Chapter 1 Meet and Greet
“Hey I’m Daniel Cody Doughshane and I’m New York’s one and only Spider-Man, Well I thought I was until it happened. Let me start it over so you know what I’m talking about.”
2 Years ago
Thwip Thwip, Spider-Man is swinging through the air when he hears a loud crash and screaming. He quickly looks at the direction of the sound and sees a school in terror. “Oh no I gotta get there quick.” Spider-Man said. He quickly dived to the building, over seeing a window in the school. Spider-Man saw a guy in a black ski mask, an armored vest and army pants holding an Ak-47. “Shit I gotta stop him now or those people are going to die.” Spider-Man mumbled then quickly webbed the ceiling of the school and kicked the window and broke it. Spider-Man rolled on the floor and stood up but it was too late. The armored guy gripped his gun tighter and yelled
“Oh shit I’m caught.” and pulled the trigger killing every civilian in the classroom. Spider-Man in shock and anger yelled
“No!.” and webbed the armored guy’s gun, threw it at him then webbed his face. Spider-Man brought the guy closer to him and kicked him in the side of the face, knocking him out. When Spider-Man thought it was safe he had a sense that someone was behind him so he turned around quickly.
“Hey, looks like you got it covered.” A guy looking quite like Spider-Man said.
“Who are you?” Spider-Man asked,
“Me, well I’m Spider-Man.” the guy who claimed he was Spider-Man said. Spider-Man chuckled
“Funny, but seriously who are you?”
“Spider-Man, who are you?” The guy who claimed he was Spider-Man questioned
“I’m Spider-Man the one and only in fact so stop lying.” The guy who claimed to be Spider-Man tilted his head like he was confused and said
“Peter?” Spider-Man responded
“No, I’m not Peter, I’m Daniel and your name is?”
“Miles my name is Miles, and I didn’t know that there was a new Spider-Man.” Miles replied. Daniel felt like Miles was a good guy so he opened up.
“I didn’t even know that there was more than one Spider-Man.”
“Well now you do but I gotta go see ya.” Then Miles shot his webbed from his wrist and swung out of the school. Daniel looked at the dead bodies and said with sorrow
“I’m sorry this happened, I promise I’ll do better.” Then Daniel swung out of the school. Spider-Man looked at his watch then mumbled in shock “Fuck I’m late for school I gotta hurry.” and he swung faster. When Spider-Man arrived he landed on the top of his school and quickly got undressed out of his Spider-Man suit. As Daniel was shoving his costume in his book bag he rushed down the stairs and sprinted to his classroom. *Ring *Ring The bell rang and Daniel ran faster. The teacher almost closed the door when he saw Daniel running down the hall. “Wait!” Daniel yelled as he ran to the door. The teacher still holding the door was shaking his head in disappointment. “I made it.” Daniel announced as he was breathing heavily.
“Next time be early and this won’t happen.” The teacher said to Daniel.
“K I’ll try.” Daniel replied, knowing he will never be early to class. Daniel sat down next to his best friend Sullivan. “Yo Sully what’s up.” Daniel said as he clapped Sullivan’s hand and he sat down.
“Dude, I think the teacher is getting fed up with you.” Sullivan leaned over and said. The teacher looked back at Daniel and announced
“Tomorrow I’ll be switching seats for the second marking period.”
“I fucking hate this bitch.” Daniel whispered to Sullivan
“Danny, I think I agree with you.” Sullivan declared to Daniel in a friendly sarcastic tone. Daniel laughed quietly and then focused on the teacher’s talking.
40 Minutes later
As Daniel and Sullivan were sitting in their seats hoping class would end they got exactly what they wanted. *Ring *Ring the bell rang and Daniel and Sullivan bolted out of the classroom. As the two boys were walking through the hall Daniel saw a beautiful girl with black hair, brown eyes and asian. Daniel stood there stunned by her beauty when Sullivan started to notice Daniel was not next to him. Sullivan looked back and saw Daniel standing there staring at this girl, Sullivan went up to Daniel and said
“Dude you’re staring, stop.” Daniel woke up from his hypnosis from the girl’s beauty and responded
“I’m sorry what?”
“Dude what happened?” Sullivan asked Daniel.
“It’s that girl over there she’s so hot.” Daniel declared to Sullivan.
“Dude that’s Giada, She’s the most popular girl in the school and we’re not.” Sullivan tries to say without putting Daniel down.
“I know but just look at her, she’s stunning. I definitely want to be with her.” Just then the bell rang and Daniel and Sullivan were officially late to Cooking class. Daniel and Sullivan were sprinting through the halls when they saw their door to their class closing. Daniel put in his spider skills and ran at 15 MPH passing Sullivan and arriving at the classroom door in no time. The teacher, already away from the door, turned around to see Daniel holding the door open for Sullivan and announced
“Excuse me boys but why are you late to class?” Daniel tried to come up with an excuse when Sullivan butted in
“Teacher, the reason us two passing boys were late is because we had to get our materials for biology because if we don’t have them she will fail us for the day.” Sullivan was a good liar and Daniel didn’t know how he did it but the teacher believed it and they were allowed in the class. As they entered the class a big buff boy with a jock shirt on yelled
“Yo y’all late gay boys.” Sullivan had a bit of a temper when it came to bullying so Daniel tried to calm Sullivan down but it failed
“Shut the fuck up you big brainless ape.” The big buff boy quickly stood up and yelled back
“No you shut the fuck up you gay bitch go kiss your boyfriend you’re always with uh.” Before the argument came to a climax the teacher yelled really loud.
“KNOCK IT OFF YOU’RE BOTH GONNA GO TO THE OFFICE NOW.” Daniel tried to calm down the situation by convincing the teacher.
“Ms.Pepercot Luke started the argument by teasing Sullivan by calling him provocative names and of course Sullivan is gonna defend himself it’s human nature.” Ms.Pepercot looked back on the facts and was persuaded by Daniel’s argument and only sent Luke to the office and let Sullivan stay.
“Thanks Daniel for having my back.” Sullivan gave grace.
“No problem Luke’s a jerk so he deserves it.” Then they got back to class. Fast forward to the end of the school day Daniel is walking with Sullivan when Sullivan asks
“Yo, you wanna hang out today.” Daniel did want to hang out but couldn’t because of Spider-Man duties.
“Nah sorry dude I gotta help with the charity thing.” Daniel responded.
“Dude you’re always helping out with so called charity thing, can’t you just hang out just this once.” Daniel thought to himself for a second but then remembered what happened this morning.
“Not today man sorry I gotta go.” Then Daniel left. Daniel snuck back on top of the building to get his suit, when he got to the top of the building he was walking in the direction the suit was. *Tap Daniel felt on the back of his head with a gust of wind going past him. When Daniel looked up he saw Miles, the other Spider-Man swinging away with a chase me look. Daniel put on his mostly white suit that had black thin lines with blue stripes diagonally across the neck bone to chest with a dark blue spider symbol on the chest part of his suit. Daniel jumped off the building and swung forward trying to look for Miles. Daniel swung for hours trying to look for Miles but it eventually became night. The city lights up with multicolored lights when the snow starts to fall a little. Spider-Man was swinging when he saw a drug deal going on in an alleyway so he dived down and interrupted it. Spider-Man webbed the buyer to a car by his wrist to get him stuck when the dealer started to run. Daniel shot a web line to the guy’s back and dragged him over to him. Spider-Man kicked the dealer in the face, the dealer fell down when Spider-Man picked him up by the shirt. “So like selling drugs and killing people?” Spider-Man asked with anger.
“Please I-I’m sorry please don’t.” The dealer was interrupted by Daniel’s anger
“SHUT THE FUCK UP!” Spider-Man raised his fist and swung his fist and it almost hit the dealer when the momentum on Spider-Man’s fist stopped. Spider-Man looked back to see Miles dressed in his black and red Spider-Man suit.
“SPIDER-MAN STOP!” Miles yelled at Daniel. Daniel looked at the dealer, the dealer was flinching and crying. Miles walked over to Daniel and grabbed his shoulder. “Let him go.” Daniel dropped the dealer and the dealer started to run. The dealer ran till he reached the end of the alleyway when Miles webbed him to the wall where he couldn’t move. “Dude what are you doing, were you trying to hurt him?” Miles started lecturing Daniel.
“I -I -I -I’m sorry I shouldn’t have done that.” Daniel owned up to his actions.
“Why Daniel, why did you do it?” Miles concerningly asked.
“Can we talk somewhere else like on a roof or something?” Daniel asked.
“Sure as long as you don’t run.” Miles stated. Daniel chuckled,
“I won’t.”
