Kapitel 4: 04
It was a late night for Oliver Queen, a long day getting ready for the King hall opening really wore him out. Figuratively and very Literally. But upon returning to his place in Seattle, Oliver turned on the news and much to his surprise the sighting of a new vigilante stunned him.
" Our top story tonight, Stolen tech from the Star Labs Seattle branch has been recovered by police, after thieves who stole it were captured by what they described as a Spiderman. The vigilante wearing a red suit with a blue hoodie and black spider on it, seemingly helped stopped the speeding thieves. We at this time have no further information on the thieves, but reports of the civilians have spotted the spider themed vigilante swinging through the city. Unfortunately, we have no further footage as Police lost pursuit of the masked vigilante, but rest assured we will be providing more information once the police have conducted their investigation. This has been channel ten news, on your side."
" A new spider themed vigilante? What is this guy Black Spider? He looks like a kid. This is going to be a mess." Oliver stated. " Better find this kid, quick before he gets himself killed." Oliver walked to his room, and there he grabbed his gear. He had hoped to find this spiderman tonight if possible. He didn't need any distractions in taking King down, and this spider kid was definitely a distraction.
........
Meanwhile, across town, David was just getting back home, after his first exciting night as a superhero. He stopped some thieves and outran the police. So, not all entirely successful, but hey.
As he was climbing in through the window, his phone went off.
" Shoot." David muttered. He was trying to be stealthy so, he wouldn't wake his aunt up. But his phone was ringing loud.
He quickly pulled it out and answered it, while also hoping that he got to it fast enough.
" Hello? Who is this?" David asked.
" Uhm, Hi, David. Sorry for calling so late, I didn't want to bother you. It's Mia... Mia Dearden? From school."
" Oh, Mia!" David suddenly jumped up excitedly, failing to remember that he was still sitting on the window, and he ended up hitting his head hard. " Ow! Shoot!" David fell and hit the floor with a thud,
" David, are you alright?" Mia asked.
" Yeah, sorry. Just... Fell out of bed. Anyways, what's up? How did you get my number?"
" Your friend, Roberto gave it to me."
Inside his mind, David was both thanking and cursing Roberto's name.
" Oh, that's cool. So what's up? It's kind of late." David told the girl.
" I just wanted to make sure you were doing okay. It's just you've been so distant for the last week; we were beginning to worry about you."
" Thank you, Mia... I really appreciate you calling me." David told the woman. " And yeah, I'm... Doing alright. I've just been so busy working on a project that I haven't really had time to think about anything else." David explained. " Its been hard since, Uncle Ben died."
" I know, David and I'm sorry."
" It's fine. I'm not struggling too much. It's my Aunt I worry about. It's been rough on her, Mia."
" Is there anything, you need?"
" Just time... We need time to heal. But thank you for asking, Mia. I really appreciate it."
" Okay... Well, good night, David."
" Good night, Mia."
David hung the phone up and immediately started searching through his contacts for Roberto's number and when he found it he sent him a very strong message.
" You dick."
A few moments later, David received his reply.
" You're welcome! :)"
David laughed while rolling his eyes. He quickly sat his back down and stripped from his clothes and hid them in a bag underneath his bed.
" Guess, I should hit the sack now. I am pretty tired." David gave a loud and egregious yawn and then closed his eyes.
........
The Next day at school, David was walking through the crowded hallways, listening to the chatter. Everyone in the school was speaking about the Spiderman.
" Dude, did you see that video. Guys crazy."
" He looked kind of young, do you think he was one of us?"
" No way!"
" Extraordinary velocity vector is a function of both mass and acceleration."
" Oh come on, you know better than anyone that the weight of the bottom in any pendulum has no effect on swing speed."
" It doesn't affect frequency, but it's totally a factor in momentum."
David stopped for just a moment and looked around.
" Whoa. This is awesome." He muttered.
" Yo! David. What's up man?" Berto shouted. He ran up to David and hugged him from behind.
" Hey, berto."
" Man did you see that Spider guy on the news? That was awesome."
" No, I didn't. What about him?"
" Dude, was swinging through the air, and he stopped a car with his hands. Dude! His hands! It was awesome." Roberto exclaimed.
" Yeah, he is." David muttered.
" What was that?" Roberto asked.
" Nothing. Come on, let's get to class." David told the boy. He patted him on the back and the two quickly made their way to class.
.....
After Class, David and Roberto stepped to the lunch hall, where the school was still buzzing with talk about Spiderman.
" Dude, I'm glad to see you're feeling better man. I was really beginning to worry about you before."
" I know, and I'm sorry for ignoring you these past few days man. I've just been so caught up with home and then I'm also working on this side project of mine, it just seems like too much sometimes, I get lost in the sauce a bit."
" I get it man. I do. But still, it's good to see you smiling again."
" I appreciate it man." David told Roberto. " So, what are you doing this weekend man?"
" Not much. Probably just gonna sit at home."
" Oh, that's boring."
" Nah, man. I need rest and relaxation. Berto needs to get his beauty sleep. You don't look this handsome unless you get some rest."
" But you still look like an ass to me."
" Oh, very funny. You very funny now. What about Mia? Huh? How did that conversation go."
" She called and asked if I was okay. I won't lie, it was nice to hear from her, so I guess thank you for giving her my number, douche."
" Hah! You're welcome. Bout time you two finally took a step forward. It's been like pulling teeth watching you fumble the bag every time you try to speak to her."
" I can't help it, man."
" Well, you might as well get used to it. Cuz here she comes." Roberto told David.
David nearly choked on his milk, before turning around to see Mia walking over to the two of them.
" See you later, Amigo." Roberto stated. He patted David on his back and quickly got up from the table.
" Berto... Berto come back!" David exclaimed.
" Hey, David." Mia spoke.
" HEY! Hey, Mia. What's going on?" David asked the woman.
" I wanted to eat lunch with you and Roberto. But it looks like he had somewhere to go. Is that cool?"
" Yeah, sure, have a seat. Have a seat." David told the girl.
Mia nodded and sat next to David with her bag and tray.
" So, what's up, Mia? How are you doing today?" David asked the girl.
" I'm doing pretty good. It's nice to see you smiling again. Haven't seen that in a while."
" Yeah, Berto told me the same thing. Before that he just wouldn't shut up about this Spiderman guy though." David spoke.
" Spiderman?!"
" Yeah, Spider-Man. What do you think?"
" I think he's cool." Mia told the boy.
" That's it?"
" Yeah, I mean it's nice to see people trying to help. But we already have so many different heroes running around these days, it's hard to keep track of them all." Mia spoke.
" I guess, that's true. Still though, I gotta admit, it's pretty cool having a hero of our own."
" Yeah... Our own hero." Mia seemed suddenly downtrodden, something, David picked up on.
" Hey, what's wrong?" David asked the woman.
" Oh, s-sorry. I was just thinking about home." Mia replied.
" Things are... well, things aren't going to well with mom and dad." Mia told the boy.
" What's wrong? You wanna talk about it?" David asked the girl. He scooted a little closer to the blonde, placing his hand over hers supportingly.
" No, it's fine... I shouldn't have brought it up. You have already have your own problems to deal with."
" No, no. It's okay. I want to know. I'm always ready to lend a hand or even a helping ear." David told the girl.
" It's... It's nothing, David. Don't worry about it." Mia responded.
It seemed she did not want to talk about it at all, so David decided to respect her boundary and did not press the matter further.
" I get it. I understand. But if you ever do want to talk, just now I'm here for you, okay?"
Mia smiled softly and nodded.
" Hey, what are you doing this weekend?" Mia suddenly asked.
" Uh, well. I didn't really have any plans myself. Why?" David asked the woman.
" How about you come over and have dinner at my place?" Mia asked.
" Uh." David muttered.
From across the hall, he spotted Roberto standing with his thumb in the air.
" Sure, that sounds great. I'd love to." David told the woman.
" Awesome."
" Yeah."
" Yeah."
" Well, uhm... I think lunch is just about over. I think we should get going. I'll see you after Gym." David told the woman.
": Yeah...."
.......
" We have a robbery going on, on 7th street. Need Officers at the location immediately."
David leaped off the roof of the industrial building he was standing on and started swinging over to 7th street.
" Come on, man! Hurry up!"
Four men were breaking into a jewelry store in the middle of the night hopping to make a quick buck. Unfortunately for them, the store they chose happened to have a silent alarm.
" Alright, come on let's get out of here."
The four men ran outside the building together, and in a moment Spider-Man swooped down and snatched two of them up off the street.
" FOUR!!!!!!!" David shouted. He threw the two men off to the side and webbed them both to the side of the building they were trying to rob.
He then dropped down onto a street light right above the remaining two.
" Hey fellas, good night to go to jail?"
" Spiderman! Kill'em!"
The men raised their guns and started firing at David.
David jumped off of the pole and webbed one of the robbers in his face.
" Ah! What the hell is this?"
David shot two webs out and used them to slingshot both of his feet into the man's face, knocking him out cold.
The last robber turned and pointed his gun at David, but David jumped out of the way again.
" Come on, is the gun necessary?"
" Stay still!" The man yelled. He turned and shot at David again.
" Seriously man? Is this where you saw your life going?"
Bam! Another shot missed.
" Come on, dude. Real talk: You're kinda bad at this." David joked.
" Knock it off!"
" Right sorry for the motormouth!" David smacked the gun out of the man's hand with ease, he then punched him in the face hard, and before the robber hit the ground, David grabbed him with two webs and pulled back up to his feet only to knee him in the face, knocking him out.
" Gee, I gotta work on some of these quips." David muttered. He webbed the last two robbers to the street, and just as the sound sirens grew closer, he leaped into the air and swung away.
.......
" Again? Another one of my jobs upstaged by some punk in a red suit and a blue hoodie? What am I paying you losers for?"
" We're sorry, King. But we didn't expect this spider guy to be there. We've been planning this for months; the chances were low."
" I don't want anymore of my business getting messed with because of some punk in a hoodie, understand me? This problem? I want it fixed! Got it?"
" Yes sir. What should we do about the redevelopment project?"
" Those buildings can't get mowed down until, I get permission from the city. So, let's speed up the process, tomorrow night, I want you to burn it down."
" Burn it down?"
" Yes, as much as you need to. If there's a substantial amount of damage, then I can use it as an excuse to build my condos there. It's a simple fucking concept."
" But sir, one of your stores is apart of the-"
" Then, I'll get the insurance money on the building back. See? I paid fifty grand for that little rinky dink shop. It gets burned down, I get a million back in insurance money, and you all might just get a Christmas bonus this year. See, doesn't that sound nice."
" Yes sir."
" Okay, now go! Get out of here! My wife daughter should be home soon and I don't want them to hear me discussing anymore business."
" Yes sir."
" Now go!"
