I'm NOT a heroe
Miles walks through the halls of visions academy confused by the fact that he couldn't see himself
"o-okay, calm down Miles. Just ignore the fact that you're... Uhh I don't know, invisible?" Miles thinks. He looks at himself in the reflection of a window "Oh God, I think... I think I'm invisible, or something like that, maybe I'm... Camouflaged?"
He keeps walking and thinks "Maybe... Maybe Gwen can help me with this, and she can tell me that this... Oh God, what if... What if I'm a mutant? Like those that appear on television" he leans against some lockers and thinks "no, it's not impossible, nor can I be a mutant, I'm just a normal boy, I'm not a mutant" he moves from the lockers but his hands remain stuck to the lockers
"what...?" He tries to get away but without success "come on..." he muttered trying to get loose "stop... sticking" suddenly Miles is shot by a shot of electricity coming from his hands which sends him to the chemistry room where Gwen was.
This one comes in destroying the door and scaring everyone 'o-okay, ouch, although... That didn't hurt as much as I thought it should, it felt like... Falling off my bike and not having gone through a door'
From this, still invisible, he releases a spark from his fingers that reacts with some flammable chemicals, which causes a small fire, 'oh God, oh God, oh God, oh God, nonono'
"Quickly someone bring a fire extinguisher" the teacher shouts in the classroom
'come on, come on, come on, turn off, turn off, what?' this one sees that his hand is stuck to the table and he tries to move it 'oh God, no, not now' he rips off the board and leaves behind
A student with a fire extinguisher enters and puts out the fire "Oh God, thank goodness the fire didn't spread" Gwen whispers to herself
"psst, Gwen" she turns around without finding anyone, she turns around and someone else turns around her "Gwen!"
"what...? M-Miles?"
"yes!"
"w-where are you?" responds trying to see him "no... I don't see you"
"Yes, I know! I can't either!"
"Are you... Are you invisible? Or something?" he asks, touching her face to feel it
"I don't know, I have no idea, no..." he appears and says "I... I did it! I'm visible again!"
"yeah, that... I see that" Gwen says quite surprised "hey, now I think I'm probably going to miss this class, so... Do you want to talk about this in our room?"
In his room, "so you're like... Like a mutant? Or a... Like my dad says? A super human?" curious question
"no, I don't know, I was just in the hallways and I ran into a girl and she didn't even see me, that's when I realized that... I can make myself invisible, God, say it out loud. ...I look like a madman"
"yeah, but don't you think you have more powers or something? Like super strength or something? Maybe better stamina? Because after walking through the door like that, I'm surprised you can still go on standing"
"Yes, I was thinking about it too but... I'm not sure, but if there is something" he says putting a finger on his chin "I... I got stuck in the door of a locker and then in the living room table , and it was... Difficult to let go"
"Did you get stuck?" She thinks about it for a moment and says, "Don't you think... That you actually got stuck? Like... Like Spider-Man?" suggests Gwen
"like spider-man? Did you lose your... Head?" then it clicks in his head and he remembers the spider that bit him yesterday
"Gwen... A-some time ago, I read in the newspaper that Spider-Man had told a police officer that, when he was young, first of all, he was bitten by a spider, a special spider and That's how he got powers, and that's where his name came from."
"and-and you said... That yesterday you were bitten by a... A spider? No?" Complete Gwen
"yes, it was a spider, a very different spider, I hadn't seen one like that before... So, that could mean...."
They both look surprised and Miles looks at his hand, and walks towards the wall and puts his 2 hands and then his legs....
And in a moment he's stuck to the ceiling. "Oh no," Miles says scared.
"oh...my god!" Gwen shouts impressed
Miles falls from the ceiling and repeats "Oh no"
"oh no? Miles, this... This is great, you have powers, you're like spider-man, you're spider-man!" she says excitedly "you should try talking to him, maybe ask him to train you, you could..." Miles interrupts her
"no, no Gwen, y-you don't understand, this... It's bad, really bad"
Gwen looks at him confused and asks "what? What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'bad'?" Gwen asks "can you... You can help people, can you..." Miles interrupts her again
"no, no seriously, you don't understand, I... I don't want this! I DID NOT ask for this! I don't want to be spider-man! I-I don't want to do this to my parents, I just want to. .. I want to be normal, I want a normal life, I don't want to be a hero"
"but Miles..."
"no. No, Gwen, we can't talk about this again, please, just... Let's pretend this NEVER happened, okay?"
"but..." Miles interrupts her, pleading with her
"Gwen, PLEASE"
Gwen sighs and finally says "okay"
Oscorp
In a hidden laboratory, Dr. Oh shows some results to Dr. Warren "I... I'm sorry, but... The degeneration is accelerating, very fast and... I'm sorry, but without the regenerative abilities what could the spider give... I don't think that can survive much longer, maybe not more than 1 year, maybe... 10 months, at least"
Warren remains silent. A moment later he says "no, no, it can't end like this, I can't... End up like my father, no... I have to survive, dr ohn be it... Be it"
"Sir, aren't you suggesting that... Let's continue with... With the project?" he asks quite nervous
"no, I'm not suggesting it, I'm telling you to continue with the project, start today, am I clear?"
Ohn, quite nervous, answers "y-yes, yes sir"
"and make sure Wilson Fisk never sets foot here again"
Visións academy
"and thanks to daredevil the people managed to get out of there without deep wounds" says a journalist on television while Miles and Gwen watch her
"You could do something like that" says Gwen
"Aren't you ever going to stop with that?" asks Miles
"Who would win? You or daredevil?"
"daredevil" responds Miles
"You're so boring" Gwen answers
"Hello, Miles," Brent says behind them, "nothing interesting on TV?"
"no, hi brent. sorry I wasn't there for that whole student advisor thing, I've been a little busy says Miles"
"Gwen, do you think you could give me a few minutes to Miles, it will be brief"
Gwen answers "sure"
they both leave and continue with their conversation "I know the whole student advisor thing is weird, really, but you don't need me, you're much smarter than me, actually, I'm the one who should be asking you for help"
"last year you won the new visions creativity award" Miles replies and brent continues
"Not exactly, my mother was part of the judges. The only thing I gained is a last name and a trust fund"
"Yes, but...I won the lottery, literally, I have a place here, but other children don't...I don't feel that, you know, it's fair"
"well, my mom says that "when you get something you don't think you deserve, you have to work for it" they sit down and bren says "hey, look I have a cousin who directs music videos and he helped me get tickets to a new hypewar branch, limited edition clothing and tennis, I managed to get two tickets for you and Gwen"
Miles hesitates for a moment and says "hey, that's really nice, but... I shouldn't accept it, maybe you should ask Gwen..." Brent interrupts him
"come on, seriously, my sister, Olivia, just transferred to your class, she's a little... weird and doesn't know anyone and with this you would be doing me a favor, just pay me back by saying that I'm doing my part regarding the advisor"
"Well, well, you convinced me, I'll be there"
"Okay, I'll see you there" says Brent saying goodbye
Already at the store Miles and Gwen meet with Brent and his sister
"Miles, meet my sister, Olivia" Brent says pointing to her
"Hello, Miles" says Olivia "Brent has told me a lot about you"
"hello" Miles says greeting her with Gwen looking at him confused "you said she was weird"
"Oh, he did that? No?" she says looking angrily at brent
"Oh, uhh, Gwen, how about we see the one with... Marked clothes around here?" He says taking Gwen out of there, leaving them both alone
"My brother is trying to match us up, right?" says Olivia
"yeah, I guess so, sorry about that" Miles apologizes "
"Don't worry, he worries a lot about me when I spend a lot of time alone, and it's not the first time he's tried," Olivia answers.
"yeah, ehh... Not to play along but.... Don't you want to see some uhhh clothes?" says Miles nervously
"well?" Brent asks Gwen
"he... Uh, he's wearing it" Gwen answers with a frown
"Well, so far so good, if you like each other, maybe next month Miles and I will be family" Brent says excitedly
"yes..." Gwen says with a sad face
"wow, you're skinny but tough as a log, do you work out or something?" asks Olivia
"yeah, uhh, I play basketball sometimes at school" suddenly, his spider sense activates
"Miles? Is everything...?" Olivia is interrupted when Miles pushes her before someone blows up the wall
Daredevil falls unconscious with shocker on top of him "well? Anyone else want to get in my way? Shocker asks
"Oh... Oh God" says Miles "let's go, Gwen, let's go
Shocker explodes a wall sending them flying "Thousands, y-you have to do something, please" he says with tears of fear "no... I don't want to die
"ugh, hell, find Olivia and brent and get them out of here" This one grabs some ski goggles
Shocker was about to finish off Daredevil when someone says "uhh, Hey," he turns around and finds Miles with an improvised spider-man suit "if you don't have a ticket, you'll have to go back to the end of the line!"< /p>
Shocker launches a sonic wave that Miles manages to dodge "Wow!" He does somersaults and manages to dodge the shots
Ahcoker manages to shoot him and Miles flies away "boy, you better go home and play" says shocker "where did you go?"
Miles attacks him from behind and manages to knock him down, but Shocker attacks him again and he falls into a building "no... I can't"
"Aahhh!"
"Gwen?" Miles moves and sees Shocker holding Gwen "no... No, I have to do it, otherwise Gwen will get hurt, but, I'm just Miles... but now, I have to be spider-man, because I'm the one." only spider-man she has now"
Miles jumps and grabs shocker and pushes him away from Gwen by hitting him against a car "get out of here!" he yells at Gwen
These begin to fight Miles by kicking and punching him and launching shocker with sonic shots, Miles grabs his glove before he can shoot and destroys it, then grabs the engine and destroys it "bye-bye!" he says giving a final blow to shocker
'hey, that was pretty easy' he thinks as he leaves shocker tied up 'maybe... Maybe if I can.... Oh no, no'
In front of him, Olivia holds Brent, dead and injured "he... he's dead" Olivia whispers
"but... But, I don't..."
"he's dead!" Olivia yells at him "whoever you are, go away... Go away, please"
Miles leaves, leaving Olivia with her brother's body
Days later, in the cemetery, Olivia and her family bury Brent, funsod everyone leaves. Miles approaches her and says "Olivia... I... I'm sorry" she hugs him and Miles hugs her back< /p>
"You couldn't do anything, Miles," Olivia says as she walks away, "you have nothing to regret."
Miles is left alone crying looking at his friend's grave
'no... I... Not a hero... A hero always saves everyone... I... I'm not made for this'
Days later, in the shop in the school, Gwen and Miles are eating and Gwen asks "hey... Hmm, do you want to talk?"
Miles gives her a sad expression and Gwen doesn't say anything else. A moment later he takes her hand and they both eat in silence
