LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Within a slightly messy apartment, Luna Loud was sitting on her couch with Sam lying on her lap. As the two of them sat on their couch, Luna's phone began to vibrate and she pulled it out to check her texts.

"Oh great." Luna groaned in a whisper before deleting the message.

"Don't tell me. Work." Sam said in annoyance.

"Yeah. I'm sorry, but..." Luna tried to say before Sam cut her off.

"I understand. You gotta keep working until we make it big." Sam said before giving Luna a quick peck on the lips.

'Yeah. I just hope we have a chance to make it big.' Luna thought as she got in her car and began driving to her job.

(The next morning, with Ronnie Anne)

"So, Lynn's okay, that Lizard thing didn't hurt her?" Ronnie Anne asked after Lincoln told her the story of what had happened at the game.

"Yeah. Right now, she's staying at Luan's place until things calm down." Lincoln said.

"Well, it's a good thing Spiderman showed up or things could have gotten a lot worse." Ronnie Anne said, hiding her suspicions masterfully.

"Yeah. We really were lucky." Lincoln said before a beeping was heard by the two of them.

"Sorry, Ronnie Anne. I gotta go." Lincoln said, gaining a nod from the Hispanic girl.

"Alright. Smell you later, lame-o." Ronnie Anne said with a smile before hanging up. She then looked down at a metal pipe before throwing a tennis ball as high as she could. She then kicked the pipe in to her hand and hit the ball back up when it fell to her before she drops the pipe to the ground and leapt on several beams to get to the ball and slice it in mid air before kicking off the ceiling to get to the ground before the sliced ball and catch both halves in her hands.

"I could get used to this." She said with a smirk.

(With Lincoln)

I'm assuming that beep meant the suit is one hundred percent finished." Lincoln said as he walked up behind Lisa.

"Indeed it is, big brother." Lisa said before pressing in a few keys on her computer and the pod with Lincoln's suit opened suit opened.

"Alright. I've got a couple hours before school. I'll run through a crash coarse on my morning patrol." Lincoln said before grabbing the suit.

"Alright. Be careful." Lisa said before Lincoln climbed out the window.

About twenty minutes later, Spiderman landed on a rooftop in the city.

"Okay, let's start out slow. Engage complete activation." Spiderman said as the AR functions of his suit activated.

"Good morning, Lincoln." A feminine voice said in his ear.

"Good morning, computer. Has Lisa given you a name or am I just gonna be calling you 'computer'?" Spiderman asked.

"Lisa thought that you'd like to be the one to give me a name." The computer said before Spiderman placed his hand to his chin.

"How about... Karen? You sound like a Karen." Spiderman said.

"Okay, you can call me Karen." The computer said.

"Alright, let's get started. Run a scan for any crimes in progress within an hour swing of Midtown High." Spiderman said as Karen began to search.

"None in progress. But there is a crime scene investigation four point three blocks from our current position.

"Well, that could be worth checking out." Spiderman said.

"Would you like be to plot out a path for you?" Karen asked before Spiderman shook his head.

"Nah. Just give me a compass to point the way and I can make my way there." Spiderman said as an arrow appeared on his H.U.D and he made his way to the crime scene.

Upon arriving at the scene, he saw Sergeant Williams standing there along with a C.S.I team.

"What happened here?" Spiderman said as he webbed down.

"I like the new suit." Williams said with a whispered chuckle. "The Apocalypse gang hit this music store last night."

"I've heard of those guys. They apparently like to put the 'Punk' in Punk Rock." Spidey said as they entered the wrecked store.

"Yeah, but now they've started to take things to far." Williams said before leading Spiderman to a dead body.

Spiderman turned his head away for a moment before letting a slow exhale through his nose.

'Focus, Spidey. You knew this would be part of the job.' He thought before tapping on his right temple twice for Karen to scan the body.

"The cause of death was a shot a point blank range to the heart with a forty caliber bullet." Karen told Spiderman as he relayed the information to Williams.

"No one's been able to find a shell. Probably a revolver." Williams reasoned.

"I'll keep my eyes open. We can get that gun we might be able to get a few of these guys behind bars." Spiderman said as he began to walk out.

"There's another problem." Williams said as Spiderman turned to face him. "This store is dangerously close to Dragon Tails territory. I don't know if this is just one branch of the Apocalypse or the whole gang. But if they move any further..." He led.

"We could have a gang war on our hands." Spiderman finished. "I'll stop this. I promise." He said, gaining a nod from Williams before webbing away.

Lincoln spent the next few hours at school while having Karen run searches on any guns that were bought or stolen of the same caliber as the one used in the murder as well as checking traffic cams for any cars in the area at the time. Afterwards, he instructed Lucy to pick up Lisa and the twins so he could continue his work on the streets.

"Okay, Karen. You got anything? Spidey asked.

"Three SUVs. were seen fleeing the scene. According to traffic cameras. All three are currently on the other moving towards Hell's Kitchen.

"Good. Bring up a distance meter and a compass. With any luck, I can get the gun in one go." He said as he ran up a wall before getting high enough to start swinging.

Spiderman continued through the sky for several minutes before he reached a point above the three cars the Apocalypse gang were driving.

Within one of the cars, a gang member noticed that Spiderman was tailing them.

"We've got a costume tailing us. Move!" He shouted before signaling the other two cars before all three began speeding away from Spiderman.

In order to pick up speed, Spiderman began quickly pulling and launching himself of of lamp posts.

"He's catching up!" Shoot him!" The gangster said.

"No! If we shoot at him, he'll zero in on us. If we hold and let the others shoot at him..." The driver led.

"He'll go after them and we can get away." The gangster said before lowering his gun and like clockwork, one of the cars began shooting at the young hero and he zeroed in on that one.

Spidey chased, the car for blocks, a combination of his own speed and reflexes mixed with Karen calculating the trajectory of the bullets allowing him to spin away every time someone got a shot off.

"We gotta end this before some one gets hurt." Spidey said before dropping to avoid another shot and then using his webs to gum up the back tires. He then took the chance given to him by the car getting slowed to jump on the roof only to be met with more bullets to dodge as he made his way up front, forced the hood open and webbed up the engine, causing the car to stop.

Spiderman then flipped off the car as the gang members got outs. Spidey prepared his web shooters to grab the guns when suddenly a wall of flames appeared between him and the gangsters.

"Alright, you three. Put the guns down and we'll go easy on ya." Said a large man in a hat and trench coat before the gangster turned and shot at him only for the bullets to bounce off. "Have it your way." He said while shaking his head. "Light 'em up, kid." He said before a tower of flame erupted behind him and shot out three steady blasts of heat that heated their guns before they dropped them in pain as the trench coated man walked up and bonked the center gangster with his fist made of orange stones before picking up the other two and banging their heads together.

"Holy crap." Spidey said as the flames dissipated and he saw above the trench coated man was a young man completely covered in fire. "The Human Torch." He whispered before the man in the trench coat took off his hat to reveal a rocky face. "The Thing." He whispered in just as much awe .

Spidey quickly recovered himself and approached the two members of the famous 'Fantastic Four', Johnny Storm and Ben Grimm. "Wow. Th-thanks for the help." He said as he held out his hand which the Human Torch took in a shake after his flames disappeared to reveal a blue and black uniform with a four in the center of a white circle on the center of his chest.

"Any time. People like us need to look out for each other." The Human Torch said as the Thing walked up.

"Speaking of 'guys like us'. You might want to want to come back to Baxter Building with us." The Thing said before Spidey pressed on his mask to see that the other two cars had escaped and had been ditched.

"Yeah. That sounds awesome." Spidey answered as the three of them traveled to the headquarters and home of the Fantastic Four.

Upon arriving at the Baxter Building, Spiderman was quickly greeted by the remaining two members of the Fantastic Four, a man with brown hair that had grey sides, and a blonde woman, both of whom were clad in the same uniform as Johnny. Reed and Sue Richards.

"Dr. Richards. It's an honor to meet you." Spidey said extending his hand to shake Reed's hand.

"The pleasure is mine, Spiderman." Reed said as he returned the shake.

"Please. Call me, Lincoln." Spidey said as he took off his mask. "So, not to be rude. But why am I here?" He asked as Reed signaled for him to take a seat.

"I'm assuming by the mask, you don't want your identity to be public." Reed said, gaining a nod from Lincoln. "Some time ago, I was speaking with some colleagues in our line of work and we made a decision to provide aid to those who were up and coming." He said.

"How so?" Lincoln asked.

"The job doesn't leave time to think about taking care of yourself. But thankfully a few of the people in it happen to have day jobs that fit with just that." Ben said as Reed pulled out two cards. One reading 'Nelson and Murdock: Attorneys at Law and the other 'Claire Temple MD'.

"Thanks. With my family's budget, we could use this. This does extend to them, right?" Lincoln asked, gaining a smile from Sue.

"Yes, your family will have just as much access as you do." Sue told him with a kind smile.

"That's good." Lincoln said before thinking of something. "Uh. Do you have a pen and some paper?" He asked before Reed handed him just that. "Here's my phone number, incase you guys need my help."

"And here are ours." Reed said as he handed a piece of paper with the numbers of the four on it.

"Thanks. Now, I should really get back to looking for the Apocalypse gang." Lincoln said before putting his mask back on.

"Alright. Johnny will escort you out." Reed said as Johnny led Lincoln to the roof.

"See you around, man and remember. If you ever need us. Just call." Johnny said as he and Lincoln did a hand clasp.

"Same to you, Johnny." Spidey said before giving Johnny a mock solute before jumping off the top of the Baxter Building and beginning to swing through the city once again.

(Meanwhile)

The Apocalypse gang members made it back to a hideout they had in Hell's Kitchen.

"What happened?" One of the higher ranking members asked.

"The new costume was chasing us. We lost D. Thankfully our favorite wheel girl was smart enough to keep us from being tailed." One of the gangsters replied as the higher up looked to the driver, who was still in the shadows.

"Heh. Keep up stuff like that and you'll be fully paid off in a year or so, Loud." He said as the driver stepped out of the shadows to reveal Luna.

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

And on that twist, we will call it a chapter. Next time a confrontation between siblings and Lincoln making a few more new friends. Until then and as always... Keep on keeping on.
