Earth-1 Spider-Man
Origins: Part 4 Of 5
When Peter went inside his house, the first thing he saw were police officers questioning Aunt May.
"Alright," said one of the police officers, "Thank you for your time." The officers then headed towards the front door, but Peter stopped them.
"What happened?" he asked, already aware of the reason they're here.
"This man is wanted for manslaughter." said a police officer as he handed Peter a picture of a man. Then, the police officers made their way out the door as Peter inspected the picture. It was the same man in the corner store he was just in. This has gotten personal.
At his house, Norton G. Fester decided what to do now that he lost his job.
"It seems that the idea of people with superhuman abilities offends the general public," he said to himself, "Well, looks like the time of the homo sapiens is at an end." He went over to his closet and pulled out a white and black costume.
Peter went through his sketchbook of potential costumes and chose one that interest him the most. He went to work on the costume using his aunt's sewing machine. Thank you sewing classes.
He put on the mask at a rooftop, ran, and jumped off the roof. He gained speed while he figured out a way to not splat at the bottom. He flicked his wrists and webs came out of his palm, sticking to a street post. He swung and flicked his other wrist that shot a web at another street post.
At Times Square, the police are at work, searching for the killer of Ben Parker.
"This just in," said the on the giant screen,"we have a new lead in the Ben Parker story. An anonymous source has confirmed that Ben's killer is out in Pier 17."
"Thanks, television," said Peter as he crawled the top of a building in Times Square and shot a web, heading towards the killer's location.
The costumed Peter Parker went to Pier 17 to see if the news was true about the man that killed Uncle Ben. In the pier, a man in a black mask smoked a cigarette. Peter assumed that this was Uncle Ben's killer.
"Hey you," said Peter as loud as he possibly could, "you with the black mask. You killed my uncle." The whole area went silent and turned toward the alleged killer.
"Me?" the masked man said, "I didn't kill anyone." Peter shot a web at the man and dragged him through the area. People screams were heard as Peter left the pier with the masked man.
"Where are you taking me?" said the masked man, who panicked at the thought of being dropped at this height.
"You'll see," the only words that came out of his kidnapper's mouth. Peter looked around and saw that he was chased by police cars on the ground and police copters in the air.
Damn social media, thought Peter as he decided where to take his uncle's alleged murderer. He turned a corner and landed on the rooftop of a warehouse, the masked man came down with him. The man lost his balance and almost fell off the roof. Peter shot a web and dragged him through the roof. Peter held the man by the neck as police officers surrounded the warehouse.
"Attention Metahuman," said Willis, a police officer, through his mega phone, "drop the man and turn yourself in."
"Or what?" said Peter to the officers.
"Or we will be forced to shoot you." Peter took this time think about his actions. Did he really want avenge his Uncle Ben by taking away another man's life? Maybe this man has a family? Who loved him as much as Uncle Ben and Aunt May loved me. In the end, he threw the man into the cop cars, making a web net before he had a chance to die. The police went to work to pull him down, Peter took this time to leave.
In school, the students were getting stuff out of their lockers in preparation for their first class of the day. Peter was of these students.
"Did you hear about this 'Spider-Man'?" asked Harry as he pulled out books from the locker next to Peter's.
"Who?"
"This guy dressed in red and blue spandex who cruised through Time Square yesterday."
Shit. The media must be on to me. This answer decides whether or not I get taken to jail for the rest of my life.
"Where were Earth's Mightiest Heroes when you needed them?" Great save.
"Fighting Annhilus in the Negative Zone." the bell rang, which the classes of the day. In Peter's science class, a discussion was held on the class trip to the Hall of Science.
"Class," asked Mr. Warren, "what did you learn about during this trip?"
Flash raised his hand. "That Tony Stark single-handily screwed Oscorp."
"Besides that"- Peter raised his hand- "yes Mr. Parker?"
"That the experiment was incomplete."
"How so?"
"One of the genetically-modified animals was nowhere to be seen."
"Good job, Mr. Parker. You can learn a lot from him Mr. Thompson" Flash scowled at that thought.
"Way to go, Parker," Harry said, "I'd never thought you'd be the one to diss Osborn."
"Flash had my work cut out for me."
"Please, he always disses everyone." the bell rang and everyone got up from their seats and headed for the door. Peter was the last to leave the room.
In front of the entrance Midtown High School, Peter walked with Harry as they left school for the day. Harry spotted a white stretched Hummer limousine in front of the school. He immediately knew what it meant.
"I have to go," he said to Peter, "see you tomorrow" He opened the last door of the limousine and hopped on. He closed the door seconds before the Hummer left school grounds. Great, now I'm alone. a redheaded girl walked next to him.
