"Nah, dawg. A bear beats a bull in a fight."
Marinette watched Adrien from afar. He was hanging out with his friends. Not Nino though. After a two-week trip to New York City, he somehow had three American friends.
The first had black hair and blue eyes that sometimes looked like they glowed green. The second was a tall, lanky guy with purple hair. The third was the shortest with green hair and teeth that almost looked like fangs.
"Snooping as usual, I see?"
Marinette panickily turned around. Peter, Karen, and Jaime were all staring at her with disapproval.
"That's it. Marinette Dupain-Cheng, as one of your best friends, I am going to make a degree!" Karen exclaimed.
"What is that degree?" Marinette asked.
Before she had a chance to react, Marinette was snatched by both arms by Jaime and Peter.
"You are going to tell that boy you like him, that's what."
Marinette struggled and squirmed in the arms of Peter and Jaime. Somehow she was enough to have the two boys struggling.
And Peter can lift cars.
"Karen, bit of backup here!" Jaime said.
"Ok, ok!" Karen grabbed Marinette by the waist. But she was still struggling.
"Nette, I love you, but you are hopeless sometimes." Jaime groaned.
"Maybe you can say that when you confess your crush to Jenny." Marinette hissed.
The struggle got so bad, the four didn't even see where they were moving. Not even when they were about to crash into Adrien's friend group. Until it was too late.
SMACK!
"OW!"
"WONK!"
"DUDE!"
"OOF!"
And now the eight teenagers were in a large tangle of limbs.
Marinette would be screaming bloody murder at the others right now...
...if she wasn't face to face with Adrien. So, she just went red in the face, paralyzed with fear.
Karen groaned. "Mari, you are impossible with the gu-"
"Wait, is that you Jake?!" Peter said.
Suddenly, the boy with green hair seemed to go pale while Peter glared and glowered at him.
"No..." He said.
Just then, Peter managed to untangle himself and almost leaped at Jake. Jake managed to untangle himself just in time to prevent Peter's hands from being wrapped around his neck. And fortunately, Peter and Jake unwrapping themselves made it way easier for the others to do the same.
Now the six teens were watching Peter chase "Jake" across Françoise Duport High School.
"Wait... Is that guy's name Peter Parker?" The guy with black hair asked.
"Yeah?" Karen said.
In a couple seconds, the boy with black hair, the boy with purple hair, and Adrien all burst into laughter.
"Oh no..." Adrien giggled.
"Context?" Jaime asked, confused.
"Jake bought the last Pro-Tec skateboard from the shop before Peter. Dude chased the shoob halfway across NYC." The guy with purple hair said.
Karen, Marinette, and Jaime all winced. As much as he didn't look like it, Peter was a fan of skateboarding. It was his second-favorite method of transport behind web-swinging.
"Get away from me, Parker!" Jake yelled, still running.
"Give me the skateboard!" Peter yelled, still chasing.
"NEVER!" Jake screamed.
"NOT A REQUEST!" Peter yelled.
Now everyone was laughing at the scene that was unfolding.
"Danny." The guy with black hair introduced himself.
"Randy, brucest boy alive." The guy with purple hair introduced himself.
"Karen."
"Jaime."
Eventually Peter and Jake had to end their little chase. Not because Peter forgave Jake, or because Jake was willing to give him the skateboard. Nope, because Hawk Moth was up to shenanigans and the town needed the Arthro-Squad.
"When I find you, Long..." Spider-Man muttered.
"Dude, was that skateboard that cool?" Blue Beetle groaned.
"YES!" Spider-Man yelled. "You should've seen it! The wheels were perfect, and-"
Suddenly, Spidey's Spider-Sense went off. Before anyone had a chance to react, the Arthro-Squad was smacked by four other superheroes.
"OW!"
"WONK!"
"DUDE!"
"OOF!"
Ladybug ended up face-to-face with Chat Noir. "Hey, m'lady."
Ladybug pushed Chat Noir off her. Then she saw the other superheroes her friends crashed into.
A ghost, a ninja, and a dragon.
"Dude, really?" Bumblebee was tangled in the Ninja's scarf.
"Dawg, oww..." The dragon rubbed his head, which Blue Beetle smacked head-on.
"What the hell?" Spidey was the only one who managed to escape the chaos largely unharmed.
"Sorry, ma chere. I forgot to introduce my friends. That's Ninja, Danny Phantom, and..."
"Jake, that you?" Spider-Man asked.
"Spidey?" The dragon perked up.
Suddenly, the two rushed to each other and did a type of secret handshake.
"You two know each other?" Ninja said.
"Know each other? Dawg, Spidey's my brotha from anotha motha!" Jake said.
"Cool. And as much as I'm glad two friends reunited, don't we got a villain to take down?" Danny Phantom asked.
"Oh, yeaaaah." Everyone said.
The eight teen superheroes then ran off to save Paris.
