Chapter 40: Facing Sandman
(Queens, New York. October, 2015. Y/N's age: 18)
Y/N's P.O.V
Right now I'm out in the city as Spider-Man just watching over it.
Just then I get contacted by Ben.
Ben: Y/N, we've got a problem.
Y/N: It wouldn't be us if we didn't, what's up?
Ben: There's a bank robbery two blocks from you.
Y/N: Okay, I'm on it. Stay on standby, just in case.
Ben: Got it.
After that I swing around the corner and head to the bank.
Once I get there I land on a rooftop near the bank and hear the alarm going off.
The doors burst open and sand spills out of it.
The sand forms into Flint Marko a.k.a Sandman.
Y/N: Marko again. Really?
I jump off the rooftop and swing down to him.
Y/N: Marko, good to see you.
Sandman: Hey, Web-Head. I thought this would get your attention. Though I'm surprised you and your friends aren't dropping cities from the sky.
Y/N: You did this to see me? That's so sweet. I'm very flattered, I must say.
Sandman: Though I'm surprised you and your friends aren't dropping cities from the sky.
Y/N: Okay, we didn't do that. Ultron did that.
Marko swings at me, but I duck down and punch him in the chest.
My arm goes through him though and gets stuck.
Y/N: Ah, crap.
I look up and he hits me, it sends me flying back into a wall.
Y/N: Ow. That hurt.
Sandman: I'm made of sand, Web-Head. You can't beat me like that.
I look up and see a fire hydrate.
That's how I beat him.
Y/N: You're right. I can't.
He tries to crush me, but I jump into the air and land next to the fire hydrate.
Y/N: Hey, Sandman! I'm right here!
He turns and break open the fire hydrate and cause him to get hit by the water.
The water causes his body to start melting down.
Y/N: You're made out of sand, Marko. You should know that water is your weakness.
Before I can get to him he uses his sand form to go down into the sewers below the city.
Y/N: Damn it.
I look over and see the bags of money.
Sandman: Ah, my money!!
I chuckle.
After that I take the bags of money back to the bank.
The manager comes over to me.
Y/N: Here you go, sir. I think this belongs to the bank. Well, not really, but you get what I mean.
Manager: Thank you so much, Spider-Man.
Y/N: Anytime. Just doing my job.
I leave the bank and web zip away.
(Fifteen minutes later)
I make it back to the Spider Cave and come out of the elevator.
I see Ben and Kate at the monitor.
Y/N: Hey, guys.
They look at me.
Ben: Hey, man.
Kate: Hey. Great job taking down Sandman.
Ben: It was quick though.
Y/N: Yeah, it was. Marko isn't exactly the sharpest tool in the tool shed.
Ben: True.
Just then Kate got a text.
Kate: Oh, sorry, boys. I gotta go. Mum needs me.
She grabs her bag and walks to the elevator.
I walk over to her.
Y/N: You'll be back here later for training, right?
She smiles.
Kate: Definitely. Can't wait.
We hear Ben groan and we turn back to him.
Ben: Jesus Christ, guys. You're killing me here. Will you two just make-out already?
Y/N & Kate: Shut up, Ben.
We look at each other.
Y/N: I'll see you later.
Kate: Bye, Cowboy.
She turns and walks into the elevator.
After that I turn back to Ben.
Y/N: Why'd you say that?
I walk over to him.
Ben: Cause you two just need to make-out. You're clearly into each other. Why won't you just ask her out.
I sigh.
Y/N: I don't know. I mean there's never been a right time.
Ben: Bullshit. Just ask her out. You don't have to worry about her saying no.
Y/N: Yeah, maybe.
I get a text from my mum.
Y/N: Alright, I gotta get going. I told my mum I'd be home for a family dinner tonight. You can handle things in the city, yeah?
Ben: Yeah, I got it. Go have family fun time.
I chuckle.
Y/N: Okay. I better get changed.
I leave the room to change out of my suit.
Maybe Ben is right.
I should ask Kate out. I mean things have been calm, now might be the perfect time to do it.
(A/N: Sorry for the short chapter, everyone.)
