I DON'T OWN SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN OR STOKED.

"Good to see you're afraid. As you should be." Norman Osborn said as he rose over a building. He pressed a button on his wrist and two lanterns were thrusted into his hands. The villain threw the explosives at the hero. Spider-Man preformed a mid-air flip and shot out a web line. He started swinging away, followed by the Goblin.

"This-This is impossible! I saw you crash into all those lanterns." Peter yelled, mostly to convince himself while trying to shake himself out of his nightmare.

"And you thought I didn't have it planned. Did you think I was satisfied with control over New York when I could control everything?" Osborn said as he closed the distance between him and the retreating teen. "I knew I would need more allies, but they were too cowardly to follow someone who was being hunted by Spider-Man. I could've killed you, but decided that was a pleasure that would be better suited after you saw what you couldn't stop." Goblin aimed a laser at Spider-Man's web and made the teen enter a free fall. Peter was about to shoot another line, but was blasted and landed on a neighboring rooftop, HARD. He looked down to see that his friends were getting close. Seeing his girlfriend, Peter recalled all the damage Norman Osborn had caused. He was now ready to dismantle Goblin. But even with everything red, he knew his friends could be caught in the crossfire.

"Run!" Peter yelled.

"Friends of yours? Too bad for them." Goblin said before throwing another lantern at them.

"No!" Peter yelled as he jumped after the explosive. The web caught the lantern in time to pull it away from them. He was going to sling it back at the goblin, but it exploded when it reached his stomach. The force sent the hero into the opposite building then into the ground.

"Now that's gotta hurt. But not as much this." The Goblin sent more lanterns flying at the group. Peter shot two webs at the buildings on either side of his friends and jumped at them.

"Dad?! Your alive?" Harry yelled. Instead of responding, Goblin threw more lanterns at Spider-Man and subsequently, the group.

Peter turned to Fin and said, "Get them out of here, Miss."

For a split-second each grom was confused of their friend saying Miss instead of calling her by her name, then they realized his New York friends didn't know how close they were to Spider-Man. "No, we can't let Spider-Man hurt him. He's my Dad."

"Your Dad made you think he was dead and is currently fighting a super HERO. No offense, but you have a horrible Dad." Fin said.

"No, he's sick." Almost as if by Fin's cue, a stray goblin rang flew through the air and nearly tore Harry's ear from his skull. The group followed Spider-Man's advice and ran, none seeing Harry rip the weapon from the wall. By the time they got to the edge of the street, a green energy field was stranding them inside with the fight.

At the center of the town, Peter saw the field while he was dodging all the attacks, trying to find an open spot for a counter-attack. "What's up with the force field gobby?" Spider-Man asked, jumping off a building to dodge another lantern.

"Just to make sure you don't try running away." Norman said.

"Hey! You're the guy who faked his own Death." Peter responded while running up the wall to the roof.

"There's a difference between a strategic fallback and running away." Goblin said, not noticing the web Spider-Man shot at the rooftop lightning rod and spun until he kicked the villain. The spider-themed hero landed on the vehicle and followed up with several punches, all of which Goblin deflected. Peter dropped down to preform a sweep kick that knocked the Osborn down, then to the side as Parker kicked his nemesis in the side. He followed his enemy off the glider and was using his webs to keep him close enough to continue the onslaught of fists to Osborn's covered face and gut. They were getting close to the ground, Peter's cue to bail. He was about to use the villain as a springboard back to the building, but felt a iron tight grip his leg. "Let's see what's softer, Canadian or American concrete." Goblin said, using his grip to throw the teen into the ground.

'Its a tie.' Peter thought to himself as he forced himself onto his feet. He looked around for the now missing Super Villain. A second later, Parker's spider sense went off. Peter jumped in the air to avoid the danger, only to be tackled by the formerly thought dead enemy. The goblin had the teen in a bear hug and was squeezing the life out of Peter. Spider-Man tried blinding Goblin by shooting webs over Osborn's eyes.

"That trick is tired, don't you have anything else up your sleeves?" Goblin smirked.

'Sure, but you have to be blind for it to work.' Peter thought before he shot webs at the neighboring buildings that were coming fast. He then shot those webs into the glider. The vehicle stopped, but the combatants didn't. They were falling fast and Parker took full advantage of his agility and webs to sling them both into a building. Parker webbed his nemesis up and thought he finally won, but the elder Osborn had different ideas. The Goblin pressed a button hidden on his wrist that sent out a green shockwave, blasting apart his bindings and throwing the teen before he could respond to his spider sense. Before Peter could correct his position, the Goblin grabbed his left leg. Peter yelled in pain as the villain broke his leg. Spider-Man lashed out with his other leg to Norman's face and started swinging away, gritting his teeth to prevent himself from screaming from the strain of staying at his altitude. Unfortunately for him, the pain had slowed him enough for the villain to grab the hair exposed by the shockwave. Peter was thrown through the air and landed on his side. He had to force himself not to pass out from the pain when his leg hit the ground. Soon his friends were getting closer. Peter forced himself on his hands to tell them to get to safety, but the pain had slowed Peter enough to allow Fin to get to him.

She turned him away from the others and said, "Your mask's missing." She told him. Peter put his hand to his face and found out she was telling the truth. "We have to get you out of here."

"Bring that murderous bug back!" Harry yelled as he closed the distance between them. He pulled the teen away from his support. With his leg as hurt as it was, he couldn't help but fall down.

"Peter?!" Gwen and Harry yelled as they saw the super hero of New York City was none other than their friend. "Why didn't you ever tell us?"

A loud cackle rang through the sky, postponing the awkwardness and anger Peter KNEW would come later. "Is anyone else getting a serious case of déjà vu?" Goblin said as he descended from the sky on his glider, twirling the red mask in his hand. Peter forced himself to his one good leg in preparation to join the Goblin in the air. But before he could, Norman launched a pellet at the teen. Peter was too weak from the injuries to move and was encased in a green material, leaving only his neck up visible. "This should make sure that you don't worsen my headache anymore." Goblin said, pressing a different button that produced a gun under the glider, one that sprayed Peter's mouth in the same green material as his body. He then shot energy blasts at the groms and Gwen, sending them away from the superhero. The blasted teens got up in time to see Norman Osborn press a button on his gauntlet and the field surrounding the town had now disappeared while a smaller one surrounded the Osborn's and Peter. They all ran at the field and started pounding on the translucent field while yelling for their mutual friend's safety.

"This is your chance Harry, prove that you have finally become a man." Norman said, giving his son a blade from his glider. Harry looked at the guy who was willing to kill his dad.

Peter's life flashed in front of his eyes and all he could regret would be that MJ and Aunt May would discover he was Spider-Man when someone would tell them how he had been killed. 'Talk about ironic,' Peter thought, 'Getting killed by a dead man. I'd probably laugh if I wasn't about to die.

Harry felt strangely numb as he was walking to kill the guy that made him think he lost his dad. How convenient it was for him that the Bug was also the guy who showed him up in school and caused more trouble then anyone else. The teen Osborn raised his hands over his head, ready to strike, when he remembered the way they used to hang out before things got awkward, how it was he and Gwen that got him through tough spot while his own father had only told him to, "Man up" and set him up to look like the goblin. He let his hands drop to his side. "Pathetic!" Norman spat out, snatching the blade out of the teens hand. "I don't know what it'll take to make you man up." Goblin got off his glider and took the position his son had been.

'I got an idea.' Harry thought, reaching for the blade he hid in his back pocket. He launched at his father and lodged it into his shoulder blade. Norman fell and looked at his son. Harry looked down to see the life already leaving his dad and Harry started pressing the buttons, ignoring what had just happened. One button lowered the field that was separating him from the others while another launched more lanterns into the empty air where the pilot was supposed to be. Harry picked up one lantern and activated it. A few seconds later, the lantern sent Peter flying back. Fin was helping Peter stand with the broken leg while Harry gave his friend the mask, which still had enough to hide his identity. The sounds of sirens blaring broke everyone from their trances and Harry squatted down. "What did I do?" Harry yelled at himself, the events finally starting to get to him. Peter signaled Fin to help him to the lifeless body.

"What are you doing?" Fin asked when she saw Peter pull out the small blade.

"Making sure Harry doesn't have to go to jail." Peter got down and with some difficulty, finally pried a man hole open.

"Even after I nearly.." Harry's voice gave up on him before he could finish the sentence, but Peter didn't need him to finish.

"But you didn't. And you were being compelled to hurt me, but you ended up saving me." Peter comforted his friend. The sirens were getting too close and Peter forced himself away from his support. "I have to get my stuff, then I'll meet you at the hotel." Peter said.

-.-. House.-.-.-

"So you're Spider-Man?" Harry asked after Peter got done recounting how he got his powers and some of his adventures.

"Yeah."

"That actually explains so much." Gwen said. "Don't worry, we won't tell anyone."

"I believe that. Not even Aunt May or Mary Jane, they deserve to hear it from me." They all sat in the staff house in awkward silence when Broseph suggested the groms and the other Americans get to know each other via a surf sesh. "How do you two feel about guarding another secret?" Peter asked, the other groms immediately understanding what he was saying and all shared amused smiles.

"Another secret?" Harry asked exasperated.

"A hundred bucks says you two enjoy this one." Peter said before he got on his crutches and lead the guests through the woods onto a beach that, despite its beauty, was remarkably empty.

Harry handed Peter his wallet and told him to help himself. Peter walked to the side to slump against a tree and watched as most of his friends were taking to the water. He knew that even though his leg would heal quicker than normal peoples, he would still be forced off a board for a while. He looked to his side to see Fin take a place next to him. "I think I may have a concussion and starting to hallucinate. Fin McCloud is choosing to sit in the office instead of shredding the waves." Peter joked.

"A girl tries to sit with her boyfriend and he makes jokes. That danger sense of yours has finally gone out." She said, playfully hitting his shoulder.

"Okay, truce?"

"Truce" Fin responded.

Peter looked at his friends all enjoying the sun and water, no secret that would make him lie so he could run to risk his life to save others. "Never thought I would get to be like this." Peter said. Fin knew that he was enjoying his quiet time and was trying to figure out how to continue. He saw her turn away and asked, "Something up?"

"With the criminal mastermind...out of the way. Do you think you'll have any super baddies after you?"

"As long as Spider-Man is alive the villains will be coming after me."

"Then why don't you stop? You've already help countless people."

"I can't tell you how many times I've had those exact same thoughts, but then innocent people would have to live in fear of those villains."

Fin sighed before saying, "With Great Power,"

"Comes Great Responsibility." Peter finished.
