"Hi, my name is Peter Parker, your Friendly Neighborhood... Oh, sorry, you already know who I am, old habits... anyway, let's start over... about couple months have passed since high school, now it's the beginning of my new life, I'm 18 years old and now an adult, a lot has changed..." Peter narrates his story.

(Army Ranger School)

Flash Thompson is 18 years old and about 6' 2" tall, he enlisted after high school and now is in the army ranger school in Georgia to be a ranger, he's wearing a green t shirt with brown pants running around with other cadets, climbing over the walls and crawling through the mud, sometime later, Flash is training with an instructor on Modern Army Combatives, Flash is getting bested as he's only a beginner and the drill sergeant is yelling out.

"My friend Flash turned down the football scholarship to ESU and has enlisted straight out of high school, now he's in the army, wanting to serve his country and help people, he's certain has grown up into a better person."

(City Hall)

The Elevator has arrived on the floor as J Jonah Jameson is stepping out accompanied by his new D.A. Blake Tower, his chief-of-staff, his secretary as many city hall employees are giving their welcome to the recently elected Mayor of New York City, Jameson finally entered the world of politics.

"As for Flattop, he's now mayor, yeah, that's right, Mayor J Jonah Jameson, can you believe it? Can't imagine how much the city will change under his leadership, I just hope he doesn't abuse his position for his personal vendetta against me, only time will time.

(Daily Bugle)

The Daily Bugle is now under the leadership of the new editor-in-chief, Robbie Robertson, who took over after Jameson was elected mayor, working there is Betty Brant starting out as a trainee reporter, she's still got a lot of experience to gain before becoming a full reporter, also working there as a secretary is her best friend Glory Grant. Betty is 18 years olds and still has the same short bob haircut like in high school and she's 5' 7", Glory is of the same age and still has her short afro hairstyle.

"The Bugle on the other hand has seen better days since Robbie took over after O'Flattop left for the political world, Betty is still there, only this time as a trainee reporter, she's still into journalism, it's in her DNA, and to a bigger surprise, Glory is also working there too as a secretary."

(Apartment)

"As for me, I'm starting my new life here with Gwen Stacy, the love of my life as we move into this new apartment together in the city, from here everything changes for us as we'll face them together."

The day is August 23rd, the time is 10:58 AM at a two bedroom apartment in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, coming into the apartment is Peter Parker, now 18 years old and grown up taller, he's now 5' 10" and has a mature and yet youthful look, still lean and muscular, still has his regular haircut and is more handsome than ever, also coming into the apartment is his beautiful girlfriend Gwen Stacy, also 18 years old and about 5' 7", she's developed quite a exquisite figure especially in other areas, her cup size grew to 32C, she got rid of her pink highlights and went back to being regular blond with her signature headband, Harry and Randy are coming into the apartment carrying a mini fridge as they're helping set up the apartment Peter and Gwen are sharing together.

"Where do you want this, Pete?" Harry holding the fridge.

Peter points to the kitchen. "Right there is fine."

Randy and Harry walked over to the kitchen and placed it where Peter wants it to be, after the mini fridge is placed, Harry and Randy are tied out from all the heavy lifting as they look around the apartment Peter and Gwen just rented for themselves, inside the bedroom is Miles with Ganke Lee and Anya Corazon as they're setting up the mattress on the frame, Miles has grown up a few inches these past two months, still 15 and he's now 5' 8" and has buzz hair, he's still a teenager and in high school, Anya is 5' 3" and has her hair loosen in a wavy hairstyle. Coming into the apartment are May with Mary Jane carrying some boxes, MJ is also 18 and like Gwen, she's develop quite an exquisite figure, she still has the same hairstyle like before, she's more beautiful than ever, she's 5' 8" and her chest size is 34D, Mary Jane and May finished setting down the boxes contain some of Peter and Gwen's stuff next to the large box containing a new 4K TV that hasn't been opened yet.

"Okay, these are the last boxes, all set." May said.

"Wow, this apartment is pretty nice." Mary Jane said.

"And cheap, it's the only one we can find that's available and the one that comes with a discount for college students, we just finished signing a lease" Peter said.

"Can you both afford it?" Mary Jane said.

"I still have a job working photography." Peter said.

"My dad left me a college fund for living expenses, so we're all good." Gwen said.

"Yeah... you're all good..." May is felling uneasy.

"What is it, Aunt May?" Peter asking.

"Nothing... just, can't believe you're finally in college, Peter, you're now 18 years old and finally an adult, you're all grown up." May is still processing this change.

"I know, to think it was just months ago I was still in high school and living with you, now I'm in college and moved into the city with my girlfriend." Peter said.

"I wouldn't have it any other way." Gwen said.

"I'm very proud of you, Peter, Ben and your parents would be proud too." May then hugs Peter.

"Thanks, Aunt May." Peter hugging his aunt.

May broke off and turns to Gwen. "Come here."

Gwen went up and hugs May. "Thank you for taking me in and giving a home."

"You'll always have a home, you're my family. Your father would've been so proud seeing his little girl all grown up into a fine young woman, now in college." May hugging Gwen.

"I know he would, I can feel it." Gwen smiled.

May broke off the hug and looks up Peter and Gwen. "Okay, promise me you'll both take care of each other, what happens from now on is now your responsibility."

"I will, Aunt May, I promise." Peter said.

"He'll be alright with me." Gwen looking upon Peter.

"Very well, this is where I say goodbye... enjoy your new lives together, good luck." May says her goodbye.

"Will do." Peter said.

"Bye." Gwen said.

May is leaving the apartment as Peter and Gwen has officially moved into the apartment, now they still have a lot of stuff to organize and put into place, like that 4K TV still inside the box yet to be open and assembled, they then look upon their friends who volunteered to help Peter and Gwen move in.

"Hey guys, seriously, thank you for making the time to help us move in." Peter saying to his friends.

"Of course, Pete, what are friends for." Harry said.

"So how's your place, Harry?" Peter asking.

"Oh, it's great, it's a very fancy place in Chelsea." Harry said.

"By very fancy, you mean very expensive, right? Guessing Daddy Warbucks helped out." Mary Jane referencing Norman Osborn.

"One of the perks of being the son of a billionaire and having a huge trust fund, we can afford anything. You would've loved it, Pete, too bad you turned down the offer to be roomies." Harry said.

"Don't complain, Harry, at least you'll have Randy to keep you company." Peter said.

"Hey, Randy is cool, but he ain't no Einstein, no offense." Harry told Randy.

"None taken, I only got into ESU thanks to my football scholarship, I just hope that I could make it in college not just on my athletic skills alone." Randy didn't felt offended.

"I know the feeling, I'm not quite the genius like Pete and Gwen are, but it's all cool, these two could use a place to themselves. Besides, we could use our place as a bachelor's pad and attract the hottest babes out there." Harry smiled.

"Oh, I'm down with that, life of the bachelor." Randy smiled.

Peter rolled his eyes and smiled. "You guys had to make it weird."

"Hey, don't need to feel jealous, Pete, especially since you're living with one of the hottest women in your life." Harry said.

"And I wouldn't have it any other way." Peter looking upon Gwen smiling, she smiled back.

"Well, as much as I like to stay and chat, I got a flight to catch." Harry said.

"Where are you going?" Randy asking.

"Europe, going to enjoy my last week of summer before my first semester of college begins." Harry said.

"Lucky you." Randy being sarcastic.

"Hey, just because I'm having fun, doesn't mean you guys can't." Harry said.

"True, but some of us aren't as rich as you, Ritchie Rich." Peter said.

Harry smiled as he though of something interesting. "I have an idea, why don't you guys use the house in the Hamptons for the weekend?"

"The Hamptons?" Gwen said.

"Yeah, it'll be fun, since I got the keys to the house, I'll lend you all the place for the weekend of fun by the beach." Harry said.

"Are you sure it's okay, Harry? Is your dad really okay with this?" Peter said.

"Of course, it's much my house as it is his, besides I don't think he'll mind you using it for the weekend since we'll be out of town for a while. Come on, Pete, don't turn down this chance for some real fun." Harry said.

"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go." Peter accepts.

"Great, here are the keys to the house, I'll let the housekeeper know that you'll be using it for the weekend, so you guys will have the place to yourselves." Harry hands Peter the house keys.

Peter took the keys. "Thanks Harry."

"Sure thing, I'm off, have fun." Harry puts on the sunglasses.

"Enjoy your vacation." Peter waves goodbyes.

"You too, Pete!" Harry left the apartment.

Peter looks to his friends. "I guess we're all going to the Hamptons tomorrow."

"Yeah, count me out, I still got some job hunting to do. So I guess you guys will have the place to yourselves, have fun." Randy said before leaving.

"Thanks for the help, Randy!" Peter said.

"Anytime, have fun!" Randy left the apartment.

Coming out one of the bedroom is Miles with Ganke and Anya after they're done with their work.

"Hey Pete, we're all finished setting up the mattress in one bedroom, the other bedroom is still empty with no bed." Miles said.

"Don't worry about that, Miles, we'll take care of it for another time, thank you, Miles, Ganke, for all your help, you too Anya." Peter said.

"Sure thing, anything for a friend of Miles." Anya said.

"Man, working on the mattress has made me hungry." Ganke Lee has his hand on his stomach.

"If you don't need us for anything else, Pete, we'll head out to grab a bite." Miles said.

"We're all good, you guys can go, enjoy yourselves." Peter told the group.

"Thanks, see ya!" Miles said.

"Bye Miles." Gwen waves goodbye.

Miles and Ganke are leaving the apartment as Anya took one last look at Peter and Gwen, she still has her suspicion about them since she already knew Miles is Kid Arachnid, she then leaves the apartment and joins up with Ganke and Miles as they're all going out to eat. Back in the apartment, Peter and Gwen are unpacking their boxes and started to put some clothes in the closet, Peter pulled out the upgraded Spider-Man suit 2.0 built for his new physique. Gwen and Mary Jane are still shocked he's still wearing it since it's out of style.

"Can't believe you're still wearing that suit, Tiger?" Mary Jane said.

Peter looks confused. "What's wrong with it?"

"Nothing, just that it's the same design you wore for years, don't you think it's time to get a new one?" Mary Jane said.

"MJ is right, it's great and all, but it couldn't hurt to improve your design to fit your new appearance. This could be your chance to get a new suit for yourself. Even your Avengers friends made updates to their suits, so why not you?" Gwen said.

Peter smiled and sighed. "Okay, I guess you both make a good point. Alright, I'll get a new suit, I happen to know someone who specializes in designing suits, it's time to cash in on that favor."

"Well, since you're both somewhat set up here, I should get going, I got some apartment hunting to do, plus some job hunting." Mary Jane said.

"Job hunting?" Peter is surprised.

"Yeah... Juilliard turned down financial aid for me, so I won't be taking acting classes anytime soon." Mary Jane confessed.

Peter is surprised just like Gwen. "I'm sorry, MJ, we didn't know."

"Why didn't you tell us?" Gwen said.

"Didn't want to add my problems to your list of worries, don't feel bad for me, I'll figure something out, I'm still pursuing my career in acting, that's my goal." Mary Jane said.

"Of course, once Mary Jane set her sights on something, she's determined to see it through to the end." Peter smiled.

Mary Jane smiled "You know me too well, Tiger. Guess you guys will have to go to the Hamptons without me, I'll stay behind looking for a job somewhere."

"In that case, why don't you use our apartment for the weekend while Pete and I are out of town?" Gwen suggested.

"Really? Sure, if that's okay with you guys?" Mary Jane said.

"Of course, MJ, it's only for the weekend, that way you'll be in the city job hunting more often." Peter said.

"Thanks, Tiger, you're the best. I keep this place tight and clean until you return." Mary Jane said.

"Appreciate it, now if you ladies don't need me, I'm off." Peter said.

"Where are you going?" Gwen said.

"Stop by the shelter to check up on May, then I'll go see someone about a new suit. I'll see you later." Peter waves to Gwen.

"Bye, Pete." Gwen waves to Peter.

Peter left the apartment leaving Mary Jane and Gwen alone to chat, he's off to F.E.A.S.T that nearby the neighborhood he's living in now with his girlfriend.


Later around 11:24 AM in Greenwich Village at Joe's Pizza, Miles, Ganke, and Anya are hanging out waiting as a waiter came by and lays a tray dish of pizza in the middle of the table as he says "Enjoy!", all three each grab a slice and started to chow down on their food as they worked up an appetite after a day of helping Peter and Gwen set up their new apartment.

Ganke Lee chewing his mouth. "Mmm, this is some fine pizza, baked right out of the oven."

"After a day of hard work, we deserve a decent meal." Miles then turns to Anya. "By the way, is it true what we've heard? That you're moved into the city?"

"My dad is, he found a decent place for us in Washington Heights, but don't worry, I'm still going to Brooklyn Visions Academy for our sophomore year, my dad doesn't want to deny me of great education." Anya explained.

"Father of the year." Ganke Lee said.

"And your mother?" Miles said that word made Anya feel uneasy. "In all our time we've known each other, you never talked about her."

"It's..." Anya is holding back.

"If you don't want to talk about it, then..." Miles said.

"Don't worry, Miles... my mother died when I was like, 6, I hardly remember her and how it happened." Anya feeling sad.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." Miles felt bad.

"It's okay... I'm used to it." Anya still sad.

Miles sighed. "Just talking about this brings me back to my Uncle Aaron, who just died months ago."

"You still miss him, don't you?" Anya said.

"Everyday, I know that he wasn't perfect, that he was a supervillain, but..." Miles said.

"He was still your uncle... I get it, it's okay to love them despite their flaws, and he loved you too." Anya said.

"Thanks... for being there for me. You're a true friend, Anya." Miles smiled as he felt better.

Anya smiled as she felt lucky to known Miles Morales, last year he was an odd kid having a hard time fitting into school, but now she sees him differently, she knows what kind of life he lives by, the life of a hero, Anya still hasn't told him that she knows the truth about him being Kid Arachnid out of respect, she doesn't know for how long can she keep this secret to herself, hopefully one day she'll tell Miles the truth, but for somethings are best left unsaid, she got back to enjoying lunch with her friends.


At the same time in Chinatown, at the shelter called F.E.A.S.T., May is still running the place as it has improved so much lot with the new funding they've gotten months ago courtesy of Spider-Man attending the fundraiser, they have new equipment and more staff available to help the homeless improve on their living situations, May is with Rio feeding wheatcakes as Peter came into the building, May smiled and waved as she spotted her nephew.

"Rio, take over." May stopped her work.

May walks away as Rio is left behind to feed wheatcakes, May came up and hugs her nephew.

"What are you doing here? I thought you're still setting up the apartment." May said.

"Still am, but I got somethings to take care." Peter said.

"Such as?" May is curious.

"I'm heading into Jersey City to see a friend about a new suit." Peter said.

"And by suit you mean?" May said.

"Yes, that suit." Peter is talking about the Spider-Man suit.

"Oh, okay, and what else?" May said.

"Well, me and Gwen are planning a trip to the Hamptons for the weekend." Peter said.

"The Hamptons?" May is surprised.

"Yeah, Harry is going to lend us the house for the weekend while he and his dad are out of town, and to be honest we could use a decent vacation for ourselves, it's been a long time since we had some fun." Peter said.

"That's nice, so how are you both planning to get there? It's about a two hour drive from Queens." May said.

"Well, maybe we'll rent a car or take a train." Peter said.

"Nonsense..." May then smiled as she thought of something interesting. "Actually, I might have just the thing for you, come with me."

"Where are we going?" Peter is curious.

"To get your new ride." May smiled as she leads the way.


Later around 12:02 PM at the Parker Residence in Queens, Peter and May are back home after he just moved out to live with his girlfriend in the city, they're standing in the driveway in front of the garage door as Peter is opening up, there used to be a dune buggy here his uncle worked on while he was alive until Peter moved it to his Spider-Cave, he's more curious as to what kind of ride Aunt May has in mind for him.

"So what are we doing here, Aunt May?" Peter is curious.

May smiled. "You need your own set of wheels to get around, Peter, your uncle would've wanted you to have this when you're old enough, I believe that time is now."

May walked inside to where the covers are concealing something thin and small, she smiled upon it as she puts her hands on the covers and pulled it away, Peter gazed upon a red 1991 Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 motorcycle customized with a back seat along with a back rest and saddlebags on each side, he knew that it once belonged to his Uncle Ben.

Peter eyes widened. "Whoa, is that..."

"It's Ben's bike, his Harley-Davidson Sportster he's had for 30 years, now it's your." May gifted Peter a motorcycle.

Peter walked closer for a better look. "Whoa, he must've loved riding this bad boy."

"He sure did... and so did I." May remembers those times.

May went to the trunk nearby and picked up a photo from inside it, she gave it to Peter as he looked upon his Uncle Ben when he was around his mid twenties wearing black leather, he was quite the bad boy in the day, he's standing next to the bike along with a beautiful strawberry blonde woman who look surprising familiar as Peter look upon his aunt and figured it out.

"Was that you?" Peter is stunned and surprised.

May smiled. "Yeah, that was me, I was quite a looker in those days, a lot of guys would try to win my affection, but it was Ben who won my heart at the end."

"You both looked so happy together in the picture." Peter looks at the photo.

"We had so many memories of this bike, your uncle and me would often do something stupid and dangerous, but we were happy nevertheless, now this is your moment to make some good memories for yourself and for Gwen." May said.

Peter smiled. "Gwen is everything to me, she's the love of my life."

"I know... Here, it's now yours." May hands Peter the keys.

Peter took the keys to the motorcycle his aunt just gifted upon him. "Thank Aunt May, it's perfect."

"Oh, one more thing." May forgot something as she went around the corner and pulled out a big present, she hands it to Peter. "I picked out something recently for you, open it up."

Peter opens a present, inside he found something very interesting, he pulls out and hold up a new black leather moto racer jacket.

"Do you like it?" May is curious.

Peter smiled. "I love it."

"Try it on." May encourages Peter.

Peter smiles as he puts it on over his white t shirt he's wearing, the moto jacket fits him as he gazed upon a mirror to see it fits him perfectly with his white t shirt and blue jeans with black sneakers.

"How do I look?" Peter shows off his new jacket.

May smiled. "Very handsome."

"Well, let's see if this bike is still working." Peter looking upon his new motorcycle.

"It still might, even when your uncle was still alive, he would tinker with it to keep it running, waiting for the moment to pass it on to you. Why don't you take it out for a spin" May suggested as she hands Peter a helmet.

(Theme Song: Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi)

Peter puts on the helmet, he wheels out the motorcycle out of the garage and onto the driveway, he then hops onto the bike and sits his butt down on the seat, he puts the key into the ignition and start it up, the bike's engine are waking up and purring showing that it's still in driving conditions.

"Wow, she's purring!" Peter is feeling the vibration of the bike.

"Exactly like I remember." May smiled.

"Okay, here goes nothing." Peter got his hands on the handlebars.

Peter has experience in riding motorcycles from all the times he's ridden his Spider-Cycle, he release the parking brake and gripped gently on the throttle grip, he gave it a roll and it accelerates out of the driveway, Peter is riding the motorcycle out in the streets as he's getting the hang of it, May walks out of the driveway and watched her nephew riding his motorcycle, Peter is smiling and laughed as he's very excited by this feeling, he continues to ride down the streets of Forest Hills without any difficulty. He rides around the block until he eventually returned back to his aunt's house, May is clapping and happy her nephew is able to handle riding a motorcycle like it's made for him.

"How does it feel?" May asking.

"It feels great, I think I'm starting to understand why Ben loved riding it." Peter still on his motorcycle.

"I'd figured you'd loved it, from here on out, it's your responsibility, handle it with care." May said.

"I will, I promise." Peter said.

"Alright, enough talk, now get on out of here before I change my mind and take you back." May made a joke.

Peter giggled at that remark as he rolls the throttle and drives away from his Aunt's house, May smiled as she watched her nephew riding away on his motorcycle, Peter kept on riding through Forest Hill and continues riding throughout Queens, eventually he made it to the Queensboro Bridge driving along traffic as he has a destination in mind, Jersey City.


The time is 1:10 PM in Jersey City at a penthouse apartment where Janet Van Dyne is living, she's at the top of the building on a rooftop sunbathing in her yellow bikini relaxing under the sun, she then gets up and jumps into the pool for a swim, she kept on swimming underwater to exercise, coming up to the rooftop is Peter Parker in his new leather jacket looking for Janet, he then spotted someone coming out of the water, Janet climbs out of the pool all wet as Peter is stunned to see her in a yellow bikini showing off her assets, Janet looked surprised Peter Parker is here.

"Hey Pete." Janet all wet in pool water.

Peter is stunned. "Sorry, I probably should've called ahead, didn't mean to interrupt your recreation."

Janet smiled as she's wiping herself with a towel. "It's fine, Pete... so, what can I do for you?"

Peter sighed. "Remember that time at the Thai Restaurant where you offered to make me a new suit?"

"Yeah..." Janet then suspects what Peter is about to ask of her. "Peter, are you saying that..."

Peter smiled and nodded his head. "I like a new suit."

Janet smiled. "Finally, it's about time, follow me."

(Inside)

Inside the penthouse, the place has a number of new suits created for Captain America, Black Widow, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and Spider-Woman Janet herself personally designed, she has a talent for creating costumes for superheroes besides her fashion designing, Janet is working on measuring all of Peter as he's standing perfectly still without his jacket on stretching out his arms letting her measure him for his size using fashion measuring tape, she's very surprised by his new appearance since the last time she seen him.

"Wow, can't believe how much taller you are, last time I saw you you were short." Janet measuring his height.

"Yeah, I've grown a few inches in the summer." Peter then looks at the recent suit designs. "I see you making some costumes for our friends."

"It's my talent, if I can make some fancy for everyone, why not for superheroes?" Janet measuring his arms as she's done.

"Looks like I came to the right person, I don't much about designing suits, don't get me wrong, I love how my old design looks." Peter as his waist is being wrapped in measuring tape.

"It's pretty nice, the red and blue are a great color combo, but it couldn't hurt to make some improvements, so what kind of change do you want to your suit?" Janet asking while measuring his waist.

"I like it to remain somewhat the same, but improved with something new." Peter said.

"Such as?" Janet asking.

"Since you're the fashion designer, surprise me, I'm sure you'll come up with something cooler, something... advanced." Peter wants it to be a surprise.

"Alright, I'll do my best to make the best suit I'm sure you'll love." Janet will make an effort.

"How long will that take?" Peter is curious.

"A couple days maybe." Janet gave an estimate.

"Okay, that's good, me and Gwen will be out of town on vacation for the weekend." Peter accepts that time.

Janet stopped measuring Peter. "Okay, I got everything I need, you can move now."

Peter started moving around the place as he walked up to see the newest designs Janet has created, Captain America's suit looks the same as his previous one but added with scalemail, Black Widow is made with blue lining up and down on each side for glowing with an red hourglass on the chest, Quicksilver has a silver lightning bolt across a blue long sleeve suit, Scarlet Witch has a scarlet red and black corset that runs down from her chest to her sash plus a red M shaped tiara to wear on her head, and last but not less is the Spider-Woman suit which is somewhat similar to Spider-Man's only with a big yellow spider in the middle of her body with yellow boots and gloves, her's came equipped with web wings.

"This suit is definitely a great improvement." Peter looking upon Spider-Woman's suit.

"I just hope Jessica sees it that way, I haven't from her." Janet said.

"What happened to Jessica?" Peter is worried.

"Last time I heard, she went to her father's new place somewhere in the U.S.A., he's been missing for two weeks." Janet explains.

"My god, that's terrible, I hope he's alright." Peter is stunned.

"So do I, Pete." Janet said.

Peter looks upon Janet still wearing her yellow bikini showing off her assets as she noticed him staring, Peter then looks away out of embarrassment.

"Sorry, this whole visual is... distracting." Peter blushing looking away.

Janet smirks. "It's okay, Peter, don't need to feel embarrassed, it's perfectly natural to feel that way, even at your age, you're going to have to get use to seeing a woman's body."

Peter looks back confused. "What do you mean?"

"Oh, come on, Peter, you're 18 years old and now an adult living with your girlfriend, you're both probably bound to experience a new stage in your relationship you've never been in before, passion." Janet said.

"Passion?" Peter is figuring out what that means until he finally realized what Janet is talking about. "Oh... you mean..."

"Yeah, the pleasures of the flesh." Janet is talking about intercourse.

Peter is stunned. "Oh... wow... I... never thought about it."

"Look Peter, having love is great and you both have that, true love, but you both need some passion too to keep it alive." Janet said.

"I guess that true, but..." Peter said.

"But?" Janet said.

"But... I... don't know how to do such a thing, me and Gwen never done it." Peter admits he hasn't experienced it.

"Look, I think its great that you both didn't do it while you're still in high school, that's being responsible, but now you're both in your adulthoods and you're both bound to feel something arousing for one another, something so strong that you won't be able to ignore it." Janet said.

"What if I... get it wrong and I end up disappointing Gwen?" Peter is afraid to fail.

"Peter... answer me honestly... do you love Gwen?" Janet said.

Peter smiled. "With all my heart."

"Then you're both ready, if you have a chance, go for it. Take from me, I once experience great love like you two have, with Hank, I still remember all the great things we had together, but I fantasize about what we could've had, I wanted to have a family and grow old with him, but I'll never get that chance ever again... Don't wait too long, Peter, with this life we live by, we never know how much time we have left on this planet, never knowing when our time will end. Don't throw away that chance, cause you may never experience it ever again once someone you love is gone from your life." Janet giving some words of wisdom.

Peter smiled. "Thanks... I'll think about it."

"Okay, I'll get started on the suit, hopefully it'll be finished by the time your vacation is over." Janet said.

"Thank you... for everything." Peter felt better.

"Anytime, enjoy your vacation, you'll need it." Janet said her goodbye.

Peter is putting on his jacket leaving the penthouse after getting measure for everything Janet needs to make this new suit and also having a conversation about experiencing consummation in a relationship, something Peter and Gwen haven't done yet, Peter is still shy about going through with it but he also though about what Janet said about their lives being dangerous enough to die so quickly and having never done it before their time is up, he doesn't want to live with that regret but can he overcome his fears when the time comes, only time will tell.

Eventually Peter made it down out of the penthouse apartment building walking towards his new motorcycle he used to get here, he's still out here in Jersey City thinking about what to take before heading back home, he then thought of something as he pulls out his phone and dials Gwen Stacy, he holds up the phone to his ear as it's ringing.

"Hello Pete?" Gwen answered the call.

"Hey Gwen, I'm out here in Jersey City, I'm going to be heading back home very soon, before that I was wondering if you're hungry." Peter asking.

"Sure, I could use a bite, what do you have in mind?" Gwen asking.

"You in the mood for some Thai?" Peter smiled asking.


The time is 3:28 PM back in the apartment in the Lower East Side, Gwen is setting up some finishing touches on the new apartment as Mary Jane is still here looking at the laptop on apartments in the city along with possible job openings for her to work to save up on money, Gwen pulls out a photo of herself along with Peter and Mary Jane from their high school graduation months ago, she smiled as it was the last time most of their friends were together before parting ways, she puts it back into the box next to their yearbooks, she chose to put a photo of herself and Peter next to the bed as she goes back to the living room to find Mary Jane still looking.

"Any luck?" Gwen asking.

"Nothing yet, all the apartments in the city are expensive and there's hardly any job openings happening at this moment, at least none of the qualifying ones for me anyway." Mary Jane said.

"I'm sorry things aren't going your way." Gwen said.

"Don't be, it's going to take a lot more than this to bring me down. So are you nervous?" Mary Jane said.

"Why? Cause me and Pete are finally starting our new lives together? Yeah, I'm a bit nervous, can't believe how much our lives have changed." Gwen said.

"I know the feeling, but at least you and Peter have each other for support, you'll be fine, trust me." Mary Jane smiled.

"Thanks, I hope things will turn out better for you." Gwen smiled.

"Appreciate it, so when is Peter coming over?" Mary Jane said.

"He'll be back soon, he's just picking up some Thai food over in Jersey City, apparently the best one yet, he also said that he's got a surprise for me." Gwen said.

"What kind of surprise?" Mary Jane is curious.

All of a sudden, they hear an engine purring and a horn honking as Mary Jane and Gwen both heard it, they went up to the bedroom window to look down and see Peter Parker down below waving up to them on his new motorcycle.

"What the?" Gwen is surprised.

(Outside)

Gwen and Mary Jane came downstairs and out of the apartment where they see Peter Parker parking the bike and got off to meet up with the girls showing off his new motorcycle along with his new moto racer jacket.

"Hey there, Danny Zuko, is there an audition for Grease I don't know about?" Mary Jane making a joke.

Peter smiled. "Good one, MJ."

"Pete, what is this?" Gwen looking at the motorcycle.

"This is our new bike, courtesy of my Aunt May and Uncle Ben, god rest his soul." Peter said.

"It's beautiful, Pete. Is it fast?" Gwen asking.

"It's a motorcycle, what do you think?" Peter said.

"Can't wait to find out." Gwen smiled.

"You'll find out tomorrow, this is our ride to the Hamptons." Peter said.

"You might want to find a better place to stash this bad boy, even in this neighborhood." Mary Jane suggested.

"Right, I'll ride around and find a parking garage to rent." Peter said.

Peter went to the bike's saddlebag and pulled out a paper bag of Thai food he bought from Jersey City and hands it to Gwen.

"Here you go, finest Thai cuisine of Jersey City." Peter gives it to Gwen.

"Thanks Pete, care for some?" Gwen asking Mary Jane.

"Nah, I should get going, I've been out for too long, someone still needs to watch over Ms. Lions, my aunt still ain't good with pets." Mary Jane said.

"Okay, take care of the dog." Gwen said.

"Thanks, I'll be back tomorrow morning to keep an eye on your apartment and say goodbye." Mary Jane said.

"Alright, see ya tomorrow, MJ." Peter said.

Mary Jane walks away heading on home to Queens as Peter hops back on his bike to find a safe place to store his motorcycle for the night while Gwen heads on back to the apartment with the bag of Thai food.


Around 5:45 PM at the apartment building in Washington Heights where Anya and Gilberto moved in, Anya inherited her father's investigative skills as she's at the computer in her room looking up information on Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy, she found an article on the mysterious luchador in red taking down a burglar responsible for the death of Peter's uncle Ben Parker, the next is the Midtown High Incident from three years ago where Spider-Man made his first appearance and saved the entire school including Gwen Stacy who almost lost her life that day, next one is where Peter Parker spoke up against Wilson Fisk exposing him as the Kingpin of Crime, the final one is from more than a year ago where Captain George Stacy lost his life helping the heroes defeat Mister Negative.

Anya has been connecting the dots from Miles Morales whom she already knows is the hero Kid Arachnid, all the photos taken of Spider-Man all came from the same photographer working at the Daily Bugle, Peter Parker, whom she figured out is Spider-Man. She studied the article on George Stacy's death, Gwen's father, after his death Ghost-Spider disappears for five months, Gwen moved away to London with her uncle Arthur, five months later she moved back to New York and lived with May as her foster daughter, afterwards Ghost-Spider came back and teams up with Spider-Man, Kid Arachnid shows up at the same time, everything fits. Anya then hear footsteps outside her room as she closes her laptop, the door opens and her father came in to check on his daughter.

"Hola Anya, how are adjusting to your new room?" Gilberto asking.

"It's okay, papa, still miss Brooklyn though." Anya said.

"You'll see it again very soon once your sophomore year starts." Gilberto said.

"Thanks for letting me stay at Brooklyn Visions Academy, still got great friends there." Anya said.

"You mean Miles and Ganke, it's nice you got some great friends you care about." Gilberto said.

"They are great friends... so how is work? It must be doing so well if you can afford this new apartment in the city." Anya asking.

"It is, the Daily Globe has given me a raise for all my years of service, I'd figure it's time to move into the city to be more closer to work. Speaking of which, I should get going, the Globe needs me to cover a story on this mysterious bedbug infestation happening all over Manhattan." Gilberto said.

"There are bed bugs out here?" Anya is surprised.

"Unfortunately yes, a number of exterminators are roaming the area trying to contain the spread. Okay, I'm off, don't stay up too late, get to bed early and don't let the bed bugs bites." Gilberto said.

"Si Papa." Anya smiled.

Gilberto gave Anya a kiss on the forehead before heading out to work, leaving Anya all alone at home, after she's completely alone, she opened up the laptop to continue researching Peter and Gwen as she figured out that they're the heroes Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider just like Miles Morales. She can't help but be fascinated by the heroic actions of Spider-Man, the guy once saved her life last year from the Tracksuit Mafia, she felt like her life is somehow tied to his, like she has a destiny tied to his along with Gwen and Miles.


The time is 10:21 PM nighttime down in Lower East Side at the apartment, a number of leftover Thai Food are in containers after Peter and Gwen are finished dining in, the couple have settled down in their new place as they're feeling pretty tired out for the night, Peter has his laptop left on scanning police scanners and emergency dispatch just in case trouble is happening in the neighborhood.

Gwen yawns feeling sleepy. "It's getting late, Pete, why don't we call it a night?"

"Yeah, there's hardly been any crimes in a week, we could use some shut eye, we gotta get up early for our trip to the Hamptons tomorrow." Peter agrees.

Gwen went to the bedroom only to find a single queen size bed in the apartment as Peter and Gwen are wondering who should have it.

"Guess we only have one bed to make do with, go ahead and take it, Gwen, I'll crash on the couch." Peter is about to walk to the couch.

"Peter, wait!" Gwen said.

Peter stopped himself. "What is it?"

Gwen is being shy. "Are... you comfortable sharing?"

"Sharing as in?" Peter is also shy.

"The bed is big enough for two, we could sleep together if you're okay with that." Gwen is shy.

"Ye-yeah, sure, if you're okay with it too." Peter is shy.

"Okay then." Gwen smiled still shy.

"Okay then." Peter smiled shy.

(Later)

The time is 10:46 PM on the alarm clock next to the bed, Peter is all dressed in his black t shirt and sweatpants laying on the bed waiting for Gwen to come out of the bathroom, Gwen is brushing her teeth inside as she's feeling nervous as she's about to share a bed with her boyfriend, eventually she finished and came out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a pink t shirt with a bra and panties underneath, Peter is stunned seeing Gwen like this for the first time.

"What?" Gwen smile asking.

"Nothing... you look great." Peter smiled.

Gwen felt happy as she climbs onto the left side of the bed and covers herself in a blanket, Peter is on the right side covering himself up, Peter and Gwen are both nervous sharing a bed in an apartment for the first time, it's just them and no one else. Peter and Gwen are still awake in an awkward situation since they're sharing a bed together and it's their first time alone as adults without any parent figure controlling their lives anymore.

"So... we're finally in bed." Peter being awkward.

"Yeah, we're finally in bed." Gwen being awkward.

"Okay, good night then." Peter turns away from Gwen to sleep.

"Good night, Pete." Gwen turns the other way to sleep.

Peter and Gwen are still looking the other way from each other unable to sleep as they're still adjusting sleeping together, but they eventually turn back around facing each other more closely.

"Gwen..." Peter said.

"Yeah, Pete..." Gwen said

"I love you." Peter said.

"I love you too, Pete." Gwen smiled.

Peter and Gwen leaned in closer and kissed each other, they then snuggled together for comfort, Peter has his girlfriend in his arms and so close to his body, he can feel her warmth and smell her scent, she cleans herself very nicely, most likely applied body wash on her skin when she showers, Gwen could also feel Peter's warmth and scent, he probably uses men's body wash on himself and it gives off an alluring scent. Both of their hearts beat as they're in an arousing situation together, it's becoming too strong for them to ignore but they still maintain control of themselves as they just let things be for now.

"This is... very nice, you smell great." Peter snuggle with Gwen.

"Yeah, you too." Gwen blushed.

"Hopefully tomorrow will be a great day, we'll be on vacation, what can go wrong?" Peter is being confidant in tomorrow.


It's August 24th, the time is 4:45 AM midnight far out in the Atlantic Ocean, very far away from the mainland at the supermax prison the Raft, a number of dangerous prisoners are still locked up in their respective cells, including a few members of the Sinister Sixteen who were imprisoned for months due to their role in terrorism with Doctor Octopus against the whole world, some guards are passing by each cell handing out food to feed them, every food is depended on their size and biological needs such as Rhino's enormous size so they had to feed him something very big with a lot of calories.

At some point the guard arrived at a special cell block containing certain prisoners, this one is an aquarium with a huge tank full of water built specifically for a supervillain called Tiger Shark, a human/shark hybrid all orange and grayish-black with a long black fin, the guards brought in a special meal, full body of meat, the guards powered down a laser net as some are aiming their guns at the supervillain keeping his face down in the water.

"Yo, ugly, it's time for dinner."

Tiger Shark isn't moving a muscle and still flowing underwater unresponsive making the guards worried.

"I think Bruce has gone belly up."

"Fine, get the net, time to fish him out."

The guards stopped aiming their guns and walks away to get the equipment needed to pull Tiger Shark out for an examination, leaving a couple guards to fetch the taser, unknown to them bubble are flowing up to the surface, Tiger Shark is breathing. Eventually the guards came back to the aquarium to find a couple of their buddies in the water dead, puddles of water on the floor which made them spooked, coming out of the water is Tiger Shark as they're too late to react and got pulled into the tank, but they never came out, Tiger Shark did after he killed the guards and left them floating in the water, the alarms have trigger, he rushes out and starts to make his escape from the Raft as the whole place is on alert.

A number of guard armed with electro batons and riot shields attempting to block his way, Tiger Shark still kept on running down the hallway tackling any guards in his path with all his strenght, sending them flying, he's still making his way to the outside as many more guards are arming themselves with lethal weapons to kill the escapee from ever escaping, eventually he found a hatch as he rips it off with all his strength, he sees the ocean right before him, the smell of seawater is refreshing, but his moment got interrupted as more reinforcements came and aimed their weapons.

"Stop right there, don't even think about it!"

Tiger Shark can't take them all on at once, so he jumps from up on high until he finally splashed into the ocean, the guards look out to see a figure in the water and started shooting, Tiger Shark is swimming around deep underwater dodging all the bullets pouring into the seawater, he's at a huge advantage now that he's underwater and making his escape, swimming far away from the Raft, the guards have failed to stop him as Tiger Shark has escaped, now he's on the loose and dangerous around the sea.


The time is 7:45 AM in the morning in the Lower East Side, outside of the apartment Gwen Stacy is dressed up in a blue jean jacket with a white tank top underneath with blue jeans holding up a duffel bag full of clothes and other essentials needed for the trip to the Hamptons, she's with May and Mary Jane waiting on the sidewalk along with Miles and Ganke for Peter to come with the ride.

Gwen hands Mary Jane the keys. "Here you go, MJ, you have the place to yourself for the weekend."

"Not to worry, I'll keep it tight when you get back." Mary Jane said.

"What about you Miles? Are you sure you're up for it? Keeping this city safe on your own?" Gwen asking.

"Don't worry about me, I got this. You both go and enjoy your vacation, you need it." Miles assured.

"Okay, call us if anything big pops up and we'll come back soon." Gwen said.

"I said I got this, have faith in me." Miles smiled.

Gwen smiled. "I know you do."

"Don't worry, I'll be his guy in the chair backing him up." Ganke said.

"Thanks man. So where is Peter?" Miles is curious.

"Don't worry, he's coming." Gwen smiled.

The group then hears a motorcycle coming out the corner of the street, it's Peter Parker wearing his new jacket zipped up with gloves, Peter rode his motorcycle down the street and came up to the side showing Miles and Ganke his new vehicle, neither May nor Mary Jane aren't surprised since they've already seen it yesterday, Peter takes off the helmet and shows off.

"Whoa! That's neat!" Miles is impressed.

"Sweet, you got your own set of wheels." Ganke is impressed.

"Thanks, the bike's in perfect condition for travel, we all set?" Peter asking Gwen.

"All packed and ready." Gwen said.

Gwen is walking up to the back of the bike and hopped onto the backseat, Peter smiled as Gwen got a hold of him.

"Wait!" May said.

"What is it?" Peter asking.

"I like to take a picture of you two in this moment, you know so that you can have great memories of this bike." May suggested a picture.

"Yeah, that sounds like a great idea, hang on." Peter asking Gwen for the duffel bag, he pulls out his camera and hands it to his Aunt May. "Here."

May steps back to a great vantage point for the photo, she aims the camera at Peter and Gwen both on the motorcycle looking at May, May is adjusting the lens for better picture.

"Okay, here goes, smile!" May aiming the camera.

Peter and Gwen smiled together on the bike as May took the picture and capture it on camera, May walks up to Peter and Gwen as she shows them the photo on the camera's back screen of them on the bike happy together.

"It's perfect, thank you Aunt May." Peter smiled.

"Alright, we've taken enough of your time, better get going, the Hamptons awaits." May encouraged them to go.

"Right, time to go. Ready, Gwen?" Peter looking back at Gwen.

"Ready when you are." Gwen smiled.

May hands Gwen the camera to put back into the duffel, Peter hands Gwen a helmet for her to put on, he got a spare one in the saddlebag and puts it on his head, he then puts on his sunglasses as Gwen got a hold of Peter from the back, they're all set for the trip, Peter release the parking brake and rolls the throttle, the motorcycle rode away out in the streets as Gwen is waving them goodbye, the group smiled and waved goodbye to Peter and Gwen off on their vacation. Peter is still driving through the city towards the Brooklyn Bridge, they finally took the bridge as Gwen is smiling, loving the feeling of riding on the motorcycle.

"Tell me, Gwen, is it too fast for you?!" Peter still driving.

"I like it fast!" Gwen smiled.

Peter and Gwen are enjoying themselves riding the motorcycle together, this is one of their happiest moments of their lives, they still ride through the bridge until they made it to Brooklyn and continue their journey, staying on the highway heading towards the Hamptons for their weekend vacation.

"Gwen Stacy, all kinds of amazing!" Peter narrates this part of the story.


Later around 9:01 AM at a penthouse in the city, 18 year old Kate Bishop is training with 15 year old Anya Corazon in the workout room teaching her Kickboxing for self defense, Anya is tossing a combo of punches and kicks as Kate is holding up the pads, Kate is dressed up in a purple sports bra and yoga pants, Anya has learned a number of martial arts from Kate in the past year since she got kidnapped along with Kate last year by the Tracksuit Mafia, so far she learned Kickboxing, Karate, Judo, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and Aikido, Anya kept on kicking and punching improving on her technique, wanting to be brave enough to face trouble in the future.

"Okay, that's enough for now, time for a break." Kate Bishop said.

Anya stopped practicing as she and Kate take a break from all the training, they both drank in some water feeling thirsty, Anya looks upon the room to see a couple of bullseye targets with arrows marks, she even saw the bow next to the quiver full of arrows.

"Still practicing archery?" Anya is curious.

"Sure am, ever since he saved my life." Kate Bishop said.

"Hawkeye?" Anya said.

"Yeah... that day changed me, I had a gun to my head, I thought I was going to die, until he came and saved my life, you could say I wanted to be just like him. I know that it sounds ridiculous." Kate Bishop was inspired.

"It's not, I get you, I remember that day too, it was actually my first time being afraid for my life, then Spider-Man came to my rescue along with his friends, I'm still in this world cause he came and saved my life, he's my hero." Anya said.

Kate Bishop smiled."Hawkeye is my hero, with the way the world is going, it needs more heroes willing to do what's right more than ever."

"I wish I could be one, you know, having powers like Spider-Man, making a difference." Anya said.

"That be something." Kate Bishop said.

"So, I hear you're going to college very soon." Anya said.

"Right here in the city, ESU." Kate Bishop told of the university she's attending.

"Huh? What a coincidence, I know a couple people going there too, names Peter and Gwen." Anya said.

"Really? I'll be sure to keep my ears open if I ever run into them. Alright, break time is over, let's get back to training." Kate Bishop said.

Kate puts on the pads again as Anya still has the gloves on, she got back to practicing her skills in combat, Anya was inspired by the heroic actions of Spider-Man since the day he saved her life, she wished that she could be just like him, but she can't since she's got no powers of her own, she's just a regular teenage girl about to enter her sophomore year, all Anya can do is be brave with relying on her combat skills to keep her out of trouble, but she can't ignore the truth of Spider-Man being Peter Parker, a close friend of Miles Morales, it's something she'll have to live with for the rest of her life.


Later around 9:58 AM far out in Long Island, Peter and Gwen are still on the highway on a two hour long drive until they've finally arrived at the Hamptons, they're passing by through town near the beach where a lot of people came out to enjoy the beach for vacation, they're heading straight towards the billionaire lane where only the wealthiest can live in style, they eventually made it to the neighborhood looking at all the expensive houses by the beach. Peter keep on driving the road until he finally arrived at the address Harry gave him, Peter stopped the bike at the gate as he uses the key Harry gave him to access the gate, it opens up and the bike drives through the driveway, they finally arrived at the beach house owned by the Osborns as Peter parked the bike and they step off stretching their leges after two hours riding, it's pretty massive for a vacation home.

"Wow... so this is where Harry spends his summers on vacation." Gwen looks around.

"Guess being extremely wealthy can pay for this place, let's go inside." Peter said.

Peter and Gwen walks up to the front door as Peter uses the key to unlock the door, he opens up and they finally enter the Hamptons house for the first time, the interior of this place is exquisite, must've cost a fortune to decorate such a place, they venture around the house from the kitchen to the living room where they can get a better view of the pool outside facing the beach, they then walk upstair towards the bedrooms, each are equally fancy than the next, they eventually found a room for themselves as Gwen tossed the duffel bag onto the bed, she then walks up to the balcony and sees the whole ocean outside, people walking back and forth, sunbathing, playing volleyball, surfing, and swimming.

"Look Pete, it's beautiful out there." Gwen looks out.

Peter came to Gwen's side. "Yeah... beautiful."

Gwen turns her face to Peter as he looks upon her, they kiss each other right there on the balcony, she tossed her arms around his neck and he gripped her waist.

"It's all quiet out here." Peter smiled.

Gwen smiled and flirts "Which means we're all alone... I want to go out there and have fun. Care to join?"

"Mmm." Peter smiled and nodded his head.

Gwen walks back to the duffel bag, she searches through and found her swimsuit. "I'm going to go change in the bathroom."

Gwen walks into the bathroom and closes the door behind her, giving her the privacy needed to change out of her clothes, Peter took the opportunity to look through the duffel bag for his swim trunks, he picked out a black one, since Gwen is in the bathroom changing, he started to undress himself, he took off his leather jacket, pulled off his white t-shirt, untie his shoes and takes off his socks from his feet, he unbuckles his belt and unzipped his jean, he only got his boxer left to wear as he starts to put on his swim trunks over it, he stands and looks himself in the mirror to see his new figure he's developed recently, all lean and muscular, he's matured his body.

"Okay Pete, I'm ready." Gwen in the bathroom.

Coming out of the bathroom is Gwen Stacy wearing nothing but a white bikini showing off her exquisite figure, Peter turns around to see Gwen in all her beauty, he's seen her in a bikini before a couple year ago, but this time she's more mature and beautiful than ever especially in other areas, Peter can't help but stare at her, particularly her chest areas that grew to 32C, Gwen noticed Peter staring at her in all her natural beauty.

"What?" Gwen is curious.

"Nothing... you look... divine." Peter is stunned.

Gwen blushed and smile. "Thanks, you're not so bad yourself, I like this new you."

"Shall we?" Peter asking.

Gwen nodded her head as Peter and Gwen are heading out of the house and walking out the back heading towards the beach to have some fun on their vacation.


Around 10:51 AM far out in the Atlantic Ocean from the coast of the Hamptons, a Coast Guard ship is out on patrol keeping the seas safe from piracy or on stand by participating in emergency rescue missions, but there hasn't been any action so far, unknown to anyone, something is swimming at high speed underwater heading towards the mainland, the crew are on still monitoring and ready until they're receiving an alert for an escapee out in the ocean that got the crew's attention.

"Captain, we're getting a notice, something is up."

"Put it through."

"Attention, this is S.H.I.E.L.D. calling out to any law enforcement agencies, there's a fugitive on the loose somewhere at sea, be on the lookout for anything dangerous!"

"A fugitive? Out here in open waters? How dangerous is this guy?"

All of a sudden, the hull of the ship got bumped hard as everyone on board felt the vibration.

"What the hell was that?!"

They then hear gunshots firing outside as the Coast Guards are engaged against something outside on the ship, the captain tells everyone "Arm yourselves!", the crew inside all mobilized and went to the locker to arm themselves up. After they've each got a weapon, they went outside to see members of the Coast Guard down all dead, some have bit marks on their body, other have their limbs torn from them, they got very scared as they have no idea who or what is responsible for this massacre.

But they then hear something breathing above their heads, they all turn and look up to see some kind of shark creature all gray with black stripes with arms and legs, they're about to shoot but they were too late as he jumped down and attack all three of them, they all scream in terror as Tiger Shark is tearing them apart limb by limb, eventually he finished killing everyone on board the ship, he seemed to take pleasure in killing people without remorse, he then turns his attention towards the mainland far ahead.

"Look out everyone, Tiger Shark is back!" Tiger Shark said with pride and pleasure.


The time is 11:23 AM at a beach around billionaire lane in the Hamptons, a good number of people are enjoying a great time out here, playing volleyball, sunbathing with lotion, playing in the water, Gwen is taking a swim around the waters along with Peter as the waters are warm this time of year, eventually they came out of the water for some air, Gwen then splashed some water onto Peter, Peter smiled and laughed, he splits some water back at Gwen, she's laughing as they're both having some fun.

"Quit it, Pete!" Gwen smiled and laughed.

"Hey, you started it!" Peter kept on splashing and giggles.

Eventually Gwen is the first one to come out of the water with her being all water, she went up to the towel laying on a basket, she dries off her hair, Peter is looking at Gwen all wet from the seawater on her skin which made her very appealing, a number of guys who are here are noticing a beautiful blonde in a white bikini, she's got the body of a supermodel, she's getting quite the attention, Gwen finished as she tossed her towel to Peter for him to dry up his hair, Peter is noticing all the attention Gwen has attracted from some beach boys, Gwen is taking a drink of water from the bottle.

"Look like you've got some admirers." Peter said.

"Don't be jealous, Pete, they can look as much as they want, but I'm already taken." Gwen smiled.

"How did I get lucky to have you, Gwendolyne Stacy?" Peter flirts.

"Let's see if you can still keep me." Gwen teases as she sprays water from the bottle.

Peter got splash with water in the face as Gwen giggled and ran away, Peter smiled and chases after her, running down the sandy beach back to the mansion, not knowing that far away from in open waters a figure is watching from afar to see so many people enjoying their lives happy not knowing that trouble is about to start soon.

Meanwhile back in the mainland, Gwen finally made it back to the mansion as Peter finally caught up and got a hold of her, they roll up on the backyard lawn smiling and laughing, Gwen is being hugged too close to Peter in his arms as he laid on his back against the grass, their skins came into contact feeling each other's warmth.

"Gotcha." Peter flirts.

Peter and Gwen smiles until they looked upon each other very closely, their bodies are still pressed against one another, their hearts are beating together more intensely than ever, Peter placed his hand on her left cheek as his other hand is on her back, Gwen leaned in closer and kisses Peter more passionately than ever before, Peter can't think of anything else but the intense kiss Gwen is giving him, she taste like peaches and strawberries, he can feel his hand on her back as he skin is soft and smooth, he chest pressed against his, their emotions are getting too heightened by all the passion they're giving one another, Gwen has her hand on his chest and strolls it down towards his abs as Peter opens up his eyes and regained control before things go any further as he know where this is going, he grabbed Gwen's hand and stopped her right there as they stopped kissing.

"Gwen, wait." Peter breathes and whisper.

"Peter, relax, there's no reason to feel embarrassed." Gwen assured.

"I know, but..." Peter is being shy about this.

"What is it, Pete?" Gwen looks confused.

Peter being shy about this whole thing. "Don't you think we should take things slow?"

"Peter, we've been taking things slow for three years." Gwen said.

"I know, it's just... I want this first time to be perfect for us... the truth is... it's... it's my first time." Peter smiles as he confessed to Gwen.

Gwen smiled back in relief. "It's mine too."

Peter looks stunned. "Really? You've never..."

"No, you?" Gwen is curious.

"No, you're the one I love, Gwen, I've always have." Peter said with sincerity.

Gwen looks upon Peter and smiled. "I love you too, Peter."

Peter and Gwen are caught in the moment as they got back to kissing each other, Peter is still being shy about going through consummation and intimacy, but this feeling for Gwen is too strong for him to resist, he can't help but think of nothing but her, he feels her body pressed against his as his heart beats and his skin is getting warmer, it's an arousing feeling he never felt before in his life, he got his hands on her back and gave into the passion, his hands are reaching the back of her bra, they're about to enter the next stage in their relationship, but that moment got interrupted by screaming from the beach, Peter and Gwen stopped themselves and got back up on their feet, they all rushed to the beach to see what the fuss is about, a lot of people in the water are rushing out of it as fast as they can trying to escape something.

"SHARK! THERE'S A SHARK IN THE WATER!"

Peter and Gwen sees a shark's fin coming towards the beach but everyone got out of the water in time.

"I thought there were no sharks infesting these waters this month." Gwen is confused.

"Well, at least everyone got out in time, sharks can't come on land." Peter said.

But they were wrong as something is coming out of the water, it's looks like a shark but it's humanoid with arms and legs, it can survive on land, it's Tiger Shark walking out of the water and onto the sand.

"Unless it's got legs and can walk on land." Gwen said.

Peter sighed. "So much for a decent vacation... let's suit up."

Peter and Gwen rushed back inside the house, they made their way up the stairs towards the bedroom where the duffel bag is lying on the bed, they pull out their respective suits, Gwen went to the bathroom to change into her new suit, Ghost-Spider suit 2.0, it's similar to the original one she wore before, but built for her new physique, she's looks exactly the same except it's made for her new height and her well developed chest and waist, Peter is still in the bedroom changing into the Spider-Man suit 2.0 as it's similar to his previous one built for his new height and figure.

Outside on the beach, Tiger Shark is looking around to see everyone is scattering away trying to escape from him, one of them is a young woman in a bikini as she's running but she then tripped on the rock beneath the sand, she fell down on the sand as she turns around to see Tiger Shark walking up to her.

"Hello my dear!" Tiger Shark smiled.

The woman screams in terror from the shark man as he's opening up his mouth about to bite down, but his mouth got webbed up and the woman got webbed up and pulled away by Ghost-Spider, she saved the women from being devoured, Tiger Shark removes the webbing from his mouth and got very upset, but he was distracted from noticing Spider-Man jumping in for a drop kick and knocked him off balance. Ghost-Spider tells the woman to run far away from the beach as Spider-Man joined up next to his partner, Tiger Shark gets back up on his feet to see two heroes out here in the Hamptons.

"What are you two doing out here far from home?" Tiger Shark speaks.

"What do you know, he can talk." Ghost-Spider said.

"We're on vacation, at least we were. Who are you suppose to be, Sharky?" Spider-Man said.

"Someone who's been locked in a cage for months, now I'm free and I crave for a taste of blood." Tiger Shark said.

"Well, whoever you are, I don't know where you came from, but you're going back there one way or another." Spider-Man said.

"You both have no idea who you're dealing with." Tiger Shark said.

"Funny, I could say the same to you." Spider-Man said.

"Then I guess I'll have to kill you both, cause I'm never going back." Tiger Shark gets aggressive.

Tiger Shark made the first move and rushed towards his enemies attempting to bite one of them, Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider both split up dodging his bite attack, he missed as Spider-Man webs up Tiger Shark's legs and pulls them hard, making him fall down on the ground, Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider both worked together to web up the shark man, they were able to create a cocoon to encase him, they hoped that it would hold him, but they were wrong as it's strong enough to break free screaming.

"Okay, that definitely didn't work out as planned." Spider-Man said.

"You think." Ghost-Spider said.

Tiger Shark kicked the sand on the ground towards Ghost-Spider as she's getting blinded by the sand in the air, Tiger Shark attempts to attack her while she's blinded, but Spider-Man is rushing to prevent that as he jumped on back of Tiger Shark, wrapping his arms around his neck and holding him in place, Tiger Shark is attempting to shake off the hero off his back, he then resorted to grabbing a hold of Spider-Man and tossed him hard towards a cigarette boat parked on the beach. Ghost-Spider saw Spider-Man is down on the boat, she webs Tiger Shark but the supervillain got a hold of the line and used it to pull her in with all his strength, Ghost-Spider got pulled in and ended up in the hands of Tiger Shark, she's unable to escape from his fury, Spider-Man is recovering to see Ghost-Spider is in danger.

"Ghost-Spider... no..." Spider-Man said silently.

Spider-Man needs to do something before Tiger Shark finishes her off, he then spotted a speargun in the boat used to fend off sharks, he got an idea. Meanwhile Tiger Shark still has Ghost-Spider in his grip as she's still unable to get away from him.

"I've been defeated by a hero before, now I get to kill one, let's see how you look without your head." Tiger Shark said.

Tiger Shark is opening up his mouth about to kill Ghost-Spider by biting off her head, Ghost-Spider is powerless to do something as she awaits her death, but Tiger Shark stopped as he screams out in pain, a harpoon was fired from a speargun and pierced his left shoulder, Spider-Man was the one who fired that weapon and pulls in the metal line, yanking his arm, forcing him to loose his left hand, Ghost-Spider took the opportunity to punch Tiger Shark hard in the face with all her strength, he fell down on the ground, he's getting back up before spitting out blood along with his teeth she knocked out with her super strength, Tiger Shark looks upon his enemies as one of them broke his jaws.

"You'll pay for that, you bi..." Tiger Shark attempts to insult her.

"Watch your mouth!" Spider-Man cuts him off.

Tiger Shark wants to fight back but he then hears police sirens coming from the shore and the sea as well as Coast Guard helicopters coming in, he's outnumbered and he's too injured in the left shoulder and his jaws is damaged, he's at a huge disadvantage.

"This isn't over!" Tiger Shark vows revenge.

Tiger Shark then rushed back into the ocean as both spider attempts to web him before he makes it, but they were too late, he dived in and made his escape underwater escaping capture, the heroes were successful in saving lives today, but they have a feeling that this isn't over, they'll see him again soon.

Spider-Man sighed. "Where do all these guys come from?"


Later around 11:56 AM at a closed boatyards in the Hamptons, surrounded by many dismantled boats and machinery, Tiger Shark is taking refuge here and using it as a hideout to hide himself from the authorities, he's still in pain as he pulls out the harpoon out of his shoulder and he flinched, he check his wound to see that it's still bleeding and injured, he then turn his attention towards his damaged jaws where Ghost-Spider knocked out at more than a dozen teeth, Tiger Shark uses one of his unique abilities as a shark hybrid, he's able to regenerate more teeth to replace the ones he's lost and fixed his jaws, he stretch out his mouth to see it's back to normal.

Tiger Shark closes his mouth. "There, that's more like it. If those two think they've seen the last of me, they're so wrong, I've spent months caged like an animal and they've treated me like one. Well, this animal is finally free and craves death, now it's time for me to exact vengeance and I'll kill anyone I come across, including those so called heroes, they haven't seen the last of Tiger Shark."

Tiger Shark choses to stay and recovers while in hiding, even though he's part human he's driven by a shark's instinct to kill, he's already taken many lives since his escape from the Raft, now he plans to kill more to satisfy his killer instincts he's wired too, he plans to get back at the heroes Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider for his recent defeat.


The time is 1:55 PM around in the Hamptons, more than two hours later after the attack by Tiger Shark, beaches everywhere are currently closed and unsafe while this monster is still on the loose, no one is safe, boats and helicopters are patrolling around the waters on the lookout for this shark monster, Coast Guard and local police are working together coordinating in the search but still no sign of the fugitive. Meanwhile at the Osborn house, Peter and Gwen are still in their suits watching the news on the laptop on this incident out here in the Hamptons shown footage taken by phone of Tiger Shark terrorizing the beach and fighting Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider before he escapes.

"Earlier today in the Hamptons, a strange shark creature came out of the water and began terrorizing a day at the beach, people running for their lives, fortunately thanks to the strange intervention of the heroes of New York, Tiger Shark wasn't able to harm any civilians, but the villain has made his escape and still on the loose, until he's brought in, all beaches in the area are closed off to the public until further notice."

They're still watching the news until they've received a call on the computer, they switched off the news and accepted the call, it's Miles Morales and Ganke Lee on live video back in Spider-Cave in the city.

"Guys, we've heard about what happened out there, are you both alright?" Miles talking from the Spider-Cave.

"Yeah, we're all fine, just disappointed our vacation got interrupted." Gwen said.

"What's this we're hearing about? This shark man?" Miles said.

"He looks more shark-like but humanoid, he can come out on land and attack people." Peter said.

"Like Sharknado?" Miles said as Peter and Gwen are confused. "It's a shark series Uncle Aaron used to show me."

"I thought this was more like Jaws." Ganke made a movie reference.

"Anyway... Ganke, can you do a search on anything related to this shark creature?" Peter asking.

"Sure, give me a minute..." Ganke Lee is typing and searching on the supercomputer until he got something. "Interesting, there's a S.H.I.E.L.D. report made from the Raft, a prisoner recently escaped there last night, killed off so many guards, the description matches that of the shark man you've encountered."

"So this escapee and the shark guy are one and the same, send us everything you got on this guy." Peter said.

"Sure thing, sending it right now." Ganke Lee typing.

Peter and Gwen both received an email as they opened up and shows them all the information S.H.I.E.L.D. has on this Tiger Shark, they finally see a photo of this supervillain and realized that is the same guy they've fought against.

"Is this your guy?" Miles asking.

"Yeah, that's him." Peter confirms it.

"His name is Todd Arliss, he goes by his codename Tiger Shark." Ganke Lee said.

"Tiger Shark, that's catchy." Peter said.

"It says here he was part of some kind of twisted experiment to merge shark DNA with that of a human, the experiment was successful, too successful until he developed a shark's instincts to kill, he ended up killing the scientists who created him, afterwards he started killing all over the sea, he even attacked a cruise ship out in the Atlantic until Iron Man came and stopped him before the casualty counts went any higher, after he was defeated S.H.I.E.L.D. took custody of him and locked him up in the Raft serving a life sentence for multiple counts of murder." Ganke Lee explained.

"Wow, this is kinda like Deep Blue Sea." Miles made another movie references.

"Really, anymore shark references you want to get out of your system." Peter said.

"So this guy isn't just a supervillain, he's also a killer." Gwen said.

"Apparently he's already killed more, a Coast Guard ship was found out far out at sea, the entire crew was slaughter, torn to pieces." Ganke Lee said.

"My god." Gwen is stunned.

"And he's still out there, we need to find him before anymore lives are lost." Peter said.

"I doubt he'll be far away, you pretty much injured him in the shoulder, he couldn't have gone very far in his condition." Gwen said.

"So most likely he'll still be around, probably in hiding, we just need to figure out where." Peter said.

"From what I've heard, this guy is pretty tough, do you need my help?" Miles said.

"Appreciate it, Miles, but with me and Gwen far away from the city, we can't leave it unguarded, you need to stay there and protect the city while we got some fishing to do." Peter said.

"I understand, good luck to you both." Miles said.

"You too." Gwen said.

"Take care, Miles." Peter said.

Miles sighed off and stayed behind in New York City to protect it, Peter and Gwen are going to figure out where Tiger Shark might be hiding before he strikes again, but they're a bit distracted by what they've almost did before this disaster happened, giving into their passion, neither of them have talked about it since it almost happened and it's making their jobs difficult.

"Peter, about before..." Gwen is being shy.

"Don't worry about it, Gwen, let's just stay focused for now." Peter said.

"Yeah... let's stay focused." Gwen agrees.

Peter and Gwen decided not to talk about it and to stay focused on finding Tiger Shark, Peter is a bit distracted himself as he gave in against his better judgment and instincts, but a part of him wanted to despite having never done anything like this, another part of him is still scared of going through with it as he's afraid that he might end up disappointing Gwen due to being inexperienced with intimacy, but he shakes it off and stays focused on the mission for now.


Later back in New York City in the Spider-Cave, Miles Morales is dressed up in his new Kid Arachnid suit 2.0 made for his new height, Miles is on stand by waiting to rush into action in case trouble is brewing, meanwhile Ganke Lee is still at the supercomputer trying to find a lead on Tiger Shark hiding somewhere in the Hamptons, but he's not getting any luck finding him.

"Anything?" Miles asking.

"Nothing so far, this guy has managed to stay under the radar... by the way, have you noticed anything odd about Anya recently?" Ganke Lee said.

Miles looks confused. "What do you mean?"

"Haven't you noticed the way she's been acting around you, like she knows something." Ganke Lee said.

"Do you think she suspects me? That I might be Kid Arachnid?" Miles said.

"Who knows? I just have this feeling." Ganke Lee said.

Miles sighed. "I have to admit, she's been acting strange ever since Uncle Aaron's funeral, she sees me differently... I don't know, maybe it's nothing."

"Yeah, you might be right, if Anya really knew, she would've told us." Ganke Lee said.

"Would she? Even we are keeping secrets from her, so why not keep secrets from us?" Miles said.

"You got a point, all we can do is wait for Anya to trust us enough to tell us, let's just be patient." Ganke Lee said.

Miles remain silent until he speaks. "So you got any bright ideas?"

Ganke is thinking until he thought of something. "Maybe... this guy is like half shark, right?"

"Yeah, so?" Miles said.

"So he must be living under the same conditions as a regular shark, he can move on land, but he must be in close proximity to seawater in order to survive, so he's a creature of habit, then..." Ganke Lee said.

"He must be hiding so close to the water, that's brilliant." Miles is impressed.

Ganke Lee is using a supercomputer to map out the Hamptons looking for any places near the water that would be suitable as a hideout for Tiger Shark, even so there's a lot of possible hideouts.

"Okay, I found a few places, but it's still a lot of ground to cover." Ganke Lee said.

"It's better than nothing, send everything you got to Peter and Gwen to search." Miles said.

"Sure thing." Ganke Lee types the keyboard.


The time is 5:01 PM back in the Hamptons, Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider has spent hours patrolling around town, specifically close to the waters, searching building to building using the list of possible hideouts Ganke gave them to narrow down, they eventually made it to the boatyard that has been closed for months, they see a lot of dismantled boats and machinery but still no sign of Tiger Shark.

"Doesn't look like anyone is here." Ghost-Spider said.

"Well, this is the next one on the list, since we're here, let's take a close look, but carefully." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider approach the boatyard carefully as to not spook Tiger Shark who is still no where in sight, unknown to any of them bubbles are forming up to the surface as something is breathing underwater, Ghost-Spider is looking around the water on the lookout for Tiger Shark, she then began to hears some humming sounds in the form of "Jaws" theme making her nervous, she then remains calm and turns her attention to Spider-Man who's making those sounds.

"Can you quit it? It's making me nervous!" Ghost-Spider isn't amused.

Spider-Man giggled as he's being silly. "Sorry, can't help it."

"If you're done goofing around, let's get back to work." Ghost-Spider walks away.

"Oh come on, I said I was sorry." Spider-Man follows.

Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider went back to searching around the boatyard for any signs or clues, they spotted something down on the ground ahead, Spider-Man went up for a closer look and bent down to pick up a harpoon with blood all over it, its the same harpoon Spider-Man used on him, he shows it of Ghost-Spider.

"Look familiar?" Spider-Man showing a clue.

"So he was here." Ghost-Spider said.

"He could still be around, let's search around for Jaws, or should I say Jawless." Spider-Man made another joke.

Ghost-Spider giggled at that joke until their spider senses tingles as danger is coming, Tiger Shark came out of the water and made his attack, the heroes jumped away before Tiger Shark could bite them again, they see that Tiger Shark has a new set of teeth to replace the ones he's already lost.

"Who are you calling Jawless, Smart Mouth?" Tiger Shark smiles with his new jaws.

"Oh... hey there, nice teeth." Spider-Man being humorous.

"One of the perks of being park shark, I can regenerate and replace teeth, so no matter how many times you knock my jaws off, I'll grow another." Tiger Shark explained.

"Good for you, but unfortunately you're still under arrest and you're going back to the Raft, Tiger Shark." Spider-Man said.

"So you finally know who I am, I'm touched, but I'm never going back to the Raft, I guess I'll have to kill you both." Tiger Shark said.

Tiger Shark then picked up an anchor hooked up with chains to be used as a weapon, he spins in around and tossed it towards Spider-Man who then jumps off the wall, the anchor made a hole in the wall as Tiger Shark pulls it back and holds it ready to be used again, Spider-Man joined up with Ghost-Spider as Tiger Shark swings the anchor again, they both jumped up over the chains, they landed on the ground.

"Switch to taser." Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider set their web shooters to tasers and fired off taser webs as they upon contact with his shark skin, he's being zapped with so much electricity overloading his electric field senses, he can get any baring as he retreats back into the water, he jumps and dives in, Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider rushed to the edge of the dock to see that Tiger Shark is still underwater, he's in his element now.

"Great, he's underwater, now what?" Ghost-Spider said.

"Now we fish him out, I have an idea." Spider-Man has a plan.

"What is it?" Ghost-Spider said.

"I'm going to use myself as bait to draw him out, there's a crane hanging above the water, I'm going to swing in closer to the water and get his attention, I need you to web him up with the web grenade, then we both taser him together, that should be enough to keep him under." Spider-Man explained.

"Spidey, that's too dangerous, what happens if he manages to get you? You could die!" Ghost-Spider protested.

"We have to try something, if he gets away, many people could die later on, this could be our only chance to stop him." Spider-Man made up his mind.

Ghost-Spider stayed silent until she reluctantly nods her head. "I hope you know what you're doing."

Spider-Man sighed. "Yeah, me too... okay, I'm going."

"Hey... be careful, don't you die." Ghost-Spider is worried.

Spider-Man gave an "OK" hand to her before making his move, he's still a bit nervous as he fired his web line at the crane and swings in close across the water attempting to get Tiger Shark's attention, hoping that he'll take the bait, Ghost-Spider is on stand by aiming her web shooter to take the shot, she hopes that she makes it count otherwise Spider-Man might die as a result. Spider-Man is holding onto the web line above the crane hovering over the water awaiting Tiger Shark to take the bait, Spidey attempts to taunt him.

"Here, Sharky, Sharky!" Spider-Man taunts.

Spider-Man is a bit scared as it could all go wrong and he could die as a result, even Ghost-Spider shares this feeling he could die if she misses this shot, Tiger Shark is coming up to the surface at high speed and jumps high above the water with his jaws widen open, Spidey screams "NOW!", Ghost-Spider fired off a web grenade towards the supervillain still high up in the air almost reaching Spider-Man's head, he's feeling afraid for his life as Tiger Shark is closing in as this could be it, he looks upon Ghost-Spider and she's all he can think about, but the web grenade is flying across the water as it finally hits it target and wrapped the supervillain in a cocoon, Spider-Man is saved and Tiger Shark got himself trapped, Spider-Man then webs up the cocoon and connect it to the crane, Tiger Shark is trapped in the cocoon attempting to break free again, Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider both worked together very quickly before he could breakout, Spidey still on the crane.

"This is it, let's do it!" Spider-Man said.

Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider both fired a web line towards Tiger Shark still trapped in the cocoon, afterwards they've began to unleash voltages of electricity upon the supervillain as he's screams and getting shocked from both heroes, Tiger Shark is unable to do anything to get himself out of this situation, since he came out of the water and his skin is all wet, all that water served as a conductor and he can do nothing but feel all the voltages doing it's work on his body, eventually he stops scream as he passed out cold, the heroes both stop the shocking as Tiger Shark isn't moving, he's knocked out cold.

"Hey... check out this big fish we just caught!" Spider-Man being humorous.

Ghost-Spider is smiling underneath the mask at that remark, but they're were successful nevertheless, they've finally captured Tiger Shark.

(Later)

A number of local police along with Coast Guard and S.H.I.E.L.D. agents have secured the scene around the boatyard, news reporters are there as they see agents are taking in Tiger Shark all restrained in chains, they're boarding him onto the quinjet while Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider are talking with Phil Coulson.

"Thanks again for your help, now we got Tiger Shark back in custody again." Phil Coulson said.

"You guys really need to up your security at the Raft, seems like villains have a habit of checking out." Spider-Man said.

"We'll make of it, and again, thank you both, now everyone can get back to enjoying their vacations in peace." Phil Coulson said.

"Yeah, let's hope there's not another shark lurking around to ruin it again." Ghost-Spider said.

"Good luck you two and enjoy your vacation." Phil Coulson said his goodbye before walking away.

Phil Coulson is walking to the quinjet about to transport Tiger Shark back to the Raft to be locked up for good, now Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider can enjoy their weekend vacation in peace, but their day is far from over as they still have one more thing to resolve before it's over, their feelings in passion.


Around the same time back in New York at Washington Heights, at the apartment owned by Gilberto Corazon, Anya is watching TV in the living room of the recent news broadcast from the Hamptons of Tiger Shark's capture by Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider, the supervillain is being boarded onto the quinjet and the Hamptons is once again safe for everyone to enjoy their vacation thanks to the heroes efforts.

"Earlier today, a supervillain identified as Tiger Shark responsible for a number of deaths on a Coast Guard ship wrecked havoc in the beautiful Hamptons beach and disrupted everyone's vacation, but fortunately thanks to the actions of Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider, he has been brought to justice and the Hamptons is once again safe for everyone to get back to their vacation."

Anya is impressed that Spider-Man and Ghost-Spider did it once again, being heroes at a right time, she already knows Peter and Gwen are the ones responsible for taking down Tiger Shark and saving many lives. All of a sudden, the door open as Gilberto Corazon just returned home from work as Anya switched off the TV.

"Hey dad, did you hear about what happened?" Anya said.

"Everyone heard, too bad I couldn't be sent out to cover this story, I was too busy doing my investigation into these strange bed bug epidemic." Gilberto Corazon said.

"What do mean by strange?" Anya is curious.

"The bed bugs are only manifesting in Manhattan, not in the other four boroughs, not just that, there are at least 5 different bed bug species all over Manhattan which is unusual this whole thing seems intentional rather than natural." Gilberto Corazon explained.

"Intentional?" Anya is confused.

"Is as if someone or something is unleashing them into the city. But the bigger question is why?" Gilberto Corazon is still investigating.


Somewhere else in Manhattan, in a secret hideout covered in a number of webbing, a scientist is working overtime all chained up to the desk being forced to work on something involving the bed bugs, injecting each of them with some kind of formula he labeled "Spider-Virus", pulling the strings is an unknown female figure hiding her identity in the shadows behind a number of webbing and spiders.

"How is the progress?"

"They're almost ready... they've all been injected with super spider venom along with the Spider-Virus."

"Excellent, the first bed bug epidemic test run passed with flying colors, soon these new breed of bed bugs will swarm the city and infect as many people as they can, once they're all exposed to the Spider-Virus, I'll shall build an army powerful enough to build an empire with New York being my throne. I can't thank you enough for all your work has done... Dr. Drew."

The scientist has been revealed as Dr. Jonathan Drew, the geneticist responsible for creating the super spiders that gave certain individuals powers that made them heroes, he's been chained up and forced to work for this mysterious woman under the threat for his life, she wanted him to inject the bed bugs with spider venom to infect the entire city, she has something big in mind for the future, something big is coming soon and it will consume all of Manhattan and it's people.


Later around 8:30 PM in Jersey City at Pym Laboratories, Janet Van Dyne is using the company's resources to build new suits, she's at the fabrication machine uploading the design schematics for Spider-Man's newest suit, a holographic display of the suit design shows up, its similar to Spider-Man's original design but with some white built around the arms and a big white spider on the chest, this suit is equipped with a number of upgrades, she's designated it the "Advanced Suit".

"Okay Spidey, you new suit is being made now." Janet pressed the button.

Janet watched as the fabrication machine is doing it's work to design a masterpiece for Spider-Man, one she's very confident he'll come to love and use in the future, he's in for quite a surprise once he's done with his vacation.


Time is 9:59 PM nighttime in the Hamptons at the Osborn house near the beach, Gwen is in the bathroom showering alone before she switched off the water and came out to dry herself off, she's changing into her nightgown for the night while Peter is in the bedroom dressed in a black t-shirt and sweatpants talking with Miles on the phones about their recent success in taking down Tiger Shark thanks to their help in finding him in time.

"We've seen the news, Pete, great job in taking down Jaws." Miles congratulates.

"We couldn't done without your help, you and Ganke, thanks to the leads you gave us, we were able to find Tiger Shark in time before he could make his escape, you guys deserve the credit too." Peter said.

"Thanks man, appreciate it, enjoy your weekend vacation with Gwen, the city will be waiting for you both when you get back." Miles said.

"I knew I made the right choice leaving the city in your hands, I have faith in you... Goodnight, Miles." Peter smiled.

"You too." Miles hangs up from his end.

Peter sits down and put the phone onto the drawer next to the bed, coming out of the bathroom is Gwen dressed up in a light blue nightgown with her hair a bit dried up, Gwen looks amazing in the gown as it's shows off her shoulders and her cleavage, Peter is stunned seeing Gwen like this, he's still dealing with the arousing feelings of that lead them to intimacy neither he or Gwen talked about since then.

"Was that Miles?" Gwen asking.

"Yeah, he just wanted to congratulate us for our success in taking down Tiger Shark, he wishes us a great vacation." Peter said.

"That's very nice of him, though he and Ganke do deserve some credit." Gwen said.

"Don't worry, I told them that too, they appreciate it." Peter said.

"Good..." Gwen remain calm as she has more to say. "Listen Pete, I'm... I'm sorry if I went a little further earlier today, I just got caught up in the moment and I know you're still new to this whole thing just like I am, I should've just taken things slow."

Peter smiled and shakes off his head. "It's okay, Gwen... even though I'm shy about this whole thing, the truth is... a part of me wanted to give in."

"Listen, if you're not up to this, then it's okay, there's no shame, I can still wait until you're fully ready." Gwen is willing to hold off on intimacy.

Peter smiled. "I appreciate it, but I'm tired of waiting any longer."

"Peter, what are you saying?" Gwen is confused.

"Earlier today when Tiger Shark had you in his grip, I was so scared that you might've died right there in that moment, and when I was using myself as bait I felt that fear again, I was afraid that my life was about to end in that moment too and all I can think about was you." Peter confessed his fears.

"We've both been close to death many times before in our line of work." Gwen said.

"But this is different, because of who we are and how we live our lives, we never know how much time we have left in the world, never knowing when our time will end, there are so many things in life I still want to experience with you, and I want this to be one of them." Peter said.

"Are you saying that..." Gwen is stunned.

"I don't to wait any longer, if you think you're ready for this, Gwen Stacy, then I want to experience this special moment with you, together." Peter gave a wam smile.

"Are you sure about this, Pete? You're not afraid?" Gwen is surprised.

Peter smiled and shakes his head slowly. "The only thing I'm more afraid of than experiencing it... is never experiencing it with you... I love you, Gwen Stacy."

Gwen gave a warm smile. "I love you too, Peter Parker."

(Theme Song: Breathe Again by Sara Bareilles)

Gwen stands a bit close in front of Peter as she reach her hands to her shoulder straps, Gwen is still a bit shy about this whole thing as her heart is beating in passion, she slid the straps off her shoulders and lets the nightgown fall off her body to the ground, Gwen stands before Peter all topless in her white panties, Peter is stunned by what he's seeing, Gwen in all her natural beauty, he's never seen this side of her before as Gwen still remains shy and looks back at Peter starring at her and her assets. Peter remains calm and began to reach his hands down to the bottom of his t-shirt, he slowly pulls and takes it off his body, he tossed it aside showing Gwen his lean and muscular figure with abs, he's now topless as she is, Gwen is looking upon Peter's figure, he's so handsome and sexy, Peter's heart is being as Gwen is gazing upon him, they walked in closer to each other as Peter reach out his hand to her cheek, Gwen is blushing while Peter looks upon her face.

"Gwen... you're so beautiful." Peter whisper.

"So are you." Gwen smile warmly.

Peter and Gwen lean in closer and kisses each other, they're bodies hugging together and their skin coming onto contact, they can feel each other's warm while kissing each other passionately than ever before, Peter then picked Gwen up off her feet and carries her to the bed where he gently lays her down upon the mattress, looking down at Gwen laying on the sheets, he climbs onto the bed and leaned in closer to kiss Gwen laying on her back, Gwen wrapped her arms around Peter's neck as they kissed together, his chest pressed against hers, they continue to passionately kiss before Peter breaks off and kisses her cheek down to her neck, Gwen has her eyes closed and gasps as she felt his lips against her neck, this feeling of passion is getting too strong for her to resist. Peter kept kissing down her body until he reach her stomach, eventually they switched place as Peter got on and is laying back on the bed while Gwen is kissing down his body, he could feel her lips on his abdomen.

Sometime later Gwen is laying back on the bed with her arms crossed across her chest as Peter got a hold of the strap of her panties, he slowly pulls it down her legs until they reached her feet and got tossed aside, she's now completely exposed waiting for Peter to make his move on her. Peter then got a hold of his sweatpants and slowly takes it off and left it on the ground before he climbs into the bed and covers his lower back underneath the blanket as he's on top of Gwen, Peter kisses Gwen again passionately before he looks upon her face as this very beautiful moment is about to happen, they're about to fully consummate for the very first time as they're feeling a bit nervous as to what's about to happen, they're about to pass the point of no turning back once it's done.

"You sure?" Peter whisper.

Gwen smiled and whisper. "Yes... definitely yes."

Peter smiled back before he got back to kissing Gwen passionately as he's making his move to consummate with his girlfriend, Gwen wrapped her arms around Peter's back and holds onto him tightly as he took things very slowly and gently, until he made his move and he finally joined himself with Gwen as they're bodies are joined as one in a lot of ways, they both clinched their teeth and closed their eyes, they've gasped together as they finally consummated their relationship for the first time, they can feel one another in a way they've never done before, they felt more alive in that moment than they ever have before, Peter and Gwen both breathe calmly as they've fully crossed the point of no return, Peter looks upon Gwen to see a bit of tears in her eyes as he could tell this was a bit painful for her as it is to him.

"Gwen..." Peter got a bit worried.

"It's okay, Pete, I'm alright... keep going." Gwen assures she's fine.

Peter leaned in closer to kiss Gwen as he's making his move underneath the sheet, Gwen wrapped her arms around his back and gasp as she's feeling Peter consummating with her, this feeling is very overwhelming as their emotions are all over the place as things are heating up on a biological and emotional level. Peter then rolls over and lays on his back while Gwen is laying against his chest with her chest pressed against him, Gwen leaned in closer to kiss Peter as she's the one doing the consummation, Peter has his hand on her back and strolls it down feeling her soft skin, Peter began to kiss Gwen's neck before strolling his hands down to her waist before rolling back and laying Gwen on her back. Peter looks upon Gwen as they're breathing and gasping in passion, he leans in and kisses her again, Peter and Gwen's hands gripped each other as they're still consummating their love as this feeling is so wonderful, they've never felt this alive, it was the best night of their lives.

"That's when you had me, Gwen Stacy, all of me!" Peter narrates the story.
