Chapter 5: In Mid-flight
At Adrian Toomes work station in Oscorp…
"I have perfected it!" he exclaimed.
He was levitating off of the floor, "Now to test the wings!"
He pressed a button on the harness and he landed on the floor. He walked over to a pair of wings. He hooked the wings to the back of the harness. The wings were all metal with individual metal feathers. There was a handle on each wing's joint. The handle's could turn to fold the wings in and out. He turned it one way and they folded out.
Adrian Toomes was a bald man, he had brown eyes, and also he was very old looking. He started to put green armor of his harness and other parts of his body. Soon his armor was completely on.
"Time for the last test!" he said.
He climbed up a ladder leading to a sort of porch sticking from the wall. It was a dark night, perfect for the test. He jumped from the porch. He turned the handle and the wings spread. He glided but he quickly press the anti gravity button on his armor. Now he had perfect control of his flight. The night vision goggles he had on helped him see.
He took dives and swoops at the people below…many looked at him in awe.
He did aerial tricks; there were no bugs in this flight. Then he turned towards the museum. He lost any viewers by dipping into alleys. Then he pressed a button on his armor, the suit blended in with the background somewhat. He lowered himself to the top of the museum. He turned the cloak off. He locked the wing into a folded mode.
He started opening a hole with a metal feather. His other wing had a feather stabbed in the middle. He pulled out the concrete circle. He then aimed a wing into the building and pressed a button on the armor. A gas of some sort was spreading through the museum showing any infrareds lasers. He did some aerial acrobatics to avoid them and folded the wings. He was now levitating above a huge gem. He took a feather from a wing and cut the glass open. He used the other to poke through the glass to not alert everyone.
He then grabbed the gem replacing it with a clock. He folded out his wings and flew back the way he came from. He flew all over town until he came to a tall tower, 'The Vulture's nest.'
He though and he flew in and put the gem in a pile of gold and jewels.
"Test complete," he smiled, "Perfect!"
The next day at the Parker household…
"The cats-eye gem was stolen from a museum in New York City," said the reporter, "We have no clue who the suspect is, because the gas in the room fogged the cameras."
"Another robber?" asked Peter to himself, "They seem to be appearing all over the place."
"Peter you need to head to school," said Aunt May, "I am off to work."
"Okay Aunt May!" he yelled after her.
When she left he went outside and repeated his web swinging routine. Zipping from one web to the next. He arrived at school and took off his web shooters.
He walked inside and headed to Connors class.
"Today class we have a new student," said Dr. Connors, "Max Dillon."
He waved meekly and found a desk off to the corner. He was pretty shy and didn't speak much at all.
Then Harry said, "Hey Peter did you hear about that Herman Schultz guy that works for my dad is a crook?"
"No," Peter lied to throw off any suspicions.
"Well its been causing a bit of trouble for my dad," said Harry, "It's causing him to have a few troubles about who he hires…also recently Dr. Octavius left, seemingly with no reason."
"That's strange," said Peter he kind of liked the guy.
"Also he took all of his work with him, only his computer stuff is left," said Harry, "He took the beam and all."
"That's too bad," he said.
"It's like he fell off the face of the earth," Harry responded.
Then Peter was done talking. He turned around and admired Gwen Stacy a bit. He drifted off into space thinking about things.
At lunch time…
He sat with Harry and MJ, in their secluded corner and started talking about schoolwork. Also they were talking about going over to Harry's place one night. Flash and Kong walked over to make fun of Peter.
They soon leaved when they saw Max Dillon enter Flash said, "New kid!"
He had malicious grin on his face and walked over to Max Dillon and did a kick that connected with Max. He fell over to the ground and said, "One of these days it will be all of you cowering over me!"
"What was that?" asked Kong, "Wedgie?"
He gave Max a huge wedgie, and then they both walked away. Max went to sit in the corner and work on science homework.
He was quite good at it. In fact you could say he was a genius when it came to science and math. He was writing very fast on the paper. He then stood up and decided to go for a walk.
A storm started to move on to the school grounds. Soon it was getting out of hand lightning was striking and thunder was booming.
Five minutes later…
Max was walking under a power line when suddenly lightning struck the line and it snapped in half. One half hit him and he was shocked. He fell unconscious.
Several hours later…
He was in a hospital and his parents were there. They were trying to get out of paying the bill he saw. He looked at his hand it was sparking. He started to think about it and the sparks stopped.
'It must have been my imagination,' he thought.
On Peter's way home from school…
He was swinging through New York in his Spider-man costume when he caught a glint of something shiny. He looked up and saw a man with huge wings looked like a green bird. He was carrying a jewel of some sort. He realized it was the weird guy on the news. So he swung up to his altitude.
"I don't think that's yours!" he yelled to the birdman.
Adrian turned to him and waved a wing a sharp feather flew at him. The buzz went through Peter's head and he did an aerial flip to avoid it.
"Okay…so you're the burglar?" he asked.
Adrian launched another feather at him and Peter avoided it, "Spider-man I am much too busy to deal with the likes of you!"
"But come on!" said Spider-man, "I think you and I should spend some quality time together!"
He shot two webs one hit a wing the other missed. He threw Vulture somewhat off balance. Vulture press a button on his suit a round ball rolled out of the spot before the joint of his wing into his hand.
"I need to get this home so take my farewell present," he said.
He tossed the ball and Spider-man caught it. The buzzing happened, "Oh sh-"
He was caught off the ball exploded into a bright light blinding him. He started falling to the concrete below. He saved himself with a web trampoline. He then looked over to where Adrian last was.
"He got away," he said staring off in that direction.
He got back up and swung away from the spot.
He arrived home several minutes later…
"Everything just keeps going wrong for me," said Peter unhappily.
At the Dillon residence…
"What have I done," said the boy.
He was looking at his dead parents. But he soon realized something, 'For something good something must be paid.'
He looked at his hands. They were dancing with light blue sparks. He had electrocuted his parents. They sizzled on the ground while he stared at his hands.
He ran out of the door, "I'm not taking it anymore!"
