"Peter my name is Charles Xaiv-"
"Yeah I know you were in my head."
"You may call me Professor."
"Could you just tell me what's wrong with me, I mean I put 2 kids in the hospital and shot fuckin' webs out if my hands."
"Peter!" Aunt May hissed.
"Sorry Aunt May."
It went quiet for a bit before the door opened it was of course Uncle Ben.
"Hey what's going on,I saw some cop cars outside." He said
"Your nephew is a well…..a mutant." Jean answered
"Oh well then, that's… pretty cool."
"I wish it was Uncle Ben,"
"Well why isn't it cool?"
"I put two kids in the hospital and brought a locker door home with me."
"Why exactly did you do that?"
"It was stuck to my hand."
"Mr. Parker we just want to help your nephew control his powers." The Professor said
"I don't want to learn how to control my powers, I want them gone!" I shouted, I was scared beyond belief. I wanted to curl up in a ball and cry like a child, I just wanted it all to end, I wanted to open my eyes and just have it all be a dream.
"Listen Peter these people want to help you so you can do good with your powers."
"I don't want to do good, I just want to be normal!"
"Peter, I don't believe that you've always wanted to help others and with these gifts you can, Peter in the end it's up to you but I want to you to listen to me alright I want you to take these words to heart."
"Alright lay it on me."
"With great power comes great responsibility. Listen Pete you are a lot like your father. You really are, Peter, and that's a good thing. But your father by a philosophy, a principle, really. He believed that if you could do good things for other people, you had a moral obligation to do those things! That's what's at stake here. Not choice. Responsibility."
"That's great and all but why me? Huh. Why me? Why was I chosen for these 'gifts' that I didn't even want?!" My tears began to overtake me. I was even more scared than I ever was in my entire life (and I've seen the star wars holiday special).
"Peter you need to calm down." Uncle Ben reasoned
"So I'm like my father? Yeah you said I was so I think I'll be just like him and just fuck off, You know just like he did!" I ran as fast as I could I just wanted to get out of there, Uncle Ben and Aunt May were shouting for me, They were probably just as scared as I was the Boy they raised now had super powers and was running away he might never return in their mind.
"One Mtn Dew and one bag of cheetos, Is that it?" The clerk asked
"Yeah that's it."
"That'll be 4.50." I pulled out 4.48 and put it on the counter and waited for him to count it up.
"You're two cents short." I went to take a penny from the penny holding thingy.
"Hey you can't do that. You have to spend at least 10$ before you can take a penny."
"Come on man it's two cents it's not that much."
"Well that's store policy asshole, now could you hurry up you're holding up the line."
"Fine, whatever." I said as I took my money off the counter. I was around halfway down the block before I heard the clerk shouting.
"Hey stop him!" he shouted at me as the guy who was standing behind me ran past me.
"Sorry not my policy!" I shouted back. I began to walk off again, It was cold night too cold for september 'Why is it so cold, I should've stayed Aunt May is probably worried sick' I was lost in thought, I began to trail off before I heard a gunshot I turned my head and saw Uncle Ben lying on the ground bleeding.
"Uncle Ben!" I ran as fast as I could to get to him maybe I could save him, maybe we can look past this.
"Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben oh god oh god oh god,"
"P-Peter." Uncle Ben coughed out barely holding on to life
"Somebody call an ambulance!" I shouted at the top of my lungs. I looked down at Uncle Ben he was about to say the words that would change my life,he pulled my down and whispered in my ear.
"With great power there must also come great responsibility, Peter remember that."
"Hold on Uncle Ben please hold on please!" I cried
"Peter, Take care of your Aunt." I held his hand as he took his final breath and became limp.
"NO! Uncle Ben please, please, please don't go, please…."
