldn't figure out what to write, for I had a major mind block. Anyways this is, infact, the last chapter (if you don't cound the epilogue) so I hope you guys enjoy it. I will warn you: There isn't much action. Also I was going to draw a 'cover pic' for it to put on DeviantART and I have a really cool idea, BUT I can't do poses at all. And as for the title, I know it stinks, I came up with it literally 1 minute before I put this on the site. Whatever, Anyways lets get on to this ok?

Along Came a Spider
Chapter 18: Final Moments
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
It was late Friday night by the time they all got back to New York, so everyone just decided to turn in for the night and head home for the long-awaited sleep.
Danny and Peter arrived at Peter's place around 11:00, and Danny headed straight to bed, falling into it and going instantly to sleep. Peter though, decided to stay up.
We made up, saved our friends, got trapped in a tangled web of lies and pain, and somehow managed to beat all odds and win, all in one day, he thought as he sat at the table, and he slowly fell asleep there as he thought
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
"Hey, Tucker, before you head on up to bed, can we talk?" Harry asked as they arrived back at his mansion.
"Yeah sure, about what?" Tucker asked, sort of already knowing the answer.
"Just stuff, okay?" Harry replied.
He unlocked the door and they headed inside to the main living room. They both sat down on the couch and Harry gave a rather large sigh.
"Listen, I haven't been a good 'mentor' or anything this week, and I'm sorry," Harry began.
"No need for apologies, dude. It's okay," Tucker said, interrupting him. "I know it wasn't your fault."
"I know, but I still feel really bad, so if there's anything at all I can do for you, just ask," Harry continued.
"How 'bout you take off work tomorrow and we just goof off?" Tucker suggested.
"Okay, you got a deal," Harry said, standing up, then motioning to the mirror-door and adding, "But first, I'm going to get rid of all that stuff."
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
It was the next morning, Saturday, the last day of the intern program before everyone had to go home that night. Danny woke up to find Peter sleeping with his head on the table, and drool coming out of his mouth.
"Hey, Pete, wake up," Danny said, nudging him. "Why did you sleep there?"
"I was thinking and I guess I just dozed off," Peter said, then got up. "Oh yeah, today's the last day of the trip for you. What should we do?"
"Just hang out, but if any 'problems' come along, don't feel hesitant to do your thing," Danny said.
"You too. You really saved my butt yesterday, everyone did," Peter added.
"No problem, that's what friends are for," Danny said.
"Yeah, well let's agree to never fight again over that stupid stuff," Peter replied.
"Well now that we know everything basically, there's nothing to fight about," Danny concluded.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
"Hey, Sam, wake up. It's getting late," MJ said as she nudged Sam awake. It was, in fact, 11:30 and Sam was still in bed. They had all had a hard night, so it was perfectly explainable.
"Wha...oh okay, fine," Sam said, sitting up in her bed.
"Today's you guys' last day. What should we do?" Mary Jane asked her.
"I don't know. Call Peter and ask him," Sam said with a yawn.
MJ left the room and five minutes later came back in.
"Okay if we meet Peter and Danny, along with Harry and Tucker for lunch in about a half hour?" she asked, still holding the phone with Peter on the other line.
"Sure," was all Sam answered as she rummaged through her bag for something to wear, finally choosing her 'Save the Sea Lions' T-shirt that she had bought the other day.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Thirty minutes later they were all outside a local deli.
"I can't believe it's our last day," Tucker commented as they entered the restaurant.
"I know. The weeks just fly past, don't they?" Peter answered.
"I sure am going to miss this city," Danny added with a sigh.
"Don't worry, guys. I'll send you all tickets to my play that's debuting next month," MJ finished.
"That would be fun," Sam concluded as they sat down at a table and prepared for their meals.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
After lunch they all decided to just go for a walk in Central Park, and at Sam's request, headed straight for the Sea Lion exhibit at the zoo.
"Oh come on, Sam. It's been like at least a half hour," Tucker complained after staring at those boring sea lions for what seemed like forever.
"Yeah, Sam, you really should let Tucker and Danny decide something to do, since they're leaving tonight too," Peter added.
"Oh fine, but let me make one quick stop at the gift shop, okay?" Sam replied glumly.
She emerged ten minutes later carrying what looked like a very large stuffed sea lion.
"I thought you already got one of those?" Danny asked, puzzled.
"I did, but he needs a friend," Sam replied.
"I think she's finally gone off the deep end," Tucker whispered into Danny's ear as they left the zoo.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
"You know, we should probably head home so you guys can pack for tonight," Harry said, three pretzels and two hotdogs later.
"Yeah, your plane leaves at seven and we can't be late," Peter replied.
"Speak for yourself. You're always late," MJ said with a smile. Everyone laughed because they all knew what she was talking about.
"Oh fine, we might as well," Danny said with a sigh as they left the park and headed to the cars.
Once they got to the cars they all said goodbye until that night, when they would all see each other one last time.
"I sure am gonna miss you guys," Danny said with a sigh as he got into Peter's car.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
After packing, Danny and Peter headed down to their favorite cafe for a quick bite before the plane. They sat down at their usual table and ordered their stuff.
"So I guess everything is going to go back to normal now that we're leaving, right?" Danny asked Peter as they waited. "No more ghost attacks, no more headlines starring pictures of me."
"Yeah, I'll miss that when they start again with those stupid pictures of me saying 'good or evil?' on them," Peter said with a laugh.
"Then why do you even take those pictures?"
"I need the money," was all he could answer.
Just then the waitress arrived with their food, a basic coffee for Danny (A/N does Danny drink coffee?) and a cappuccino for Peter.
"That will be $5.60" the waitress told them. Just then Danny's ghost sense went off, and Peter saw it and quickly reached into his pockets.
"Here, keep the change!" he said as he shoved a ten dollar bill into the lady's hand and they both ran off, leaving their coffees behind.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
"Don't tell me Vlad's back!" Peter yelled as they ran down the alley and he quickly donned his gear.
"Nah, I doubt it. I have the key to the specter deflector and with that thing on, there's no way he can 'go ghost' without major pain," Danny yelled back as he quickly went ghost and they both ran towards the danger.
They turned a corner to find none other than the Box Ghost.
"BEWARE my cardboard vengeance!"
"Who the heck is he?" Peter asked as he turned to Danny.
"Don't worry, I can take care of this," Danny replied, grabbing a Fenton Thermos (A/N notice how in the show alot of the time the thermos is just kinda there?) and hitting the open button, quickly sucking the Box Ghost inside.
"That was easy," Peter said, removing his mask.
"Yeah," Danny answered, returning to normal.
Suddenly there came a beeping noise. Peter looked down to see his watch alarm was going off.
"Shoot! We're going to miss the plane!" he yelled as they ran back to the car where Danny's luggage was.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
"Let me guess. Ghost troubles?" Sam asked at the airport as Peter and Danny FINALLY pulled up, looking winded.
"Just the Box Ghost," Danny said, holding up the thermos.
"Well, you're late. If we don't hurry, they'll be stuck here with us forever," Harry explained.
"Dude, you make it sound like a bad thing," Tucker said as they headed towards the gate. Upon arriving everyone had one final goodbye.
"So we are definitely going to stay in contact, right?" Sam asked.
"Of course," MJ replied. Despite their initial reactions (mainly Sam's), they had grown to become very good friends over the past week. Of course, who doesn't when they live with someone for that long.
"Promise you'll write if anything 'suspicious' happens?" Danny asked Peter.
"Only if you don't mind a letter every day," Peter answered with a smile, then added "Of course I will silly!"
"Good, I will too," Danny explained. "Don't forget to keep me up to date on that ghost stuff, Harry. I could totally use those weapons sometime," Danny added, turning to Harry.
"I will, and Tucker, I'll keep you up on all the new technology at Oscorp too, okay?"
"Deal," Tucker said, shaking Harry's hand one last time.
"Well I guess this is it," Danny exclaimed as he saw Mr. Lancer ushering them over to him where some of the other students were already standing.
"Have a safe trip, guys," MJ called as they waved back to the group.
"We will, don't worry!" Sam replied back as they reached Mr. Lancer.
"Hey, Fentony, have a nice week?" Dash asked sarcastically as he 'accidentally' on purpose bumped into Danny.
If you only knew, he thought as they entered the plane gate for home.
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
A/N OMG It's over! Ok well there is an epilogue, if I ever have time to write it. Isn't the ending funny. Also please tell me it wasn't rushed, I don't think it was rushed, but it might be a lil. Oh well just review ok?
