"Video Diary- Entry Two"

Even though I have such a fun time going around solving crimes, which is something I do as a consultant for the NYPD, I also have a life with my friends. I skip a lot of school days, but I still get exceptionally good grades. There is one mystery I hope to solve though. Whenever I'm at school, I try to be inconspicuous. Hiding in plain sight.

"End"

Peter walked into Midtown High School. He walked alone down the hallways, until Flash came up to him. Distracted in thoughts about his consultation, he didn't notice himself tripping and hitting the floor. He felt pain flare in his body and he jumped up.

Three Hour Later

Gwen looked at Peter with concern. Gwen was worried about Peter. He almost never came to school and was often late when he did show up. However, he still had some of the best grades in the class. Gwen had known Peter for a long time and had feelings for him. Peter never did anything with Harry and her after school. They weren't really friends but just acquaintances at most. So when Gwen was bitten by a radioactive spider at ESU and became Spider Woman, she didn't tell Peter. Surprisingly, she didn't tell Harry either, but Mazikeen, Peter's friend and confidant, seemed to know. She felt she could see Mazikeen in a face that resembled a demon standing over her corpse. Honestly, she was freaked out by Mazikeen and wondered why Peter and Mazikeen were so close.

Gwen really did like Peter though. She was watching him across the classroom as he sat fiddling with a odd looking coin in his hands. She could have sworn she saw the coin float for a minute in the air though. Gwen then felt her Spider Sense tingle. The period suddenly ended and the class started to rush out of the classroom. Gwen quickly jumped out a window and saw the Rhino in the middle of a hostage situation. She quickly swung off.

Two Hours Later

Gwen Stacy walked into her 7th period class and all of a sudden Peter burst out laughing. The teacher, Mr. Hamilton turned around and faced Peter. He asked, "What is so funny Peter?"

Peter said, "The fact that one of your students just walked in right now, and in three seconds, something amazing will happen."

The teacher glared at Gwen, but at that moment, the bell rang and class was dismissed. Gwen was blushing and she saw Peter's amused face as he looked at her. Gwen thought Peter saw her a nerd. Peter and Mazikeen all of a sudden walked over to her and said, "We are hosting an amazing party, and Maze here has convinced me to invite you."

Mazikeen looked over at Gwen and winked and slipped her a card. She proceeded to whisper in her ear, "Bring a fun plus one."

As they walked away, she looked at the card and it was just the name of a club. The club's name was Lux and on the back it said Gwen Stacy. Seeing Harry in the hallway, she walked up to him and showed him the card. She asked, "What do you know about this club?"

Harry looked at the card and his eyes widened. Harry said, "How did you get an invite to an exclusive party at Lux? Please take me with you. Please."

Gwen, quite shocked, replied, "Sure, but what do you know about it."

Harry said, "Well, the owner is apparently pretty young. That is what my dad says. Then he said it was really entertaining and he doesn't say that about anything. Then I started to zone out, but we have got to go."

Nine PM

Peter was partying in his penthouse at Lux. Models, actors, anyone who was anyone was at the party, and Peter was drunk and high already. Whilst he was seducing two models, Gwen and Harry walked in with formal clothes and saw Peter.

Harry looked around in astonishment at the party and immediately grabbed a drink and started to flirt with models. Gwen walked up to Peter and said, "You own Lux, but how is this club not being held up by the Big Man or Kingpin?"

Peter raised an eyebrow. "Why does that matter? Have fun, you mortals have one life."

As Peter walked away Gwen wondered about everything he has said to her. He always seemed to consider himself above everything. But how was he able to dodge the people who controlled every aspect of sin in New York?

The Next Day

Peter woke up next to two models and walked into his penthouse. He felt someone watching him but shrugged it off. He then poured himself a whiskey, downed it then got into a suit and tie.

Downstairs, in the nightclub, there was a complete mess. Drinks were everywhere. Peter saw an unfinished cosmopolitan and drank it. After shooing out a few stragglers and having the nightclub cleaned, Peter sat with Maze at the bar and told her about the pain he felt. Maze responded, "It's nothing. You are still the devil. You have your wings and your devil face."

Peter said, "Don't you think something is missing? I feel like something should be happening right now."

Peter then saw Detective Stacy walk in. Detective Stacy said, "A child counselor was murdered. We've been assigned to the case."

As Peter and Detective Stacy left, Peter's stalker was revealed to be Spider Woman. As she followed him, she saw what looked like the Big Man's men burst into Lux. Spider Woman quickly ran into Lux, only to see Maze standing behind the bar pouring a drink for herself while the men laid unconscious on the floor. Maze noticed Gwen and said, "Come here Gwen, have a drink."

Gwen, still in her Spider Woman costume, responded, "I'm not Gwen. I'm Spider Woman. The vigilante that swings around New York?"

Maze rolls her eyes. "Whatever, just take a drink."

Gwen looks at the drink apprehensively. "We are underage."

"Peter and I do it. Literally everyone at the party you were at last night did it."

Gwen just runs out of Lux and swings away. Maze rolls her eyes and says, "Fucking goody two shoes."

With Peter and Detective Stacy

Peter was in Detective Stacy's house. Peter asked, "Why are we at your residence?"

Detective Stacy said, "I accidentally left some notes here, just wait."

Trixie walked into Peter and immediately ran over and hugged him. Peter laughed and said, "What are you doing here Peter?"

Peter said "I help your dad with his job, and he needed help."

Gwen walked in and saw Peter talking with Trixie. If she just heard what Peter was about to say, she would have figured out Peter's secret.
