Chapter 3: A new life part 2

Swinging through the night air of NYC Spider-Man had a lot to think about on his way home, despite that there was minor to no injury tonight when he got home things were different. At home Aunt May tried to hide from him a claim from the bank. He secretly spied on the elderly woman one day when she was in the kitchen and read that they were going to lose the house within the month.

Peter already knew that all the money he had was gone from the T.V shows he did and that his boss only gave him enough money to get by with food the table.

'Oh JJ how I hate thee for being a cheapskate.'

He sighed as he landed on a nearby building watching over the busy city of New York, he placed his hands on hips as he stood on the edge of the building he was on, he looked left and he looked right, "They look like insects from here…"

Spider-sense flared as feminine voice was heard off in the distant "In a way they are, at least compared to us."

He quickly turned his head hands ready, "Take one more step and it a load of webbing sticking you in place."

A growl was heard as two beings revealed themselves in front of Spider-Man, one was tall muscular wearing a long grey jacket but what he had on surprised the web-head. He had some sort of jumpsuit the colors being black and brown with padding that was same color on the collarbone crossing to the shoulders with brown padding going from inside the black padding to the wrist.

The man had a black leather pants with legging that was also brown with boots that was also brown.

'Sheesh what's with all the brown?' Spider-Man thought, he noted that man had amber eyes with long blonde hair going a little over the shoulder blade, "What did your husband give that to you or something? That is the most awful costume that I ever seen in my life."

The blonde haired man growled and was about to pounce on him but was held back by his partner, now Spider-Man put a hand to his chin as he looked at the blue skin older woman. Her form was bright blue skin, red hair cut to her shoulders, extending slightly in the back, and pale yellow eyes with black pupils. She had a triangle shaped gem on top of her forehead. She wears a sleeveless white dress with a high neck, thigh high white boots, and white gloves that reached nearly to her shoulders without covering her fingers.

Peter was glad he had a mask because the face he was giving the woman was an awkward look of abnormality because of her look.

"And your guys are who now?" he asked

"My name is Mystique and this is Sabretooth." The man pounded his chest proudly and roared into the night sky Peter was not impressed, "I work for a man who I think you'll like to meet. He feels that those with power should use it. We are different yes and we're better than those who fear us and persecute us something they do not understand." She said pointing at the streets below.

Peter had a feeling that he was not going like where this conversation was headed, however his neighbor felt quite the opposite, 'Yyyeessss, she is right. The people fear at what they don't understand, look at the people you have sworn to protect some praise you for your deeds but there are others who despise you and fear at what you do.'

She extended her hand to him as she stated to him, "Come with me and I can offer you a place where there are others like you, others with powers and who feel the same as you do."

Peter was in a long debate with himself but then some other voice was heard, 'Remember Peter, with great power, there comes great responsibilities…'

With these words in mind he looked at the two beings in front of him, "Let me guess you guys are mutants…"

"That's right bud same as you. Now are you going to take the offer or not or do I have to get physical on ya." Sabretooth growled cracking his knuckle

Peter took that as a challenge but he wanted to know one thing if these mutants were friendly or hostile, "Let me tell you something that I told your friend Charles Xavier, but I put it to him nicely. I work alone and I don't need you to tell me what's best for me or not and second all I'm not a mutant nor am I a human. And I have a responsibility to those are lesser than and I put others needs before I put mine on the line."

Peter looked at their faces; their faces were one filled with pure rage and disgust as he mentioned Charles Xavier, the blue-skinned woman called Mystique opened her mouth, "We have no relation with that human loving reject!"

"That's all I wanted to know." Spider-Man said, "So my response to your offer is no."

Sabretooth growled, "Wrong answer!"

He leapt into the air hoping to catch the web-slinger but Spider-Man proved to be faster leaping higher than the wolf mutant unto nearby water tank canister.

"Hey fur-ball you got to do better than that!" He taunted. Sabretooth growled in anger leaping where Spider-Man was and something unusual happened as Spider-Man was soaring through the air on a line. Sabretooth reacted a little too late when he figured out that line was webbing and that Spider-Man spun a second line to him and planted his foot on him and kicked flipped in midair, then slammed him on the ground then rode him like a skate board towards a wall where Spider-Man unleashed a powerful jaw breaking punch to his face and knockout punch to the stomach.

Sabretooth slumped to the ground unconscious, Mystique was frighten at the power Spider-Man demonstrated but she knew that Sabretooth would heal however the question was how long would it take before the Spider took her out.

She got into a fighting stance ready to take on the wall crawler.

"Lady you have no idea who you're up against…" He said darkly

"I'll take my chances." She said, and then suddenly a shadow was upon the Web-slinger, she smirked she knew it was Sabretooth. The next thing she had not anticipated Spider-Man turned nearly at the last minute punched Sabretooth square in the face sending him flying across the building edge.

'How did he know?! Sabretooth is maybe a brute when he wants to but there is no way he could have known that he was upon him!'

Mystique gritted her teeth charged at Spider-Man unleashing flurries of punches and kicks to the web that he dodged effortlessly despite having his back turned to the female mutant. He vaulted over the female mutant kicking her on the back sending her staggering forward.

"You guys are such nuisance, you know that. I said I work alone what part of that doesn't sit well with you…or is it you want me in club so badly that you're willing to go as to knock me out to force to join which is not going to happen." He said

Mystique and Sabretooth could not understand it a boy that was in front of them is making them look first fighters. They were panting hard, well Mystique was anyway and while Sabretooth was snarling at the Spider.

"At what point of this mission did we lose control?" Asked Sabretooth

"I don't know but whatever he is doing he seems to be one step ahead of us as if he knows what is going to happen before we can ever make it." The blue skinned mutant than thought of an idea, "Circle him he cannot out maneuver us both while at opposite sides of him."

They got up and did what they plan to do Spider-Man ready himself, he knew what was coming next.

"Ah yes the old circle and pounce this trick never gets old…"

He smirked, 'Imbeciles…'

Once they circled him twice, they were in front and behind him, Mystique cried out, "NOW!" Both mutants charged, Spider-Man calmly waited for his oppressors to come at him a tad closer, they were now 20ft. away…

10 feet away from him…

5 feet and they lounged at him with full force everything was in slow motion for Peter, his heart racing, adrenaline pumping from this fight if that's what anyone wants to call at least, Peter thought to himself, 'This is going to be close…'

He quickly got down then leapt 30 feet into the air high enough above his oppressors, who looked at him in bewilderment, then when they directed their attention to each other one thought came to their minds, 'I hate this guy…'

The crashed into each other hugging each other for they tried to catch him like this, and Peter saw his chance quickly he spun his web on Sabretooth zipping towards them quickly. Once he reached them, as any spider would do to prey he quickly crawled all over them mummified them from the torso down encasing them quickly in webbing.

He let them thump on the floor of the rooftop struggling against the webbing to no avail. He chuckled at them which infuriated it them more than ever. He grabbed them by the end of the cocoon and hung them underneath the water tank.

"Listen to me you little brat! You're going to regret this night, you hear! You're going to re-Mmph!"

"Would you just shut up already?" Spider-Man said earning him a glare from the blue skin woman he paid no mind this woman, "I got a message for your boss, if he wants to find me he can look for me himself instead of sending in his lackeys to do the job. So goodnight, farewell, and I'll catch you guys on the flipside."

Before he left he webbed Sabretooth mouth in case he alerted anyone, which was unlikely since they were so up on the building. He let a chuckle as the male mutant let out a muffled growl he ran to the edge disappearing from their view.

Mystique let a groan she knew was going to get an earful from him and she knew was not going to like it, neither was Sabretooth, and then she saw a shadow of a sphere.

'Oh…no…' She was doomed and she knew it to


30 minutes later

Peter was glad he was jumping from car to car and hitching rides on the roof of cars, trucks, and buses to get home to the suburban part of Queens. Sometimes having spider-powers was a blessing and sometimes he cursed his newfound powers however tonight he had to be thankful for them because it was 11:50 pm. He knew it was late so trying to back to the Bugle would be futile since he was rescuing people from exploding buildings as well he ran into two more mutants but the strange part of all when he mentioned Charles Xavier they were disgusted with the name.

But something was bugging him as he swung in his neighborhood in Forest Hills, that blue skinned woman had a point, people fear at what they don't understand and if Aunt May found out that he had super powers…well she would probably have a heart attack. Which is something that he wants to avoid at all cost but if worst comes to worst though that a different story or if he was forced to reveal his secret identity he would tell her.

When he swung over, he did not notice three black Mercedes Benz pass under leaving his house. He wall crawled up the side of the house after checking that no one was watching and snuck through the window. His costume quickly changed from black suit to black t-shirt with a grey long sleeve, with blue jeans and finally socks and sneakers.

He stretched out his sore muscles from upper body to lower body and his legs from patrolling all night and thank goodness that today was Friday the 20th of September or he would been grounded for sure. His room was dark so he couldn't see anything which led his foot crashing into a box.

"Ow! What in the world?"

A tendril shot from his wrist the lights turned on to reveal at least 40 boxes or more in his room stacked neatly on top of each other. He was bewildered and shocked to see so many boxes what was going here?

"Aunt May!" He managed his way to the door and when he opened it there stood his Aunt with an empty box in her hand

"Yes dear?"

He turned pointing to the boxes on the floor, "What is all this stuff, what's going on?"

"Peter we're moving in two days."

"WHAT!"


Meanwhile at Bayville train subway station

Professor Xavier and Ororo were at the subway station after cleaning up an incident that had happened Bayville High School apparently. Scott's glasses were knocked away from him after he tried to save someone and he fired his optic blast accidently that caused a fire to erupt and give the star football Duncan a concussion in the process even though he did wear his gear. Luckily, the local Bayville Fire Department managed to keep the fire under control.

If the Professor had not come along, some might have suspected mutant activity which he handled by wiping their minds away from that suspicion. Now he went to the subway to pick up a young mutant by the name of…

"Is that Kurt?" asked Ororo looking at a young man with an orange shirt and jeans with luggage on him. She was wearing makeup as well a white blouse and a purplish-pink dress and sandals.

"No it is not." He spotted a hooded figure covered from head-to-toe coming from the train, "This is…"
