Chapter 22: The Loss of A Loved One

Y/N's P.O.V

I've made it to uncle Shane's place, but he's not here.

He must not be back in city yet. So, I sit down and write a note to him.

As I'm doing this I hear a bang on the fire escape.

Y/N: Oh, shit.

I look outside and see the Prowler coming towards the window.

I hide as he comes into the condo.

He looks around the place before stopping.

He talks to Fisk through an ear piece and takes off his mask.

It's uncle Shane. He's the Prowler.

I rush out of the window and make my way down the fire escape.

After that I run down the alleyway as the Prowler chases me.

I get out into the street and the Prowler comes out of nowhere to chase me on his bike.

I manage to get away from him due to a car crash.

I need to get back to Peter and the other's.

This is crazy.

(One hour later)

I make it back to Avengers Tower and rush into the lounge.

I see Peter, Gwen and the other's.

Pete turns to face me.

Y/N: Guys, my uncle...

Peter: Hey, where you been?

Y/N: My uncle Shane, he's... he's the Prowler. He works for Kingpin. He tried to kill me!

Peter: Hey, hey. Slow down.

Noir: This is a pretty hard-core origin story.

Y/N: Technically, I've already had my origin story.

Peter: Look, it's okay. We're gonna figure it out.

Gwen: Were you followed?

Y/N: No. I managed to lose him.

Just then all our spider senses go off.

We put our masks on and get ready to fight.

The door bursts open and Doc Ock cones in.

Doc Ock: You have a lovely tower here, Mr. Stark.

Peter: Great. Doc Ock.

Y/N: Ah, crap. I was followed.

Gwen: Oh no.

Peter: Get out of here, kid.

Before I can get out more of Fisk's men including Scorpion.

We all get backed up.

Peter: You guys are screwed. We're the Spider-Gang.

The fight starts and everyone is trying to keep ahold of the override key.

Scorpion swings his tail at me, but I drop down to avoid it.

Peni comes in and helps me out.

As the key flies through the air I catch it.

My spider sense goes off again.

Just then Prowler smashes through the window.

Pete takes the key from me.

Peter: I got this, buddy. Leave the kid alone!

He tackles Prowler and the two fight.

I manage to get ahold of the key again.

Pete smashes Shane through the wall.

Peter: You gotta go, man.

After that the fight is taken outside into the street below.

Prowler comes after me and we end up on the roof of a building near the tower.

He grabs me and drags me across the roof to the ledge.

Prowler: Give me the key, kid.

Y/N: Uncle Shane.... don't.

I pull up my mask, to show him my faces.

Prowler: Y/N?

Y/N: Uncle Shane.

He pulls off his mask.

Shane: No, no, no. Oh, no.

Y/N: Uncle Shane, don't.... please.

He gently pulls down my mask, he then pulls me forward and let's me go.

Just then a gunshot is fired and Shane falls backwards.

I look down and see that Kingpin shot him.

Before he can shoot me Tony comes in wearing his Iron-Man suit.

He kicks Fisk and knocks him away.

Tony: Go. Get out of here!

I grab Shane and manage to web swing away from the fight.

I take him to a nearby alleyway and put him down.

After that I take off my mask.

Y/N: No. Hold on, uncle Shane.

Shane: Y/N.

Y/N: I'm sorry. This is all my fault.

He holds my hand.

Shane: No, Y/N. I'm sorry. I wanted you to look up to me. I let you down, buddy. I let you down. I'm sorry.

I feel tears streaming down my face.

Shane: You... you're the best of all of us, Y/N. You're on your way. Just keep going. Just keep going for me.

He's hands slips away and he dies.

I start crying.

Just then I hear a voice. It's dad.

James: Freeze! NYPD! You're under arrest. Put your hands in the air!

I slowly stand and put my hands up.

I shoot out web lines and jump into the air to get away.

After leaving I hear my dad put an APB out on me.

(Fifteen minutes later)

I'm now back at home and I climb through my bedroom window.

I just let out all my angry and smash the room up.

I look at the floor and see my book, the one I draw in.

I pick it up and throw it out the window.

Just then it comes flying back at me.

I see Peter and the other's climb in through the window.

They comes over to me.

I wipe away the tears.

Peter: Hey, bud. You okay?

Pete puts his hand on my shoulder.

Peter: We've all been there, Y/N. For me, it was my uncle Ben.

Noir puts his hand on my shoulder.

Noir: For me, it was my uncle Benjamin.

Peni: For me, it was my father.

Gwen: For me, it my best friend.

Porker: Y/N, the hardest thing about this job is you can't always save everyone.

Y/N: My uncle Shane died, just like Peter did and it was my fault. Again. You wouldn't understand.

Gwen: Y/N, we're probably the only ones who do understand.

Just then we hear the door unlock.

We all jump onto the ceiling as Ollie walks in.

He reads a comic book as he moves around my room.

Peter: That way, that way.

He moves again.

Y/N: Other way, other way.

Oliver looks up and sees us.

Y/N: Hey, little brother.

Porker: Do animals talk in this dimension? I don't wanna freak him out.

Ollie passes out and falls back.

We then drop down and I put Ollie in my bed.

I turn to Peter and Gwen.

Y/N: What's going on?

Gwen: Bye, Y/N.

She leaves Peter and I.

Peter: Y/N, I came to say goodbye.

Y/N: We can say goodbye at the Collider.

Peter: You're not gettin' it. You're stayin' here.

Y/N: I need to be there, so you can all go home.

Peter: They are going home, kid. I'm stayin'

Y/N: You're taking my place? Pete, you stay here, you'll never get to go home.

Peter: I'm doing what needs to be done. I just wanted you to hear it from me.

Y/N: What about MJ?

He sighs.

Peter: Not everything works out, kid. I need the override key. Don't make me take it from you.

Y/N: That's bullshit! You gotta tell them I can do this.

Peter: It wasn't their decision.

Y/N: I gotta make Kingpin pay! He needs to pay!

Peter: Y/N, you're gonna get yourself killed.

Y/N: I can do this. I promise.

He knocks me off my feet and grabs me as he sticks to the ceiling.

Peter: Then Venom Blast right now, on command. Take me down to get past me. Get past that mental block.

I try to do it, but my powers won't work.

I feel a few small sparks, but that's it.

Peter: Look, I know how much you want this, kid.

He puts me down and drop to the floor.

Peter: But you don't have it right now.

Pete webs me to the chair to keep me here.

He then goes to the window.

Y/N: When will I know I'm truly meant to be Spider-Man?

Peter: You won't. It's a leap of faith. That's all it is, Y/N. A leap of faith.

He puts on his mask and web swings away with the other's.

I'm now all alone again.
