'This is a KRCR News Channel 7 Special Report.'

"Good afternoon, I'm Hannah Kessler with KRCR News Channel 7 we have breaking news to tell about. Local Public High School Bayville High has recently been target of an unknown terrorist attack, local Bayville authorities, Firefighters, SWAT and EMS personal arrived on scene to a smoking and ruined High School it is unknown what this lone terrorist wants but evacuation had started immediately after the building to the principal's office was blown to bits. Reports have been coming in about 2 dozen students, faculty and staff have been injured…"

At Parker Residents Aunt May dropped her cooking raced to the phone then to the living room turning up the volume immediately to TV, she was already panicking of her nephews safety as she dialed his phone number. She continued to listen to the breaking news praying to God that her nephew was safe.

"We have Morgan S. Kinzer on scene to tell us more about what is happening to, Morgan?"

The screen switches over to a young reporter in his mid-20, "Thank you Hannah as you can see in front of me SWAT and Police personal have geared up to take this terrorist out and make sure he down for the count and rescue any hostages if there is any as I was told by chief of police Jean DeWolff obviously we have no idea what this man is looking for or what his intention is but law enforcement have been ordered to take extreme measure as well…"

"HEY LOOK ITS SPIDER-MAN!" Someone shouted

"It appears Bayville's newest vigilante is on scene carrying two victims out of harms way paramedics are moving in and clearing them out."

The camera shifted to the wall-crawler as he carried in his arms two people one of them being Scott the other the principle of the school whom he handed over to be checked. Soon he took out a cell to check who was calling him at a time like this, his action showed he wasn't happy with whoever was calling him.


Telephone conversation

"Hello?"

"Peter, my gosh are you alright? I heard there is an attack at your school."

"I'm fine Aunt May I'm with others students, trying to help people get out."

Aunt May bit her lips, "Alright just make sure you are safe and get home safely, Peter please stay away from taking pictures of Spider-Man I am watching him right talking on a cell phone."

Silence

"Peter?"

"Umm…yeah…"

"Are you still there?"

"Yeah I'm still h…"

"THERE YOU ARE SPIDER!" Another voice boomed, "This is the end of the line for you once I drain you I will be one step closer to be accepted back to my family! Say you last words to your loved ones arachnid for you day has come!"

"Peter what's going on?"

"Aunt May I need to tell you something I am Spider-Man, I just wanted to let you know if anything happens to me I love you."

"Peter what are you talking about? How can you be Spider-Man?"

May heard him sigh heavily, then he told her to look at the TV very closely, the mask unveiled on its own to reveal a familiar face that the old woman knew to well. Never in all her life that she has been alive in her 60 years had she ever had to deal with this, he told a few friends will be coming to see her.


Daily Bugle

"Jonah!" Robbie flew into his room with a shocked face

"What the matter Robbie? You looked you've seen a ghost." Jameson joked

"Turn on the TV!" Robbie tuned in on Channel 7 the instant he did Jonah cigar left his mouth.


Midtown High school

The entire school class room was stunned silent, those who were in the classroom of Miles Warren were the following Gwen Stacy, Liz Allen, Flash Thompson and Harry Osborn were stunned silent.

The nerd they picked on was none other than their beloved hero of NYC battling a man with an energy staff the noted, they saw his lips moving as he talked to someone on his cell phone. The classroom seen his apologetic smile as he looked into the camera of the News.

"I-I can't believe it for a whole year the Amazing Spider-Man was…no…is teenager. Ladies and gentleman this day mark an historic event, raising questions like how did he get his powers? What was his motivation to don the costume? Are their others like him out there? I'm… I'm… I'm…stunned by this sudden revelation." The new reporter said

"No freaking way." Flash Thompson who had bullied Peter for the majority of his life could couldn't believe that puny Parker was his idol, "This is some sort of joke right? Somebody tell me this is a joke!"

Gwen was hyperventilating, the class had been watching a documentary on Cloning the Woolly Mammoth before this came on. She silently prayed that Peter would be safe, she whispered, 'Get him Peter…'

Harry was stunned, hurt and confused he thought Peter was his best friend and would tell him everything yet he hid this part of his life from him, it made him wonder what else he was hiding from him. He continued to stare at the

Miles had grin a sadistic grin on his face as he thought to himself, 'Yes he will make a perfect specimen for my little science project.' Then he remembered the conversation he eavesdropped on Gwen, 'Ms. Stacy knew who he was no wonder they were talking about 'How to turn a cell into a supercell.' Gwen knew the truth as well as the Watson girl. I must have his DNA!'


Bayville Hospital Six Hours later

Pain, she was in so much pain everywhere she felt it throbbing throughout her body like someone taking a jackhammer using it against her body, her head ached the pain throbs and pulses in her skull, not a sharp pain like a knife-inflicted wound, but more of a dull pounding with a hammer over...and over...and over again. Her brain feels like it's on overdrive, but at the same time can't process thoughts properly nor voices.

Angelica tiredly with great effort opened her eyes to see blurs in front of her, then she heard a voice in her head, 'Don't strain yourself.'

'Who…said…that?'

'I did Angelica Jones, I'll save the introduction for later.'

'W-who?'

'It doesn't matter just know I am here from a dying friends request, I suppressed the memory of what happened at Bayville, you are still recovering physically and emotionally, you are at a hospital. I will make contact with you again, know as well that I am healing you as we speak, I don't want to help you I want you to die. Yet I know it's not what he wanted.'

Then the voice was gone as it came, too tired to think about it Angelica closed her eyes drifted into a troubled slumber thinking about the voice said.

In another room with Scott stared at the ceiling, he didn't blink behind his shades all he could think is him. Why did he have to sacrifice himself? He only knew him a few days but why did he do it? Why not come out and tell them who he truly was?

A knock was at the door.

"Come in…"

The door opened to reveal Jean in a cast she was one of lucky ones to have minor injuries amongst the student body.

"Hey…" she said softly

"Hey…"

"How's your head?"

"Concussion, few broken ribs the usual, you?"

"A broken arm, aren't I lucky." Jean took note he didn't say anything; "Do you want to talk about it?'

"Not really."

"Scott it will make you feel better."

"I don't have a choice do I now?" He smirked lightly

"Nope"

They looked at the muted TV, the news had been repeating over and over again about Spider-Man and who was he? New material arisen and witnesses that have been saved by him were talking to news reporters, many took his death personally others were happy that he was gone those who were are the same ones who listened Daily Bulge Chief J. Jonah Jameson berate, belittle and uncredited Spider-Man for his noble actions in helping this city. Now he was the backlash of all the News channels and talk shows for talking so ill of NYC wall crawling hero.


X-Men Mansion

Xavier stared out the window of his balcony it was a sad day indeed the X-Men had lost a potential, a valuable ally, a student but most importantly they had lost a friend, each one of his students were taking the loss of Peter differently, Kitty had cried herself to sleep after finding out who he was, Kurt locked himself in his bedroom refusing to come out only to poof out thin air for food, Logan didn't know Peter well but he could tell that he was a good hearted kid, Ororo was sadden yes however the ones who truly suffered was his Aunt and Angelica. Angelica cried after he confessed that he was attracted to her and taking the stab to the heart for her, May Parker that poor woman cried, cried, cried her heart out, Ororo had to console and stayed with her until then.

He offered a place in the mansion for the time being, she couldn't be in the house they were in so he let her stay in one of the guest rooms.

"Hey Chuck…"

"Come in Logan…"

"How you holding up?"

"To tell you the truth old friend I am deeply sadden by today's turn of events, I've never thought to see the day where a madman would do such a horrible deed and to a youngster mind you."

"Yeah well a lot of kids are taking it pretty hard, web-head may been a hot head at times but that didn't mean he had to die like that as an animal." He walked over to edge of the balcony, "He would have made a fine X-Men."

"Hmm…"


The Brotherhood of Mutants

"You failed me yet again Mystique, not only was it the same person you tried to recruit for our cause you failed to bring me Katherine Pryde."

She swallowed dryly as the metal around her twirled in a figure 8 formation, "I would have succeeded had it not been for that man in the mask. He appeared out of nowhere and attacked us, had it not been for that boys quick reflexes I would have been dead! Second how the hell was I supposed to know that Peter Parker and Spider-Man were one in the same? I am not a telepath Magneto and Katherine Pryde was your doing." The metal objects swirled around her, "You had a deal with Emma once she trained her that she would have been hand delivered to you personally."

A knife was flown straight in between her eyes, the blue skinned woman could feel sweat coming off her brows as she saw the sharpened objects stop near her face.

"Never talk back to me again, I will forgive this for the last time Raven fail me again and I will end your life, do I make myself clear?"

"Crystal."

"Good." The metallic objects feel to the ground, the others came out of hiding

"Is it safe to move again, yo?"

"Shut it Tolansky!" Mystique whispered "One day Magneto you'll get what's coming to you."

Right now she had to check on Rogue, whether she wanted to admit or not she owed a debt to Mr. Parker, one for saving her life and the other saving her daughter's life. But since he was dead there was no reason why she would owe him anything it was not like the dead would rise again to could claim his favor.

The whole world knows who Spider-Man is and it was none other than a teenager no older than 15-17 years old but to those who know him personally he was Peter Parker. At this time that same boy was now dead waiting for his corpse to be laid to rest and join those who came before him.


LXD: I bet you didn't see that one coming did you know readers? In 22 chapters I killed off Peter Parker after three months of planning. I apologies for the delay but I had so much work for college that rendered me useless to write what I wanted to write and yes I was on break but I had to take some time off to get my head on straight and voila here I am. So leave me your thoughts, comments, rating, subscription. I will see you next chapter.
